Wungki Park, MD, MS, Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center, New York, NY, discusses the background and findings from the Phase II GLEAM study (NCT03816163) of zolbetuximab plus gemcitabine and nab-paclitaxel in patients with CLDN18.2-positive metastatic pancreatic adenocarcinoma (mPAC). The trial did not meet primary endpoints but did find a higher objective response rate and duration of response in the zolbetuximab arm. In addition, treatment with zolbetuximab plus gemcitabine and nab-paclitaxel in patients who had elevated circulating interferon gamma-associated interleukin-18 was associated with a longer overall survival, highlighting a potential subgroup that zolbetuximab could be investigated further in. This interview took place at the European Society for Medical Oncology (ESMO) Gastrointestinal Cancer 2026 Congress in Munich, Germany.
