After very promising data in phase II studies, the difference in overall survival (OS) between the tremelimumab and standard of care control (temozolomide or dacarbazine) arms was not statistically significant (11.8 versus 10.7 months). Despite this, at that point in time, an OS of 11.8 months for advanced melanoma patients seemed exceptional, given the historical median OS of 6-8 months for these patients (1).},
