BACKGROUND METHODS

Outcomes of patients who progressed • RCC is the most common kidney cancer and constitutes • In the phase 3 JAVELIN Renal 101 trial, A + Ax demonstrated • In the JAVELIN Renal 101 trial, treatment-naive patients • Patients receiving 2L systemic Tx were assessed and approximately 3% of all malignant tumors in adults. RCC is often first significantly longer progression-free survival compared with sunitinib in with aRCC were randomized 1:1 to receive avelumab grouped in the following categories: 4 (10 mg/kg intravenously every 2 weeks) + axitinib (5 mg detected at an advanced stage, with 25% to 30% of patients with patients who received these therapies as 1L Tx for aRCC – SA Tx with VEGF(R) or PD-(L)1 inhibitors or other while receiving avelumab + axitinib metastatic disease at diagnosis1 orally twice daily) or sunitinib (50 mg orally once daily for • There are limited data on the outcomes of patients receiving 2L 4 weeks of a 6-week cycle) – Combination therapy (COMBO) with VEGF(R) inhibitors • Avelumab is a human immunoglobulin G1 (IgG1) monoclonal systemic therapy following immunotherapies plus TKIs in the 1L + other, or any other COMBO (A + Ax) and received subsequent antibody targeting PD-L1 that was approved in combination with • At the cutoff date for the third interim analysis (April 28, axitinib, a VEGFR TKI, for 1L Tx of aRCC2,3 2020), patients who received 1L A + Ax and received any • We report the OS and the time receiving 2L treatment for treatment (Tx) in JAVELIN Renal 101 or no subsequent lines of Tx were assessed these groups using the Kaplan-Meier method

RESULTS

• At the cutoff date for the third interim analysis, 346 of 442 patients • 20 of 204 patients received 2L COMBO with VEGF(R) + other, with the Figure 1.
