🌟And here with the efficacy and safety data of #NVL655, ALK-selective, TRK-sparing and brain-penetrant 4G ALK TKI, from ALKOVE-1, presented today #ESMO24 by @alexdrilon
✅ ORR 38% in heavily pretreated pts overall (1-5 prior ALK TKIs)
✅ ORR 35% in pts post-lorlatinib (in which setting we currently have no approved ALK TKIs) --> 50-64% in pts with single or compound ALK resistance mutations
✅ ORR 57% in pts lorlatinib-naive

Very nice discussion on relapsed #SCLC by Dr. @Arohatgi at #WCLC24. ADCs showing promise and easier to deliver than a BiTE like tarlatamab. No clear biomarker but encouraging efficacy. But we need randomized data to provide clear perspective.
🔥🚨@OncoAlert HOT OFF THE PRESS.

Learning from a mentor indeed never ends, whether it's diving into oncology or savoring Nola food! 🐊 Incredibly lucky to have had Balazs guiding me at the start of my thoracic oncology journey and excited to have him as my first visitor in St. Louis!
Mentorship 101:
Important to check on your mentees even after they start a new job- like Eçe at Wash U- even if one has to drive 1000+ miles for it!😉
I took the effort to introduce her to new skills, like eating alligator tacos..
Great to see you taking a fantastic start, Eçe!
