SWOG S1400F (NCT03373760): A phase II study of durvalumab plus tremelimumab for previously treated patients with acquired resistance to PD-1 checkpoint inhibitor therapy and stage IV squamous cell lung cancer (Lung-MAP Sub-study).

Abstract No : 9623

Abstract Type : Poster Session

Indication : Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer

Intervention : Durvalumab plus tremelimumab

Company : U.S. National Institutes of Health, Lung-MAP trial supported in part by NIH/NCI grants CA180888, CA180819, CA180820, CA180821, CA180863, CA180868, and by AbbVie Inc., Amgen, AstraZeneca, Bristol-Myers Squibb Company, Genentech and Pfizer through the Foundation for the National Institutes of Health, in partnership with Friends of Cancer Research.

Technology : Monoclonal antibody

Results:

30 eligible patients were accrued to the acquired resistance cohort. Median age was 68 years, 60% of patients were male, 33% PS 0 and had received a median of 2 prior lines of therapy (maximum 4). Best response to prior anti-PD-(L)1 therapy was CR/PR/SD in 3/7/20 patients, with a median duration of anti-PD-(L)1 therapy of 8.6 months (5.2-30.4). No objective responses were seen with D+T; 47% had SD as best response. Median PFS was 2.0 months (95% CI 1.6-2.9) and survival 7.5 months (95% CI 5.3-8.7). Among the 14 patients with SD as best response, the median PFS calculated from first disease assessment is 2.8 months (95% CI: 1.4-3.9). Grade$3 adverse events at least possibly related to protocol therapy were seen in 10/30 patients. These include 1 treatment-related death due to pneumonitis and 1 death not otherwise specified. Other adverse events include grade 3 confusion (1), dehydration (2), diarrhea (3), encephalopathy (1), weakness (1), hyperglycemia (1), hypoxia (1), lymphopenia (1), nausea, (1), neutropenia (1), thrombocytopenia (1), rash (1), vomiting (1), grade 4 dyspnea (1), leucopenia (1) and lymphopenia (1)

Conclusion:

D+T did not demonstrate activity in patients with acquired resistance to PD-1 checkpoint inhibitors and pretreated advanced squamous lung carcinoma.

Commentary:

Durvalumab plus tremelimumab did not demonstrate activity in patients with acquired resistance to PD-1 checkpoint inhibitors and pretreated advanced squamous lung carcinoma.
