Lasofoxifene/Abemaciclib Shows Clinically Meaningful Efficacy in ER+/HER2- ESR1-Mutant Breast Cancer

June 5th 2023

Longer follow-up data from the phase 2 ELAINE-2 study demonstrated that treatment with lasofoxifene and abemaciclib resulted in clinically meaningful antitumor activity as well as continued tolerability with no new safety signals for patients with estrogen receptor-positive HER2-negative ESR1-mutated breast cancer who previously received CDK4/6 inhibitors.

Doxorubicin/Zalifrelimab/Balstilimab Generates Activity in Soft Tissue Sarcoma

June 5th 2023

Treatment with doxorubicin plus zalifrelimab and balstilimab produced a favorable 6-month progression-free survival rate in patients with difficult-to-treat soft tissue sarcoma subtypes unlikely to respond to doxorubicin or immune checkpoint inhibitor monotherapy.

TAS-102 Plus Bevacizumab Fails to Extend OS in Unresectable mCRC

June 5th 2023
