Randomized Controlled Trial Multicenter StudyIbrutinib plus venetoclax in relapsed or refractory mantle cell lymphoma (SYMPATICO): a multicentre, randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled, phase 3 study.
The combination of ibrutinib and venetoclax leverages complementary mechanisms of action and has shown promising clinical activity in mantle cell lymphoma (MCL). This study evaluated the efficacy and safety of ibrutinib-venetoclax compared with ibrutinib-placebo in patients with relapsed or refractory MCL. ⋯ Pharmacyclics (an AbbVie Company) and Janssen Research and Development.

Randomized Controlled Trial Multicenter Study Comparative StudyThermal ablation versus surgical resection of small-size colorectal liver metastases (COLLISION): an international, randomised, controlled, phase 3 non-inferiority trial.
For patients with small-size colorectal liver metastases, growing evidence suggests thermal ablation to be associated with fewer adverse events and faster recovery than resection while also challenging resection in terms of local control and overall survival. This study assessed the potential non-inferiority of thermal ablation compared with surgical resection in patients with small-size resectable colorectal liver metastases. ⋯ Medtronic-Covidien.

Randomized Controlled Trial Multicenter Study Comparative StudyRucaparib versus chemotherapy for treatment of relapsed ovarian cancer with deleterious BRCA1 or BRCA2 mutation (ARIEL4): final results of an international, open-label, randomised, phase 3 trial.
In the ARIEL4 trial of rucaparib versus standard-of-care chemotherapy in patients with relapsed BRCA-mutated ovarian carcinoma, the primary endpoint was met, showing improved investigator-assessed progression-free survival with rucaparib. Here, we present the final overall survival analysis of the trial and other post-progression outcomes. ⋯ Clovis Oncology.
