Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

This study was conducted to compare survival using pembrolizumab (SCH 900475, MK-3475) or standard chemotherapy in participants with advanced melanoma (MEL) who had progressed after prior therapy.

Initial Treatment Period:

Participants were initially randomized to receive either low-dose (2 mg/kg) pembrolizumab, higher dose (10 mg/kg) pembrolizumab or Investigator-choice chemotherapy (ICC). The four standard chemotherapy choices were: carboplatin + paclitaxel, paclitaxel alone, dacarbazine, or temozolomide. The randomization to either pembrolizumab or ICC was conducted in an open-label fashion.

The starting pembrolizumab dose was initially blinded to Investigators and participants until Amendment 03. With Amendment 03, all ongoing pembrolizumab participants were to be treated with open label, fixed dose pembrolizumab 200 mg, instead of a weight-based dosing of pembrolizumab.

Switch-to-Pembrolizumab Treatment Period:

Participants who were initially randomized to receive ICC and experienced progressive disease (PD) may have been eligible to switch to receiving pembrolizumab provided they met protocol-specified requirements for switching. Qualified participants were re-randomized to receive either pembrolizumab 2 mg/kg or pembrolizumab 10 mg/kg in a double-blind fashion. Participants who qualified to switch to pembrolizumab must have completed a washout period of ≥28 days from last dose of chemotherapy before receiving pembrolizumab. With Amendment 03, all switched-to-pembrolizumab participants were to be treated with open-label, fixed dose pembrolizumab 200 mg instead of a weight-based dosing of pembrolizumab.

  • Outcome Measures

    Primary Outcome Measures

    1. Progression-free Survival (PFS) - Initial Treatment Period [Up to approximately 36 months (Through Final Analysis database cutoff date of 16-Nov-2015)]

      PFS was defined as the time from randomization to the first documented progressive disease (PD) or death due to any cause, whichever occurred first. Per Response Criteria in Solid Tumors version 1.1 (RECIST 1.1), PD was defined as at least a 20% increase in the sum of diameters of target lesions, taking as reference the smallest sum on study. In addition to the relative increase of 20%, the sum must have also demonstrated an absolute increase of at least 5 mm. Note: The appearance of one or more new lesions was also considered PD. Analysis of PFS was based on an integrated radiology and oncology (IRO) assessment and was not planned or conducted for the switch-to-pembrolizumab treatment groups. Median PFS based on the product limit (Kaplan-Meier) method for censored data is presented. This was the final analysis for PFS.

    2. Interim Overall Survival (OS) - Initial Treatment Period [Up to approximately 36 months (Through Final Analysis database cutoff date of 16-Nov-2015)]

      OS was defined as the time from randomization to death due to any cause. Analysis of OS was not planned or conducted for the switch-to-pembrolizumab treatment groups. Median OS based on the product-limit (Kaplan-Meier) method for censored data is presented. This was the interim analysis for OS.

    3. Final Overall Survival (OS) - Initial Treatment Period [Up to approximately 75 months (Through End of Trial Analysis database cutoff date of 31-Jan-2019)]

      OS was defined as the time from randomization to death due to any cause. Analysis of OS was not planned or conducted for the switch-to-pembrolizumab treatment groups. Median OS duration based on the product-limit (Kaplan-Meier) method for censored data is presented. This was the final analysis for OS.

    Secondary Outcome Measures

    1. Final Overall Survival (OS) By Programmed Cell Death-Ligand 1 (PD-L1) Tumor Expression Status - Initial Treatment Period [Up to approximately 75 months (Through End of Trial Analysis database cutoff date of 31-Jan-2019)]

      OS was defined as the time from randomization to death due to any cause. Participants with an Allred Proportion Score (APS) ≥2 (membranous staining in ≥1% of cells for PD-L1) were considered to be PD-L1 Positive and participants with an APS of 0 or 1 were considered to be PD-L1 Negative. Analysis of OS was not planned or conducted for the switch-to-pembrolizumab treatment groups. Median OS duration based on the product-limit (Kaplan-Meier) method for censored data by PD-L1 tumor expression status is presented.

    2. Overall Response Rate (ORR) - Initial Treatment Period [Up to approximately 36 months (Through Final Analysis database cutoff date of 16-Nov-2015)]

      ORR was defined as the percentage of participants who had a Complete Response (CR: Disappearance of all target lesions) or a Partial Response (PR: At least a 30% decrease in the sum of diameters of target lesions) as assessed using RECIST 1.1. Analysis of ORR was not planned or conducted for the switch-to-pembrolizumab treatment groups. The percentage of participants who experienced a CR or PR is presented. This was the final analysis for ORR.

    3. Best Overall Response (BOR) - Initial Treatment Period [Up to approximately 36 months (Through Final Analysis database cutoff date of 16-Nov-2015)]

      BOR was assessed by independent radiology review using RECIST 1.1 and was recorded from randomization until the last imaging assessment in this period. Response categories included: Complete Response (CR): disappearance of all target lesions; Partial Response (PR): at least a 30% decrease in the sum of diameters of target lesions; Progressive Disease (PD): at least a 20% increase in the sum of diameters of target lesions; and Stable Disease (SD): neither sufficient shrinkage to qualify for PR nor sufficient increase to qualify for PD. BOR for the Initial Treatment Period was based on IRO. BOR for participants during the Initial Treatment Period is presented.

    4. Best Overall Response (BOR) - Switch-to-Pembrolizumab Treatment Period [Up to approximately 36 months (Through Final Analysis database cutoff date of 16-Nov-2015)]

      The BOR was assessed using RECIST 1.1 and was recorded from the start of the second line of study drug (pembrolizumab) until the last imaging assessment in this period. Response categories included: Complete Response (CR): disappearance of all target lesions; Partial Response (PR): at least a 30% decrease in the sum of diameters of target lesions; Progressive Disease (PD): at least a 20% increase in the sum of diameters of target lesions; and Stable Disease (SD): neither sufficient shrinkage to qualify for PR nor sufficient increase to qualify for PD. For the switch-to-pembrolizumab treatment groups, BOR was based on independent review committee (IRC) assessment. The BOR for switched-to pembrolizumab treatment groups is presented.

    5. Duration of Response (DOR) - Initial Treatment Period [Up to approximately 36 months (Through Final Analysis database cutoff date of 16-Nov-2015)]

      For participants who demonstrated a confirmed response (Complete Response [CR]: disappearance of all target lesions or Partial Response [PR]: ≥30% decrease in the sum of diameters of target lesions) per RECIST 1.1, DOR was defined as the time from first documented evidence of CR or PR until disease progression or death. DOR for participants who had not progressed or died at the time of analysis was to be censored at the date of their last tumor assessment. DOR analysis was based on IRO assessment. Analysis of DOR was not planned or analyzed for the switch-to-pembrolizumab treatment groups. Median DOR for participants who demonstrated a confirmed response is presented.

    6. Number of Participants Who Experienced an Adverse Event (AE) - Overall Study [Up to approximately 75 months (Through End of Trial Analysis database cutoff date of 31-Jan-2019)]

      An AE was defined as any unfavorable and unintended change in the structure, function, or chemistry of the body temporally associated with the use of study drug, whether or not considered related to the use of the product. Any worsening (i.e., any clinically significant adverse change in frequency and/or intensity) of a pre-existing condition which was temporally associated with the use of study drug, was also an AE. Participants were included in the treatment group in which an AE was experienced. The number of participants who experienced at least one AE is presented.

    7. Number of Participants Who Discontinued Study Drug Due to an Adverse Event (AE) - Overall Study [Up to approximately 75 months (Through End of Trial Analysis database cutoff date of 31-Jan-2019)]

      An AE was defined as any unfavorable and unintended change in the structure, function, or chemistry of the body temporally associated with the use of the study drug, whether or not considered related to the use of the product. Any worsening (i.e., any clinically significant adverse change in frequency and/or intensity) of a pre-existing condition which is temporally associated with the use of study drug, was also an AE. The number of participants who discontinued study drug due to an AE is presented.

    Outcome Measures

    1. Primary Outcome
    Title Progression-free Survival (PFS) - Initial Treatment Period
    Description PFS was defined as the time from randomization to the first documented progressive disease (PD) or death due to any cause, whichever occurred first. Per Response Criteria in Solid Tumors version 1.1 (RECIST 1.1), PD was defined as at least a 20% increase in the sum of diameters of target lesions, taking as reference the smallest sum on study. In addition to the relative increase of 20%, the sum must have also demonstrated an absolute increase of at least 5 mm. Note: The appearance of one or more new lesions was also considered PD. Analysis of PFS was based on an integrated radiology and oncology (IRO) assessment and was not planned or conducted for the switch-to-pembrolizumab treatment groups. Median PFS based on the product limit (Kaplan-Meier) method for censored data is presented. This was the final analysis for PFS.
