Martha Raymond Provides an Overview of the Colon Cancer Alliance

Neoadjuvant pembrolizumab elicited high clinical activity in patients with mismatch repair deficiency/microsatellite instability high solid tumors and was well tolerated.

In this episode of The Vitals, we recount the oncology drugs that received FDA approvals in 2022.

Encorafenib plus cetuximab, along with chemotherapy, was linked to antitumor activity and a manageable safety profile in patients with BRAF V600E-mutant metastatic colorectal cancer.

In this episode of “The Vitals,” Christine Miaskowski, PhD, RN, discusses research showcasing that adult patients receiving either a platinum-based chemotherapy, taxane alone, or a combined regimen of platinum- and taxane-based treatment may be at risk of hearing loss.

Findings from the phase 3 SUNLIGHT study showed that adding bevacizumab to trifluridine/tipiracil boosted overall survival in metastatic colorectal cancer.

The median overall survival with frontline liposomal irinotecan/NALIRIFOX was 11.1 months vs 9.2 months with nab-paclitaxel plus gemcitabine in patients with metastatic pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma.
