Sintilimab plus standard-of-care chemotherapy failed to demonstrate a significant improvement in overall survival and progression-free survival vs standard-of-care chemotherapy alone but did result in an improved objective response rate in patients with metastatic or recurrent pancreatic adenocarcinoma, according to findings from the phase 3 CISPD3 trial.

Acalabrutinib demonstrated an advantage in quality-adjusted survival compared with other treatments for relapsed/refractory chronic lymphocytic leukemia.

The combination of ibrutinib and venetoclax led to a lower rate of minimal residual disease compared with fludarabine, cyclophosphamide, and rituximab in patients with treatment-naïve chronic lymphocytic leukemia, according to preliminary findings from the phase 2 ERADIC trial.

Significant outcome differences were observed in premenopausal vs postmenopausal patients with hormone receptor–positive, HER2-negative breast cancer who had 1 to 3 positive lymph nodes and received adjuvant chemotherapy as well as endocrine therapy.
