GSK's dostarlimab (Jemperli) met primary endpoints in a Phase 2 trial for dMMR rectal cancer, showing sustained complete responses at 12 months and enabling patients to avoid surgery, chemotherapy, and radiation. The company plans FDA filing with expedited review under the National Priority Review Voucher programme.
