ClinicalTrials & Tribulations

The NHS-Galleri trial has and will continue to provide critical insights to refine future MCED studies

The NHS-Galleri trial presented at ASCO was the largest, prospective, randomized trial of a multicancer early detection test (MCED) to date. The study enrolled approximately 143,000 asymptomatic adults (ages 50-77) and was the first of its kind to assess clinical utility of an MCED test for cancer screening.

Talvey + Darzalez Faspro shows significant survival gains in r/r MM, phase III MonumenTAL-3 study finds

Talvey (talquetamab-tgvs), a GPRC5D bispecific antibody, in combination with Darzalez Faspro (daratumumab and hyaluronidase-fihj) with or without pomalidomide demonstrated significant reduction in the risk of disease progression or death of up to 72% and clinically meaningful reduction of up to 53% in the risk of death compared to the standard regimen of Darzalez Faspro, pomalidomide, and dexamethasone in patients with relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma, according to the results of the investigational phase III MonumenTAL-3 study.

Jaypirca + venetolax + rituximab reduced the risk of disease progression or death by 45% in r/r CLL/SLL, phase III BRUIN CLL-322 trial finds

Jaypirca (pirtobrutinib), a non-covalent Bruton tyrosine kinase inhibitor, plus a two-year venetoclax and rituximab regimen versus venetoclax and rituximab in patients with relapsed or refractory chronic lymphocytic leukemia or small lymphocytic lymphoma reduced the risk of disease progression or death by 45% (HR=0.55 [95% CI, 0.40-0.75]; p=0.0001), according to the results of the phase III BRUIN CLL-322 trial. The study met its primary endpoint of independent review committee-assessed progression-free survival.
