Immune Checkpoint Inhibitors Have Clinical Activity in Patients With Recurrent Chordoma.

ABSTRACT: The aim of this study is to evaluate the outcomes and tolerance of immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) for patients with recurrent chordoma. We reviewed the records of 17 patients with recurrent chordomas who received ICIs for progressing disease as part of their treatment between 2016 and 2020. Response was assessed using response evaluation criteria in solid tumors 1.1 criteria. The Kaplan-Meier method was used to estimate the duration of response, progression-free survival (PFS), and overall survival (OS). Clinical benefit was defined as having stable disease (SD), a partial response, or a complete response. The median follow-up from the start of ICIs was 29 months [interquartile range (IQR): 13-35 m]. The majority received pembrolizumab (n=9, 53%), and the median number of cycles deliv
