364 KRAS mutations in patients with nonsquamous non–small-cell lung cancer: prevalence and relationship with PD-L1 expression, tumor mutation burden and smoking status

Background Pembrolizumab is a standard-of-care first-line treatment for advanced/metastatic NSCLC, either as monotherapy (for patients with PD-L1 tumor proportion score [TPS] ≥1%) or combined with platinum chemotherapy. An improved OS benefit has been demonstrated for both pembrolizumab monotherapy and pembrolizumab plus chemotherapy in patients with higher tumor PD-L1 expression, and for pembrolizumab monotherapy in patients with higher tissue...
