• Abstract only 323 Background: In CheckMate 9ER, patients (pts) with aRCC were randomized 1:1 to nivolumab 240 mg IV Q2W + cabozantinib 40 mg PO QD (N+C; n = 323) or sunitinib (S) 50 mg PO (4 weeks of 6-week cycles; n = 328). As reported previously, at a median follow-up of 18.1 months, N+C led to superior progression-free and overall survival and more favorable HRQoL than S. We report results of HRQoL analyses for 32.9-months follow-up. Methods: Disease-related symptoms (DRS) were evaluated using the FKSI-19 instrument and HRQoL with the EQ-5D-3L visual analogue scale (VAS). Change from baseline (BL) was assessed using mixed-model repeated measures (MMRM), adjusting for baseline scores and stratification factors, and included all common timepoints (at BL and every 6 wks) through week 151. Time to deterioration analysis was conducted for first (TFD), confirmed (TCD) and definitive (TDD) deterioration events using Kaplan-Meier estimates and Cox proportional hazards models. Bother with treatment side effects (item GP5 in FKSI-19) was assessed using a generalized estimating equations model with response dichotomized as minimal bother (“not at all” or “a little bit”) vs notable bother (“somewhat”, “quite a bit”, and “very much”). HRQoL endpoints were exploratory and P-values are nominal and descriptive. Results: Group mean scores over time show that HRQoL was maintained or improved from BL with N+C while reductions were observed with S. Overall changes from BL though week 151 favored N+C with nominal significant differences between treatments observed for all scores except functional well-being (FWB; Table). Similarly, decreased risk of deterioration was observed with N+C vs S for all scores except FWB, irrespective of the deterioration definition used (TFD, TCD, TDD). Pts in N+C arm were 48% (odds ratio: 0.52 [95% CI, 0.35-0.77]) less likely to be notably bothered by side effects than pts in S arm. Conclusions: Pts continued to report improved HRQoL with N+C compared to S. Treatment with N+C reduced the risk of meaningful deterioration in HRQoL scores, regardless of the definition of deterioration and showed a decreased risk of being bothered by treatment side effects in contrast to S. These results suggest that the superior efficacy of N+C over S with the additional benefit of improved HRQoL is maintained with longer follow-up. Clinical trial information: NCT03141177.
