Strongly support my @UTMDAnderson colleague Dr. Hussein Tawbi @HTawbi_MD for #SITC Director election ❤️💐 👉Hussein is an internally renowned #physicianscientist immune-oncology leader who has helped redefine what immunotherapy can achieve in some of the most challenging clinical settings. 👉His leadership of the CheckMate 204 study established the role of nivolumab + ipilimumab in melanoma brain metastases, a historically underserved population, 👉He led RELATIVITY-047 which enabled the approval of nivolumab + relatlimab, introducing LAG-3 as a new checkpoint target. His voice and compassion, grounded in patient care and scientific rigor, would be an outstanding addition to the #SITC Board as we navigate the next era of immunotherapy innovation. 🚀

Strongly support Dr. Zhen Su @MyOncology , my friend, colleague, and mentor for SITC Director election. 💪❤️ 👉When he served as the global oncology leader at #MerckKGaA/#EMDSerono, he translated complex immune biology to approvals, then becaome impactful therapies for patients. He has multiple global approvals across agents such as #avelumab, #tepotinib, #erbitux and others. 👉Now as the CEO of #Marengo, he is a true architect with vision, taking first-in-class T-cell agonist programs from platform stage into human studies and secured strong partnerships. 👉Zhen has been a long-standing contributor to the #immuno-oncology community, including leadership roles within #SITC. His vision of bringing early discovery to global commercialization will continue shaping the development of next generation immunotherapies. 🚀

Appreciate @StephenVLiu and @CharuAggarwalMD organizing a fantastic US Focus Meeting Lung Cancer. I discussed 1L EGFR-mut NSCLC landscape evolution with friends and colleagues @riess_md @JuliaRotow @JustinGainor @ShirishGadgeel @BalazsHalmosMD. Nashville is a charming city with such fun characters.

For those who plan way in advance, September 2027 will be a tough month for lung cancer meetings! #ESMO27 in Barcelona, Spain will be September 17-21. #WCLC27 in Denver, USA will be September 11-14. Will be challenging to attend both in person; grateful for virtual options!

We discussed innovations in ADCs to overcome topo-payload ADC resistance. 🔥Novel payloads include dual-cytotoxic, radioligands, immune stimulators or engagers, oligonucleotides (siRNA), degraders, and small molecule inhibitors. 🤣 Yes, "Any-Drug-Conjugates (ADC)" ❤️💡
Mario Balsa@MarioBalsaMD

💥 Beyond traditional ADCs at #ELCC26! @LeXiuning ▪️Masked ADCs → tumor-activated targeting ▪️Nanobodies & peptides: better penetration, new epitopes ▪️Bicycle toxin conjugates: ultra-small, fast delivery 🎯 Innovation across 3 axes: target, linker, payload From ADCs to “anything-drug conjugates” @OncoAlert @myESMO @OncoReporte @_SEOM @gecp_org @Lung_Cancers

Please (re)watch the powerful Special Speech delivered by Dr. Ross Camidge @DRCamidge at #TTLC26 @IASLC An internationally renowned thoracic oncologist, Dr. Camidge shared something profoundly personal: his own diagnosis and treatment journey with stage IV #EGFR-mutant #NSCLC. His reflections were thoughtful and deeply human. It is a reminder that before we are physicians or patients, we are human beings: vulnerable yet resilient. Please: ❤️ Act with urgency. ❤️ Treat with respect and gentleness. ❤️ Move forward with courage and hope. @ShirishGadgeel @lungoncdoc @KarenReckampMD @TejasPatilMD

At #TTLC26, @DRCamidge shared powerful insights shaped by both clinical expertise and personal experience living with #lungcancer. His presentation reminds us why continued innovation in #lungcancer research is essential to improving patient outcomes every day. bit.ly/46YrbUc

❤️ ❤️ So happy and proud to wrap up a successful #TTLC26 @IASLC 💐🎊 👉 This year, we set new records: 🥇 🔥 the highest attendance, 🥇 🔥 the greatest number of submitted abstracts, and 🥇 🔥 unprecedented sponsorship support. 👉 This year, we hosted two extraordinary keynote speakers: my mentor Dr. John Heymach @MDAndersonNews and his mentor Dr. Bruce E. Johnson. Seeing multiple generations of thoracic oncology leadership on one stage was a powerful reminder that progress in our field is built on mentorship, collaboration, and legacy. Let it continue. ❤️ ❤️ Special appreciation to my dear co-chairs @ShirishGadgeel @KarenReckampMD and Dr. Paul Bunn, and outstanding @IASLC staff, especially Kelly Heemsbergen, for being consistently knowledgeable, responsive, and supportive behind the scenes. 👉 See you all again at hashtag #TTLC27

For #EGFR #PACC mutation #lungcancer, novel TKIs are in active investigation, the next key questions are: 👉1. Single vs. compound PACC mutations 👉2. co-mutation's impact to treatment 👉3. tumor immune microenvironment difference 👉4. strategies for overcoming resistance. Thank you ❤️@gotoPER #WinterLung26 @EdgardoSantosMD @MarkSocinski for providing this dynamics discussion platform
Edgardo Santos, MD, FACP, FASCO@EddieSantosMD

Outstanding presentation by Prof Xiuning Le from MDACC on EGFR PACC mutation; the importance of identifying and reporting them and the new clinical trials in this space. Here at the 23th WLC. @LeXiuning @MarkSocinski @OncologyInst @FLASCO_ORG @gotoPER #WLC26 @edgardo_ny

📖 New online from our group at @MDAndersonNews Mechanisms of Resistance to Trastuzumab-DXd in #LungCancer 🔬✨ Key findings: 👉 Payload resistance driven by #SLFN11 loss and copy-number gains in the efflux pump ABCC1/MRP1 👉 Secondary #HER2 extracellular domain mutations at the antibody binding site (e.g., D582, F595) 👉 Tumors with acquired payload resistance or domain IV mutations retain HER2 signaling and remain sensitive to TKIs, including #zongertinib and #sevabertinib 💡 🎊 🔥 This is the first comprehensive preclinical and clinical investigation of #ADC #MoR in lung cancer, with direct therapeutic implications. jto.org/article/S1556-…

Congratulations to 🌟🎊Dr. Ximeng Liu for been selected for support from the Lung Cancer Research Foundation (@lcrf_org ) for her project: “Deciphering response and resistance mechanisms to firmonertinib in #NSCLC patients with #EGFR #PACC mutations.” 🔬💡 Our journey has been remarkable: 👉 2021: Defined #EGFR #PACC mutations as a distinct structure–function subgroup in lung cancer. 👉 2023–2024: Partnered with ArriVent Biopharma on the first prospective trial dedicated to EGFR PACC patients — 68% response rate and 16.0 months PFS with #firmonertinib. 👉 2025: Launched the first global randomized phase III trial in EGFR PACC–mutant NSCLC (ALPACCA/FURMO-006; NCT07185997) 🌍🧪 👉 2026–2027: With @lcrf_org support, Dr. Liu will lead efforts to decipher resistance mechanisms and shape next-generation therapeutic strategies. 🚀 More exciting developments are on the horizon. lungcancerresearchfoundation.org/research/our-i…
