Divarasib monotherapy improves OS in previously-treated KRAS G12C-mutated lung cancer, phase III trial finds

Divarasib, a next-generation KRAS G12C inhibitor, lowered the risk of disease progression or death by 42% and the overall risk of death by 44% in people with previously treated KRAS G12C-mutated non-small cell lung cancer, according to the results from the phase III Krascendo 1 study. The therapy demonstrated the superior efficacy compared with current standard of care KRAS G12C inhibitors.

Perioperative Imfinzi + Padcev improves EFS, OS, in MIBC, phase III trial finds

Perioperative Imfinzi (durvalumab) plus neoadjuvant Padcev (enfortumab vedotin) reduced risk of recurrence by 49% and risk of death by 42% in muscle-invasive bladder cancer, according to the VOLGA phase III trial. The combination demonstrated statistically significant and clinically meaningful improvements in the primary endpoint of event-free survival and key secondary endpoint of overall survival in patients with muscle-invasive bladder cancer versus standard of care.
