    ESMO 2026 Head & Neck Melanoma Highlights OrigAMI-4, INTerpath-001, STARBOARD

    In this discussion we dived into the latest breakthroughs in head and neck cancer and melanoma from ESMO 2026. In this episode, we welcomed Dr. Ari Rosenberg from the University of Chicago, to discuss promising data on amivantamab for HPV-negative head and neck cancer, including its efficacy in frontline settings and important considerations for managing side effects. We also had the opportunity to talk to Dr. Sapna Patel from the University of Colorado, who shared insights on the INTerpath-001 study, exploring the role of personalized mRNA vaccines in the adjuvant setting for melanoma.   Additionally, we discussed the STARBOARD trial, which investigated the triplet therapy of pembrolizumab, encorafenib, and binimetinib for BRAF V600E/K-positive melanoma patients.   Tune in to hear our thoughts on how these findings may change clinical practice and the future of treatment options in oncology.   Key Points Amivantamab shows promising efficacy in HPV-negative head and neck cancer, particularly in the frontline setting, with a manageable toxicity profile that requires proactive side effect management. Personalized mRNA vaccines in the adjuvant setting for melanoma represent a novel approach, with the INTerpath-001 study comparing this strategy against current standards of care. The STARBOARD trial evaluates triplet therapy with pembrolizumab, encorafenib, and binimetinib in BRAF V600E/K-positive melanoma, with the potential to change clinical practice. Logistical challenges, including vaccine manufacturing timelines and treatment coordination, remain important considerations for implementing these emerging therapies.   Listen us on: Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/31BXhY9FM4gPWG10WgE11o    Follow us on social media: •⁠  ⁠X/Twitter: https://x.com/oncbrothers  •⁠  ⁠Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/oncbrothers  •⁠  Website: https://oncbrothers.com/    Don't forget to like, subscribe, and hit the notification bell for more updates from the Oncology Brothers! #HeadAndNeckCancer, #Melanoma, #mRNAVaccine, #OncologyBrothers
