Journal: Lenvatinib Plus Pembrolizumab in Japanese Patients With Endometrial Cancer: Results From Study 309/KEYNOTE-775. (Pubmed Central) - Oct 6, 2022 AEs were manageable and led to discontinuation of one/both study drugs in 36.5% of patients in the lenvatinib plus pembrolizumab group versus 7.8% in the TPC group. Similar to the global Study 309/KEYNOTE-775 results, this analysis suggested favorable efficacy and manageable safety with lenvatinib plus pembrolizumab after platinum-based chemotherapy in Japanese patients with advanced endometrial cancer and supports this combination as a new standard of care in this population.

In one of these patients, HER2 amplification was noted by NGS analysis and atezolizumab with Herceptin & afatinib maintenance was given thereafter...Olaparib was not given for these 2 BRCA2 mutation patients.12 patients with ureter cancers received 2nd line immunotherapy combinations (Pembrolizumab 9, Nivolumab 1, Nivolumab with CT 1, low dose nivolumab 20 mg per 2 weeks with metronomic cyclophosphamide 1) and objective response rate was 58% (7/12)...in front-line combinations. Metronomic dose cyclophosphamide(suppress Treg) with low dose nivolumab could be an exciting regimen for CT-unfit or cisplatin-ineligible patients with economic concerns.

(Pubmed Central) - Oct 4, 2022 Moreover, cluster 1 (high 5-methylcytosine score) exhibited low sensitivity to cancer immunotherapy, but high sensitivity to radiotherapy and targeted therapy with lenvatinib. The novel 5-methylcytosine-based subtypes (according to the 5-methylcytosine score) may reflect the prognosis, tumor microenvironment, and applicability of precision medicine in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma.

P3 Antiangiogenic agents have strongly impacted the management of advanced HCC, with multiple drug options in first line setting (sorafenib, lenvatinib) and second line setting (regorafenib, cabozantinib, ramucirumab)...The insights gained from this "bench to the bedside and back" approach raise the hope for a more efficient development of targeted agents in combination, and in earlier stages of the disease, with the goal of increasing survival in patients afflicted with this aggressive and deadly diseases.
