The European Society for Medical Oncology (ESMO) had everything from practice changing Phase III data readouts to new solid tumor targets. On the latest BioCentury This Week podcast, BioCentury’s editors recap the biggest data presentations from last week’s annual ESMO meeting, including the impact of Phase III data for ADCs and bispecifics on the treatment landscape for tumors such as urothelial cancer and EGFR-mutant non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). The editors also discussed takeaways from the most recent progress in the confirmation of Monica Bertagnolli as director of the National Institutes of Health (NIH), and the latest step CMS has taken in implementing the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA). They also discussed Abingworth’s new $356 million co-investment fund, which, coupled with its 2021 vintage co-development fund, brings the VC firm’s firepower for investing in late-stage development programs to nearly $1 billion.
