    On October 16, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved pembrolizumab (Keytruda) with platinum-containing chemotherapy as neoadjuvant treatment, and with continuation of single-agent pembrolizumab as postsurgical adjuvant treatment, for resectable (tumors ≥ 4 cm or node-positive) non–small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Efficacy was evaluated in KEYNOTE-671 (ClinicalTrials.gov identifier NCT03425643), a multicenter, randomized, double-blind, pla cebo-controlled trial in 797 patients with previously

    Patients dealing with cancers that have resisted immuno-oncology (IO) therapies potentially have a new treatment option on the horizon. More than a decade after the first checkpoint inhibitor raised hopes, next-generation investigational IO is lighting up clinics with long-sought encouraging results against the persistent “cold” tumors involved in colorectal, lung,

    PURPOSE Tissue factor is highly expressed in cervical carcinoma and can be targeted by tisotumab vedotin (TV), an antibody-drug conjugate. This phase Ib/II study evaluated TV in combination with bevacizumab, pembrolizumab, or carboplatin for recurrent or metastatic cervical cancer (r/mCC). METHODS This open-label, multicenter study (ClinicalTrials.gov identifier: NCT03786081) included dose-escalation arms that assessed dose-limiting toxicities (DLTs) and identified the recommended phase II dose (RP2D) of TV in combination with bevacizumab (arm A), pembrolizumab (arm B), or carboplatin (arm C). The dose-expansion arms evaluated TV antitumor activity and safety at RP2D in combination with carboplatin as first-line (1L) treatment (arm D) or with pembrolizumab as 1L (arm E) or second-/third-line (2L/3L) treatment (arm F). The primary end point of dose expansion was objective response rate (ORR). RESULTS A total of 142 patients were enrolled. In dose escalation (n = 41), no DLTs were observ
