Could when you get chemo-immunotherapy affect how long you live?! ▫️1st RCT: Infusions before 3PM = better PFS & OS in advanced NSCLC ▫️Benefit regardless of PD-L1 ▫️Early timing = stronger CD8+ T cell response But are outcomes tied to access? Could subQ ICI help? #ASCO25 ASCO

Results from #DeLLphi304 Phase 3 trial in NEJM #Tarlatamab vs Chemotherapy as 2L for advanced #SmallCell #LungCancer 🫁 ✅ mOS: 13.6 vs 8.3 months (HR 0.60) ✅ Grade ≥3 AEs: 54% vs 80% ✅ #CRS & #ICANS mostly grade 1/2 ‼️ This is practice changing and practice confirming

👏 Incredible presentation & major congrats to Patrick Forde + team! A 10% absolute 5-yr OS improvement is remarkable—esp. when chemo alone gave us just ~5%! This truly shifts the #NSCLC paradigm 🧠 With both neoadjuvant & perioperative trials showing OS benefit… ◼️ What’s the

Dr. Jamie Chaft presents #NeoADAURA💥 Neoadjuvant osimertinib ± chemo in resectable EGFR+ NSCLC ◼️ MPR: 26% (Osi+CT) vs 25% (Osi) vs 2% (CT) ◼️ N2 → N1/0 nodal downstaging ◼️ EFS: Immature but trends in favor of Osi Still unclear if adjuvant osimertinib alone (without chemo)

#ASCO25 Insightful discussion by Lizza Hendriks on perioperative strategies focusing on: ✔️subgroups of patients in need for escalation: nonPCR, PDL1neg, non-ctDNA clearance, p53(+) for EGFR ✔️ways to improve pCR rates: CRT, ICI combos, ADCs? Ami for EGFR+ #some #LCSM ASCO
