Can We Extend Beyond 2 Years of Adjuvant ALK TKI Established by ALINA and ELEVATE in Resected Early Stage ALK+ NSCLC a Disease with High Predilection for CNS Metastasis with Novel Clinical Trial Designs?
In addition, to reviewing the results of ALINA and ELEVATE, we propose two alternate novel clinical designs to build upon the 2-years of adjuvant 2G ALK TKIs.

Healing of Post-Operative Tracheal Disruption in a Patient with Thymic Carcinoma on Adjuvant Immunotherapy
Pneumomediastinum from tracheal perforations due to primary repair breakdown can occur as a complication of thymic cancer surgery. Immunotherapy may be a viable adjuvant treatment for thymic carcinoma patients with tracheal perforations.

Efficacy and Tolerability of Zenocutuzumab in Advanced NRG1 Fusion–Positive Cholangiocarcinoma: Results From the eNRGy Phase II Trial
PURPOSE: Presently, to our knowledge, there are no approved targeted therapies for neuregulin 1 gene fusion–positive ( NRG1 +) cholangiocarcinoma. Zenocutuzumab, a HER2 × HER3 bispecific antibody, is approved for previously treated, advanced/metastatic NRG1 + non–small cell lung cancer and pancreatic adenocarcinoma. Here, we report results for 22 patients with NRG1 + cholangiocarcinoma in the eNRGy trial. METHODS: eNRGy is a single-arm, phase II study of zenocutuzumab in advanced NRG1 + solid tumors. Patients were age 18 years and older and previously treated with or unsuitable for standard therapy. Zenocutuzumab 750 mg was administered intravenously once every 2 weeks. The primary end point was investigator-assessed overall response rate (ORR; RECIST v1.1). Secondary end points included duration of response (DOR), clinical benefit rate (CBR), progression-free survival (PFS), and safety. RESULTS: As of July 31, 2025, 22 patients (median age 57.5 years) with advanced NRG1 + cholangiocarcinoma were enrolled and had received a median of 1.0 (range, 0-6) prior therapies. In the 18 patients with tumor subtype data available, all had intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma. Three patients did not meet the protocol-defined criteria for inclusion in the efficacy analysis. Seven of 19 patients achieved a response, resulting in an ORR of 36.8% (95% CI, 16.3 to 61.6). The median DOR was 7.4 months and the median time to response was 1.9 months. The CBR was 57.9% (95% CI, 33.5 to 79.7). Median PFS was 9.2 months (95% CI, 3.9 to 11.1). Most treatment-related adverse events (TRAEs) were grade 1 and 2, and the most common were diarrhea (27.3%), fatigue (18.2%), and nausea (13.6%). One patient had a grade 3 TRAE of anemia. No patients discontinued treatment due to an AE. CONCLUSION: Zenocutuzumab demonstrated clinically meaningful and durable antitumor activity with a favorable safety profile in patients with advanced NRG1+ cholangiocarcinoma.
