9033 Background: STK11 mutation ( STK11m) in patients with stage IV NSCLC is associated with inferior survival and poor response to immune check point inhibitors (ICI). The significance of STK11m in patients (pts) with stage III NSCLC treated with concurrent chemoradiation (CCRT) with and without consolidation ICI is unknown. Methods: Patient demographics, disease characteristics, treatment received and outcomes in pts with stage III NSCLC that harbor STK11m were retrospectively reviewed from 4 cancer centers. A cohort of pts with stage III NSCLC and wild type STK11 (STK11w) from the University of Iowa served as a comparison group. SPSS version 25 was used for data analysis. Results: 75 pts with stage III NSCLC who had gene sequencing were included. 16/75 (21%) had STK11m. The clinical characteristics for the 16 STK11m and 59 STK11w pts showed ( STK11m vs. STK11w): mean age: 58 vs. 64 yrs, non-squamous histology: 11/16 (69%) vs. 37/59 (63%), KRAS co-mutation: 6/16 (38%) vs. 11/59 (19%), TP53 co-mutation: 9/16 (56%) vs. 15/59 (25%), PD-L1 ≥ 50%: 2/16 (13%) vs. 10/59 (17%), received CCRT 11/16 (69%) vs. 59/59 (100%) and consolidation ICI 6/16 (38%) vs. 17/59 (29%). Regarding the 6 STK11m pts who received ICI (4 pembrolizumab, 2 durvalumab), the median number of ICI infusions was 8 (range, 3-17) vs. 7 (range, 1-25) in the 17 pts with STK11w who received ICI (durvalumab). Progression free survival (PFS) for the STK11m vs. STK11w pts who received CCRT but not ICI was (4.2 vs. 34.3 months, respectively. P = 0.168), for the STK11m vs. STK11w pts who received CCRT and ICI was (11.3 vs. 17.5 months, respectively. P = 0.174), and for the STK11m vs. STK11w pts who received CCRT regardless of receiving ICI (11.3 vs. 32.9 months, respectively. P = 0.021). The median overall survival for STK11m pts (16 pts) was 25.5 months (95% CI, 13.7 to 37.2) while not yet reached for the STK11w group. Conclusions: In stage III NSCLC, STK11m was associated with inferior clinical outcomes. Larger studies are needed to identify the prognostic implications of STK11m in stage III NSCLC and whether ICI impacts survival for this subgroup.

8538 Background: In cell line studies, YM155 showed markedly potent antiproliferative activity against melanoma with 50% growth inhibition (GI50) values ranging from 0.35 nM to 910 nM. In melanoma tumor-bearing mouse xenograft models, YM155 showed significant antitumor activity including regression of tumors, at doses ranging from 1 to 10 mg/kg/day. Methods: Chemotherapy naive patients with unresectable Stage III or IV melanoma were eligible. The primary endpoint was tumor response defined by RECIST criteria. Secondary endpoints included progression-free survival and toxicity. A Simon's two stage minimax design was utilized with the first stage requiring 1 response (N=27) and a total of 2 responses required at the conclusion of stage II (N=29). Patients were considered evaluable if they completed 2 cycles. YM155 was given as a 168-hour (7-day) continuous infusion every three weeks (1 cycle) at a dose of 4.8 mg/m2/day. Results: Enrollment is complete at 34 pts in order to reach 29 evaluable with treatment ongoing. Results are available for the first 26 pts. Median age was 59 y/o, (range 29 - 88) with ECOG PS of 0–1. There is one objective response of intrabdominal lymph nodes based on Investigator assessment at Cycle 2 confirmed at Cycle 4; another patient had a minor response (24% reduction) at Cycle 6 (currently at Cycle 8). Two subjects have shown stable disease after 6 cycles and remain on study. The median number of cycles is 3 (range 1 - 9). Two of 26 pts reported a grade 3 AE considered possibly related to YM155 (chest pain - nos and catheter related thrombosis). Nineteen of 26 pts have discontinued the study (18 PD, 1 withdrew consent). Conclusions: YM155 induced responses in 2 pts and was generally well tolerated. Given this encouraging response as a single agent, studies of YM155 combined with other agents are under consideration. [Table: see text]

6043 Background: We previously developed a novel regimen by the addition of Pem to RT and E (Ann Oncol 2011;22:2482). The current study evaluated PemE in the phase II setting and assessed the addition of B, an anti-VEGF monoclonal antibody, to PemE based on promising data with Pem/B (JCO 2011;29:1140) and E/B (Ann Oncol 2013;24:200) in recurrent/metastatic SCCHN. Methods: Patients (pts) with previously untreated stage III/IV SCCHN of the oropharynx, larynx or hypopharynx, performance status (PS) 0-1, no history of bleeding, and adequate laboratory parameters were randomized after stratification for PS, stage and site to: RT 2 Gy/day to 70Gy, E 250mg/m2 weekly, after a loading dose of 400 mg/m2 1 week prior starting RT, and Pem 500mg/m2 every 21 days x 3 cycles (arm A, PemE), or the same regimen plus B 15mg/kg every 21 days x 3 cycles during RT followed by B maintenance x 8 cycles (arm B, B-PemE), with antibiotic prophylaxis. The primary endpoint was progression-free survival (PFS) with a target of 64% at 2 years; planned sample size was 80. Results: 79 pts were randomized of whom 77 were eligible and analyzable (arm A/B:36/41); oropharynx 65/larynx 12; HPV+ 38/HPV- 15/HPV unknown 24; stage IV 54/stage III 23. 31 pts were enrolled in community centers. Treatment delivery of E and Pem was similar between arms: E, median number of doses 8 (range, 5-11); Pem 3 (2-3); and B 3 (1-3). 5 deaths occurred: 3 due to progression; 1 from unknown cause; 1 pt died from hemoptysis after bronchoscopy within 4 weeks of the 8th cycle of B leading to elimination of B maintenance after the 6th pt was enrolled. 9 pts (2 HPV+) progressed. With a median follow-up of 18 months, the 2-year PFS was 81% vs 87% and the 2-year overall survival (OS) was 96% vs 86% for arm A vs B. Grade 3/4 acute toxicities for arm A vs B (N=59) : dermatitis 3/1 vs 4/1; mucositis 13/2 vs 13/0; neutropenia 7/4 vs 7/3; rash 6/1 vs 8/1; fatigue 1/0 vs 3/0; weight loss 2/0 vs 5/0. Conclusions: Both regimens are feasible in academic and community practice settings with expected toxicities. Preliminary efficacy results are very promising and better than projected, however, the addition of B does not appear to improve outcomes. Clinical trial information: NCT00703976.

9010 Background: Consolidation PD-1/PD-L1 inhibition after chemoradiation (CRT) for unresectable stage III NSCLC improves overall survival. In stage IV NSCLC, the combination of nivolumab/ipilimumab improved overall survival compared to chemotherapy in patients with PD-L1 > 1% and performed favorably in patients with PD-L1 < 1%. The safety of consolidation nivolumab/ipilimumab after CRT has not been previously assessed. Methods: In this randomized, multi-center, phase II study, a total of 105 planned pts with unresectable stage IIIA/IIIB NSCLC will receive chemoradiation, then randomize 1:1 to either nivolumab 480mg IV q4 wks (Arm A) or nivolumab 3mg/kg IV q2 wks + ipilimumab 1mg/kg IV q6 wks (Arm B), for up to 24 wks. In this planned interim analysis, the safety of the first 50 patients, with 25 patients treated on each arm, is assessed. Results: From 9/2017 to 6/2019, the first 50 patients were accrued and analyzed for this planned safety analysis. Baseline characteristics for Arm A/B: median age 64/62, stage IIIA 17/16, stage IIIB 8/9, non-squamous 14/13, squamous 11/12. The median number of cycles completed in Arm A was 6 (range 1-6, cycle length q4 wks) and in Arm B was 4 (range 1-4, cycle length q6 wks). The rate of treatment-related adverse events leading to discontinuation of therapy was 16% in Arm A and 40% in Arm B. The percentage of patients with any > grade 3 adverse event (AE) was 32% in Arm A and 44% in Arm B. With respect to immune-related AE (irAEs), the percentage of patients with any ≥grade 2 was 44% in Arm A and 60% in Arm B; any ≥ grade 3 irAEs was 16% in Arm A and 32% in Arm B. The incidence of > grade 2 pneumonitis was 16% in Arm A and 36% in Arm B. The percentage of patients with > grade 3 pneumonitis was 4% in Arm A and 20% in Arm B. No treatment-related deaths were reported on either arm. Conclusions: In the post chemoradiation setting, the incidence of > grade 3 toxicity was greater in the consolidative nivolumab/ipilimumab arm, which resulted in a higher rate of treatment discontinuation than nivolumab alone. The Data and Safety Monitoring Board recommended continued enrollment without modification to the trial and the study currently remains open to accrual (66 of 105 patients have been enrolled as of 1/17/2020). Clinical trial information: NCT03285321.

8510 Background: CRT is standard treatment (Tx) for pts with unresectable stage III NSCLC. Vel, a potent oral PARP1/2 inhibitor, interferes with repair of chemotherapy- or radiation-induced DNA damage. In a phase 2 study, Vel showed favorable efficacy vs placebo when added to C/P in stage IV NSCLC. The reported phase 1 trial assessed the safety and efficacy of Vel + C/P-based CRT in Tx of stage III NSCLC (NCT02412371). Methods: Eligible pts (≥18 yr, unresectable stage III NSCLC, no prior NSCLC therapy) received Vel + CRT of weekly C area under the curve (AUC) 2 + P 45 mg/m2 weekly + 60 Gy (2 Gy/day) RT over 6–9 weeks (wk). Vel was dose escalated from 60 mg twice daily (BID) to 240 mg BID followed by Vel 120 mg BID added to consolidation therapy (CON) once every 3 wk of C AUC 6 + P 200 mg/m2 for 2 cycles (cohort 1–5). Cohort 6 received Vel 240 mg BID + CRT followed by Vel 240 mg BID + CON. Samples for pharmacokinetic (PK) analysis were collected on wk 4 day –3. The primary endpoint was to establish the recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D) of Vel + CRT/Vel + CON. Results: As of Sep 2018, 48 pts enrolled into cohorts 1–6 at Vel 60 mg/120 mg (n = 7), 80 mg/120 mg (n = 9), 120 mg/120 mg (n = 7), 200 mg/120 mg (n = 8), 240 mg/120 mg (n = 12), and 240 mg/240 mg (n = 5) added to CRT/CON; median age 65 yr (range, 48–81). Vel PK was dose proportional; 39 (81.3%) pts completed therapy. Grade ≥3 Tx-emergent adverse events (AEs) were reported in 37 (77.1%) pts; anemia and febrile neutropenia (10.4% each) were the most common. Serious AEs were observed in 19 (39.6%) pts. Dose-limiting toxicities occurred at 200 mg/120 mg (n = 1; influenza and pneumonia), 240 mg/120 mg (n = 1; insomnia), and 240 mg/240 mg (n = 2; febrile neutropenia, neutropenia, thrombocytopenia, esophagitis, suprapubic pain, sepsis); Vel 240 mg BID + CRT/Vel 120 mg + CON was chosen as the maximum tolerated dose/RP2D. Of 41 pts evaluable for tumor assessment, 26 (63.4%) had a confirmed response. Interim median progression-free survival was 24.1 mo (range, 8.9 – not reached); updated results will be reported. Conclusions: Vel 240 + CRT/Vel 120 mg BID + CON was well tolerated with promising antitumor activity in stage III NSCLC and was determined as RP2D. Clinical trial information: NCT02412371.

8511 Background: In the placebo-controlled Phase III PACIFIC trial of patients with unresectable Stage III NSCLC whose disease had not progressed after platinum-based concurrent chemoradiotherapy (cCRT), durvalumab improved overall survival (OS) (stratified hazard ratio [HR] 0.68; 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.53–0.87; p=0.0025; data cutoff [DCO] Mar 22, 2018) and progression-free survival (PFS) (stratified HR 0.52, 95% CI 0.42–0.65; p<0.0001; DCO Feb 13, 2017) based on the DCOs used for the primary analyses, and the degree of benefit remained consistent in subsequent updates. Durvalumab was associated with a manageable safety profile, and did not detrimentally affect patient-reported outcomes, compared with placebo. These findings established consolidation durvalumab after CRT (the ‘PACIFIC regimen’) as the standard of care in this setting. We report updated, exploratory analyses of OS and PFS, assessed approximately 5 years after the last patient was randomized. Methods: Patients with WHO PS 0/1 (and any tumor PD-L1 status) whose disease did not progress after cCRT (≥2 overlapping cycles) were randomized (2:1) 1–42 days following cCRT (total prescription radiotherapy dose typically 60–66 Gy in 30–33 fractions) to receive 12 months’ durvalumab (10 mg/kg IV every 2 weeks) or placebo, stratified by age (<65 vs ≥65 years), sex, and smoking history (current/former smoker vs never smoked). The primary endpoints were OS and PFS (blinded independent central review; RECIST v1.1) in the intent-to-treat (ITT) population. HRs and 95% CIs were estimated using stratified log-rank tests in the ITT population. Medians and OS/PFS rates at 60 months were estimated with the Kaplan–Meier method. Results: Overall, 709/713 randomized patients received treatment in either the durvalumab (n/N=473/476) or placebo (n/N=236/237) arms. The last patient had completed study treatment in May 2017. As of Jan 11, 2021 (median follow-up duration of 34.2 months in all patients; range, 0.2–74.7 months), updated OS (stratified HR 0.72, 95% CI 0.59–0.89; median 47.5 vs 29.1 months) and PFS (stratified HR 0.55, 95% CI 0.45–0.68; median 16.9 vs 5.6 months) remained consistent with the results from the primary analyses. The 60-month OS rates were 42.9% and 33.4% with durvalumab and placebo, respectively, and 60-month PFS rates were 33.1% and 19.0%, respectively. Updated treatment effect estimates for patient subgroups will be presented. Conclusions: These updated survival analyses, based on 5-year data from PACIFIC, demonstrate robust and sustained OS plus durable PFS benefit with the PACIFIC regimen. An estimated 42.9% of patients randomized to durvalumab remain alive at 5 years and approximately a third remain both alive and free of disease progression. Clinical trial information: NCT02125461.

e20557 Background: The present study evaluates outcome after chemoradiotherapy (CRT) with concurrent and/or sequential Programmed Cell Death 1 (PD-1) or Ligand 1 (PD-L1) immune checkpoint inhibition (CPI) for inoperable stage III NSCLC patients depending on planning target volume (PTV). Methods: Prospective data of thirty-nine consecutive patients with inoperable stage III NSCLC who completed CRT with sequential durvalumab (72%, 28 patients) or concurrent and sequential nivolumab (28%, 11 patients) were analyzed. Different cut offs for PTV as well as PTV as a continuous variable were evaluated for association with progression-free survival (PFS) and extracranial metastasis-free survival (eMFS). Results: All patients were treated with conventionally fractionated TRT to a total dose of at least 60 Gy (range: 60-63.6Gy), 97% (27 patients) received two cycles of concurrent platinum-based chemotherapy. Median follow-up for the entire cohort was 23.2 (range: 6.0-42.6) months; median overall survival (OS) and eMFS were not reached. Median Progression-free survival (PFS) was 22.8 (95% CI: 10.3-35.2) months. Age (65 years), gender and UICC stage had no significant impact on PFS. There was no significant difference between durvalumab and nivolumab patients. Patients with PTV ≥ 900ccm had a significantly shorter PFS (11.77 vs 26.3 months, p = 0.049) and eMFS (11.7 months vs not reached, p = 0.019). Furthermore, patients with PTV ≥ 900ccm and stage IIIC disease (TNM 8th Ed.) achieved a dismal median PFS of only 3.6 months (vs. 26.3 months p < 0.001). PTV as a continuous variable showed a trend for association with PFS (p = 0.064) and was a significant negative prognosticator for eMFS (p = 0.030; HR: 4.065; 95%CI: 1.148-14.397). Conclusions: PTV has a significant impact on the PFS and eMFS after CRT combined with concurrent and/or sequential CPI in inoperable stage III NSCLC. Patients with PTV ≥ 900ccm had a significantly shorter PFS and eMFS.

9500 Background: The phase 3 double-blind EORTC 1325/KEYNOTE-054 trial evaluated pembrolizumab (pembro) vs placebo in stage III cutaneous melanoma patients (pts) with complete resection of lymph nodes. Pembro improved RFS (hazard ratio [HR] 0.57) and DMFS (HR 0.60) (Eggermont, NEJM 2018, TLO 2021). In the pembro group, the incidence of immune related AE (irAE) grade 1-5 was 37%, and of grade 3-5 was 7%. We present the safety profile, response rate and PFS for the subset of pts who had a recurrence and crossed over or were rechallenged with pembrolizumab, within protocol. Methods: Pts were randomized to receive iv. pembro 200 mg (N=514) or placebo (N=505) every 3 weeks for a total of 18 doses (~1 year). Upon recurrence with no brain metastases, pts with an ECOG PS 0-2 were eligible to enter part 2 of the study, i.e. to receive pembro 200 mg iv. every 3 weeks for a maximum of 2 years, for crossover (those who received placebo) or rechallenge (those who recurred ≥6 months after completing one year of pembro therapy). Treatment was stopped in case of disease progression (RECIST 1.1) or unacceptable toxicity. Results: At the clinical cut-off (16-Oct-2020), 298 (59%) pts had a disease recurrence in the placebo group; 155 pts participated in the crossover part 2 of the trial. A total of 297 (58%) pts completed the 1-yr pembro adjuvant treatment, of whom 47 had a recurrence ≥6 mths from the stop of treatment and 20 entered in the rechallenge part of the trial. Among 175 pts who started pembro in Part 2, 160 discontinued due to completion of therapy (N=24), disease progression (N=88), toxicity (N=20), investigator's decision (N=21), or other reason (N=7); 15 pts were still on-treatment. Results for the 2 groups are provided in the table. The median number of doses was 12 and 5.5, respectively (resp), and the median follow-up was 41 and 19 mts, resp. Among the 175 pts, 51 (29%) had a grade 1-4 irAE (by group: 47 [30%] and 4 [20%] resp) and 11 (6%) a grade 3-4 irAE. Conclusions: Pembrolizumab treatment after crossover yielded a 39% ORR in evaluable pts and an overall 3-yr PFS of ̃32%, but after rechallenge the efficacy was lower. Merck Sharp & Dohme Corp., a subsidiary of Merck & Co., Inc., Kenilworth, NJ, USA The median PFS (95% CI) from start of Part 2 was 14 (5-27) and 8 (5-15) mts for stage III-resected and III/IV various, resp. Among the 80 stage IV crossover pts with evaluable disease, 31 (39%) had an objective response: 14 (18%) CR, 17 (21%) PR. The 2-yr PFS rate from response was 69% (95% CI 48-83%). For these 80 pts, the median PFS was 6.1 mts and the 3-yr PFS rate was 31% (95% CI 21-41%). Among 9 stage IV rechallenged pts with an evaluable disease, 1 (11%) reached CR, 3 had SD and 5 PD.

Abstract Bevacizumab is approved as a maintenance treatment in first-line setting in advanced-stage III-IV ovarian cancers, because GOG-0218 and ICON-7 phase III trials demonstrated progression-free survival benefits. However, only the subgroup of patients with high-risk diseases (stage IV, and incompletely resected stage III) derived an overall survival (OS) gain in the ICON-7 trial (4.8 months). The modeled CA-125 elimination rate constant K (KELIM) parameter, based on the longitudinal CA-125 kinetics during the first 100 days of chemotherapy, is a potential indicator of the tumor primary chemo-sensitivity. In the ICON-7 trial dataset, the OS of patients within the low- and high-risk disease groups was assessed according to treatment arms and KELIM. Among the patients with high-risk diseases, those with favorable standardized KELIM of at least 1.0 (n = 214, 46.7%) had no survival benefit from bevacizumab, whereas those with unfavorable KELIM less than 1.0 (n = 244, 53.2%) derived the highest OS benefit (absolute difference = 9.1 months, 2-sided log-rank P = .10; Cox hazard ratio = 0.78, 95% confidence interval = 0.58 to 1.04, 2-sided P = .09).

Abstract Abstract 4942 INTRODUCTION. Patients with Mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) have an adverse outcome after relapse due to chemorefractory disease with conventional treatments. Bendamustine, a nitrogen mustard compound chemically related to the alkylating agents, has demonstrated high efficacy with a low toxicity profile in reported clinical trials. AIM. To analyze the Spanish experience in patients with relapsed/refractory MCL treated with Bendamustine. METHODS. Retrospective analysis of spanish experience in relapsed/refractory MCL treated with Bendamustine alone or in combination. This study has been approved by local ethical committees. RESULTS. Currently, there are 36 patients registered and 28 are available for this analysis. Patients'characteristics: 69% male, median age 65 years old (range 41–81), 87% ECOG≤ 1, 83% Ann Arbor stage IV, 37% high risk MIPI and 9% blastic variant. Previous regimens were CHOP or CHOP like ± R in 42.5%, HyperCVAD/MtxAraC ± R in 42.5%, R-CVP in 9% and other regimens in 6%. Median number of previous treatments were 2.6 (range 1–6), all patients had received prior Rituximab and 73% had chemosensitive disease to the last treatment. Bendamustine regimen was R-B (R-375mg/m2 D1, B-90 mg/m2 D1-2) in 78% patients, R-B with B-70 mg/m2 in 8%, B alone in 3%, R-B-Bortezomib in 3% and R-B plus consolidation (SCT, Y90Ibritumomab-tiuxetan) in 8%. Median number of cycles was 4.61 (range 1–7). G- CSF support was administered in 43% of cycles. Response: Overall response rate was 73%, with 43% CR & uCR and 30% PR. Survival: Median overall survival from diagnosis is 8,26 years (range: 1.6–11,6 years) without plateau. Median progression free survival (PFS) after Bendamustine treatment was 16 months (95% CI: 11.7–20.4), data that compares favourably with patients' PFS to previous therapy (12 months, 95% CI: 6.5–17.5). Median PFS for patients who achieved CR/uCR is 32.6 months (95% CI: 19.9–45.4) versus 11 months in patients with PR (95% CI: 3.9–18.8). With a median follow-up for surviving patients of 12 months since Bendamustine treatment, the estimated OS at 3 years is 47% (+ SD 14%). Toxicity: No treatment related mortality has been described so far. Over 152 cycles, only 10 hospitalizations due to febrile neutropenia were reported. No one case of lysis tumoral syndrome has been reported. CONCLUSION. Bendamustine plus Rituximab is a good rescue treatment in non selected pretreated patients with mantle cell lymphoma. CR rate and duration of response seem to reproduce in current clinical practice the good data reported in previous clinical trials and compares favourably with other available treatments. Disclosures: No relevant conflicts of interest to declare.

7080 Background: Thymoma is considered to be sensitive to Cx. Dose intensive Cx might well be suitable for such tumors, especially in combination with local therapy. Objectives of the trials were to evaluate the safety and efficacy of the dose intensive CODE (cisplatin[C]- vincristine[O]- doxorubicin[D]- etoposide[E]) Cx in thymoma. The primary endpoint was progression-free survival time (PFS). Methods: Patients (pts) with 15–70 years of age with histologically documented Cx-naïve thymoma with stage IVa/IVb disease (JCOG 9605) or unresectable stage III disease (JCOG 9606) were eligible. Tumors of other histology, such as thymic carcinoma, carcinoid or lymphoma were excluded; pts were to have ample organ function and ECOG PS of 0–2. Myasthenia was allowed. Signed consent form was obtained. Pts received CODE Cx of 9 weeks (w): C 25 mg/m2 Cx day 1 on each w1–9; O 1mg/m2 d1 on w1,2,4,6,8; D 40 mg/m2 d1 and E 80 mg/m2 d1,2,3 on w 1,3,5,7,9. Cx courses were supported by GCSF. Steroids were used only for antiemesis. Those with stage III disease (JCOG 9606) went on to surgery, if judged to be resectable, and post-operative radiotherapy (RT) of 48Gy; those with unresectable disease received 60Gy RT. Results: From Jul./97 to Apr./05, 53 pts were entered to the studies. Five were found ineligible because of different histology. Pt characteristics and response to the Cx were summarized in the table . Toxicity of the Cx was mainly hematologic and generally well tolerated, with no toxic death; 70% of the pts completed planned 9 weeks. Thirteen pts in JCOG 9606 (stage III) received thoracotomy; tumor was resected in 11 pts, completely in 9 (39% of enrolled pts). Pathologic CR was observed in 3. The median PFS was 9.5m for stage IV and 4.5 y for stage III diseases. Overall survival at 2 & 5 yrs were 82% & 57% for stage IV and 96% & 77% for stage III pts. Conclusions: Short-course, dose intensive Cx was active against thymoma. Although it does not seem to bring long PFS in stage IV pts, it could improve resectability in limited disease.
