Mashup Score: 2Onvansertib in Combination with FOLFIRI and Bevacizumab in Second-line Treatment of KRAS-mutant Metastatic Colorectal Cancer: A Phase 1b Clinical Study - 3 month(s) ago
Abstract. Purpose: Onvansertib is a highly specific inhibitor of Polo-like kinase 1 (PLK1), with demonstrated safety in solid tumors. We evaluated, preclinically and clinically, the potential of onvansertib in combination with chemotherapy as a therapeutic option for KRAS-mutant colorectal cancer (CRC). Patients and Methods: Preclinical activity of onvansertib was assessed: (1) in vitro in KRAS-wild type and -mutant isogenic CRC cells; and (2) in vivo, in combination with irinotecan, in a KRAS-mutant xenograft model. Clinically, a Phase Ib trial was conducted to investigate onvansertib at doses 12, 15, and 18 mg/m2 (days 1-5 and 14-19 of a 28-day cycle) in combination with FOLFIRI/bevacizumab (days 1 and 15) in KRAS-mutant metastatic CRC patients who had prior oxaliplatin exposure. Safety, efficacy, and changes in circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) were assessed. Results: In preclinical models, onvansertib displayed superior activity in KRAS-mutant than wild-type isogenic CRC cells and demo

Mashup Score: 2HCC-LIVE Conference Registration | HCC-LIVE - 5 month(s) ago
The HCC-LIVE Conference will bring together key opinion leaders from teams of clinicians who care for patients with HCC (oncologists, hepatologists, gastroenterologists, interventional radiologists, and surgeons) from the industry to discuss optimized trial design, patient populations, therapeutic endpoints, and potential benefits these agents can have for patients with HCC. The 1.5-day meeting will maintain core tenants such as debate, tumor boards, multidisciplinary discussion, a highlight of top papers and new technologies, symposia, and special focus sessions on local and systemic therapies, all anchored in multidisciplinary representation (hepatology, medical, surgical, and radiation oncology, diagnostic and interventional radiology, transplant surgery) with time dedicated to robust discussions.

Mashup Score: 24
What is this summary about? This is a summary of an article describing an ongoing study called MOUNTAINEER. This article was published in The Lancet Oncology in 2023. The study included 117 adults with metastatic HER2-positive colorectal cancer. The researchers wanted to know whether a combination of 2 drugs called tucatinib and trastuzumab could shrink the participants’ cancer. The researchers also wanted to know whether receiving tucatinib alone could also shrink the participants’ cancer. What were the results? In this study, researchers found that 32 out of 84 participants had their tumors respond to treatment with tucatinib with trastuzumab. This was about 4 in 10 participants. This means that the tumors shrank by at least 30% or disappeared. Participants whose tumors responded to tucatinib with trastuzumab responded for a median of 12.4 months. 60 out of 84 participants had their tumors respond or remain about the same size after treatment with tucatinib with trastuzumab. This was
