Myriam Chalabi, MD, Netherlands Cancer Institute, Amsterdam, Netherlands, discusses the NICHE-2 trial (NCT03026140) of ipilimumab and nivolumab prior to surgery in patients with locally advanced MMR-deficient (dMMR) colon cancer. A 100% 3-year disease-free survival (DFS) rate was observed with no recurrences. Circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) monitoring showed significant ctDNA clearance pre-surgery, particularly in patients with a pathologic complete response. This interview took place at the European Society for Medical Oncology (ESMO) 2024 Congress in Barcelona, Spain.
