Overcoming mTOR Resistance in Renal Cell Carcinoma

In an interview with Targeted Oncology, Jaime Merchan, MD, delved into data from the LITESPARK-013 trial evaluating belzutifan for advanced clear cell renal cell carcinoma treatment.

In this episode of Emerging Experts, Peter Zang, MD, highlights research on baseline CD8 lymph node avidity with 89-Zr-crefmirlimab for the treatment of patients with metastatic renal cell carcinoma and response to immunotherapy.

The phase 3 EMBER-3 trial showed imlunestrant improved PFS over SOC endocrine therapy in ER-positive, HER2-negative advanced breast cancer with ESR1 mutations, though not significantly in the overall population.

In our 4th episode of Emerging Experts, Minas P. Economides, MD, unveils the challenges and opportunities for renal cell carcinoma treatment, focusing on the lack of therapies available in the second-line setting.

An analysis of phase 3 trials found tamoxifen significantly reduced 15-year ipsilateral breast recurrence in patients with “good risk” DCIS treated without radiation therapy.

In the phase 3 EUROPA trial, exclusive postoperative radiation therapy led to better health-related quality of life and fewer treatment-related adverse events in older patients with stage I luminal-like breast cancer at 24 months.
