MINI17.06 - Subgroup Analysis of East Asian Patients in the Phase III REVEL Trial (ID 729)
16:45 - 18:15 | Author(s): P. Lee
- Abstract
- Presentation
Background:
The REVEL trial demonstrated that second-line treatment with ramucirumab (RAM) plus docetaxel (DOC) significantly improved overall survival (OS) compared to placebo (PBO) plus DOC in the intent-to-treat (ITT) population (N=1253) of patients with stage IV non-small cell lung cancer. The REVEL trial also significantly improved progression-free survival (PFS) and objective response rates (ORRs). Results from the East Asia (EA) subgroup (Taiwan and Korea) analysis are presented.
Methods:
Subgroup analyses were performed in the EA ITT population, which consisted of all patients who were randomized in Taiwan (n=27) and Korea (n=62). Endpoints evaluated in the EA subgroup were OS, PFS, ORR, and safety. OS and PFS were analyzed using the Kaplan-Meier method and Cox proportional hazard model. Response was compared using the Cochran-Mantel-Haenszel test. ClinicalTrials.gov number NCT01168973.
Results:
In the 89 ITT EA patients, median OS was 15.44 months for the RAM plus DOC arm (n=43) and 10.17 months for PBO plus DOC arm (n=46) (HR: 0.762, 95% CI: 0.444–1.307). Median PFS was 4.88 months for the RAM plus DOC arm and 2.79 months for the PBO plus DOC arm (HR: 0.658, 95% CI: 0.408–1.060). The ORRs were 25.6% (95% CI: 13.5–41.2) in the RAM plus DOC arm and 9% (95% CI: 2.4–20.8) in the PBO plus DOC arm. Approximately two years after the enrollment of the first patient, in May 2012, the independent data monitoring committee recommended a reduction in the dose of DOC from 75 mg/m[2] to 60 mg/m[2] for newly enrolled EA patients, based on a higher incidence of neutropenia and febrile neutropenia associated with 75 mg/m[2] in EA patients compared to non-EA patients. This amendment resulted in a reduction in the toxicity associated with the original treatment regimen (Table).

Conclusion:
Although not statistically powered to demonstrate significant improvement, the improved OS, PFS, and ORR observed in the EA subgroup treated with RAM plus DOC is consistent with the treatment effect observed in the overall ITT population in the REVEL trial. A dose reduction in DOC from 75 mg/m[2] to 60 mg/m[2] was associated with an improved safety profile and a reduction in the incidence of febrile neutropenia in the EA subgroup.
