WCLC 2025: Cadonilimab – Pulocimab Combo Shows Promising Results in IO-Resistant NSCLC 

The combination of cadonilimab and pulocimab also offers a potentially chemo-free option for advanced IO resistant NSCLC patients. The data presented at the 2025 WCLC demonstrated that the cadonilimab plus pulocimab regimen shows encouraging efficacy and broad clinical potential in patients with advanced or metastatic NSCLC who progressed after first-line standard immunotherapy-based treatment, offering a promising effective and safe therapeutic option for IO-resistant lung cancer patients: As of January 13, 2025, with a median follow-up of 16.7 months, the cadonilimab-based combination achieved a median overall survival (mOS) of 15.6 months and a median progression-free survival (mPFS) of 5.8 months in IO-resistant NSCLC. In the squamous NSCLC (sqNSCLC) subgroup, mOS was 16.7 months, mPFS was 7.1 months, the disease control rate (DCR) reached 96.2%, and the objective response rate (ORR) was 11.5%. In the non-squamous NSCLC (nsq-NSCLC) subgroup, mOS was 12.8 months, mPFS was 5.5 months, DCR was 95.2%, and ORR was 14.3%.
