Happy to share our study published @JCO_ASCO ! ascopubs.org/doi/full/10.12…

➡️Patients with mUC with NECTIN4 amplifications (app. 25%) show remarkable responses to single-agent EV, with a 96% ORR compared to 32% in non-amplified cases!

Awesome talk by @joshmeeks.bsky.social on trial design in NMIBC. Huge need to get away from single arm trials. #SUO24

Impressive results: Ph 2 trial: BCG + gemcitabine in BCG-exposed #NMIBC (HG Ta/T1/CIS)
✅ 6 & 12 mo CR: 94% & 81%
✅ 6, 12 & 18 mo HG-RFS: 97%, 85%, 76%
✅ 2 Gr AEs (UTI, pneumonitis). No Gr 4,5 AEs
Phase 3 trial vs BCG will follow #SUO24 #BladderCancer @oncodaily.bsky.social

Nice overview on "Emerging ADCs for platinum-refractory UC" from #BLADDR in Vienna! 🚨

ADCs and small molecules came to stay and will likely advance cancer treatment of multiple cancers significantly !

Incredible improvement for patient with microsatellite unstable metastatic colorectal cancer. MSI is a Ferrari ride for cancer evolution, but immunotherapy is the perfect match to stop that ride !!! Don’t think that we will see similar success for other „biomarkers“ soon.

Have you ever heard about SDHB deficient renal cell carcinoma 🕵️‍♂️?
SDHB-deficient kidney cancer is a rare but highly aggressive tumor, often striking patients at a younger age—typically in their 30s and 40s. 🧬 Linked to hereditary mutations in the SDHB gene, it carries a poor prognosis.

2️⃣ Digital Pathology and Remote Consultations
Gone are the days of solely relying on glass slides under microscopes. Digital pathology converts these slides into high-resolution images that can be shared instantly across the globe. This enables real-time collaboration among experts.
