In the phase III CheckMate-77T trial evaluating the perioperative regimen of neoadjuvant Opdivo (nivolumab) with chemotherapy followed by surgery and adjuvant Opdivo in patients with resectable stage 2A to 3B non-small cell lung cancer, the perioperative regimen showed a statistically significant and clinically meaningful improvement in the primary efficacy endpoint of event-free survival as assessed by Blinded Independent Central Review compared to neoadjuvant chemotherapy and placebo followed by surgery and adjuvant placebo.
Bristol Myers Squibb announced the final analysis of overall survival from the phase III CheckMate-816 study, which evaluated Opdivo (nivolumab) in combination with platinum-doublet chemotherapy as a neoadjuvant treatment for adult patients with resectable (tumors ≥ 4 cm or node positive) non-small cell lung cancer.
