Clinical Factors Associated with Long-Term Survival in Metastatic Melanoma Treated with Anti-PD1 Alone or in Combination with Ipilimumab

Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) for treatment of metastatic melanoma (MM) offer lasting overall survival (OS) benefit in a subset of patients. However, outcomes remain poor for non-responders. Clinical predictors of long-term survival remain elusive. We utilized the Alberta Immunotherapy Databas...

Sumario:Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) for treatment of metastatic melanoma (MM) offer lasting overall survival (OS) benefit in a subset of patients. However, outcomes remain poor for non-responders. Clinical predictors of long-term survival remain elusive. We utilized the Alberta Immunotherapy Database to investigate the association of host and disease characteristics, and treatment factors with overall survival (OS) greater than 3 years. We identified patients treated between August 2013 and May 2020 with single-agent anti-PD1 or combination (anti-PD1 and anti-CTLA4) ICI regimens. A logistic regression model was used to assess for independent association between clinical factors captured and survival greater than 3 years. Statistically significant factors on univariable analysis were assessed using multivariable analysis. In total, 284 of 460 patients were identified to have short-term (<1 year) or long-term (>3 years) survival with 186 surviving <1 year and 98 surviving >3 years. The median age was 64 and 18.4% of patients were ECOG ≥ 2. On logistic regression, Breslow’s Depth ≤ 4 mm, normal serum LDH, normal serum albumin and M-stage 1a/b were associated with OS > 3 years on univariable and multivariable analysis. ECOG < 2, dNLR ≤ 3, normal hemoglobin were only associated with survival on the univariable analysis but not in the multivariable analysis. The objective response rate in long-term survivors was 83.7% compared to 7.5% in the short-term survivors. Our study identifies four easily accessible predictors of long-term survival in a large real-world MM cohort treated with ICI.
