ORAL02.02 - Safety and Efficacy of Nivolumab in an Ongoing Trial of a PD-L1+/- Patient Population with Metastatic Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (ID 851)

- Presentation
Background:
Nivolumab (NIVO), a fully human IgG4 programmed death-1 (PD-1), immune checkpoint inhibitor antibody, has demonstrated durable responses and tolerability in heavily pretreated patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). NIVO was recently approved for the treatment of patients with metastatic squamous (SQ) NSCLC with progression on or after platinum-based chemotherapy. Conducted mostly in community-based oncology centers, this ongoing trial explores the safety of NIVO in patients with previously-treated PD-L1[+/-] metastatic SQ or non-squamous (NSQ) NSCLC.
Methods:
Eligible patients are enrolled in 4 subgroups: 1) SQ, performance status (PS) 0–1, ≥2 prior therapies; 2) SQ, PS 0–1, 1 prior therapy; 3) NSQ, PS 0–1, ≥1 prior therapy; and 4) SQ or NSQ, PS 2, ≥1 prior therapy. Patients with both PD-L1[+] and PD-L1[-] tumors are eligible. Patients receive NIVO 3 mg/kg IV (60 minutes) Q2W either until progressive disease (PD)/unacceptable toxicity (Cohort A) or for 1 year with the possibility of retreatment upon disease progression (Cohort B). Primary objective is to estimate incidence of high-grade (CTCAE v4.0 Grade 3–4 and 5), select treatment-related adverse events (STRAEs); exploratory efficacy assessments include ORR, PFS, and OS.
Results:
From 4/16/14 to 12/31/14, 824 patients were treated and have demographic and safety data available; 483 patients remained on study as of 12/31/2014. 395 patients had evaluable radiographic tumor assessments at first assessment (Week 9). Demographics, safety, and tumor response by PD-L1 status are reported. Figure 1
Conclusion:
Safety and tolerability are consistent with prior NIVO experience and no new safety signals have been identified in this trial of SQ/NSQ NSCLC patients. Immune-related toxicities are manageable in a community practice setting using previously-developed safety algorithms. The frequency of STRAEs of interest was similar between patients with PS 0–1 and those with PS 2. Early data from this large, multicenter trial suggests that patients with pretreated advanced NSCLC benefit from NIVO therapy regardless of tumor PD-L1 status, histology type, and PS status.
