Extended Data Table 2.

Clinical and treatment characteristics of immune checkpoint blockade (ICB) exposed patients with and without development of a subsequent primary malignancy (SPM).

ICB exposed who developed SPM N=21 ICB exposed no SPM N=151

Characteristic: %/N %/N

Pathogenic germline variant:
MSH6 14 (3/21) 18 (27/151)
PMS2 0 19 (29/151)
MSH2 57 (12/21) 36 (54/151)
MLH1 29 (6/21) 22 (33/151)
EPCAM 0 4 (6/151)
MSH2+EPCAM 0 0.7 (1/151)
MLH1+MSH2 0 0.7 (1/151)

Rank order of the target tumor:
1 43 (9/21) 66 (99/151)
2 14 (3/21) 20 (30/151)
3 14 (3/21) 7 (11/151)

7 - 1 (2/151)
9 - 0.7 (1/151)
10 - 0.7(1/151)

Extent of disease at the time of ICB exposure
Local 33.3 (7/21) 34 (51/151)
Metastatic 66.7(14/21) 66 (100/151)

Immune checkpoint blockade:
Single agent PD1i 81 (17/21) 80 (121/151)
Single agent PDL1i 5 (1/21) 11 (16/151)
Combination (CTLA4i +PD1i) 0 7 (11/151)
Sequential PD1i, Combination (CTLA4i+PD1i) 9(2/21 2 (3/151)
Sequential PDL1i, PD1i, Combination (CTLA4i+PD1i) 5 (1/21) 0

Patients who received less than 6 months of therapy: 24 (5/21) 48 (72/151)

Median duration of ICB:
Time(months) (IQR) 24 (10–27) 7 (3–17)

Given risk of multiple primary cancers in Lynch syndrome, the tumor targeted by the ICB was ranked as to the order in which it had occurred.
