Second-Line Liposomal Irinotecan Fails to Improve OS, PFS Over Topotecan in SCLC

April 6th 2023

Single-agent liposomal irinotecan resulted in a similar median overall survival and progression-free survival to that achieved with topotecan in patients with small cell lung cancer that had progressed on or following frontline platinum-based chemotherapy.

Cemiplimab With or Without Chemotherapy Provides Long-Term Clinical Benefit in Locally Advanced NSCLC

April 5th 2023

Adagrasib Induces 68% ORR in Subset of Patients With KRAS G12C–Mutated NSCLC

April 4th 2023

Adagrasib induced high overall response rates in patients with KRAS G12C–mutated non–small cell lung cancer who achieved at least 90% mutation allele frequency clearance.

Atezolizumab Following Neoadjuvant Atezolizumab and Resection Improves DFS in NSCLC

April 4th 2023

Data for adjuvant atezolizumab following neoadjuvant atezolizumab and resection demonstrated an improvement in disease-free survival and a trend toward improved overall survival in patients with resectable stage IB to IIIB non–small cell lung cancer compared with those who did not receive adjuvant atezolizumab.

Eftilagimod Alpha/Pembrolizumab Generates Antitumor Activity in PD-1–Resistant NSCLC

April 3rd 2023

Treatment with eftilagimod alpha plus pembrolizumab resulted in tumor shrinkage and a tolerable safety profile in patients with anti–PD-1/PD-L1–resistant non–small cell lung cancer.

Atezolizumab/Cabozantinib Fails to Elicit Benefit Over SOC in Second-line Metastatic NSCLC

April 2nd 2023

Second-line atezolizumab plus cabozantinib did not generate a clinical benefit over standard-of-care docetaxel in patients with metastatic non–small cell lung cancer previously treated with immune checkpoint inhibitors and chemotherapy.

Tusamitamab Ravtansine Plus Pembrolizumab With or Without Chemo Elicits Responses in CEACAM5+ NSCLC

April 1st 2023

The combination of tusamitamab ravtansine and pembrolizumab with or without chemotherapy generated responses and was well tolerated when used as first-line treatment for patients with CEACAM5-positive nonsquamous non–small cell lung cancer.

Cemiplimab Monotherapy Induces Durable OS, PFS Benefits in PD-L1+ NSCLC With Brain Metastases

March 31st 2023

Four Cycles of Chemotherapy Plus Tremelimumab and Durvalumab Demonstrate Optimized Outcomes in Metastatic NSCLC

March 31st 2023

The use of 4 cycles of chemotherapy plus durvalumab with or without tremelimumab-actl was associated with improved or sustained response and similar toxicity compared with chemotherapy alone as frontline therapy in patients with metastatic non–small cell lung cancer, according to post hoc exploratory findings from the phase 3 POSEIDON trial.

Updated EMPOWER-Lung 3 Data Support Frontline Cemiplimab Plus Chemo in Advanced NSCLC

March 30th 2023

The addition of cemiplimab to platinum-doublet chemotherapy continued to provide a clinically meaningful and statistically significant improvement in clinical benefit over chemotherapy alone in patients with advanced non–small cell lung cancer, irrespective of histology or PD-L1 expression level.

Neoadjuvant Nivolumab Plus Chemotherapy Retains EFS Advantage in Resectable NSCLC

March 30th 2023

Neoadjuvant nivolumab plus chemotherapy produced a long-term event-free survival benefit vs chemotherapy alone in patients with resectable non–small cell lung cancer, independent of whether patients underwent minimally invasive surgery or thoracotomy or complete or partial resection of the lung.
