Implications of pneumonitis after chemoradiation and durvalumab for locally advanced non-small cell lung cancer

Abstract

Among LA-NSCLC patients treated with CRT followed by consolidation durvalumab, more than 25% developed symptomatic pneumonitis. In this small case series, pneumonitis did not appear to negatively impact survival, and durvalumab re-challenge appeared feasible after pneumonitis treatment with steroids.
