The treatment combination of Rybrevant plus chemotherapy offers better progression-free survival for patients with advanced EGFR exon 20 insertion-positive NSCLC.

Osimertinib plus chemotherapy reduced the risk of central nervous system disease progression or death vs osimertinib alone in patients with locally advanced or metastatic EGFR-positive non–small cell lung cancer who had brain metastases at baseline, according to data from the phase 3 FLAURA2 trial.

The results of CheckMate 77T showcase the improved event-free survival for patients with resectable non–small cell lung cancer who receive nivolumab in both the neoadjuvant and adjuvant setting and may have practice-changing implications.

Interim findings from the ALINA trial show improved DFS with alectinib in the adjuvant setting vs chemotherapy in resected stage IB-IIIA NSCLC. But will early DFS results extend to overall survival?

Regardless of presence of brain metastases, patients with HER2-mutant (HER2m) non–small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) showed systemic responses to trastuzumab deruxtecan. In addition, the therapy showed intracranial efficacy to reduce the size of brain metastases.

Second-line treatment with sacituzumab govitecan-hziy led to responses in patients with extensive-stage small cell lung cancer, according to results from the phase 2 TROPiCS-03 trial.

Nicolas Girard, MD, PhD, discusses primary efficacy results from the phase 3 PAPILLON trial of amivantamab plus chemotherapy in EGFR exon 20 insertion–mutated advanced non–small cell lung cancer.

Neoadjuvant treatment with nivolumab plus chemotherapy followed by surgery and adjuvant nivolumab resulted in a statistically significant improvement in event-free survival vs placebo plus chemotherapy, in patients with previously untreated resectable stage II to IIIB non-small cell lung cancer, according to data from the phase 3 CheckMate 77T trial.

Interim findings from CheckMate 77T show an overall improvement in event-free survival with perioperative nivolumab vs neoadjuvant nivolumab plus chemotherapy only.

The phase 2 KRYSTAL-7 trial evaluated adagrasib plus pembrolizumab in patients with KRAS-mutated non–small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) with high PD-L1 expression. The results demonstrated “encouraging preliminary activity.”
