The KEYNOTE-177 phase 3 trial aimed to evaluate the cost-effectiveness of pembrolizumab from the payer’s perspective. Despite treatment variations, the results revealed pembrolizumab’s cost-effectiveness over chemotherapy at a 15 million/QALY threshold. Pembrolizumab significantly prolonged progression-free survival compared to chemotherapy for patients with advanced colorectal cancer with MSI-High or dMMR. Taniguchi S and the […]...

First-line treatment with camrelizumab plus famitinib in advanced or metastatic NSCLC patients with PD-L1 TPS >=1%: results from a multicenter, open-label, phase 2 trial

First-line treatment with camrelizumab plus famitinib in advanced or metastatic NSCLC patients with PD-L1 TPS >=1%: results from a multicenter, open-label, phase 2 trial

Background The combination of immune-checkpoint inhibitors and antiangiogenic agents can synergistically modulate the tumor microenvironment and represents a promising treatment option. Here, we evaluated the efficacy and safety of camrelizumab plus famitinib (a receptor tyrosine kinase …

Lower frequencies of circulating suppressive regulatory T cells and higher frequencies of CD4+ naïve T cells at baseline are associated with severe immune-related adverse events in immune checkpoint inhibitor-treated melanoma

Lower frequencies of circulating suppressive regulatory T cells and higher frequencies of CD4+ naïve T cells at baseline are associated with severe immune-related adverse events in immune checkpoint inhibitor-treated melanoma

Background Immune-related adverse events (irAEs) are major barriers of clinical management and further development of immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) for cancer therapy. Therefore, biomarkers associated with the onset of severe irAEs are needed. In this study, …

1397 CDR404, an antibody-based bispecific & bivalent T-cell engager targeted against MAGE-A4, for Squamous Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (SQ-NSCLC)

1397 CDR404, an antibody-based bispecific & bivalent T-cell engager targeted against MAGE-A4, for Squamous Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (SQ-NSCLC)

Background Squamous non-small cell lung cancer (SQ-NSCLC) is the 2nd most common type of lung cancer. Given the paucity of actionable oncogene drivers, and lack of efficacy from multiple therapies in the Lung-MAP trial, there is …
