Brief Summary: The objective of this study is to assess the efficacy of the combination of Platinum (carboplatin or cisplatin), Pemetrexed, Atezolizumab+/- Bevacizumab if eligible, in stage IIIB/IV non-squamous non-small cell lung cancer patients with progression-enhancing mutations following targeted therapies.
Detailed Description: In patients with an EGFR mutation, several phase III studies comparing EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) with chemotherapy have shown a benefit of TKI over chemotherapy, with no demonstrated benefit on overall survival. After a first line of treatment with a TKI, most patients progress and are eligible according to the mechanism of progression to a TKI of 3rd generation in case of T790M resistance or chemotherapy. In patients with ALK translocation, crizotinib has been shown to be beneficial in first line compared to a platinum doublet.Despite these major advances, most patients are progressing after targeted treatments and chemotherapy and are facing the problem of anti-PD1 / PDL1 treatment.
