Updated results from the HIMALAYA phase III trial showed AstraZeneca’s Imfinzi (durvalumab) plus Imjudo (tremelimumab-actl) demonstrated a sustained, clinically meaningful overall survival benefit at five years for patients with unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma who had not received prior systemic therapy and were not eligible for localized treatment.
Results from a large phase III clinical trial show that treatment with Keytruda (pembrolizumab) may nearly double the length of time people with high-risk muscle-invasive bladder cancer are cancer-free following surgical removal of the bladder.
Follow-up data from the phase IIb randomized KEYNOTE-942/mRNA-4157-P201 study, a clinical trial evaluating mRNA-4157 (V940), an investigational individualized neoantigen therapy, in combination with Keytruda in patients with resected high-risk melanoma (stage 3/4) following complete resection.
Updated results from the phase III MARIPOSA-2 study showed Rybrevant (amivantamab-vmjw) combined with chemotherapy led to consistent benefit across post-progression outcomes in adult patients with previously treated NSCLC with epidermal growth factor receptor exon 19 deletions or L858R substitution mutations.
Ten-year follow-up data from CheckMate-067, a randomized, double-blind, phase III clinical trial showed continued durable improvement in survival with first-line Opdivo (nivolumab) plus Yervoy (ipilimumab) therapy and Opdivo monotherapy, versus Yervoy alone, in patients with previously untreated advanced or metastatic melanoma.
Data from the phase I/II study of Rina-S (rinatabart sesutecan), an investigational folate receptor-alpha-targeted, Topo1 antibody-drug conjugate, demonstrated a confirmed objective response rate of 50.0% (95% CI) in ovarian cancer patients treated with Rina-S 120 mg/m2 once every three weeks, regardless of FRα expression levels.
The NRG Oncology NSABP B-39/RTOG 0413 clinical trial compared whole-breast irradiation to accelerated partial-breast irradiation and determined that APBI was not statistically equivalent to WBI in local tumor control. The secondary outcome for the trial was quality-of-life.
Investigators at UC Davis Comprehensive Cancer Center and UCLA Health’s Jonsson Comprehensive Cancer Center report they have manipulated mesenchymal stem cells to create four different sarcoma models.
Treatment with a combination of haloperidol and lorazepam reduced symptoms of agitated delirium, a common end-of-life condition for patients with advanced cancers, compared with haloperidol alone, according to a study led by researchers at The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center.
