HHS said it would terminate Women’s Health Initiative, then reconsidered

Exploratory analyses of the POTOMAC phase III trial showed adding one year of treatment with AstraZeneca’s Imfinzi (durvalumab) to BCG induction and maintenance therapy reduced the number of high-risk disease recurrences within the first year, with fewer BCG-unresponsive recurrences in patients with BCG-naïve, high-risk non-muscle-invasive bladder cancer compared to BCG treatment alone.

High-level results from a planned interim analysis of the VOLGA phase III trial showed perioperative treatment with Imfinzi (durvalumab) in combination with neoadjuvant enfortumab vedotin demonstrated statistically significant and clinically meaningful improvements in event-free survival and overall survival in patients with muscle-invasive bladder cancer versus standard of care.
