Groundbreaking studies have reshaped the treatment landscape for patients with resectable stage ≥IIIB melanoma by demonstrating the benefits of neoadjuvant therapy. Data from the NADINA and SWOG S1801 trials reveal substantial improvements in event-free survival compared to adjuvant therapy alone. These studies employed distinct neoadjuvant immunotherapy approaches - ipilimumab plus nivolumab in NADINA and anti-PD-1 monotherapy in SWOG S1801 - highlighting potential differences in efficacy and toxicity.

Background: Patients with gastro-oesophageal adenocarcinoma with tumour-positive lymph nodes (ypN+) or positive surgical margins (R1) following neoadjuvant chemotherapy and resection are at high risk of recurrence. Adjuvant nivolumab is effective in oesophageal/oesophagogastric junction cancer and residual pathological disease following chemoradiation and surgery. Immune checkpoint inhibition has shown efficacy in advanced gastro-oesophageal cancer.

Introduction: Chemotherapy continues to be the standard treatment for patients noneligible for targeted or immune-based therapies; nevertheless, treatment resistance remains a major clinical challenge. We previously found that expression levels of DSTYK, a poorly explored dual serine/threonine and tyrosine kinase frequently amplified in cancer, identified patients with lung cancer exhibiting poor response to immune checkpoint inhibitors, and found that its inhibition sensitizes to immunotherapy. Seeking to explore the potential of DSTYK targeting in additional indications, we investigated the functional relevance and actionability of DSTYK in lung cancer chemoresistance.

Advancements in immunotherapy in the perioperative setting have revolutionised the treatment of resectable nonsmall cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Here we present the methodology and results of the clinical trial CheckMate 816 demonstrating the benefit of neoadjuvant therapy with nivolumab plus chemotherapy compared with chemotherapy alone. Furthermore, this article discusses the implications for future practice in resectable NSCLC and the need for future research.
