　View Summary

© 2015 The Author(s). Purpose: Ipilimumab is designed to block cytotoxic T-lymphocyte antigen-4 to augment antitumor T cell responses. In studies of predominantly Caucasian patients with advanced melanoma, ipilimumab was associated with durable response, long-term survival benefit, and a manageable safety profile. This phase II study assessed the safety of ipilimumab in Japanese patients with unresectable stage III or IV melanoma. Methods: Patients received ipilimumab 3 mg/kg every 3 weeks for four doses. The database lock for the original analysis was in August 2014. Overall survival, progression-free survival, and data on deaths were based on an updated, follow-up analysis (database lock April 2015). Results: Data are reported from 20 patients. Fifteen patients (75 %) received all four doses of ipilimumab during induction. Twelve patients (60 %) had at least one drug-related adverse event (AE), and no patients discontinued due to a drug-related AE. There were no deaths related to study drug. The most common drug-related AEs were rash (n = 7), pyrexia (n = 3), increased aspartate aminotransferase (AST; n = 3), and increased alanine aminotransferase (ALT; n = 3). Twelve patients (60 %) reported immune-related AEs (irAEs); most frequent were skin (n = 9) and liver (n = 3) disorders. Grade 3 irAEs were ALT and AST elevation (n = 2) and diabetes mellitus (n = 1). Two patients had a partial response and two had stable disease, yielding a 20 % disease control rate. Median overall survival and progression-free survival were 8.71 and 2.74 months, respectively. Conclusion: Ipilimumab 3 mg/kg had a manageable AE profile in this Japanese patient population with clinical outcomes similar to that in Caucasian patients. ClinicalTrials.gov identifier: NCT01990859.

© 2015 The Author(s). Purpose: Ipilimumab (IPI), a monoclonal antibody against immune-checkpoint receptor cytotoxic T lymphocyte antigen-4, is designed to enhance antitumor T cell function. IPI 10 mg/kg plus dacarbazine (DTIC) significantly improved overall survival in a phase 3 study involving predominantly Caucasian patients, with an adverse event (AE) profile similar to that of IPI monotherapy. We conducted a single-arm, phase 2 study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of IPI plus DTIC in Japanese patients. Methods: Previously untreated patients with unresectable stage III or IV melanoma received IPI 10 mg/kg plus DTIC 850 mg/m2 every 3 weeks for four doses (q3w × 4), followed by DTIC q3w × 4 and then IPI every 12 weeks until disease progression or intolerable toxicity. Results: All 15 treated patients reported drug-related AEs, the most common of which were increases in alanine aminotransferase (n = 12, 80 %) and aspartate aminotransferase (n = 11, 73 %). Treatment-related serious AEs were reported in 11 (73 %) patients. Nine patients (60 %) discontinued treatment due to drug-related toxicities. Immune-related AEs (irAEs) were reported in 14 patients (93 %). The most frequent irAEs were liver (n = 12, 80 %) and skin (n = 10, 67 %) toxicities. Five deaths were reported; all were caused by progressive disease. Efficacy evaluation showed one complete response, one partial response and four patients with stable disease. Best overall response rate was 13 % (2/15), and the disease control rate was 40 % (6/15). The study was terminated early due to frequent, high-grade liver toxicities. Conclusions: IPI 10 mg/kg plus DTIC 850 mg/m2 was not considered tolerable in the Japanese patient population. ClinicalTrials.gov identifier: NCT01681212.
