Episode Details

Daraxonrasib, a first-in-class oral RAS inhibitor, nearly doubled overall survival versus chemotherapy in previously treated metastatic pancreatic cancer, representing a potentially landmark advance in a historically difficult-to-treat disease. The antibody-drug conjugate datopotamab deruxtecan significantly improved progression-free and overall survival over chemotherapy in first-line triple-negative breast cancer, particularly for patients ineligible for immunotherapy. A Cochrane review of nearly 20,000 patients found anti-amyloid Alzheimer's therapies offer minimal clinically meaningful cognitive benefit while carrying meaningful safety risks, complicating their real-world use.
