#Tecentriq

Combining a personalized cancer vaccine and a checkpoint inhibitor generated tumor-specific immune responses in a majority of patients

Initial treatment with atezolizumab led to longer overall survival in people with high biomarker levels.

“As far as we know, immunotherapy on its own would not make patients more susceptible to COVID-19."

Tecentriq plus Avastin improved both overall survival and patient-reported outcomes.

Keytruda improves response rates for hard-to-treat breast cancer, but Tecentriq falls short.

Progression-free and overall survival improved in patients treated with Tecentriq plus chemotherapy.

Atezolizumab plus chemotherapy delays disease progression in people with metastatic triple-negative breast cancer.

Tecentriq plus Abraxane was approved under accelerated approval based on progression-free survival.

Checkpoint inhibitor immunotherapy, alone or in combination with chemotherapy, shows promise for advanced non-small-cell lung cancer.

Tecentriq combo slows progression of hard-to-treat breast cancer.

Tecentriq plus chemotherapy and Avastin delays disease progression and death.

Tecentriq plus chemotherapy delays disease progression or death in people with metastatic triple-negative breast cancer.

Because so few people diagnosed with SCLC survive for even a year despite treatment, an advance in survival rate is quite significant.

James Allison and Tasuku Honjo recognized for immune checkpoint discoveries.
