With Tal-Dara published and concerns about ataxia/ balance disorders lets take a deep dive on GPRC5D ataxia syndrome
-> The first report of a cerebellar syndrome from GPRC5D came from MCARH019 reported by Mailankody et al
-2/17 (12%) Grd 3 cerebellar syndrome
-6.5 and 8.4 mo's after infusion
-was a DLT at 450*10^6
My thoughts on new data from EHA. When considered in context of other recently published studies, these results should definitively end the practice of high-dose methotrexate prophylaxis in DLBCL. @JCO_ASCOascopubs.org/doi/10.1200/JCO…
Now that adjuvant pembro plus Belzutifan is approved by @usfda
How will you decide who needs 1 drug vs 2 drugs in adjuvant RCC
pT3 NO clear cell RCC , Fit pt .
What will you u give in adjuvant .
Do vote below and opine 🙂 @OncBrothers@yekeduz_emre@dr_yakupergun@DrChoueiri
Belzutifan Pembro now @US_FDA ✅ based off LITESPARK-022: PhIII (vs. Pembro) in adj RCC:
- 2.5yrs DFS: 75.8% vs. 68.6% (HR: 0.72)
- mOS NR
- 2.5yrs OS: 95.6% vs. 93.8% (HR: 0.78)
- AEs: 42.2% vs. 17.9% w/ Gr ≥ 3

🔹 Is There Still a Place for Mezigdomide in the Modern Myeloma Treatment Landscape?
Let’s see what data we have before we jump to conclusions?
🧵 ASCO 2026 | SUCCESSOR-2: Mezigdomide Kd :
1/🔬 let’s start with the study Design (very Critical)
SUCCESSOR-2 randomized RRMM patients with:
✅ Prior lenalidomide exposure
✅ Prior anti-CD38 monoclonal antibody exposure
✅ ≥1 prior line of therapy
To receive:
🟢 Mezigdomide Carfilzomib Dexamethasone (MeziKd)
vs
⚪ Carfilzomib Dexamethasone (Kd)
Primary endpoint: PFS

It’s about time we remove CNS ppx in DLBCL from the NCCN guidelines.

I am not sure about you but those of us first learned Cancer Pharmacology in late 1980s. This is like coolest Sci-Fi stuff-RASolute-302 is a pivotal Phase 3 clinical trial investigating daraxonrasib, a targeted oral inhibitor, for previously treated mPDAC. Don’t wake me up
I think there are two important messages here.
What is abundantly clear now is that prophylactic tocilizumab reduces the risk of CRS to less than 10%, with most of these cases being grade 1 that can be managed without requiring hospitalization or additional tocilizumab.
Equally important is the substantial cost reduction achieved with the lower, yet fully effective, prophylactic dose, leading to major cost savings for payers
I think 4 mg/kg is a great idea! Really cool concept and work by Hamadeh @szusmani et al looking at this concept…
we need more dose optimization work in this space especially for high-cost supportive care with bsAbs 👏

In HER2-mutant NSCLC, this is a highly instructive case.
The target is not fixed; the tumor keeps evolving under treatment pressure.
When serial biopsies show how the phenotype has changed, treatment can sometimes be adapted accordingly, even within the same molecular axis.
Zongertinib → T-DXd → zongertinib rechallenge.
A single case report, but a sharp biology lesson.

Hb and plt ok. No rash. No auto immune dz.
is this T LGL?
Could this be from Dara ?
