Antiangiogenic drug combinations with anti-programmed cell death 1 protein and anti-programmed cell death 1 ligand 1 (PD-L1) agents are a novel treatment option for lung cancer. However, survival remains limited, and the activity of these combinations for tumors with high tumor mutation burden (TMB) is unknown. To assess the clinical benefits and safety of atezolizumab plus bevacizumab for patients with high-TMB advanced nonsquamous non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). This multicenter, single-arm, open-label, phase 2 nonrandomized controlled trial (Atezolizumab Plus Bevacizumab in First-Line NSCLC Patients [TELMA]) included treatment-naive patients aged 18 years or older with confirmed stage IIIB-IV nonsquamous NSCLC with TMB of 10 or more mutations/megabase and no EGFR, ALK, STK11, MDM2, or ROS1 alterations. From May 2019 through January 2021, patients were assessed at 13 sites in Spain, with follow-up until February 28, 2022. Participants were given atezolizumab, 1200 mg, plus bevacizumab, 15 mg/kg, on day 1 of each 21-day cycle. Treatment was continued until documented disease progression, unacceptable toxic effects, patient withdrawal, investigator decision, or death. Main Outcomes and Measures: The primary end point was 12-month progression-free survival (PFS) rate (according to Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumours, version 1. 1 criteria); PFS was defined as the time from enrollment to disease progression or death. Adverse events were monitored according to the National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events, version 4. 0. A total of 307 patients were assessed for trial eligibility, of whom 266 were ineligible for enrollment. Of the 41 patients enrolled, 3 did not fulfill all inclusion criteria and were excluded. The remaining 38 patients (28 [73. 7%] male; mean [SD] age, 63. 7 [8. 3] years) constituted the per-protocol population. The 12-month PFS rate was 51. 3% (95% CI, 34. 2%-66. 0%), which met the primary end point. The 12-month overall survival (OS) rate was 72. 0% (95% CI, 54. 1%-83. 9%). The median PFS was 13. 0 months (95% CI, 7. 9-18. 0 months), and the median OS was not reached. Of the 38 patients, 16 (42. 1%) achieved an objective response and 30 (78. 9%) achieved disease control. The median time to response was 2. 8 months (IQR, 2. 8-3. 58 months), with a median duration of response of 11. 7 months (range, 3. 57-22. 4 months; the response was ongoing at cutoff). Of 16 responses, 8 (50. 0%) were ongoing. Most adverse events were grade 1 or 2. For atezolizumab, the most common adverse events were fatigue (6 [15. 8%]) and pruritus (6 [15. 8%]). For bevacizumab, they were hypertension (10 [26. 3%]) and proteinuria (4 [10. 5%]). Drug discontinuation occurred in 2 patients receiving atezolizumab (5. 3%) and 3 patients receiving bevacizumab (7. 9%). PD-L1 levels were not associated with response, PFS, or OS. These findings suggest that atezolizumab with bevacizumab is a potential treatment for high-TMB nonsquamous NSCLC. ClinicalTrials. gov Identifier: NCT03836066. |
