In this podcast, experts William J. Gradishar, MD, FASCO, FACP; Stephanie L. Graff, MD, FACP, FASCO; and Cynthia X. Ma, MD, PhD; discuss current and emerging therapeutic options, including next-generation endocrine therapies, to target the estrogen receptor signaling pathway for the treatment of hormone receptor–positive/HER2-negative (HR+/HER2–) metastatic breast cancer (MBC).

In this podcast, experts Charles M. Rudin, MD, PhD; Anne Chiang, MD, PhD, FASCO; and Jacob M. Sands, MD; discuss immune checkpoint inhibitor–based strategies in limited-stage (LS) and extensive-stage (ES) small cell lung cancer (SCLC), practical considerations for integrating novel agents such as tarlatamab and lurbinectedin, and the emerging role of antibody-drug conjugates in the treatment of ES-SCLC.

In this podcast, experts Shubham Pant, MD, MBBS; Alison Schram, MD; and Helena Yu, MD, discuss the role of RAS alterations in solid tumors, including gastrointestinal, gynecologic, and thoracic malignancies.

In today’s episode, the discussion features Guillermo Garcia-Manero, MD, who reviewed the clinical rationale for targeting BCL-2 in higher-risk myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) and outlined the phase 3 GLORA-4 trial (NCT06641414) evaluating lisaftoclax (APG-2575) plus azacitidine (Vidaza) in this population. Dr Garcia-Manero is the chair ad interim in the Department of Leukemia in the Division of Cancer Medicine, as well as leader of the MDS/AML Moon Shot Program, at The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center in Houston.
In the exclusive interview, Dr Garcia-Manero contextualized lisaftoclax as a next-generation BCL-2 inhibitor being advanced as a hypomethylating agent (HMA) partner strategy intended to improve on outcomes historically achieved with azacitidine alone in higher-risk MDS. He emphasized that GLORA-4 is designed as a registrational, randomized trial to rigorously assess whether adding BCL-2 inhibition to standard HMAs can meaningfully deepen responses and translate into clinically relevant benefit. He also characterized the regimen’s tolerability profile in a population that often requires careful supportive care and dose management.

In this podcast, experts Erika P. Hamilton, MD; Giuseppe Curigliano, MD, PhD; VK Gadi, MD, PhD; Jason Aboudi Mouabbi, MD, discuss frontline, second-line, and antibody-drug conjugate therapies for the treatment of HR-positive, HER2-negative metastatic breast cancer.
