Today, OFTIM celebrates its 80th episode and presents its ESMO23 plenary session, including two practice-changing, paradigm-shifting trials. The first investigates the EGFR mutation Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer world with new drugs (amivantamab and lazertinib) to treat patients hose who progressed on osimertinib. The second trial is the EV-302/KEYNOTE-A39, which explores whether enfortumab vedotin (ADC) and pembrolizumab (immunotherapy) can best-platinum-based chemotherapy. No prior trial has ever done this, so the stakes are high. As the little engine once said, \"I think I can\", and, we, too, continue to see seismic shifts in cancer treatment in our quest for better therapy.
For now, the OFTIM team is signing out and taking a small break after daily reporting, but we hope you loved it and can't wait to return with more from the fascinating world of Medical Oncology.
