Abstract No : 9558

Abstract Type : Poster Session

Indication : Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer

Intervention : Bintrafusp alfa (M7824)

Company : Merck KGaA, Darmstadt, Germany, Pharmaceutical/Biotech Company

Technology : Bifunctional fusion protein

After two years of follow-up, bintrafusp alfa continues to show manageable safety with durable responses and encouraging long-term survival, especially in patients with high PD-L1 expression. A study evaluating bintrafusp alfa vs pembrolizumab as first-line treatment for NSCLC is ongoing in patients with high PD-L1 expression (NCT03631706).

Adjuvant Therapy For High-risk Her2-positive Early Breast Cancer

Abstract No : 500

Indication : Her2 Positive Breast Cancer

Intervention : trastuzumab emtansine (T-DM1) + pertuzumab

Company : Roche

Technology : Monoclonal antibody

Replacing adjuvant taxane and trastuzumab with T-DM1 did not result in significantly improved efficacy or overall safety. Nonetheless, in this high-risk population, a favorable IDFS outcome was achieved in both study arms. HP + chemotherapy remains the standard of care for patients with high-risk HER2-positive EBC.
