My wife is the type of thoughtful physician I aspire to be She’s working urgent care tonight and seeing kids who are too sick to go trick-or-treating so she brought them toys to take home in the hopes they don’t feel too left out Talk about putting care in healthcare ❤️

VOLGA explored short periods of EV (3 cycles) with duvalumab in muscle invasive bladder cancer #ESMO26 @NEJM. Results showed EVD was associated with better EFS + OS vs cystectomy alone (0.51 and 0.58 respectively). pCR 40-45% with ctDNA clearance rates of 60%. High rates of adjuvant IO therapy uptake and low rates of neuropathy suggest potential advantages of this approach which focuses the ADC in the neoadjuvant phase. It’s likely to be attractive for patients.

Brilliant talks from @AlbigesL, @KoenvdMijn, @YujiMiura5 & @BraunMDPhD at #ESMO26 highlighting novel therapies for #kidneycancer. Lots of perspective shifting evidence & discussion - I’m walking away with (1) the thought that we could still optimize ADCs for RCC despite multiple failed attempts (need to watch the talk!) and (2) the need to explore “smarter TILs”. @OncoAlert

Rigorous biomarker trials are extremely difficult to design. @AlbigesL is doing it! Looking forward to seeing the results at a future meeting. #ESMO26 @OncoAlert

In the absence of CNS irAEs I have not previously thought much about it. I think most of us under appreciate the cardiac and neuro consequences of long term inflammation from IO. Agree we should focus more on this.
Replying to @CPRT65
@CPRT65 Camillo Porta and @sophiemerrick1 for great PRO work and discussion of IO AEs and potential long term side effects. The possibility of persistent worsening “neurocognitive function” must now be discussed with patients who are engaging with adjuvant IO. ESMO26

Great presentation by @maughanonc! SWOG S2200: cabozantinib + atezolizumab showed a PFS signal vs cabozantinib in metastatic papillary RCC (HR 0.46). Only 33 eligible patients after early closure for slow accrual. Small but important! #ESMO26 @oncoalert @myESMO

#PAPMET2 trial @maughanonc although closed early d/t slow enrollment, still very meaningful to show more data to support IO/TKI preferred over TKI in papillary RCC 36 pts enrolled Higher PFS & ORR with doublet Results of STELLAR-304, SAMETA & AXIPAP are pending! #ESMO26

PAPMET2 Ph2 trial initiated by @SWOG presented by @maughanonc at #ESMO26. Builds upon #PAPMET by adding atezolizumab to cabozantinib for pRCC. Small cohort given rare histological subtype but initial results promising: PFS 25 vs 10mo, ORR 47%, no PD as BOR. Results for ongoing #STELLAR304, #SAMETA & #PAXIPEM nccRCC and pRCC trials eagerly awaited @RWinayak
