Neoadjuvant PD‑1/LAG‑3 Bispecific (tobemstomig) Matches Efficacy but Improves Safety Versus Nivolumab‑Ipilimumab in Resectable Stage III Melanoma: Insights from Morpheus‑Melanoma

The randomized phase 1b/2 Morpheus‑Melanoma trial found that tobemstomig (anti‑PD‑1/anti‑LAG‑3 bispecific) produced comparable pathological response rates to nivolumab plus ipilimumab with a substantially improved safety profile in resectable stage III melanoma.
