Disitamab Vedotin Shows Strong Activity in Advanced Urothelial Cancer Across HER2 Levels

The Phase 2 RC48G001 study evaluated disitamab vedotin in patients with advanced urothelial (bladder) cancer. Disitamab vedotin is an antibody-drug conjugate that targets the HER2 protein on cancer cells. After attaching to HER2, it enters the cell and releases a chemotherapy drug (MMAE) that kills the cancer cell from inside. The study included patients with […]

EV Plus Pembrolizumab Outperforms Standard Chemotherapy in Muscle-Invasive Bladder Cancer Trial

The Phase 3 KEYNOTE-B15/EV-304 trial compared a new treatment combination with standard cisplatin-based chemotherapy for patients with muscle-invasive bladder cancer (MIBC). For the first time in 25 years, a non-platinum regimen performed better than the usual cisplatin plus gemcitabine treatment. Patients received either enfortumab vedotin (EV) plus pembrolizumab before and after surgery, or cisplatin plus

Pluvicto Triplet Therapy Improves Disease Control Without Long-Term Quality-of-Life Impact in mHSPC

The Phase 3 PSMAddition study tested whether adding lutetium Lu 177 vipivotide tetraxetan (Pluvicto) to standard treatment improves outcomes for patients with metastatic hormone-sensitive prostate cancer (mHSPC). Patients received either standard therapy with androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) plus an androgen receptor pathway inhibitor (ARPI), or the same treatment plus up to six cycles of Pluvicto.

New CRISPR Tool Identifies Genetic Drivers of AML Using Patient Cells

Researchers at Penn Medicine and the Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia have developed a new CRISPR tool that can identify the genetic drivers of acute myeloid leukemia (AML) by editing patient cells directly. Unlike traditional lab-grown cell studies, this approach uses real patient samples, capturing the complexity and diversity of actual cancers. The tool efficiently edits

BRCAAway Trial Shows Triple Therapy Dramatically Extends Survival in BRCA-Mutated Prostate Cancer

The Phase 2 BRCAAway trial shows that combining abiraterone, prednisone, and olaparib is far more effective than using either drug alone for patients with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer who have BRCA1/2 or ATM mutations. Patients receiving the three-drug combination lived a median of 68 months—over five years—compared with 28 months for abiraterone alone and 37

Selinexor Dosing Shift: Lower, Longer Treatment Improves Outcomes in Multiple Myeloma

Treatment with selinexor (Xpovio) for relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma is moving toward lower, more tolerable dosing. “Less is often more,” focusing on keeping patients on therapy longer rather than using high doses that cause more side effects. Instead of the older high-dose schedule of 80 mg twice weekly, doctors now favor a lower weekly

PEACE-3 Trial Confirms Radium-223 Plus Enzalutamide Extends Survival in Bone-Metastatic mCRPC

Final results show that combining radium-223 (Xofigo) with enzalutamide (Xtandi) helps patients with bone-predominant metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer live longer than treatment with enzalutamide alone. Patients who received the combination lived a median of 38.2 months, compared with 32.6 months for those on enzalutamide alone. The combination also delayed visible tumor growth on scans, extending

BRCAAway Trial Shows Triple Therapy Extends Survival Beyond 5 Years in BRCA-Mutated mCRPC

New data from the Phase 2 BRCAAway trial presented at the 2026 Genitourinary Cancers Symposium show that combining abiraterone, prednisone, and olaparib provides major benefits for patients with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer who carry BRCA1/2 or ATM mutations. The three-drug combination significantly outperformed either abiraterone or olaparib alone. Patients receiving the combination had a progression-free

Study Shows Laser Therapy Opens Blood-Brain Barrier, Boosts Immunotherapy Survival in Recurrent Astrocytoma

Researchers have found a new way to help immunotherapy work better for patients with aggressive, recurrent high-grade astrocytoma, a serious type of brain cancer. One of the biggest challenges in treating brain tumors is the blood-brain barrier. This natural protective barrier prevents many drugs and immune cells from entering the brain, including treatments designed to

Continuous Subcutaneous Lenalidomide Enters Phase 2a Trial for Relapsed Multiple Myeloma

Starton Therapeutics has treated the first patient in a Phase 2a study (NCT06087653) testing STAR-LLD, a new continuous under-the-skin (subcutaneous) form of lenalidomide, for people with relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma. Lenalidomide, sold as Revlimid, is commonly taken by mouth and is a standard treatment for multiple myeloma. However, when taken orally, the drug reaches
