Actual LIBTAYO patient and caregiver.
LIBTAYO was studied in a clinical trial that compared adult patients
with advanced NSCLC who received LIBTAYO with those who received chemotherapy.The study was designed to include adult patients if their tumor tested positive for the biomarker PD-L1 at a level greater than or equal to 50% and if they did not have abnormal EGFR, ALK, or ROS1 genes.
356 patients were given LIBTAYO 350 mg every 3 weeks
354 patients were
given chemotherapy containing platinumAs a first treatment, LIBTAYO used alone was proven to help patients live longer versus chemotherapy used alone
Median overall survival (OS)*
*Median overall survival (OS) is the time in a trial—expressed in months or years—when half of the patients are still living.
More patients were alive with LIBTAYO
As of March 2020, results from the trial showed that more patients taking LIBTAYO were alive compared with chemotherapy alone.†
†Patients were enrolled on an ongoing basis between May 29, 2017, and March 1, 2020. Patients were treated with LIBTAYO for an average of 27 weeks. The study is still ongoing, and patients will be followed up with for up to 4 years.
LIBTAYO used alone reduced the chance of advanced NSCLC progressing compared with chemotherapy alone
LIBTAYO used alone reduced the risk of cancer spreading, growing, or getting worse by 41% compared with chemotherapy alone.
Median progression-free survival (PFS)‡
‡Median progression-free survival (PFS) is the time in a trial—expressed in months or years—when half of the patients are still living without their cancer spreading, growing, or getting worse.
As of March 2020, advanced NSCLC had not progressed in more patients taking LIBTAYO compared with chemotherapy alone.§
