Anirban Maitra: Amazing combo ICI results but an unfair comparator arm

Anirban Maitra, Professor of Pathology and Translational Molecular Pathology at UT MD Anderson Cancer Center, shared a paper by Thierry Andre et al. on X:

“Amazing combo ICI results but an unfair comparator arm. The whole point I run IHCs for MMR proteins in every single newly diagnosed colorectal cancer biopsy is to avoid the comparator arm here. I don’t get it. But I am just the GI pathologist here.”
