Purpose: Datopotamab deruxtecan (Dato-DXd) is a trophoblast cell-surface antigen-2-directed antibody-drug conjugate with a highly potent topoisomerase I inhibitor payload. The TROPION-Lung05 phase II trial (ClinicalTrials.gov identifier: NCT04484142) evaluated the safety and clinical activity of Dato-DXd in patients with advanced/metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) with actionable genomic alterations progressing on or after targeted therapy and platinum-based chemotherapy.

Methods: Patients received Dato-DXd 6 mg/kg or docetaxel 75 mg/m once every 3 weeks. Dual primary end points were progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS).
Attenuated measles virus (MV) exerts its oncolytic activity in malignant pleural mesothelioma (MPM) cells that lack type-I interferon (IFN-I) production or responsiveness. However, other cells in the tumor microenvironment (TME), such as myeloid cells, possess functional antiviral pathways. In this study, we aimed to characterize the interplay between MV and the myeloid cells in human MPM.

Patients And Methods: All patients from 10 centers who received a 2L after a first-line CT-IO were included.
Introduction: Up to 30% patients newly diagnosed with advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) present with brain metastases. In the absence of oncogenic addiction, first-line immunotherapy, alone or in combination with chemotherapy, is the current standard of care. This review aims to synthesize the available data regarding the efficacy of immunotherapy in these patients, and to discuss the possibility of its being coordinated with local treatments such as radiotherapy.
