In patients with locally advanced cancer without distant metastases, the neoadjuvant setting presents a platform to evaluate new drugs. For mismatch repair proficient/microsatellite stable (pMMR/MSS) colon and rectal cancer, immunotherapy has shown limited efficacy. Herein, we report exceptional responses observed with neoadjuvant botensilimab (BOT...
PURPOSE: Patients with locally advanced or metastatic urothelial cancer (la/mUC) who are ineligible for cisplatin-based therapy have limited first-line (1L) treatment options and significant need for improved therapies. Enfortumab vedotin (EV) and pembrolizumab (Pembro) individually have shown a survival benefit in urothelial cancer in second-line ...
Shiga toxin-related hemolytic uremic syndrome (STEC-HUS) is a serious condition, characterized by multiorgan thrombotic microangiopathy, mainly affecting children. Renal involvement is severe, with approximately half of patients requiring dialysis. So far, no specific treatment has been proven efficient in STEC-HUS. The use of eculizumab, a monoclo...
BackgroundProspective evaluations of long COVID in outpatients with coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) are lacking. We aimed to determine the frequency and predictors of long COVID after treatment with the monoclonal antibody bamlanivimab in ACTIV-2/A5401.MethodsData were analyzed from participants who received bamlanivimab 700 mg in ACTIV-2 from ...
BackgroundTo date, single-agent immune checkpoint inhibitor (CPI) therapy has proven to be ineffective against biomarker-unselected extrapulmonary poorly differentiated neuroendocrine carcinomas (EP-PDNECs). The efficacy of CPI in combination with chemotherapy remains under investigation.MethodsPatients with advanced, progressive EP-PDNECs were enr...
Trastuzumab deruxtecan (T-DXd) is an antibody drug conjugate with a topoisomerase I payload that targets the human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2). T-DXd is approved for patients with previously treated HER2-positive or HER2-low (immunohistochemistry [IHC] 1+ or IHC 2+/ISH-) metastatic/unresectable breast cancer (BC). In a second-line HER...
BACKGROUND: Approximately 15-20% of advanced gastric and gastro-oesophageal junction cancers overexpress HER2. In DESTINY-Gastric01, the HER2-targeted antibody-drug conjugate trastuzumab deruxtecan improved response and overall survival versus chemotherapy in patients from Japan and South Korea with locally advanced or metastatic HER2-positive gast...
BackgroundThe N-MOmentum trial investigated safety and efficacy of inebilizumab in participants with neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder (NMOSD).ObjectiveEvaluate the attack identification process and adjudication committee (AC) performance in N-MOmentum.MethodsAdults (n = 230) with NMOSD and Expanded Disability Status Scale score ⩽8 were random...
Background and objectivesThe B cell-depleting anti-CD20 antibody ocrelizumab (OCR) effectively reduces MS disease activity and slows disability progression. Given the role of B cells as antigen-presenting cells, the primary goal of this study was to evaluate the effect of OCR on the T-cell receptor repertoire diversity.MethodsTo examine whether OCR...
PurposeEganelisib (IPI-549) is a first-in-class, orally administered, highly selective PI3Kγ inhibitor with antitumor activity alone and in combination with programmed cell death protein 1/ligand 1 (PD-1/PD-L1) inhibitors in preclinical studies. This phase 1/1b first-in-human, MAcrophage Reprogramming in Immuno-Oncology-1 (NCT02637531) study evalua...
