  • Updated survival and safety results after 5 years from the phase III Checkmate 227 study of nivolumab and ipilimumab vs chemotherapy in previously untreated advanced NSCLC, including assessment of a treatment-free interval
  • Updated analysis from the phase III ATEZO-BRAIN trial of atezolizumab + carboplatin and pemetrexed in patients with advanced NSCLC with untreated brain metastases
  • Updated overall response analysis from the phase II KEYNOTE-799 study of pembrolizumab with concurrent chemoradiation in unresectable, locally advanced stage III NSCLC
  • Results from a phase II trial evaluating nivolumab plus ipilimumab vs nivolumab monotherapy following chemoradiation in unresectable stage III NSCLC
