Assessing the Long-Term Safety and Efficacy of Nivolumab Plus Chemotherapy for Broader Clinical Adoption in Advanced GI Cancers
Panelists discuss how the adoption of immunotherapy-chemotherapy combinations in clinical practice requires careful consideration of both long-term safety profiles and sustained efficacy data. A 5-year follow-up period generally provides valuable insights into delayed adverse events and durability of response, which helps inform risk-benefit assessments. The balance between safety and efficacy should be evaluated on a patient-specific basis, considering factors such as performance status, comorbidities, and tumor characteristics.
