      Background:
      The ARCHER 1050 study (NCT01774721) demonstrated benefits of dacomitinib compared with gefitinib as first-line therapy for patients with advanced non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and EGFR-activating mutation. Here, we present the results of a prospective subgroup analysis by EGFR mutation subtype.

      Method:
      In this ongoing phase 3, open-label study, eligible patients with newly diagnosed stage IIIb/IV or recurrent NSCLC and EGFR-activating mutation (exon 19 deletion or L858R mutation ± T790M mutation) with an Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance status of 0–1 were randomized (1:1) to receive dacomitinib or gefitinib, stratified by race and EGFR mutation subtype. The primary endpoint was progression-free survival (PFS) by blinded independent radiologic central (IRC) review. Secondary endpoints included overall survival and objective response rate (ORR), as determined by IRC and investigators’ assessments.

      Result:
      A total of 452 patients were randomized (dacomitinib, n=227; gefitinib, n=225). Among the dacomitinib and gefitinib arms, respectively, 134 (59%) and 133 (59%) had exon 19 deletions and 93 (41%) and 92 (41%) had L858R mutations. The Table shows PFS, ORR, and duration of response by EGFR mutation per IRC. Results based on investigators’ assessments were consistent with those based on IRC review. Overall survival data are immature.

      ORR (CR + PR), n (%) (95% CI) 102 (76.1) (68.0–83.1) 93 (69.9) (61.4–77.6) 68 (73.1) (62.9–81.8) 68 (73.9) (63.7–82.5)
      1-sided P value 0.1143 0.5395
      DoR in responders per IRC
      Median, months (95% CI) 15.6 (13.1–19.6) 8.3 (7.9–10.1) 13.7 (9.2–17.4) 7.5 (6.5–10.2)
      Hazard ratio (95% CI) 1-sided P value 0.454 (0.319–0.645) <0.0001 0.403 (0.267–0.607) <0.0001
      CI, confidence interval; CR, complete response; DoR, duration of response; PR, partial response.


      Conclusion:
      By IRC and investigators’ assessments, PFS with dacomitinib was superior to that with gefitinib in patients with either EGFR mutation. Despite a similar ORR among the treatment and EGFR mutation subgroups, duration of response was longer with dacomitinib for both mutations.

      P3.01-072 - Dacomitinib Versus Gefitinib for First-Line Treatment of Advanced EGFR+ NSCLC in Japanese Patients (ARCHER 1050) (ID 8476)

      Background:
      Second-generation EGFR tyrosine-kinase inhibitor dacomitinib has shown encouraging activity as first-line therapy in patients with EGFR-activating mutation-positive (EGFR[+]) advanced NSCLC. We performed the first randomized, open-label phase 3 trial comparing dacomitinib with gefitinib as first-line therapy (NCT01774721) which demonstrated a clinically meaningful and statistically significant benefit of dacomitinib versus gefitinib (PFS per IRC: HR, 0.59 [95%CI, 0.47–0.74]; 1-sided P<0.0001; median PFS, 14.7 vs 9.2 months). We present results from Japanese patients enrolled in this ongoing study.

      Method:
      Patients with newly diagnosed stage IIIB/IV recurrent NSCLC harboring an EGFR-activating mutation (exon 19 deletion or exon 21 L858R ± exon 20 T790M) were randomized 1:1 to once-daily oral dacomitinib 45 mg or gefitinib 250 mg until disease progression or discontinuation. Patients with CNS mets excluded. Stratification was by race and EGFR mutation subtype. The primary endpoint was progression-free survival (PFS) per blinded independent review committee (IRC).

      Result:
      Among 452 patients enrolled in ARCHER 1050, 81 were Japanese. Slight imbalances in baseline characteristics were observed (Table). PFS and duration of response improvement in Japanese patients was consistent with global results.

      CI, confidence interval; DoR, duration of response; ECOG PS, Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance status; HR, hazard ratio; INV, investigator assessment.
      Objective response rates per IRC were similar (dacomitinib, 75.0% [95%CI, 58.8–87.3]; gefitinib, 75.6% [95%CI, 59.7–87.6]; 2-sided P=0.9579). Overall survival data are not mature. All 81 patients received study treatment. No grade 4/5 adverse events (AEs were observed with dacomitinib, while 3 grade 4 AEs and 1 grade 5 AE (disease progression) occurred with gefitinib. The most common grade 3 AEs were dermatitis acneiform (27.5%) and paronychia (22.5%) with dacomitinib and alanine aminotransferase increased (12.2%) and abnormal hepatic function (7.3%) with gefitinib. No new safety signals were identified.

      Conclusion:
      Dacomitinib significantly improved PFS and duration of response over gefitinib in first-line treatment of Japanese patients with advanced EGFR[+] NSCLC, with a manageable safety profile.
