SpaceX launched a stack of Starlink internet satellites to orbit from California and returned the booster to Earth Friday afternoon (March 26).
The Falcon 9 rocket flying the mission, Starlink 11-7, carried a total of 27 satellites to orbit from Vandenberg Space Force Base, in California. The SpaceX rocket lifted off from Space Launch Complex-4E at 6:11:40 p.m. ET (2211 GMT).
A little more than eight minutes later, the rocket's first-stage booster, B1063, touched down on the SpaceX droneship "Of Course I Still Love You," stationed in the Pacific Ocean. It was the 24th launch and landing for B1063, which has previously flown 15 Starlink missions, including its most recent, a Starlink mission in January.
Booster 1063 launches:
Sentinel-6 Michael Freilich | DART | Transporter-7 | Iridium OneWeb | Tranche 0 | NROL-113 | NROL-167 | NROL-149 | 15 Starlink missions
The Falcon 9 upper stage continued to space to deploy the Starlink satellites in low Earth orbit (LEO) about 60 minutes after liftoff, as planned. SpaceX announced the successful deployment on X.
Those satellites join a megaconstellation of over 7,100 Starlink satellites in LEO, according to satellite tracker and astrophysicist Jonathan McDowell. Together, the globe-wide orbital mesh offers low-latency, high-speed internet to Starlink customers around the planet.

Divorcing SpaceX Just Isn't Possible Right Now
The public spat between President Donald Trump and Elon Musk, the world's richest person, was unsettling given the power these two men wield and how their verbal tussle quickly escalated to issues that directly affect national security. Trump floated the cancellation of all NASA and Department of Defense contracts with SpaceX, the space-launch and satellite-internet company Musk founded in 2002. Musk countered that he would withdraw the services of the Dragon space capsule, which is the only option now, except for resorting to the Russians, for ferrying astronauts to the International Space Station.

ADC Therapeutics Announces Updated Data from LOTIS-7 Clinical Trial Presented at the European Hematology Association 2025 Congress
ZYNLONTA® in combination with glofitamab (COLUMVI®) in patients with r/r DLBCL demonstrated clinically meaningful benefit with overall response rate (ORR) of 93.3% and a complete response (CR) rate of 86.7% across 30 efficacy evaluable patients 25 of 26 patients achieving CR remained in CR as of the data cut-off Initial data show the combination is generally well tolerated with a manageable safety profile Company expanding enrollment for LOTIS-7 to 100 patients at 150 µg/kg dose Company to host conference call today at 8:00 a.m. ET/2:00 p.m. CEST LAUSANNE, Switzerland, June 12, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- ADC Therapeutics SA (NYSE: ADCT), a commercial-stage global leader and pioneer in the field of antibody drug conjugates (ADCs), today announced updated data from the LOTIS-7 Phase 1b open-label clinical trial evaluating the safety and efficacy of ZYNLONTA® in combination with the bispecific antibody glofitamab (COLUMVI®) in patients with relapsed or refractory diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (r/r DLBCL) to be presented at the European Hematology Association 2025 Congress (EHA2025) in Milan, Italy. The Company will host a conference call and webcast featuring LOTIS-7 trial principal investigator and EHA presenting author, Juan Alderuccio, MD, Clinical Site Disease Group Leader, Lymphoma Section, at Sylvester Comprehensive Cancer Center, part of the University of Miami Miller School of Medicine today at 8:00 a.m. ET to discuss the results. To access the conference call, please register here. "The data seen in this study with the combination of ZYNLONTA and glofitamab has shown a manageable safety profile along with strong efficacy data from patients with relapsed or refractory DLBCL, with complete responses observed regardless of prior therapy, including CAR-T," said Mohamed Zaki, MD, PhD, Chief Medical Officer of ADC Therapeutics. "The combination of these two anti-cancer agents holds significant promise for advancing the treatment landscape and addressing unmet need in patients with these hard-to-treat lymphomas." The presentation highlights updated data as of April 14, 2025, in which r/r LBCL patients received dose levels of 120 µg/kg or 150 µg/kg of ZYNLONTA plus the bispecific antibody glofitamab, with 41 patients evaluable for safety and 30 patients evaluable for efficacy. Key highlights of the LOTIS-7 data presentation are as follows: Best overall response data among the 30 efficacy evaluable patients shows overall response rate (ORR) of 93.3% (28/30 pts) as assessed by Lugano Criteria Complete response (CR) rate of 86.7% (26/30 pts) Of these, 25/26 patients achieving CR remain in CR as of the data cut-off Median time to CR in 120 µg/kg = 80 days Median time to CR in 150 µg/kg = 42 days 12 patients converted from stable disease (SD) or partial response (PR) to CR over time (1 and 11 pts respectively) Of the 6 patients previously treated with CAR-T and undergoing response assessment, 5 achieved a CR Among the 41 safety evaluable patients, the combination was generally well tolerated with a manageable safety profile and no DLTs across dose levels Grade 3 or higher treatment emergent adverse events (TEAEs) observed in > 5% of patients included neutropenia (24.4%), anemia (9.8%), AST increased (7.3%), GGT increased (7.3%), and thrombocytopenia (7.3%) In the 150 µg/kg dose, cytokine release syndrome (CRS) (23.8%), all of which were Grade 1, and immune effector cell-associated neurotoxicity syndrome (ICANS) (4.8%), with one case of Grade 2, were observed In the 120 µg/kg dose, CRS all grades (55%), all of which were Grade 1/2 except one case of Grade 3, and ICANS (10%), with one case of Grade 1 and one case of Grade 2, were observed TEAEs leading to discontinuation included 3 each for ZYNLONTA and glofitamab There were no Grade 5 TEAEs observed "We believe these new data are differentiating and further reinforce the potential of ZYNLONTA plus the bispecific glofitamab to improve outcomes for DLBCL patients who need it most," said Ameet Mallik, Chief Executive Officer of ADC Therapeutics. "This early safety and efficacy data support the ongoing expansion of this study to 100 patients at the 150 µg/kg dose of ZYNLONTA plus glofitamab. We look forward to discussing the results with Dr. Alderuccio during our conference call today in addition to the presentation of the data set across two key conferences." This data will be shared at EHA2025 during a poster presentation on June 14 at 6:30 p.m. CEST and also as an oral encore presentation at the 18th International Conference on Malignant Lymphoma (ICML) in Lugano, Switzerland on Friday, June 20 at 9:00 a.m. ET.

About LOTIS-7LOTIS-7 is a Phase 1b global multicenter, multi-arm study in patients with relapsed or refractory B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma (B-NHL) including Part 1 (dose escalation) and Part 2 (dose expansion). The three dosing arms include ZYNLONTA plus polatuzumab vedotin, ZYNLONTA plus glofitamab, and ZYNLONTA plus mosunetuzumab T-cell-engaging bispecific monoclonal antibodies (BsAbs). Enrollment in LOTIS-7 includes Part 1 of the study with a 3+3 dose escalation in 3L/3L+ heavily pre-treated patients with ZYNLONTA doses starting at 90 µg/kg and then proceeding to 120 µg/kg and 150 µg/kg. Part 2 includes dose expansion in 2L/2L+ large B-cell lymphoma in the ZYNLONTA plus glofitamab arm at dose levels determined from Part 1 (120 µg/kg and 150 µg/kg of ZYNLONTA plus the approved dosing of glofitamab). Primary endpoints of the study include safety and tolerability. Secondary efficacy endpoints include ORR, DOR, CRR, PFS, RFS, and OS as well as pharmacokinetics and immunogenicity. For more information about the LOTIS-7 trial, visit (NCT04970901). About ZYNLONTA® ZYNLONTA® is a CD19-directed antibody drug conjugate (ADC). Once bound to a CD19-expressing cell, ZYNLONTA is internalized by the cell, where enzymes release a pyrrolobenzodiazepine (PBD) payload. The potent payload binds to DNA minor groove with little distortion, remaining less visible to DNA repair mechanisms. This ultimately results in cell cycle arrest and tumor cell death. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and the European Medicines Agency (EMA) have approved ZYNLONTA (loncastuximab tesirine-lpyl) for the treatment of adult patients with relapsed or refractory (r/r) large B-cell lymphoma after two or more lines of systemic therapy, including diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) not otherwise specified (NOS), DLBCL arising from low-grade lymphoma and also high-grade B-cell lymphoma. The trial included a broad spectrum of heavily pre-treated patients (median three prior lines of therapy) with difficult-to-treat disease, including patients who did not respond to first-line therapy, patients refractory to all prior lines of therapy, patients with double/triple hit genetics and patients who had stem cell transplant and CAR-T therapy prior to their treatment with ZYNLONTA. This indication is approved by the FDA under accelerated approval and in the European Union under conditional approval based on overall response rate and continued approval for this indication may be contingent upon verification and description of clinical benefit in a confirmatory trial. Please see full prescribing information including important safety information about ZYNLONTA at ZYNLONTA is also being evaluated as a therapeutic option in combination studies in other B-cell malignancies and earlier lines of therapy. About ADC Therapeutics ADC Therapeutics (NYSE: ADCT) is a commercial-stage biotechnology company helping to improve the lives of those affected by cancer with its next-generation, targeted antibody drug conjugates (ADCs).
