Abstract

Immunotherapy with immune checkpoint inhibitors is an essential component of modern drug therapy for advanced non-small cell lung cancer. Phase 1-2 clinical trials of neoadjuvant immunotherapy (NAIT) of early-stage lung cancer are showing promising results. Phase 3 multicenter prospective studies to confirm the possibility of increasing overall survival in patients receiving preoperative immunotherapy are currently underway. The search for predictive biomarkers and the study of optimal methods for assessing the effectiveness of NAIT continue.
