BeiGene Trial of Lung-Cancer Treatment Reaches Primary Endpoints

By Ben Glickman

 

BeiGene's trial of the use of tislelizumab to treat resectable non-small cell lung cancer, when combined with chemotherapy, reached its dual primary endpoints.

The biotechnology company said on Tuesday that its Phase 3 trial met endpoints for major pathological response and event-free survival. The trial found statistically significant and clinically meaningful improvements in resectable NSCLC patients when treated with tislelizumab and chemotherapy before surgery, then as a single agent post-surgery.

The trial also showed a statistically significant improvement in pathological complete response, a key secondary endpoint.
