Abstract 2376
Background
Nivolumab is a standard option for second-line treatment in pts with advanced NSCLC. Real-life data are lacking regarding the efficacy of nivolumab and post-nivolumab treatment.
Methods
This analysis included the first 600 consecutive pts with stage IIIB/IV NSCLC who received ≥1 dose of nivolumab 3mg/kg q2w through the French EAP from 01/2015 for Squamous (Sq) and 06/2015 for Non-Sq NSCLC, until 08/2015.
Results
Median age was 64 yo, there were 409 (68%) men, 521 (87%) smokers, 478 (80%) PS0/1 pts, 230 (38%) Sq and 370 (62%) Non-Sq NSCLC, 130 (22%) pts with brain metastases. Nivolumab was administered as 2nd/3rd/≥4th-line for 26%/33%/41% pts, respectively. Best response was PR/SD/PD for 17%/30%/37% of patients, respectively, with 16% not assessable. Toxicities occurred in 187 (31%) pts, including 10% grade ≥3 events. After a median follow-up of 22.1 (95% CI 21.6-22.6) months, median PFS and OS from the initiation of nivolumab were 2.1 (95%CI 1.9-2.3) and 9.5 (95%CI 8.4-10.8) months, respectively. Post-nivolumab treatment was administered to 262 (44%) pts, and mostly consisted of gemcitabine (19%), docetaxel (18%), paclitaxel (14%), erlotinib (12%), vinorelbine (9%), platin-based doublet (8%), or pemetrexed (8%). Access to post-nivolumab treatment was higher in PS0/1 vs. PS2 pts (48% vs. 23%, p
Conclusions
Efficacy and safety of nivolumab was in line with available data. Post-nivolumab treatment may be delivered in many pts, and impact OS. Data on the whole cohort of 900 pts enrolled in the EAP will be presented.
