Toripalimab plus chemotherapy for first line treatment of advanced non-small cell lung cancer (CHOICE-01): final OS and biomarker exploration of a randomized, double-blind, phase 3 trial.

ABSTRACT: A randomized double-blind phase 3 trial (CHOICE-01, NCT03856411) demonstrated that combining toripalimab with chemotherapy substantially improves progression-free survival (PFS) in advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients without pretreatment. This study presents the prespecified final analysis of overall survival (OS) and biomarkers utilizing circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) and tissue-based sequencing. Additionally, the analysis revealed a higher median overall survival (OS, 23.8 months) in the toripalimab group than that in the control group (17.0 months). (HR = 0.69, 95%CI: 0.57-0.93, nominal P = 0.01). This survival benefit was particularly notable in the non-squamous subgroup. As the first phase 3 study to perform both baseline tissue whole-exome sequencing (WES) and periphe
