Researchers at Moffitt Cancer Center have been awarded a $22.4 million grant from the U.S. Department of War to lead studies and clinical trials for leptomeningeal disease, a devastating complication of breast and other cancers that spreads to the coverings of the brain and spinal cord.
Longer follow-up results from the investigational phase Ib/II OrigAMI-1 study evaluating amivantamab-vmjw, a bispecific antibody targeting epidermal growth factor receptor and MET, in combination with FOLFOX or FOLFIRI chemotherapy in patients with RAS/BRAF wild-type metastatic colorectal cancer were presented during a poster session at the 2026 American Society of Clinical Oncology Gastrointestinal Cancers Symposium.
