LAURA Ph 3: Osimertinib vs Placebo #ASCO24@ASCO
➡️ mPFS: 39.1 vs 5.6 mo (HR 0.16) ‼️
➡️ 24-mo PFS: 65% vs 13% 📈
➡️ 81% received osi at progression 💊, Good!
➡️AE discontinuation**: 13% vs 5% ⚠️
Can't wait for @RamalingamMD's presentation today! �� #ASCO24 @OncoAlert Data courtesy: @FordePatrick’s tweet! @OncoAlert
Among patients with cancers bearing the KRAS G12C mutation who received divarasib at a 400-mg dose, 56% with lung cancer, 36% with colorectal cancer, and 36% with other tumor types had a confirmed response.

Both T-DXd and SG are approved for patients with HER2-low TNBC. But which one has the strongest data in support? Which one should be utilized first? Find the answer in our latest letter to the editor, now published on @Annals_Oncology. @curijoey@stolaney1 https://t.co/KqE0aC8FcL
Let's be clear: OS results are neg for OS benefit in PD-L1+ NSCLC. If we're going to rely on smaller subgroups to highlight the HR of 0.43 for those w/high PD-L1, we should also note HR for OS was 0.95 (i.e., NO trend of OS benefit) for those w/PD-L1 1-49%.
As w/KN-042.
With favorable results driven entirely by a 30% subgroup, it's understandable that Roche would want to also promote benefit in broader population. But we shouldn't perpetuate misinformation that there's a benefit for broad group of PD-L1+, even if the effort is to market it this way.
Dato-DXd led to a statistically significant improvement of PFS vs docetaxel for patients with locally advanced or metastatic #NSCLC who received at least 1 prior therapy in the TROPION-Lung01 phase 3 trial. #lcsm

CheckMate 722: an highly anticipated randomized trial that compared chemo nivo to chemo in EGFR + NSCLC resistant to TKI.
No efficacy signal despite underpowered, no convincing PD L1 selection data.
The end of chemo IO in this setting?

Update on #drugshortages: @US_FDA just announced it will temporarily import cisplatin. This is an impt first step toward alleviating the critical #drugshortage and ensuring clinicians can deliver the best cancer care possible. Check https://t.co/mPWChjj3yy for the latest info.
Some people say “nobody wants chemo” as if they’ve found the Achilles heel of medical oncology.
Right. Nobody *wants* chemo.
But the truth is that many patients *need* chemo which is in very short supply.
Kudos to @doctormb1 for calling attention to drug shortages at #asco23👇🏻
Presented at #ASCO23: In the KEYNOTE-671 trial, pts with resectable lung cancer were assigned to neoadjuvant pembrolizumab or placebo plus chemotherapy followed by adjuvant pembrolizumab or placebo. Two-year event-free survival was 62.4% with pembrolizumab & 40.6% with placebo.
