    In the single-group KEYNOTE-012 and KEYNOTE-086 trials, pembrolizumab showed long-lasting anti-tumor activity and controllable safety in metastatic triple-negative breast cancer .


    Breast cancer

    The KEYNOTE-119 trial is a randomized, open phase 3 trial that recruits patients with diagnosed metastatic triple-negative breast cancer who are at least 18 years old and have an ECOG performance status of 0 or 1 and have previously received first-line treatment for metastatic lesions.


    From November 25, 2015 to April 11, 2017, a total of 1098 patients were evaluated, of which 622 (57%) were randomly assigned to the pembrolizumab group (312) or the chemotherapy group (310).


    Overall survival

    Overall survival

    The median follow-up time of pembrolizumab group and chemotherapy group was 31.


    The median overall survival of patients with PD-L1 CPS≥10 in the pembrolizumab group and chemotherapy group was 12.


    The overall survival of patients with different scores of PD-L1 CPS

    The overall survival of patients with different scores of PD-L1 CPS

    For patients with CPS ≥ 1, the median overall survival with pembrolizumab or chemotherapy was 10.


    In the total population, the median overall survival of patients in the pembrolizumab group and chemotherapy group was 9.


    Adverse reactions

    Adverse reactions

    The most common grade 3-4 treatment-related adverse reactions are anemia (pembrolizumab group vs chemotherapy group: 1% vs 3%), leukopenia (<1% vs 5%), and decreased neutrophil count (< 1% vs 10%) and neutropenia (0 vs 13%).


    10%) and neutropenia (0 vs 13%).


    In summary, the use of pembrolizumab in previously treated metastatic triple-negative breast cancer failed to significantly prolong the overall survival of patients compared with chemotherapy .


    Pembrolizumab for previously treated metastatic triple-negative breast cancer failed to significantly prolong the overall survival of patients compared with chemotherapy
