Retevmo® (selpercatinib) Demonstrated Superior PFS vs a PD-1 Inhibitor + Chemo for Adults with Newly-Diagnosed Advanced or Metastatic RET Fusion-Positive NSCLC
“The LIBRETTO-431 trial aims to answer an important question about the selection of initial treatment for people with advanced RET fusion-positive NSCLC and these results suggest Retevmo should be considered a first-line standard of care,” said David Hyman, M.D., chief medical officer, Loxo@Lilly. “Additionally, this clinically meaningful achievement of improved outcomes underscores the importance of timely and comprehensive genomic testing to inform initial treatment decisions for all patients with NSCLC. The results of this study provide further confirmation that RET status – like EGFR, ALK, and others in the family of lung cancer oncogenic drivers – should be known prior to initiating therapy. We look forward to sharing these data in more detail with the oncology community.”
