Eliminating cancer with nivolumab and the chemotherapy regimen AVD – NCI

National Cancer Institute (NCI) shared a post on LinkedIn:

“In a large clinical trial, treatment with nivolumab (Opdivo) and the chemotherapy regimen AVD was better at eliminating cancer and keeping it at bay than the current standard initial treatment for the disease, AVD and brentuximab (Adcetris). The nivolumab combination also had fewer side effects.
