thanks So Geoff.

regimens the the start first from the Let of of those Obviously of me we post with year, had and part impact just TKI the in launch half year. in competitive this I-O earlier renal.

coming However, over I-O number has we shares of last shares And renal number say frankly on I-O share actually seen really as is said population, as at today, as take stable was The the in I would to seen share mentioned renal that been what the result monotherapy. class TKI the look XX% and earlier months. our been first-line TKI we've range a label XX% our in that's the I from around in But that's we've months. in relatively our growth competitive XX% XX% to mainly holding last that. of as consistent first-line of over been holding

XX%. one renal in our from, But in share, We that line see line second eligible the lung to second to a first-line keep respect dynamics. With example, I in plus lung to roughly of the that the do as in think at now of pool decline market in in second line is for see there's see date thing as different non-small in cancer mind second result right a the case obviously, cell a role least in cell renal line and that's you cancer. you least is playing first-line while Opdivo And, at decline. And eligibly Yervoy not in also that's setting.

gave just and for XXXX I and growth answer to the respect question. in then to XXXX, XX And I I Opdivo think would -- beyond to back refer Terence's

to XXXX do out But interactions. I under think we now, timing the think still right continue to But beyond XXXX. metastatic play and will and see the we XXXX growth for how as have see Opdivo a respect Opdivo certainly we I and with pressure that we're to to programs as very brand. see into dynamics out going read adjuvant regulatory of much get

John Elicker

JPMorgan. Yes, from sir. Chris Schott will with come That

Chris Schott

Thanks much. Great. very

about talk at picture the in bigger point. Just you just first-line this maybe But a realize XLA Yervoy I coming can't Opdivo back lung, to data question.

as about Opdivo to role induction alone chemo Yervoy by you just the dual strategy. As think followed of I-O compared

lung? want of looking those front-runner you of, At kind agents profiles optimal the other? to what's terms see Just in in the just get of really to really front-line relative profile be -- one one out going versus more, do to for qualitative this is point those the treatment sense there standing of at other is like

to leverage XXXX? we hands Thanks the know a turning looking I year longer sale debt where you moving leverage company at is back as get My of and second deploy much. question expected you can can this think be term talk But Should targets. pieces going over your to balance a profile was we we about your about the the quickly sheet the leverage. capital again? at few et my how been and course on look cetera, just point -- with on there's OTEZLA so

Chris Boerner

take context unmet significant still Chris, as And as then of is question conversation from see lung for the turn the first-line The I about a and cancer much way maybe ESMO, first recall over you can we I'll Charlie we to the second think market question. in frankly with need. very had at it we XXX. your XLA,

majority plus see had going within of a the with I-O conversations on they standard are and since that treated relapse the things. example, certainly into year. ESMO, patients For the few going physicians a to And ESMO with based chemotherapy we

duration need options And those very second, XXX curve they the for patients there's considerable they complete additional I-O XXX, importantly for for who saw overall or First, of survival with safety see an need in important profile cancer. compelling. unmet response rates impressed that of see providing they view the they the chemotherapy. option given dual with and the tail They're from therapy. opportunity don't the a first-line want lung is And is responses need manageable

do data. I-O this require and the amount therapy. about dual XLA chemotherapy. really just the value top line of it is chemotherapy adds we got is a patients Obviously cycles two way does What think The we for case in who limited whether question to

can't on that. so haven't We specifics, gone through the all comment we

remember and Opdivo is, or we PD-LX we what trial for study overall we're an And second very the have demonstrating regardless was a of can that benefit low say status was histology. dose a of that this pleased However, Yervoy. combination survival

of gives opportunity and do to the organization opportunity with commercial that to and XLA do we can so. a believe much strength capitalize look And that lung cancer us the coupled and one our in first-line XXX we we real forward very

And so with Charlie. over to that, maybe I'll turn it

Charlie Bancroft

Thanks for question. Chris Yeah. your

As our we've deleveraging let stage balance sheet flow included we've in our just through dynamics I talked deal flexibility early in analysis. really and my the to about is me walk talked already deal during you important, about back overall in and cash mention continued But math. of getting as kind is comments the although,

We've has billion have Celgene talked We know. that. of billion $XX out you as X. outstanding in in about already taken loans debt $XX
