Dostarlimab Continues to Show Strong Results in Locally Advanced Rectal Cancer

Treatment /

The phase 2 AZUR-1 trial has met its main goal, showing that dostarlimab (Jemperli) alone can produce a lasting complete response in patients with stage II/III dMMR/MSI-H locally advanced rectal cancer. An interim analysis found that many patients had no detectable signs of cancer 12 months or longer after starting treatment. The results suggest that

Researchers Discover New Pathway That Fuels Cancer Growth

Research Advances /

Researchers have identified a new metabolic pathway that helps cancer cells grow and spread. The study, published in Nature Communications, reveals how changes in cell metabolism can directly activate genes that drive tumor progression. The team found that under stress, two mitochondrial enzymes, ACO2 and IDH2, move into the cell nucleus and produce acetyl CoA.

Ateganosine Plus Cemiplimab Shows Promising Activity in Advanced Lung Cancer

Clinical Trails /

Interim results from the phase 2 THIO-101 trial show that the investigational drug ateganosine (THIO), followed by the PD-1 inhibitor cemiplimab (Libtayo), achieved a 90.5% disease control rate in heavily pretreated patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Among 21 patients evaluated, 19 experienced either a complete response, partial response, or stable disease. This

Zoldonrasib Combinations Show Strong Early Results in RAS G12D Pancreatic Cancer

Treatment /

New data show that zoldonrasib (RMC-9805), an oral RAS G12D-targeted therapy, produced promising results in patients with metastatic pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) carrying a RAS G12D mutation. In previously untreated patients, zoldonrasib combined with modified FOLFIRINOX achieved an objective response rate of 82%, while the combination with gemcitabine plus nab-paclitaxel reached 61%. Disease control rates

Updated Analysis Suggests DCVax-L Offers Greater Survival Benefit in Glioblastoma

Treatment /

New data suggest that the survival benefit of DCVax-L for patients with glioblastoma (GBM) is greater than previously reported. The original phase 3 analysis showed that DCVax-L improved median overall survival by 2.8 months. However, a new analysis using individual patient data from three randomized clinical trials found that the actual survival benefit ranged from

Ensartinib Significantly Reduces Recurrence Risk in ALK-Positive Lung Cancer After Surgery

Treatment /

Results from the phase 3 ELEVATE trial show that ensartinib (Ensacove) significantly reduced the risk of cancer recurrence in patients with completely resected stage IB to IIIB ALK-positive non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) after chemotherapy. Among patients with stage II to IIIB disease, the 24-month disease-free survival (DFS) rate was 86.4% with ensartinib, compared with
