1595TiPNivolumab plus ipilimumab (NI) versus chemotherapy plus nivolumab (CN) in squamous cell lung cancer (SqCLC): The SQUINT trial
2019
Abstract Background Treatment landscape for patients with advanced NSCLC is rapidly evolving, with recent randomized phase III trials demonstrating superiority of chemo-immuno combinations versus chemotherapy alone. Role of chemo-free combinations, including NI, is under investigation with limited available data. Aim of the present trial is to investigate outcome of SqCLC patients when treated with NI or CN. Trial design SQUINT (NCT03823625) is an open-label, randomized, parallel, non-comparative phase II study designed to assess the efficacy of NI (Arm A) or CN (Arm B) in patients with advanced, metastatic SqCLC. Eligibility requires age ≥ 18 years, histologically confirmed stage IV or recurrent stage IIIB SqCLC, p63+/p40+ and TTF- tumour tissue, availability of PD-L1 status, no prior systemic therapy, ECOG performance status 0-1, adequate organ functions. Key exclusion criteria include concomitant radiotherapy or chemotherapy, prior treatment with immune checkpoint inhibitors, untreated brain metastases, other serious illness or medical condition potentially interfering with the study or with NI administration. Patients are randomly assigned 1:1 to receive N 360 mg Q3W plus I 1 mg/kg Q6W (Arm A) or plus platinum-based chemotherapy up to 6 cycles plus nivolumab 360 mg Q3W (Arm B), and stratified by PD-L1 expression ( Clinical trial identification EudraCT: 2016-004003-31.
