In today’s episode, supported by Coherus BioSciences, we had the pleasure of speaking with Michael Dennis, MD, about recent updates to the nasopharyngeal carcinoma treatment paradigm. Dr Dennis is a physician at Dana-Farber Cancer Institute; as well as an instructor in medicine at Harvard Medical School, both in Boston, Massachusetts. In our exclusive interview, Dr Dennis discussed the latest National Comprehensive Cancer Center guideline updates for the treatment of patients with nasopharyngeal carcinoma; practice-informing data from the phase 3 JUPITER-02 trial (NCT03581786), which investigated first-line toripalimab-tpzi (Loqtorzi) plus chemotherapy in patients with recurrent or metastatic nasopharyngeal carcinoma; and ongoing developments in the locally advanced treatment setting.
