Nivolumab, a fully human IgG4 programmed death 1 (PD-1) immune-checkpoint-inhibitor antibody, disrupts PD-1-mediated signaling and may restore antitumor immunity.
In this randomized, open-label, international phase 3 study, we assigned patients with nonsquamous non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) that had progressed during or after platinum-based doublet chemotherapy to receive nivolumab at a dose of 3 mg per kilogram of body weight every 2 weeks or docetaxel at a dose of 75 mg per square meter of body-surface area every 3 weeks. The primary end point was overall survival.
Overall survival was longer with nivolumab than with docetaxel. The median overall survival was 12.2 months (95% confidence interval [CI], 9.7 to 15.0) among 292 patients in the nivolumab group and 9.4 months (95% CI, 8.1 to 10.7) among 290 patients in the docetaxel group (hazard ratio for death, 0.73; 96% CI, 0.59 to 0.89; P=0.002). At 1 year, the overall survival rate was 51% (95% CI, 45 to 56) with nivolumab versus 39% (95% CI, 33 to 45) with docetaxel. With additional follow-up, the overall survival rate at 18 months was 39% (95% CI, 34 to 45) with nivolumab versus 23% (95% CI, 19 to 28) with docetaxel. The response rate was 19% with nivolumab versus 12% with docetaxel (P=0.02). Although progression-free survival did not favor nivolumab over docetaxel (median, 2.3 months and 4.2 months, respectively), the rate of progression-free survival at 1 year was higher with nivolumab than with docetaxel (19% and 8%, respectively). Nivolumab was associated with even greater efficacy than docetaxel across all end points in subgroups defined according to prespecified levels of tumor-membrane expression (≥1%, ≥5%, and ≥10%) of the PD-1 ligand. Treatment-related adverse events of grade 3 or 4 were reported in 10% of the patients in the nivolumab group, as compared with 54% of those in the docetaxel group.
Among patients with advanced nonsquamous NSCLC that had progressed during or after platinum-based chemotherapy, overall survival was longer with nivolumab than with docetaxel. (Funded by Bristol-Myers Squibb; CheckMate 057 ClinicalTrials.gov number, NCT01673867.).
纳武单抗是一种全人源IgG4程序性死亡1(PD-1)免疫检查点抑制剂抗体,可破坏PD-1介导的信号传导,并可能恢复抗肿瘤免疫力。
在这项随机、开放标签的国际3期研究中,我们将在铂类双联化疗期间或之后病情进展的非鳞状非小细胞肺癌(NSCLC)患者分配至接受每2周一次3毫克/千克体重的纳武单抗治疗组,或每3周一次75毫克/平方米体表面积的多西他赛治疗组。主要终点为总生存期。
纳武单抗组的总生存期长于多西他赛组。纳武单抗组292例患者的中位总生存期为12.2个月(95%置信区间[CI],9.7至15.0),多西他赛组290例患者的中位总生存期为9.4个月(95%CI,8.1至10.7)(死亡风险比,0.73;96%CI,0.59至0.89;P=0.002)。1年时,纳武单抗组的总生存率为51%(95%CI,45至56),多西他赛组为39%(95%CI,33至45)。经过额外随访,18个月时纳武单抗组的总生存率为39%(95%CI,34至45),多西他赛组为23%(95%CI,19至28)。纳武单抗组的缓解率为19%,多西他赛组为12%(P=0.02)。虽然无进展生存期纳武单抗组并不优于多西他赛组(中位分别为2.3个月和4.2个月),但1年时纳武单抗组的无进展生存率高于多西他赛组(分别为19%和8%)。在根据PD-1配体预先设定的肿瘤膜表达水平(≥1%、≥5%和≥10%)定义的亚组中,纳武单抗在所有终点的疗效均优于多西他赛。纳武单抗组10%的患者报告了3级或4级治疗相关不良事件,多西他赛组为54%。
在铂类化疗期间或之后病情进展的晚期非鳞状NSCLC患者中,纳武单抗组的总生存期长于多西他赛组。(由百时美施贵宝公司资助;CheckMate 057临床试验注册号,NCT0*********)
