: On October 2, 2015, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) granted
accelerated approval for pembrolizumab, a breakthrough therapy-designated drug,
for the treatment of patients with metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC)
whose tumors express programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1), as determined by an
FDA-approved test, and who have disease progression on or after
platinum-containing chemotherapy or targeted therapy against anaplastic lymphoma
kinase or epidermal growth factor receptor, if appropriate. This indication was
approved concurrently with the PD-L1 immunohistochemistry 22C3 pharmDx, a
companion diagnostic test for patient selection based on PD-L1 tumor expression.
The accelerated approval was granted based on durable objective response rate
(ORR) and an acceptable toxicity profile demonstrated in a multicenter,
open-label trial enrolling 550 patients with metastatic NSCLC. The efficacy
population comprised 61 patients with tumors identified as strongly positive for
PD-L1, and the confirmed ORR as determined by blinded independent central review
was 41% (95% confidence interval: 28.6%, 54.3%); all were partial responses. At
the time of the analysis, responses were ongoing in 21 of 25 patients (84%), with
11 patients (44%) having response duration of ?6 months. The most commonly
occurring (?20%) adverse reactions included fatigue, decreased appetite, dyspnea,
and cough. The most frequent (?2%) serious adverse drug reactions were pleural
effusion, pneumonia, dyspnea, pulmonary embolism, and pneumonitis.
Immune-mediated adverse reactions occurred in 13% of patients and included
pneumonitis, colitis, hypophysitis, and thyroid disorders. The accelerated
approval regulations describe approval of drugs and biologic products for serious
and life-threatening illnesses based on a surrogate endpoint likely to predict
clinical benefit. Under these regulations, a confirmatory trial or trials is
required to verify and describe the benefit of pembrolizumab for patients with
metastatic NSCLC. IMPLICATIONS FOR PRACTICE: This report presents key information
on the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) accelerated approval of
pembrolizumab for the treatment of patients with metastatic non-small cell lung
cancer whose tumors express programmed death-ligand 1, as determined by an
FDA-approved test, and who have disease progression on or after
platinum-containing chemotherapy or targeted therapy against anaplastic lymphoma
kinase or epidermal growth factor receptor, if appropriate. The report discusses
the data supporting the approval decision, specifically highlighting the
incorporation of a companion diagnostic in the key study and the optimal dose of
pembrolizumab.
