A new approach to chimeric antigen receptor T-cell therapy has shown great promise against small cell lung cancer in a preclinical study. The findings cover new ground in our understanding of how CAR T can be employed against solid-tumor cancers, and provide support for further studies in cancer patients.
Tagrisso (osimertinib) plus chemotherapy delivers a statistically significant and clinically meaningful survival benefit compared to Tagrisso monotherapy in the first-line treatment of patients with locally advanced or metastatic epidermal growth factor receptor-mutated non-small cell lung cancer, according to results from the final overall survival analysis of the FLAURA2 phase III trial.
