Neoadjuvant Anti PD-1 Immunotherapy in Resectable Non-small Cell Lung Cancer (NEOMUN)

Open-label, single arm, prospective, monocenter, phase II study of pembrolizumab in a neoadjuvant setting in patients with resectable NSCLC stage II/III

  • Primary objective: to assess feasibility and safety of neoadjuvant pembrolizumab and to assess clinical and pathologic tumor response
  • Secondary objective: to assess the impact of neoadjuvant pembrolizumab on patient disease free and overall survival.
  • Exploratory objective: to explore potential predictive biomarkers for pembrolizumab efficacy (immune cell imaging)

NIVOLUMAB WITH CHEMOTHERAPY IN PLEURAL MESOTHELIOMA AFTER SURGERY (NIKITA)

Open-label, multicenter, randomized (1:1), controlled study including patients with malignant pleural mesothelioma (MPM) in tumor stages I-III who have previously undergone cytoreductive surgery by extended pleurectomy/decortication with or without hyperthermic intrathoracic chemoperfusion (eP/D ± HITOC). Primary objective: time to next treatment, feasibility and safety. Tumor tissue, blood and stool samples will
