An Exploratory Analysis of the PRESERVE 1Trial: Assessing Trilaciclib’s Role in Reducing Chemotherapy-Related Toxicity in Metastatic Colorectal Cancer

An Exploratory Analysis of the PRESERVE 1Trial: Assessing Trilaciclib’s Role in Reducing Chemotherapy-Related Toxicity in Metastatic Colorectal Cancer

On November 23rd, Dr. Tianshu Liu's team from Zhongshan Hospital published a study titled "Trilaciclib prior to FOLFOXIRI/bevacizumab for patients with untreated metastatic colorectal cancer: phase 3 PRESERVE 1 trial" in JNCI Cancer Spectrum(IF=3.4). The PRESERVE 1 trial sheds light on trilaciclib's potential to reduce chemotherapy-related toxicity in mCRC. While its efficacy in mitigating myelosuppression is evident, the antitumor results are concerning. Further studies are needed to explore the balance between toxicity reduction and efficacy, and to determine trilaciclib's optimal use in cancer treatment.

CCHIO 2024 | Dr. Bicheng Zhang: Post-Resistance Strategies for Third-Generation EGFR-TKIs in NSCLC

EGFR mutations are among the most common genetic abnormalities in non-squamous non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), and EGFR-TKIs have become the standard first-line treatment for advanced EGFR-mutant NSCLC. Despite significant advancements across three generations of EGFR-TKIs, resistance remains unavoidable. Post-resistance treatment options for EGFR-TKI patients, particularly those facing complex third-generation resistance mechanisms, are limited.

CCHIO 2024丨Dr. Xiufeng Liu: Exploring the Clinical Potential of the “Cola Combination” from LEAP-002 to LEAP-012

The era of immunotherapy has brought new hope to advanced hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), with various targeted-immune combination therapies emerging as potential breakthroughs. However, the journey of the "Cola Combination"—pembrolizumab combined with lenvatinib—has been marked by mixed results. In the LEAP-002 trial, the combination showed negative results in the general population but positive outcomes in the Asian subgroup. The LEAP-012 trial further demonstrated the combination's efficacy when paired with transarterial chemoembolization (TACE) in intermediate-stage HCC. Yet, its precise role in clinical practice remains under discussion.
