In US, the trend was more frequently seen at very low-volume and nonacademic centers than at high-volume and academic centers

A study identifies some altered inflammatory genes and pathways in non-small cell lung cancer that may be potential targets for overcoming acquired immune resistance

Acquired genomic changes, decreased TILs and HLA class I expression were identified in patients with non-small cell lung cancer progressing on immune checkpoint inhibitors

Certain immunotherapy combinations that are effective in selected solid tumours may not be effective in lung cancer without targetable genetic alterations.

A study reports evidence of antitumour activity by combining a GDF-15 neutralising antibody with PD-1 inhibition in cancers that are refractory/relapsed to immune checkpoint inhibitors 

Analysis from MARIPOSA-2 and FLAURA2 trials show a potential change of treatment paradigm in both first- and second-line settings

In the IND227 trial, more pronounced benefits of the immunotherapy were observed in patients with non-epithelioid histology and regardless of PD-L1 status 

The TROP2-directed ADC improved PFS with reduced toxicity compared with chemotherapy in the TROPION-Lung01 trial, but results are not practice-changing  

Clinically meaningful improvements over standard care were observed in both first and second line, as reported in the MARIPOSA and MARIPOSA-2 phase III trials 

Alectinib is the first ALK inhibitor to significantly improve DFS in a phase III trial across disease stages
