Abstract 792
Background
PD-1 antibodies have brought promising benefit to advanced hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) patients (pts) who had been treated with sorafenib etc. Camrelizumab (SHR-1210), a fully humanized anti–PD-1 IgG4 monoclonal antibody, was well tolerated with promising antitumor activity observed in phase 1 trials.
Methods
In this phase 2 trial, HCC pts who progressed on or were intolerant to at least one line of prior systemic therapies were randomized (1:1) to camrelizumab 3 mg/kg iv.gtt for q2w or q3w group. The primary endpoints were confirmed objective response rate (ORR) by blinded independent central review according to RECIST v1.1 criteria and 6-month (6-mo) overall survival (OS) rate.
Results
From 15 Nov. 2016 to 16 Nov. 2017, 220 pts at Chinese national-wide 13 sites were randomized and 217 were treated (109 in q2w and 108 in q3w group). As of 16 May 2018, the ORR was 13.8% (95% CI 9.5–19.1) and 6-mo OS rate was 74.7% (95% CI 68.3–79.9). Median time to response was 2.0 mo (range 1.7–6.2). Of the 30 responses, 22 were ongoing, and median duration of response was not reached (range 2.5–15.4+ mo). Disease control rate was 44.7% (95% CI 38.0–51.6). Median time to progression was 2.6 mo (95% CI 2.0–3.3) and median progression-free survival was 2.1 mo (95% CI 2.0–3.2). Median OS was not reached. The most common treatment related adverse events (TRAEs, ≥20.0%) were reactive cutaneous capillary endothelial proliferation (RCEP, 66.8%, all in grade ≤2), increased AST (24.4%), increased ALT (23.0%) and proteinuria (23.0%). Exploratory analysis indicated that pts experienced RCEP had significantly higher ORR (18.9% vs. 5.8%, P=0.0022). Pts in the q2w or q3w group had comparable efficacy and TRAEs incidence (Table). The prior sorafenib-exposed only pts seemed to have superior outcomes (Table).

* Part of subjects in this subpopulation received other systemic therapy beyond sorafenib before enrollment; # In this subpopulation, sorafenib was the only systemic therapy received before enrollment. |
Conclusions
Camrelizumab showed high ORR, durable response and acceptable toxicities in Chinese pretreated advanced HCC pts.
