- Germany
Data from an exploratory analysis of a predefined subgroup of patients in the START trial, who received tecemotide after concurrent chemoradiotherapy (CRT), showed that these patients achieved a median OS of 30.8 months versus 20.6 months in patients treated with placebo (n=806; HR: 0.78; 95% CI 0.64–0.95; p=0.016). Concurrent CRT is a combination of chemotherapy and radiotherapy given at the same time.
