The Reading Room
KEYNOTE-867 tested pembrolizumab with SBRT in unresected stage I or II NSCLC
VTE reporting in fusion-positive NSCLC trials is fragmented across publications and registries
Tarlatamab gave an mOS of 13.6 months against 8.4 with chemotherapy in SCLC at extended DeLLphi-304 follow-up
Neoadjuvant durvalumab plus chemotherapy led to resection in 74.6% of patients in the MDT-BRIDGE trial
Early ctDNA clearance was associated with longer event-free survival in resectable NSCLC in NeoCOAST-2
Adding chemotherapy to pembrolizumab lengthened PFS in PD-L1-high advanced NSCLC in PERSEE
Tarlatamab added to durvalumab maintenance extended OS in extensive-stage SCLC
Divarasib extended OS over sotorasib or adagrasib in previously treated KRAS G12C-mutated NSCLC
KEYVIBE-008 tested vibostolimab coformulated with pembrolizumab plus chemotherapy in first-line ES-SCLC
TP53 Y220C occurs in 0.7% of NSCLC and more often in EGFR-mutant tumours, in an ETOP study of 28,244 patients
The “tail of the curve” is real: long-term survival in PD-L1–negative metastatic NSCLC
ctDNA on immunotherapy is prognostic across NSCLC stages, but ctDNA-guided treatment remains investigational
Nivolumab plus ipilimumab in 545 Japanese patients with metastatic NSCLC: the LIGHT-NING 2.5-year update
First-line firmonertinib produced responses in 68% of patients with EGFR PACC-mutant NSCLC at 240 mg
Community indicators flagged high lung cancer incidence areas in California better than smoking alone
Platinum-pemetrexed after selective RET inhibitor failure gave a median real-world PFS of 6.1 months
Fixation protocol determined immunocytochemistry performance on lung cancer cytology slides in an IASLC study
A papal diagnosis turns the world’s attention to its most diagnosed cancer
Durable responders to immunotherapy for NSCLC or melanoma mostly reported good health, but frequent fatigue
More lymph nodes examined at segmentectomy tracked with longer survival in early-stage NSCLC
