    Background:
    Patients (pts) with oligometastatic NSCLC may benefit from LAT (e.g., surgery, stereotactic radiation (SRT)). It is unclear if systemic therapy can provide additional benefit after LAT. We are running a Phase II study to evaluate the efficacy of pembrolizumab after LAT, hypothesizing that immunotherapy will be effective in the setting of a minimal disease burden.
    
    Method:
    Eligibility stipulates oligometastatic NSCLC (up to 4 sites) with completion of LAT to all known sites of disease. Within 4-12 weeks of completing LAT, pts begin pembrolizumab 200 mg every 21 days for 6 mos, with a provision to continue for a full year in the absence of progression or toxicity. Progression free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) are measured from the start of LAT. A sample size of 42 pts provides 80% power for a test at 5% 1-sided type I error to increase PFS to >=10 mos compared to a historical control PFS of 6.6 mo.
    
    Result:
    Since January 2015, 39 pts have been enrolled. The median age is 64 years; 54% are male; 90% Caucasian. Current and former smokers comprise 90% of the cohort, with a median of 32 pack yrs. Most common metastatic sites are lung (15 pts), brain (13), and bone (8). LAT has included surgery (24 pts), SRT (23), and concurrent chemoradiotherapy (17). Attributable adverse events (AEs) have been mostly mild and self-limited. There has been one episode of Grade 3 pneumonitis and one episode of Grade 3 adrenal insufficiency. Median follow-up from start of LAT is 16 mos. To date, 11 pts have had progression or death. The median PFS has not yet been reached. The PFS rates (+ SE) at 6, 12 and 18 mos are 92%+5%, 64%+9% and 64%+9%, with 16 and 5 pts at risk beyond 12 and 24 mos, respectively. To date, 8 pts (21%) have died. The median OS has not yet been reached. The OS rates (+ SE) at 6, 12 and 18 mos are 100%, 90%+6% and 75%+9%, with 22 and 5 pts at risk beyond 12 and 24 mos, respectively.
    
    Conclusion:
    Use of pembrolizumab after LAT for oligometastatic NSCLC is feasible and well tolerated. In a preliminary analysis, PFS appears favorable. Continued follow-up is necessary to confirm these findings. It is expected that accrual will be complete as of September 2017. Updated survival estimates will be presented.
