New results uphold previous findings regarding the efficacy of cabozantinib, nivolumab, and ipilumumab arm for advanced renal cell carcinoma.

Patients with advanced RCC who were treated with nivolumab plus cabozantinib had a median PFS of 16.4 months compared with 8.3 months from sunitinib alone.

Men with intermediate-risk prostate cancer and high PSA levels before HIFU treatment had a greater risk of both overall recurrence and treatment failure.

Enfortumab vedotin alone and in combination with pembrolizumab showed promise in patients with upper tract urothelial carcinoma, particularly those ineligible for standard chemotherapy.

Real-world data demonstrate significant outcome improvements with enfortumab vedotin in patients with unresectable or metastatic urothelial carcinoma.

Patients with metastatic hormone-sensitive prostate cancer experienced increase rPFS and other efficacy end points with darolutamide plus ADT.

Improved progression-free survival in metastatic urothelial carcinoma was observed in patients experiencing neuropathy, skin rash, and hyperglycemia following enfortumab vedotin.

Increase in QOL and decrease in sexual function are among the benefits and risks, respectively, of adding SADT to EBRT for intermediate-risk prostate cancer.

Findings also suggested that an up-front dose reduction of enfortumab vedotin may benefit older patients with urothelial carcinoma.

While lower relative dose intensity of docetaxel was associated with higher rates of G-CSF use and more adverse events, discontinuation rates were low across all groups.

Patients with mCRPC taking LuPSMA had a median OS of 34 months vs 26 months with enzalutamide alone.

With delays in biomarker testing and treatment for metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer, continued education is needed to address these gaps.

Patients with HRR-deficient metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer saw a 14-month boost in OS and a 38% lower risk of death with talazoparib plus enzalutamide.

Sintilimab with neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy enhanced pCR rates in resectable, locally advanced esophageal squamous cell carcinoma.

The combination of tislelizumab, irinotecan, paclitaxel, oxaliplatin, and 5-FU/leucovorin demonstrated promising efficacy and manageable safety in gastric and GEJ cancers.

The addition of trastuzumab and pertuzumab to chemotherapy was associated with increased toxicity in patients with HER2-positive gastric cancers enrolled in the INNOVATION trial.

Managing weight loss with telotristat ethyl in patients with metastatic pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma may improve survival, although further research is needed.

Phone calls to follow up with patients with locally advanced esophageal squamous cell carcinoma while at home may reduce AEs like stomatitis before the first outpatient clinic visit.

Phase 2 findings show clinical responses and improved survival with evorpacept in patients with HER2-positive gastric/gastroesophageal cancer.

While ctDNA positivity was linked to worse overall disease-free survival (DFS) in stage III resected colon cancer, it was associated with significantly improved DFS with celecoxib compared to placebo.

The phase 2 FDZL-001 trial showed high overall survival and progression-free survival rates with camrelizumab plus Nab-POF in patients with gastric/GEJ cancer.

The EA2186 trial was the first study specifically designed to test chemotherapy in older adults with advanced pancreatic cancer who were considered vulnerable.

Analysis of the NAPOLI 3 trial showed that lower doses of liposomal irinotecan or oxaliplatin did not reduce survival in patients with pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma.

Susumu Hijioka, MD, discussed how a lower dose of everolimus may help address certain adverse events like oral mucositis and hypoglycemia.

The 2-year benefit of bevacizumab in colorectal cancer may explain why survival benefits are seen in studies with two-year, but not longer, follow-ups.

First-line nivolumab plus ipilimumab was shown to be effective and well-tolerated in patients with unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma in the CheckMate 9DW study.

Aspirin reduced disease recurrence in patients with PI3K-mutated colorectal cancer, underscoring the value of early genomic testing.

Cabozantinib prolonged PFS compared to placebo for patients with extrapancreatic NETs starting in the GI tract in a subgroup analysis of the CABINET trial.
