MA 17.10 - Toxicity Results from the Randomized Phase III NVALT-11 Study of Prophylactic Cranial Irradiation vs. Observation in Stage III NSCLC (ID 9262)
15:45 - 17:30 | Author(s): H.J. Groen
- Abstract
- Presentation
Background:
NVALT-11 randomized trial showed that PCI reduced the proportion of stage III NSCLC patients with symptomatic BM from 28 % to 5 % (Groen ASCO 2017). Here, we report on the toxicity.
Method:
We randomized between PCI or observation in radically treated stage III NSCLC. Primary endpoint: incidence of symptomatic brain metastases; secondary endpoints: OS, toxicity and quality of life.
Result:
Between 2009 and 2015 a total of 195 pts were registered, 175 were randomized, 87 received PCI and 88 pts were in the observation arm. Median follow up: 48.5 months (95% CI, 39-54). Neurological adverse events (AE) of all grades that occurred more frequently in the PCI vs. the observation arm: cognitive disturbance (18 vs. 2 pt; p< 10[-4]) and memory impairment (25 vs. 7 pt; p<10[-3]). No significant difference in G3-4 cognitive disturbance and memory impairment. Non-neurological AE of all grades that were more frequent in the PCI arm: alopecia (36 vs. 5 pt; p<10[-6]), fatigue (55 vs. 29 patients; p<10[-4]), nausea (30 vs. 15 patients; p=0.01), anorexia (6 vs. 0 patients; p=0.01) and dysphagia (11 vs. 2 pt; p=0.01). Of the G3-4 AE, only fatigue was significantly more present in the PCI arm (13 vs. 2 pt, p < 0.01). Scored as treatment-related, neurological toxicities of all grades that occurred more frequently in the PCI vs. the observation arm: cognitive disturbance (7 vs. 0 pt; p=0.01), dizziness (7 vs. 0 pt; p=0.01) and memory impairment (14 vs. 0 pt; p<10[-4]). No significant differences in G3-4 toxicities, with only one patient reporting severe cognitive disturbance in the PCI group. Scored as treatment-related, non-neurological toxicities of all grades that were more frequent in the PCI arm: alopecia (26 vs. 1 pt; p<10[-6]), fatigue (19 vs. 2 patients; p<10[-4]), nausea (16 vs. 0 patients; p<10[-5]), headache (19 vs. 1 pt; p<10[-5]), rash (8 vs. 0 pt; p<0.01) and vomiting (9 vs. 0 pt; p<0.01). No significant differences in G3-4 toxicities, with 3 patients reporting severe fatigue, 2 nausea and 1 vomiting, all in the PCI group. Overall Qol was worse in the PCI arm 3 months post-treatment, but was similar to observation thereafter.
Conclusion:
PCI related symptoms were mainly grade 1-2 memory and cognitive disturbances and fatigue. G3-4 toxicities were very rare. QoL was only temporarily affected by PCI. The side effects of PCI should be balanced against deteriorating BM symptoms and the lack of OS benefit (Groen ASCO 2017).

OA 05.05 - Brigatinib in Crizotinib-Refractory ALK+ NSCLC: Updated Efficacy and Safety Results From ALTA, a Randomized Phase 2 Trial (ID 8027)
15:45 - 17:30 | Author(s): H.J. Groen
- Abstract
- Presentation
Background:
Brigatinib, a next-generation ALK inhibitor, recently received accelerated approval in the United States for the treatment of patients with metastatic ALK+ NSCLC who have progressed on or are intolerant to crizotinib. We report updated data from the randomized phase 2 trial (ALTA; NCT02094573), which was designed to investigate the efficacy and safety of 2 brigatinib regimens in patients with crizotinib-refractory, advanced ALK+ NSCLC.
Method:
Patients were stratified by presence of brain metastases at baseline and best response to prior crizotinib and randomized 1:1 to receive brigatinib at 90 mg qd (arm A) or 180 mg qd with a 7-day lead-in at 90 mg (arm B). Investigator-assessed confirmed objective response rate (ORR) per RECIST v1.1 was the primary endpoint.
Result:
Among 222 patients (n=112/n=110, arm A/B), median age was 51/57 years; 71%/67% had brain metastases. As of February 21, 2017, 17 full months since the last patient enrolled, median follow-up was 16.8/18.6 months and 32%/41% of patients continued to receive brigatinib in A/B. The table shows brigatinib efficacy. Per independent review committee, confirmed ORR was 51%/55% and median PFS was 9.2/16.7 months in A/B. Among patients with measurable baseline brain metastases (n=26/n=18, A/B), confirmed intracranial ORR was 50%/67% as of January 24, 2017; median intracranial DoR was not reached/16.6 months. The most common treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs) were: nausea (38%/47%, A/B), diarrhea (28%/44%), cough (28%/40%), headache (30%/35%), and vomiting (36%/30%); the most common grade ≥3 TEAEs were: increased creatine phosphokinase (5%/13%), hypertension (6%/8%), pneumonia (4%/5%), and increased lipase (5%/4%). Dose reduction (9%/30%, A/B) or discontinuation (4%/11%) due to TEAEs was reported.
Conclusion:
In ALTA, brigatinib continues to show substantial efficacy and acceptable safety at both dose levels, with numerically longer PFS and higher intracranial ORR at the recommended dosing regimen of 180 mg qd (with lead-in) vs 90 mg qd.Investigator Assessment Independent Review[a] Arm A (n=112) Arm B (n=110) Arm A (n=112) Arm B (n=110) Confirmed ORR, % 46 (35–57[b]) 55 (44–66[b]) 51 (41–61[c]) 55 (45–64[c]) Median DoR in responders,[d] months 12.0 (9.2–17.7[c]) 13.8 (10.2–17.5[c]) 13.8 (7.4–NR[c]) 14.8 (12.6–NR[c]) Median PFS,[d] months [% of events] 9.2 (7.4–11.1[c]) [65] 15.6 (11.1–19.4[c]) [50] 9.2 (7.4–12.8[c]) [54] 16.7 (11.6–NR[c]) [41] Median OS,[d] months [% of events] NR (20.2–NR[c]) [38] 27.6 (27.6–NR[c]) [29] — — 1-year OS probability,[d ]% 70 (61–78[c]) 80 (71–87[c]) — — DoR, duration of response NR, not reached OS, overall survival PFS, progression-free survival [a]Last scan date: February 28, 2017 [b]97.5% CI for primary endpoint [c]95% CI [d]Kaplan-Meier estimate

P1.01-001 - Depth of Target Lesion Response to Brigatinib and Its Association With Outcomes in Patients With ALK+ NSCLC in the ALTA Trial (ID 8035)
09:30 - 16:00 | Author(s): H.J. Groen
- Abstract
Background:
Depth of target lesion response to crizotinib has been associated with overall survival (OS) (J Clin Oncol 2016;34:abstract 2590). ALTA (NCT02094573) is an ongoing randomized phase 2 trial of brigatinib, an ALK inhibitor, in crizotinib-refractory advanced ALK+ NSCLC patients. As the ALTA primary endpoint of confirmed objective response rate (cORR), a binary outcome, might not fully capture clinical benefit, we examined the association of maximum decrease in target lesions with progression-free survival (PFS) and OS.
Method:
Patients were randomized to receive brigatinib at 90 mg qd (arm A; n=112) or 180 mg qd with a 7-day lead-in at 90 mg (arm B; n=110). Arms were pooled in this analysis. Patients with any target lesion shrinkage were sorted into 4 groups based on greatest decrease from baseline per RECIST v1.1; outcomes in these groups were compared with outcomes in patients with no shrinkage.
Result:
As of February 21, 2017, cORR in arm A/B (ITT population) was 46%/55% per investigators. 201/222 patients had ≥1 evaluable response assessment with 18.4-month median follow-up. Median age of these patients was 53 years; 57% were female. Patients with target lesion shrinkage (vs none) had numerically longer PFS (hazard ratios [95% CIs]: 0.61 [0.30–1.22], 1%–25% shrinkage; 0.47 [0.24–0.91], 26%–50%; 0.54 [0.28–1.05], 51%–75%; 0.30 [0.15–0.63], 76%–100%) and numerically higher estimated 1-year OS (Table). In a multivariable analysis, 76%–100% shrinkage (vs none) was independently associated with longer PFS/OS (hazard ratios [95% CIs]: 0.37 [0.18–0.76]/0.35 [0.14–0.89]); arm B (vs A) was independently associated with longer PFS.
Conclusion:
In this exploratory post hoc analysis, brigatinib-treated patients with target lesion shrinkage, including those without confirmed partial response, had improved PFS/OS vs patients without shrinkage. Patients with the deepest response (76%–100% shrinkage) appeared to have the longest PFS and higher estimated 1-year OS.Best Target Lesion Shrinkage n (%)[a] Median PFS,[b,c] Months (95% CI) Median OS,[b ]Months (95% CI) 1-year OS,[b ]% (95% CI) None 18 (9) 3.7 (1.9–11.0) 8.3 (4.7–NR) 48 (22–99) 1%–25% 40 (20) 9.3 (4.0–21.2) NR (14.5–NR) 75 (58–99) 26%–50% 60 (30) 12.8 (9.2–15.7) NR (NR–NR) 82 (70–99) 51%–75% 44 (22) 11.1 (7.4–18.2) 27.6 (20.2–NR) 77 (62–99) 76%–100% 39 (19) 19.5 (12.6–NR) NR (22.3–NR) 92 (78–99) NR, not reached [a]Evaluable patients [b]Kaplan-Meier estimate [c]Per investigator

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): H.J. Groen
- 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.
