Abstract
BACKGROUND: The Fast Real-time Assessment of Combination Therapies in Immuno-ONcology study in patients with aRCC (FRACTION-RCC) was designed to assess new immuno-oncology (IO) combinations in patients with advanced renal cell carcinoma (aRCC). We present results in IO-naive patients treated with nivolumab (NIVO) + relatlimab (RELA) or NIVO + ipilimumab (IPI) in track 1. METHODS: The open-label, randomised, phase II FRACTION-RCC trial enrolled patients with aRCC from 32 hospitals and cancer centres across six countries. Patients were enrolled in track 1 (IO-naive) or track 2 (IO-experienced). IO-naive patients were stratified by previous tyrosine kinase inhibitor therapy and randomised to NIVO (240 mg) + RELA (80 mg) intravenously once every 2 weeks or NIVO (3 mg/kg) + IPI (1 mg/kg) intravenously once every 3 weeks for four doses, followed by NIVO (480 mg) once every 4 weeks, each up to ∼2 years. The primary endpoints were objective response by investigator (RECIST version 1.1), duration of response (DOR), and progression-free survival (PFS) rate at 24 weeks. Safety was a secondary endpoint; biomarker analyses were exploratory. RESULTS: FRACTION-RCC enrolled patients between 2 February 2017 and 23 January 2020. In track 1, 30 patients each were treated with NIVO + RELA or NIVO + IPI (clinical database lock, 1 November 2021). With NIVO + RELA [median follow-up, 48.6 months; interquartile range (IQR) 46.9-51.7 months], objective response was 30% [95% confidence interval (CI) 15% to 49%], with 33 weeks (95% CI 16-53 weeks) median DOR. The PFS rate at 24 weeks was 43% (95% CI 25% to 60%). With NIVO + IPI (median follow-up, 48.7 months; IQR 47.1-52.0 months), the objective response was 20% (95% CI 8% to 39%), with the median DOR not reached (95% CI 33 weeks-not estimable). The PFS rate at 24 weeks was 49% (95% CI 29% to 66%). Higher baseline lymphocyte activation gene 3 (LAG-3) and programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1) expression levels were detected among track 1 NIVO + RELA responders. Grade 3-4 treatment-related adverse events were reported in 4/30 (13%) patients treated with NIVO + RELA and 10/30 (33%) patients treated with NIVO + IPI. No deaths were attributed to study treatments. CONCLUSIONS: Results showed antitumour activity and manageable safety with NIVO + RELA. Findings also support NIVO + IPI as an effective combination regimen in IO-naive patients with aRCC.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model 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 it
