CheckMate 227: Nivo Ipi in 1L NSCLC With High TMB ( 10 mut/Mb) Introduction The standard-of-care first-line treatment for patients with advanced NSCLC has been characterized by platinum-doublet chemotherapy or pembrolizumab in patients with 50% tumor PD-L1 expression 1-3 Nivolumab and ipilimumab are immune checkpoint inhibitor antibodies with distinct but complementary mechanisms of action Nivolumab ipilimumab demonstrated improved survival in phase 3 studies in melanoma and RCC 4,5 CheckMate 012 evaluated nivolumab ipilimumab in first-line NSCLC 6,7 – Dosing of nivolumab 3 mg/kg Q2W ipilimumab 1 mg/kg Q6W was optimized for NSCLC (13% discontinuation due to TRAEs in nivolumab low-dose ipilimumab) – Nivolumab ipilimumab demonstrated improved outcomes relative to nivolumab – Efficacy was enhanced in patients with 1% tumor PD-L1 expression 1.

CheckMate 568: Identification of Optimal TMB Cutoff ( 10 mut/Mb) for Nivo Ipi in 1L NSCLC Introduction Approved approaches in 1L NSCLC include anti–PD-1 monotherapy in patients with 50% tumor PD-L1 expression and I-O combined with chemotherapy Despite recent advances, there remains an unmet need for biomarkers that identify patients more likely to benefit from I-O therapies Nivolumab ipilimumab demonstrated durable clinical activity in 1L NSCLC in the CheckMate 012 trial1,2 – Dosing of nivolumab 3 mg/kg Q2W ipilimumab 1 mg/kg Q6W was optimized for NSCLC (13% discontinuation due to TRAEs in nivolumab low-dose ipilimumab) TMB is an emerging, predictive biomarker of response to I-O therapy in multiple tumor types, including lung cancer3-5 1.

CheckMate 568: Identification of Optimal TMB Cutoff ( 10 mut/Mb) for Nivo Ipi in 1L NSCLC CheckMate 568 Summary: Nivolumab Ipilimumab in 1L NSCLC Nivolumab 3 mg/kg Q2W low-dose ipilimumab 1 mg/kg Q6W was effective and well tolerated, consistent with previous reports using the optimized dose regimen ORR increased in patients with higher TMB, and plateaued at TMB 10 mut/Mb – TMB 10 mut/Mb (FoundationOne CDxTM) was identified as the optimal cutoff for treatment benefit for 1L nivolumab ipilimumab – In this study, 49% of 1L NSCLC patients had TMB 10 mut/Mb Consistent with previous studies, TMB and PD-L1 are independent biomarkers – PD-L1 and TMB identify distinct and independent populations of NSCLC – PD-L1 and TMB independently are associated with enhanced ORR and PFS A cutoff of 10 mut/Mb was chosen to pre-specify the high TMB patient population for the PFS co-primary endpoint in CheckMate 227 53
