Nivolumab is a human programmed death receptor-1 blocking antibody, used as treatment option in patients with advanced non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC). We assessed the nivolumab efficacy terms of survival and response to second-line (2L) or third-line (3L) therapy NSCLC. This multicentric observational study. Data NSCLC who received 2L 3L were analyzed retrospectively. Information regarding patient demographics clinical backgrounds, patterns from diagnosis post-nivolumab treatment,...

e12521 Background: The genomic-based 21-gene recurrence-score assay (Oncotype DX, Genomic Health)(ODx) is used to decide on the use of adjuvant chemotherapy (ACT) in luminal-type Early-Breast Cancer (LT-EBC). Patients with low RS can safely avoid ACT. Other predictive models based standard clinical and histopathological (C&H) variables also have been developed. These include, Magee equations (ME), Predict model (PM), Tennessee nomogram score (TNS). This study aims establish concordance...
