Phase 3 Study of Tifcemalimab plus Toripalimab for Treatment of Limited-stage Small Cell Lung Cancer initiated
“In recent years, immune-oncology (I-O) therapy has made rapid advancements, particularly in the field of lung cancer, where it has emerged as the standard of care for first-line treatment of advanced NSCLC,” said Dr. Jianjun ZOU, the Global Research and Development President of Junshi Biosciences. “Regarding more aggressive SCLC, however, the progress in I-O therapy has been relatively slow. To date, no immune checkpoint inhibitor has received approval for the treatment of LS-SCLC. Tifcemalimab is Junshi Biosciences’ first independently developed ‘first-in-class’ product, and it bears the potential to be combined with our cornerstone antibody, toripalimab, and enhance patient response to I-O therapy, increase the number of patients who can benefit from I-O therapy, and introduce new breakthroughs in the treatment of LS-SCLC patients!”
