At #MAO2025, Dr. Camille Chakiba presented the PRIORITY study on cancer patients’ care goals:
📌 Key finding: Patients 70+ prioritize treatment efficacy, while oncologists emphasize toxicity risks more than patients themselves.
💡 Takeaway: Goals must be discussed case by case!
#Oncogeriatrics
📢 #MAO2025 | Chemo + IO in metastatic NSCLC for ≥65:
🔹 Meta-analysis (Dr. Emeline Orillard)
✅ Improved OS & PFS with IO in ≥65
❗ No significant benefit after 75 (small sample size)
📊 Update ongoing + need for raw data sharing.

🔬 ADC & elderly breast cancer patients 👵🎗️
At #MAO2025, experts highlighted:
✅ Efficacy signal in 65+ but limited data for older patients
⚠️ More toxicity & treatment discontinuation
🚀 Include elderly in innovation but with vigilance
#Oncogeriatrics #BreastCancer #ADC #CancerResearch
📢 Capucine Baldini at MAO 2025:
• ✅ No loss of efficacy of immunotherapy in older patients
• ❓ Immunosenescence impact? Still unclear
• 🔍 Need for prospective clinical & translational data
#MAO2025 #OncoGeriatrics #Immunotherapy
9.5% MET and 7.9% EGFR detected in pts w lung SqCC with no smoking history.
Important to improve testing in this group. We are finding more of this with reflex testing in early stage disease.

🚨 Excited to share our work : "Systemic treatment among frail older patients with cancer".
✅ 3-month OS 81.8% when guided by geriatric assessments.
⚠️ Loss of ADL and cumulative frailty factors associated with poorer survival

Can patterns of progression on IO, inform future decisions?

Can gender & genetics impact alectinib tox? @jtoonline.bsky.social
- 215pts with ALK+ NSCLC
- women had ⬆️g3+ tox (f v m: 56% v 34% p=0.001), 35% had ⬆️trough levels p<0.001
- Pts with SNP affecting alectinib metabolism (PPAR-α 209G>A) had ⬆️g3+ tox
