Red Flag Origin

DefinitionDocumented progressive disease (PD) on or within 6 months of prior anti-PD-1 / anti-PD-L1 therapy (pembrolizumab, nivolumab, atezolizumab, durvalumab, cemiplimab). Triggers exclusion from monotherapy ICI rechallenge and preference for IO-naïve doublets, ADC, targeted therapy, or chemotherapy combinations.

Notes

Primary IO resistance is operationally distinct from acquired resistance (PD after initial response >6 months). SITC consensus (Kluger 2020) defines primary resistance as PD within 6 months of IO start. Subsequent options vary by tumor: melanoma — BRAF/MEKi if V600E, T-VEC, TIL therapy at trial centers, IL-2; NSCLC — docetaxel ± ramucirumab, ADC if HER2/TROP2; urothelial — enfortumab vedotin + pembrolizumab combination remains active even after IO-mono PD per EV-302; RCC — cabozantinib monotherapy or lenvatinib + everolimus. IO-rechallenge is generally not standard but may be considered after >6 months treatment-free + non-PD discontinuation reason.
