Exploring the Future of ctDNA and Novel Treatment Strategies

Patients with MSS tumors diagnosed with metastatic CRC did not experience enhanced OS outcomes with frontline ICI therapy compared with chemotherapy.

Steven E. Finkelstein, MD, DABR, FACRO discuses how Prolaris distinguishes itself from other genomic biomarker platforms by providing uniquely actionable clinical information that quantifies the absolute benefit of androgen deprivation therapy when added to radiation therapy, offering clinicians a more precise tool for personalizing prostate cancer treatment strategies.

Treatment-related adverse events of special interest occurred in 64.9% of patients who received fruquintinib and 23.0% of those who received placebo.

Alvaro Martinez, MD discusses how emerging genomic risk stratification tools such as the clinical cell-cycle risk (CCR) score are transforming personalized prostate cancer treatment by enabling more nuanced assessments of metastasis risk and treatment intensification strategies beyond traditional NCCN risk groupings.

A phase 2 study found that treatment with tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes elicited a partial response rate of 15.1% in patients with gastrointestinal cancers.

The FDA approved nivolumab with ipilimumab in adult and pediatric patients with CRC based on data from the phase 3 CHECKMATE-8HW trial.
