Highlights from an interesting panel from yesterday led by Dr. Elez (Vall d’Hebron) and Dr. Spencer (NYU Langone). IO in solid organ transplant recipients, effect of time-of-day for combo immuno-chemotherapy in advanced NSCLC, ultra low-dose IO in solid tumors, and more. #ASCO25




This is a major story from #ASCO25. Randomized phase 3 trial of time of day of immunotherapy infusion. Randomized to infusion before or after 3pm. Early infusion far superior: PFS 11.3 vs 5.7 HR 0.42, OS HR 0.45! Impactful, pragmatic, not costly. This should be a bigger story.
Great talk by Dr. Vanita Noronha from Tata Memorial Hospital discussing phase III results from the DELII study, comparing low-dose IO to chemotherapy for solid tumors in the 2nd line and beyond. An interesting option when full dose IO is inaccessible or unaffordable. #ASCO25

Exciting data presented this morning by Janice Mehnert, MD (@JaniceM10) from NYU Langone Perlmutter Cancer Center. Phase II results of sarilumab in combo with ipi/nivo/rela in advanced melanoma showed a 12.1% grade 3-5 irAE rate and a 63.6% response rate at 24 weeks. #Melanoma
