Dose-dense paclitaxel and novel combination maintenance therapies offer survival benefits in advanced ovarian cancer
Positive results are reported from the FZOCUS-1 and ICON8B studies
How therapeutically tractable is MUC1 as a tumour-associated antigen?
Early proof-of-concept is provided showing pan-tumour activity of a novel antibody–drug conjugate
Analysis identifies proteins VISTA and VEGF-A as prognostic of poor survival in recurrent ovarian cancer
High expression of specific immune-oncology proteins may have utility in identifying high-risk patients to inform future trial design
Survival benefits demonstrated with immunochemotherapy in platinum-resistant ovarian cancer
The ENGOT-ov65/KEYNOTE-B96 trial reported small but clinically relevant progression-free survival increments and significantly improved overall survival in platinum-resistant ovarian cancer
Machine learning approach identifies the enzyme MMP2 as a key target for drug repurposing in advanced cervical cancer
Additional treatment targets and potentially repurposable agents were identified based on chemoradiotherapy response, which could now be explored for further validation.
Challenging ageism in gynaecological cancers
Recent research indicates that older age remains a barrier to accessing optimal treatment, despite a growing number of patients over 70 with ovarian and endometrial tumours
Data show that mirvetuximab soravtansine-gynx improves outcomes regardless of HRD status
Final analyses of the PICCOLO trial confirm the efficacy of the antibody–drug conjugate in recurrent platinum-sensitive ovarian cancer
Atezolizumab added to chemotherapy and bevacizumab is effective regardless of PD-L1 status in untreated recurrent and metastatic cervical cancer
An analysis of the BEATcc trial showed that PD-L1 is not a robust biomarker for response to treatment
Relacorilant added to nab-paclitaxel prolongs progression-free survival in platinum-resistant ovarian cancer
The ROSELLA trial highlights the efficacy and tolerability of the combination even in patients with a poorer prognosis
An analysis reveals distinct patterns of expression of antibody–drug conjugate targets in high-grade serous ovarian cancer
A small Japanese study provides useful insights on determining the role of these agents in cancer care, but studies in larger, more diverse populations are needed
