Promising signals from the ALEK-B ph 2 trial: combining alectinib w bevacizumab achieved 97.1% 12-mo PFS & median PFS of 39.6 months in ALK+ #NSCLC. Intracranial control also notably strong. Could this combo help overcome resistance in more aggressive ALK variants? Oscar Arrieta

Oncogene Cancer Research Jordi Remon Instituto Nacional de Cancerología Luis Lara-Mejía Instituto Oncológico Dr Rosell Pangaea Oncology We’re encouraged by new treatment options like this combo showing strong responses & prolonged progression-free survival. Improved brain control is especially important to us. We look forward to more research that offers hope and better quality of life for ALK+ patients worldwide

Young people get #cancer. Amy was just 20 when she was diagnosed w stage 4 #lungcancer. Her story & others show why we must act now. Amy’s what’s inspired Janclark to co-found our charity. Thanks The Sun for covering this important issue: thesun.co.uk/health/3502801… 🩵 #LCSM

What if a blood test could find #lungcancer before symptoms appear? NHS England is rolling out the EarlyCDT-Lung test—giving more people the chance to catch cancer early, when it can still be treated and hope is strongest. england.nhs.uk/2025/05/nhs-fi… #ASCO25 #LCSM

Remarkable results in pretreated EGFR mutant lung cancer! In global trial, stellar benefit in progression-free survival for the addition of ivonescimab to platinum doublet chemo. Given tox profile may be a preferred option in this setting. #LCSM #ASCO25

.Marcelo Corassa, MD. beautifully discusses EGFR/HER2 ex20ins development. Puts zipalertib data in context: similar ORRs. Tox of amivantamab is difficult & better for zipa. Suggests start with TKI and move to ami 2nd. In HER2, AE profile suggests TKI 1st may be preferable #ASCO25
