Abstract

Nivolumab has been approved by different regulatory agencies worldwide for the treatment of nSq-NSCLC based on its superiority in Overall Survival (OS) versus docetaxel in CheckMate 057 trial. In a pre-specified subgroup analysis of the same trial, this advantage was confirmed also in KRAS-mutation+ pts but the small number precluded any definitive conclusion. The Italian nivolumab EAP for non-sq-NSCLC might represent an important source of information in that respect. The current analysis describes results of the use of nivolumab in the group of EAP pts with KRAS mutations.
