Potassium competitive acid blocker (P-CAB) is a new class of acid blockers which has distinct advantages compared to other conventional proton pump inhibitors (PPI) in terms of the effectiveness for acid suppression. However, the impact of its use on the effectiveness of pembrolizumab in these patients is still unclear. We investigated the impact of P-CAB use on the effectiveness of pembrolizumab in patients with metastatic UC. METHODS: We retrospectively analyzed the records of 227 patients with metastatic UC treated with pembrolizumab. The primary outcome was overall survival (OS). Immune progression-free survival (iPFS) per immune response evaluation criteria in solid tumors were also compared. Multivariable Cox regression models were performed to evaluate the association between P-CAB use and these outcomes. RESULTS: Overall, 30 (13.2%) and 56 (24.7%) patients used P-CABs and PPIs, respectively. Median follow-up period of was 12.8 months (95% CI: 10.6 to 19.3). There were significant differences in baseline platelet count (median; P-CAB users vs. PPI users vs. non-users: 292.5 vs. 271 vs. 249 *1000/uL; P=0.047) and the use of concomitant analgesics (P-CAB users vs. PPI users vs. non-users: 22 [73.3%] vs. 28 [50.0%] vs. 38 [27.0%]; P <0.001). Multivariable Cox regression models showed that both P-CAB and PPI use were associated with worse OS (P-CAB, hazard ratio [HR]: 2.51, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.44 to 4.38, P=0.001; PPI, HR: 1.58, 95% CI: 0.96 to 2.61, P=0.072) and iPFS (P-CAB, HR: 1.79, 95% CI: 1.12 to 2.86, P=0.015; PPI, HR: 1.56, 95% CI: 1.07 to 2.28, P=0.021). CONCLUSIONS: Similar to PPI, P-CAB use was significantly associated with worse survival of patients with metastatic UC treated with pembrolizumab.
