Furthermore, first-line therapy with an immune checkpoint inhibitor in combination with chemotherapy recently demonstrated improved outcomes over chemotherapy alone, and these data led to an FDA approval that is ushering in a new immunotherapy-based standard of care in the frontline treatment of newly diagnosed gastric and GEJ cancers.
