1307P - Real-world evaluation of first-line (1L) pembrolizumab (pembro) monotherapy for PD-L1–positive (TPS ≥50%), advanced NSCLC in Japan
- Yasushi Goto (Tokyo, Japan)
Abstract
Background
Pembro was approved and fully reimbursed in Japan in February 2017 for 1L monotherapy of unresectable advanced/metastatic NSCLC with PD-L1 tumor proportion score (TPS) ≥50%. In KEYNOTE-024 (KN024), median pembro treatment duration was 7.9 months (mo), and Kaplan-Meier (KM) 24-month overall survival (OS) was 51.5% for metastatic NSCLC with TPS ≥50%. Our aim was to describe real-world outcomes of 1L pembro monotherapy for advanced NSCLC in Japan, including the subgroup of patients (pts) ≥75 years old, who are under-represented in clinical trials.
Methods
Conducted at 23 sites, this retrospective chart review study included pts ≥20 years old initiating 1L systemic anticancer therapy from 1 July 2017 – 20 December 2018 for unresectable stage IIIB/C–IV NSCLC without actionable mutations (no
Results
441 pts (78% men) were included, with median pt follow-up time of 13.5 mo (range <0.1–26.9) from start of 1L pembro. Median age was 70 years (range 30–89). Most pts (89%) were current or former smokers; 64% had nonsquamous NSCLC; 92 (21%) had brain metastasis. Median OS was not reached (NR). For 240 (54%) pts with PS 0–1, median OS was NR and median rwPFS was 10.0 mo (95% CI 7.2–14.0). Overall, 161 pts (37%) received second-line therapy (76% platinum doublet); 74 (17%) received third-line (68% non-platinum cytotoxic agent).

Conclusions
Real-world clinical outcomes with 1L pembro monotherapy for high PD-L1–expressing (TPS ≥50%), advanced NSCLC were consistent with KN024 clinical trial data, although the rwToT estimate was somewhat shorter than KN024 treatment duration.
