Andreas Rimner, MD, gives an overview of his presentation titled, “Crossing the PACIFIC,” which he presented at the 2019 New York Lung Cancers Symposium. He evaluates some potential next steps for durvalumab (Imfinzi) following the practice-changing results from the PACIFIC trial.

Andrew M. Evens, DO, MSc, discusses the significance of the results from the phase III ECHELON-1 trial in which patients with stage III/IV classical Hodgkin lymphoma were treated with the combination of brentuximab vedotin plus doxorubicin, vinblastine, and dacarbazine.

Adil Daud, MD, compares the roles of immunotherapy versus dabrafenib plus trametinib targeted therapy combinations in patients with advanced melanoma. The latter combination is appropriate and even preventative in select patients, but the decision between checkpoint immune therapy and immunotherapy comes down to what is best for each patient.

George W. Sledge, Jr., MD, professor of medicine, Stanford University Medical Center, discusses the next steps for the phase III MONARH-2 trail following the positive interim analysis results presented during the 2019 European Society of Medical Oncology Congress.
