β
PFS: 6.04 months (overall palliative), 5.35 months (β₯3rd-line therapy).
βοΈ Outperformed non-TuPro matched cohorts: 64.7% DCR (TuPro) vs. 23.5% (non-TuPro) in β₯3rd-line patients.
β
Cost-effective: 1.8x higher than standard NGS but enabled highly individualized therapies.
π Key Findings
β
In 75% of cases, TuPro-based data (beyond standard NGS) was judged useful by the MTB for treatment recommendations. 54 distinct markers informed decisions.
βοΈ Beyond SOC patients (n=37) achieved 38% ORR and 54% DCR - remarkable for refractory cases!
The TuPro study used 9 #multiomics technologies (scRNA-seq, proteomics, etc.) to profile 116 #melanoma patients, generating >40,000 markers/sample in just 4 weeks.

βοΈ KRAS G12C ctDNA negativity at C1D8 β mPFS 7.26 vs 4.01 months
β
ATM mutations reduced sotorasib benefit vs docetaxel (mPFS: 4.17 vs 8.25 months).
π‘ These biomarkers enable precision patient selection and identify candidates for combination therapies. TTF-1 IHC may guide frontline decisions.
βοΈ TTF-1 low vs TTF-1 high - ORR: 4.17% vs 42.1% ; mPFS: 2.76 vs 8.11 months (HR 0.23); mOS: 4.47 vs 16 months.
β
Integration of NRF2 activation status and TTF-1 expression enabled robust partitioning of patients into favorable (~70%), intermediate (~13%) and poor (~17%) prognostic groups.
#Onco404
π Key Findings
βοΈ KEAP1 co-mutations were correlated with significantly shorter PFS and OS on sotorasib.
β
NRF2 activation (often linked to KEAP1 mutations) was also associated with inferior outcomes. mPFS: 2.73 vs 7.75 months (NRF2 low)

This integrated analysis of CodeBreaK 100 & 200 trials delves into biomarkers influencing sotorasib efficacy in KRAS G12C-mutated NSCLC.

β No significant differences in quality of life, feeling "heard/understood," or late hospice referrals.
β
This scalable EHR-based strategy addressed clinician barriers, increased PC access without overburdening workflows, and offers a pragmatic solution for resource-limited settings.
#Onco404
π Key Findings
β
43.9% (intervention) vs. 8.3% (control) completed PC consults (adjusted OR: 8.9) ‴οΈ
βοΈ Systemic therapy within 14 days of death was lower in the intervention group (6.5%) compared to control (16.1%; AOR 0.3).

Timely and comprehensive HRQoL data is vital for integrating patient experiences into clinical and regulatory decision-making.

π HRQoL improved in 43% of trials but worsened in 4%, all linked to SEP-based approvals
β οΈ Reporting hasnβt improved since 2015. Delays mean doctors and patients often wait 6+ months
β οΈ Median latency for reporting was 1.1 months post-approval, but a quarter took over a year
#Onco404 #Cancer #Kanser
π Key Findings
π 50% of trials reported HRQoL data, but only 42% had it available by FDA approval.
π 79% of approvals relied on surrogate endpoints, yet only 18% of these showed improved HRQoL.
π Trials with survival (OS) endpoints: 70% reported HRQoL vs. 45% for SEPs.
#Onco404 #Cancer #Kanser
A new study analyzed 233 trials associated with 207 FDA approvals (2015β2020) and found alarming gaps in health-related quality of life (HRQoL) reporting.

βοΈ Trabectedin showed a higher frequency of grade β₯3 adverse events (AEs), serious AEs, and serious adverse drug reactions.
Trabectedin did not improve survival vs. standard chemo and had a worse safety profile. No subgroup (BRCA status, prior PARPi use) benefited more from trabectedin.
#Onco404
π Key Findings
β
Median overall survival (OS): 15.8 months (arm A: trabectedin) vs. 17.9 months (arm B: control).
βοΈ Median progression-free survival (PFS): 4.9 vs. 4.4 months.
β
ORR was 17.1% (arm A) vs. 21.4% (arm B), with comparable median DoR (5.62 vs. 5.66 months).
#Onco404 #MedSky #OncSky
The phase III MITO-23 trial compared trabectedin monotherapy to physicianβs choice chemo in 244 patients with BRCA-mutated or BRCAness recurrent ovarian cancer.
