    Charlotte Zuur, Leiden University Medical Centre, Leiden, The Netherlands, outlines the primary objectives and results of the Phase II MATISSE study (NCT02760498) of nivolumab and nivolumab plus ipilimumab (two monoclonal antibodies targeting PD1 and CTLA-4 respectively) in extensive cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma (SCC). The randomised trial enrolled 40 patients with an indication for curative surgery with or without radiotherapy; the study aimed to improve patients’ clinical prospects through immunotherapy and de-escalate surgery and radiotherapy. Dr Zuur shared the promising results of the immunotherapy, stating 90% of patients who refused surgery displayed disease-free survival of 1 year.

    James Chih-Hsin Yang, MD, PhD, discusses the implications of the phase 3 KEYNOTE-789 trial and what directions investigators can examine in the future to help fill the unmet need for patients with TKI-resistant, EGFR-mutated metastatic non–small cell lung cancer.

    Emrullah Yilmaz, MD, PhD, Cleveland Clinic, Cleveland, OH, describes the rationale behind the addition of BCA101, a bifunctional EGFR/TGFβ inhibitor, with pembrolizumab, a PD-1 antibody, for patients with recurrent, metastatic head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) in a dose expansion trial (NCT04429542). EGFR is an established target, where existing therapies such as cetuximab target EGFR in head and neck cancer. Inhibition of TGFβ additionally has immunomodulatory effects.

    The efficacy of maintenance mirvetuximab soravtansine plus bevacizumab is being compared with bevacizumab alone in patients with folate receptor alpha–positive recurrent platinum-sensitive epithelial ovarian, fallopian tube, or peritoneal cancers that did not progress on second-line triplet therapy in the phase 3 GLORIOSA study.

    David A. Braun, MD, PhD, Yale School of Medicine, New Haven, CT, explains how a transitional study used advanced genomic techniques, such as single cell approaches, to uncover the causes of resistance to anti-PD1 therapy. Single cell RNA sequencing analysis from various clinical trial samples showed that slightly exhausted T-cells that expressed markers such as SLAMF7, were strongly linked with therapeutic resistance. This finding needs to be corroborated in other studies and requires functional testing, to uncover if this is a biomarker, predictive factor, or a component that can be modulated.

    Shilpa Gupta, MD, Cleveland Clinic, Cleveland, OH, talks on the trial design of the Phase III MAIN-CAV trial (NCT05092958) of maintenance cabozantinib and avelumab in patients with metastatic urothelial cancer. Based on the JAVELIN Bladder 100 trial (NCT02603432), maintenance avelumab is considered the standard of care in this setting, but responses remain poor in patients with certain metastases. The MAIN-CAV will assess the addition of cabozantinib in patients pre-treated with platinum-based chemotherapy, and overall survival will be the primary objective.
