This week on Spotify I discuss the rapidly evolving gyn onc therapeutic landscape, providing a recap on ADC approvals, new PARPi data, and exciting frontline IO results! Episode available here: https://t.co/KNNXvny47s #gyncsm#ovariancancer#cervicalcancer#endometrialcancer
Interstitial Cystitis / Bladder Pain Syndrome is devastating and can be very challenging to treat.
We were so fortunate to have world-renown expert on #icbps Dr Robert M Moldwin @SmithInstUro speak to us about tailoring tx by phenotype & advancing the paradigm.
👏 👏
Honored to contribute to the conversation on reproductive medicine in the military with @eadashi in @FertStert. Infertility among those who serve for our country deserves the same clinical rigor and policy attention we give other health crises. #TRICARE https://t.co/L8sHukfsas
Attending @BrownMedicine#AMS_CRJC led today by medical students Ege Gungor Onal, @AllegraRollo, and Valeria Brown
Presentations by medical student Jacob Licht on pioneer factors like Brn2 that he got interested in during two years of research at @theNCI in the Yawen Bai Lab
Good review: “Pioneer factors: roles and their regulation in development”

Allegra gave an interesting presentation about pharma R&D relationships with drug costs

Presentation by Valeria Brown on TAp63 represses transcription of MYCN/NCYM gene and its high levels of expression are associated with favorable outcome in neuroblastoma
https://t.co/xRl2ODW7aq
Learning about NCYM and MYCN regulation by TAp63, trying to understand how this repression works as well as ATRA effects. Some interesting findings with significant limitations. Great discussions about TMZ and p63 and combos in different tumor types.

Incredible seeing positive topline results for DUO-O, the first IO + PARPi trial to readout in #ovariancancer! Will be interesting to compare efficacy in durvalumab + olaparib vs. durva arms - what will be magnitude of benefit of IO + PARPi, given past IO failures in OC? #gyncsm
Amazing to see GY018 and RUBY change SOC in #endometrialcancer! Comparable dMMR PFS data. Keep in mind... RUBY not powered for pMMR PFS. GY018 tx given for 21 mos., RUBY tx for 3 yrs. GY018 larger n size. RUBY great OS ITT data (not yet stat signif)... Incredible! #SGOMtg#gyncsm
After neoadjuvant talazoparib results in BRCAm BC (Litton J.K. 2017), neoadjuvant olaparib in #ovariancancer (with mutation in BRCA1/2, RAD51C/D, or PALB2) by @ShannonWestin shows outstanding surgical outcomes after only 2 cycles of olaparib, even in Stage IV pts #SGOMTG#SGO2023
Check out my latest white paper on the amazing therapeutic advances that gyn onc saw in 2022, from PARPi data and the accelerated approval of the first ADC in #ovariancancer to impressive IO + chemo results from the RUBY trial in #endometrialcancer#gyncsm https://t.co/CvfWBkgktZ
Citing examples from metastatic melanoma, chronic myeloid leukemia, and ovarian cancer, an interesting article from @DrMaurieMarkman on how Overall Survival is an important but not always straightforward endpoint in randomized #oncology trials https://t.co/2ld7eyBrJV #gyncsm
Discussant: OS in NORA, NOVA, ARIEL-3 should be taken as exploratory endpt. PFS, PFS2, & TSST are sufficient for clinical decisions + support use of PARPi in 2L maint. regardless of BRCA status. EMA views OS results holistically + will not restrict 2L maint. PARPi labels #gyncsm
Analysis of NORA (APAC) conducted at 44% maturity showed that ISD of niraparib maint. in PSOC led to favorable OS trends across ITT, BRCAm, and non-BRCAm, despite 43% of pbo pts crossing over to PARPi! Final prespecified OS analysis expected in 2023 #ovariancancer#ESMO22#gyncsm
#Immunogen's mirvetuximab just became first ADC to be approved in #ovariancancer (platinum-resistant) based on SORAYA! NCCN compendia listings are expected for monotherapy in late-22 and in combo with bev in early-23. Data from confirmatory MIRASOL expected in early-23 #gyncsm
Failure of IO in LACC from CALLA trial gives pause to whether tx plan is the correct approach (RT may be immunosuppressive according to timing, dose, fractioning). Worth exploring neoadjuvant instead of adjuvant IO in LACC #cervicalcancer#IGCS2022#gyncsm
ASCO publishes updated PARPi recommendations in #ovariancancer. Correction needed: Figure A2 in appendix should have contained HRD+ status in olaparib + bev maintenance recommendation based on PAOLA-1 label @JCO_ASCO@AstraZenecaUS#gyncsm https://t.co/XE50uVx4xY
