Substantiation In de finale analyse van de progressie-vrije survival (PFS) werd een significante verbetering van de PFS geobserveerd in de toripalimab arm ten opzichte van de placebo arm (hazard ratio [HR] = 0.58; 95% CI, 0.46-0,74; p < 0.0001). Deze studie heeft volledig plaatsgevonden in China. Recent is pembrolizumab door de cieBOM goedgekeurd. Er wordt verwacht dat toripalimab een vergelijkbare effectiviteit zal hebben.
