A major investor looks at the odds for IMM !, page-20

Just found this abstract on the ASCO Meeting Library web page.
Not sure if this is the latest news or a previous recap. Perhaps those with better medical insight than I could elaborate ??

Results:Between 04 Mar 19 and 31 Jan 2020, 48 pts were enrolled and evaluated for safety and exposure. The median age was 66 yrs (range 48-84) and 73 % were male. The ECOG was 0 in 50 % and 1 in 50 % of pts, respectively. Pts received a median of 5 (7) and in total 311 (413) pembrolizumab (efti) administrations, respectively. Three pts (6.3 %) discontinued study treatment due to AEs. The most common ( > 10%) adverse events (AEs) being cough (31 %), asthenia (23 %), decreased appetite (19 %), fatigue (19 %), dyspnea (17 %), diarrhea (15 %) and constipation 13 %). From part A all pts (n = 17) were evaluated. Eight pts (47 %) had a partial response (iPR) and six (35 %) had stable disease according to iRECIST representing an ORR (DCR) of 47 % (82 %). irPRs were observed in all different PD-L1 groups ( < 1%; ≥ 1 % ≤49 %; ≥ 50 %). Ten (10; 59 %) pts are still on therapy (8+ months). In part C stage 1 15/18 pts are evaluable and six (40 %) had an iPR to date.Conclusions:Efti in combination with pembrolizumab is safe and shows encouraging antitumor activity in all comer PD-L1 1st line NSCLC and 2nd line HNSCC. Stage 2 has opened for both parts. Clinical trial information: NCT03625323.
