FDA approves Imfinzi for limited-stage small cell lung cancer, marking first immunotherapy for this type.
The FDA has approved Imfinzi (durvalumab) by AstraZeneca for treating adults with limited-stage small cell lung cancer (LS-SCLC) that has not progressed after initial chemotherapy and radiation.
Based on the ADRIATIC trial, Imfinzi reduced the risk of death by 27% with a median survival of 55.9 months compared to 33.4 months with a placebo.
This approval marks the first immunotherapy treatment for LS-SCLC, offering an alternative to traditional chemotherapy and potentially improving survival rates.
