QL1706 (anti-PD-1 IgG4/CTLA-4 antibody) plus chemotherapy with or without bevacizumab in advanced non-small cell lung cancer: a multi-cohort, phase II study

Abstract First-line chemoimmunotherapy (with or without bevacizumab) has improved outcomes in advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Here, this open-label, multi-cohort phase II study (NCT05329025) was done to investigate the safety and efficacy of QL1706 (a single bifunctional MabPair product...

description Abstract First-line chemoimmunotherapy (with or without bevacizumab) has improved outcomes in advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Here, this open-label, multi-cohort phase II study (NCT05329025) was done to investigate the safety and efficacy of QL1706 (a single bifunctional MabPair product against PD-1 and CTLA-4) and chemotherapy with or without bevacizumab in this population. Patients were enrolled into five different cohorts based on genotype (cohorts 1-4, epidermal growth factor receptor [EGFR] wild-type; cohort 5, EGFR-mutant and progressed on EGFR-tyrosine kinase inhibitors [TKIs]). Between June 11, 2021 and December 29, 2021, 91 patients were enrolled. Most frequent treatment-related adverse events (TRAEs) included decreased appetite (60 [65.9%]), anemia (60 [65.9%]), infusion-related reactions (48 [52.7%]), and pruritus (44 [48.4%]). Grade ≥ 3 TRAEs occurred in 30 (33.0%) patients. Twenty-seven (45%) patients with wild-type EGFR achieved partial response (PR) (objective response rate [ORR] = 45%) and had a median progression-free survival (mPFS) of 6.8 months (95% CI: 5.2-9.7). For 31 patients harboring mutated EGFR, 17 (54.8%) achieved PR (ORR = 54.8%), with an mPFS of 8.5 months (95% CI: 5.72-not evaluable). Overall, QL1706 plus chemotherapy, regardless of having bevacizumab, was generally tolerable and had promising antitumor activity for EGFR wild-type advanced NSCLC in first-line setting. Moreover, QL1706 plus chemotherapy and bevacizumab showed favorable antitumor activity for patients who had EGFR mutated NSCLC but failed in TKI therapy, demonstrating a potential for treating this population.
