In today’s episode, supported by Coherus BioSciences, we had the pleasure of speaking with Justine Bruce, MD, about the ongoing evolution of nasopharyngeal carcinoma management. Dr Bruce is a faculty member in the Division of Hematology, Medical Oncology and Palliative Care within the Department of Medicine at the University of Wisconsin, as well as the director of the VA Medical Oncology Clinical Research Program and chair of the Protocol Review and Monitoring Committee at the University of Wisconsin Carbone Cancer Center in Madison.
In our exclusive interview, Dr Bruce discussed evolving treatment strategies for nasopharyngeal cancer, emphasizing the shift from chemoradiation followed by adjuvant chemotherapy to induction chemotherapy with gemcitabine and cisplatin. She also noted how toripalimab-tpzi (Loqtorzi) combined with gemcitabine and cisplatin showed improved overall survival (OS) in the first-line setting in the phase 3 JUPITER-02 trial (NCT03581786). Bruce also expressed her preference for OS as the gold standard for determining the efficacy of nasopharyngeal cancer treatments and noted the need for more US-based trials to reflect the local patient population.
