welcomes you to the new, improved website!This randomized trial compared chemoradiotherapy alone to chemoradiotherapy followed by consolidation therapy with the PDL-1 antibody durvalumab in patients with stage III NSCLC. The treatment group had significantly improved progression-free survival, response rate, and overall survival, with clinically meaningful differences between the groups. The findings suggest that such regimens may be the new standard of care in these patients.
