Dr. Eduardo Santos, MD, FACP, FCCP, provides and overview of immunotherapy-based treatment strategies for NSCLC in the neoadjuvant and perioperative setting.
Adding intercalated gefitinib to adjuvant chemotherapy improved DFS vs chemotherapy alone in completely resected stage II-IIIB EGFR-mutant NSCLC in a phase 3 trial.
A real-world study found just one-third of patients remained on adjuvant osimertinib at 3 years, with early discontinuation linked to worse disease-free survival.
Primary results from the phase 3 ARTEMIS-008 trial presented at WCLC 2026 showed risvutatug rezetecan reduced the risk of death by 54% and more than doubled PFS.
Randomized dose-expansion data from the global phase 1 study establish the recommended phase 3 dose for the EGFR x HER3 bispecific ADC in the IZABRIGHT-Lung01 trial.
Final analysis of the phase 3 IMpower030 trial showed a median EFS of 62.8 months versus 34.9 months with placebo plus chemotherapy in stage IIB to IIIB disease.
