Table 1. Summary of therapeutic response to pembrolizumab (anti-PD-1) treatment.

Radiographic responses, progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) estimates were measured using the Response Evaluation Criteria In Solid Tumors (RECIST v1.1) guidelines. Patients were considered not evaluable if they did not undergo a 12-week scan due to clinical progression. The rate of disease control was defined as the percentage of patients who had a complete response, partial response, or stable disease for 12 weeks or more. NR, not reached.

Type of response Patients (n = 86)
Complete response 18 (21%)
Partial response 28 (33%)
Stable disease 20 (23%)
Progressive disease 12 (14%)
Not evaluable 8 (9%)
