GUIDELINES FOR USE
Our guideline named ATEZOLIZUMAB (Tecentriq) requires the following rule(s) be met for approval:
- You have ONE of the following:
- Stage II to IIIA non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC: a type of lung cancer)
- Metastatic non-squamous non-small cell lung cancer (NSq NSCLC: a type of lung cancer that has spread to other parts of the body)
- Metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC: a type of lung cancer that has spread to other parts of the body)
- Extensive-stage small cell lung cancer (ES-SCLC: a type of lung cancer)
- Unresectable or metastatic hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC: a type of liver cancer that cannot be removed by surgery or has spread to other parts of the body)
- Unresectable or metastatic melanoma (a type of skin cancer that cannot be completely removed with surgery or has spread to other parts of the body)
- Unresectable or metastatic alveolar soft part sarcoma (ASPS: a type of soft tissue cancer that cannot be completely removed with surgery or has spread to other parts of the body)
- If you have stage II to IIIA non-small cell lung cancer, approval also requires:
- You are 18 years of age or older
- Tecentriq will be used as a single agent
- Tecentriq will be used as adjuvant (add-on) treatment following resection (removal of tissue or organ) and platinum-based chemotherapy (a type of therapy to treat cancer such as cisplatin, carboplatin, oxaliplatin)
- Your tumor(s) express programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1: type of protein) on at least 1 percent of tumor cells, as determined by a Food and Drug Administration (FDA)-approved test
- If you have metastatic non-squamous non-small cell lung cancer, approval also requires:
- You are 18 years of age or older
- You do NOT have epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR: a type of protein) or anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK: a type of protein) genomic tumor abnormalities (type of abnormal gene)
- Tecentriq will be used in combination with bevacizumab, paclitaxel, and carboplatin OR in combination with paclitaxel protein-bound and carboplatin
- If you have metastatic non-small cell lung cancer, approval also requires:
- You are 18 years of age or older
- You meet ONE of the following:
- You do NOT have an epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR: a type of protein) or anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK: a type of protein) mutation (abnormal change in a type of gene) AND your disease has gotten worse during or after treatment with a platinum-containing chemotherapy (such as cisplatin, carboplatin, oxaliplatin)
- You do NOT have an epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) or anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK) mutation, AND you have tumor(s) that have high programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1: type of protein) expression (PD-L1 stained at least 50 percent of tumor cells) OR PD-L1 stained tumor-infiltrating immune cells covering at least 10 percent of the tumor area, as determined by a Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved test
- You have an anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK) mutation, and your disease has gotten worse during or after treatment with a platinum-containing chemotherapy (such as cisplatin, carboplatin, oxaliplatin) AND ALK-directed therapy (such as Xalkori [crizotinib], Zykadia [ceritinib])
- You have an epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutation, and your disease has gotten worse during or after treatment with a platinum-containing chemotherapy (such as cisplatin, carboplatin, oxaliplatin) AND EGFR-directed therapy (such as Tarceva [erlotinib], Iressa [gefitinib], Gilotrif [afatinib])
- If you have extensive-stage small cell lung cancer, approval also requires:
- You are 18 years of age or older
- Tecentriq will be used in combination with carboplatin and etoposide
- If you have unresectable or metastatic hepatocellular carcinoma, approval also requires:
- You have NOT previously been treated with systemic therapy (treatment that targets the entire body)
- Tecentriq will be used in combination with bevacizumab
- If you have unresectable or metastatic melanoma, approval also requires:
- Tecentriq will be used in combination with cobimetinib (Cotellic) and vemurafenib (Zelboraf)
- Your cancer is BRAF V600 mutation (abnormal change in a type of gene) positive
- If you have unresectable or metastatic alveolar soft part sarcoma, approval also requires:
- You are 2 years of age or older
