RATIONALE 001: Tislelizumab (BGB-A317) + concurrent chemoradiotherapy (cCRT) followed by tislelizumab monotherapy in patients (pts) with newly diagnosed locally advanced, unresectable, stage III non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC)
Year: 2019
Type: article
Abstract: Background: In pts with locally advanced, unresectable, stage III NSCLC, cCRT is associated with better survival than radiotherapy (RT) alone, but 5-y survival remains poor. Immunotherapies targeting PD-1/PD-L1 may be synergistic with cCRT, improving outcomes. Tislelizumab, an anti–PD-1 antibody, showed clinical activity/tolerability in solid tumors, including NSCLC. RATIONALE 001 is a phase III, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial evaluating the efficacy and safety of first-line tislelizumab + cCRT in pts with locally advanced, unresectable, stage III NSCLC.
