      Background

      Clinical trials have established the role of immune checkpoint inhibitors for metastatic NSCLC treatment, but real-world data are limited. We describe the first report of a prospective study on real-world time on treatment (rwTOT) for first-line (1L) anti-PD-1 monotherapy in metastatic NSCLC in a 2.3 million member public health provider in Israel.

      Method

      Newly diagnosed stage IV NSCLC patients who initiated 1L anti-PD-1 therapy in 2017 were identified from the national cancer registry. rwTOT was defined as the length of time between first and last administration date of anti-PD-1 therapy. Patients were considered discontinued if they had a record of next line of therapy, or death, or whose last activity date was ≥120 days from the last administration date; others were censored. The Kaplan-Meier (KM) median and restricted mean (rMean) rwToT were estimated. Jun 2018 data cutoff was utilized to allow minimum 6 months follow-up.

      Result

      A total of 63 patients initiated 1L anti-PD-1 monotherapy; of these, 59 were PD-L1 TPS≥50%, one was TPS<50% and 3 unknown. This cohort comprised of 97% pembrolizumab monotherapy, 65% males, median age=59 yrs, 76% ever smokers, 71% adenocarcinomas, 11% brain metastases, and 62%/14%/24% with 0-1/2-4/unknown ECOG status. The median rwToT was 4.6 (95% CI 2.8-12.8) mo and estimated rMean at 24 months using parametric extrapolation was 10.9 mo (4.3-16.8). Patients with ECOG 0-1, n=39, had a median rwTOT of 10.6 mo (1.9-19.2).

      Conclusion

      The results of this unselected real-world cohort of metastatic NSCLC patients treated with 1L anti PD-1 monotherapy show that rwTOT rates compare favorably with published data from clinical trials and other real-world studies.
