Real-World Data Support First-Line Avelumab Plus Axitinib in Advanced RCC
Real-world data confirmed the findings of JAVELIN Renal 101, supporting the combination of avelumab and axitinib in advanced renal cell carcinoma (RCC), said Axel Merseburger, MD, University Hospital Schleswig Holstein, Campus Lübeck, in Germany.
Frontline Serplulimab Plus Chemo Provides Consistent Survival Benefit in Squamous NSCLC
The addition of serplulimab to carboplatin and nab-paclitaxel significantly prolonged survival vs chemotherapy alone when used in the first-line treatment of patients with previously untreated locally advanced or metastatic squamous non–small cell lung cancer.
Olaparib Does Not Improve OS vs Chemo in Recurrent Platinum-Sensitive Ovarian Cancer
The use of olaparib as a monotherapy or in combination with cediranib did not provide a statistically significance overall survival (OS) benefit compared with standard of care platinum-based chemotherapy in patients with recurrent, platinum-sensitive ovarian cancer.
Postoperative ctDNA Status May Prognosticate DFS Outcomes in Resected CRC
Postoperative circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA)–based minimal residual disease status demonstrated prognostic value for patients with stage 1 to 4 resected colorectal cancer, showing that those with positive ctDNA after surgery have significantly lower disease-free survival outcomes at 24 months vs those who were ctDNA negative.
Cilta-Cel Leads to High PFS Rates in Patients With Multiple Myeloma and Poor Prognostic Features
Patients with multiple myeloma exhibiting poor prognostic features, such as high-risk cytogenetics, soft-tissue plasmacytoma, ISS stage III disease, and triple-class exposure, experienced significant progression-free survival benefit with ciltacabtagene autoleucel.
