Immunotherapy has shown efficacy in lung cancer, with several drugs already approved for patients with non–small-cell lung cancer (anti–PD-1 agent nivolumab, anti–PD-L1 agents pembrolizumab and atezolizumab).
In this video, Gregory P. Kalemkerian, MD, of the University of Michigan Health System, discusses immunotherapies in the small-cell lung cancer (SCLC) setting.
Kalemkerian reviews the results of several trials in SCLC, including nivolumab monotherapy or in combination with the CTLA-4 blocker ipilimumab, and pembrolizumab.
