Alterations in fibroblast growth factor receptor 2 (FGFR2) have emerged as promising drug targets for intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma, a rare cancer with poor prognosis. Futibatinib, next-generation, covalently binding FGFR1-4 inhibitor, has been shown to both antitumor activity patients FGFR-altered tumors and strong preclinical against acquired resistance mutations associated ATP-competitive FGFR inhibitors.In this multinational, open-label, single-group, phase study, we enrolled...

Preoperative chemoradiotherapy (CRT) and surgical resection are the standard treatment for locally advanced rectal cancer (LARC). Combining immune checkpoint inhibitors with radiation suggests a promising approach enhancing efficacy. We investigated efficacy of CRT followed by nivolumab surgery in patients LARC.In phase I, we feasibility sequentially combined CRT, 5 cycles nivolumab, radical surgery. In II, microsatellite stable (MSS) instability-high (MSI-H) LARC were evaluated.Three I...

With a HER2-positivity rate of 5–20% in BTCs, case series and small clinical trials shown signs activity for HER2 blockade these pts. T-DXd is antibody-drug conjugate composed humanized monoclonal anti-HER2 antibody, cleavable linker, topoisomerase I inhibitor. The HERB trial investigator-initiated, multicenter, single-arm phase 2 pts HER2-expressing BTCs. Methods: Centrally confirmed (HER2-positive: IHC3+...

Abstract Certain genetic alterations and right-sided primary tumor location are associated with resistance to anti-epidermal growth factor (EGFR) treatment in metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC). The phase 3 PARADIGM trial ( n = 802) demonstrated longer overall survival first-line anti-EGFR (panitumumab) versus antivascular endothelial (bevacizumab) plus modified FOLFOX6 patients RAS wild-type mCRC left-sided tumors. This prespecified exploratory biomarker analysis of 733) evaluated the...

PURPOSE Everolimus, an oral inhibitor of the mammalian target rapamycin, has shown antitumor activity in gastric cancer preclinical and phase I studies. This II study evaluated efficacy safety everolimus pretreated patients with advanced cancer. PATIENTS AND METHODS Patients who experienced progression despite prior chemotherapy received 10 mg orally daily until disease or discontinuation. The primary end point was control rate (DCR; ie, complete response, partial stable disease). Secondary...

S-1, an oral fluoropyrimidine, plus cisplatin (SP) is a standard regimen for advanced gastric cancer (AGC) in East Asia. To date, no studies have evaluated the efficacy and safety of trastuzumab combined with SP patients human epidermal growth factor receptor type 2 (HER2)-positive AGC. Patients HER2-positive AGC received S-1 (80–120 mg per day) orally on days 1–14, (60 m−2) intravenously day 1, (course 8 kg−1; course onward, 6 kg−1) 1 21-day cycle. The primary end point was response rate...
