E.2 Objective of the trial |
E.2.1 | Main objective of the trial |
We raise the hypothesis that inhibition of immune PD-1+/- CTLA-4 check-point(s) would delay tumor progression in patients with unresectable MPM, experiencing disease progression after one or two lines of chemotherapy including at least first-line with pemetrexed and platinum, without altering significantly the quality of life of patients. |
|
E.2.2 | Secondary objectives of the trial |
Toxicity, Progression-Free Survival, Overall Survival, Quality of Life, evaluation of PD-L1 immunohistochemistry score as a predictor of DCR, prognostic impact of biomarkers (exploratory studies). |
|
E.2.3 | Trial contains a sub-study | No |
E.3 | Principal inclusion criteria |
1. Histologically proved diagnosis of unresectable malignant pleural Mesothelioma (MPM) 2. Available (archival and/or fresh) pathological samples for centralized PD-L1 expression assessment by immunohistochemistry 3. Age ≥ 18 years old; male and female 4. ECOG Performance status 0-1 5. Weight loss < 10% during last 3 months 6. Life expectancy > 12 weeks 7. Documented progression of the MPM, assessed by computed tomography (CT) –Scan. 8. Measurable disease, defined as at least 1 lesion (measurable) that can be accurately assessed at baseline by CT-Scan and is suitable for repeated assessment using modified Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors [RECIST] for pleural mesothelioma (Byrne 2004; Therasse 2006). 9. Previous treatment by 1 or 2 systemic chemotherapy lines (1 line of chemotherapy considered if the patient received ≥2 cycles of this chemotherapy), including at least one line with pemetrexed in combination with platinum agent (i.e. “gold standard chemotherapy in MPM; triplet including bevacizumab also accepted)

E.4 | Principal exclusion criteria |
1. Patients with primitive peritoneal, pericardial, testis or tunica vaginalis mesothelioma 2. Patients with a recent history of other malignancies except adequately treated non-melanoma skin cancer, and curatively treated in-situ cancer. Ppatients with prostate adenocarcinoma diagnosed less than 5 years could be included in case of localized prostate cancer with good outcome according the Amico classification: ≤ T2a and Gleason Score ≤6 and PSA blood level ≤10 ng/ml, and treated with curative intent (surgery or radiotherapy) without chemotherapy. Patients with history of solid tumors, including adenocarcinoma, treated with curative intent and without any evidence of disease >5 years can be included as well. 3. Brain metastasis, except if surgically resected or treated with stereotaxic radiotherapy with no evolution within the 3 months before inclusion, and asymptomatic patient 4. History of primary immunodeficiency, history of organ transplant that requires therapeutic immunosuppression and the use of immunosuppressive agents within 28 days of randomization or a prior history of severe (grade 3 or 4) immune mediated toxicity from other immune therapy. 5. Subjects with a condition requiring systemic treatment with either corticosteroids (> 10 mg daily prednisone equivalent) or other immunosuppressive medications within 14 days of randomization. Intranasal/inhaled or topical steroids, and adrenal replacement steroid doses ≤ 10 mg daily prednisone equivalent, are permitted in the absence of active autoimmune disease.
