CREST: phase III study of sasanlimab and Bacillus Calmette-Guérin for patients with Bacillus Calmette-Guérin-naïve high-risk non-muscle-invasive bladder cancer.

Bacillus Calmette-Guérin (BCG) is the standard of care for patients with high-risk non-muscle-invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC) after transurethral resection of bladder tumor (TURBT). BCG in combination with programmed cell death-1 (PD-1) inhibitors may yield greater anti-tumor activity compared with either agent alone. CREST is a phase III study evaluating the efficacy and safety of the subcutaneous PD-1 inhibitor sasanlimab in combination with BCG for patients with BCG-naive high-risk NMIBC.

Phase 2 study of bosutinib, a Src inhibitor, in adults with recurrent glioblastoma.

Tumor cell infiltration is a major mechanism of treatment escape in glioblastoma. Src is an intracellular tyrosine kinase that mediates tumor cell motility and invasiveness. We evaluated the efficacy and safety of bosutinib, a tyrosine kinase inhibitor that potently inhibits Src and Abl, in patients with recurrent glioblastoma.
