NICHE-2: nivolumab and ipilimumab in non-metastatic MSI-high colon cancer
John Strickler, MD, Duke Cancer Institute, Durham, NC, gives an overview of the NICHE-2 trial (NCT03026140), which assessed immunotherapy for non-metastatic MSI-high colon cancer. Traditionally treated with resection and adjuvant chemotherapy, patients in the trial received nivolumab and ipilimumab. A promising 3-year disease-free survival rate was reported and the regimen was well-tolerated. The findings highlight the potential of the combination to become an emerging standard of care for this group of patients.
