“The five-year results from EMPOWER-Lung 1 showcase the durable survival benefit and impressive efficacy of first-line Libtayo monotherapy compared to chemotherapy in patients with PD-L1 high, advanced NSCLC, including a direct correlation between survival benefits and PD-L1 expression level,” says Ana Baramidze, MD, PhD, Head of Clinical Research Department at Todua Clinic, Tbilisi, Georgia. “Furthermore, EMPOWER-Lung 1 continues to offer important new data to help doctors increase their understanding of investigational treatment strategies for patients who progress on PD-1 inhibitor monotherapy. For instance, EMPOWER-Lung 1 was one of the few trials to evaluate survival when adding chemotherapy to a PD-1 inhibitor following progression.”
