Indications

INDICATIONS

Locally Advanced Or Metastatic Urothelial Carcinoma

TECENTRIQ (atezolizumab) is indicated for the treatment of adult patients with locally advanced or metastatic urothelial carcinoma who:

  • are not eligible for cisplatin-containing chemotherapy and whose tumors express PD-L1 (PDL1 stained tumor-infiltrating immune cells [IC] covering ≥ 5% of the tumor area), as determined by an FDA-approved test, or
  • are not eligible for any platinum-containing chemotherapy regardless of PD-L1 status, or
  • have disease progression during or following any platinum-containing chemotherapy, or within 12 months of neoadjuvant or adjuvant chemotherapy

This indication is approved under accelerated approval based on tumor response rate and durability of response. Continued approval for this indication may be contingent upon verification and description of clinical benefit in a confirmatory trial(s) [see Clinical Studies].

Metastatic Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer

  • TECENTRIQ, in combination with bevacizumab, paclitaxel, and carboplatin, is indicated for the first-line treatment of adult patients with metastatic non-squamous non-small cell lung cancer (NSq NSCLC) with no EGFR or ALK genomic tumor aberrations.
  • TECENTRIQ is indicated for the treatment of adult patients with metastatic NSCLC who have disease progression during or following platinum-containing chemotherapy. Patients with EGFR or ALK genomic tumor aberrations should have disease progression on FDA-approved therapy for NSCLC harboring these aberrations prior to receiving TECENTRIQ.

Locally Advanced Or Metastatic Triple-Negative Breast Cancer

TECENTRIQ in combination with paclitaxel protein-bound is indicated for the treatment of adult patients with unresectable locally advanced or metastatic triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) whose tumors express PD-L1 (PD-L1 stained tumor-infiltrating immune cells [IC] of any intensity covering ≥ 1% of the tumor area), as determined by an FDA-approved test.

This indication is approved under accelerated approval based on progression free survival. Continued approval for this indication may be contingent upon verification and description of clinical benefit in a confirmatory trial(s).

Dosage

DOSAGE AND ADMINISTRATION

Patient Selection For Treatment Of Urothelial Carcinoma And Triple-Negative Breast Cancer

Clinical Trials Experience

Because clinical trials are conducted under widely varying conditions, adverse reaction rates observed in the clinical trials of a drug cannot be directly compared to rates in the clinical trials of another drug and may not reflect the rates observed in practice.

The data described in Warnings and Precautions reflect exposure to TECENTRIQ as a single agent in 2616 patients in two randomized, active-controlled studies (POPLAR, OAK) and four open-label, single arm studies (PCD4989g, IMvigor210, BIRCH, FIR) which enrolled 524 patients with metastatic urothelial carcinoma, 1636 patients with metastatic NSCLC, and 456 patients with other tumor types or in combination with paclitaxel and carboplatin with or without bevacizumab in 793 patients with metastatic non-squamous NSCLC from one randomized, open-label, active-controlled trial (IMpower150). TECENTRIQ was administered at a dose of 1200 mg intravenously every 3 weeks in all studies except PCD4989g. Among the 2616 patients who received single-agent TECENTRIQ, 36% were exposed for longer than 6 months and 20% were exposed for longer than 12 months. Among 393 patients who received TECENTRIQ in combination with bevacizumab, paclitaxel, and carboplatin and 400 patients who received TECENTRIQ in combination with paclitaxel and carboplatin in IMpower150, 65% and 54%, respectively, were exposed to TECENTRIQ for longer than 6 months and 36% and 28%, respectively, were exposed to TECENTRIQ for longer than 12 months.

The data described in this section were obtained from one open-label, single arm, multiple cohort study (IMvigor210) and two randomized open-label, active-controlled studies (OAK and IMpower150) in which TECENTRIQ was administered to 429 patients with locally advanced and metastatic urothelial carcinoma and 1002 patients with metastatic NSCLC. In these trials, TECENTRIQ was administered at a dose of 1200 mg intravenously every 3 weeks. This section also describes data from one randomized, placebo-controlled study (IMpassion130) in which TECENTRIQ was administered (at a dose of 840 mg intravenously every 2 weeks) in combination with paclitaxel protein-bound to 452 patients with metastatic TNBC.

Locally Advanced Or Metastatic Urothelial Carcinoma

Cisplatin-Ineligible Patients with Locally Advanced or Metastatic Urothelial Carcinoma

The safety of TECENTRIQ was evaluated in IMvigor 210 (Cohort 1), a multicenter, open-label, single-arm trial that included 119 patients with locally advanced or metastatic urothelial carcinoma who were ineligible for cisplatin-containing chemotherapy and were either previously untreated or had disease progression at least 12 months after neoadjuvant or adjuvant chemotherapy [see Clinical Studies]. Patients received TECENTRIQ 1200 mg intravenously every 3 weeks until either unacceptable toxicity or disease progression. The median duration of exposure was 15 weeks (0 to 87 weeks).

The most common adverse reactions (≥ 20%) were fatigue (52%), decreased appetite (24%), diarrhea (24%), and nausea (22%). The most common Grade 3–4 adverse reactions (≥ 2%) were fatigue, urinary tract infection, anemia, diarrhea, blood creatinine increase, intestinal obstruction, ALT increase, hyponatremia, decreased appetite, sepsis, back/neck pain, renal failure, and hypotension.

Five patients (4.2%) who were treated with TECENTRIQ experienced one of the following events which led to death: sepsis, cardiac arrest, myocardial infarction, respiratory failure, or respiratory distress. One additional patient (0.8%) was experiencing herpetic meningoencephalitis and disease progression at the time of death. TECENTRIQ was discontinued for adverse reactions in 4.2% of patients. The adverse reactions leading to discontinuation were diarrhea/colitis (1.7%), fatigue (0.8%), hypersensitivity (0.8%), and dyspnea (0.8%). Adverse reactions leading to interruption occurred in 35% of patients; the most common (≥ 1%) were intestinal obstruction, fatigue, diarrhea, urinary tract infection, infusion-related reaction, cough, abdominal pain, peripheral edema, pyrexia, respiratory tract infection, upper respiratory tract infection, creatinine increase, decreased appetite, hyponatremia, back pain, pruritus, and venous thromboembolism. Serious adverse reactions occurred in 37% of patients.

Previously Treated Metastatic NSCLC

The safety of TECENTRIQ was evaluated in OAK, a multicenter, international, randomized, open-label trial in patients with metastatic NSCLC who progressed during or following a platinum-containing regimen, regardless of PD-L1 expression [see Clinical Studies].A total of 609 patients received TECENTRIQ 1200 mg intravenously every 3 weeks until unacceptable toxicity, radiographic progression, or clinical progression or docetaxel (n=578) 75 mg/m2 intravenously every 3 weeks until unacceptable toxicity or disease progression. The study excluded patients with active or prior autoimmune disease or with medical conditions that required systemic corticosteroids. The study population characteristics were: median age of 63 years (25 to 85 years), 46% age 65 years or older, 62% male, 71% White, 20% Asian, 68% former smoker, 16% current smoker, and 63% had ECOG performance status of 1. The median duration of exposure was 3.4 months (0 to 26 months) in TECENTRIQ-treated patients and 2.1 months (0 to 23 months) in docetaxel-treated patients.

The most common adverse reactions (≥ 20%) in patients receiving TECENTRIQ were fatigue (44%), decreased appetite (24%), dyspnea (22%), and cough (26%). The most common Grade 3−4 adverse reactions (≥ 2%) were dyspnea, pneumonia, fatigue, and pulmonary embolism.

TECENTRIQ was discontinued due to adverse reactions in 8% of patients. The most common adverse reactions leading to TECENTRIQ discontinuation were fatigue, infections and dyspnea. Fatal adverse reactions occurred in 1.6% of patients; these included pneumonia, sepsis, septic shock, dyspnea, pulmonary hemorrhage, sudden death, myocardial ischemia or renal failure. Adverse reactions leading to interruption of TECENTRIQ occurred in 25% of patients; the most common (> 1%) were pneumonia, liver function test abnormality, dyspnea, fatigue, pyrexia, and back pain. Serious adverse reactions occurred in 33.5% of patients. The most frequent serious adverse reactions (> 1%) were pneumonia, sepsis, dyspnea, pleural effusion, pulmonary embolism, pyrexia and respiratory tract infection.

Table 8 summarizes adverse reactions that occurred in at least 10% of patients treated with TECENTRIQ. Table 9 summarizes laboratory abnormalities worsening from baseline that occurred in ≥ 20% of patients treated with TECENTRIQ.

Metastatic Triple Negative Breast Cancer (TNBC)

The safety of TECENTRIQ in combination with paclitaxel protein-bound was evaluated in IMpassion130, a multicenter, international, randomized, double-blinded placebo-controlled trial in patients with locally advanced or metastatic TNBC who have not received prior chemotherapy for metastatic disease [see Clinical Studies]. Patients received 840 mg of TECENTRIQ (n=452) or placebo (n=438) intravenously followed by paclitaxel protein-bound (100 mg/m2) intravenously. For each 28 day cycle, TECENTRIQ was administered on days 1 and 15 and paclitaxel protein-bound was administered on days 1, 8, and 15 until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. In the safety-evaluable population, the median duration of exposure to TECENTRIQ was 5.5 months (range: 0-32 months) and paclitaxel protein-bound was 5.1 months (range: 0 – 31.5 months) in the TECENTRIQ plus paclitaxel protein-bound arm. The median duration of exposure to placebo was 5.1 months (range: 0-25.1 months) and paclitaxel protein-bound was 5.0 months (range: 0-23.7 months) in the placebo plus paclitaxel protein-bound arm.

The most common adverse reactions (≥20%) in patients receiving TECENTRIQ in combination with paclitaxel protein-bound were alopecia (56%), peripheral neuropathies (47%), fatigue (47%), nausea (46%), diarrhea (33%), anemia (28%), constipation (25%), cough (25%), headache (23%), neutropenia (21%), vomiting (20%), and decreased appetite (20%). The most common Grade 3-4 adverse reactions occurring in ≥2%, were neutropenia (8%), peripheral neuropathies (9%), neutrophil count decreased (4.6%), fatigue (4%), anemia (2.9%), hypokalemia (2.2%), pneumonia (2.2%), and aspartate aminotransferase increased (2.0%).

Adverse reactions leading to discontinuation of TECENTRIQ occurred in 6% (29/452) of patients in the TECENTRIQ and paclitaxel protein-bound arm. The most common adverse reaction leading to TECENTRIQ discontinuation was peripheral neuropathy (<1%). Fatal adverse reactions occurred in 1.3% (6/452) of patients in the TECENTRIQ and paclitaxel protein-bound arm; these included septic shock, mucosal inflammation, auto-immune hepatitis, aspiration, pneumonia, pulmonary embolism. Adverse reactions leading to interruption of TECENTRIQ occurred in 31% of patients; the most common (≥ 2%) were neutropenia, neutrophil count decreased, hyperthyroidism, and pyrexia. Serious adverse reactions occurred in 23% (103/452) of patients. The most frequent serious adverse reactions were pneumonia (2%), urinary tract infection (1%), dyspnea (1%), and pyrexia (1%).

Immune-related adverse reactions requiring systemic corticosteroid therapy occurred in 13% (59/452) of patients in the TECENTRIQ and paclitaxel protein-bound arm.

Table 10 summarizes adverse reactions that occurred in at least 10% of patients treated with TECENTRIQ and paclitaxel protein-bound. Table 11 summarizes selected laboratory abnormalities worsening from baseline that occurred in at least 20% of patients in the TECENTRIQ treated patients.

Immunogenicity

As with all therapeutic proteins, there is a potential for immunogenicity. The detection of antibody formation is highly dependent on the sensitivity and specificity of the assay. Additionally, the observed incidence of antibody (including neutralizing antibody) positivity in an assay may be influenced by several factors including assay methodology, sample handling, timing of sample collection, concomitant medications, and underlying disease. For these reasons, comparison of the incidence of antibodies in the studies described below with the incidence of antibodies in other studies or to other atezolizumab products may be misleading.

Among 565 patients with NSCLC in OAK, 30% tested positive for treatment-emergent anti-drug antibodies (ADA) at one or more post-dose time points. The median onset time to ADA formation was 3 weeks. The ability of these binding ADA to neutralize atezolizumab is unknown. Patients who tested positive for treatment-emergent ADA also had decreased systemic atezolizumab exposure [see CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY]. Exploratory analyses showed that the subset of patients who were ADA positive by week 4 (21%; 118/560) appeared to have less efficacy (effect on overall survival) as compared to patients who tested negative for treatment-emergent ADA by week 4 [see Clinical Studies]. The presence of ADA did not have a clinically significant effect on the incidence or severity of adverse reactions.

Among 275 patients with urothelial carcinoma in IMvigor210 (Cohort 2), 42% tested positive for treatment-emergent ADA at one or more post-dose time points. Among 111 patients in IMvigor210 (Cohort 1), 48% tested positive for treatment-emergent ADA at one or more post-dose time points. Patients who tested positive for treatment-emergent ADA also had decreased systemic atezolizumab exposures. The presence of ADA did not have a clinically significant effect on the incidence or severity of adverse reactions.

Among 364 ADA-evaluable patients with NSCLC who received TECENTRIQ with bevacizumab, paclitaxel and carboplatin in IMpower150, (36% (n=132) tested positive for treatment-emergent ADA at one or more post-dose time points and 83% of these 132 patients tested ADA positive prior to receiving the second dose of atezolizumab. The ability of these binding ADA to neutralize atezolizumab is unknown. Patients who tested positive for treatment-emergent ADA had lower systemic atezolizumab exposure as compared to patients who were ADA negative [see CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY]. The presence of ADA did not increase the incidence or severity of adverse reactions [see Clinical Studies].

Among 434 patients with TNBC in IMpassion130, 13% tested positive for treatment-emergent ADA at one or more post-dose time points. Among 178 patients in PD-L1 positive subgroup with TNBC in IMpassion130, 12% tested positive for treatment-emergent ADA at one or more post-dose time points. Patients who tested positive for treatment-emergent ADA had decreased systemic atezolizumab exposure [see CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY]. There are insufficient numbers of patients in the PD-L1 positive subgroup with ADA to determine whether ADA alters the efficacy of atezolizumab. The presence of ADA did not have a clinically significant effect on the incidence or severity of adverse reactions.

PRECAUTIONS

Immune-Mediated Pneumonitis

TECENTRIQ can cause immune-mediated pneumonitis or interstitial lung disease, defined as requiring use of corticosteroids, including fatal cases. Monitor patients for signs and symptoms of pneumonitis. Evaluate patients with suspected pneumonitis with radiographic imaging. Administer corticosteroids, prednisone 1–2 mg/kg/day or equivalents, followed by a taper for Grade 2 or higher pneumonitis. Withhold or permanently discontinue TECENTRIQ based on the severity [see DOSAGE AND ADMINISTRATION].

In clinical studies enrolling 2616 patients with various cancers who received TECENTRIQ as a single agent [see ADVERSE REACTIONS], pneumonitis occurred in 2.5% of patients, including Grade 3 (0.6%), Grade 4 (0.1%), and Grade 5 (< 0.1%) immune-mediated pneumonitis. The median time to onset of pneumonitis was 3.6 months (3 days to 20.5 months) and median duration of pneumonitis was 1.4 months (1 day to 15.1 months). Pneumonitis resolved in 67% of patients. Pneumonitis led to discontinuation of TECENTRIQ in 0.4% of the 2616 patients. Systemic corticosteroids were required in 1.5% of patients, including 0.8% who received high-dose corticosteroids (prednisone ≥ 40 mg per day or equivalent) for a median duration of 4 days (1 day to 45 days) followed by a corticosteroid taper.

The incidence of pneumonitis in 793 TECENTRIQ-treated patients in IMpower150 was 4.5%, including Grade 3-4 (1.8%) events. Systemic corticosteroids were required in 4% of patients, including 2.8% who received high-dose corticosteroids (prednisone ≥ 40 mg per day or equivalent) for a median duration of 3 days (1 day to 43 days) followed by a corticosteroid taper.

Immune-Mediated Hepatitis

TECENTRIQ can cause liver test abnormalities and immune-mediated hepatitis, defined as requiring use of corticosteroids. Fatal cases have been reported. Monitor patients for signs and symptoms of hepatitis, during and after discontinuation of TECENTRIQ, including clinical chemistry monitoring. Administer corticosteroids, prednisone 1–2 mg/kg/day or equivalents, followed by a taper for Grade 2 or higher elevations of ALT, AST and/or total bilirubin. Interrupt or permanently discontinue TECENTRIQ based on the severity [see DOSAGE AND ADMINISTRATION].

In clinical studies enrolling 2616 patients with various cancers who received TECENTRIQ [see ADVERSE REACTIONS], hepatitis occurred in 9% of patients, including Grade 3 (2.3%), Grade 4 (0.6%), and Grade 5 (< 0.1%). The median time to onset of hepatitis was 1.4 months (1 day to 25.8 months) and median duration was 24 days (1 day to 13 months). Hepatitis resolved in 71% of patients. Hepatitis led to discontinuation of TECENTRIQ in 0.4% of 2616 patients. Systemic corticosteroids were required in 2% of the patients, with 1.3% requiring high-dose corticosteroids for a median duration of 3 days (1 day to 35 days) followed by a corticosteroid taper.

The incidence of hepatitis in 793 TECENTRIQ-treated patients in IMpower150 was 12.1%, including Grade 3-4 (4.0%) events. Systemic corticosteroids were required in 3.8% of the patients, with 2.6% requiring high-dose corticosteroids for a median duration of 7 days (1 day to 68 days) followed by a corticosteroid taper.

Immune-Mediated Colitis

TECENTRIQ can cause immune-mediated colitis or diarrhea, defined as requiring use of corticosteroids. Monitor patients for signs and symptoms of diarrhea or colitis. Withhold treatment with TECENTRIQ for Grade 2 or 3 diarrhea or colitis. If symptoms persist for longer than 5 days or recur, administer corticosteroids, prednisone 1–2 mg/kg/day or equivalents, followed by a taper for Grade 2 diarrhea or colitis. Interrupt or permanently discontinue TECENTRIQ based on the severity [see DOSAGE AND ADMINISTRATION and ADVERSE REACTIONS].

In clinical studies enrolling 2616 patients with various cancers who received TECENTRIQ as a single agent [see ADVERSE REACTIONS], diarrhea or colitis occurred in 20%, including Grade 3 (1.4%) events. The median time to onset of diarrhea or colitis was 1.5 months (1 day to 41 months). Diarrhea and colitis resolved in 85% of the patients. Diarrhea or colitis led to discontinuation of TECENTRIQ in 0.2% of 2616 patients. Systemic corticosteroids were required in 1.1% of patients and high-dose corticosteroids was required in 0.4% patients with a median duration of 3 days (1 day to 11 days) followed by a corticosteroid taper.

The incidence of diarrhea or colitis in 793 TECENTRIQ-treated patients in IMpower150 was 27%, including Grade 3-4 (4.3%) events. Systemic corticosteroids were required in 4.5% of patients and high-dose corticosteroids was required in 3.2% patients with a median duration of 5 days (1 day to 103 days) followed by a corticosteroid taper.

Immune-Mediated Endocrinopathies

TECENTRIQ can cause immune-mediated endocrinopathies, including thyroid disorders, adrenal insufficiency, and type 1 diabetes mellitus, including diabetic ketoacidosis, and hypophysitis/hypopituitarism.

Thyroid Disorders

Monitor thyroid function prior to and periodically during treatment with TECENTRIQ. Initiate hormone replacement therapy or medical management of hyperthyroidism as clinically indicated. Continue TECENTRIQ for hypothyroidism and interrupt for hyperthyroidism based on the severity [see DOSAGE AND ADMINISTRATION].

In clinical studies enrolling 2616 patients who received TECENTRIQ [see ADVERSE REACTIONS], hypothyroidism occurred in 4.6% of patients, and 3.8% of patients required the use of hormone replacement therapy. Hyperthyroidism occurred in 1.6% of patients. One patient experienced acute thyroiditis.

The incidence of hypothyroidism in 793 TECENTRIQ-treated patients in IMpower150 was 11.3%, and 8.6% of patients required hormone replacement therapy. Hyperthyroidism occurred in 3.4% of patients and 0.1% experienced thyroiditis.

Adrenal Insufficiency

Monitor patients for clinical signs and symptoms of adrenal insufficiency. For Grade 2 or higher adrenal insufficiency, initiate prednisone 1 to 2 mg/kg/day or equivalents, followed by a taper and hormone replacement as clinically indicated. Interrupt TECENTRIQ based on the severity [see DOSAGE AND ADMINISTRATION].

In clinical studies enrolling 2616 patients who received TECENTRIQ as a single agent, adrenal insufficiency occurred in 0.4% of patients, including Grade 3 (< 0.1%) adrenal insufficiency. Median time to onset was 5.7 months (3 days to 19 months). There was insufficient information to adequately characterize the median duration of adrenal insufficiency. Adrenal insufficiency resolved in 27% of patients. Systemic corticosteroids were required in 0.3% of 2616 patients, including 0.1% who required high-dose corticosteroids.

The incidence of adrenal insufficiency in 793 TECENTRIQ-treated patients in Study IMpower150 was 0.8%.

Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus

Monitor patients for hyperglycemia or other signs and symptoms of diabetes. Initiate treatment with insulin as clinically indicated. Interrupt TECENTRIQ based on the severity [see DOSAGE AND ADMINISTRATION].

In clinical studies enrolling 2616 patients who received TECENTRIQ as a single agent, type 1 diabetes mellitus occurred in < 0.1% of patients. Insulin was required in one patient. The incidence of new onset diabetes mellitus in 698 TECENTRIQ-treated patients in Study IMpower150 was 0.1%

Hypophysitis

For Grade 2 or higher hypophysitis, initiate prednisone 1−2 mg/kg/day or equivalents, followed by a taper and hormone replacement therapy as clinically indicated. Interrupt TECENTRIQ based on the severity [see DOSAGE AND ADMINISTRATION].

In clinical studies enrolling 2616 patients who received TECENTRIQ as a single agent, Grade 2 hypophysitis occurred in < 0.1% of patients.

The incidence of hypophysitis in 793 TECENTRIQ-treated patients in IMpower150 was 0.4%, including Grade 2 (0.1%) and Grade 3 (0.1%) events.

Other Immune-Mediated Adverse Reactions

TECENTRIQ can cause severe and fatal immune-mediated adverse reactions. These immune- mediated reactions may involve any organ system. While immune-mediated reactions usually manifest during treatment with TECENTRIQ, immune-mediated adverse reactions can also manifest after discontinuation of TECENTRIQ.

For suspected Grade 2 immune-mediated adverse reactions, exclude other causes and initiate corticosteroids as clinically indicated. For severe (Grade 3 or 4) adverse reactions, administer corticosteroids, prednisone 1 to 2 mg/kg/day or equivalents, followed by a taper. Interrupt or permanently discontinue TECENTRIQ, based on the severity of the reaction [see DOSAGE AND ADMINISTRATION].

If uveitis occurs in combination with other immune-mediated adverse reactions, evaluate for Vogt-Koyanagi-Harada syndrome, which has been observed with other products in this class and may require treatment with systemic steroids to reduce the risk of permanent vision loss. The following clinically significant, immune-mediated adverse reactions occurred at an incidence of < 1% in 2616 patients who received TECENTRIQ or were reported in other products in this class [see ADVERSE REACTIONS]:

Cardiac: myocarditis

Dermatologic: bullous dermatitis, pemphigoid, erythema multiforme, Stevens Johnson Syndrome (SJS)/toxic epidermal necrolysis (TEN).

Gastrointestinal: pancreatitis, including increases in serum amylase or lipase levels

General: systemic inflammatory response syndrome, histiocytic necrotizing lymphadenitis

Hematological: autoimmune hemolytic anemia, immune thrombocytopenic purpura.

Musculoskeletal: myositis, rhabdomyolysis.

Neurological: Guillain-Barre syndrome, myasthenia syndrome/myasthenia gravis, demyelination, immune-related meningoencephalitis, aseptic meningitis, encephalitis, facial and abducens nerve paresis, polymyalgia rheumatica, autoimmune neuropathy, and Vogt-Koyanagi- Harada syndrome.

Ophthalmological: uveitis, iritis.

Renal: nephrotic syndrome, nephritis.

Vascular: vasculitis

Infections

TECENTRIQ can cause severe infections including fatal cases. Monitor patients for signs and symptoms of infection. For Grade 3 or higher infections, withhold TECENTRIQ and resume once clinically stable [see DOSAGE AND ADMINISTRATION and ADVERSE REACTIONS].

In clinical studies enrolling 2616 patients with various cancers who received TECENTRIQ [see ADVERSE REACTIONS], infections occurred in 42% of patients, including Grade 3 (8.7%), Grade 4 (1.5%), and Grade 5 (1%). In patients with urothelial carcinoma, the most common Grade 3 or higher infection was urinary tract infections, occurring in 6.5% of patients. In patients with NSCLC, the most common Grade 3 or higher infection was pneumonia, occurring in 3.8% of patients.

The incidence of infections in 793 TECENTRIQ-treated patients in IMpower150 was 50.1%, including Grade 3 (12%), Grade 4 (1.9%), and Grade 5 (0.4%). The most common Grade 3 or higher infection was pneumonia, occurring in 4.8% of patients.

Infusion-Related Reactions

TECENTRIQ can cause severe or life-threatening infusion-related reactions. Monitor for signs and symptoms of infusion-related reactions. Interrupt, slow the rate of, or permanently discontinue TECENTRIQ based on the severity [see DOSAGE AND ADMINISTRATION]. For Grade 1 or 2 infusion-related reactions, consider using pre-medications with subsequent doses.

In clinical studies enrolling 2616 patients with various cancers who received TECENTRIQ as a single agent [see ADVERSE REACTIONS], infusion-related reactions occurred in 1.3% of patients, including Grade 3 (0.2%). The incidence of infusion-related reactions in 793 TECENTRIQ-treated patients in IMpower150 was 3.8%, including Grade 3-4 (0.8%).

Embryo-Fetal Toxicity

Based on its mechanism of action, TECENTRIQ can cause fetal harm when administered to a pregnant woman. There are no available data on the use of TECENTRIQ in pregnant women. Animal studies have demonstrated that inhibition of the PD-L1/PD-1 pathway can lead to increased risk of immune-related rejection of the developing fetus resulting in fetal death.

Verify pregnancy status of females of reproductive potential prior to initiating TECENTRIQ. Advise females of reproductive potential of the potential risk to a fetus. Advise females of reproductive potential to use effective contraception during treatment with TECENTRIQ and for at least 5 months after the last dose [see Use In Specific Populations].

Patient Counseling Information

Advise the patient to read the FDA-approved patient labeling (Medication Guide).

Immune-Mediated Adverse Reactions

Inform patients of the risk of immune-mediated adverse reactions that may require corticosteroid treatment and interruption or discontinuation of TECENTRIQ, including:

  • Pneumonitis: Advise patients to contact their healthcare provider immediately for any new or worsening cough, chest pain, or shortness of breath [see WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS].
  • Hepatitis: Advise patients to contact their healthcare provider immediately for jaundice, severe nausea or vomiting, pain on the right side of abdomen, lethargy, or easy bruising or bleeding [see WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS].
  • Colitis: Advise patients to contact their healthcare provider immediately for diarrhea, blood or mucus in stools, or severe abdominal pain [see WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS].
  • Endocrinopathies: Advise patients to contact their healthcare provider immediately for signs or symptoms of hypophysitis, hyperthyroidism, hypothyroidism, adrenal insufficiency, or type 1 diabetes mellitus, including diabetic ketoacidosis [see WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS].
  • Other Immune-Mediated Adverse Reactions: Advise patients to contact their healthcare provider immediately for signs or symptoms of other potential immune-mediated adverse reactions [see WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS].
Infections

Advise patients to contact their healthcare provider immediately for signs or symptoms of infection [see WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS].

Infusion-Related Reactions

Advise patients to contact their healthcare provider immediately for signs or symptoms of infusion-related reactions [see WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS]. Embryo-Fetal Toxicity Advise females of reproductive potential that TECENTRIQ can cause harm to a fetus and to inform their healthcare provider of a known or suspected pregnancy [see WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS, Use In Specific Populations].

Advise females of reproductive potential to use effective contraception during treatment and for at least 5 months after the last dose of TECENTRIQ [see Use In Specific Populations].

Lactation

Advise female patients not to breastfeed while taking TECENTRIQ and for at least 5 months after the last dose [see Use In Specific Populations].

Nonclinical Toxicology

Carcinogenesis, Mutagenesis, Impairment Of Fertility

No studies have been performed to test the potential of atezolizumab for carcinogenicity or genotoxicity.

Animal fertility studies have not been conducted with atezolizumab; however, an assessment of the male and female reproductive organs was included in a 26-week, repeat-dose toxicity study in cynomolgus monkeys. Weekly administration of atezolizumab to female monkeys at the highest dose tested caused an irregular menstrual cycle pattern and a lack of newly formed corpora lutea in the ovaries. This effect occurred at an estimated AUC approximately 6 times the AUC in patients receiving the recommended dose and was reversible. There was no effect on the male monkey reproductive organs.

Use In Specific Populations

Pregnancy

Risk Summary

Based on its mechanism of action [see CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY], TECENTRIQ can cause fetal harm when administered to a pregnant woman. There are no available data on the use of TECENTRIQ in pregnant women.

Animal studies have demonstrated that inhibition of the PD-L1/PD-1 pathway can lead to increased risk of immune-related rejection of the developing fetus resulting in fetal death (see Data). Advise females of reproductive potential of the potential risk to a fetus.

In the U.S. general population, the estimated background risk of major birth defects and miscarriage in clinically recognized pregnancies is 2% to 4% and 15% to 20%, respectively.

Data

Animal Data

Animal reproduction studies have not been conducted with TECENTRIQ to evaluate its effect on reproduction and fetal development. A literature-based assessment of the effects on reproduction demonstrated that a central function of the PD-L1/PD-1 pathway is to preserve pregnancy by maintaining maternal immune tolerance to a fetus. Blockage of PD-L1 signaling has been shown in murine models of pregnancy to disrupt tolerance to a fetus and to result in an increase in fetal loss; therefore, potential risks of administering TECENTRIQ during pregnancy include increased rates of abortion or stillbirth. As reported in the literature, there were no malformations related to the blockade of PD-L1/PD-1 signaling in the offspring of these animals; however, immune-mediated disorders occurred in PD-1 and PD-L1 knockout mice. Based on its mechanism of action, fetal exposure to atezolizumab may increase the risk of developing immune-mediated disorders or altering the normal immune response.

Lactation

Risk Summary

There is no information regarding the presence of atezolizumab in human milk, the effects on the breastfed infant, or the effects on milk production. As human IgG is excreted in human milk, the potential for absorption and harm to the infant is unknown. Because of the potential for serious adverse reactions in breastfed infants from TECENTRIQ, advise women not to breastfeed during treatment and for at least 5 months after the last dose.

Females And Males Of Reproductive Potential

Pregnancy Testing

Verify pregnancy status in females of reproductive potential prior to initiating TECENTRIQ [see Pregnancy].

Contraception

Females

Based on its mechanism of action, TECENTRIQ can cause fetal harm when administered to a pregnant woman [see Pregnancy]. Advise females of reproductive potential to use effective contraception during treatment with TECENTRIQ and for at least 5 months following the last dose.

Infertility

Females

Based on animal studies, TECENTRIQ may impair fertility in females of reproductive potential while receiving treatment [see Nonclinical Toxicology].

Pediatric Use

The safety and effectiveness of TECENTRIQ have not been established in pediatric patients.

Geriatric Use

Of the 919 patients treated with TECENTRIQ as a single-agent in IMvigor210 (Cohort 2) and OAK, 50% were 65 years or older. Of the 400 patients randomized to TECENTRIQ in combination with bevacizumab, paclitaxel, and carboplatin in IMpower150, 46% were 65 years or older and 9% were 75 years or older. No overall differences in safety or efficacy were observed between patients 65 years or older and younger patients in IMvigor210 (Cohort 2), OAK, and IMpower150.

Of the 119 cisplatin-ineligible patients with urothelial carcinoma treated with TECENTRIQ as a single-agent in IMvigor210 (Cohort 1), 83% were 65 years or older and 41% were 75 years or older. No overall differences in safety or efficacy were observed between these patients and younger patients.

Of the 452 patients with TNBC treated with TECENTRIQ in combination with paclitaxel protein-bound in IMpassion130, 23% were 65 years or older. No overall differences in safety or efficacy were observed between patients ≥ 65 years of age and younger patients.

Overdosage & Contraindications

OVERDOSE

There is no information on overdose with TECENTRIQ.

CONTRAINDICATIONS

None.

Clinical Pharmacology

CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY

Mechanism Of Action

PD-L1 may be expressed on tumor cells and/or tumor infiltrating immune cells and can contribute to the inhibition of the anti-tumor immune response in the tumor microenvironment. Binding of PD-L1 to the PD-1 and B7.1 receptors found on T cells and antigen presenting cells suppresses cytotoxic T-cell activity, T-cell proliferation and cytokine production.

Atezolizumab is a monoclonal antibody that binds to PD-L1 and blocks its interactions with both PD-1 and B7.1 receptors. This releases the PD-L1/PD-1 mediated inhibition of the immune response, including activation of the anti-tumor immune response without inducing antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity. In syngeneic mouse tumor models, blocking PD-L1 activity resulted in decreased tumor growth.

Pharmacokinetics

Patients’ exposure to atezolizumab increased dose proportionally over the dose range of 1 mg/kg to 20 mg/kg, including a dose of 1200 mg administered every 3 weeks. The clearance (CV%) was 0.20 L/day (29%), the volume of distribution at steady state was 6.9 L, and the terminal half-life was 27 days. Steady state was achieved after 6 to 9 weeks following multiple doses. The systemic accumulation ratio for every 2 weeks administration and every 3 weeks administration was 3.3 and 1.9 fold, respectively. Atezolizumab clearance was found to decrease over time, with a mean maximal reduction (CV%) from baseline value of approximately 17% (41%); however, the decrease in clearance was not considered clinically relevant.

Specific Populations

Age (21 to 89 years), body weight, sex, albumin levels, tumor burden, region or race, mild or moderate renal impairment [estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) 30 to 89 mL/min/1.73 m2], mild hepatic impairment (bilirubin ≤ ULN and AST > ULN or bilirubin > 1 to 1.5 × ULN and any AST), level of PD-L1 expression, or performance status had no clinically significant effect on the systemic exposure of atezolizumab. In OAK, IMpower150 (TECENTRIQ, bevacizumab, paclitaxel, carboplatin arm only), and IMpassion130 (TECENTRIQ and paclitaxel protein-bound) atezolizumab clearance in patients who tested positive for treatment-emergent anti-drug antibodies (ADA) was 25%, 18%, and 22% higher, respectively, as compared to clearance in patients who tested negative for treatment-emergent ADA.

The effect of severe renal impairment or moderate or severe hepatic impairment on the pharmacokinetics of atezolizumab is unknown.

Drug Interaction Studies

The drug interaction potential of atezolizumab is unknown.

Animal Toxicology And/Or Pharmacology

In animal models, inhibition of PD-L1/PD-1 signaling increased the severity of some infections and enhanced inflammatory responses. M. tuberculosis-infected PD-1 knockout mice exhibit markedly decreased survival compared with wild-type controls, which correlated with increased bacterial proliferation and inflammatory responses in these animals. PD-L1 and PD-1 knockout mice and mice receiving PD-L1 blocking antibody have also shown decreased survival following infection with lymphocytic choriomeningitis virus.

Clinical Studies

Locally Advanced Or Metastatic Urothelial Carcinoma

Cisplatin-Ineligible Patients With Locally Advanced Or Metastatic Urothelial Carcinoma

The efficacy of TECENTRIQ was investigated in IMvigor210 (Cohort 1) (NCT02951767), a multicenter, open-label, single-arm trial that included 119 patients with locally advanced or metastatic urothelial carcinoma who were ineligible for cisplatin-containing chemotherapy and were either previously untreated or had disease progression at least 12 months after neoadjuvant or adjuvant chemotherapy. Patients were considered cisplatin-ineligible if they met any one of the following criteria at study entry: impaired renal function [creatinine clearance (CLcr) of 30 to 59 mL/min], Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status (PS) of 2, hearing loss of ≥ 25 decibels (dB) at two contiguous frequencies, or Grade 2-4 peripheral neuropathy. This study excluded patients who had: a history of autoimmune disease; active or corticosteroid-dependent brain metastases; administration of a live, attenuated vaccine within 28 days prior to enrollment; or administration of systemic immunostimulatory agents within 6 weeks or systemic immunosuppressive medications within 2 weeks prior to enrollment. Patients received TECENTRIQ 1200 mg as an intravenous infusion every 3 weeks until unacceptable toxicity or disease progression. Tumor response assessments were conducted every 9 weeks for the first 54 weeks and every 12 weeks thereafter. Major efficacy outcome measures included confirmed overall response rate (ORR) as assessed by independent review facility (IRF) using Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST v1.1), duration of response (DoR) and overall survival (OS).

In this study, the median age was 73 years, 81% were male, and 91% were White. Thirty-five percent of patients had non-bladder urothelial carcinoma and 66% had visceral metastases. Eighty percent of patients had an ECOG PS of 0 or 1. Reasons for ineligibility for cisplatincontaining chemotherapy were: 70% had impaired renal function, 20% had an ECOG PS of 2, 14% had a hearing loss of ≥ 25dB, and 6% had Grade 2-4 peripheral neuropathy at baseline. Twenty percent of patients had disease progression following prior platinum-containing neoadjuvant or adjuvant chemotherapy.

Tumor specimens were evaluated prospectively using the VENTANA PD-L1 (SP142) Assay at a central laboratory, and the results were used to define subgroups for pre-specified analyses. Of the 119 patients, 27% were classified as having PD-L1 expression of ≥ 5% (defined as PD-L1 stained tumor-infiltrating immune cells [IC] covering ≥ 5% of the tumor area). The remaining 73% of patients were classified as having PD-L1 expression of < 5% (PD-L1 stained tumor-infiltrating IC covering < 5% of the tumor area).

Among the 32 patients with PD-L1 expression of ≥ 5%, median age was 67 years, 81% were male, 19% female, and 88% were White. Twenty-eight percent of patients had non-bladder urothelial carcinoma and 56% had visceral metastases. Seventy-two percent of patients had an ECOG PS of 0 or 1. Reasons for ineligibility for cisplatin-containing chemotherapy were: 66% had impaired renal function, 28% had an ECOG PS of 2, 16% had a hearing loss ≥ 25 dB, and 9% had Grade 2-4 peripheral neuropathy at baseline. Thirty-one percent of patients had disease progression following prior platinum-containing neoadjuvant or adjuvant chemotherapy.

Confirmed ORR in all patients and the two PD-L1 subgroups are summarized in Table 12. The median follow-up time for this study was 14.4 months. In 24 patients with disease progression following neoadjuvant or adjuvant therapy, the ORR was 33% (95% CI: 16%, 55%).

IMvigor130 (NCT02807636) is an ongoing multicenter, randomized study in previously untreated patients with metastatic urothelial carcinoma who are eligible for platinum-containing chemotherapy. The study contains three arms: TECENTRIQ monotherapy, TECENTRIQ with platinum-based chemotherapy (i.e., cisplatin or carboplatin with gemcitabine), and platinum-based chemotherapy alone (comparator). Both cisplatin-eligible and cisplatin-ineligible patients are included in the study. Tumor specimens were evaluated prospectively using the VENTANA PD-L1 (SP142) Assay at a central laboratory. The independent Data Monitoring Committee (iDMC) for the study conducted a review of early data and found that patients classified as having PD-L1 expression of <5% when treated with TECENTRIQ monotherapy had decreased survival compared to those who received platinum-based chemotherapy. The iDMC recommended closure of the monotherapy arm to further accrual of patients with low PD-L1 expression, however, no other changes were recommended for the study, including any change of therapy for patients who had already been randomized to and were receiving treatment in the monotherapy arm.

Previously Treated Locally Advanced Or Metastatic Urothelial Carcinoma

The efficacy of TECENTRIQ was investigated in IMvigor210 (Cohort 2) (NCT02108652), a multicenter, open-label, single-arm trial that included 310 patients with locally advanced or metastatic urothelial carcinoma who had disease progression during or following a platinum-containing chemotherapy regimen or who had disease progression within 12 months of treatment with a platinum-containing neoadjuvant or adjuvant chemotherapy regimen. This study excluded patients who had: a history of autoimmune disease, active or corticosteroid-dependent brain metastases, administration of a live, attenuated vaccine within 28 days prior to enrollment, or administration of systemic immunostimulatory agents within 6 weeks or systemic immunosuppressive medications within 2 weeks prior to enrollment. Patients received TECENTRIQ 1200 mg intravenously every 3 weeks until unacceptable toxicity or either radiographic or clinical progression. Tumor response assessments were conducted every 9 weeks for the first 54 weeks and every 12 weeks thereafter. Major efficacy outcome measures included confirmed ORR as assessed by IRF using RECIST v1.1 and DoR.

In this study, the median age was 66 years, 78% were male, 91% of patients were White. Twenty-six percent had non-bladder urothelial carcinoma and 78% of patients had visceral metastases. Sixty-two percent of patients had an ECOG PS of 1 and 35% of patients had a baseline CLcr < 60 mL/min. Nineteen percent of patients had disease progression following prior platinum-containing neoadjuvant or adjuvant chemotherapy. Forty-one percent of patients had received 2 or more prior systemic regimens in the metastatic setting. Seventy-three percent of patients received prior cisplatin, 26% had prior carboplatin, and 1% were treated with other platinum-based regimens.

Tumor specimens were evaluated prospectively using the VENTANA PD-L1 (SP142) Assay at a central laboratory and the results were used to define subgroups for pre-specified analyses. Of the 310 patients, 32% were classified as having PD-L1 expression of ≥ 5%. The remaining 68% of patients were classified as having PD-L1 expression of < 5%.

Confirmed ORR and median DOR in all patients and the two PD-L1 subgroups are summarized in Table 13. The median follow-up time for this study was 32.9 months. In 59 patients with disease progression following neoadjuvant or adjuvant therapy, the ORR was 22.0% (95% CI: 12.3%, 34.7%).

Metastatic Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer

Metastatic Chemotherapy-Naive Non-Squamous NSCLC

The efficacy of TECENTRIQ with bevacizumab, paclitaxel, and carboplatin was evaluated in IMpower150 (NCT02366143), a multicenter, international, randomized (1:1:1), open-label trial in 1202 patients with metastatic non-squamous NSCLC. IMpower150 enrolled patients with stage IV non-squamous NSCLC who had received no prior chemotherapy for metastatic disease, but could have received prior EGFR or ALK kinase inhibitor if appropriate, regardless of PD-L1 or T-effector gene (tGE) status and ECOG performance status 0 or 1. The trial excluded patients with a history of autoimmune disease, administration of a live attenuated vaccine within 28 days prior to randomization, active or untreated CNS metastases, administration of systemic immunostimulatory agents within 4 weeks or systemic immunosuppressive medications within 2 weeks prior to randomization, or clear tumor infiltration into the thoracic great vessels or clear cavitation of pulmonary lesions as seen on imaging.

Randomization was stratified by sex, presence of liver metastases, and PD-L1 expression status on tumor cells (TC) and tumor-infiltrating immune cells (IC) as follows: TC3 and any IC vs. TC0/1/2 and IC2/3 vs. TC0/1/2 and IC0/1. Patients were randomized to one of the following three treatment arms.

  • Arm A: TECENTRIQ 1200 mg, paclitaxel 175 mg/m² or 200 mg/m² and carboplatin AUC 6 on Day 1 of each 21-day cycle for a maximum of 4 or 6 cycles
  • Arm B: TECENTRIQ 1200 mg, bevacizumab 15 mg/kg, paclitaxel 175 mg/m² or 200 mg/m², and carboplatin AUC 6 on Day 1 of each 21-day cycle for a maximum of 4 or 6 cycles
  • Arm C: bevacizumab 15 mg/kg, paclitaxel 175 mg/m² or 200 mg/m², and carboplatin AUC 6 on Day 1 of each 21-day cycle for a maximum of 4 or 6 cycles

Patients who had not experienced disease progression following the completion or cessation of platinum-based chemotherapy, received:

  • Arm A: TECENTRIQ 1200 mg intravenously on Day 1 of each 21-day cycle until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity
  • Arm B: TECENTRIQ 1200 mg and bevacizumab 15 mg/kg intravenously on Day 1 of each 21-day cycle until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity
  • Arm C: bevacizumab 15 mg/kg intravenously on Day 1 of each 21-day cycle until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity

Tumor assessments were conducted every 6 weeks for the first 48 weeks following Cycle 1, Day 1 and then every 9 weeks thereafter. Tumor specimens were evaluated prior to randomization for PD-L1 tumor expression using the VENTANA PD-L1 (SP142) assay at a central laboratory. Tumor tissue was collected at baseline for expression of tGE signature and evaluation was performed using a clinical trial assay in a central laboratory prior to the analysis of efficacy outcome measures.

The major efficacy outcome measures for comparison of Arms B and C were progression free survival (PFS) by RECIST v1.1 in the tGE-WT (patients with high expression of T-effector gene signature [tGE], excluding those with EGFR-and ALK-positive NSCLC [WT]) and in the ITTWT subpopulations and overall survival (OS) in the ITT-WT subpopulation. Additional efficacy outcome measures for comparison of Arms B and C or Arms A and C were PFS and OS in the ITT population, OS in the tGE-WT subpopulation, and ORR/DoR in the tGE-WT and ITT-WT subpopulations.

A total of 1202 patients were enrolled across the three arms of whom 1045 were in the ITT-WT subpopulation and 447 were in the tGE-WT subpopulation. The demographic information is limited to the 800 patients enrolled in Arms B and C where efficacy has been demonstrated. The median age was 63 years (range: 31 to 90), and 60% of patients were male. The majority of patients were White (82%), 13% of patients were Asian, 10% were Hispanic, and 2% of patients were Black. Clinical sites in Asia (enrolling 13% of the study population) received paclitaxel at a dose of 175 mg/m2 while the remaining 87% received paclitaxel at a dose of 200 mg/m2. Approximately 14% of patients had liver metastases at baseline, and most patients were current or previous smokers (80%). Baseline ECOG performance status was 0 (43%) or 1 (57%). PDL1 was TC3 and any IC in 12%, TC0/1/2 and IC2/3 in 13%, and TC0/1/2 and IC0/1 in 75%. The demographics for the 696 patients in the ITT-WT subpopulation were similar to the ITT population except for the absence of patients with EGFR-or ALK-positive NSCLC.

The trial demonstrated a statistically significant improvement in PFS between Arms B and C in both the tGE-WT and ITT-WT subpopulations, but did not demonstrate a significant difference for either subpopulation between Arms A and C based on the final PFS analyses. In the interim analysis of OS, a statistically significant improvement was observed for Arm B compared to Arm C, but not for Arm A compared to Arm C. Efficacy results for the ITT-WT subpopulation are presented in Table 14 and Figure 1.

Exploratory analyses showed that the subset of patients in the four drug regimen arm who were ADA positive by week 4 (30%) appeared to have similar efficacy (effect on overall survival) as compared to patients who tested negative for treatment-emergent ADA by week 4 (70%) [see ADVERSE REACTIONS, CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY]. In an exploratory analysis, propensity score matching was conducted to compare ADA positive patients in the TECENTRIQ, bevacizumab, paclitaxel, and carboplatin arm with a matched population in the bevacizumab, paclitaxel, and carboplatin arm. Similarly ADA negative patients in the TECENTRIQ, bevacizumab, paclitaxel, and carboplatin arm were compared with a matched population in the bevacizumab, paclitaxel, and carboplatin arm. Propensity score matching factors were: baseline sum of longest tumor size (BSLD), baseline ECOG, baseline albumin, baseline LDH, sex, tobacco history, metastatic site, TC level, and IC level. The hazard ratio comparing the ADA-positive subgroup with its matched control was 0.69 (95% CI: 0.44, 1.07). The hazard ratio comparing the ADA-negative subgroup with its matched control was 0.64 (95% CI: 0.46, 0.90).

Previously Treated Metastatic NSCLC

The efficacy of TECENTRIQ was evaluated in a multicenter, international, randomized (1:1), open-label study (OAK; NCT02008227) conducted in patients with locally advanced or metastatic NSCLC whose disease progressed during or following a platinum-containing regimen. Patients with a history of autoimmune disease, symptomatic or corticosteroid-dependent brain metastases, or requiring systemic immunosuppression within 2 weeks prior to enrollment were ineligible. Randomization was stratified by PD-L1 expression tumor-infiltrating immune cells (IC), the number of prior chemotherapy regimens (1 vs. 2), and histology (squamous vs. non-squamous).

Patients were randomized to receive TECENTRIQ 1200 mg intravenously every 3 weeks until unacceptable toxicity, radiographic progression, or clinical progression or docetaxel 75 mg/m2 intravenously every 3 weeks until unacceptable toxicity or disease progression. Tumor assessments were conducted every 6 weeks for the first 36 weeks and every 9 weeks thereafter. The major efficacy outcome measure was overall survival (OS) in the first 850 randomized patients and OS in the subgroup of patients with PD-L1-expressing tumors (defined as ≥ 1% PDL1 expression on tumor cells [TC] or immune cells [IC]). Additional efficacy outcome measures were OS in all randomized patients (n = 1225), OS in subgroups based on PD-L1 expression, overall response rate (ORR), and progression free survival as assessed by the investigator per RECIST v.1.1.

Among the first 850 randomized patients, the median age was 64 years (33 to 85 years) and 47% were ≥ 65 years old; 61% were male; 70% were White and 21% were Asian; 15% were current smokers and 67% were former smokers; and 37% had baseline ECOG PS of 0 and 63% had a baseline ECOG PS of 1. Nearly all (94%) had metastatic disease, 74% had non-squamous histology, 75% had received only one prior platinum-based chemotherapy regimen, and 55% of patients had PD-L1-expressing tumors.

Efficacy results are presented in Table 15 and Figure 2.

Tumor specimens were evaluated prospectively using the VENTANA PD-L1 (SP142) Assay at a central laboratory and the results were used to define the PD-L1 expression subgroups for prespecified analyses. Of the 850 patients, 16% were classified as having high PD-L1 expression, defined as having PD-L1 expression on ≥ 50% of TC or ≥ 10% of IC. In an exploratory efficacy subgroup analysis of OS based on PD-L1 expression, the hazard ratio was 0.41 (95% CI: 0.27, 0.64) in the high PD-L1 expression subgroup and 0.82 (95% CI: 0.68, 0.98) in patients who did not have high PD-L1 expression.

Exploratory analyses showed that the subset of patients who were ADA positive by week 4 (21%) appeared to have less efficacy (effect on overall survival) as compared to patients who tested negative for treatment-emergent ADA by week 4 (79%) [see ADVERSE REACTIONS, CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY]. ADA positive patients by week 4 appeared to have similar OS compared to docetaxel-treated patients. In an exploratory analysis, propensity score matching was conducted to compare ADA positive patients in the atezolizumab arm with a matched population in the docetaxel arm and ADA negative patients in the atezolizumab arm with a matched population in the docetaxel arm. Propensity score matching factors were: baseline sum of longest tumor size (BSLD), baseline ECOG, histology (squamous vs. non-squamous), baseline albumin, baseline LDH, gender, tobacco history, metastases status (advanced or local), metastatic site, TC level, and IC level. The hazard ratio comparing the ADA positive subgroup with its matched control was 0.89 (95% CI: 0.61, 1.3). The hazard ratio comparing the ADA negative subgroup with its matched control was 0.68 (95% CI: 0.55, 0.83).

Locally Advanced Or Metastatic Triple-Negative Breast Cancer

The efficacy of TECENTRIQ in combination with paclitaxel protein-bound was investigated in IMpassion130 (NCT02425891), a multicenter, international, double-blinded, placebo-controlled, randomized trial that included 902 unresectable locally advanced or metastatic triple-negative breast cancer patients that had not received prior chemotherapy for metastatic disease. Patients were stratified by presence of liver metastases, prior taxane treatment, and by PD-L1 expression status in tumor infiltrating immune cells (IC) (PD-L1 stained tumor-infiltrating immune cells [IC] <1% of tumor area vs. ≥ 1% of the tumor area) by the VENTANA PD-L1 (SP142) Assay. Of the 902 patients in the intent to treat population (ITT), 41% (369 patients) were classified as PD-L1 expression ≥ 1%. Patients were randomized (1:1) to receive either TECENTRIQ (840 mg) or placebo intravenous infusions on Days 1 and 15 of every 28-day cycle, plus paclitaxel protein-bound (100 mg/m2) administered via intravenous infusion on Days 1, 8 and 15 of every 28-day cycle. Patients received treatment until radiographic disease progression per RECIST v1.1, or unacceptable toxicity.

Patients were excluded if they had a history of autoimmune disease, administration of a live attenuated vaccine within 4 weeks prior to randomization, administration of systemic immunostimulatory agents within 4 weeks or systemic immunosuppressive medications within 2 weeks prior to randomization; or untreated or corticosteroid-dependent brain metastases. Tumor assessments were performed every 8 weeks (± 1 week) for the first 12 months after Cycle 1, day 1 and every 12 weeks (± 1 week) thereafter.

In IMpassion130, the median age was 55 years (range: 20-86). Overall, most patients were women (99.6%) and the majority of patients were white (68%), Asian (18%), Black or African American (7%), and American Indian or Alaskan Native (4.4%). The demographic and baseline disease characteristics of the study population were well balanced between the treatment arms. Baseline ECOG performance status was 0 (58%) or 1 (41%). Overall, 41% of enrolled patients had PD-L1 expression ≥ 1%, 27% had liver metastases and 7% brain metastases at baseline. Approximately half the patients had received a taxane (51%) or anthracycline (54%) in the (neo)adjuvant setting. Patient demographics and baseline tumor disease in the PD-L1 expressing population were generally representative of the broader study population.

Tumor specimens (archival or fresh) were evaluated prospectively using the VENTANA PD-L1 (SP142) Assay at a central laboratory and the results were used as a stratification factor for randomization and to define the PD-L1 expression subgroups for pre-specified analyses.

The major efficacy outcomes were investigator-assessed progression free survival (PFS) in the ITT and PD-L1 expressing patient population per RECIST v1.1 and overall survival (OS) in the ITT population.
