Vivek Subbiah: Global Access to Tumor-Agnostic Therapies

Vivek Subbiah, Chief of Early-Phase Drug Development at the Sarah Cannon Research Institute, shared a post on LinkedIn:

“Hot off the press.
Just published for American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO) Annual ASCO26 meeting.

  • Pleased to share with the world our new paper in ASCO’s flagship journal – Journal Of Clinical Oncology
  • Tumor-Agnostic Therapies: Translating Scientific Breakthroughs Into Global Implementation’
  • Led by the brilliant Jia Jenny Liu and Juliana Rodrigues Beal, Niamh Coleman, Benedikt Westphalen, Giuseppe Curigliano, Herbert Loong, MBBS FRCP FASCO
  •  Since the FDA’s landmark 2017 approval of pembrolizumab for MSI-H tumors,we have 9 tumor-agnostic drugs approved.
  • <50% of eligible patients receive matched therapies. We mapped barriers across Europe | Asia-Pacific | Latin America | Africa | Middle East

 We propose a 4-pillar framework:

  • Biomarker testing infrastructure
  • Innovative trial designs
  • Harmonized regulatory and reimbursement pathways
  • Genomically competent workforce precision medicine

Yes! Science is universal. Access shouldn’t depend on your geography.”
