The disclosure provides a method of treating a human subject afflicted with lung cancer (e.g., non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC)) with a programmed death-1 (PD-1) pathway inhibitor (e.g., an anti-PD-1 antibody) and a concurrent chemoradiotherapy (CCRT, e.g., a platinum doublet chemotherapy (PDCT) and a radiation therapy) followed by a combination of a PD-1 pathway inhibitor (e.g., an anti-PD-1 antibody) and a lymphocyte activation gene-3 (LAG-3) antagonist (e.g., an anti-LAG-3 antibody). In some aspects, the method comprises a recovery period that begins upon completion of the treatment with the PD-1 pathway inhibitor and the CCRT and ends at the start of the treatment with the combination of the PD-1 pathway inhibitor and the LAG-3 antagonist.
