Mashup Score: 5
Growing evidence suggests that many patients with high-risk non-muscle invasive urothelial carcinoma (NMIUC) can undergo bladder-sparing management with salvage intravesical therapies. However, inherent or developed disease resistance, particularly after multiple lines of prior salvage therapy, implores the continued pursuit of new treatment combinations. Herein, we describe the outcomes of 26 patients (31 treated units; 24 lower tract, 7 upper tract) with high-risk NMIUC treated with sequential intravesical gemcitabine and cabazitaxel with concomitant intravenous pembrolizumab (GCP) at the University of Iowa from August 2020 to February 2023. Median (IQR) follow-up was 30 (IQR: 17–35) months. Treated units had a history of high-risk NMIUC with a median of four prior endoluminal inductions. Overall, 87% of units presented with CIS or positive urine cytology. The 1- and 2-year recurrence-free survival was 77% (CI: 58–88%) and 52% (CI: 30–70%), respectively. The 2-year progression-free a

Mashup Score: 79Durvalumab and guadecitabine in advanced clear cell renal cell carcinoma: results from the phase Ib/II study BTCRC-GU16-043 - 10 month(s) ago
Epigenetic modulation is well established in hematologic malignancies but to a lesser degree in solid tumors. Here we report the results of a phase Ib/II study of guadecitabine and durvalumab in advanced clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC; NCT03308396). Patients received guadecitabine (starting at 60 mg/m2 subcutaneously on days 1-5 with de-escalation to 45 mg/m2 in case of dose limiting…

Mashup Score: 0Clinical Activity of Combined Telomerase Vaccination and Pembrolizumab in Advanced Melanoma: Results from a Phase I Trial - 1 year(s) ago
Abstract. Purpose: Cancer vaccines represent a novel treatment modality with a complementary mode of action addressing a crucial bottleneck for checkpoint inhibitor (CPI) efficacy. CPIs are expected to release brakes in T-cell responses elicited by vaccination, leading to more robust immune responses. Increased anti-tumor T-cell responses may confer increased anti-tumor activity in patients with…
