MA 17.06 - Safety Data from Randomized Phase II Study of CDDP+S-1 vs CDDP+PEM Combined with TRT for Locally Advanced Non-Squamous NSCLC (ID 8296)
15:45 - 17:30 | Author(s): Takashi Seto
- Abstract
- Presentation
Background:
Both cisplatin (CDDP)+S-1 and CDDP+pemetrexed (PEM) can be given at full systemic doses with thoracic radiotherapy (TRT) in locally advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), and CDDP+PEM is one of the standard chemotherapy regimens in patients with advanced non-squamous (non-sq) NSCLC. This multicenter, randomized, open-label, phase II study (SPECTRA) compared the efficacy and safety of the two above-mentioned promising regimens combined with TRT in patients with unresectable locally advanced non-sq NSCLC.
Method:
Patients were randomly assigned to receive CDDP+S-1 (CDDP 60mg/m2, d1, and S-1 80mg/m2, d1-14, q4w, up to 4 cycles) or CDDP+PEM (CDDP 75mg/m2, d1, and PEM 500mg/m2, d1, q3w, up to 4 cycles) combined with TRT 60Gy in 30 fractions. The primary endpoint was 2-year progression-free survival (PFS) rate. If the 2-year PFS rate is assumed to be 25% in the inferior therapy group and 15% higher in the superior therapy group of this study, the sample size needed for selection of the optimum treatment group at a probability of approximately 95% will be 51 cases/group with the Simon’s selection design. The sample size was set at 100 patients.
Result:
Between Jan 2013 and Oct 2016, 102 patients were enrolled in this study from 9 institutions in Japan. All 102 patients were eligible and assessable, of whom 52 were assigned to CDDP+S-1 and 50 to CDDP+PEM. Baseline characteristics were similar (CDDP+S-1/CDDP+PEM): median age (range) 64.5 (39-73)/63.5 (32-74) years; women, n=17 (33%)/n=17 (34%); stage IIIB, n=21 (40%)/n=20 (40%); ECOG PS of 1, n=14 (27%)/n=14 (28%); never smoker, n=12 (23%)/n=12 (24%); and adenocarcinoma, n=47(90%)/n=45(90%). Completion rate of TRT (60Gy) and chemotherapy (4 cycles) was 92%/98% and 73%/86%, respectively. Response rate was 60%/64%. Grade 3 or higher toxicities included febrile neutropenia (12%/2%), anorexia (8%/16%), diarrhea (8%/0%), esophagitis (6%/8%), pneumonia (4%/4%), neutropenia (38%/52%), anemia (8%/12%), thrombocytopenia (4%/6%), and hyponatremia (12%/12%). Grade 1 radiation pneumonitis was observed in 8 (15%)/2 (4%) patients on the basis of the data collected 30 days or less after the discontinuation of protocol treatment. No treatment-related death was observed. The data on PFS and overall survival are immature.
Conclusion:
Response rate was similar between the two arms. Toxicities were tolerable and manageable in both arms; however febrile neutropenia was more frequently observed in the CDDP+S-1 arm. We will present the updated safety data of this study at the conference. Survival data will be analyzed in late 2018.

OA 05.03 - Clinical Activity of ASP8273 in Asian Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer Patients with EGFR Activating and T790M Mutations (ID 7889)
15:45 - 17:30 | Author(s): Takashi Seto
- Abstract
- Presentation
Background:
Epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) activating mutations confer sensitivity to tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) treatment for non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and occur in ~50% of East Asian patients with NSCLC. While initial TKI treatment can be effective, acquired resistance inevitably develops with a secondary mutation (T790M). ASP8273 is a highly specific, irreversible, once-daily, oral, EGFR TKI which inhibits both activating (eg, exon 19 deletions, L858R) and resistance (eg T790M) mutations.
Method:
This dose-escalation/dose-expansion study (NCT02192697) was conducted in two phases. In Phase 1, adult Japanese patients (≥20 yr) with NSCLC previously treated with ≥1 EGFR TKI were enrolled and received escalating ASP8273 doses (25–600mg) to assess safety/tolerability as well as to determine maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and/or recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D). In phase 2, adult T790M-positive NSCLC patients in Japan, Korea, and Taiwan were enrolled to further define the ASP8273 safety/tolerability profile at RP2D and determine antitumor activity (assessed using RECIST v1.1). Antitumor activity in phase 2 was evaluated according to Simon’s 2-stage design (uninteresting response=0.3, desired response=0.5, α=0.05, β=0.1). If ≥9 of 24 ASP8273-treated patients achieved a desired response in the first stage, then 39 additional patients would be enrolled. If ≥ 25 of the 63 total patients achieved response, ASP8273 would be considered to have antitumor effects.
Result:
A total of 123 patients (n=47 phase 1; n=76 phase 2) were enrolled. In both phases, more women were enrolled. The median age was 65 years in phase 1 and 63 years in phase 2. Based on phase 1 findings, MTD and RP2D were 400mg and 300mg, respectively. As 27 of the 63 patients treated with ASP8273 300mg in the first and second stages combined achieved a clinical response (based on independent central review), ASP8273 was determined to have antitumor activity (ORR=42.9%; 95% CI: 30.5–56.0). The ORR at week 24 in all patients in the full analysis set was 42.1% (n=32/76; 95% CI: 30.9, 54.0). The median duration of PFS (central review) was 8.1 months (95%CI: 5.6,--). The most commonly reported treatment-emergent AEs (TEAE) in phase 2 were diarrhea (n=50/76), nausea (n=31/76), increased alanine aminotransferase (n=27/76), decreased appetite and vomiting (n=26/76 each), and hyponatremia (n=25/76). Drug-related TEAEs were reported in 93.4% (n=71/76) of patients, the most common of which was diarrhea (n=43/76).
Conclusion:
ASP8273 was generally well tolerated and demonstrated antitumor activity in Asian patients with both EGFR activating and T790M mutations.

OA 05.06 - Phase 2 Study of Lorlatinib in Patients with Advanced ALK<sup>+</sup>/ROS1<sup>+</sup> Non-Small-Cell Lung Cancer (ID 8573)
15:45 - 17:30 | Author(s): Takashi Seto
- Abstract
- Presentation
Background:
Lorlatinib, a selective, potent, brain-penetrant ALK/ROS1 TKI, is active against most known ALK kinase domain mutations. In phase 1 of this ongoing study (NCT01970865), lorlatinib displayed robust clinical activity among patients with ALK[+]/ROS1[+] non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC), most of whom were heavily pretreated and had CNS metastases. Phase 2 evaluated efficacy (overall and intracranial), according to prior treatment, and safety at the recommended phase 2 dose (100 mg QD).
Method:
Patients with NSCLC ± asymptomatic CNS metastases enrolled in 6 cohorts (EXP1–5, ALK[+]; EXP6, ROS1[+]). The primary endpoint was objective response rate (ORR) and intracranial ORR by independent central review. Safety, patient-reported outcomes and molecular profiling were also assessed.
Result:
As of 15-March-2017, 227 ALK[+] patients were evaluated for ORR (Table), including 140 with CNS involvement who were evaluated for intracranial ORR.
Of 219 ALK+ patients analyzed for ALK kinase domain mutations at baseline, 46/219 (21%) had ≥1 mutation detected in circulating free DNA; most derived treatment benefit with an ORR of (27/46) 59%. Across all cohorts (N=275), the most common treatment-related adverse events (AEs) and grade 3/4 treatment-related AEs were hypercholesterolemia (81%/16%) and hypertriglyceridemia (60%/16%); 30% and 22% of patients had treatment-related AEs associated with dose interruptions and reductions, respectively. No treatment-related deaths occurred; 7 patients (3%) had treatment-related AEs leading to treatment discontinuation. 157/275 (57%) patients remained on treatment at data cutoff. Most patients reported stable/improved global quality of life (40%/43%).Confirmed ORR Confirmed IC-ORR N n (%) N n (%) ALK[+] cohorts EXP1 (treatment-naïve, no prior ALK-TKIs or CT) 30 27 (90) 8 6 (75) EXP2 (prior crizotinib only) 27 20 (74) 17 10 (59) EXP3 (1 prior ALK TKI ± CT) 59 30 (51) 32 20 (63) EXP3A (prior crizotinib + CT) 32 21 (66) 20 15 (75) EXP3B (any 1 other ALK TKI ± CT) 27 9 (33) 12 5 (42) EXP4 (2 prior ALK TKIs ± CT) 65 27 (42) 45 25 (56) EXP5 (3 prior ALK TKIs ± CT) 46 16 (35) 38 (15 (39) CT, chemotherapy; IC, intracranial.
Conclusion:
Lorlatinib showed clinically meaningful activity, including substantial intracranial efficacy, among ALK[+]/ROS1[+] patients who were either treatment-naïve or failed ≥1 prior ALK TKI. Overall lorlatinib was well tolerated and when needed, AEs were managed by dose delay/reduction or standard medical therapy.

OA 05.08 - Final Result of Phase I/II Study (AF-001JP) of Alectinib, a Selective CNS-Active ALK Inhibitor, in ALK+ NSCLC Patients (Pts) (ID 9732)
15:45 - 17:30 | Author(s): Takashi Seto
- Abstract
- Presentation
Background:
Alectinib (ALC) is a selective, CNS-active ALK tyrosine kinase inhibitor. In two Phase 3 studies (J-ALEX and ALEX), ALC proved superior efficacy and tolerability compared to crizotinib (CRZ). Here we report the final efficacy and safety results of the 46 pts enrolled in the phase II part of study AF-001JP with a longer follow-up period than that observed in J-ALEX and ALEX studies.
Method:
ALC 300 mg b.i.d was given to ALK+ NSCLC pts who were ALK inhibitor-naive and had disease progression after at least one line of chemotherapy to investigate the efficacy and safety until the investigator confirmed no further clinical benefits.
Result:
This study was completed in December 2016. The median treatment duration was 46.1 months (range: 1-62). 20 of 46 pts were on treatment with alectinib at the study termination. Progressive disease (PD) was confirmed in 20 pts (43%). Median PFS was not reached and 4-year PFS rate was 52% (95% CI: 36-66). 14 of 46 pts had CNS metastasis at baseline. Median PFS was 38 months (95% CI: 9-NE) in pts with CNS metastases and was not reached in pts without CNS metastases. Four pts had CNS progression and the 4-year cumulative incidence rate of CNS progression was 9.5%. Median OS was not reached and the 4-year OS rate was 70% (95% CI: 54-81). Safety profile was similar to that reported previously and there were no treatment-related Grade 4 or 5 adverse events for this long administration period.
Conclusion:
Regardless of CNS metastases at baseline, ALC have demonstrated excellent efficacy in ALK+ NSCLC pts without prior ALK inhibitor treatment. ALC was well tolerated over a prolonged administration period.

P1.03-005 - Phase 2 Study of Ceritinib in Patients with ALK+ NSCLC with Prior Alectinib Treatment in Japan: ASCEND-9 (ID 8417)
09:30 - 16:00 | Author(s): Takashi Seto
- Abstract
Background:
ALK inhibitors are a standard of care for ALK-positive metastatic NSCLC and several ALK inhibitors are currently available. Alectinib is one of the recommended therapies as 1[st] line treatment for ALK-positive metastatic NSCLC in Japan based on robust progression-free survival (PFS) prolongation and favorable safety profile. However, even with treatment with alectinib, these cancers eventually progress after acquiring resistance against alectinib. Therefore, which drug should be chosen after alectinib is relevant clinical question. Recently, ceritinib, which is a highly selective oral ALK inhibitor, has demonstrated superior activity compared to chemotherapy in the 1[st] line setting for patients with ALK-positive metastatic NSCLC (ASCEND-4, Soria et al. Lancet 2017). It also showed clinically meaningful benefit in patients who failed to prior ALK inhibitor treatment including alectinib (Nishio et al. J Thorac Oncol 2015). In this study, we tried to evaluate efficacy and safety of ceritinib in ALK-positive metastatic NSCLC patients who progressed on alectinib treatment.
Method:
ASCEND-9 (NCT02450903) is a single-arm, open-label, multicenter, phase 2 study of ceritinib 750 mg/day (fasted) in adult patients with ALK+ (Vysis ALK Break Apart FISH Probe kit test), stage IIIB/IV NSCLC previously treated with alectinib and had subsequent disease progression. Other key inclusion criteria are ≥ 1 measurable lesion per RECIST 1.1 and WHO PS 0-1. Patients must have received previous treatment with alectinib, but prior crizotinib and/or up to 1 chemotherapy regimen are allowed. Patients with asymptomatic CNS metastases are eligible. Ceritinib may be continued beyond RECIST-defined PD. Primary endpoint is investigator assessed-overall response rate (ORR) per RECIST 1.1. Secondary endpoints include disease control rate (DCR), time to response (TTR), duration of response (DOR), PFS and safety. Biomarkers are evaluated for exploratory purpose.
Result:
Twenty patients were enrolled at 10 centers in Japan from Aug 2015 to Feb 2017. At present, the study is underway, and the results including ORR, DCR, TTR, DOR, PFS, safety and exploratory biomarker data will be presented at the 2017 WCLC.

P2.04-005 - GEOMETRY Mono-1: Phase II, Multicenter Study of MET Inhibitor Capmatinib (INC280) in EGFR Wt, MET-Dysregulated Advanced NSCLC (ID 8961)
09:30 - 16:00 | Author(s): Takashi Seto
- Abstract
Background:
Amplification of MET leading to oncogenic signaling occurs in 3‒5% of newly diagnosed EGFR wild type (wt) non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) cases with decreasing incidence at higher levels of amplification. Mutations in MET leading to exon 14 deletion (METΔ[ex14]) also occur in 2–4% of adenocarcinoma and 1–2% of other NSCLC subsets. Capmatinib (INC280) is a potent and selective MET inhibitor that has shown strong evidence of antitumor activity in a phase I study in patients with EGFR wt advanced NSCLC harboring MET amplification and METΔ[ex14].
Method:
This phase II, multicenter study (NCT02414139) was designed to confirm the clinical activity of capmatinib in patients with advanced NSCLC by MET amplification and METΔ[ex14] status. Eligible patients (≥18 years of age, Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group Performance Status 0–1) must have ALK-negative, EGFR wt, stage IIIB/IV NSCLC (any histology). Centrally assessed MET amplification (gene copy number [GCN]) and mutation status is used to assign patients to one of the below cohorts: Pretreated with 1–2 prior systemic lines of therapy for advanced setting (cohorts 1–4): 1a: MET amplification GCN ≥10 (n=69) 1b: MET amplification GCN ≥6 and <10 (n=69) 2: MET amplification GCN ≥4 and <6 (n=69) 3: MET amplification GCN <4 (n=69) 4: METΔ[ex14] mutation regardless of MET GCN (n=69) Treatment naïve (cohorts 5a and 5b): 5a: MET amplification GCN ≥10 and no METΔ[ex14] mutation (n=27) 5b: METΔ[ex14] mutation regardless of MET GCN (n=27) Capmatinib 400 mg tablets are orally administered twice daily on a continuous dosing schedule 12 hours apart. Primary and key secondary endpoints are overall response rate (ORR) and duration of response (DOR), respectively (blinded independent review assessment). Other secondary endpoints include investigator-assessed ORR, DOR, time to response, disease control rate, progression-free survival (independent and investigator assessment), safety, and pharmacokinetics. Enrollment is ongoing in 25 countries. Cohorts 1b, 2, and 3 are now closed to enrollment; cohorts 1a and 4 continue to enroll patients who have received 1–2 prior lines of therapy in the advanced setting, and cohorts 5a and 5b are open for enrollment of treatment-naïve patients. Responses have been seen in both MET-amplified and MET-mutated patients irrespective of the line of therapy.

Abstract:
What does prophylactic cranial irradiation (PCI) prevent in ED-SCLC? - Why isn’t the presence of brain metastasis evaluated before performing PCI? Background: In a European trial, prophylactic cranial irradiation (PCI) was performed on patients with extensive-disease small cell lung cancer (ED- SCLC). As a result, PCI was reported to reduce the incidence of symptomatic brain metastasis and to prolong patient survival. However, their treatments were completely different from our routine medical care. For example, they did not perform tests to examine whether there was a metastatic brain tumor before assignment to the PCI group or observation group and, after assignment, symptoms alone were observed and no imaging test was performed. For this reason, in Japan, we corrected this inconsistency of protocol and repeated the trial to determine whether PCI contributes to prolonged survival. Participants and method: Included in the current trial were patients who underwent two or more cycles of platinum-based combination chemotherapy, had achieved at least stable disease (SD), and had no metastatic brain tumor on their MRI. They were randomly assigned to either the PCI group or observation group. Follow-up with brain, chest and abdominal diagnostic imaging tests was performed every three months in both groups. Results: In the first pre-specified interim analysis, it was found that there was no possibility of improving patient prognosis using PCI even if the trial were continued. An independent data monitoring committee therefore terminated the trial. At that time, 224 cases had already been enrolled, with 113 cases assigned to the PCI group and 111 cases to the observation group. Median survival period in the final analysis was 11.6 months for the PCI group and 13.7 months for the observation group (hazard ratio, 1.27; 95% CI, 0.96 to 1.68). There was no statistically significant difference between the groups, but PCI actually tended to make the prognosis somewhat worse or, at least, did not improve prognosis in patients with ED-SCLC.Discussion: The biggest difference between the two trials was whether follow-up assessments were conducted using symptoms or brain MRI. In the current trial, it is impossible to estimate the proportion of asymptomatic brain metastasis cases; however, in the European trial, asymptomatic brain metastasis cases were also included, which means that there were in fact two different subgroups in the PCI group: a subgroup of patients with asymptomatic brain metastasis undergoing therapeutic cranial irradiation and a subgroup of patients without brain metastasis undergoing true PCI. It seems that the survival difference between patients with asymptomatic brain metastasis in the PCI group and in the observation group caused the apparent improvement of survival period. On the other hand, it is conjectured that PCI generated a lot of toxic effects in the patients without brain metastasis and that their survival curve tended to be inferior. PCI is a treatment to prevent new brain metastasis. One year of PCI reduces the incidence of new brain metastasis in no more than 30% of cases. For patients with MRI showing no metastatic brain tumor, needless PCI can be avoided by performing regular brain imaging tests, without impairing survival.
