TL;DR: Overall survival and objective response rates were significantly higher with nivolumab plus ipilimumab than with sunitinib among intermediate‐ and poor‐risk patients with previously untreated advanced renal‐cell carcinoma.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: Treatment with atezolizumab resulted in a significantly improved RECIST v1.1 response rate, compared with a historical control overall response rate of 10%, and Exploratory analyses showed The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) subtypes and mutation load to be independently predictive for response to atezolediazepine.

TL;DR: Tumours from a large cohort of patients with metastatic urothelial cancer who were treated with an anti-PD-L1 agent were examined and major determinants of clinical outcome were identified and suggested that TGFβ shapes the tumour microenvironment to restrain anti-tumour immunity by restricting T-cell infiltration.
Journal ArticleDOI
MPDL3280A (anti-PD-L1) treatment leads to clinical activity in metastatic bladder cancer
Thomas Powles,Joseph Paul Eder,Gregg Fine,Fadi Braiteh,Yohann Loriot,Cristina Cruz,Joaquim Bellmunt,Howard A. Burris,Daniel P. Petrylak,Siew-leng Melinda Teng,Xiaodong Shen,Zachary Boyd,Priti S. Hegde,Daniel S. Chen,Nicholas J. Vogelzang +14 more
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that tumours expressing PD-L1-positive tumour-infiltrating immune cells had particularly high response rates, and patients with UBC, who are often older and have a higher incidence of renal impairment, may be better able to tolerate MPDL3280A versus chemotherapy.
