Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer

Patients with non–small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) who tested positive for driver gene alteration had longer overall survival when given targeted therapy.

The addition of serplulimab to carboplatin and nab-paclitaxel significantly prolonged survival vs chemotherapy alone when used in the first-line treatment of patients with previously untreated locally advanced or metastatic squamous non–small cell lung cancer.

For patients with advanced non–small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), regardless of PD-L1 status, cemiplimab plus chemotherapy had favorable survival benefits and patient-reported outcomes over chemotherapy alone.

Repotrectinib achieved a high objective response rate and durable response in the pivotal TRIDENT-1 trial.

Pembrolizumab plus chemotherapy prior to surgery, followed by resection and single-agent pembrolizumab in the adjuvant setting, significantly improved overall survival (OS) vs neoadjuvant placebo plus chemotherapy followed by adjuvant placebo in patients with resectable stage II, IIIA, or IIIB (T3-4N2) non–small cell lung cancer, meeting the dual primary end point of the phase 3 KEYNOTE-671 trial.
