Popis: 305 Background: Nivolumab plus ipilimumab (NIVO+IPI), a first-in-class combination immunotherapy, was approved by the US Food and Drug Administration in April 2018 for the treatment of intermediate- or poor-risk advanced renal cell carcinoma (RCC), and the treatment paradigm has changed dramatically over the past few years. This real-world study examined treatment patterns and sequences, treatment response, safety, and survival outcomes with this novel first-line (1L) combination therapy among patients diagnosed with metastatic RCC (mRCC) in a community oncology practice setting. Methods: A retrospective analysis of the US Oncology Network’s iKnowMed medical data examined adult patients with an International Metastatic Renal Cell Carcinoma Database Consortium (IMDC) prognosis of intermediate- or poor-risk clear cell mRCC who received 1L NIVO+IPI between April 1, 2018, and March 31, 2020. Baseline demographic and clinical characteristics, treatment patterns, and treatment sequence were examined descriptively. Overall survival (OS), progression-free survival (PFS), objective response rate (ORR), duration of response (DoR), time to treatment discontinuation (TTD), and time to treatment response (TTR) were analyzed using the Kaplan–Meier method. Treatment-related adverse events (TRAEs) and healthcare resource utilization were also analyzed. Results: A total of 193 adults with stage IV mRCC treated with 1L NIVO+IPI were identified. Median age (range) was 63 (30.0–89.0) years, 73.1% were male, 69.4% were white, 56.7% were IMDC intermediate risk, and 60.6% had a documented Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance status of 0 or 1. Median follow-up time (range) was 9.7 (0.1–24.7) months. Median PFS (95% CI) was 17.1 (12.6–21.2) months, and the 1-year landmark PFS rate was 58.3% (50.4–65.4). At 12 months, the OS rate (95% CI) was 75.4% (67.8–81.4). The ORR (95% CI) was 43.2% (34.6–52.1) among patients with a response assessment; the median TTR (range) was 2.8 (0.3–4.1) months and median DoR was not reached. Median TTD (95% CI) was 5.8 (4.5–7.5) months. Among the 63 (31.3%) patients who received second-line therapy, 50.8% received cabozantinib and 12.7% received pazopanib. TRAEs were reported in 47.2% of patients—the most frequently reported were fatigue (13.5%), rash (10.4%), diarrhea (6.7%), nausea (6.2%), colitis (3.6%), and pruritus (3.6%). The treatment-related hospitalization rate was 5.5% and the emergency department visit rate was 3.1%. Conclusions: This real-world study supports the clinical efficacy of 1L NIVO+IPI for patients with mRCC. Our findings also suggest that the NIVO+IPI combination was generally well tolerated in the real-world setting, with low rates of adverse events and healthcare resource utilization.
