ASCO GI 2025 | Dr. Scott Kopetz: EC + FOLFOX Regimen Significantly Improves Response Rates in mCRC, Delivering Rapid and Durable Efficacy

The 2025 ASCO Gastrointestinal Cancers Symposium (ASCO GI 2025) successfully concluded on January 25, showcasing the latest advances in gastrointestinal cancer research and treatment strategies. One of the most notable studies was the BREAKWATER trial (Abstract #16), which focused on BRAF V600E-mutant metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC). This study demonstrated a significant improvement in response rates and durable efficacy, positioning EC + FOLFOX as a promising first-line treatment option for this high-risk patient group. The findings also provide further evidence for the role of precision medicine in mCRC, reinforcing the need to integrate targeted therapy into earlier treatment settings.

Annual Review | Dr. Jianyong Li: Advances in CLL/SLL Treatment in 2024 – BTK Inhibitors Leading the “Chemo-Free” Era

As we bid farewell to the past year and step into a new chapter, the field of chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) and small lymphocytic lymphoma (SLL) has seen remarkable progress. Targeted therapies, particularly Bruton's tyrosine kinase (BTK) inhibitors, have not only significantly improved patient survival outcomes but have also driven a paradigm shift away from traditional immunochemotherapy towards a "chemo-free" treatment model.
