      Background

      Malignant mesothelioma is an unusual tumor associated with poor prognosis. Currently, there are no effective treatments after the progression to the first line. The aim of this study is to analyze the experience in 7 spanish centers.

      Method

      We conducted a retrospective analysis including patients with malignant mesotheliomas of 7 centers in Spain. Demographic, clinical and pathological variables, tumor response, progression date and death were collected.

      Result

      We enrolled 63 patients with diagnosis of malignant mesothelioma. The average age was 70 years. 73,4% were men and 26,4% women. The most frequent location was the pleural (78,1%) and biopsy was the main diagnostic method (92,2%). 76,6% were diagnosed as epitheloid mesothelioma subtype, whereas sarcomatoid and mixed subtypes were less frequent. Tumor in stage IV was presented at diagnosis in 75 % cases. The most frequent first treatment was chemotherapy, 95,2% of patients received treatment based on platinum doublet with pemetrexed, followed by pemetrexed maintenance. Best response was partial response in 20,6% , stable disease in 41,3% , complete response in 22,2% and progressive disease in 15,9%.The median progression free survival of the sample was 8,8 months, and the median overall survival was 12 months.

      Conclusion

      The demographics and baseline characteristics as well as the survival data obtained in our sample are consistent with the previously reported.

      P2.01-98 - Neutrophil-Platelet Score (NPS), a Predictive Systemic Inflammation Score for Pembrolizumab in First Line of Advanced NSCLC Patients (ID 2711)

      10:15 - 18:15  |  Author(s): Irene Nalda Ariza

      • Abstract

      Background

      Systemic inflammation response can be characterized by changes of peripheral blood cell amounts. Several blood cell-based scores have been found to have prognostic value in some tumors treated with ICI. Neutrophil-platelet score (NPS) is a systemic inflammation-based score characterizing 3 prognostic groups: good (0), neutrophils <=7500 and platelets <=400000; intermediate (1), neutrophils >7500 or platelets >400000; poor (2), neutrophils >7500 and platelets >400000). It has never been evaluated as prognostic biomarker in first line treatment setting of non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients treated with pembrolizumab.

      Method

      This is a multicenter retrospective study with the aim to evaluate prognostic value of NPS in patients with advanced NSCLC and high PD-L1 expression treated with pembrolizumab monotherapy between September 2016 and March 2019. Clinical data were contributed by 12 medical centers in Spain. Primary endpoint was association of NPS with overall survival (OS).

      Result

      121 patients were evaluated. Median age was 68 years (38-88). 90 (74,4%) were male and 90 (74,4%) had PS1. Predominant histologies were adenocarcinoma (68,6%) and squamous-cell carcinoma (23,1%). Median number of cycles was 7 (1-33). Median follow-up: 6,5 months. Most were current or former smokers (95,9%). Only 1 patient had driver mutation (ALK rearrangement). 66,9% had 2 or more metastatic locations, 18,2% had central nervous system (CNS) disease, 17,4% liver metastasis, and 41,3% bone metastasis. Response rate was 40,4% according to RECISTv1.1 criteria. 11% had hyperprogression and 7,2% pseudoprogression. Estimated 12-month-OS was 62% (95%CI: 49.1%-72.5%) and estimated 12-month-PFS was 44.2% (95%CI: 31.1%-56.5%). Higher NPS was associated with poor PFS: NPS1 HR 1,23 (95%CI, 0,61-2,46), p=0,56; NPS2 HR 3,56 (95%CI, 1,61-7,86), p=0,002. NPS was not associated with disease control rate (DCR) or overall response rate (ORR).

      Conclusion

      NPS predicted OS and PFS in advanced NSCLC patients with high PD-L1 expression treated with first line pembrolizumab monotherapy. NPS2 subgroup has an especially bad prognosis in spite of high PD-L1 expression and frontline treatment with pembrolizumab. These results need to be validated in prospective studies.
