New study finds atezolizumab with chemo cuts colon cancer recurrence by half in certain patients.
New research shows that adding the immunotherapy drug atezolizumab to chemotherapy after surgery for stage 3 colon cancer with deficient DNA mismatch repair (dMMR) can reduce the risk of cancer recurrence and death by 50% compared to chemotherapy alone.
The phase 3 ATOMIC trial, which included 712 patients, demonstrated a 3-year disease-free survival rate of 86.4% for the combination treatment versus 76.6% for chemotherapy alone.
Researchers plan to recommend this combination as a new standard treatment for certain colon cancer patients.
