Consolidative nivolumab versus observation in unresectable stage III non-small cell lung cancer patients following neoadjuvant nivolumab plus chemotherapy and concurrent chemoradiotherapy (CA209-7AL): a randomized clinical trial.

ABSTRACT: CA209-7AL is a randomized, multicenter, phase 2 trial evaluating the efficacy and safety of consolidative nivolumab (NIVO) versus observation following neoadjuvant NIVO plus chemotherapy and concurrent chemoradiotherapy (CCRT) for unresectable stage III NSCLC. Patients received 2 cycles of neoadjuvant chemo-NIVO therapy (docetaxel + cisplatin + NIVO) and CCRT (total dose 54-64 Gy). Post-CCRT, eligible patients were randomized 1:1 to receive consolidative NIVO (360 mg every 3 weeks for up to 12 months) or observation. The primary endpoint was progression-free survival (PFS) from randomization. Between December 3rd, 2019, and August 18th, 2023, 264 patients were enrolled, and 172 were randomized to NIVO consolidation (n = 86) or observation (n = 86). With a median follow-up of 22·8 months, N
