- Sam Chang interviews Roger Li about the MoonRISe-1 trial. This phase 3 study explores the use of TAR-210, an innovative intravesical delivery system for the tyrosine kinase inhibitor erdafitinib, targeting patients with intermediate-risk non-muscle-invasive bladder cancer harboring FGFR alterations. Dr. Li explains that TAR-210, administered via a quick in-office procedure, continuously releases e...

- Ashish Kamat hosts a discussion with Roger Li and Trinity Bivalacqua on the CORE-001 study evaluating cretostimogene grenadenorepvec and pembrolizumab for BCG-unresponsive CIS. Dr. Li highlights the 83% complete response rate at any time, 57.1% at 12 months, and 54.3% at 24 months, noting the therapy's durability and lack of progression to muscle-invasive or metastatic disease. The combination the...

- Sam Chang hosts Rob Svatek who discusses the PIVOT-006 trial. This phase three trial targets intermediate-risk, non-muscle invasive bladder cancer, comparing a novel therapy, Cretostimogene grenadenorepvec (Creto), against observation. The goal is to enroll 364 patients over 30 months to demonstrate a 10% improvement in recurrence-free survival. The trial focuses on patients who do not qualify as...

- Mark Tyson presents results from the BOND-003 study, evaluating the efficacy of cretostimogene grenadenorepvec monotherapy in treating BCG-unresponsive non-muscle-invasive bladder cancer. Cretostimogene, an oncolytic adenovirus, selectively targets and destroys cancer cells while sparing normal tissue and boosting antitumor immunity. The phase III study reported a 75.2% complete response rate, wit...
