ASCO 2025: Focus on Breast Cancer
TVEC plus chemo shows promise in early TNBC, boosting immune response and survival with favorable safety profile. Dr. Patt discusses how AI is transforming oncology care, and how to implement it responsibly and effectively.
Dr. Sammons on RLY-2608 plus fulvestrant in HR+/HER2– mBC with PIK3CA mutations: safety, efficacy, and trial updates. Dr. Shatsky weighs DESTINY-Breast09 findings and highlights the need to balance efficacy with long-term quality of life.
Emi-Le ADC shows promising activity in B7-H4–positive TNBC and endometrial cancer with a novel auristatin payload. INAVO120 shows OS benefit with inavolisib in PIK3CA-mutated HR+/HER2– aBC, raising new considerations for first-line care. ADELA trial explores elacestrant + everolimus for ESR1-mutated breast cancer post-CDK4/6, aiming to boost 2L outcomes.
New ASCENT-04 data could shift first-line care in PD-L1+ TNBC. Dr. Rebecca Shatsky shares real-world insights from ASCO 2025. HER3-DXd shows promise for CNS metastases in breast and lung cancer in the TUXEDO-3 trial, including patients with LMD. Sacituzumab + pembrolizumab improved PFS vs chemo in PD-L1+ TNBC in ASCENT-04, with no new safety signals.
Vepdegestrant improves PFS in ESR1-mutant ER+/HER2- breast cancer, offering a well-tolerated oral option post-CDK4/6. Sacituzumab + pembrolizumab improves PFS vs chemo in PD-L1+ TNBC, per ASCENT-04/KEYNOTE-D19 phase 3 trial at ASCO 2025. Dr. Lustberg discusses DESTINY-Breast09 and the potential shift to T-DXd + pertuzumab in HER2+ mBC first-line treatment. Stephanie Graff, MD, reviews top ASCO25 breast cancer trials, including ASCENT-04, DESTINY-Breast09, and SERENA-6.
Dr. Gradishar discusses how tolerability, toxicity, and NCCN guidelines shape HER2+ breast cancer treatment decisions.
Dr. William Gradishar discusses treatment sequencing strategies for HER2+ metastatic breast cancer at ASCO 2025. T-DXd plus pertuzumab significantly improves PFS vs THP in HER2+ mBC, per interim results from DESTINY-Breast09. Elinzanetant reduces vasomotor symptoms from endocrine therapy in HR+ breast cancer, with rapid onset and good tolerability. THP delivers similar pCR and better tolerability than TCbHP for HER2+ early breast cancer, per phase 3 neoCARHP trial. AI-powered TIL analysis may predict pCR and survival outcomes in HR+/HER2– breast cancer treated with neoadjuvant chemo.
