At #MAO2025, Dr. Camille Chakiba presented the PRIORITY study on cancer patients’ care goals:
📌 Key finding: Patients 70+ prioritize treatment efficacy, while oncologists emphasize toxicity risks more than patients themselves.
💡 Takeaway: Goals must be discussed case by case!

📢 #MAO2025 | Chemo + IO in metastatic NSCLC for ≥65:
🔹 Meta-analysis (Dr. Emeline Orillard)
✅ Improved OS & PFS with IO in ≥65
❗ No significant benefit after 75 (small sample size)
📊 Update ongoing + need for raw data sharing.

At #MAO2025, experts highlighted:
✅ Efficacy signal in 65+ but limited data for older patients
⚠️ More toxicity & treatment discontinuation
🚀 Include elderly in innovation but with vigilance

• ✅ No loss of efficacy of immunotherapy in older patients
• ❓ Immunosenescence impact? Still unclear
• 🔍 Need for prospective clinical & translational data

9.5% MET and 7.9% EGFR detected in pts w lung SqCC with no smoking history.

Important to improve testing in this group. We are finding more of this with reflex testing in early stage disease.

🚨 Excited to share our work : "Systemic treatment among frail older patients with cancer".
✅ 3-month OS 81.8% when guided by geriatric assessments.
⚠️ Loss of ADL and cumulative frailty factors associated with poorer survival

Systemic treatment among frail older patients with cancer: An observational cohort
In the past, certain oncological therapies were not offered to frail older patients. However, the advancement of geriatric oncology, tailored chemotherapy regimens, the introduction of new treatments, and the optimization of supportive care have contributed to enhancing the therapeutic margin. We aimed to evaluate the benefit of systemic treatment among older adults by assessing the three-month survival of older frail patients with metastatic cancer.

- 215pts with ALK+ NSCLC
- women had ⬆️g3+ tox (f v m: 56% v 34% p=0.001), 35% had ⬆️trough levels p<0.001

Sex and common germline variants impact the toxicity profile and pharmacokinetics of alectinib: a nation-wide cohort study in patients with ALK-positive non-small cell lung cancer
Alectinib, a small-molecule kinase inhibitor, is used as first-line treatment for anaplastic lymphoma kinase–positive (ALK+) non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Albeit generally well-tolerated, a considerable subset of patients requires dose adjustments due to drug-related toxicity. Single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in genes related to the metabolism of alectinib may upfront identify patients at risk for toxicity.
