BACKGROUND: Enhancing tumor-specific T-cell immunity by inhibiting programmed death ligand 1 (PD-L1)-programmed death 1 (PD-1) signaling has shown promise in the treatment of extensive-stage small-cell lung cancer. Combining checkpoint inhibition with cytotoxic chemotherapy may have a synergistic effect and improve efficacy. METHODS: We conducted this double-blind, placebo-controlled, phase 3 trial to evaluate atezolizumab plus carboplatin and etoposide in patients with extensive-stage small-cell lung cancer who had not previously received treatment. Patients were randomly assigned in a 1:1 ratio to receive carboplatin and etoposide with either atezolizumab or placebo for four 21-day cycles (induction phase), followed by a maintenance phase during which they received either atezolizumab or placebo (according to the previous random assignment) until they had unacceptable toxic effects, disease progression according to Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors, version 1.1, or no additional clinical benefit. The two primary end points were investigator-assessed progression-free survival and overall survival in the intention-to-treat population. RESULTS: A total of 201 patients were randomly assigned to the atezolizumab group, and 202 patients to the placebo group. At a median follow-up of 13.9 months, the median overall survival was 12.3 months in the atezolizumab group and 10.3 months in the placebo group (hazard ratio for death, 0.70; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.54 to 0.91; P=0.007). The median progression-free survival was 5.2 months and 4.3 months, respectively (hazard ratio for disease progression or death, 0.77; 95% CI, 0.62 to 0.96; P=0.02). The safety profile of atezolizumab plus carboplatin and etoposide was consistent with the previously reported safety profile of the individual agents, with no new findings observed. CONCLUSIONS: The addition of atezolizumab to chemotherapy in the first-line treatment of extensive-stage small-cell lung cancer resulted in significantly longer overall survival and progression-free survival than chemotherapy alone.

Purpose Patients with extensive-stage disease small-cell lung cancer (SCLC) have poor survival outcomes despite first-line chemotherapy with etoposide and platinum. This randomized, double-blind phase III study evaluated the efficacy and safety of ipilimumab or placebo plus etoposide and platinum in patients with newly diagnosed extensive-stage disease SCLC. Patients and Methods Patients were randomly assigned at a ratio of one to one to receive chemotherapy with etoposide and platinum (cisplatin or carboplatin) plus ipilimumab 10 mg/kg or placebo every 3 weeks for a total of four doses each in a phased induction schedule (chemotherapy in cycles one to four; ipilimumab or placebo beginning in cycle three up to cycle six), followed by ipilimumab or placebo maintenance every 12 weeks. Primary end point was overall survival (OS) among patients receiving at least one dose of blinded study therapy. Results Of 1,132 patients randomly assigned, 954 received at least one dose of study therapy (chemotherapy plus ipilimumab, n = 478; chemotherapy plus placebo, n = 476). Median OS was 11.0 months for chemotherapy plus ipilimumab versus 10.9 months for chemotherapy plus placebo (hazard ratio, 0.94; 95% CI, 0.81 to 1.09; P = .3775). Median progression-free survival was 4.6 months for chemotherapy plus ipilimumab versus 4.4 months for chemotherapy plus placebo (hazard ratio, 0.85; 95% CI, 0.75 to 0.97). Rates and severity of treatment-related adverse events were similar between arms, except for diarrhea, rash, and colitis, which were more frequent with chemotherapy plus ipilimumab. Rate of treatment-related discontinuation was higher with chemotherapy plus ipilimumab (18% v 2% with chemotherapy plus placebo). Five treatment-related deaths occurred with chemotherapy plus ipilimumab and two with chemotherapy plus placebo. Conclusion Addition of ipilimumab to chemotherapy did not prolong OS versus chemotherapy alone in patients with newly diagnosed extensive-stage disease SCLC. No new or unexpected adverse events were observed with chemotherapy plus ipilimumab. Several ongoing studies are evaluating ipilimumab in combination with programmed death-1 inhibitors in SCLC.

BACKGROUND: The combination of oral vinorelbine plus cisplatin has been studied in numerous trials as first-line treatment of patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) regardless of histologic subtype. NAVoTrial 01 is the first study that explores this combination specifically in nonsquamous (NS) NSCLC by assessing the feasibility of this doublet (ratio 1:2) in an investigational approach. A reference arm with pemetrexed plus cisplatin was included. Maintenance therapy with single-agent therapy after 4 cycles of combination therapy was included in the study schedules because it reflected a trend in first-line treatment of NSCLC. PATIENTS AND METHODS: Stage IIIB/IV untreated/relapsed patients with NS NSCLC received a 3-week cycle of pemetrexed 500 mg/m(2) and cisplatin 75 mg/m(2) on day 1 (arm A) or oral vinorelbine 80 mg/m(2) on days 1 and 8 (first cycle 60 mg/m(2)) and cisplatin 80 mg/m(2) on day 1 (arm B). After 4 cycles, patients without disease progression received single-agent maintenance treatment with pemetrexed or oral vinorelbine. RESULTS: Overall, 153 patients were randomized (arm A/arm B: 51/102). Disease control rate (%) for arm A was 76.5 (95% confidence interval [CI], 62.5-87.2) and for arm B it was 75.0 (95% CI, 65.3-83.1), Response rates for arm A were 31.4% (95% CI, 19.1-45.9) and for arm B were 24.0% (95% CI, 16.0-33.6). Median progression-free survival for arm A was 4.3 months (95% CI, 3.8-5.6) and for arm B it was 4.2 months (95% CI, 3.6-4.7). Median survival for arm A was 10.8 months (95% CI, 7.0-16.4) and for arm B it was 10.2 months (95% CI, 7.8-11.9). Main grade 3/4 hematologic toxicities were neutropenia 18.3% (arm A) and 44.0% (arm B), whereas febrile neutropenia was reported in 2% of patients in each arm. CONCLUSION: Oral vinorelbine and cisplatin had an efficacy in line with that achieved with a standard treatment such as pemetrexed and cisplatin, coupled with an acceptable safety profile.
