Abstract
Background
KEYNOTE-199 (NCT02787005) is a multicohort phase 2 study evaluating pembrolizumab in patients with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC). Results from cohorts 4 (C4) and 5 (C5) are presented.
Methods
Eligible patients had not received chemotherapy for mCRPC and had responded to enzalutamide prior to developing resistance as defined by Prostate Cancer Clinical Trials Working Group 3 guidelines. Patients with RECIST-measurable disease were enrolled in C4, and patients with bone-only or bone-predominant disease were enrolled in C5. All patients received pembrolizumab 200 mg every 3 weeks for ≤35 cycles with ongoing enzalutamide until progression, unacceptable toxicity, or withdrawal. The primary end point was objective response rate (ORR) per RECIST v1.1 by blinded independent central review in C4. Secondary end points included disease control rate (DCR), overall survival, and safety in each cohort and both cohorts combined.
Results
A total of 126 patients were treated (C4, n = 81; C5, n = 45). Median age was 72 years (range 43–92), and 87.3% had received ≥6 months of enzalutamide prior to study entry. Confirmed ORR was 12.3% (95% CI 6.1–21.5%) for C4. Median duration of response in C4 was 8.1 months (range, 2.5+ to 15.2), and 5 of these patients experienced an objective response lasting ≥6 months. DCR was 53.1% (95% CI 41.7–64.3%) in C4 and 51.1% (95% CI 35.8–66.3%) in C5. Median overall survival was 17.6 months (95% CI 14.0–22.6) in C4 and 20.8 months (95% CI 14.1–28.9) in C5. Grade ≥3 treatment-related adverse events occurred in 35 patients (27.8%); 2 patients in C4 died from immune-related adverse events (myasthenic syndrome and Guillain-Barré syndrome).
Conclusions
The addition of pembrolizumab to ongoing enzalutamide treatment in patients with mCRPC that progressed on enzalutamide after initial response demonstrated modest antitumor activity with a manageable safety profile.
