Abstract:
PD-L1 immunohistochemistry (IHC) has been established as companion or complementary diagnostic assays, each having been developed as a predictive biomarker for specific anti-PD-1/PD-L1 immunotherapies.[1] The Blueprint phase 1 was conducted as a feasibility study to assess the staining (analytical) comparability of four PD-L1 IHC assays (22C3, 28-8, SP142, and SP263) that were developed for their respective immune checkpoint inhibitor therapies.[2] Without correlation with treatment outcome, the study also assessed the putative diagnostic performance of these assays through comparisons of PD-L1 status classification above and below selected expression cutoffs associated with the clinical use of various assays. Serial sections from paraffin blocks of 39 resected non-small cell lung cancers (NSCLC) were stained using assays that were used in the clinical trials, and three experts in interpreting the four respective assays independently assessed the percentages of tumor and immune cells staining positive at any intensity. The results demonstrated that three PD-L1 assays (28-8, 22C3, SP263) showed comparable analytical performance for assessment of PD-L1 expression on tumor cells, while the SP-142 PD-L1 assay appeared to stain less tumor cells compared to the other assays.[2] In contrast, all assays stained tumor infiltrating immune cells, but with poor concordance between assays. The phase 1 study had several limitations: (1) samples were obtained from a commercial source and did not necessarily reflect the real-world samples tested clinically, and (2) the number of pathologists involved in the scoring was small. In addition, a fifth PD-L1 assay (73-10) has since been developed as a potential biomarker for avelumab (EMD Serono/Merck KGaA/Pfizer). The goals of Blueprint phase 2 are: (1) to validate the assay comparability results obtained in Blueprint phase 1 study using real world clinical lung cancer samples and all five clinically used PD-L1 assays (28-8, 22C3, SP142, SP263, and 73-10), (2) to assess the comparability and heterogeneity of PD-L1 assay results in surgical tumor resection, core needle and FNA samples prepared from same tumor, and (3) to assess the concordance of PD-L1 scoring by pathologists from around the world using standard light microscopy vs. digital images accessed by a web-based system. In blueprint phase 2A, 18 participating pathologists, with respective institutional research ethics board approval, contributed unstained serial sections from altogether 81 lung cancer cases that came through routine clinical practice. These included 40 adenocarcinomas, 25 squamous cell carcinomas, 5 poorly differentiated non-small cell carcinoma and 11 small cell carcinomas. The cases included resected tumor (n=20), core/bronchial biopsies (n=20), tumor positive lymph node biopsy/resection (n=20) and cytology cell block (n=21) samples. In blueprint phase 2B, 9 pathologists prepared from 30 freshly resected NSCLC specimens, paraffin blocks of matched resection, core needle and fine needle aspiration samples. Each slide set of 81 cases from phase 2A were stained with the FDA-cleared (28-8, 22C3, SP142) or clinical trial (SP263 and 73-10) PD-L1 assays, in a CLIA-approved immunohistochemistry laboratory. The slides were scored by 24 experienced pulmonary pathologists (IASLC Pathology committee Blueprint phase 2 members),[4] all having received group training on scoring the PD-L1 IHC on tumor and immune cells. PD-L1 stained tumor cells were scored as continuous number (0% to 100%), and placed into 1 of 7 categories (<1%, 1-4%, 5-9%, 10-24%, 25-49%, 50-79%, 80-100%). These categories represent cut-offs that have been used in various immune checkpoint inhibitor trials. All assays were also scored for immune cell PD-L1 staining based on the scoring system developed for the SP-142 assay. As only one set of glass slides is available for each assay, each pathologist was randomly assigned to conduct the scoring using microscope (2 glass assays) or by web-based digital images (3 digital assays). The inter-assay concordance of PD-L1 staining on tumor cells and tumor infiltrating immune cells will be assessed using the mean scores from all pathologists. The large sample size scores should provide more reliable data on their analytical comparability. Inter-pathologist concordance results should provide evidence on reliability of scoring with different cut-points. Importantly, the above concordance results across different sample types should also provide insights on potential variability and feasibility in PD-L1 scoring across different sample types, especially cytology samples. This may then allow for a broad implementation strategy on PD-L1 testing in clinical practice. The results of phase 2A will be presented at the meeting.IASLC Pathology Committee Blueprint phase 2 members: Mary-Beth Beasley, Alain Borczuk, Johan Botling, Lukas Bubendorf, Gang Chen, Lucian Chirieac, Teh-Ying Chou, Jin-Haeng Chung, Sanja Dacic, Fred R.
