OBJECTIVES: To examine patient and disease characteristics, toxicity, and clinical outcomes for patients with advanced urothelial carcinoma (aUC) who are rechallenged with immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI)-based therapy. PATIENTS AND METHODS: In this retrospective cohort, we included patients treated with ICI for aUC after having prior ICI treatment. Endpoints included the evaluation of radiographic response and disease control rates with first and second ICI courses, outcomes based on whether there was a change in ICI class (anti-PD-1 vs. anti-PD-L1), and assessment of the reasons for ICI discontinuation. RESULTS: We identified 25 patients with aUC from 9 institutions who received 2 separate ICI courses. ORR with first ICI and second ICI were 39% and 13%, respectively. Most patients discontinued first ICI due to progression (n = 19) or treatment-related toxicity (n = 4). Thirteen patients received non-ICI treatment between the first and second ICI, and 12 patients changed ICI class (anti-PD-1 vs. anti-PD-L1) at rechallenge. Among 10 patients who changed ICI class, 8 (80%) had progressive disease as best response with second ICI, while among 12 patients re-treated with the same ICI class, only 3 (25%) had progressive disease as best response at the time of rechallenge. With second ICI, most patients discontinued treatment due to progression (n = 18) or patient preference (n = 2). CONCLUSIONS: A proportion of patients with aUC rechallenged with ICI-based regimens may achieve disease control, supporting clinical trials in that setting, especially with ICI-based combinations. Future studies are needed to validate our results and should also focus on identifying biomarkers predictive of benefit with ICI rechallenge.
目的:研究接受基于免疫检查点抑制剂(ICI)治疗的晚期尿路上皮癌(aUC)患者再次接受该治疗时的患者及疾病特征、毒性和临床结局。 患者与方法:在这项回顾性队列研究中,我们纳入了先前接受过ICI治疗后又接受ICI治疗aUC的患者。终点包括评估首次和第二次ICI疗程的影像学反应和疾病控制率、基于ICI类别(抗PD-1与抗PD-L1)变化的结局,以及评估ICI停药原因。 结果:我们从9家机构中识别出25例接受过2次独立ICI疗程的aUC患者。首次ICI和第二次ICI的客观缓解率分别为39%和13%。大多数患者因疾病进展(n = 19)或治疗相关毒性(n = 4)而停用首次ICI。13例患者在首次和第二次ICI之间接受了非ICI治疗,12例患者在再次接受治疗时更换了ICI类别(抗PD-1与抗PD-L1)。在更换ICI类别的10例患者中,8例(80%)在第二次ICI治疗时最佳反应为疾病进展,而在接受相同ICI类别再次治疗的12例患者中,只有3例(25%)在再次接受治疗时最佳反应为疾病进展。对于第二次ICI治疗,大多数患者因疾病进展(n = 18)或患者意愿(n = 2)而停药。 结论:一部分接受基于ICI方案再次治疗的aUC患者可能实现疾病控制,这支持了在该情况下开展临床试验,尤其是基于ICI的联合治疗试验。未来需要进行研究以验证我们的结果,并应侧重于识别预测ICI再次治疗获益的生物标志物。
