Evolution of Therapy in Lung Cancer
 NSCLC was once considered a single disease, until distinct subtypes, characteristics identified[1-4]
 NSCLC subtype characteristics are clinically relevant for treatment planning from diagnosis[1]

Conclusions
 Checkpoint inhibitors have become first-line standard of care as monotherapy or in
combination with chemotherapy for a cohort of lung cancer patients
 PD-L1 can be used to select patients for single-agent pembrolizumab, atezolizumab,
or nivolumab + ipilimumab
 Combination checkpoint inhibitor therapy lacks a good biomarker but is standard of
care in patients with PD-L1 < 50%
 STK11 and KEAP1 genomic alterations are associated with poor clinical outcomes
with chemotherapy and immunotherapy in nonsquamous NSCLC
 Ongoing phase III trials are comparing checkpoint inhibition to chemotherapy or in
combination with chemotherapy in patients in the neoadjuvant setting and may help
us answer some open questions

  • 43. Conclusions  Checkpoint inhibitors have become first-line standard of care as monotherapy or in combination with chemotherapy for a cohort of lung cancer patients  PD-L1 can be used to select patients for single-agent pembrolizumab, atezolizumab, or nivolumab + ipilimumab  Combination checkpoint inhibitor therapy lacks a good biomarker but is standard of care in patients with PD-L1 < 50%  STK11 and KEAP1 genomic alterations are associated with poor clinical outcomes with chemotherapy and immunotherapy in nonsquamous NSCLC  Ongoing phase III trials are comparing checkpoint inhibition to chemotherapy or in combination with chemotherapy in patients in the neoadjuvant setting and may help us answer some open questions
