❓What are the outcomes of checkpoint inhibitors after progression to TIL therapy in #melanoma?
👇Check the work led by the brilliant James Smithy of @MSKCancerCenter with multiple international groups including our team at @CCITdk
New #JITC short report: "Immune checkpoint inhibitor therapy after tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes in unresectable melanoma" jitc.bmj.com/content/14/6/e0…

🔵 Just published in @JNCI_Now: pCR and ctDNA clearance prognostic dynamics after neoadjuvant/perioperative IO
Pan-tumor reconstructed IPD analysis | 1,867 pCR + 352 ctDNA-clearance patients | 8 tumor types
-3-yr EFS after pCR ranges from 78.6% (#NSCLC) to 100% (dMMR-#CRC)
-No EFS benefit from postoperative adjuvant IO in patients achieving pCR (cross-trial)
-#ctDNA clearance shows heterogeneous prognostic value
📢A call towards an individualized neo/periop treatment

🔵 Our new paper in @JNCI_Now: do reimbursed drugs deliver in routine care what trials promised?
A new framework quantifies the efficacy-effectiveness gap from a national registry (🇩🇰,DAMMED).
In #melanoma:
- IO deviated only in ineligible pts (HR 1.61)
- Targeted therapy deviated even in eligible ones
🔍The method is exportable to any registry-backed disease.

How well do #melanoma trial results predict routine-care outcomes?
👉In first-line metastatic melanoma it turns on two things: trial eligibility and drug class.
New @JNCI_Now paper. 🇩🇰Danish registry, 1909 patients, vs reconstructed
trial data. 🧵

All complete responses to immunotherapy are created equal: across tumour types, not across response depth.
Two papers from @CCITdk , two methods, one conclusion. 🧵
CCIT-DK: National Center for Cancer Immune Therapy retweeted
📣 Our new paper in @JNCCN: acquired resistance to #immunotherapy (ARI) across 11 tumor types
Reconstructed IPD: 15,199 pts / 41 phase 3 trials
• 73.5% develop ARI by 3y
• Higher CR/PR → less ARI, regardless of tumor type
ARI may be determined by response depth, not histology
Cheers to @DoniaMarco & @CCITdk 🇩🇰

📣 New in #EJC: among PD-(L)1 responders, durability tracks response depth, not tumor type
Our nationwide cohort 🇩🇰: 2,127 responders (#melanoma, #RCC, #NSCLC)
• Within CR & within PR, PFS near-identical across tumors
• PR vs CR = dominant factor
Two papers, two faces of the same coin 🪙:
response depth, not tumor type, drives the risk of acquired resistance to IO
Trial-level (@JNCCN) + real-world (#EJC), same conclusion
Cheers to @DoniaMarco & @CCITdk

🆕 Nationwide real-world (DAMMED 🇩🇰) study comparing Dab/Tram vs Enco/Bini in 751 pts with BRAFm metastatic melanoma.
⚖️ No differences in efficacy
🧩 Consistent across subgroups

Acquired resistance to Cancer Immunotherapy
Free at bit.ly/4jptfZz
➡️ Metastatic cancers can be cured
➡️ Pts who initially respond can develop resistance (up to 65% of responders)
❗One of the top priorities in Oncology

New publication on #MPNsm from @CCITdk published in @BrJHaem: Peripheral blood lymphocytes (PBL) from patients with CALR mutant #MPNsm display increased levels of surface TGFb and GARP. Probably mediated by enhanced binding of activated platelets to PBL.

Despite manufacturing costs ~67 000 €, academic TIL therapy for patients with #melanoma is both cost-saving and cost-effective in 🇩🇰 and 🇱🇺
Publicly-funded #celltherapy can be sustainable!
