biostudies-literature00600Unknown112(1)Ye DBeiGene, Ltd.Tislelizumab, an anti-programmed death protein-1 (PD-1) monoclonal antibody, was engineered to minimize binding to the FcγR on macrophages to abrogate antibody-dependent phagocytosis, a mechanism of T-cell clearance and potential resistance to anti-PD-1 therapy. This single-arm phase 2 trial (NCT04004221/CTR20170071) assessed the safety, tolerability, and efficacy of tislelizumab in patients with PD-L1-positive urothelial carcinoma who progressed during/following platinum-containing therapy and had no prior PD-(L)1 inhibitor treatment. Patients were considered PD-L1 positive if ≥ 25% of tumor/immune cells expressed PD-L1 when using the VENTANA™ PD-L1 (SP263) assay. The primary endpoint was objective response rate by independent review committee. As of September 16, 2019, 113 patients had a median study follow-up time of 9.4 mo. Most patients (76%) had visceral metastases, including 24% with liver and 23% with bone metastases. Among 104 efficacy-evaluable patients, confirmed objective response rate was 24% (95% confidence interval, 16, 33), including 10 complete and 15 partial responses. Median duration of response was not reached. Among 25 responders, 17/25 (68%) had ongoing responses. Median progression-free survival and overall survival times were 2.1 and 9.8 mo, respectively. The most common treatment-related adverse events were anemia (27%) and pyrexia (19%). Anemia (7%) and hyponatremia (5%) were the only grade 3-4 treatment-related adverse events and occurred in ≥ 5% of patients. Three investigator-assessed deaths were considered to be possibly related to study treatment (hepatic failure, n = 2; respiratory arrest, n = 1). Tislelizumab demonstrated meaningful clinical benefits in patients with previously treated locally advanced or metastatic PD-L1-positive urothelial carcinoma and had a manageable safety profile.Cancer science305-313https://www.ebi.ac.uk/biostudies/studies/S-EPMC7780053biostudies-literatureTislelizumab in Asian patients with previously treated locally advanced or metastatic urothelial carcinoma.PMC7780053Li HLiu JZhang DMa LHuang JBao YZhang LBi FFu CQiu XZhou AGuo JXiao JHu HYe DZou QPark SHJin JShen WZhu S60falseTislelizumab in Asian patients with previously treated locally advanced or metastatic urothelial carcinoma.Tislelizumab, an anti-programmed death protein-1 (PD-1) monoclonal antibody, was engineered to minimize binding to the FcγR on macrophages to abrogate antibody-dependent phagocytosis, a mechanism of T-cell clearance and potential resistance to anti-PD-1 therapy.
