The pembro + axi benefit was observed across all IMDC risk groups and regardless of PD-L1 expression. We present data for the combined intermediate/poor risk group and for patients (pts) with sarcomatoid features. Methods: 861 eligible pts with clear-cell mRCC, no prior systemic therapy for mRCC, and KPS $70 were randomized 1:1 to pembro 200 mg IV Q3W for a maximum of 35 cycles plus axi 5 mg orally BID (N = 432) or sunitinib 50 mg orally QD (4-wk on/2-wk off) (N = 429). Primary endpoints were OS and PFS (RECIST v1.1 by blinded, independent central review [BICR]). ORR (RECIST v1.1 by BICR) was the key secondary endpoint. The intermediate/poor risk group was prespecified; the sarcomatoid group was exploratory. HRs and their 95% CIs were calculated with a Cox proportional hazards model. None of the analyses were multiplicity-controlled. Results: 592 (68.8%) of all randomized pts were of IMDC intermediate/poor risk — 294 in the pembro + axi arm, 298 in the sunitinib arm. Pembro + axi improved OS (HR 0.52, 95% CI 0.37-0.74; 12-mo rate 87.3% vs 71.3%), PFS (HR 0.67, 95% CI 0.53-0.85; median 12.6 vs 8.2 mo), and ORR (55.8% [95% CI 49.9-61.5] vs 29.5% [24.4-35.1]) in pts with intermediate/poor risk; CR rates were 4.8% (95% CI 2.6-7.9) vs 0.7% (0.1-2.4). Of the 578 pts with known status, 105 (18.2%) had sarcomatoid features — 51inthepembro+ axi arm, 54 in the sunitinib arm. Pembro + axi improved OS (HR 0.58, 95% CI 0.21-1.59; 12-mo rate 83.4% vs 79.5%), PFS (HR 0.54, 95% CI 0.29-1.00; mediannotreachedvs8.4mo),andORR(58.8% [95% CI 44.2-72.4] vs 31.5% [19.5-45.6]) in pts with sarcomatoid features; CR rates were 11.8% (95% CI 4.4-23.9) vs 0% (0.0-6.6). Conclusions: Pembro + axi provides benefit in the combined population of pts with IMDC intermediate or poor risk and in pts whose tumors had sarcomatoid features. The observed benefits were consistent with those seen in the total population. Clinical trial information: NCT02853331. © 2019 American Society of Clinical Oncology.

GENITOURINARY (NONPROSTATE) CANCER 4501 Oral Abstract Session, Mon, 8:00 AM-11:00 AM A pilot randomized study evaluating nivolumab (nivo) or nivo + bevacizumab (bev) or nivo + ipilimumab (ipi) in patients with metastatic renal cell carcinoma (MRCC) eligible for cytoreductive nephrectomy, metastasectomy or post-treatment biopsy (Bx).

Wood, Padmanee Sharma; The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center, Houston, TX; University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center, Houston, TX; Department of Immunology, The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center, Houston, TX Background: Cytoreductive surgery (CS) including cytoreductive nephrectomy and metastasectomy pro- vides clinical benefits to patients with MRCC. However, CS has not been evaluated in the setting of immune checkpoint (IC) therapy. We performed a pre-surgical/biopsy trial to evaluate biological and clinical activity of nivo +/- (bev or ipi) in patients with MRCC. Methods: In this open-label, randomized trial (NCT02210117), patients with MRCC w/o prior IC therapy and anti-VEGF therapy were randomized 2:3:2 to receive nivo (3mg/kg q2wks x3), nivo + bev (10mg/kg q2wks x3) or nivo + ipi (1mg/kg q3wks x2), followed by CS or Bx, and then nivo maintenance therapy up to 2 yrs. Clinical response per RECIST criteria was assessed at $12 wks. Pre- and post-treatment blood and tumors were obtained for correlative studies. Results: All of 105 patients have been accrued and 104 are evaluable for response. For all patients, best overall response (BOR = complete response [CR] + partial response [PR]) including surgery effect was 55% nivo, 44% nivo + bev, 43% nivo + ipi. Median PFS (95% confidence interval) was 14.5 months (5.5, not reached [NR]) nivo, 7.6 (4.8, 8.9) months nivo + bev, 7.5 (2.0, 12.4) months nivo + ipi. Overall survival (OS) at one year was 86% nivo, 73% nivo + bev, 83% nivo + ipi. Grade 3 or higher toxicities related to therapy were 38% for nivo, 42% for nivo + bev (including 18% hypertension), and 47% for nivo + ipi. For patients with CS, BOR including surgery effect was: 86% nivo, 88% nivo + bev, and 69% nivo + ipi. Median PFS was 17.3 months (6.1, NR) nivo, 7.6 (5.7, 10.3) months nivo + bev, 8.9 (2.9, 23.0) months nivo + ipi. OS at one year was 100% nivo, 94% nivo + bev, 92% nivo + ipi. Median OS has not yet reached with a median follow-up of 24.6 months. Immune and gene profiling analyses demonstrate: 1) tumor infiltrating CD8 T cells correlate with clinical responses to nivo or nivo + bev, but not to nivo + ipi; 2) tumor IFN pathway gene expression correlates with responses; and 3) PD-L1 status, tumor mutation or mutation burden, neoantigens did not correlate with response. Conclusions: ICtherapyplusCSissafeandbeneficial to patients with MRCC and therefore, warrants testing, along with a few correlative biomarkers, in a larger phase 3 trial.

Pazopanib is an inhibitor of VEGFR and other kinases that improves progression-free survival in patients with measurable RCC metastatic disease. We performed a randomized, double-blind, placebo- controlled multicenter study to test the hypothesis that pazopanib would improve disease-free survival in patients with mRCC rendered NED after metastasectomy Methods: Patients with NED following meta- stasectomy were randomized 1:1 to receive pazopanib starting at 800 mg daily vs. placebo for 52 weeks. Patients were stratified by 1 vs. 1 site of resected disease, and by disease-free interval # vs. 1year. Clinical assessment for toxicity and patient-reported outcomes were performed every 4 weeks, and restaging scans every 12 weeks.
