Abstract

The article reports on the results of the 3 EMPOWER-Lung 3 study that were presented at the 2023 European Society for Medical Oncology Congress, showing that cemiplimab plus chemotherapy showed better favorable survival benefits and patient-reported outcomes (PRO) in patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Also cited are the median overall survival (OS), objective response rate (ORR), and progression-free survival (PFS) study results.

2. Induction Chemotherapy Prior to Chemoradiation Represents Potential New SOC in Locally Advanced Cervical Cancer.

Author

Ryan, Chris

Subjects
*THERAPEUTIC use of antineoplastic agents, *DISEASE progression, *CARBOPLATIN, *CHEMORADIOTHERAPY, *PROGRESSION-free survival, *PACLITAXEL, *INDUCTION chemotherapy, *OVERALL survival, CERVIX uteri tumors
Abstract

The article reports on the results of the phase 3 INTERLACE trial showing that induction chemotherapy followed by chemoradiation lowered by 35% the risk of disease progression or death as compared to chemoradiation alone in patients with locally advanced cervical cancer. According to lead study author Mary McCormack, induction chemotherapy with paclitaxel and carboplatin should be considered as a standard treatment.

*THERAPEUTIC use of antineoplastic agents, *DOCETAXEL, *ANTIANDROGENS, *CASTRATION-resistant prostate cancer, *PLACEBOS, *PROSTATE tumors, *TREATMENT effectiveness, *METASTASIS, *DISEASE progression, *OVERALL survival
Abstract

The article focuses on the results of the phase three ARASENS trial on the effectiveness of darolutamide as a treatment in patients with metastatic hormone-sensitive prostate cancer, which were presented at the 2024 American Society of Clinical Oncology Annual Meeting held in Chicago, Illinois. Topics discussed include the improvementin the overall survival and delay time to progression to metastatic castration-resistant disease, and the definition of postprogression survival.

Abstract

The article focuses on a news release from AstraZeneca on the results of the phase three NIAGARA trial, which shows the effectiveness of the combination of durvalumab and chemotherapy in improving event-free survival and overall survival in patients with muscle-invasive bladder cancer. Topics discussed include the safety of durvalumab in the trial, and the selection of the participants.

5. Blue light cystoscopy decreases risk of recurrence, progression in NMIBC.

Author

CLARKE, HANNAH

Subjects
*NON-muscle invasive bladder cancer, *CYSTOSCOPY, *EARLY detection of cancer, *DISEASE relapse, *PROGRESSION-free survival, *DISEASE progression, *OVERALL survival
Abstract

The article discusses 2024 data which showed that blue light cystoscopy (BLC) is linked to improved outcomes in patients with non-muscle-invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC) compared to white light cystoscopy (WLC). Topics covered include the comparatively lower recurrence risk and progression risk for patients following BLC, and the latter's improved overall survival. Also noted is improved tumor visualization's help in determining intravesical therapy use, such as Bacillus Calmette-Guerin (BCG).

COOKSON, MICHAEL S.

Subjects
*PROSTATE tumors treatment, *DISEASE progression, *ANTIANDROGENS, *INDIVIDUALIZED medicine, *TREATMENT effectiveness, *RISK assessment, *ADVERSE health care events, *DISEASE management, *PROSTATE tumors, *OVERALL survival
Abstract

In the article, the author discusses updates in the treatment of patients with advanced and metastatic prostate cancer, particularly the clinical trials showing the efficacy of treatment deintensification in the proper clinical context. Other topics include the potential benefits of deintensification like reduction of treatment-related adverse events (TRAE) and the various deintensification methods like radiation therapy with omission of androgen deprivation therapy (ADT).

7. Allogeneic Stem Cell Transplant Shows Minimal OS, PFS Benefits in Patients With MM.

Author

McNulty, Rose

Subjects
*MULTIPLE myeloma treatment, *DISEASE progression, *BONE marrow transplantation, *TREATMENT effectiveness, *PROGRESSION-free survival, *OVERALL survival
Abstract

The article discusses research that shows allogeneic stem cell transplant (allo-SCT) may not significantly benefit most patients with multiple myeloma. It considers the overall survival and progression-free survival after allo-SCT. The feasibility of alternatives such as CAR T-cell or bispecific T-cell engager therapies is suggested. The findings were presented at the 64th American Society of Hematology Annual Meeting and Exposition in New Orleans, Louisiana.
