Pathologic Complete Response Predicts Long‐Term Survival Following Neoadjuvant Induction Chemotherapy and Chemo‐Radiotherapy in Stage‐ <scp>III</scp> Non‐Small Cell Lung Cancer

Induction chemotherapy followed by chemo-radiotherapy results in high PCR rates. In this investigation, PCR is followed by high event-free and overall survival rates. These data warrant further investigation of chemo-radiotherapy as a significant component of neoadjuvant treatment regimens in trials combined with immunotherapy. This strategy may increase the PCR rates, particularly for patients with more advanced, potentially resectable stage III NSCLC.
