Symposium
24th Annual Highlights of the 2025 San Antonio Breast Cancer Symposium
Presented by Fox Chase Cancer Center and the Temple Health Office for Continuing Medical Education, this education program is designed to help medical, radiation, and surgical oncologists, gynecologists, and radiologists translate the data from key presentations of the 2025 San Antonio Breast Cancer Symposium into practice. New options for the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of breast cancer and premalignant breast disease will be discussed. In addition, we will address new strategies for optimizing existing treatments.

Testing the Addition of an Anti-Cancer Drug, Gemcitabine, to Usual Treatment (BCG Alone) in People Whose Non-Muscle Invasive Bladder Cancer (NMIBC) Came Back After Prior BCG Therapy (GAIN-BCG)
This phase III trial compares the effect of adding gemcitabine to intravesical Bacillus Calmette Guerin (BCG) versus intravesical BCG alone in patients with non-muscle invasive bladder cancer that has come back after a period of improvement (recurrent).

Combined Tests Could Reduce Unnecessary Bladder Removal
Combining a visual inspection of the bladder with a blood test to check for the presence of circulating tumor DNA can accurately predict which bladder cancer patients still have cancer in their bladder after treatment — and which do not. The findings presented today by Fox Chase Cancer Center researchers could someday help urologists identify which bladder cancer patients can safely avoid undergoing bladder removal, a risky and life-altering surgery.

Blood Test Predicts Which Bladder Cancer Patients May Safely Skip Surgery
Circulating tumor DNA, or ctDNA, can predict metastatic risk in patients who receive bladder-sparing treatment for muscle-invasive bladder cancer, but it is not a good predictor of local recurrence within the bladder, according to new data presented today by Fox Chase Cancer Center researchers.

Exploring the Neuroprotective Potential of Cannabidiol (CBD) in Preventing Oxaliplatin (Ox)-Induced Neuropathy: A Prospective Study
This phase II trial tests the effect of hemp-based cannabidiol (CBD) in preventing oxaliplatin (Ox)-induced peripheral neuropathy (OIPN) in patients with colorectal cancer (CRC) that has spread to nearby tissue or lymph nodes and cannot be removed by surgery (locally advanced unresectable) or that has spread from where it first started (primary site) to other places in the body (metastatic).

Pembrolizumab Maintenance After Enfortumab Vedotin/Pembrolizumab Induction in Frontline Metastatic Urothelial Carcinoma (IMPROEV)
This is a single-arm, open-label, non-randomized Phase II trial evaluating the efficacy of induction therapy with enfortumab vedotin (EV) plus pembrolizumab (P) for 18 weeks (6 cycles), followed by maintenance pembrolizumab in treatment-naïve patients with metastatic urothelial carcinoma (mUC).
