Keynote 057: Phase II trial of Pembrolizumab (pembro) for patients (pts) with high-risk (HR) nonmuscle invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC) unresponsive to bacillus calmette-guérin (BCG).
Bibliographic record
Abstract
350 Background: The PD-1 inhibitor pembro has durable antitumor activity in pts with metastatic urothelial carcinoma. Upregulation of the PD-1 pathway has been observed in BCG-resistant NMIBC, suggesting pembro may benefit. Efficacy and safety of pembro in pts with HR, BCG-unresponsive NMIBC was evaluated in the single-arm phase 2 KEYNOTE-057 study; updated results for pts with carcinoma in situ (CIS) with or without papillary tumor (cohort A) are reported. Methods: Pts with histologically confirmed HR, BCG-unresponsive CIS with or without papillary disease, who received adequate BCG therapy and were unable/unwilling to undergo radical cystectomy received pembro 200 mg Q3W for 24 mo or until recurrence, progression, or unacceptable toxicity. Pts with HR NMIBC or progressive disease during treatment were required to discontinue. Primary end point: complete response rate (CRR); key secondary end points: duration of response and safety. Results: 103 pts (median age 73 years; CIS alone 71.8%; median number of prior BCG instillations 12) have enrolled in cohort A. 3-mo CRR rate was 38.8% (95% CI 29.4%-48.9%) by central assessment. Among 40 pts who achieved CR at 3 mo, 72.5% maintained CR at last follow-up (median 14.0 mo; range 4.0-26.3) and median CR duration has not been reached (range 0+ to 14.1+ mo). 80.2% of pts had a CR duration of ≥6 mo (Kaplan-Meier method). 10 (25.0%) experienced recurrent NMIBC after CR; at the time of analysis, none progressed to muscle invasive or metastatic disease. Treatment-related adverse events (AEs) occurred in 65 (63.1%) pts; most frequent were pruritus (10.7%), fatigue (9.7%), diarrhea (8.7%), hypothyroidism (5.8%), and maculopapular rash (5.8%). Grade 3/4 treatment-related AEs occurred in 13 (12.6%) pts; 1 death was considered treatment-related (colitis in patient inadequately treated with steroids). Immune-mediated AEs occurred in 19 (18.4%) pts. Conclusions: Pembro had encouraging activity in pts with HR, BCG-unresponsive CIS with or without papillary tumors and a safety profile consistent with that of previous experience. Updated data using additional follow-up will be presented. Clinical trial. Clinical trial information: NCT02625961.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
