Abstract
In a recent Lancet Oncology article, Yau et al. report the CheckMate 459 trial results. This is the first phase III trial comparing the single-agent anti-programmed death protein 1 (PD-1) therapy nivolumab to the tyrosine kinase inhibitor sorafenib for treatment-naive patients with advanced hepatocellular carcinoma.
