PurposeImmune Checkpoint Inhibitor (ICI) regimens are approved for first-line treatment of metastatic nononcogene-driven NSCLC. Guidelines do not differentiate which patients with PD-L1 ≥ 50% should receive ICI monotherapy. The clinically validated PROphet NSCLC plasma proteomic-based test is designed to inform this therapeutic decision. MethodsOne hundred oncologists were presented with 3 “virtual” metastatic NSCLC cases with PD-L1 scores and asked to recommend an approved first-line regimen. They then watched an online educational webinar on the PROphetNSCLC test. Postwebinar, the same cases were represented with the addition of a PROphet result, and oncologists again recommended a first-line regimen. Responses were compared to assess the impact on first-line treatment selection. ResultsTreatment recommendation changed in 39.6% of PROphet-tested cases, with 93% of physicians changing at least 1 case. In the PD-L1 ≥ 50% group, 89% of physicians changed their recommendation, followed by 77%, in PD-L1 < 1%, and 36% in PD-L1 1% to 49%. In the PD-L1 ≥ 50%, PROphet POSITIVE group, the recommendation for ICI monotherapy increased from 60% to 89%. For the PD-L1 ≥ 50%, PROphet NEGATIVE group, the recommendation for monotherapy dropped from 60% to 9%. In the PD-L1 < 1%, PROphet NEGATIVE group, 35% of patients were spared toxicity from ICI compared to 11% in PROphet untested cases. ConclusionAdding PROphet to PD-L1 expression impacted therapeutic decision making in first-line NSCLC. PROphet identifies those predicted to have an overall survival benefit from ICI monotherapy versus combination versus chemotherapy, improving the probability of efficacy and reducing toxicity for some patients.
