Amol Akhade: It is time to take care of “missing third arm of the trial” syndrome
Amol Akhade shared his remarks on a study by Helen J Ross et al on X:
“Neoadjuvant Atezo before CTRT followed by Adjuvant Atezolizumab for one year. Small phase 2 study. 62 patients.
Authors feel that further studies to determine the role on neo adjuvant atezo before CTRT should be done I hope after the recent discussion for perioperative IO, FDA won’t approve any new trial design unless there is direct comparison between Adjuvant IO post CTRT vs neoadjuvant IO before CTRT.
It is time to take care of “missing third arm of the trial” syndrome.”
