Researchers from University of Pittsburgh and Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis found that liquid from surgical drains, which is usually tossed in the trash, could inform more precise treatments for patients with head and neck cancer caused by human papillomavirus.Â
In a planned analysis of Part 2 of the RUBY/ENGOT-EN6/GOG3031/NSGO phase III trial investigating Jemperli (dostarlimab) plus standard-of-care chemotherapy (carboplatin and paclitaxel), followed by dostarlimab plus Zejula (niraparib) as maintenance therapy, in adult patients with primary advanced or recurrent endometrial cancer, the trial met its primary endpoint of progression-free survival.
The phase III INAVO120 study evaluating inavolisib in combination with palbociclib (Ibrance) and fulvestrant as a first-line treatment for people with PIK3CA-mutated, hormone receptor (HR)-positive, HER2-negative, endocrine-resistant, locally advanced or metastatic breast cancer, demonstrated positive results.
The phase III KATHERINE study in people with HER2-positive early-stage breast cancer (eBC) who have residual invasive disease following neoadjuvant (before surgery) treatment demonstrated positive long-term follow-up data.Â
Merck and Moderna Inc. have initiated the phase III randomized INTerpath-002 trial evaluating V940 (mRNA-4157), an investigational individualized neoantigen therapy (INT), in combination with Keytruda as adjuvant treatment in patients with completely resected (R0) Stage II, IIIA or IIIB (with nodal involvement [N2]) non-small cell lung cancer.Â
Researchers at the Center for Cell and Gene Therapy at Baylor College of Medicine, Texas Children’s Hospital and Houston Methodist Hospital have developed a chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T-cell therapy targeting T-cell lymphoma, an aggressive and difficult to treat cancer.Â
Mainz Biomed N.V.’s eAArly DETECT study produced positive topline results.Â
Long-term follow-up data from the phase III KATHERINE study in people with HER2-positive early-stage breast cancer who have residual invasive disease following neoadjuvant treatment showed that a statistically significant and clinically meaningful improvement in overall survival, a secondary endpoint, was observed with adjuvant Kadcyla (ado-trastuzumab emtansine) compared to Herceptin (trastuzumab).
The phase III INAVO120 study evaluating inavolisib in combination with palbociclib (Ibrance) and fulvestrant (Faslodex) as a first-line treatment for people with PIK3CA-mutated, hormone receptor-positive, HER2-negative, endocrine-resistant, locally advanced or metastatic breast cancer showed positive results.Â
Data from the phase III PERSEUS study showed that a Darzalex Faspro (daratumumab and hyaluronidase-fihj)-based quadruplet induction, consolidation regimen and doublet maintenance regimen showed clinical improvement in the treatment of transplant-eligible newly diagnosed multiple myeloma.Â
