As we enter the final week of reporting season, the Australian market is set to open in the red, following the Dow Jones dropping 700 points on Friday in the US, the worst day for the Dow this year so far. This comes from the release of soft US data, including a decline in consumer sentiment, home sales dropping more than expected and a five-year inflation outlook survey higher-than-expected. The economic data sparked concerns among US investors over a slowing economy and sticky inflation. Bank stocks were sold off and losses advanced toward the close on Friday, amid news headlines of additional tariffs and other government policies moving markets. The Dow Jones dropped 1.67%, bringing its two-day losses to 1,200 points. The S&P500 dropped 1.71%, the second negative session for the index after closing at a record on Wednesday. And the tech- heavy Nasdaq declined by over 2%. Australian shares declined on Friday, down 0.32% with consumer discretionary stocks weighing down on the market the most, while the materials sector advanced. What to watch today:As we enter the final week of reporting season, the Australian market is set to open lower, with the SPI futures suggesting a drop of 0.77% at the open this morning, following US equities. In commodities, Crude oil has dropped 2.87%, trading at US$70.40 per barrel, as concerns over Russian supply disruptions provided support while uncertainty loomed over a potential Ukraine peace deal. Gold is trading slightly lower at US$2,934 an ounce, remaining close to its record high from the previous session at US$2,950. Investors moved to the safe haven metal amid rising global uncertainties.And iron ore is trading higher at US$107.13 per tonne, its highest in four months amid strong demand expectations from major consumers. Over 20 listed companies are set to report their earnings results today, including Adairs (ASX:ADH), APA Group (ASX:APA), Lovisa (ASX:LOV), Lynas Rare Earths (ASX:LYC) and Regis Healthcare (ASX:REG), just to name a few. Stocks going ex-dividend today include Hansen Technologies Limited (ASX:HSN), Santos (ASX:STO) and Vicinity Centres (ASX:VCX). Remember that this often sees share prices fall, as investors take their profits. Trading Ideas:Bell Potter have upgraded their recommendation on Telix Pharmaceuticals (ASX:TLX) from a Hold to a Buy after the pharmaceutical group pre-released FY24 revenues. Bell Potter's 12- month price target is amended from $21.60 to $36.00, and at TLX's current share price of $30.12, this implies just over 19% share price growth in a year. Trading Central have identified a bearish signal in PWR Holdings (ASX:PWH) indicating that the stock price may fall from the close of $7.34 to the range of $5.20 - $5.70 over 67 days, according to the standard principles of technical analysis.

Dr. Lillian Siu and Dr. Melvin Chua discuss the new technologies and novel therapeutics that were featured at the 2024 ASCO Breakthrough meeting. TRANSCRIPT Dr. Lillian Siu: Hello and welcome to the ASCO Daily News Podcast. I'm Dr. Lillian Siu, a medical oncologist and director of the Phase 1 Trials Program at the Princess Margaret Cancer Center in Toronto, Canada, and a professor of medicine at the University of Toronto. On today's episode, we'll be discussing key takeaways from the 2024 ASCO Breakthrough meeting in Yokohama, Japan. Joining me for this discussion is Dr. Melvin Chua, who served as the chair of Breakthrough's Program Committee. Dr. Chua is the head of the Department for Head, Neck and Thoracic Cancers in the Division of Radiation Oncology at the National Cancer Center in Singapore. Our full disclosures are available in the transcript of this episode. Dr. Chua, it's great to be speaking with you today and congratulations on a very successful Breakthrough meeting. Dr. Melvin Chua: Thanks Dr. Siu. It was really inspiring to come together again to showcase the innovative work of world-renowned experts, clinicians, researchers, med-tech pioneers, and drug developers from around the globe. Our theme this year was inclusivity and thus it was important to bring people together again in the Asia Pacific region and to foster international collaborations that are so important in advancing cancer care. This year, we invited 65 international faculty, of which 55% were from Asia. Also, importantly, we achieved approximately a 50-50 split for male to female representation. These are remarkable statistics for the meeting, and we really hope to retain this for future Breakthrough [meetings]. Dr. Lillian Siu: The meeting featured renowned keynote speakers who shared great insights on new technologies and therapies that are shaping the future of drug development and care delivery. Let's first talk about artificial intelligence and the keynote address by Dr. Andrew Trister. He gave a very interesting talk titled, “Plaiting the Golden Braid: How Artificial Intelligence Informs the Learning Health System.” What are the key messages from his talk? Dr. Melvin Chua: Couldn't agree with you more, Dr. Siu. Dr. Trister is the chief medical and scientific officer of Verily, a precision health company. He previously worked in digital health and AI at The Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, and worked at Apple where he led clinical research and machine learning with Apple partners. But perhaps it was really his background and training as a radiation oncologist that was most pertinent as he was able to weave both the components of new AI models and the applications and pitfalls in the clinic to the audience. Dr. Trister provided a very high-level view through the history of AI and showcased the progression of the different AI models and he basically explained between deep and shallow methods as well as deductive logic versus inductive probabilistic methods. He then provided several clinical examples where these models have shown their utility in the clinic, for example, pathology and so forth. At the same time, he illustrated several pitfalls with these models. So overall, I think Dr. Trister's talk was very well received by the audience with several key messages, including the importance of [using] high-quality data as the basis of a good AI model. AI was also addressed in an Education Session that looked at Artificial Intelligence in the Cancer Clinic. And we had a panel of experts that highlighted current progress and successes with AI in the clinic, advances with AI assisted pathology for clinical research and precision medicine, large language models (LLMs) for applications in the clinic, and how we could leverage AI in precision oncology. And from this session, I had several key takeaways. Dr. Alexander Pearson [of the University of Chicago] gave a very illustrative talk on how multimodal information across clinical omics, radiological information and multi omics could be used to improve diagnostic tasks and clinical prediction across different cancers. And Dr. Joe Yeong [of Singapore General Hospital] gave a very good talk on how AI can be applied in digital pathology to accelerate research in immunology and help in the development of immunotherapies. Dr. Danielle Bitterman [of Brigham and Women's Hospital] shared very good examples of how LLMs could be used in a clinic. And I think the example that really stood out for me was how LLMs could be deployed to create responses to patient queries. And of course, the big question in the room was: How could AI eventually encapsulate compassion in their response? I think this again showcased how LLMs could really help to accelerate our clinical work going forward. And ultimately circling back to data, Dr. Caroline Chung [of MD Anderson] gave a very poignant description on the importance of data quality and how poor-quality data could eventually lead to underperforming AI models. So all in all, I think this was a great session. And what do you think, Dr. Siu? Dr. Lillian Siu: Melvin, I totally agree with you. I like all your comments and I really enjoyed the keynote as well as the session on AI in the cancer clinic chaired by Dr. Pearson. I think all these sessions were really informative. Discussions on the latest AI and machine learning, algorithms and technologies on digital pathology, LLMs and big data, as you said, really enables the attendees, especially clinicians like me, to gain a deep understanding of how AI can be translated to practical applications. Dr. Melvin Chua: Great. So, Dr. Siu, let's talk about some of the novel therapeutics that were featured at the meeting. Again, this was an important session for Breakthrough, and it's always been there. So could you share some highlights from the sessions on novel drug development from your perspective? Dr. Lillian Siu: Yes, indeed. Drug development is such an exciting aspect of this meeting. On Day 3 of the meeting, we had a keynote by Dr. Shimon Sakaguchi of Osaka University, who discussed “Targeting Regulatory T cells (Tregs) in Cancer: The Science, Trials, and Future.” And he talked about T cells, especially Treg biology, the role of Tregs in immune regulation, new developments in Treg immuno-oncology drugs, and how we can actually target Tregs to treat early cancers, etc. This talk is particularly exciting because there are now anti CCR8 antibodies in the clinic that specifically target Tregs, and some early signals of anti-tumor activities are already being observed. Dr. Sakaguchi also emphasized the importance of combination sequence and timing of drugs for the successful use of cancer immunotherapeutic agents. I also want to emphasize the Education Session that followed, titled, “The Future of Immunotherapy, New Drugs and New Ideas.” In that particular session, we heard about engineering T-cell immunity to eradicate tumors. We heard about CAR T-cell therapy in GI cancers, novel immunotherapeutic combinations, and T-cell engagers, which are bispecifics in cancer. While success with some of these immunotherapeutic modalities, such as cell therapies and T-cell engagers have been largely seen in hematological malignancies, we are beginning to observe efficacy signals in solid tumors. For example, the CAR T targeting Claudin18.2 in gastrointestinal cancers and the recently approved FDA-approved DLL3/CD3 bispecific T-cell engager, tarlatamab, in small cell lung cancer are really exciting examples. We also heard from investigators who are exploring neoadjuvant therapies in the neoadjuvant therapy session, and the key takeaway from that session is that we have growing interest in using neoadjuvant therapy or perioperative therapy. In other words, neoadjuvant plus adjuvant therapy in different cancers. In the neoadjuvant session, there were updates provided by different experts on the roles of neoadjuvant therapy in melanoma, liver cancer, bladder cancer, and nasopharyngeal cancer. Increasingly, there is randomized trial evidence to support the use of neoadjuvant therapy or perioperative immunotherapy in several cancer types with survival-based endpoints. Very exciting indeed. Dr. Melvin Chua: Indeed, I couldn't agree with you more. I think one of the things that went into designing the case-based discussions this year was that we wanted to talk about cancers that were relevant to this part of the world and hence we again showcased lung cancers, gastric cancers and melanomas, and whereby we have again perspectives from an expert from the West coupled to an expert from the East, thereby showcasing the diversity of practice around the world. The other thing that we did this year was we decided to pair the case-based discussions with the keynotes and the Education Sessions as well. For example, on Day 3, we had Dr. Sakaguchi speak on Tregs, as you mentioned. And this was followed by an in-depth session on new immunotherapies, and then followed by a case-based discussion on different melanoma cases on the role of neoadjuvant immunotherapy in this disease, and the strikingly relevance of response to prognostication. This is an important trait that we're seeing now that seems to pan out across different cancers, where we find that neoadjuvant response to combination systemic therapies and/or radiotherapy is a strong prognosticator. Dr. Lillian Siu: So, Dr. Chua, we've discussed some breakthrough treatments and promising advances in cancer care, and we've touched upon some barriers to success in cancer treatment. I would like to ask you about the keynote address by Dr. Raffaella Casolino of the World Health Organization, who spoke passionately about efforts by the WHO and its partners to build equity in cancer care. Can you share some highlights with us? Dr. Melvin Chua: Absolutely, Dr. Siu. In spite of the tremendous advances we've seen in recent years in oncology, there are still major disparities in cancer care, such as cost and access, which affect patients worldwide. I think Dr. Casolino's talk was a very nice overview whereby she showed, first of all, the WHO's impact in terms of the WHO Cancer Resolution initiative that was implemented in 2017, where through this initiative, WHO has impacted 100 countries, invested $1 billion in funds, and that has led to millions of lives saved. But she then really drilled down to some of the key examples of the focus of the WHO in terms of equalizing care in cancer. I think one which struck me was the appreciation of the disparities in the clinical trials landscape. I think it is clear that there's still a huge barrier to clinical trials between the high- and middle-income countries and the low- and middle-income countries, and the majority of clinical trials these days are industry sponsored and we really need to look at leveling the playing field in this regard. Then she highlighted the WHO's work on trying to lower the barriers to precision oncology. And I think there are several issues in that sense, but I think what the WHO has really worked hard on is promoting education for genomic medicine, where they've done several reviews with experts around the world to educate the field across the world on how we interpret and apply genomics in the clinic. So all in all, it was very interesting to hear Dr. Casolino's insights from a policy perspective, and again, this emphasizes that there's so much work to be done at the end of the day and the dialogue needs to continue. We also heard about policy, academic and industry perspectives in the context of clinical trials, and that led to a discussion on real-world evidence generation for regulatory approvals. It was very nice that we had a session on that at the end of Breakthrough 2024 (Real-World Evidence and Clinical Trials: Beyond the Ivory Tower). And in that session, we heard from Dr. Shaalan Beg [of the NIH], and Dr. Janet Dancey [of Queen's University] who represented views from academia and Dr. Hidetoshi Hayashi [of Kindai University Hospital] shared perspectives on decentralized trials. I'd like to encourage our listeners to watch these sessions if they were unable to attend. The content is very rich, and I'm sure they'll learn from it. Dr. Lillian Siu: Thank you so much, Dr. Chua. Is there anything else you would like to cover before we wrap up the podcast today? Dr. Melvin Chua: Thank you, Dr. Siu. The thing I really want to emphasize is, apart from all these Educational Sessions and having very eminent keynote speakers, one of the key points that we really want to bring out for Breakthrough is to showcase the high-quality research. This year we had 300 abstracts submitted and they were all high quality, cutting across trials, omics research, AI and technology, and eventually we selected 235 of them and we were able to showcase some of them across three oral sessions over three days. I think this is an important component of Breakthrough that we really wish to continue building upon where people are now excited to use this forum to present their work. Dr. Lillian Siu: Thank you so much, Dr. Chua. I really enjoyed our discussions today. I look forward to seeing how the Breakthrough meeting will continue to grow in future years. Dr. Melvin Chua: Thank you again, Dr. Siu. Thank you for all your leadership and efforts in making Breakthrough a successful meeting series the past few years.

Gains were led by the gold miners, with Emerald Resources up 6%, Ramelius up 4.2% and Evolution up 4.1%. Gains of more than 1% for Cochlear, Suncorp and Resmed. It was a sell off for energy and real estate stocks driving the losses today.

Wall Street tumbled on Tuesday to close out a losing month following the release of the latest inflation related data and ahead of the Fed's latest interest rate decision out on Wednesday US time. The S&P500 fell 1.57%, the Dow Jones lost 1.5% and the tech-heavy Nasdaq tumbled 2.04%. For the month of April, the three key indices are set to post a notable loss. Higher-than-expected wages data has raised investor concerns of the rate cut outlook out of the Fed. For the first quarter, the employment cost index which measures wages and benefits, climbed 1.2% which was above economists' expectations of a 1% rise.Across the European markets overnight, markets closed in the red to record their first negative month since October as investors assessed the latest slew of earnings results. The STOXX600 fell 0.6% on Tuesday, Germany's DAX lost 1.03%, the French CAC declined 0.99% and, in the UK, the FTSE100 closed Tuesday's session down just 0.04%. In Asia overnight, markets closed mostly higher as investors assessed factory activity figures out of China which came in at an expansion to 50.4 in April compared to 50.8 in March which beat economists' expectations but indicated a slower pace of activity expansion in the world's second largest economy. Japan's Nikkei closed flat, Hong Kong's Hang Seng index rose 0.09%, and South Korea's Kospi index rose 0.17%. The local market has started the week on a green run, with the key index closing Tuesday's session up 0.35% led by consumer discretionary and real estate stocks, which are two of the rate sensitive sectors. Lithium miners and explorers got a much-needed boost yesterday on a rise in the price of lithium carbonate, which sent Arcadium Lithium to the top of the ASX200 winners with an 8.4% rise, while IGO rose 7.3% and Liontown Resources added 2.9%. Investors got a boost from Australia's retail spend data coming out yesterday for March indicating a 0.4% fall in consumer spend, which was well below the 0.2% rise economists were expecting. Retail spend is a key driver of inflation and this reading is a key supporting factor for the RBA to realise some key inflation drivers are easing, which supports the notion to maintain rates at the current level instead of considering another rate hike. Earnings season continues in Australia for the latest quarter which saw investors respond with mixed reactions on Tuesday. Australian fuel supplier and producer Ampol fell 3.3% after reporting a 21% drop in its Lytton Refiner Margin and a 7.3% decline in refinery production over the last three months. What to watch today:Ahead of the midweek trading session here in Australia the SPI futures are expecting the ASX to open the day down 1.20%, tracking the global sell-off overnight.On the commodities front this morning, oil is down 0.92% at US$81.96/barrel, gold is down 1.61% at US$2295/ounce and iron ore is up 0.35% at US$110.54/tonne.AU$1.00 is buying US$0.65, 102.26 Japanese Yen, 52.05 British Pence and NZ$1.10. Trading Idea:Bell Potter has downgraded Telix Pharmaceuticals (ASX:TLX) from a buy to a hold and maintain a $14.50 price target on the leading cancer imaging and therapy agent pharmaceuticals company following the release of an outstanding 1Q24 revenue growth and a major inflection point approaching for the company through its first therapeutic asset being a crucial piece of the long-term value proposition. The downgrade to a hold is simply due to valuation as the share price has been on a run recently, and this is the first downgrade since Bell Potter first initiated coverage of the company in 2021.
Wall St closed higher overnight as tech shares climbed higher following concerns of persistent inflation. The S&P500 rallied 0.74%, the tech-heavy Nasdaq climbed 1.68% while the Dow Jones closed flat. In terms of US stocks, Nvidia jumped 4.1%, Amazon gained 1.7% and Alphabet ended the day more than 2% in the green.Over in Europe, markets closed lower overnight after the European Central Bank held rates steady. The STOXX600 closed 0.4% lower with most sectors in the red including banks which lost 2.4. Germany's DAX lost 0.79%, the French CAC lost 0.27% and over in the UK the FTSE100 fell nearly half a percent.Locally yesterday, the ASX200 fell 0.44% with losses lead by the information technology and financial sectors, losing 1.71% and 1.3% respectively. This was offset by the material sector which gained 1.4% by market close.What to watch today: The Australian market is set to open lower, with the SPI futures suggesting a fall of 0.37% at market open this morning.On the commodities front this morning,Oil is trading 0.74% lower at US$85.58 a barrel, following hot inflation data coming out of the US. Gold is trading 1.57% higher at US$2372 an ounce as investors react to the latest inflation data and the implications it will have on the Fed's monetary policy. And iron ore is trading 0.3% lower at US$104.02 a tonne.Trading Ideas: Bell Potter maintains a buy rating on Telix Pharmaceuticals (ASX:TLX) and has a 12-month price target of $14.50. The buy rating is maintained by Bell Potter as Telix has filed for a new investigational drug application for TLX591. TLX continues to pursue a NASDAQ listing primarily for the purpose of enabling better access to the deep pool of specialist investors focused on biotechnology and radiopharmaceuticals in the US. TLX591 is the first of the companies therapeutic products, hence there is a great deal riding on the opening of the investigational new drug.And Trading Central has identified a bearish signal in NIB Holdings (ASX:NHF), indicating that the stock price may fall from the close of $7.70 to the range of $7.13-$7.23 on a pattern formed over 26 days, according to the standard principles of technical analysis.
This week's market saw the fluctuation of commodity prices, the release of anticipated economic data, and a notable surge in uranium reaching unprecedented highs. The ASX200 declined 2% (Mon – Thurs), with all 11 industry sectors in the red.

Wall Street closed higher on Friday, extending on the November rally among equities in the US with each of the key indices posting a gain for a third straight week. The rally on Friday extended from the prior sessions on the back of softer-than-expected inflation data being released, boosting investor hopes that further rate hikes will be off the table. The Dow Jones added 0.01% on Friday while the S&P500 rose 0.13% and the tech-heavy Nasdaq added 0.08%.Shares in clothing retailer Gap soared 30% on Friday, a day after the company posted better-than-expected results for the third quarter. While on the other end of the market, EV charging network ChargePoint tanked 35% after the company announced a change up to its product suite and cut forecast for third-quarter revenue.Over in Europe, markets closed higher on Friday following the release of eurozone inflation data indicating a sharp slowdown, with October's YoY inflation reading coming in at 2.9% compared to 4.3% in September. The STOXX600 rose 1%, Germany's DAX added 0.84%, the French CAC added 0.91%, and, in the UK, the FTSE100 rose 1.26% boosted by a 0.3% decline in retail sales figures to the lowest level since early 2021.Locally on Friday, the ASX200 fell 0.13% as a sharp decline in the price of oil sparked a sell-off in energy stocks, with the sector ending the day down 1.6%. Industrials and tech stocks offset some of the session's heavy losses with 0.45% and 0.43% gains respectively.Gold miners rallied on Friday on a rise in the price of the precious commodity, with Northern Star Resources, Evolution Mining and Bellevue Gold each rising over 3%.Telix Pharmaceuticals and NextGen Energy were two beneficiaries of the Sohn Hearts & Minds Conference last week after industry experts said the healthcare stock and uranium stock were undervalued and the top stock pick, respectively at the conference.What to watch today:Ahead of the local trading session here in Australia the SPI futures are expecting the local market to open the new trading week 0.4% higher.On the commodities front this morning, oil has rebounded to trade 4.1% higher at US$75.89/barrel, gold is down 0.04% at US$1980.01/ounce and iron ore is down 0.38% at US$132.50/tonne.1 Aussie dollar is buying 65 US cents, 97.40 Japanese Yen, 52 British Pence and 1 New Zealand dollar and 9 cents.Stocks trading ex-dividend today include Silk Laser Australia and Tamawood. If you've been thinking about these stocks, it might be worth considering buying in today as stocks trading ex-dividend generally trade lower on the ex-dividend date.Trading Ideas:Bell Potter has increased the 12-month price target on GrainCorp (ASX:GNC) from $9.45 to $9.55 and maintain a buy rating on the leading Australian grain facilitation company following the release of the company's FY23 results including underlying NPAT slightly above Bell Potter expectations at $268.9m, revenue up 5% to $8.23bn which topped Bell Potter expectations and lease adjusted operating cash inflow of $534.6m, which is above the inflow of $407.1m in FY22.And Trading Central has identified a bullish signal on ClearView Wealth (ASX:CVW) following the formation of a pattern over a period of 278 days which is roughly the same amount of time the share price may rise from the close of $0.58 to the range of $0.69 to $0.71 according to standard principles of technical analysis.
Wall St has closed lower on Thursday as the 10-year treasury yield nears 5%. The Dow Jones lowered 0.75%, the S&P 500 fell 0.85% and the tech-heavy Nasdaq ended Thursday nearly 1 percent lower. Federal Reserve Chair, Jerome Powell described US inflation as “too high” and would likely require lower economic growth. As a result, investors have taken away that it is likely that the Fed would likely maintain interest rates at its next policy meeting. The US 10-year treasury yield reached a peak of 4.996%, closing in on a 5% mark that hasn't been hit since 2007. Over in Europe, markets closed lower for a third consecutive day as investors react to the Hamas-Israel war, earnings and economic data. The STOXX600 ended Thursday down 1.16%, it's lowest close since March 15. Germany's Dax and French CAC closed 0.33% and 0.64% lower respectively, whilst over in the UK, the FTSE 100 ended the day 1.17% in the red. Locally yesterday, the ASX 200 ended the day down 1.36% with all sectors finishing in the red. This was led by the information technology and consumer staples sectors which saw a 1.84% and 1.63% close in the red. What to watch today: The Australian share market is set to open lower, with the SPI futures suggesting a fall of 0.64% at the open this morning. In terms of economic data, The Australian jobless rate was released yesterday, which saw it fall to 3.6%, a sign showing that the labour market remains tight. On the commodities front this morning, Oil is up 2.23% to 90 US dollars and 30 cents a barrel as concerns in the Middle East ramp up supply issues to major distributors. Gold is up 1.37% to 1974 US dollars an ounce as the escalation in the Middle Eastern war increases the demand for the precious metal as a safe-haven asset. And iron ore is down 2.05% to 119 US dollars and 50 cents a tonne, despite Rio Tinto signalling that it will attempt to increase iron ore mining to satisfy the demand growth in China. Trading Ideas: Bell Potter maintains a buy rating on Telix Pharmaceuticals (ASX:TLX) and has maintained its price target of $14 with a current share price of $9.20. The buy rating is maintained as revenues are ahead of the forecast and reported revenues in the third quarter representing an 11% sequential quarter increase. And Trading Central has identified a bullish signal on Evolution Mining (ASX:EVN), indicating that the stock price may rise from the close of $3.60 to the range of $4.10-$4.20 over a pattern formed in 5 days according to the standard principles of technical analysis.
Drs. Lillian Siu and Melvin Chua discuss scientific innovations, disruptive technologies, and novel ways to practice oncology that were featured at the 2023 ASCO Breakthrough meeting in Yokohama, Japan, including CRISPR and gene editing, CAR T-cell and adoptive cell therapies, as well as emerging AI applications that are poised to revolutionize cancer care. TRANSCRIPT Dr. Melvin Chua: Hello, I'm Dr. Melvin Chua, your guest host of the ASCO Daily News Podcast today. I'm a radiation oncologist and I currently practice in the Division of Radiation Oncology at the National Cancer Center in Singapore. I also served as the chair-elect of the ASCO Breakthrough Program Committee, and, on today's episode, we'll be discussing key takeaways from this year's Breakthrough meeting. The global meeting in Yokohama, Japan, brought together world-renowned experts, clinicians, med-tech, pioneers, and novel drug developers to discuss scientific innovations and disruptive technologies that are transforming cancer care today. I'm joined by Dr. Lillian Siu, the chair of the Breakthrough Program Committee. Dr. Siu is a senior medical oncologist at the Princess Margaret Cancer Centre and a professor of medicine at the University of Toronto. You'll find our full disclosures in the transcript of this episode, and disclosures of all guests on the podcast are available at asco.org/DNpod. Lillian, it's great to be speaking with you today. Dr. Lillian Siu: Thanks, Dr. Chua. I'm happy to be here. Dr. Melvin Chua: We were just at ASCO Breakthrough, and it showcased some incredible scientific innovations, and really showed us how technology innovations in precision oncology, biotech, and artificial intelligence are transforming cancer care. What are your thoughts? Dr. Lillian Siu: Yeah, it was a really exciting meeting, Melvin. The theme of this year's Breakthrough meeting was “Shining a Light on Advances in Cancer Care.” And our Opening Session featured an illuminating keynote address by the renowned thought leader and tech trailblazer, Dr. Hiroshi or “Mickey” Mikitani, the founder and CEO of Rakuten and Rakuten Medical. In his address that was titled, “Innovative Technology and Oncology,” he spoke so passionately about innovation and really seeing around the corner to predict what is coming and taking risks. And I think that's what medicine is about, not just what we have in front of us, but to predict and forecast what's coming. I totally was inspired by his address, and I think a lot of the audience felt the same way. He also spoke to us a bit about his company's development in photoimmunotherapy using novel technology and light therapy in head and neck cancer. And I think that's also an area of new technology that we should watch in the next few years. Dr. Melvin Chua: I totally agree with you, Lillian. And one of the quotes that he spoke about really spoke to my heart. He spoke about the 2 choices: whether to do or not to do and not to do is not an option. So, I think that was a very compelling message to a lot of our audience at the meeting. So, on this same note, innovation is a driving force in oncology, and we saw countless examples of this throughout the Breakthrough meeting. Were there any sessions that really stood out for you? Dr. Lillian Siu: There were so many exciting sessions. First of all, there is the “Drugging the Undruggable” session. This is a really important session because in the past we felt that certain cancer targets such as KRAS, MYC, etc., are not druggable. KRAS G12C is the poster child in this area. So, during this session we heard about many ways that we are now looking to target these so-called undruggable molecules in the cancer cell. And we talked about molecular glues, we talked about degraders, and really novel ways that are not yet reaching the clinic, called “cyclic peptides” were discussed by one of the speakers. The other session that is very interesting also is CRISPR and gene editing. Obviously, we all know a little bit about gene editing, really trying to change or knock in some genes that are important perhaps to change the function. And one of the sessions talked about trail targeted induced mesenchymal stem cells, and perhaps this is a way to, again, deliver novel therapies and novel treatments to our patients. There were many examples of how CRISPR and gene editing can be ultimately going to the clinic to benefit our patients in terms of therapeutics. I want to highlight another session, which is the CAR T-cell and Adoptive Cell Therapies. I think everybody knows about CAR T-cells, but in this session we talk about non CAR T-cells or newer things such as off the shelf NK cells, Natural Killer cells from cord blood. So, this way it is allogeneics, in other words, we don't have to rely on only a patient's donation of their samples, but actually get it from off the shelf from other donors. There are other ways to really use human induced pluripotent stem cells that we can armor them by transgenes and also CRISPR out any unwanted genes, for example, to enhance an effective function of T-cells. So many, many exciting ways to bring these cell therapies to the patients. And last but not least, I want to highlight Dr. Chris Abbosh, who is one of our keynote speakers, talking about molecular and minimal residual disease and early cancer detection using circulating tumor DNA or liquid biopsy. He talked passionately about the TRACERx study, which he is instrumental in terms of leading together with Charlie Swanson in the UK. This is a study that really has uncovered a lot of science about cancer heterogeneity. And in that study, he also studied circulating tumor DNA and really shed a lot of light about clonal and subclonal dynamics over time that changes. Dr. Melvin Chua: And just to touch on that point about innovation and how that translates to cancer care, I think it was great that we had those case-based applications in lung cancer, in breast cancer, and the virus-associated cancers. And I like how the speakers were able to bring in the Ying and the Yang, bring the West and the Eastern perspectives in these interactive sessions. I particularly enjoyed all of them. But the session on the lung case discussion where we know that there were this EGFR mutant lung cancers that are prevalent in this part of the world in Asia. I thought the interaction between the speakers was fantastic. On the same note about therapies and we heard about novel therapeutics at this meeting as well. I wonder what your thoughts are about some of the sessions, and do you think some of these technologies were able to be brought into practice? And your thoughts on the novel therapeutic session that happened at Breakthrough, do you think this will actually impact clinical care? Dr. Lillian Siu: Oh, for sure, Melvin. The 5 areas that were covered during the Novel Therapeutics session are really drugs already in the clinic. And for example, the first one was about antibody drug conjugates. We know there are now at least 12 antibody drug conjugates already approved by the FDA and many more likely to be approved in the near future. And the session really talked about what's next, how to improve upon ADC, for example, using better drug antibody ratio, talking about new payloads and really new formats that make perhaps ADCs even more potent in the future. There was a session on oral immunotherapeutics. It was really how to target the innate immunity. And I think novel oral immunotherapeutics is very important because we all know PD-1, PD-L1 inhibitors have been the backbone, but we need another Breakthrough. And having oral immunotherapeutics will make it very attractive for patients because they don't have to come to the cancer center to receive the drugs. Another part of that session was about T-cell engagers and bispecifics, really how to bring molecules to the T-cell, to the effective cells so that they are able to be phytotoxic to the tumor. We talked about also oncolytic viruses, how are the new ways to utilize this kind of natural agent to target the cancer cells. And lastly, we also talked about personalized cancer vaccine, which is obviously very timely. We all know a lot about vaccine now after the COVID pandemic and how do we use cancer vaccines to be a good therapeutic drug? I think especially important in the earlier disease stages as adjuvant therapy. Some exciting data, for example, in pancreatic cancer, as adjuvant really is groundbreaking for this whole topic of cancer vaccination. Dr. Melvin Chua: That's great. And for me as a radiation oncologist who's not so deep in drug development, hearing all the talks at ASCO Breakthrough was really informative for me and I learned a lot. In particular, you spoke about the whole session there was oncolytic therapy and the results in glioblastoma multiforme, we know it's a deadly disease, was certainly very impressive. And so, it speaks to the whole notion that in fact, some of this stuff is in fact reaching the clinic and making a difference in deadly diseases. I think there's a lot to take in from there. Dr. Lillian Siu: Melvin, you're so humble. I know you're a big expert in artificial intelligence and I think the whole session about AI applications in precision medicine really was not just in that session, but a whole theme that went throughout the entire meeting. So, I'm very interested to know what you think about some of the presentations around AI and disruptive technologies in precision medicine, such as next-generation multiomics, etc. What are your thoughts? Dr. Melvin Chua: Absolutely, I agree with you. And there was so much material within the AI session, the multiomic session, as well as the keynote [address] by Dr. Maryellen Giger, which basically speaks about some of the pre-existing or historical work on artificial intelligence in radiology. And I'd like to first talk about the keynote by Dr. Maryellen Giger. It was very nice that she elegantly showed how AI was in fact already in practice in radiology, where it helped to fulfill or address a need for radiologists. Almost 20 years ago, they were able to show that using computer vision, you were able to basically facilitate the calling of abnormal mammograms. And it was inspiring to see how these early thoughts have now basically accelerated a lot of the advances that we see that are in practice today. The other thing that was also was to see this global collaboration, the need for global collaboration in the artificial intelligence space and the radiologists are clearly leading the way. And I think part of the impetus for this effort came from an opportunity that arose during the COVID pandemic that clearly affected all facets of healthcare. That was a nice segue to the very sort of dense 1 hour session we had on precision oncology care with artificial intelligence. I think when we designed this session, we were very deliberate that we wanted to address all aspects of how AI could be applied. From real-world clinical data, we saw examples of how having good, well-annotated data sets could actually help to accelerate and facilitate liver cancer screening in Hong Kong. Then we also saw a very simple, practical application of AI in pathology, where apart from just having this tool to be able to extract features that could potentially predict outcomes of patients and predict drug responses, we saw a very practical example that applying AI in digital pathology could actually homogenize or harmonize the ways the pathologists review their cases. And so, I thought that was very neat and could speak to all our clinicians across both developed and developing countries. We also saw very exciting stuff on the use of AI in terms of calling out mutations because we know that next-generation sequencing is pretty much a cornerstone of how we practice in oncology today. And yet we know that there are prohibitive costs that preclude this technology in certain parts of the world. And it was nice to see how AI could actually lower the cost of some of these sequencing technologies like being used in liquid biopsy. And then finally, there was some fancy science as well that was showcased in the spectrum when we saw how industry as well as academics are thinking about integrating multiomic data sets to then be able to accelerate drug discovery, help define patients better, and so that we can think about how to look at precision oncology using targeted treatments for specific patient phenotypes. So I think this was a very nice transition to the Next-Generation Multiomic Technology session, where, again, some of these topics were touched on, ranging from liquid biopsies, and this was already covered in Dr. Abbosh's talk, which you spoke about, and as well as the preceding day session where we heard snippets of it. And it was again reinforced by the speakers when it showcased liquid biopsies. We have heard so much about it in the last decade and we see it made approved now for use in the clinic, but yet so much remains unknown, like the discrepancies between assays, addressing the cost of assays and, importantly, how we deal with the information. So, I think we are just at the tip of the iceberg here. A lot of the clinical evidence needs to be generated in due course to address some of these questions. At the same time, it was also nice to see some of the new technologies being applied in discovery science. So, we know that immunotherapy is a major player in oncology today, and the Breakthrough represents a forum whereby we're able to bring translational scientists to showcase their work. And we saw examples of that at this meeting where single cell technology, digital spatial technology, being able to apply that in pathology specimens and how the two are integrated to be able to review more novel science to us, to show us how immunotherapy works or doesn't work in some patients. Both of us have touched on so much content that was showcased at the Breakthrough, and I think this speaks to the impact, the learning experience we've had from Breakthrough and I think that's the intended purpose of this meeting. Dr. Lillian Siu: Yeah, I agree. It truly was a very exciting 3 days. And I particularly like the multiomics session where we see that the technology is so advanced just in a really short period of time. Over the last few years, we've been now able to go into single cell resolution where in the past I don't think we would ever dream of being able to do that. In fact, I recall in the single cell session, we can even see messenger RNA on the slide, which I thought was fascinating, something that I cannot imagine we can see by the naked eye. It really is an exciting time in oncology, Melvin, and the field is advancing with these new innovations and therapies, but at the same time, I think it's important that we do live globally and we need to work really also to help improve access to quality-assured cancer medicines and diagnostics in the low and middle income countries. What do you think about that part? Did we do a good job in addressing that in the meeting? Dr. Melvin Chua: Absolutely, Lillian. We had a special session that was chaired by Dr. Peter Yu and the lecture was delivered by Dr. Gilberto Lopes from the University of Miami. And we know that he's a strong advocate for this. And the session title spoke to this topic very pointedly, “How Science, Technology, and Practice Can Be Enabled in Lower- and Middle-Resource Settings.” And I thought that the work that he highlighted, the whole ATOM coalition, was important. ATOM basically stands for Access to Oncology Medicines, and it was established last year by the UICC, the Union for International Cancer Control, along with global partners to improve access to anti-cancer drugs and to develop processes for ensuring quality delivery, as well as the optimal utilization of medicines in middle- and low-resource settings. And I think there's a lot more work to be done. Some of the information they showed was very compelling to me from this part of the world. But we know that Asia isn't very heterogeneous in terms of the resources, in terms of the culture. And I thought that the drug pricing, for example, how that should be addressed across the different countries is an important topic to pick up. And I hope his lecture only invigorates this conversation going forward. Dr. Lillian Siu: Yeah. Thanks, Melvin. I totally agree. That was very inspiring. Breakthrough is such a one of a kind, international gathering that we are not only able to network while we're there; we also have a session to really allow attendees to leverage international cancer networks, to learn a bit about them, all the way from, for example, some of the North American groups to Asia Pacific groups to even global groups, and how we interact between pharma and academia, really transcending boundaries. And I think it is really, really important for us to now have these networks address issues such as equity and cancer care innovation, novel approaches and so much more. And I think, I am sure you're going to do a good job in making sure that gets into the agenda in our next year's meeting in 2024. Ultimately, we hope that these collaborations in cancer research will help to improve the outcomes for our patients with cancer. Dr. Melvin Chua: Thank you again for sharing the great highlights of ASCO Breakthrough, and I'm really appreciative of your work, and your commitment to build a really robust program for this year. So, thank you. Dr. Lillian Siu: And thank you, Dr. Chua. And you can bet that I will not miss Breakthrough 2024 in Yokohama in August next year. I will be there. Dr. Melvin Chua: Okay, I'll hold you to that. And thank you to our listeners for your time today. You'll find links to all of the sessions discussed today in the transcript of this episode.

It was a positive run in New York overnight, with all three major benchmarks closing in the green, as the corporate earnings season continued. The Dow Jones registered its eighth straight day of gains, its longest winning streak since September 2019. Goldman Sachs reported in the US, announcing a miss on profit and a beat on revenue, while Netflix, Tesla, IBM, and United Airlines reported after the close. Netflix shares tumbled after reporting quarterly results, saying it was too early to assess the effects of its crackdown on its password sharing and revenue from the ad-supported offering. Tesla shares fluctuated near the flatline after reporting record-high quarterly revenue, while United Airlines jumped after revenue topped analysts' expectations. What to watch today:Our local market is set to open higher, with the SPI futures suggesting a slight rise of 0.03%. Ahead of reporting season, that kicks off every soon, some companies are releasing their quarterly results, before their full year results are announced in August. Keep watch of the following quarterly reports out today, including BHP Group (ASX:BHP), Alumina (ASX:AWC), Evolution Mining (ASX:EVN) and Santos (ASX:STO). Also today, companies announcing their full year results are Zip Co (ASX:ZIP) and Telix Pharmaceuticals (ASX:TLX). And Bell Potter have updated their report on TLX – so more on that a little later. In economic news, the unemployment rate for June will be announced today at 11:30am AEST, expected to remain unchanged a 3.6%. And looking at commodities now, Crude oil is trading at around US$75 per barrel, as investors weigh demand concerns, China's announcement to support economic growth, as well as signs of tightening global oil supplies. Gold is lower, hovering near its strongest levels in two months, amid weakness in the US dollar. While iron ore is up 0.9%, trading at US$116.50 per barrel, hovering close to the three-month high. Iron ore markets continue to weigh on Chinese resource demand as the likelihood of government stimulus for the construction industry. Trading Ideas:Bell Potter maintains a Buy rating on Telix Pharmaceuticals (ASX:TLX). The group specialises in the development and commercialisation of radiopharmaceuticals for imaging and treatment of certain cancers. They reported Q2 cash flows with revenue growth of 20.6% compared to the previous quarter, in line with Bell Potter's expectations. FY23 EBITDA is lowered by approximately $14 million (down 13%), as Bell Potter reduce their gross margin assumption to 64%. The price target remains unchanged at $14.00, and at TLX's current share price of $12.16, this implies 15.1% share price growth in a year. And Trading Central have identified a bullish signal in oOh Media (ASX:OML), indicating that the stock price may rise from the close of $1.33 to the range of $1.45 to $1.49 over 38 days, according to the standard principles of technical analysis.
Wall Street closed mixed on Friday as earnings season kicked off in the US with a few big names posting better-than-expected results. This reporting period is particularly important in the eye of investors as to see how well US companies have performed during the high inflation, high interest rate environment. The Dow Jones rose 0.33%, while the S&P500 fell 0.1% and the tech-heavy Nasdaq lost 0.18% on Friday. For the week though, the three key indices posted gains with the Dow Jones adding 2.3%, the S&P rising 2.4% and the Nasdaq adding 3.3%.UnitedHealth shares jumped more than 7% on Friday after the insurance company reported better-than-expected adjusted earnings and revenue for the first half.

The Dow Jones industrials index lost 0.23%, the S&P500 fell 0.01% and the tech-heavy Nasdaq gained 0.03%.Netflix and Morgan Stanley headlined the results released on Wednesday.

This earnings season investors are looking out for slowing earnings growth and signs of weakening demand likely to hit corporate profits in the second half of FY23 as the Fed continues its rate hike path toward the end of the tightening cycle.Over in Europe, markets closed mixed as investors digested the latest CPI data out of the UK. UK CPI or inflation data came in at 10.1% for March, down from 10.4% in February but well above economists' expectations of a fall to 9.8%, in a sign inflation remains stubbornly high in the UK. Data out on Tuesday though showed wages growth in the UK slowed by less than expected in the three months to March which may encourage the Bank of England to continue raising rates at the next monetary policy meeting. Germany's DAX rose 0.08%, the French CAC added 0.21% and, in the UK, the FTSE100 fell 0.13%.On the local bourse yesterday, it was a muted day on the ASX, with the key index closing 0.07% higher as strong gains for materials stocks were offset by sharp losses in the consumer discretionary sector. Gold stocks did most of the heavy lifting yesterday amid a rise in the price of the precious commodity, while Telix Pharmaceuticals (ASX:TLX) was the top performing stock for a second straight session after releasing record-setting results to start the week.What to watch today:Ahead of the local trading session the SPI futures are anticipating the ASX to open 0.09% lower following lacklustre sessions on global markets overnight.On the commodities front this morning oil is trading 2.26% lower at US$79.03/barrel, gold is down 0.51% at US$1994.70/ounce and iron ore is up 2.54% at US$121/tonne.AU$1.00 is buying US$0.67, 90.43 Japanese Yen, 53.93 British Pence and NZ$1.08.Trading Ideas:Bell Potter has increased its price target on RMA Global (ASX:RMY) from 20 cps to 21 cps and maintain a speculative buy rating on the company amid the digital real estate marketing company's success in penetrating the large US market including US claimed profiles growing to 250,000 up 6.4% quarter-on-quarter, while US reviews increased 97% year-on-year.Bell Potter has downgraded its price target on Frontier Digital Ventures (ASX:FDV) from $1.23 to $1.05 but maintain a speculative buy rating on the company following the company completing a capital raise and the headwinds faced through difficult trading conditions in Pakistan.
The US markets extended the green run this week into Tuesday as investors anticipate the midterm election results, expecting Republicans to take back the House of Representatives and possibly win the Senate as well, which could impact government spending and regulation. The Dow Jones industrials index added 1.36%, the S&P500 gained 0.97%, and the tech-heavy Nasdaq rallied 0.85%.Over in Europe, markets closed higher as global investors looked to the US where the midterm elections are dominating headlines. The STOXX600 rallied to close Tuesday's session 0.78% higher, while Germany's DAX added 1.15% and the French CAC closed the session up 0.39%. In the UK, the FTSE100 added just 0.08% at the closing bell on Tuesday which was a recovery from a sell-off early in the session. The morning sell-off was sparked by British Retail Consortium figures showing UK retail sales growth slowed in October to 1.2% YoY compared to 1.8% in September which dampened investor sentiment.What to watch today:In commodities, it's been a mixed week across the board with commodities moving with investor sentiment around China's COVID zero goal updates.

High inflation is bad for markets and stock markets are forward looking. Inflation expectations have already been priced into current share prices so the risk for investors is that the inflation number comes in higher than expected and, if it does, then that is likely to put further pressure on share prices. With so much commentary on inflation right now, it's important for listeners to look at what has already been priced in and new information that has not because that is where we will see movement.Trading Ideas:Trading Central has identified a bullish signal on Telix Pharmaceuticals (ASX:TLX) following the formation of a pattern over a period of 7-days which is roughly the same amount of time the share price may rise from the close of $6.96 to the range of $8.10 to $8.40 according to standard principles of technical analysis.Trading Central has identified a bearish signal on Infomedia Limited (ASX:IFM) following the formation of a pattern over a period of 24-days which is roughly the same amount of time the share price may fall from the close of $1.23 to the range of $1.02 to $1.06 according to standard principles of technical analysis.
The local market recovered from the recent inflation-related sell-off today, sharply rising 1.29% to close the session in positive territory, driven by a surge in energy, materials and utilities stocks today amid the rising price of commodities. Crude was up 0.34% today and natural gas rose 1.6%. The story of the day was IDP Education (ASX:IEL) entering a binding agreement to acquire 100% of student placement agency Intake Education for up to $83m.

The best performing stock was NIB Holdings (ASX:NIB), after the private health insurer released its full year results, which showed a 7.2% increase in revenue, but a decline in its net profit, however the decline was slightly ahead of estimates. Other top performers included EML Payments (ASX:EML), Pilbara Minerals (ASX:PLS) and Telix Pharmaceuticals (ASX:TLX). Meanwhile, Adbri (ASX:ABC) tumbled 17% after wet weather disruptions and rising fuel and energy prices impacted its profits.

Our local market yesterday closed 0.2% lower. The tech sector declined the most among the 11 sectors, while utilities also weighed down on the market.
