      Background

      Immune checkpoint inhibitors have shown efficacy in patients with NSCLC as monotherapy and in combination with chemotherapy. Tislelizumab is a humanized IgG4 monoclonal antibody to PD‑1 specifically engineered to minimize FcϒR binding on macrophages, possibly minimizing negative interactions with other immune cells. In a phase 1 study, tislelizumab was generally well tolerated and showed antitumor activity; 200mg IV Q3W was established as the recommended dose.

      This multi-arm phase 2 study, consisting of safety run-in and dose-extension phases, assessed tislelizumab in combination with platinum-based chemotherapy (by tumor histology) as a potential first-line treatment for Chinese patients with lung cancer. All patients received tislelizumab at 200mg Q3W in combination with 4–6 cycles of platinum-doublet until disease progression. Nonsquamous (nsq) NSCLC patients received pemetrexed + platinum Q3W for 4 cycles followed by pemetrexed maintenance, while squamous (sq) NSCLC patients received paclitaxel + platinum (A) or gemcitabine + platinum (B) Q3W, and small-cell lung cancer (SCLC) patients received etoposide + platinum Q3W. Tumor response (RECIST v1.1) and safety/tolerability were evaluated.

      As of 21 Feb 2018, 48 patients (median age, 62 years [range: 36–75], 71% male, 71% current/former smokers) received tislelizumab treatment (median, 3 cycles [range: 1–7]); 44 patients remain on the study. Across the four cohorts, confirmed and unconfirmed partial responses were observed in 13 and 9 patients, respectively (Table). The most frequent AEs were chemotherapy-related hematologic toxicities. The most commonly reported grade ≥3 treatment-related AEs were neutropenia (20.8%) and anemia (12.5%); the most common grade 3 immune-related AEs were pyrexia (6.3%) and rash (6.3%). One sq‑NSCLC patient experienced a fatal myocarditis/myositis following one cycle of paclitaxel/cisplatin; all other treatment-related AEs were managed/resolved by study-drug interruption (n=15) or discontinuation (n=4) and appropriate treatment.

      Tislelizumab, in combination with platinum doublets, demonstrated preliminary antitumor activity and was generally well tolerated in patients with advanced lung cancer.
