Résumé

The survival benefit of immune checkpoint inhibitors for non-clear cell renal cell carcinoma (nccRCC) is unclear. Our purpose was to evaluate the real-world survival benefit of ipilimumab plus nivolumab retrospectively. We retrospectively reviewed medical records of 33 patients with metastatic nccRCC who received combination therapy with ipilimumab plus nivolumab or monotherapy with a molecular targeted agent as initial systemic therapy. Progression-free survival (PFS), overall survival (OS) and objective response rate were compared between the two groups. Median PFS of each therapy was 3.5 and 4.7 months (p=0.61) and median OS was 19.6 and 10.6 months (p=0.23), respectively. Three patients treated with ipilimumab and nivolumab had a complete response, resulting in an objective response rate of 30.0%, while that for molecular targeted therapy was 4.5% (p=0.04). Ipilimumab plus nivolumab achieved statistically non-significant, but longer overall survival and significantly higher objective response rate.

BACKGROUND/AIM OBJECTIVE
The survival benefit of immune checkpoint inhibitors for non-clear cell renal cell carcinoma (nccRCC) is unclear. Our purpose was to evaluate the real-world survival benefit of ipilimumab plus nivolumab retrospectively.
PATIENTS AND METHODS METHODS
We retrospectively reviewed medical records of 33 patients with metastatic nccRCC who received combination therapy with ipilimumab plus nivolumab or monotherapy with a molecular targeted agent as initial systemic therapy. Progression-free survival (PFS), overall survival (OS) and objective response rate were compared between the two groups.
RESULTS RESULTS
Median PFS of each therapy was 3.5 and 4.7 months (p=0.61) and median OS was 19.6 and 10.6 months (p=0.23), respectively. Three patients treated with ipilimumab and nivolumab had a complete response, resulting in an objective response rate of 30.0%, while that for molecular targeted therapy was 4.5% (p=0.04).
CONCLUSION CONCLUSIONS
Ipilimumab plus nivolumab achieved statistically non-significant, but longer overall survival and significantly higher objective response rate.
