• Demonstrate proof-of principle: target engagement and activity, synergistic or additive effect
• Characterize PK and PD profile of individual drugs and combination• Identify optimal concentration and explore potential biomarker• Given the tumor immunotherapy mediates through activation of innate
and adaptive host immune response, murine model incorporate interaction between established tumor and hostTIME
• Murine tumor models:• Transplantable tumor (syngeneic, xenograft, PDX model)
• Orthotopic tumor
• Spontaneous tumor (carcinogen-induced, Genetically-mediated, GEMM)
• Immunodeficient mice
• Humanized mice

SafetyConsiderations• Immune-mediated tissue injuries are wide-
ranging and variable in presentation and time of onset
• Substantial incremental toxicity can result from combinations, depending on both the patient population, dose and schedule
• The causality attribution of adverseevents may be problematic in case ofnovel combination
• Given the unique immune related adverse events associated with immunotherapeutic combinations, increased awareness, early diagnosis and intervention is crucial, especially combination approach

Take home message: IO combination
� Single agent efficacy� Biology –driven rationale� No overlapping toxicities� Biomarker-based patient selection
� Today, a solid scientific rational & strong activity signals are required
for new combinations to be tested
� Investigating cancer immunology by “reverse transla ting” to the lab from clinical studies is needed
