CHICAGO – Atezolizumab, an antibody that targets PD-L1, achieves a median survival of 14.8 months in cisplatin-ineligible patients with locally advanced or metastatic urothelial carcinoma, according to findings of the IMvigor210 trial’s cohort 1. Researchers presented the findings this week at the annual meeting of the American Society of Clinical Oncology.
In an interview at the meeting, lead author Dr. Arjun Vasant Balar of the department of medicine at the New York University Langone Medical Center and director of genitourinary medical oncology at the NYU Perlmutter Cancer Center, discussed the study and its implications. In particular, he weighed in on key issues, such as whether PD-L1 status predicts benefit and where atezolizumab may ultimately fit into the treatment armamentarium for this disease.
