The data described in WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS reflect exposure to TECENTRIQ as a single-agent in 2616 patients in two randomized, active-controlled studies (POPLAR, OAK) and three open-label, single arm studies (PCD4989g, BIRCH, FIR) which enrolled 1636 patients with metastatic NSCLC, and 980 patients with other tumor types. TECENTRIQ was administered at a dose of 1200 mg intravenously every 3 weeks in all studies except PCD4989g. Among the 2616 patients who received a single-agent TECENTRIQ, 36% were exposed for longer than 6 months and 20% were exposed for longer than 12 months. Using the dataset described for patients who received TECENTRIQ as a single-agent, the most common adverse reactions in ≥ 20% of patients were fatigue/asthenia (48%), decreased appetite (25%), nausea (24%), cough (22%), and dyspnea (22%). In addition, the data reflect exposure to TECENTRIQ as a single agent as adjuvant therapy in 495 patients with early stage NSCLC enrolled in a randomized study (IMpower010). In addition, the data reflect exposure to TECENTRIQ in combination with other antineoplastic drugs in 2421 patients with NSCLC (N = 2223) or SCLC (N = 198) enrolled in five randomized, active-controlled trials, including IMpower150, IMpower130 and IMpower133. Among the 2421 patients, 53% were exposed to TECENTRIQ for longer than 6 months and 29% were exposed to TECENTRIQ for longer than 12 months. Among the 2421 patients with NSCLC and SCLC who received TECENTRIQ in combination with other antineoplastic drugs, the most common adverse reactions in ≥20% of patients were fatigue/asthenia (49%), nausea (38%), alopecia (35%), constipation (29%), diarrhea (28%) and decreased appetite (27%). The data also reflect exposure to TECENTRIQ administered in combination with cobimetinib and vemurafenib in 230 patients enrolled in IMspire150. Among the 230 patients, 62% were exposed to TECENTRIQ for longer than 6 months and 42% were exposed to TECENTRIQ for longer than 12 months. Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC) Adjuvant Treatment of Early-stage NSCLC IMpower010 The safety of TECENTRIQ was evaluated in IMpower010, a multicenter, open-label, randomized trial for the adjuvant treatment of patients with stage IB (tumors ≥ 4 cm) - IIIA NSCLC who had complete tumor resection and received up to 4 cycles of cisplatin-based adjuvant chemotherapy. Patients received TECENTRIQ 1200 mg every 3 weeks (n=495) for 1 year (16 cycles), unless disease progression or unacceptable toxicity occurred, or best supportive care [see Clinical Studies (14.1) ] . The median number of cycles received was 16 (range: 1, 16). Fatal adverse reactions occurred in 1.8% of patients receiving TECENTRIQ; these included multiple organ dysfunction syndrome, pneumothorax, interstitial lung disease, arrhythmia, acute cardiac failure, myocarditis, cerebrovascular accident, death of unknown cause, and acute myeloid leukemia (1 patient each). Serious adverse reactions occurred in 18% of patients receiving TECENTRIQ. The most frequent serious adverse reactions (>1%) were pneumonia (1.8%), pneumonitis (1.6%), and pyrexia (1.2%). TECENTRIQ was discontinued due to adverse reactions in 18% of patients ; the most common adverse reactions (≥1%) leading to TECENTRIQ discontinuation were pneumonitis (2.2%), hypothyroidism (1.6%), increased aspartate aminotranferase (1.4%), arthralgia (1.0%), and increased alanine aminotransferase (1.0%). Adverse reactions leading to interruption of TECENTRIQ occurred in 29% of patients; the most common (>1%) were rash (3.0%), hyperthyroidism (2.8%), hypothyroidism (1.6%), increased AST (1.6%), pyrexia (1.6%), increased ALT (1.4%), upper respiratory tract infection (1.4%), headache (1.2%), peripheral neuropathy (1.2%), and pneumonia (1.2%).

Clinical Pharmacology

12 CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY 12.1 Mechanism of Action PD L1 may be expressed on tumor cells and/or tumor infiltrating immune cells and can contribute to the inhibition of the anti-tumor immune response in the tumor microenvironment. Binding of PD L1 to the PD 1 and B7.1 receptors found on T cells and antigen presenting cells suppresses cytotoxic T-cell activity, T-cell proliferation and cytokine production. Atezolizumab is a monoclonal antibody that binds to PD L1 and blocks its interactions with both PD 1 and B7.1 receptors. This releases the PD L1/PD 1 mediated inhibition of the immune response, including activation of the anti-tumor immune response without inducing antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity. In syngeneic mouse tumor models, blocking PD L1 activity resulted in decreased tumor growth. In mouse models of cancer, dual inhibition of the PD-1/PD-L1 and MAPK pathways suppresses tumor growth and improves tumor immunogenicity through increased antigen presentation and T cell infiltration and activation compared to targeted therapy alone. 12.2 Pharmacodynamics The exposure-response relationship and time course of pharmacodynamic response for the safety and effectiveness of atezolizumab have not been fully characterized. 12.3 Pharmacokinetics Atezolizumab exposure increased dose proportionally over the dose range of 1 mg/kg to 20 mg/kg (0.07 to 1.33 times of the approved recommended doses), including a dose of 1200 mg administered every 3 weeks. Steady state was achieved after 6 to 9 weeks following multiple doses. The systemic accumulation ratio for every 2 weeks administration and every 3 weeks administration is 3.3- and 1.9- fold, respectively. Distribution The volume of distribution at steady state is 6.9 L. Elimination The clearance (CV%) is 0.2 L/day (29%) and the terminal half-life is 27 days. Atezolizumab clearance was found to decrease over time, with a mean maximal reduction (CV%) from baseline value of 17% (41%); however, the decrease in clearance was not considered clinically relevant. Specific Populations The following factors had no clinically significant effect on the systemic exposure of atezolizumab: age (2 to 89 years), body weight, sex, albumin levels, tumor burden, region or race, mild or moderate renal impairment [estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) 30 to 89 mL/min/1.73 m 2 ], mild hepatic impairment (bilirubin ≤ ULN and AST > ULN or bilirubin > 1 to 1.5 × ULN and any AST), moderate hepatic impairment (bilirubin >1.5 to 3× ULN and any AST), level of PD-L1 expression, or performance status. Pediatric Patients Atezolizumab serum concentrations with weight-based dosing at 15 mg/kg up to a maximum of 1200 mg every 3 weeks, in pediatric patients (2 years to <17 years) with relapsed or progressive solid tumors and lymphomas, are comparable to those of adult patients receiving 1200 mg every 3 weeks; while the exposure tended to be lower in pediatric patients less than 12 years old, this is not considered to be clinically relevant. 12.6 Immunogenicity The observed incidence of anti-drug antibodies (ADA) is highly dependent on the sensitivity and specificity of the assay. Differences in assay methods preclude meaningful comparisons of the incidence of ADA in the studies described below with the incidence of ADA in other products. During the first year of treatment with TECENTRIQ across 8 clinical studies, 13% to 36% of patients developed anti-atezolizumab antibodies. Median atezolizumab clearance in patients who tested positive for ADA was 19% (minimum 18%, maximum 49%) higher as compared to atezolizumab clearance in patients who tested negative for ADA; this change in clearance is not expected to be clinically significant. In OAK and IMbrave150, exploratory analyses showed that the subset of patients who were ADA-positive appeared to have less efficacy (effect on overall survival) as compared to patients who tested negative for ADA [see Clinical Studies (14.1 , 14.3) ] . In study IMpower150, the impact of ADA on efficacy did not appear to be clinically significant [see Clinical Studies (14.1) ] . In the remaining studies, there is insufficient information to characterize the effect of ADA on efficacy. The presence of ADA did not have a clinically significant effect on the incidence or severity of adverse reactions. Across clinical studies, 4.3% to 27.5% of neutralizing antibody (NAb)-evaluable patients had a positive NAb status at any timepoint post-treatment. The effect of NAb on atezolizumab exposure and safety did not appear to be clinically significant. The effect of NAb on key efficacy endpoints is uncertain due to small sample sizes.

Mechanism Of Action

12.1 Mechanism of Action PD L1 may be expressed on tumor cells and/or tumor infiltrating immune cells and can contribute to the inhibition of the anti-tumor immune response in the tumor microenvironment. Binding of PD L1 to the PD 1 and B7.1 receptors found on T cells and antigen presenting cells suppresses cytotoxic T-cell activity, T-cell proliferation and cytokine production. Atezolizumab is a monoclonal antibody that binds to PD L1 and blocks its interactions with both PD 1 and B7.1 receptors. This releases the PD L1/PD 1 mediated inhibition of the immune response, including activation of the anti-tumor immune response without inducing antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity. In syngeneic mouse tumor models, blocking PD L1 activity resulted in decreased tumor growth. In mouse models of cancer, dual inhibition of the PD-1/PD-L1 and MAPK pathways suppresses tumor growth and improves tumor immunogenicity through increased antigen presentation and T cell infiltration and activation compared to targeted therapy alone.

Pharmacodynamics

12.2 Pharmacodynamics The exposure-response relationship and time course of pharmacodynamic response for the safety and effectiveness of atezolizumab have not been fully characterized.

    Animal Pharmacology And Or Toxicology

    13.2 Animal Toxicology and/or Pharmacology In animal models, inhibition of PD-L1/PD-1 signaling increased the severity of some infections and enhanced inflammatory responses. M. tuberculosis-infected PD-1 knockout mice exhibit markedly decreased survival compared with wild-type controls, which correlated with increased bacterial proliferation and inflammatory responses in these animals. PD-L1 and PD-1 knockout mice and mice receiving PD-L1 blocking antibody have also shown decreased survival following infection with lymphocytic choriomeningitis virus.

    Carcinogenesis And Mutagenesis And Impairment Of Fertility

    13.1 Carcinogenesis, Mutagenesis, Impairment of Fertility No studies have been performed to test the potential of atezolizumab for carcinogenicity or genotoxicity. Animal fertility studies have not been conducted with atezolizumab; however, an assessment of the male and female reproductive organs was included in a 26-week, repeat-dose toxicity study in cynomolgus monkeys. Weekly administration of atezolizumab to female monkeys at the highest dose tested caused an irregular menstrual cycle pattern and a lack of newly formed corpora lutea in the ovaries. This effect occurred at an estimated AUC approximately 6 times the AUC in patients receiving the recommended dose and was reversible. There was no effect on the male monkey reproductive organs.

Revised:12/2022 What is the most important information I should know about TECENTRIQ? TECENTRIQ is a medicine that may treat certain cancers by working with your immune system. TECENTRIQ can cause your immune system to attack normal organs and tissues in any area of your body and can affect the way they work. These problems can sometimes become severe or life-threatening and can lead to death. You can have more than one of these problems at the same time. These problems may happen anytime during your treatment or even after your treatment has ended. Call or see your healthcare provider right away if you develop any new or worse signs or symptoms, including: Lung problems. cough shortness of breath chest pain Intestinal problems. diarrhea (loose stools) or more frequent bowel movements than usual stools that are black, tarry, sticky, or have blood or mucus severe stomach-area (abdomen) pain or tenderness Liver problems. yellowing of your skin or the whites of your eyes severe nausea or vomiting pain on the right side of your stomach area (abdomen) dark urine (tea colored) bleeding or bruising more easily than normal Hormone gland problems. headaches that will not go away or unusual headaches eye sensitivity to light eye problems rapid heart beat increased sweating extreme tiredness weight gain or weight loss feeling more hungry or thirsty than usual urinating more often than usual hair loss feeling cold constipation your voice gets deeper dizziness or fainting changes in mood or behavior, such as decreased sex drive, irritability, or forgetfulness Kidney problems. decrease in your amount of urine blood in your urine swelling of your ankles loss of appetite Skin problems. rash itching skin blistering or peeling painful sores or ulcers in mouth or nose, throat, or genital area fever or flu-like symptoms swollen lymph nodes Problems can also happen in other organs. These are not all of the signs and symptoms of immune system problems that can happen with TECENTRIQ. Call or see your healthcare provider right away for any new or worse signs or symptoms, including: chest pain, irregular heartbeat, shortness of breath, or swelling of ankles confusion, sleepiness, memory problems, changes in mood or behavior, stiff neck, balance problems, tingling or numbness of the arms or legs double vision, blurry vision, sensitivity to light, eye pain, changes in eye sight persistent or severe muscle pain or weakness, muscle cramps low red blood cells, bruising Infusion reactions that can sometimes be severe or life-threatening. Signs and symptoms of infusion reactions may include: chills or shaking itching or rash flushing shortness of breath or wheezing dizziness feeling like passing out fever back or neck pain Complications, including graft-versus-host disease (GVHD), in people who have received a bone marrow (stem cell) transplant that uses donor stem cells (allogeneic). These complications can be serious and can lead to death. These complications may happen if you underwent transplantation either before or after being treated with TECENTRIQ. Your healthcare provider will monitor you for these complications. Getting medical treatment right away may help keep these problems from becoming more serious. Your healthcare provider will check you for these problems during your treatment with TECENTRIQ. Your healthcare provider may treat you with corticosteroid or hormone replacement medicines. Your healthcare provider may also need to delay or completely stop treatment with TECENTRIQ if you have severe side effects. What is TECENTRIQ? TECENTRIQ is a prescription medicine used to treat adults with: a type of lung cancer called non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). TECENTRIQ may be used alone as a treatment for your lung cancer: to help prevent your lung cancer from coming back after your tumor(s) has been removed by surgery and you have received platinum-based chemotherapy, and you have stage 2 to stage 3A NSCLC (talk to your healthcare provider about what these stages mean), and your cancer tests positive for "PD-L1". TECENTRIQ may be used alone as your first treatment when your lung cancer: has spread or grown, and your cancer tests positive for "high PD-L1", and your tumor does not have an abnormal "EGFR" or "ALK" gene. TECENTRIQ may be used with the medicines bevacizumab, paclitaxel, and carboplatin as your first treatment when your lung cancer: has spread or grown, and is a type called "non-squamous NSCLC", and your tumor does not have an abnormal "EGFR" or "ALK" gene. TECENTRIQ may be used with the medicines paclitaxel protein-bound and carboplatin as your first treatment when your lung cancer: has spread or grown, and is a type called "non-squamous NSCLC", and your tumor does not have an abnormal "EGFR" or "ALK" gene. TECENTRIQ may also be used alone when your lung cancer: has spread or grown, and you have tried chemotherapy that contains platinum, and it did not work or is no longer working. if your tumor has an abnormal "EGFR" or "ALK" gene, you should have also tried an FDA-approved therapy for tumors with these abnormal genes, and it did not work or is no longer working. adults with a type of lung cancer called small cell lung cancer (SCLC). TECENTRIQ may be used with the chemotherapy medicines carboplatin and etoposide as your first treatment when your lung cancer is a type called "extensive-stage SCLC," which means that it has spread or grown. adults with a type of liver cancer called hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). TECENTRIQ may be used with the medicine bevacizumab when your liver cancer: has spread or cannot be removed by surgery, and you have not received other medicines by mouth or injection through your vein (IV) to treat your cancer. adults with a type of skin cancer called melanoma. TECENTRIQ may be used with the medicines cobimetinib and vemurafenib when your melanoma: has spread to other parts of the body or cannot be removed by surgery, and has a certain type of abnormal "BRAF" gene. Your healthcare provider will perform a test to make sure this TECENTRIQ combination is right for you. adults and children 2 years of age and older with a type of soft tissue tumor (cancer) called alveolar soft part sarcoma (ASPS). TECENTRIQ may be used when your sarcoma: has spread to other parts of the body or cannot be removed by surgery. It is not known if TECENTRIQ is safe and effective when used: in children younger than 2 years of age for the treatment of ASPS. in children for the treatment of NSCLC, SCLC, HCC, or melanoma. Before receiving TECENTRIQ, tell your healthcare provider about all of your medical conditions, including if you: have immune system problems such as Crohn's disease, ulcerative colitis, or lupus have received an organ transplant have received or plan to receive a stem cell transplant that uses donor stem cells (allogeneic) have received radiation treatment to your chest area have a condition that affects your nervous system, such as myasthenia gravis or Guillain-Barré syndrome are pregnant or plan to become pregnant. TECENTRIQ can harm your unborn baby. Tell your healthcare provider right away if you become pregnant or think you may be pregnant during treatment with TECENTRIQ. Females who are able to become pregnant: Your healthcare provider should do a pregnancy test before you start treatment with TECENTRIQ. You should use an effective method of birth control during your treatment and for at least 5 months after the last dose of TECENTRIQ. are breastfeeding or plan to breastfeed. It is not known if TECENTRIQ passes into your breast milk. Do not breastfeed during treatment and for at least 5 months after the last dose of TECENTRIQ. Tell your healthcare provider about all the medicines you take, including prescription and over-the-counter medicines, vitamins, and herbal supplements. How will I receive TECENTRIQ? Your healthcare provider will give you TECENTRIQ into your vein through an intravenous (IV) line over 30 to 60 minutes. TECENTRIQ is usually given every 2, 3, or 4 weeks. Your healthcare provider will decide how many treatments you need. Your healthcare provider will test your blood to check you for certain side effects. For treatment of a type of skin cancer called melanoma, your healthcare provider will also prescribe you cobimetinib and vemurafenib. Take cobimetinib and vemurafenib exactly as your healthcare provider tells you. If you miss any appointments, call your healthcare provider as soon as possible to reschedule your appointment. What are the possible side effects of TECENTRIQ? TECENTRIQ can cause serious side effects, including: See " What is the most important information I should know about TECENTRIQ?

    What is the most important information I should know about TECENTRIQ?
    TECENTRIQ is a medicine that may treat certain cancers by working with your immune system. TECENTRIQ can cause your immune system to attack normal organs and tissues in any area of your body and can affect the way they work. These problems can sometimes become severe or life-threatening and can lead to death. You can have more than one of these problems at the same time. These problems may happen anytime during your treatment or even after your treatment has ended.
    Call or see your healthcare provider right away if you develop any new or worse signs or symptoms, including: Lung problems.
  • cough
  • shortness of breath
  • chest pain
  • Intestinal problems.
  • diarrhea (loose stools) or more frequent bowel movements than usual
  • stools that are black, tarry, sticky, or have blood or mucus
  • severe stomach-area (abdomen) pain or tenderness
  • Liver problems.
  • yellowing of your skin or the whites of your eyes
  • severe nausea or vomiting
  • pain on the right side of your stomach area (abdomen)
  • dark urine (tea colored)
  • bleeding or bruising more easily than normal
  • Hormone gland problems.
  • headaches that will not go away or unusual headaches
  • eye sensitivity to light
  • eye problems
  • rapid heart beat

  • fever or flu-like symptoms
  • swollen lymph nodes
  • Problems can also happen in other organs. These are not all of the signs and symptoms of immune system problems that can happen with TECENTRIQ. Call or see your healthcare provider right away for any new or worse signs or symptoms, including:
  • chest pain, irregular heartbeat, shortness of breath, or swelling of ankles
  • confusion, sleepiness, memory problems, changes in mood or behavior, stiff neck, balance problems, tingling or numbness of the arms or legs
  • double vision, blurry vision, sensitivity to light, eye pain, changes in eye sight
  • persistent or severe muscle pain or weakness, muscle cramps
  • low red blood cells, bruising
  • Infusion reactions that can sometimes be severe or life-threatening. Signs and symptoms of infusion reactions may include:
  • chills or shaking
  • itching or rash
  • flushing
  • shortness of breath or wheezing
  • dizziness
  • feeling like passing out
  • fever
  • back or neck pain
  • Complications, including graft-versus-host disease (GVHD), in people who have received a bone marrow (stem cell) transplant that uses donor stem cells (allogeneic). These complications can be serious and can lead to death. These complications may happen if you underwent transplantation either before or after being treated with TECENTRIQ. Your healthcare provider will monitor you for these complications.
    Getting medical treatment right away may help keep these problems from becoming more serious. Your healthcare provider will check you for these problems during your treatment with TECENTRIQ. Your healthcare provider may treat you with corticosteroid or hormone replacement medicines. Your healthcare provider may also need to delay or completely stop treatment with TECENTRIQ if you have severe side effects.
    What is TECENTRIQ?
    TECENTRIQ is a prescription medicine used to treat adults with:
  • a type of lung cancer called non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).
  • TECENTRIQ may be used alone as a treatment for your lung cancer:
  • to help prevent your lung cancer from coming back after your tumor(s) has been removed by surgery and you have received platinum-based chemotherapy, and
  • you have stage 2 to stage 3A NSCLC (talk to your healthcare provider about what these stages mean), and
  • your cancer tests positive for "PD-L1".
  • TECENTRIQ may be used alone as your first treatment when your lung cancer:
  • has spread or grown, and
  • your cancer tests positive for "high PD-L1", and
  • your tumor does not have an abnormal "EGFR" or "ALK" gene.
  • TECENTRIQ may be used with the medicines bevacizumab, paclitaxel, and carboplatin as your first treatment when your lung cancer:
  • has spread or grown, and
  • is a type called "non-squamous NSCLC", and
  • your tumor does not have an abnormal "EGFR" or "ALK" gene.
  • TECENTRIQ may be used with the medicines paclitaxel protein-bound and carboplatin as your first treatment when your lung cancer:
  • has spread or grown, and
  • is a type called "non-squamous NSCLC", and
  • your tumor does not have an abnormal "EGFR" or "ALK" gene.
  • TECENTRIQ may also be used alone when your lung cancer:
  • has spread or grown, and
  • you have tried chemotherapy that contains platinum, and it did not work or is no longer working.
  • if your tumor has an abnormal "EGFR" or "ALK" gene, you should have also tried an FDA-approved therapy for tumors with these abnormal genes, and it did not work or is no longer working.
  • adults with a type of lung cancer called small cell lung cancer (SCLC). TECENTRIQ may be used with the chemotherapy medicines carboplatin and etoposide as your first treatment when your lung cancer
  • is a type called "extensive-stage SCLC," which means that it has spread or grown.
  • adults with a type of liver cancer called hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). TECENTRIQ may be used with the medicine bevacizumab when your liver cancer:
  • has spread or cannot be removed by surgery, and
  • you have not received other medicines by mouth or injection through your vein (IV) to treat your cancer.
  • adults with a type of skin cancer called melanoma. TECENTRIQ may be used with the medicines cobimetinib and vemurafenib when your melanoma:
  • has spread to other parts of the body or cannot be removed by surgery, and
  • has a certain type of abnormal "BRAF" gene. Your healthcare provider will perform a test to make sure this TECENTRIQ combination is right for you.
  • adults and children 2 years of age and older with a type of soft tissue tumor (cancer) called alveolar soft part sarcoma (ASPS). TECENTRIQ may be used when your sarcoma:
  • has spread to other parts of the body or cannot be removed by surgery.
  • It is not known if TECENTRIQ is safe and effective when used:
  • in children younger than 2 years of age for the treatment of ASPS.
  • in children for the treatment of NSCLC, SCLC, HCC, or melanoma.
  • Before receiving TECENTRIQ, tell your healthcare provider about all of your medical conditions, including if you:
  • have immune system problems such as Crohn's disease, ulcerative colitis, or lupus
  • have received an organ transplant
  • have received or plan to receive a stem cell transplant that uses donor stem cells (allogeneic)
  • have received radiation treatment to your chest area
  • have a condition that affects your nervous system, such as myasthenia gravis or Guillain-Barré syndrome
  • are pregnant or plan to become pregnant. TECENTRIQ can harm your unborn baby. Tell your healthcare provider right away if you become pregnant or think you may be pregnant during treatment with TECENTRIQ. Females who are able to become pregnant:
  • Your healthcare provider should do a pregnancy test before you start treatment with TECENTRIQ.
  • You should use an effective method of birth control during your treatment and for at least 5 months after the last dose of TECENTRIQ.
  • are breastfeeding or plan to breastfeed. It is not known if TECENTRIQ passes into your breast milk. Do not breastfeed during treatment and for at least 5 months after the last dose of TECENTRIQ.
  • Tell your healthcare provider about all the medicines you take, including prescription and over-the-counter medicines, vitamins, and herbal supplements.
    How will I receive TECENTRIQ?
  • Your healthcare provider will give you TECENTRIQ into your vein through an intravenous (IV) line over 30 to 60 minutes.
  • TECENTRIQ is usually given every 2, 3, or 4 weeks.
  • Your healthcare provider will decide how many treatments you need.
  • Your healthcare provider will test your blood to check you for certain side effects.
  • For treatment of a type of skin cancer called melanoma, your healthcare provider will also prescribe you cobimetinib and vemurafenib. Take cobimetinib and vemurafenib exactly as your healthcare provider tells you.
  • If you miss any appointments, call your healthcare provider as soon as possible to reschedule your appointment.

    Clinical Studies

    14 CLINICAL STUDIES 14.1 Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer Adjuvant Treatment of Stage II-IIIA NSCLC with PD-L1 Expression ≥ 1% The efficacy of TECENTRIQ was evaluated in IMpower010 (NCT02486718), a multi-center, randomized, open-label trial for the adjuvant treatment of patients with NSCLC who had complete tumor resection and were eligible to receive cisplatin-based adjuvant chemotherapy. Eligible patients were required to have Stage IB (tumors ≥ 4 cm) – Stage IIIA NSCLC per the Union for International Cancer Control/American Joint Committee on Cancer staging system, 7th edition. Patients were excluded if they had a history of autoimmune disease; a history of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis, organizing pneumonia, drug-induced pneumonitis, idiopathic pneumonitis, or evidence of active pneumonitis; administration of a live, attenuated vaccine within 28 days prior to randomization; administration of systemic immunostimulatory agents within 4 weeks or systemic immunosuppressive medications within 2 weeks prior to randomization. A total of 1005 patients who had complete tumor resection and received cisplatin-based adjuvant chemotherapy were randomized (1:1) to receive TECENTRIQ 1200 mg intravenous infusion every 3 weeks for 16 cycles, unless disease recurrence or unacceptable toxicity occurred, or best supportive care (BSC). Randomization was stratified by sex, stage of disease, histology, and PD-L1 expression. Tumor assessments were conducted at baseline of the randomization phase and every 4 months for the first year following Cycle 1, Day 1 and then every 6 months until year five, then annually thereafter. The median age was 62 years (range: 26 to 84), and 67% of patients were male. The majority of patients were White (73%) and Asian (24%). Most patients were current or previous smokers (78%) and baseline ECOG performance status in patients was 0 (55%) or 1 (44%). Overall, 12% of patients had Stage IB, 47% had Stage II and 41% had Stage IIIA disease. PD-L1 expression, defined as the percentage of tumor cells expressing PD-L1 as measured by the VENTANA PD-L1 (SP263) assay, was ≥ 1% in 53% of patients, <1% in 44% and unknown in 2.6%. The primary efficacy outcome measure was disease-free survival (DFS) as assessed by the investigator. The primary efficacy analysis population (n = 476) was patients with Stage II – IIIA NSCLC with PD-L1 expression on ≥ 1% of tumor cells (PD-L1 ≥ 1% TC). DFS was defined as the time from the date of randomization to the date of occurrence of any of the following: first documented recurrence of disease, new primary NSCLC, or death due to any cause, whichever occurred first. A key secondary efficacy outcome measure was overall survival (OS) in the intent-to-treat population. At the time of the interim DFS analysis, the study demonstrated a statistically significant improvement in DFS in the PD-L1 ≥ 1% TC, Stage II – IIIA patient population. Efficacy results are presented in Table 22 and Figure 1 . Table 22 Efficacy Results from IMpower010 in Patients with Stage II - IIIA NSCLC with PD-L1 expression ≥ 1% TC Arm A: TECENTRIQ N = 248 Arm B: Best Supportive Care N = 228 CI = Confidence interval, NE = Not estimable, NR = Not reached Disease-Free Survival Number of events (%) 88 (35) 105 (46) Median, months NR 35.3 (95% CI) (36.1, NE) (29.0, NE) Hazard ratio Stratified by stage, sex, and histology (95% CI) 0.66 (0.50, 0.88) p-value 0.004 In a pre-specified secondary subgroup analysis of patients with PD-L1 TC ≥ 50% Stage II – IIIA NSCLC (n=229), the median DFS was not reached (95% CI: 42.3 months, NE) for patients in the TECENTRIQ arm and was 35.7 months (95% CI: 29.7, NE) for patients in the best supportive care arm, with a HR of 0.43 (95% CI: 0.27, 0.68). In an exploratory subgroup analysis of patients with PD-L1 TC 1-49% Stage II – IIIA NSCLC (n=247), the median DFS was 32.8 months (95% CI: 29.4, NE) for patients in the TECENTRIQ arm and 31.4 months (95% CI: 24.0, NE) for patients in the best supportive care arm, with a HR of 0.87 (95% CI: 0.60, 1.26). Figure 1: Kaplan-Meier Plot of Disease-Free Survival in IMpower010 in Patients with Stage II – IIIA NSCLC with PD-L1 expression ≥ 1% TC At the time of the DFS interim analysis, 19% of patients in the PD-L1 ≥1% TC Stage II – IIIA patient population had died. An exploratory analysis of OS in this population resulted in a stratified HR of 0.77 (95% CI: 0.51, 1.17). Figure 1 Metastatic Chemotherapy-Naïve NSCLC with High PD-L1 Expression The efficacy of TECENTRIQ was evaluated in IMpower110 (NCT02409342), a multicenter, international, randomized, open-label trial in patients with stage IV NSCLC whose tumors express PD-L1 (PD-L1 stained ≥ 1% of tumor cells [TC ≥ 1%] or PD-L1 stained tumor-infiltrating immune cells [IC] covering ≥ 1% of the tumor area [IC ≥ 1%]), who had received no prior chemotherapy for metastatic disease. PD-L1 tumor status was determined based on immunohistochemistry (IHC) testing using the VENTANA PD-L1 (SP142) Assay. The evaluation of efficacy is based on the subgroup of patients with high PD-L1 expression (TC ≥ 50% or IC ≥ 10%), excluding those with EGFR or ALK genomic tumor aberrations. The trial excluded patients with a history of autoimmune disease, administration of a live attenuated vaccine within 28 days prior to randomization, active or untreated CNS metastases, administration of systemic immunostimulatory agents within 4 weeks or systemic immunosuppressive medications within 2 weeks prior to randomization. Randomization was stratified by sex, ECOG performance status, histology (non-squamous vs. squamous) and PD-L1 expression (TC ≥ 1% and any IC vs. TC < 1% and IC ≥ 1%). Patients were randomized (1:1) to receive one of the following treatment arms: Arm A: TECENTRIQ 1200 mg every 3 weeks until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity Arm B: Platinum-based chemotherapy Arm B platinum-based chemotherapy regimens for non-squamous NSCLC consisted of cisplatin (75 mg/m 2 ) and pemetrexed (500 mg/m 2 ) OR carboplatin (AUC 6 mg/mL/min) and pemetrexed (500 mg/m 2 ) on Day 1 of each 21-day cycle for a maximum of 4 or 6 cycles followed by pemetrexed (500 mg/m 2 ) until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Arm B platinum-based chemotherapy regimens for squamous NSCLC consisted of cisplatin (75 mg/m 2 ) on Day 1 with gemcitabine (1250 mg/m 2 ) on Days 1 and 8 of each 21-day cycle OR carboplatin (AUC 5 mg/mL/min) on Day 1 with gemcitabine (1000 mg/m 2 ) on Days 1 and 8 of each 21-day cycle for a maximum of 4 or 6 cycles followed by best supportive care until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Administration of TECENTRIQ was permitted beyond RECIST-defined disease progression. Tumor assessments were conducted every 6 weeks for the first 48 weeks following Cycle 1, Day 1 and then every 9 weeks thereafter. Tumor specimens were evaluated prospectively using the VENTANA PD-L1 (SP142) Assay at a central laboratory and the results were used to define subgroups for pre-specified analyses. The major efficacy outcome measure was overall survival (OS) sequentially tested in the following subgroups of patients, excluding those with EGFR or ALK genomic tumor aberrations: TC ≥50% or IC ≥10%; TC ≥5% or IC ≥5%; and TC ≥1% or IC ≥1%. Among the 205 chemotherapy-naïve patients with stage IV NSCLC with high PD-L1 expression (TC ≥ 50% or IC ≥ 10%) excluding those with EGFR or ALK genomic tumor aberrations, the median age was 65.0 years (range: 33 to 87), and 70% of patients were male. The majority of patients were White (82%) and Asian (17%). Baseline ECOG performance status was 0 (36%) or 1 (64%); 88% were current or previous smokers; and 76% of patients had non-squamous disease while 24% of patients had squamous disease. The trial demonstrated a statistically significant improvement in OS for patients with high PD-L1 expression (TC ≥50% or IC ≥10%) at the time of the OS interim analysis. There was no statistically significant difference in OS for the other two PD-L1 subgroups (TC ≥5% or IC ≥5%; and TC ≥1% or IC ≥1%) at the interim or final analyses. Efficacy results for patients with NSCLC with high PD-L1 expression are presented in Table 23 and Figure 2 . Table 23: Efficacy Results from IMpower110 in Patients with NSCLC with High PD-L1 Expression (TC ≥ 50% or IC ≥ 10%) and without EGFR or ALK Genomic Tumor Aberrations Arm A: TECENTRIQ N = 107 Arm B: Platinum-Based Chemotherapy N = 98 CI=confidence interval; NE=not estimable Overall Survival Based on OS interim analysis. The median survival follow-up time in patients was 15.7 months. Deaths (%) 44 (41%) 57 (58%) Median, months 20.2 13.1 (95% CI) (16.5, NE) (7.4, 16.5) Hazard ratio Stratified by sex and ECOG performance status (95% CI) 0.59 (0.40, 0.89) p-value Based on the stratified log-rank test compared to Arm A 0.0106 Compared to the allocated alpha of 0.0413 (two-sided) for this interim analysis. Figure 2: Kaplan-Meier Plot of Overall Survival in IMpower110 in Patients with NSCLC with High PD-L1 Expression (TC ≥ 50% or IC ≥ 10%) and without EGFR or ALK Genomic Tumor Aberrations Investigator-assessed PFS showed an HR of 0.63 (95% CI: 0.45, 0.88), with median PFS of 8.1 months (95% CI: 6.8, 11.0) in the TECENTRIQ arm and 5 months (95% CI: 4.2, 5.7) in the platinum-based chemotherapy arm. The investigator-assessed confirmed ORR was 38% (95% CI: 29%, 48%) in the TECENTRIQ arm and 29% (95% CI: 20%, 39%) in the platinum-based chemotherapy arm. Figure 2 Metastatic Chemotherapy-Naive Non-Squamous NSCLC IMpower150 The efficacy of TECENTRIQ with bevacizumab, paclitaxel, and carboplatin was evaluated in IMpower150 (NCT02366143), a multicenter, international, randomized (1:1:1), open-label trial in patients with metastatic non-squamous NSCLC. Patients with stage IV non-squamous NSCLC who had received no prior chemotherapy for metastatic disease but could have received prior EGFR or ALK kinase inhibitor if appropriate, regardless of PD-L1 or T-effector gene (tGE) status and ECOG performance status 0 or 1 were eligible. The trial excluded patients with a history of autoimmune disease, administration of a live attenuated vaccine within 28 days prior to randomization, active or untreated CNS metastases, administration of systemic immunostimulatory agents within 4 weeks or systemic immunosuppressive medications within 2 weeks prior to randomization, or clear tumor infiltration into the thoracic great vessels or clear cavitation of pulmonary lesions as seen on imaging. Randomization was stratified by sex, presence of liver metastases, and PD-L1 expression status on tumor cells (TC) and tumor-infiltrating immune cells (IC) as follows: TC3 and any IC vs. TC0/1/2 and IC2/3 vs. TC0/1/2 and IC0/1. Patients were randomized to one of the following three treatment arms: Arm A: TECENTRIQ 1200 mg, paclitaxel 175 mg/m 2 or 200 mg/m 2 and carboplatin AUC 6 mg/mL/min on Day 1 of each 21-day cycle for a maximum of 4 or 6 cycles Arm B: TECENTRIQ 1200 mg, bevacizumab 15 mg/kg, paclitaxel 175 mg/m 2 or 200 mg/m 2 , and carboplatin AUC 6 mg/mL/min on Day 1 of each 21-day cycle for a maximum of 4 or 6 cycles Arm C: bevacizumab 15 mg/kg, paclitaxel 175 mg/m 2 or 200 mg/m 2 , and carboplatin AUC 6 mg/mL/min on Day 1 of each 21-day cycle for a maximum of 4 or 6 cycles Patients who had not experienced disease progression following the completion or cessation of platinum-based chemotherapy, received: Arm A: TECENTRIQ 1200 mg intravenously on Day 1 of each 21-day cycle until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity Arm B: TECENTRIQ 1200 mg and bevacizumab 15 mg/kg intravenously on Day 1 of each 21-day cycle until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity Arm C: bevacizumab 15 mg/kg intravenously on Day 1 of each 21-day cycle until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity Tumor assessments were conducted every 6 weeks for the first 48 weeks following Cycle 1, Day 1 and then every 9 weeks thereafter. Tumor specimens were evaluated prior to randomization for PD-L1 tumor expression using the VENTANA PD-L1 (SP142) assay at a central laboratory. Tumor tissue was collected at baseline for expression of tGE signature and evaluation was performed using a clinical trial assay in a central laboratory prior to the analysis of efficacy outcome measures. Major efficacy outcome measures for comparison of Arms B and C were progression free survival (PFS) by RECIST v1.1 in the tGE-WT (patients with high expression of T-effector gene signature [tGE], excluding those with EGFR- and ALK-positive NSCLC [WT]) and in the ITT-WT subpopulations and overall survival (OS) in the ITT-WT subpopulation. Additional efficacy outcome measures for comparison of Arms B and C or Arms A and C were PFS and OS in the ITT population, OS in the tGE-WT subpopulation, and ORR/DoR in the tGE-WT and ITT-WT subpopulations. A total of 1202 patients were enrolled across the three arms of whom 1045 were in the ITT-WT subpopulation and 447 were in the tGE-WT subpopulation. The demographic information is limited to the 800 patients enrolled in Arms B and C where efficacy has been demonstrated. The median age was 63 years (range: 31 to 90), and 60% of patients were male. The majority of patients were White (82%), 13% of patients were Asian, 10% were Hispanic, and 2% of patients were Black. Clinical sites in Asia (enrolling 13% of the study population) received paclitaxel at a dose of 175 mg/m 2 while the remaining 87% received paclitaxel at a dose of 200 mg/m 2 . Approximately 14% of patients had liver metastases at baseline, and most patients were current or previous smokers (80%). Baseline ECOG performance status was 0 (43%) or 1 (57%). PD-L1 was TC3 and any IC in 12%, TC0/1/2 and IC2/3 in 13%, and TC0/1/2 and IC0/1 in 75%. The demographics for the 696 patients in the ITT-WT subpopulation were similar to the ITT population except for the absence of patients with EGFR- or ALK- positive NSCLC. The trial demonstrated a statistically significant improvement in PFS between Arms B and C in both the tGE-WT and ITT-WT subpopulations, but did not demonstrate a significant difference for either subpopulation between Arms A and C based on the final PFS analyses. In the interim analysis of OS, a statistically significant improvement was observed for Arm B compared to Arm C, but not for Arm A compared to Arm C. Efficacy results for the ITT-WT subpopulation are presented in Table 24 and Figure 3 . Table 24: Efficacy Results in ITT-WT Population in IMpower150 Arm C: Bevacizumab, Paclitaxel and Carboplatin Arm B: TECENTRIQ with Bevacizumab, Paclitaxel, and Carboplatin Arm A: TECENTRIQ with Paclitaxel, and Carboplatin N = 337 N = 359 N = 349 CI=confidence interval Overall Survival Based on OS interim analysis Deaths (%) 197 (59%) 179 (50%) 179 (51%) Median, months 14.7 19.2 19.4 (95% CI) (13.3, 16.9) (17.0, 23.8) (15.7, 21.3) Hazard ratio Stratified by sex, presence of liver metastases, and PD-L1 expression status on TC and IC (95% CI) --- 0.78 (0.64, 0.96) 0.84 (0.72, 1.08) p-value Based on the stratified log-rank test compared to Arm C --- 0.016 Compared to the allocated α=0.0174 (two sided) for this interim analysis 0.204 Compared to the allocated α=0.0128 (two sided) for this interim analysis Progression-Free Survival As determined by independent review facility (IRF) per RECIST v1.1 (Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors v1.1) Number of events (%) 247 (73%) 247 (69%) 245 (70%) Median, months 7.0 8.5 6.7 (95% CI) (6.3, 7.9) (7.3, 9.7) (5.6, 6.9) Hazard ratio (95% CI) --- 0.71 (0.59, 0.85) 0.94 (0.79, 1.13) p-value --- 0.0002 Compared to the allocated α=0.006 (two sided) for the final PFS analysis 0.5219 Objective Response Rate Number of responders (%) 142 (42%) 196 (55%) 150 (43%) (95% CI) (37, 48) (49, 60) (38, 48) Complete Response 3 (1%) 14 (4%) 9 (3%) Partial Response 139 (41%) 182 (51%) 141 (40%) Duration of Response n = 142 n = 196 n = 150 Median, months 6.5 10.8 9.5 (95% CI) (5.6, 7.6) (8.4, 13.9) (7.0, 13.0) Figure 3: Kaplan-Meier Curves for Overall Survival in ITT-WT Population in IMpower150 Exploratory analyses showed that the subset of patients in the four drug regimen arm who were ADA positive by week 4 (30%) appeared to have similar efficacy (effect on overall survival) as compared to patients who tested negative for treatment-emergent ADA by week 4 (70%) [see, Clinical Pharmacology (12.6) ] . In an exploratory analysis, propensity score matching was conducted to compare ADA positive patients in the TECENTRIQ, bevacizumab, paclitaxel, and carboplatin arm with a matched population in the bevacizumab, paclitaxel, and carboplatin arm. Similarly ADA negative patients in the TECENTRIQ, bevacizumab, paclitaxel, and carboplatin arm were compared with a matched population in the bevacizumab, paclitaxel, and carboplatin arm. Propensity score matching factors were: baseline sum of longest tumor size (BSLD), baseline ECOG, baseline albumin, baseline LDH, sex, tobacco history, metastatic site, TC level, and IC level. The hazard ratio comparing the ADA-positive subgroup with its matched control was 0.69 (95% CI: 0.44, 1.07). The hazard ratio comparing the ADA-negative subgroup with its matched control was 0.64 (95% CI: 0.46, 0.90). Figure 3 IMpower130 The efficacy of TECENTRIQ with paclitaxel protein-bound and carboplatin was evaluated in IMpower130 (NCT02367781), a multicenter, randomized (2:1), open-label trial in patients with stage IV non-squamous NSCLC. Patients with Stage IV non-squamous NSCLC who had received no prior chemotherapy for metastatic disease, but could have received prior EGFR or ALK kinase inhibitor, if appropriate, were eligible. The trial excluded patients with history of autoimmune disease, administration of live attenuated vaccine within 28 days prior to randomization, administration of immunostimulatory agents within 4 weeks or systemic immunosuppressive medications within 2 weeks prior to randomization, and active or untreated CNS metastases. Randomization was stratified by sex, presence of liver metastases, and PD-L1 tumor expression according to the VENTANA PD-L1 (SP142) assay as follows: TC3 and any IC vs. TC0/1/2 and IC2/3 vs. TC0/1/2 and IC0/1. Patients were randomized to one of the following treatment regimens: TECENTRIQ 1200 mg on Day 1, paclitaxel protein-bound 100 mg/m 2 on Days 1, 8, and 15, and carboplatin AUC 6 mg/mL/min on Day 1 of each 21-day cycle for a maximum of 4 or 6 cycles followed by TECENTRIQ 1200 mg once every 3 weeks until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity, or Paclitaxel protein-bound 100 mg/m 2 on Days 1, 8 and 15 and carboplatin AUC 6 mg/mL/min on Day 1 of each 21-day cycle for a maximum of 4 or 6 cycles followed by best supportive care or pemetrexed. Tumor assessments were conducted every 6 weeks for the first 48 weeks, then every 9 weeks thereafter. Major efficacy outcome measures were PFS by RECIST v1.1 and OS in the subpopulation of patients evaluated for and documented to have no EGFR or ALK genomic tumor aberrations (ITT-WT). A total of 724 patients were enrolled; of these, 681 (94%) were in the ITT-WT population. The median age was 64 years (range: 18 to 86) and 59% were male. The majority of patients were white (90%), 2% of patients were Asian, 5% were Hispanic, and 4% were Black. Baseline ECOG performance status was 0 (41%) or 1 (58%). Most patients were current or previous smokers (90%). PD-L1 tumor expression was TC0/1/2 and IC0/1 in 73%; TC3 and any IC in 14%; and TC0/1/2 and IC2/3 in 13%. Efficacy results for the ITT-WT population are presented in Table 25 and Figure 4 .

Patients with a history of autoimmune disease, symptomatic or corticosteroid-dependent brain metastases, or requiring systemic immunosuppression within 2 weeks prior to enrollment were ineligible. Randomization was stratified by PD-L1 expression tumor-infiltrating immune cells (IC), the number of prior chemotherapy regimens (1 vs. 2), and histology (squamous vs. non-squamous). Patients were randomized to receive TECENTRIQ 1200 mg intravenously every 3 weeks until unacceptable toxicity, radiographic progression, or clinical progression or docetaxel 75 mg/m 2 intravenously every 3 weeks until unacceptable toxicity or disease progression. Tumor assessments were conducted every 6 weeks for the first 36 weeks and every 9 weeks thereafter. Major efficacy outcome measure was overall survival (OS) in the first 850 randomized patients and OS in the subgroup of patients with PD-L1-expressing tumors (defined as ≥ 1% PD-L1 expression on tumor cells [TC] or immune cells [IC]). Additional efficacy outcome measures were OS in all randomized patients (n = 1225), OS in subgroups based on PD-L1 expression, overall response rate (ORR), and progression free survival as assessed by the investigator per RECIST v.1.1. Among the first 850 randomized patients, the median age was 64 years (33 to 85 years) and 47% were ≥ 65 years old; 61% were male; 70% were White and 21% were Asian; 15% were current smokers and 67% were former smokers; and 37% had baseline ECOG PS of 0 and 63% had a baseline ECOG PS of 1. Nearly all (94%) had metastatic disease, 74% had non-squamous histology, 75% had received only one prior platinum-based chemotherapy regimen, and 55% of patients had PD-L1-expressing tumors. Efficacy results are presented in Table 26 and Figure 5 .

Of the 850 patients, 16% were classified as having high PD-L1 expression, defined as having PD-L1 expression on ≥ 50% of TC or ≥ 10% of IC. In an exploratory efficacy subgroup analysis of OS based on PD-L1 expression, the hazard ratio was 0.41 (95% CI: 0.27, 0.64) in the high PD-L1 expression subgroup and 0.82 (95% CI: 0.68, 0.98) in patients who did not have high PD-L1 expression. Exploratory analyses showed that the subset of patients who were ADA positive by week 4 (21%) appeared to have less efficacy (effect on overall survival) as compared to patients who tested negative for treatment-emergent ADA by week 4 (79%) [see Clinical Pharmacology (12.6) ] . ADA positive patients by week 4 appeared to have similar OS compared to docetaxel-treated patients. In an exploratory analysis, propensity score matching was conducted to compare ADA positive patients in the atezolizumab arm with a matched population in the docetaxel arm and ADA negative patients in the atezolizumab arm with a matched population in the docetaxel arm. Propensity score matching factors were: baseline sum of longest tumor size (BSLD), baseline ECOG, histology (squamous vs. non-squamous), baseline albumin, baseline LDH, gender, tobacco history, metastases status (advanced or local), metastatic site, TC level, and IC level. The hazard ratio comparing the ADA positive subgroup with its matched control was 0.89 (95% CI: 0.61, 1.3). The hazard ratio comparing the ADA negative subgroup with its matched control was 0.68 (95% CI: 0.55, 0.83). Figure 5 14.2 Small Cell Lung Cancer The efficacy of TECENTRIQ with carboplatin and etoposide was investigated in IMpower133 (NCT02763579), a randomized (1:1), multicenter, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial in 403 patients with ES-SCLC. IMpower133 enrolled patients with ES-SCLC who had received no prior chemotherapy for extensive stage disease and ECOG performance status 0 or 1. The trial excluded patients with active or untreated CNS metastases, history of autoimmune disease, administration of a live, attenuated vaccine within 4 weeks prior to randomization, or administration of systemic immunosuppressive medications within 1 week prior to randomization. Randomization was stratified by sex, ECOG performance status, and presence of brain metastases. Patients were randomized to receive one of the following two treatment arms: TECENTRIQ 1200 mg and carboplatin AUC 5 mg/mL/min on Day 1 and etoposide 100 mg/m 2 intravenously on Days 1, 2 and 3 of each 21-day cycle for a maximum of 4 cycles followed by TECENTRIQ 1200 mg once every 3 weeks until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity, or placebo and carboplatin AUC 5 mg/mL/min on Day 1 and etoposide 100 mg/m 2 intravenously on Days 1, 2, and 3 of each 21-day cycle for a maximum of 4 cycles followed by placebo once every 3 weeks until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Administration of TECENTRIQ was permitted beyond RECIST-defined disease progression. Tumor assessments were conducted every 6 weeks for the first 48 weeks following Cycle 1, Day 1 and then every 9 weeks thereafter. Patients treated beyond disease progression had tumor assessment conducted every 6 weeks until treatment discontinuation. Major efficacy outcome measures were OS and PFS as assessed by investigator per RECIST v1.1 in the intent-to-treat population. Additional efficacy outcome measures included ORR and DoR as assessed by investigator per RECIST v1.1. A total of 403 patients were randomized, including 201 to the TECENTRIQ arm and 202 to the chemotherapy alone arm. The median age was 64 years (range 26 to 90) and 65% were male. The majority of patients were White (80%); 17% were Asian, 4% were Hispanic and 1% were Black. Baseline ECOG performance status was 0 (35%) or 1 (65%); 9% of patients had a history of brain metastases, and 97% were current or previous smokers. Efficacy results are presented in Table 27 and Figure 6 .

Randomization was stratified by geographic region (Asia excluding Japan vs. rest of world), macrovascular invasion and/or extrahepatic spread (presence vs. absence), baseline AFP (<400 vs. ≥400 ng/mL), and by ECOG performance status (0 vs. 1). A total of 501 patients were randomized (2:1) to receive either TECENTRIQ as an intravenous infusion of 1200 mg, followed by 15 mg/kg bevacizumab, on the same day every 3 weeks or sorafenib 400 mg given orally twice daily, until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Patients could discontinue either TECENTRIQ or bevacizumab (e.g., due to adverse events) and continue on single-agent therapy until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity associated with the single-agent. The study enrolled patients who were ECOG performance score 0 or 1 and who had not received prior systemic treatment. Patients were required to be evaluated for the presence of varices within 6 months prior to treatment, and were excluded if they had variceal bleeding within 6 months prior to treatment, untreated or incompletely treated varices with bleeding, or high risk of bleeding. Patients with Child-Pugh B or C cirrhosis, moderate or severe ascites; history of hepatic encephalopathy; a history of autoimmune disease; administration of a live, attenuated vaccine within 4 weeks prior to randomization; administration of systemic immunostimulatory agents within 4 weeks or systemic immunosuppressive medications within 2 weeks prior to randomization; or untreated or corticosteroid-dependent brain metastases were excluded. Tumor assessments were performed every 6 weeks for the first 54 weeks and every 9 weeks thereafter. The demographics and baseline disease characteristics of the study population were balanced between the treatment arms. The median age was 65 years (range: 26 to 88) and 83% of patients were male. The majority of patients were Asian (57%) or White (35%); 40% were from Asia (excluding Japan). Approximately 75% of patients presented with macrovascular invasion and/or extrahepatic spread and 37% had a baseline AFP ≥400 ng/mL. Baseline ECOG performance status was 0 (62%) or 1 (38%). HCC risk factors were Hepatitis B in 48% of patients, Hepatitis C in 22%, and 31% of patients had non-viral liver disease. The majority of patients had BCLC stage C (82%) disease at baseline, while 16% had stage B, and 3% had stage A. The major efficacy outcome measures were overall survival (OS) and independent review facility (IRF)-assessed progression free survival (PFS) per RECIST v1.1. Additional efficacy outcome measures were IRF-assessed overall response rate (ORR) per RECIST and mRECIST. Efficacy results are presented in Table 28 and Figure 7 .

ADA-positive patients by week 6 appeared to have similar overall survival compared to sorafenib-treated patients. In an exploratory analysis, inverse probability weighting was conducted to compare ADA-positive patients and ADA-negative patients in the TECENTRIQ and bevacizumab arm to the sorafenib arm. Inverse probability weighting factors were: baseline sum of longest tumor size (BSLD), baseline ECOG, baseline albumin, baseline LDH, sex, age, race, geographic region, weight, neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio, AFP (<400 ng/mL vs ≥400 ng/mL), number of metastatic sites, MVI and/or EHS present at study entry, etiology (HBV vs. HCV vs. non-viral) and Child-Pugh Score (A5 vs. A6). The OS hazard ratio comparing the ADA-positive subgroup of the TECENTRIQ and bevacizumab arm to sorafenib was 0.93 (95% CI: 0.57, 1.53). The OS hazard ratio comparing the ADA-negative subgroup to sorafenib was 0.39 (95% CI: 0.26, 0.60). Figure 7 14.4 Melanoma The efficacy of TECENTRIQ in combination with cobimetinib and vemurafenib was evaluated in a double-blind, randomized (1:1), placebo-controlled, multicenter trial (IMspire150; NCT02908672) conducted in 514 patients. Randomization was stratified by geographic location (North America vs. Europe vs. Australia, New Zealand, and others) and baseline lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) [less than or equal to upper limit of normal (ULN) vs. greater than ULN]. Eligible patients were required to have previously untreated unresectable or metastatic BRAF V600 mutation-positive melanoma as detected by a locally available test and centrally confirmed with the FoundationOne™ assay. Patients were excluded if they had history of autoimmune disease; administration of a live, attenuated vaccine within 28 days prior to randomization; administration of systemic immunostimulatory agents within 4 weeks or systemic immunosuppressive medications within 2 weeks prior to randomization; and active or untreated CNS metastases. TECENTRIQ was initiated after patients received a 28-day treatment cycle of cobimetinib 60 mg orally once daily (21 days on / 7 days off) and vemurafenib 960 mg orally twice daily Days 1-21 and 720 mg orally twice daily Days 22-28. Patients received TECENTRIQ 840 mg intravenous infusion over 60 minutes every 2 weeks in combination with cobimetinib 60 mg orally once daily and vemurafenib 720 mg orally twice daily, or placebo in combination with cobimetinib 60 mg orally once daily and vemurafenib 960 mg orally twice daily. Treatment continued until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. There was no crossover at the time of disease progression. Tumor assessments were performed every 8 weeks (± 1 week) for the first 24 months and every 12 weeks (± 1 week) thereafter. The major efficacy outcome measure was investigator-assessed progression-free survival (PFS) per RECIST v1.1. Additional efficacy outcomes included PFS assessed by an independent central review, investigator-assessed ORR, OS, and DOR. The median age of the study population was 54 years (range: 22-88), 58% of patients were male, 95% were White, a baseline ECOG performance status of 0 (77%) or 1 (23%), 33% had elevated LDH, 94% had metastatic disease, 60% were Stage IV (M1C), 56% had less than three metastatic sites at baseline, 3% had prior treatment for brain metastases, 30% had liver metastases at baseline, and 14% had received prior adjuvant systemic therapy. Based on central testing, 74% were identified as having a V600E mutation, 11% as having V600K mutation, and 1% as having V600D or V600R mutations. Efficacy results are summarized in Table 29 and Figure 8 . Patients had a median survival follow up time of 18.9 months.

The median OS was 28.8 months with 93 (36%) deaths in the TECENTRIQ plus cobimetinib and vemurafenib arm, and 25.1 months with 112 (43%) deaths in the placebo plus cobimetinib and vemurafenib arm. The hazard ratio for OS was 0.85 (95% CI: 0.64, 1.11) and the p-value was 0.2310. Figure 8 14.5 Alveolar soft part sarcoma (ASPS) The efficacy of TECENTRIQ was evaluated in study ML39345 (NCT03141684), an open-label, single-arm study, in 49 adult and pediatric patients aged 2 years and older with unresectable or metastatic ASPS. Eligible patients were required to have histologically or cytologically confirmed ASPS that was not curable by surgery, and an ECOG performance status of ≤ 2. Patients were excluded if they had known primary central nervous system (CNS) malignancy or symptomatic CNS metastases, known clinically significant liver disease, or history of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis, pneumonitis, organizing pneumonia, or evidence of active pneumonitis on screening chest computed tomography (CT) scan. Adult patients received 1200 mg intravenously and pediatric patients received 15 mg/kg (up to a maximum of 1200 mg) intravenously once every 21 days until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. The major efficacy outcomes were Overall Response Rate (ORR) and Duration of Response (DOR) by Independent Review Committee according to Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) v1.1. A total of 49 patients were enrolled. The median age of patients was 31 years (range: 12-70); 2% of adult patients (n=47) were ≥65 years of age and the pediatric patients (n=2) were ≥12 years of age; 51% of patients were female, 55% White, 29% Black or African American, 10% Asian; 53% had an ECOG performance status of 0 and 45% had an ECOG performance status of 1. All patients had prior surgery for ASPS and 55% received at least one prior line of treatment for ASPS; 55% received radiotherapy and 53% received chemotherapy. Of the patients who reported staging at initial diagnosis, all were Stage IV. Efficacy results of this study are summarized in Table 30 .

    8.5 Geriatric Use Of 2616 patients with metastatic NSCLC and other tumor types treated with single agent TECENTRIQ in clinical studies, 49% were 65 years and over and 15% were 75 years and over. Of 2421 patients with NSCLC and SCLC treated with TECENTRIQ in combination with other antineoplastic drugs in clinical studies, 48% were 65 years and over and 10% were 75 years and over. No overall differences in safety or effectiveness were observed between patients aged 65 years or older and younger patients.

    Pediatric Use

    8.4 Pediatric Use Alveolar Soft Part Sarcoma The safety and effectiveness of TECENTRIQ for unresectable or metastatic ASPS have been established in pediatric patients aged 2 years and older. Use of TECENTRIQ for this indication is supported by evidence from an adequate and well controlled study of TECENTRIQ in adults and 2 adolescent pediatric patients (≥12 years of age) with ASPS with additional pharmacokinetic and safety data in pediatric patients 2 years to <17 years. These data suggest that atezolizumab exposure in pediatric patients aged 2 years and older is comparable with that of adults and is expected to result in similar safety and efficacy to that of adults [see Adverse Reactions (6.1) , Pharmacokinetics (12.3) , Clinical Studies (14.5) ] . The course of unresectable or metastatic ASPS is sufficiently similar between pediatric patients 2 to 11 years old and that of adults and adolescent patients to allow extrapolation of efficacy and safety to pediatric patients 2 years and older. The safety and effectiveness of TECENTRIQ for ASPS have not been established in pediatric patients younger than 2 years of age. Solid Tumors and Lymphomas The safety and effectiveness of TECENTRIQ in pediatric patients have not been established in non-small cell lung cancer, small-cell lung cancer, hepatocellular carcinoma, or melanoma. The safety and effectiveness of TECENTRIQ were assessed, but not established in a single-arm, multi-center, multi-cohort trial (NCT02541604) in 60 pediatric patients aged 7 months to <17 years with relapsed or progressive solid tumors and lymphomas. No new safety signals were observed in pediatric patients in this study.

    Pregnancy

    8.1 Pregnancy Risk Summary Based on its mechanism of action [see Clinical Pharmacology (12.1) ] , TECENTRIQ can cause fetal harm when administered to a pregnant woman. There are no available data on the use of TECENTRIQ in pregnant women. Animal studies have demonstrated that inhibition of the PD-L1/PD-1 pathway can lead to increased risk of immune-related rejection of the developing fetus resulting in fetal death (see Data ) . Advise females of reproductive potential of the potential risk to a fetus. In the U.S. general population, the estimated background risk of major birth defects and miscarriage in clinically recognized pregnancies is 2% to 4% and 15% to 20%, respectively. Data Animal Data Animal reproduction studies have not been conducted with TECENTRIQ to evaluate its effect on reproduction and fetal development. A literature-based assessment of the effects on reproduction demonstrated that a central function of the PD-L1/PD-1 pathway is to preserve pregnancy by maintaining maternal immune tolerance to a fetus. Blockage of PD-L1 signaling has been shown in murine models of pregnancy to disrupt tolerance to a fetus and to result in an increase in fetal loss; therefore, potential risks of administering TECENTRIQ during pregnancy include increased rates of abortion or stillbirth. As reported in the literature, there were no malformations related to the blockade of PD-L1/PD-1 signaling in the offspring of these animals; however, immune-mediated disorders occurred in PD-1 and PD-L1 knockout mice. Based on its mechanism of action, fetal exposure to atezolizumab may increase the risk of developing immune-mediated disorders or altering the normal immune response.

As human IgG is excreted in human milk, the potential for absorption and harm to the infant is unknown. Because of the potential for serious adverse reactions in breastfed infants from TECENTRIQ, advise women not to breastfeed during treatment and for at least 5 months after the last dose. 8.3 Females and Males of Reproductive Potential Pregnancy Testing Verify pregnancy status in females of reproductive potential prior to initiating TECENTRIQ [see Use in Specific Populations (8.1) ] . Contraception Females Based on its mechanism of action, TECENTRIQ can cause fetal harm when administered to a pregnant woman [see Use in Specific Populations (8.1) ] . Advise females of reproductive potential to use effective contraception during treatment with TECENTRIQ and for at least 5 months following the last dose. Infertility Females Based on animal studies, TECENTRIQ may impair fertility in females of reproductive potential while receiving treatment [see Nonclinical Toxicology (13.1) ] . 8.4 Pediatric Use Alveolar Soft Part Sarcoma The safety and effectiveness of TECENTRIQ for unresectable or metastatic ASPS have been established in pediatric patients aged 2 years and older.

No new safety signals were observed in pediatric patients in this study. 8.5 Geriatric Use Of 2616 patients with metastatic NSCLC and other tumor types treated with single agent TECENTRIQ in clinical studies, 49% were 65 years and over and 15% were 75 years and over. Of 2421 patients with NSCLC and SCLC treated with TECENTRIQ in combination with other antineoplastic drugs in clinical studies, 48% were 65 years and over and 10% were 75 years and over. No overall differences in safety or effectiveness were observed between patients aged 65 years or older and younger patients.
