Jeffrey R. Infante, MD director of Drug Development, Sarah Cannon Research Institute, talks about the anti-PD-L1 antibody avelumab in patients with previously treated, recurrent or refractory ovarian cancer.
Infante says avelumab produced positive results in patients during an ovarian cancer study that took place over the course of two months. He says that in some atypical cases during the study, the tumor would appear to progress and then would respond to the treatment.
