KEY STUDY END POINTS
Primary: PFS (RECIST v1.1, per blinded independent central review)
Secondary: OS, ORR, safety
Exploratory (prespecified): DOR, patient-reported outcomes
Key Eligibility Criteria
• Untreated stage IV NSCLC
• PD-L1 TPS ≥50%
• No activating EGFR mutation or ALK
translocation
• No untreated brain metastases
• No active autoimmune disease
requiring systemic therapy

INDIVIDUALIZE
THERAPEUTIC DECISION
Pembrolizumab + pemetrexed/ platinum can be considered a new standard of
care for unpreviosuly treated advanced non-squamous NSCLC, independently of
PD-L1 status
OUTSTANDING RESULTS: despite the “low results” in control arm, more than
expected (at least for me) survival benefit
Median OS: NR vs 11.3 meses
Reduccion of risk of death by 51%
For those PD-L1 > 50% pembro monotherapy and pembro+platinum doublet are
valid treatment options: personalize decision
PD-L1 testing is still valid…and this is my personal opinion
My main thouhgts…

Some reflections from Checkmate 227…and
TMB
Introduces nivolumab + ipilimumab as a new option for first-line NSCLC
with TMB ≥10 mut/Mb
Durable benefit while sparing first-line chemotherapy and preserving
effective second-line options
Do we need OS data…don´t forget in CM 026 PFS by TMB did not
correlate with OS
Access to TMB determination, turnaround time, analytical validation,
standarization…
Does TMB need prospective validation?

Some notes to conclude…
BIOMARKERS FOR IO PD-L1, the first one, the imperfect one… still matters
TMB expensive and immature...
LIPI, why not?
Patient characteristics (PS 2, autoinmune diseases, EGFRmut, ALK….): IO is not the best option
Toxicity matters…overall with combinations
