Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
1. To determine if expansion of T cell populations in blood predicts response to anti-PD1 therapy 2. To understand the immune response in lung tunours and understand if these parameters correlate with subsequent response to anti-PD1 therapy.Timepoint: 2 weeks after first dose After 3 cycles

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
To create an inter-disciplinary team of clinicans and researchers with complementary and synergistic expertise. Establish the joint EVC-TMC program for research excellence in immuno-ocology in India.Timepoint: 5 years
