A study led by UCLA Health Jonsson Comprehensive Cancer Center researchers found that using a combination of experimental immunotherapy drugs with chemotherapy significantly improves progression-free survival and overall survival for patients with metastatic colorectal cancer who have previously undergone standard chemotherapy treatment when compared to those who received the targeted therapy regorafenib alone. The work will be presented at the 2024 ASCO Annual Meeting.
Alessio Pigazzi was appointed executive medical director of colorectal surgery at City of Hope Orange County.
