Key clinical point: Patients with advanced nonsquamous non–small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) receiving first-line immune checkpoint inhibitors plus chemotherapy (ICI-chemo) have better overall survival (OS) than those receiving first-line bevacizumab plus chemotherapy (bev-chemo).

Major finding: Patients who received first-line ICI-chemo had a 21% longer OS than those who received bev-chemo (hazard ratio 0.79; 95% CI 0.66-0.94). There were no differences between the 2 groups in progression-free survival, objective response rate, and grade ≥3 treatment-related adverse events.

Study details: The data come from a network meta-analysis of 15 randomized controlled trials including 6561 patients with advanced nonsquamous NSCLC.

Disclosures: No funding information was available. The authors declared no conflicts of interest.
