      Background:
      This study aims to compare efficacy and safety of two widely used combinations of cisplatin (P) in this setting: as etoposide (E) and vinorelbine. This last, in its oral formulation (oV) which has achieved comparable results as the IV formulation and patients (pts) prefer it.

      Methods:
      Pts between 18-75years, with histologically proven untreated and unresectable locally-advanced NSCLC (LA-NSCLC), adequate respiratory function, V20≤35% and ECOG-PS 0-1, were randomized 1:1 to oV-P arm: 2 induction cycles (cy) of oV-P followed by 2 cy more with RT; or to E-P arm: 2 cy of E-P concomitants to RT. Both arms with a total radiation dose of 66Gy administered 2 Gys daily. Primary endpoint was progression free survival (PFS) by RECIST 1.1. Secondary endpoints: overall response rate (ORR), overall survival (OS) and safety. With α-error of 0.05 (one-tailed test) and 0.1 β-error, median PFS unacceptable for the oV-P arm of 10 months (m) (p0) and a very acceptable of 15 m (p1), 122 eligible pts were required.

      Results:
      140 pts from 23 institutions of SLCG were randomized between 08/2011-12/2014. 134 pts were treated (66 in oV-P and 68 in E-P arms). Results based on this 134 pts are presented. Median age 62 years [39-76]; PS 0/1, 45%/55%; current smoker 51%; squamous cell 51%; stage IIIB 54%. 244 and 131 cy were given in the oV-P and E-P arms, respectively. All irradiated pts in oV-P arm received at least 60Gy, 7 pts in the E-P arm received less than 60Gy (4 due to toxicity). 1 pt (1.5%) in oV-P arm and 12 pts (17.6%) in E-P arm presented esophagitis G3/4 (p=0.002). 121 confirmed eligibility for efficacy analysis. ORR were 39 (64%) and 40 pts (67%) in the oV-P and E-P arms, respectively (p=0.889). After 16 m [1-43] of follow-up, 66% pts progressed and 43% pts died. Median PFS is 11.4 m (IC95%; 6-17) in oV-P arm and 11.8 m (IC95%; 7-16) in E-P arm (p=0.374).

      Conclusion:
      Both regimens achieve similar efficacy however oV-P has less toxicity, especially esophagitis G3/4. Further follow-up is needed for the survival analysis.

      P2.06-011 - Phase 2 Study of MM-121 plus Chemotherapy vs. Chemotherapy Alone in Heregulin-Positive, Locally Advanced or Metastatic NSCLC (ID 4158)

      14:30 - 15:45  |  Author(s): R. García Gómez

      • Abstract

      Background:
      The role of the HER3 receptor and its ligand heregulin (HRG) in the progression of multiple cancers has been well established. Seribantumab (MM-121) is a fully human, monoclonal IgG2 antibody that binds to the HRG domain of HER3, blocking HER3 activity. The correlation between the level of HRG mRNA in tumor tissue and progression free survival (PFS) were retrospectively analyzed in three completed randomized Phase 2 studies of seribantumab plus standard of care (SOC) versus SOC alone (NSCLC, breast cancer and ovarian cancer). In each of these studies, high levels of HRG mRNA predicted shortened PFS for patients who received SOC treatment, while the addition of seribantumab to SOC improved PFS for patients with HRG-positive (HRG+) tumors. This is consistent with the hypothesis that HRG expression defines a drug tolerant cancer cell phenotype shielded from the effects of cytotoxic or targeted therapies and that blockade of HRG-induced HER3 signaling by seribantumab counters the effects of HRG on cancer cells, with the potential to improve outcomes for HRG+ patients. It is estimated that up to approximately 50% of cases of all solid tumor indications are HRG+. This HRG expression may contribute to rapid clinical progression in a subset of patients with poor prognosis.

      Methods:
      In the ongoing randomized, open-label, international, Phase 2 study, NSCLC patients with HRG+ tumors are being prospectively selected using a HRG RNA in situ hybridization assay performed on a recent tumor tissue sample collected via fine needle aspiration, core needle biopsy or excision. Approximately 560 patients will be screened to support enrollment of 280 HRG+ patients, who will be randomized in a 2:1 ratio to receive seribantumab plus investigator’s choice of docetaxel or pemetrexed, or docetaxel or pemetrexed alone. Patients will be wild-type for EGFR and ALK and will have progressed following one to three systemic therapies, one of which must be an anti-PD-1 or anti-PD-L1 therapy, for locally advanced and/or metastatic disease. Overall survival (OS) is the primary endpoint of the study and secondary endpoints include PFS, objective response rate and time to progression. Safety and health-related quality of life will also be assessed. An interim analysis is planned when 50% of final OS events have been reported. Enrollment has been initiated with approximately 80 sites expected to participate worldwide. Clinical Trials Registry number: NCT02387216
