Excerpt

The original article [1] contains two errors in Table 2:
1)
The data values in the rows ‘Disease control rate’ and ‘Objective response rate’ and the columns ‘With adverse events’ and ‘Without adverse events’ have mistakenly been interchanged between columns; the values ‘39 (32.77)’ and ‘6 (5.04)’ should be swapped with the values ‘82 (54.67)’ and ‘11 (7.33)’ respectively.
 
2)
The value for the row ‘Median progression-free survival (IQR)’ for the ‘HR/OR’ sub-column should be 0.69, not 0.79.

Keynote webinar | Spotlight on antibody–drug conjugates in cancer

Antibody–drug conjugates (ADCs) are novel agents that have shown promise across multiple tumor types. Explore the current landscape of ADCs in breast and lung cancer with our experts, and gain insights into the mechanism of action, key clinical trials data, existing challenges, and future directions.
