EXPERT ANALYSIS FROM THE 2015 ASCO ANNUAL MEETING

References

CHICAGO – Dr. William J. Gradishar says bevacizumab may not be dead, T-DM1 is definitely not dead, and the jury is still out on bisphosphonates preventing recurrence, based on presentations at the annual meeting of the American Society of Clinical Oncology.

In a video interview, Dr. Gradishar, the Betsy Bramsen Professor of Breast Oncology at Northwestern University, Chicago, also outlines results presented on newer agents, including the CKD 4/6 inhibitor palbociclib and neratinib, a pan-HER tyrosine kinase inhibitor.

Dr. Gradishar had no financial disclosures related to these studies.
