Anwaar Saeed UPMC Hillman Cancer Center Incredible milestone for MSS CRC! 🙌 Congratulations to Anwaar Saeed, Dr. Hecht, and the entire STELLAR-303 team on this historic achievement. A huge leap forward for IO in GI oncology. Truly inspiring work! 👏🎯 #CRC #Immunotherapy #STELLAR303 #OncologyInnovation

📢 Press release drop—interpret with appropriate caution. Exelixis reports that zanzalintinib + atezolizumab improved overall survival vs regorafenib in the Phase 3 STELLAR-303 trial for third-line MSS metastatic colorectal cancer. This isn’t the highest bar—survival in this
