Welcome to OncLive On Air®! I’m your host today, Ashling Wahner.

OncLive On Air is a podcast from OncLive®, which provides oncology professionals with the resources and information they need to provide the best patient care. In both digital and print formats, OncLive covers every angle of oncology practice, from new technology to treatment advances to important regulatory decisions.

In today’s episode, we had the pleasure of speaking with Tarita Thomas, MD, PhD, MBA, and Rimas Lukas, MD, about abstracts presented during a brain cancer­–focused clinical science symposium at the 2024 ASCO Annual Meeting. Dr Thomas is an associate professor of radiation oncology and Dr Lukas is an associate professor of neurology (neuro-oncology; hospital neurology) at the Northwestern University Feinberg School of Medicine in Chicago, Illinois.

In our exclusive interview, Drs Thomas and Lukas discussed the results of 4 abstracts presented during the symposium. In particular, their discussion highlighted findings with ST101 in window-of-opportunity cohorts of patients with recurrent glioblastoma (GBM), the prognostic utility of cerebrospinal fluid circulating tumor DNA in recurrent high-grade glioma, the genomic drivers of GBM, and preclinical data with navtemadlin (KRT-232) in IDH wild-type GBM.
