Positive Results Demonstrating ANKTIVA as a Lymphocyte Stimulating Agent in Combination with Checkpoint Inhibitors in NSCLC Announced
“Today, the default standard of care for these patients remains cytotoxic chemotherapy such as docetaxel, which is associated with substantial toxicity and limited survival benefit,” said Patrick Soon-Shiong, M.D., Founder, Executive Chairman, and Global Chief Scientific and Medical Officer of ImmunityBio. “Large, randomized trials have demonstrated median overall survival of approximately nine months with docetaxel. The results from these studies support a potential paradigm shift toward what we define as Immunotherapy 2.0, which is the coordinated activation of the innate immune system through natural killer cells and the adaptive immune system through T cells to restore immune competence and extend survival.”
