Dr. Jonathan Goldman presents the HARMONi data at #WCLC25. In EGFR NSCLC post TKI, adding ivonescimab (VEGF/PD1 bispecific) improves PFS (4.4 to 6.8m, HR 0.52). Numeric difference in OS in Western pts, but complicated analysis in heterogenous group. Improvement over MARIPOSA2?

#WCLC25 Presidential Superb FLAURA2 OS discussion by @danieltanmd, main questions: - combo may ⬆️likelihood of long-term response? - clinical/molec/ctDNA factors relevant - refinement needs complex integration of factors Extremely elegant slides, I plan to use 😃 @IASLC #LCSM

E4512: adjuvant crizotinib for resected stage II-III ALK+ NSCLC #DavidGerber. Insightful discussion by @JessicaJLinMD #WCLC25 💠Adjuvant crizotinib did not prolong median DFS 💠Biomarkers still critical for early-stage NSCLC given role of TKIs eg. osi (ADAURA) & alectinib (ALINA)

Exciting #ARROS1 phase 1/2 trial results of #zidesamtinib in ROS+ mNSCLC #WCLC25 @alexdrilon 💠Active in heavily pretreated pts: ORR 44% after 1-4 prior ROS1 TKIs; 51% after 1 prior TKI (criz or entrect) 💠Responses after prior repotrectinib & taletrectinib; active against G2032R

Exciting final overall survival analysis of FLAURA2: osi + PT/pem vs osi alone for #EGFRm NSCLC #WCLC25 @dplanchard 💠⬆️OS with osi/CTx (median 47.5 mo) vs osi (37.6 mo) 💠Benefit despite median exposure to pem 8.3 mo & most pts in control arm receiving subsequent PT-based chemo

At NOSCM, @JuliaRotow presents provocative data supporting continuation of EGFR TKIs after progressive disease, so-called treatment beyond progression (TBP). I am increasingly a believer. Invariably there are residual sensitive clones which need to be controlled

Enjoyed participating in the session on adjuvant #EGFR & #ALK TKI at Yin & Yang Lung Cancer Masterclass w/ @Tony_Calles & @MarianaBrandao0 w/ important debate on role of adjuvant chemo prior to TKI. Thanks to @mihaela_aldea @RobertoFerrara_ @BRicciutiMD for the chance to present!

Dynamic debate b/w @JuliaRotow & @BenjaminBesseMD on 1L combos vs 1L osi for #EGFR+ NSCLC 💠#FLAURA2 & #MARIPOSA more effective for most subgroups than osi alone: highly important for pts w/⬆️risk features 💠Significant tox of MARIPOSA: need for mitigation (subQ ami, COCOON ppx)

Fantastic debate b/w @JessicaJLinMD & @NarjustFlorezMD at Yin & Yang Lung Ca Masterclass: 1L lorlatinib vs 1L 2G TKIs for ALK+ mNSCLC 💠Median PFS >5yrs of 1L lorla. More limited 2L+ activity especially w/o secondary mut 💠More challenging tox of lorla: neurocog AE,⬆️wt, HLD, etc
