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


Great to see ctDNA NGS is now fully funded by NHS England for routine blood draw at presentation of advanced #NSCLC to clinic or as emergency admission tinyurl.com/ykd2bn96 Now we need max implementation for max benefit! BTOG British Thoracic Society (BTS) Lung Cancer Nursing UK

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

.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
