e14135 Background: Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) are approved for the treatment of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and are associated with immune-related adverse events (irAEs). However, real-life data on type, occurrence and kinetics of irAEs, and their predictive value on treatment outcome are lacking. Here, we report on the relation between irAEs, including endocrine irAEs, and outcome to anti-PD-/L-1 (programmed cell death protein-/ligand-1) ICIs. Methods: A total of 147 patients (pts), with locally advanced/metastatic NSCLC, treated with anti-PD-1 (N 140; 95%) or anti-PD-L1 agents (N 7; 5%) as ≥ 2 line treatment were included in two independent, prospective, cohorts at the Institut Curie (ALCINA-NCT02866149) and at Biella Hospital (Italy). PD-L1 status was assessed by immunohistochemistry (clone 22C3, Dako). Progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) were estimated with Kaplan-Meier curves. Results: Median follow-up of 147 pts was 10.2 (range: 0.7-42.8) months; median age, 66 (35-85) years; 100 men (68%). After treatment initiation, irAEs were observed in 72 pts (49%). Thirty one (43%) pts had only endocrine irAEs, mostly thyroid dysfunctions (N 44, 61%). Pre-existing thyroid disease was present in only 6 pts (4%). Dermatologic toxicity in 21 (29%) pts was the next most frequent irAE, 22 (30%) pts had other types of irAEs. Among patients with irAEs, 61 (85%) had ≤ 2 coexisting irAEs, and 13 (18%) pts had > 2 irAEs. Most irAEs were G1 (63%) and G2 (18%). Onset and kinetics differed according to irAE type. There was no association between PD-L1 status and irAE occurrence. Median PFS was 7.2 and 4.2 months in irAEs vs no-irAEs group, respectively [HR 0.70 (95% CI 0.46;1.08), p 0.11]. Median OS in the irAEs group was 18.1 months vs 13.6 months no-irAEs group [HR 0.64 (95% CI 0.37;0.98), p 0.039]. Median OS in the endocrine-irAEs group was 23.5 vs 13.6 months in the no-irAEs group [HR 0.58 (0.74;3.92), p 0.2]. Conclusions: In this study, we show that irAEs – including endocrine type – are frequent in NSCLC pts treated with ICIs and that their occurrence is associated with a survival benefit.
