The Gabriella Miller Kids First Pediatric Research Program (Kids First) has released its 36th study and introduced significant new data updates to two existing studies, further advancing efforts to uncover the genetic foundations of childhood cancers and congenital conditions. This brings the total data files available at the Kids First Data Resource Center (Kids First DRC) to more than 110,000.

BMS-986504, a first-in-class methylthioadenosine (MTA)-cooperative protein arginine methyltransferase 5 (PRMT5) targeting agent, showed promising antitumor activity in heavily pretreated patients with MTAP-deleted non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), according to results from the Phase 1CA240-0007 trial presented at the International Association for the Study of Lung Cancer 2025 World Conference on Lung Cancer (WCLC).

A multi-center, randomized phase III trial has found that a three-week hypofractionated radiotherapy (HypoRT) schedule with concurrent chemotherapy provides similar survival outcomes and reduced toxicity compared to the standard six-week conventional fractionated radiotherapy (ConvRT) schedule for patients with limited-stage small cell lung cancer (LS-SCLC). The results were presented today at the International Association for the Study of Lung Cancer (IASLC) 2025 World Conference on Lung Cancer (WCLC).

Older individuals between the ages of 75 and 80 who are eligible for lung surgery may achieve survival outcomes comparable to younger patients following lung cancer screening, according to research presented today at the International Association for the Study of Lung Cancer (IASLC) 2025 World Conference on Lung Cancer (WCLC).

Patients who underwent video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS) compared to open lobectomy had a significantly improved overall survival rate, according to a meta-analysis presented at the International Association for the Study of Lung Cancer (IASLC) 2025 World Conference on Lung Cancer (WCLC).

Interim results from the NADIM ADJUVANT Phase III trial, led by the Spanish Lung Cancer Group (GECP), suggest that adjuvant chemo-immunotherapy may reduce the risk of recurrence in patients with completely resected stage IB–IIIA non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) while maintaining an acceptable safety profile.

— Treating patients who have stage III non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) with durvalumab concurrent with chemoradiotherapy (CRT) and continuing as consolidation therapy did not improve overall survival compared to consolidation durvalumab alone, according to research presented today at the International Association for the Study of Lung Cancer (IASLC) 2025 World Conference on Lung Cancer (WCLC).
