Background: Durvalumab and tremelimumab, investigational monoclonal antibodies against PD-L1 and CTLA-4 immune checkpoints, respectively, have shown efficacy in monotherapy and offer promise in combination for patients (pts) with HCC. This is a phase I/II, open-label, randomized study of durvalumab combined with tremelimumab in unresectable HCC. Methods: Phase I part of this study is a safety run-in cohort treated at the recommended phase II doses of the durvalumab/tremelimumab combination (20 and 1 mg/kg IV Q4W respectively for 4 doses followed by 20 mg/kg Q4W durvalumab alone) in pts with unresectable HCC with or without concomitant HBV or HCV infection who progress on, are intolerant to, or have refused sorafenib therapy. Secondary objectives include evaluation of antitumor activity. Here we present results of a preplanned analysis from the completed phase I part of the study. Results: As of 10 January 2017, 40 pts have been enrolled (11 HBV+, 9 HCV+, 20 uninfected). 30% had no prior systemic therapy; 93% were Child Pugh Class A. 24 (60%) had ≥1 treatment-related AE; 20% had ≥1 grade ≥3 related AE. Most common (≥15%) treatment-related AEs: fatigue (20%), increased ALT (18%), pruritus (18%), and increased AST (15%). Most common grade ≥3 related AE was asymptomatic increased AST (10%). 24 pts have discontinued treatment: 3 due to treatment-related AEs (grade 3 pneumonitis, grade 3 colitis/diarrhea, asymptomatic grade 4 elevated AST and ALT), 16 due to progressive disease, 4 due to death unrelated to treatment (cardiac arrest, variceal bleed, progressive disease, probable HCC rupture), and 1 other (pt entered hospice care). 40 pts were evaluable for response at ≥16 weeks follow-up. Conclusions: No unexpected safety signals with durvalumab and tremelimumab were seen in this unresectable HCC population. Clinical activity observed predominantly in uninfected pts though interpretation limited by small subsets. Enrollment to the phase II portion of the study is ongoing.
