- Zipalertinib plus chemotherapy significantly extends progression-free survival in first-line EGFR lung canceron September 14, 2026 at 1:50 am
Adding zipalertinib to platinum-pemetrexed chemotherapy significantly improved progression-free survival in patients receiving first-line treatment for advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) harboring EGFR exon 20 insertion mutations, according to results presented at the International Association for the Study of Lung Cancer (IASLC) 2026 World Conference on Lung Cancer (WCLC).
- First-line trastuzumab deruxtecan significantly improves progression-free survival in HER2-mutant lung canceron September 14, 2026 at 1:50 am
First-line treatment with trastuzumab deruxtecan (T-DXd) significantly improved progression-free survival compared with pembrolizumab plus platinum-based chemotherapy in patients with advanced or metastatic HER2-mutant non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), according to primary results from the phase 3 DESTINY-Lung04 trial presented at the International Association for the Study of Lung Cancer (IASLC) 2026 World Conference on Lung Cancer (WCLC).
- Update shows sustained overall survival benefit with adjuvant osimertinib in resected EGFR-mutated lung canceron September 14, 2026 at 1:50 am
An exploratory 8-year landmark update from the Phase III ADAURA trial showed that adjuvant osimertinib continued to provide a long-term overall survival benefit for patients with completely resected, EGFR-mutated stage IB–IIIA non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). The findings were presented at the International Association for the Study of Lung Cancer (IASLC) 2026 World Conference on Lung Cancer (WCLC).
- Zidesamtinib demonstrates 93% response rate in ROS1-positive lung canceron September 14, 2026 at 1:50 am
New results from the global phase 1/2 ARROS-1 trial showed clinically meaningful activity with zidesamtinib in patients with advanced or metastatic ROS1-positive non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) who had not previously received a tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI). The findings were presented at the International Association for the Study of Lung Cancer (IASLC) 2026 World Conference on Lung Cancer (WCLC).
- Amivantamab-chemotherapy demonstrates longest overall survival reported for lung cancer with EGFR mutationon September 14, 2026 at 1:50 am
Results from the phase 3 PAPILLON study show that first-line amivantamab plus carboplatin-pemetrexed (amivantamab-chemotherapy) was associated with numerically longer overall survival compared with chemotherapy in patients with previously untreated advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) with EGFR exon 20 insertion (Ex20ins) mutations. The findings were presented at the International Association for the Study of Lung Cancer (IASLC) 2026 World Conference on Lung Cancer (WCLC).
