LAG3-PD1 or CTLA4-PD1 Inhibition in Advanced Melanoma: Indirect Cross Comparisons of the CheckMate-067 and RELATIVITY-047 Trials

<b>Objective:</b> To compare the inhibition of LAG3-PD1 versus the inhibition of CTLA-4-PD1 in patients with previously untreated advanced melanoma. <b>Methods:</b> The individual participant data (IPD) were extracted from the KM plots using a graphical reconstructive algorit...

description <b>Objective:</b> To compare the inhibition of LAG3-PD1 versus the inhibition of CTLA-4-PD1 in patients with previously untreated advanced melanoma. <b>Methods:</b> The individual participant data (IPD) were extracted from the KM plots using a graphical reconstructive algorithm. Log-rank, Cox proportional hazard model, Bayesian hierarchical model with time-varying hazard ratio (HR) effect, and restricted mean survival time (RMST) were performed to estimate survival benefits. <b>Results:</b> The CheckMate-067 (<i>n</i> = 630) and RELATIVITY-047 (<i>n</i> = 714) trials were included for analysis. The graphical reconstructive algorithm showed that IPD had similar HRs and log-rank values as the original plots. The HR of nivolumab plus relatlimab (LAG3 inhibitor) versus nivolumab plus ipilimumab (CTLA4 inhibitor) was 1.19 (95% confidence interval [CI] 0.96 to1.48). The 24-months RMST of nivolumab plus relatlimab versus nivolumab was 2.35 (95% CI 0.77–3.94) months, compared with 1.87 (95% CI, 0.25–3.49) months for nivolumab plus ipilimumab versus nivolumab. The Bayesian hierarchical model showed that patients treated with nivolumab plus relatlimab had earlier PFS benefits than those with nivolumab plus ipilimumab. Grade 3 or 4 treatment-related adverse events occurred in 18.9% of patients using nivolumab plus relatlimab and 55.0% of patients using nivolumab plus ipilimumab. <b>Conclusions:</b> These findings suggest that the PFS of LAG3-PD1 and CTLA4-PD1 inhibition were similar and LAG3-PD1 inhibition exhibited earlier survival benefit and lesser TRAEs.
