At the 2025 Annual Meeting of the American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO), Professor Jiwei Huang, on behalf of the research team, delivered an oral presentation reporting the latest efficacy and safety data from a multicenter, single-arm, Phase II clinical study. The trial evaluated fruquintinib in combination with serplulimab as a first-line treatment for patients with metastatic or unresectable non–clear cell renal cell carcinoma (nccRCC).

At a recent international oncology conference, Professor Tom Powles from the Barts Cancer Centre in London presented the latest results from the RC48-G001 study. This global, multicenter Phase 2 trial evaluated disitamab vedotin (RC48) in patients with HER2-expressing, previously treated advanced urothelial carcinoma (UC). As a HER2-targeted antibody-drug conjugate (ADC) utilizing a monomethyl auristatin E (MMAE) payload, RC48 has previously demonstrated efficacy in biomarker-selected cohorts in China. This global study further validates its clinical utility across a broader, international patient population.

At a recent academic session, Professor Taigo Kato from the Osaka University Graduate School of Medicine presented the preliminary results of the MONSTAR-SCREEN-3 study. The study investigates the clinical utility of an ultra-sensitive whole-genome sequencing (WGS)-based circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) assay for the detection of molecular residual disease (MRD) in patients with resectable renal cell carcinoma (RCC).

At a recent international medical congress, Dr. Steffen Rausch from the University Hospital Tübingen presented the latest analysis of pathological outcomes and disease-free survival (DFS) from the KEYNOTE-905 study. This randomized, open-label Phase III trial evaluates the efficacy and safety of perioperative enfortumab vedotin (EV) combined with pembrolizumab in patients with muscle-invasive bladder cancer (MIBC) who are ineligible for cisplatin-based chemotherapy.

At a recent international academic symposium, Dr. Sophie Merrick from the Medical Research Council Clinical Trials Unit at University College London (UCL) reported the Patient-Reported Outcome (PRO) data from the RAMPART trial. The study aimed to evaluate the dynamic impact of adjuvant durvalumab plus tremelimumab versus active monitoring on the quality of life (QoL) of patients with resected renal cell carcinoma (RCC).

For patients with advanced renal cell carcinoma (RCC) who have progressed after anti-PD-(L)1 therapy, a consensus standard of care is currently lacking. Belzutifan, a first-in-class HIF-2α inhibitor, combined with the VEGFR-TKI lenvatinib, has emerged as a promising therapeutic strategy. At a recent academic conference, Professor Robert J. Motzer from Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center (MSKCC) presented the latest results from the randomized, open-label, Phase 3 LITESPARK-011 study.

At the recent genitourinary oncology symposium, Dr. Pooja Ghatalia from Fox Chase Cancer Center presented the primary clinical outcomes of the RETAIN 2 trial. She also provided an integrated analysis of the RETAIN 1 and RETAIN 2 trials, focusing on the role of circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) in guiding response-adapted bladder preservation for patients with muscle-invasive bladder cancer (MIBC).

At the recent ASCO Annual Meeting, Professor Michiel S. van der Heijden from the Netherlands Cancer Institute (NKI) presented the latest biomarker analysis from the Phase III NIAGARA trial. The study investigated the dynamics of urinary tumor DNA (utDNA) and circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) in patients with muscle-invasive bladder cancer (MIBC) receiving perioperative durvalumab in combination with chemotherapy, evaluating their utility in predicting pathological complete response (pCR) and event-free survival (EFS).

During a recent clinical oncology symposium, Professor Matthew D. Galsky from the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai presented the primary results of the Phase 3 KEYNOTE-B15 study (also known as EV-304). This trial evaluated the efficacy and safety of perioperative enfortumab vedotin (EV) in combination with pembrolizumab for patients with cisplatin-eligible muscle-invasive bladder cancer (MIBC).

At a recent major international oncology conference, Dr. Matthew D. Galsky from Mount Sinai presented updated data from a Phase 1 clinical trial (Late-Breaking Abstract, LBA639) and associated biomarker analysis of FX-909, a first-in-class peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma (PPARG) inhibitor, in patients with advanced urothelial carcinoma (UC). The study data were simultaneously published in the top-tier journal Nature Medicine.
