Lenvatinib plus pembrolizumab significantly improved efficacy versus sunitinib in treatment of advanced renal cell carcinoma (aRCC) in the phase 3 CLEAR study. We report results of an exploratory post hoc analysis of tumor response data based on baseline metastatic characteristics of patients who received lenvatinib plus pembrolizumab versus sunitinib, at the final overall survival analysis time point of CLEAR (cutoff: July 31, 2022). Treatment-naïve adults with aRCC were randomized to: lenvatinib (20 mg PO QD in 21-day cycles) plus pembrolizumab (n = 355; 200 mg IV Q3W); lenvatinib plus everolimus (not reported here); or sunitinib (n = 357; 50 mg PO QD; 4 weeks on/2 weeks off).

Trophoblast cell-surface antigen 2 (Trop-2) is highly expressed in HNSCC. Sacituzumab govitecan (SG) is a Trop-2-directed antibody-drug conjugate approved for patients with certain previously treated solid tumors.

We aim to assess the addition of XB2001 (anti-IL-1 alpha monoclonal antibody) plus trifluridine/tipiracil-bevacizumab in mCRC refractory to standard chemotherapy. This multicenter, randomized, double blind, non-comparative Phase I-II study (ClinicalTrials.
