Check. Mate 568: Identification of Optimal TMB Cutoff (≥ 10 mut/Mb) for Nivo + Ipi in 1 L NSCLC Introduction • Approved approaches in 1 L NSCLC include anti–PD-1 monotherapy in patients with ≥ 50% tumor PD-L 1 expression and I-O combined with chemotherapy • Despite recent advances, there remains an unmet need for biomarkers that identify patients more likely to benefit from I-O therapies • Nivolumab + ipilimumab demonstrated durable clinical activity in 1 L NSCLC in the Check. Mate 012 trial 1, 2 – Dosing of nivolumab 3 mg/kg Q 2 W + ipilimumab 1 mg/kg Q 6 W was optimized for NSCLC (13% discontinuation due to TRAEs in nivolumab + low-dose ipilimumab) • TMB is an emerging, predictive biomarker of response to I-O therapy in multiple tumor types, including lung cancer 3 -5 1.

Check. Mate 568: Identification of Optimal TMB Cutoff (≥ 10 mut/Mb) for Nivo + Ipi in 1 L NSCLC Check. Mate 568 Summary: Nivolumab + Ipilimumab in 1 L NSCLC • Nivolumab 3 mg/kg Q 2 W + low-dose ipilimumab 1 mg/kg Q 6 W was effective and well tolerated, consistent with previous reports using the optimized dose regimen • ORR increased in patients with higher TMB, and plateaued at TMB ≥ 10 mut/Mb – TMB ≥ 10 mut/Mb (Foundation. One CDx. TM) was identified as the optimal cutoff for treatment benefit for 1 L nivolumab + ipilimumab – In this study, 49% of 1 L NSCLC patients had TMB ≥ 10 mut/Mb • Consistent with previous studies, TMB and PD-L 1 are independent biomarkers – PD-L 1 and TMB identify distinct and independent populations of NSCLC – PD-L 1 and TMB independently are associated with enhanced ORR and PFS • A cutoff of ≥ 10 mut/Mb was chosen to pre-specify the high TMB patient population for the PFS co-primary endpoint in Check.
