      Background:
      AntiPD1/antiPDL1-based immunotherapy has changed dramatically the prognosis of LC p with a substantial improvement of overall survival (OS) and even presenting long lasting responses in a subset of p. Several factors have been associated with the likelihood of better survival, which include the smoking exposure and the presence of KRAS-mut according to data from randomized clinical trials that compared chemotherapy to these immunotherapeutic agents.

      Method:
      By reviewing the clinical records of all stage IV LC p treated with antiPD1/antiPDL1 agents, we identified p with KRAS-mut and evaluated their clinical outocomes.

      Result:
      129 p with advanced NSCLC were treated with nivolumab, pembrolizumab or atezolizumab (65.1%, 17.1% and 17.8 %, respectively) from November 2013 to April 2017. 14 p were identified as adenocarcinomas with KRAS-mut (20.3%) of all non-squamous NSCLC (60p), once squamous cell carcinoma (39 p), p with Kras status unknown (15p), other reasons (6p) were excluded. KRAS-mut subgroup include 28.5% of female, median (m) age of 62.3 years, 92.8% of ever smokers, and PS0-1. The immunotherapy consisted of nivolumab (71.4%) and pembrolizumab and atezolizumab (14.3% each) and was administered as 1[st], 2[nd] and >3[rd] therapy in 7.1,78.6 and 14.3% of p, respectively. 71.4% of p responded to therapy (64.3% partial response) and in 42.8% of p this response lasted >12 months (range 12-32). For this cohort of p m progression-free survival was 7.65 months and OS was 58 months. At the time of analysis 57.1% were still receiving treatment.

      Conclusion:
      Although the number of p is small, KRAS-mut p represent a subgroup of p that seem to substantially benefit from antiPD1/PDL1 agents in terms of both response and survival.

      P2.01-022 - Nintedanib/Docetaxel Efficacy in Advanced Lung Adenocarcinoma Treated with 1L Chemotherapy/2L Immunotherapy in Nintedanib NPU (ID 8639)

      09:00 - 16:00  |  Author(s): Enric Carcereny

      • Abstract
      • Slides

      Background:
      Both antiangiogenic agents (nintedanib and ramucirumab) in combination with docetaxel and monotherapy with anti-PD-1/ PD-L1 immunotherapy have demonstrated efficacy as second-line (2L) treatment of patients with stage IV lung adenocarcinoma. However, selection of optimal candidates and the most appropriate therapeutic sequence is under discussion. Herein, we report on the efficacy of the nintedanib/docetaxel combination following first-line (1L) platinum-based chemotherapy and subsequent immunotherapy in a real-world setting.

      Method:
      From May 2014 to December 2015, 390 patients in 108 Spanish centers enrolled in the nintedanib Named Patient Use (NPU) program. NPU inclusion criteria were advanced lung adenocarcinoma with progressive disease following at least one line of platinum-based doublet chemotherapy. We retrospectively assessed patients that received immunotherapy (available through clinical trials or the nivolumab NPU program) prior to nintedanib/docetaxel. The aim of this analysis was to evaluate the efficacy of the nintedanib/docetaxel combination in this new clinical setting.

      Result:
      Eleven patients met the inclusion criteria for this analysis: 64% were men; median age of 67 years (range, 44–74); ECOG performance status 0-1 in 100% of patients; median number of treatment lines before inclusion in the nintedanib NPU program was 2 (range, 2-3); PD-L1 expression was positive (unknown cut-off) in 6 patients and was not determined in 5 patients. Median progression-free survival (PFS) of first-line platinum-based chemotherapy was 3.3 months (range 1.4-9.4): 9 patients (82%) had progressed <6 months since start of first-line treatment and 4 patients (36%) had progressed <3 months. Second-line immunotherapy was pembrolizumab (36.5%), atezolizumab (36.5%) and nivolumab (27%). Median PFS of second-line immunotherapy was 2.3 months (range, 0.7-11). The overall response rate (ORR) to second-line immunotherapy was 18% with a disease-control rate (DCR) of 45%. The median number of treatment cycles of nintedanib/docetaxel was 4.5 (range, 2-22). Median PFS of nintedanib/docetaxel post first-line chemotherapy and second-line immunotherapy was 3.2 months (range, 1.4-14.6). Best response was partial response in 4 patients (36%), stable disease in 5 patients (46%), and progressive disease in 2 patients (18%), for an ORR of 36% and a DCR of 82%.

      Conclusion:
      Our experience in the Spanish nintedanib NPU program in patients with adenocarcinoma NSCLC pretreated with platinum-based doublet chemotherapy and immunotherapy suggests an encouraging ORR and DCR of nintedanib/docetaxel as compared with clinical trial results. These results reinforce the importance of an optimal therapeutic sequence for managing advanced lung adenocarcinoma: 1) Nintedanib/docetaxel should be the recommended second-line treatment in early progressors and 2) Possible chemosensitization effect by immunotherapy.

      P2.07-041 - Immuno-Related Cutaneous Adverse Events (IRcutAEs) in Patients (P) with Advanced NSCLC: A Single-Institution Prospective Study (ID 9828)

      09:30 - 16:00  |  Presenting Author(s): Enric Carcereny

      • Abstract
      • Slides

      Background:
      Despite the impressive benefits of the immune checkpoint blockade in NSCLC, its use can be hampered by the occurrence of serious adverse events. IRcutAEs are underestimated and poorly described according to data from the clinical trials.

      Method:
      Before starting immunotherapy, all NSCLC p were prospectively referred to the Dermatology Department. Periodic monitoring visits were also scheduled for each p, in order to describe the IRcutAEs and their treatments. The study included data from all consecutive NSCLC p treated with immunotherapy in our institution.

      Result:
      Since May 2016, 50 p were recruited for the present study. According to clinical characteristics; 18 p had squamous histology, 43 p received treatment as second line or further, and 36 p were treated with nivolumab. During the follow-up period, 15 p (30%) developed IRcutAEs. Lichenoid reactions were the most common AE (9 p, 60%), but some specific conditions were also observed, such as a cutaneous lupus (1 p, 6.6%) or an eruptive pseudoangiomatosis (1 p, 6.6%).

      Conclusion:
      IRcutAEs are common during antiPD1-PDL1 therapy. By offering a dermatological follow-up, the diagnosis and management of this type of toxicity can be provided to NSCLC p initiating immunotherapy.
