Atezolizumab alone or in combination did not demonstrate a favorable risk-benefit profile in myelodysplastic syndrome.

ABSTRACT: We present primary results from the phase 1b GO29754 study evaluating the safety and tolerability of atezolizumab, a programmed death-ligand 1 inhibitor, alone and in combination with azacitidine, a hypomethylating agent (HMA), in patients with relapsed/refractory (R/R) or HMA-naïve myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS). Patients with R/R MDS received atezolizumab for 12 months (cohort A) or atezolizumab plus azacitidine for 6 cycles followed by atezolizumab as maintenance for 8 cycles (cohort B). Patients with HMA-naïve MDS received atezolizumab plus azacitidine until loss of clinical benefit (cohort C). Safety, activity, and exploratory end points were investigated. Forty-six patients were enrolled and received treatment (cohort A, n = 11; cohort B, n = 14; cohort C, n = 21). All patients exper
