Results
• Median OS remained significantly longer with nivolumab versus everolimus, with 3-year OS rates
of 39% versus 30%, respectively (Figure 1)
Results
9
• Tumor responses remained consistent with longer follow-up, with more ongoing responses with
nivolumab than with everolimus (Table 1)
Results
10
• A delayed benefit with nivolumab versus everolimus was seen in PFS (Figure 2)
Results
11
• Treatment-related AEs occurred in 80% and 89% of patients
treated with nivolumab and everolimus,
respectively (Table 2)
• Incidence of
treatment-related
select AEs is shown in
Table 2
Results
12
• The majority of nivolumab-related select AEs resolved (within 5.6–26.1 weeks), with the
exception of endocrine events (Table 3)

Safety
• The safety outcomes for all patients, and patients ≥70 and ≥75 years of age, are shown in Table 3
• Overall, discontinuations due to treatment-related adverse events (AEs) in elderly and very
elderly patients are consistent with those observed in the overall population

Results (cont’d.)
Patients
• A total of 389 patients with advanced RCC were enrolled in the Italian cohort of the EAP between August 2015 and April 2016 and treated with nivolumab.
– The median number of nivolumab doses was 12 (range, 1–35) – Median duration of follow-up was 9.2 months (range, 0.1–17.0)
• Of these 389 enrolled patients, 231 (59%) developed PD; 100 (43%) were treated beyond PD
and 131 (57%) were not (Table 1)
Results (cont’d.)
Efficacy Beyond First PD
• Of the 100 patients treated beyond PD, 32 (32%) achieved a subsequent tumor burden reduction or a stabilization in tumor lesions (Table 3)
• It is noteworthy that of the 75 patients who showed no initial response to nivolumab (ie, best
response was PD), 24 (32%) achieved at least disease stabilization (including 6 [8%] achieving
a subsequent PR) with continued nivolumab treatment.
Figure 1. Kaplan-Meier estimates of OS for patients treated beyond PD and patients not treated beyond PD
• One-year overall survival was 73.5% in patients treated beyond PD
and 43.5% for patients not treated beyond PD (Figure 1)
