Abstract Introduction: Atezo (anti-PD-L1) + bev + chemo prolonged PFS vs bev + chemo in patients (pts) with 1L non-squamous mNSCLC in the randomized Ph 3 IMpower150 study regardless of PD-L1 expression. This analysis aims to further understand the efficacy of atezo + bev + chemo in key subgroups: PD-L1 expression subgroups defined by the SP142 and SP263 IHC assays, patients with EGFR/ALK genetic alterations and patients with liver metastases at baseline. Methods: Pts received atezo 1200 mg + bev 15 mg/kg + carboplatin (C) AUC 6 + paclitaxel (P) 200 mg/m2 (Arm B) or bev + C + P (Arm C) IV q3w. A co-primary endpoint (EP) was PFS in the ITT-WT (EGFR or ALK wild-type pts); a secondary EP was PFS in subgroups defined by PD-L1 expression on tumor cells (TC) and tumor-infiltrating immune cells (IC) with SP142. Retrospective analysis with SP263 was a prespecified exploratory EP. Results: In Arms B and C of the ITT-WT (n = 692), 503 pts had available tumor sections for SP263 testing (BEP). Pt characteristics in the ITT-WT and BEP were similar. A similar PFS benefit was observed for Arm B vs C across all PD-L1 expression subgroups defined by either assay, including pts with PD-L1-negative and PD-L1-low tumors (Table). PFS benefit with Arm B vs C was also observed in patients with EGFR or ALK genomic alterations, including patients with actionable EGFR mutations, and in patients with liver metastases at baseline (Table). Conclusion: PFS benefit with atezo + bev + chemo was observed across all PD-L1 subgroups, regardless of the IHC assay used. Additionally, clinically meaningful PFS benefit was observed in patients with EGFR/ALK genomic alterations, and in patients with liver metastases with this combination. Table.
