Abstract Text | Background Platinum-based doublet chemotherapy in combination with immune checkpoint inhibitors is the standard of care for patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). The purpose of our study is to explore a new way without chemotherapy by consolidating the efficacy of checkpoint inhibitors in combination with anti-angiogenic agents. AK104, a bispecific antibody, is capable of simultaneously binding PD-1 and CTLA-4 with high affinity. Anlotinib is a new, orally administered tyrosine kinase inhibitor that targets vascular endothelial growth factor receptor, thereby exerting inhibitory effects on tumor growth and angiogenesis, and has been approved for third-line treatment of NSCLC in China. Methods This is a single-arm, two part, phase Ib/II study. All patients were stage IIIB/C or IV NSCLC, Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status 0-1. Part 1 enrolled treatment-naïve patients with advanced NSCLC. Patients will receive AK104 10 mg/kg every 2 weeks or 15 mg/kg every 3 weeks, and 12mg anlotinib 2 weeks on/1 week off. Part 2 enrolled patients with metastatic or recurrent NSCLC after progression on treatment with PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitors. Tumor tissues for determination of PD-L1 expression are needed before study treatment. The primary endpoints are objective response rate (ORR) per RECISTv1.1 and safety. Results 18 treatment-naïve patients (median age was 66 [range:33–73] years old, ECOG performance status 0/1 [11%/89%], male/female [94%/6%], squamous/non-squamous [50%/50%]) with PD-L1 tumor proportion score (TPS) ≥1% were enrolled and received combination therapy (2 received 10 mg/kg AK104, 16 received 15 mg/kg AK104; and all received 12 mg anlotinib) in part 1. At data cut-off (April 15, 2021), in 8 evaluable patients, the ORR was 62.5% (5/8) and DCR was 100% (8/8). Among them, the ORR was 80% (4/5) in non-squamous NSCLC. Grade 3 treatment-related adverse events (TRAEs) occurred in 6% (1/18, 1 proteinuria) of patients. No Grade 4 or 5 TRAEs had occurred. Conclusions AK104 in combination with anlotinib showed favorable antitumor activity and an acceptable safety profile in treatment-naïve patients with PD-L1 TPS≥1% NSCLC. This new combination therapy warrants further evaluation for the treatment of NSCLC. |

CD274 positive | lung non-small cell carcinoma | predicted - sensitive | Anlotinib + Cadonilimab | Phase Ib/II | Actionable | In a Phase Ib/II trial, combination treatment with Cadonilimab and Anlotinib (AL-3818) demonstrated antitumor activity in patients with CD274 (PD-L1) positive (TPS >= 1%) non-small cell lung cancer, and led to an objective response rate of 62.5% (5/8) and a disease control rate of 100% (8/8).
