NSCLC Stage IV FIT pt with NO mutations. What is the 1st line option? 1st line chemotherapy/ Checkpoint inhibitor
What are the ADRs of Targeted 1st line therapies: Checkpoint inhibitors? Immune related AE: Rash, Colitis, Hepatitis, Endocrinopathies, Nephritis *(given IV)
What are the ADRs of Targeted 1st line therapies: Osimertinib? Diarrhea, Rash or Acne, Stomatitis, Paranychia (cuticles of hands and feet get sensitive) *given PO
What are the CIs to Checkpoint Inhibitors? -Active or previously documented autoimmune disease and/or current use of immunosuppressive agents or presence of an oncogene
Advanced or Metastatic NSCLC FIT patient: Tx considerations for Stage IV? -Inc survival for chemo vs best supportive care -Platinum based chemotherapy best choice -No platinum has been shown to be superior
Advanced or Metastatic NSCLC FIT patient: General response rates in FIT pts receiving chemotherapy: -Overall response rates (~25 – 35%) -Time to progression ( 4 – 6 mo) -Median survival (8 – 10 mo) -1-year survival rate (30 – 40%) -2-year survival rate (10 – 15%)
Advanced/Metastatic NSCLC: First-line therapy in FIT patients no mutations: Pts that are NSCLC, NON-SQUAMOUS: tx option? (Carb or cis) + pemetrexed + pembrolizumab* or (Carb or cis) + pemetrexed + cemiplimab* *PDL1 expression is not relevant
Advanced/Metastatic NSCLC: First-line therapy in FIT patients no mutations: Pts that are NSCLC, SQUAMOUS: tx option? Carbo + (paclitaxel or albumin bound paclitaxel) + pembrolizumab* or (Carbo or Cis) + paclitaxel or cemiplimab-rwlc *PDL1 expression is not relevant
Pts that are NSCLC stage IV with no mutations and tried 1st line: If pts had progression? Go to 2nd line
Pts that are NSCLC stage IV with no mutations and tried 1st line: If pts had a response? Go to maintenance (Switch or continue)--> Recurrence--> 2nd line
Advanced or Metastatic NSCLC: Maintenance Therapy in FIT patients: So continuing maintenance? use at least one agent given in first line; or Switch maintenance (use a different agent, not included in 1st line regimen) but ensure no progression has occured, otherwise, 2nd line
Pharmacist's role includes? -Managing the chemotherapy toxicities -Supportive Care -Checking for drug interactions between medications, chemotherapy, OTCs, vitamins, and herbals
Minimize risk in cancer treatment by monitoring and using caution with meds that may cause these ADRs: -Myelosuppression -N/V -Nephrotoxicity -Peripheral Neuropathy
Chemotherapy vs Immunotherapy Toxicities and effects: Chemotherapy toxicities include? -Myelosuppression, N/V, Alopecia, Fatigue, Neuropathy
Chemotherapy vs Immunotherapy Toxicities and effects: Immune-related Adverse Effects (irAEs) include? -Skin rash, pruritis, Endocrinopathies, liver toxicity, Diarrhea colitis, Pneumonitis, Nephritis *Unlike chemotherapy, immunotherapy does not have dose reductions to manage toxicities
Routine monitoring of immunotherapy: General? CBC and Chem 20 at baseline and at each tx or at least monthly; Infectious disease screening; Baseline bowel assessment (Frequency); Physical exam; Neurological exam; Endocrine: TSH and free T4 baseline and every 6-8 wks; Skin: Examine skin and mucosa initially and as needed Pulmonary: O2 saturation at baseline Optional: ECG, Cortisol level, PFTs
Estimated Frequency of irAEs: Skin, GI, Endocrine, Hepatic, Pulmonary, Renal *Highest to lowest
Timing for irAEs? Skin and colitis occur the most.
