Olaparib-bevacizumab PFS benefit in ovarian cancer greatest following upfront surgery

20 May 2020 bởi

The combination of olaparib and bevacizumab as maintenance therapy for advanced ovarian cancer appears to confer the greatest progression-free survival (PFS) benefit in women without residual macroscopic disease following upfront cytoreductive surgery, according to an analysis of the phase III PAOLA-1* trial.

Subgroup findings boost benefit of niraparib in newly-diagnosed ovarian cancer

14 May 2020 bởi

The PARP* inhibitor niraparib improves progression-free survival (PFS) and is well-tolerated in women with newly diagnosed advanced ovarian cancer (OCa) after a response to first-line (1L) platinum-based chemotherapy (CT), subgroup results of the phase III PRIMA/ENGOT-OV26/GOG-3012 trial have shown.

Trametinib improves PFS in low-grade serous ovarian or peritoneal cancer

12 May 2020 bởi

Treatment with trametinib, an MEK inhibitor, significantly improves progression-free survival (PFS) in patients with recurrent low-grade serous ovarian or peritoneal carcinoma (LGSOC) compared with standard of care (SOC), according to a study presented at SGO 20/20.

Adding trastuzumab to chemo improves survival in HER2+ uterine serous carcinoma

11 May 2020 bởi

Adding trastuzumab to a chemotherapy backbone of carboplatin and paclitaxel led to sustained survival benefit in patients with recurrent/advanced, HER2-positive uterine serous carcinoma compared with chemotherapy alone, according to an updated survival analysis presented at SGO 2020 Meeting.

Veliparib continues to show positive signals in ovarian cancer

08 May 2020 bởi

Subgroup analyses of the VELIA* trial showed that the concomitant administration of the poly(adenosine diphosphate-ribose) polymerase inhibitor veliparib with an induction chemotherapy (CT) regimen comprising carboplatin and paclitaxel (CP) generated antitumour activity and favourable safety in women with high-grade serous ovarian cancer.
