In study 309/KEYNOTE-775, L+P showed significant OS and PFS benefits and improved ORR vs TPC in pts with aEC following prior platinum-based therapy. There were no substantial differences in health-related quality of life (HRQoL) scores between the 2 arms at 12 weeks. We describe a post-hoc analysis of time to first (TTfD) and time to definitive (TTdD) deterioration (by 10 points) of patient-reported outcomes (PROs).
Pts were randomized 1:1 to lenvatinib 20 mg QD PO + pembrolizumab 200 mg IV Q3W (n=411) or TPC (n=416; doxorubicin 60 mg/m2 IV Q3W or paclitaxel 80 mg/m2 IV QW, 3 wks on/1 wk off). PROs were assessed on day 1 of each treatment cycle (L+P and doxorubicin, 21 days; paclitaxel, 28 days) until the end of treatment visit using EORTC QLQ-C30, QLQ-EN24, and EQ-5D-5L in pts with ≥1 study dose and ≥1 postbaseline PRO. TTfD for the EORTC QLQ-C30 and QLQ-EN24 was defined as the time from treatment start to first onset of a ≥10-point increase (symptom score) or decrease (functional/global health status [GHS] score) from baseline. TTdD was defined as the time from treatment start to first onset of an increase (symptom score) or decrease (functional/GHS score) of ≥10 points from baseline without subsequent recovery.
The mean observation period for PRO measures was longer for L+P vs TPC (eg, EORTC QLQ-C30: L+P, 9.3 mos; TPC, 4.3 mos). TTfD was generally similar between the 2 arms for most functional scales. Among the symptom scales, TTfD for dyspnea, poor body image, tingling/numbness, and hair loss favored L+P over TPC, whereas pain, appetite loss, diarrhea, and muscular pain favored TPC. TTdD favored L+P for most of the assessed scales.
Although TTfD did not demonstrably favor either arm, L+P was favored over TPC for almost all scales in the TTdD analysis. This may be due to longer follow-up and/or overall greater efficacy with L+P vs TPC. These data along with previously reported positive efficacy, safety, and overall HRQoL scores from Study 309/KEYNOTE-775 further support L+P for use in pts with aEC following prior platinum-based therapy.
