Elvina Almuradova: Second interim analysis confirms the benefit from addition of Pembrolizumab to CRT

Elvina Almuradova, Associate Professor of Oncology at the European Institute of Oncology (IEO), shared a post on LinkedIn:

“Second interim analysis confirms the benefit from addition of Pembrolizumab to CRT!!!
(Phase III ENGOT-cx11/GOG-3047/KEYNOTE-A18 Trial).

Pembrolizumab plus concurrent chemoradiotherapy (CRT), followed by pembrolizumab maintenance resulted;

  • 32% reduction** in disease progression risk.
  • 40% reduction** in second disease progression (PFS2) risk.
  • 33% reduction** in risk of death.

PFS at 3 years 62.7% vs 54.5%.
OS at 3 years 82.6% vs. 74.8%.

Grade ≥3 treatment-related adverse events:

  • 69.1% in the pembrolizumab group vs.
  • 61.3% in the placebo group.

Immune-mediated adverse events:

  • 39% in the pembrolizumab arm vs.
  • 17% in the placebo arm (mostly grade 1 or 2).

Treatment-related deaths:

  • 2 in each arm.
