RE: anti-CTLA4 IO contribution to 1L NSCLC, is there any space left?
Early enthusiasm disapeared as data from trials start to role in: ncbi.nlm.nih.gov
and, there is additional concern... ncbi.nlm.nih.gov
Severe toxicity pushed toward regime where Ipi is taight controled...still, data were short of expectation.
Now, investigator (even with latest bit positive outcome) are rolling out anti-CTLA4 arm.

for instance, in cemiplimab second 1L NSCLC ( clinicaltrials.gov ), ipi arm was not included in part-2 (randomized part) of the chemo-combination.

In all, without good biomarker(s) that can predict benefit of the aCTLA4, due to severe toxicity and in same cases worse outcome...it may slowly disappear as option.

BMY is looking at triple IO regime (214 + nivo + Ipi), including NSCLC (in addition to RCC, melanoma and UC), MRK is still silent on their aCTLA4 regime/molecule.
