MA04.01 - Cemiplimab, a Human Monoclonal Anti-PD-1, Alone or in Combination with Radiotherapy: Phase 1 NSCLC Expansion Cohorts (ID 13177)
13:30 - 13:35 | Author(s): Pilar Garrido
- Abstract
Background
Cemiplimab (REGN2810), a human monoclonal anti-PD-1, has exhibited substantial antitumor activities in patients with advanced malignancies in a first-in-human study. We report interim results of the Phase 1 expansion cohorts (ECs 1 and 2) of cemiplimab, alone or plus radiotherapy, in advanced NSCLC (NCT02383212).
a9ded1e5ce5d75814730bb4caaf49419 Method
Patients with advanced NSCLC who had relapsed after, or were refractory to, at least, first-line therapy received cemiplimab 200 mg Q2W in EC 1, or cemiplimab 3 mg/kg Q2W plus radiotherapy (9 Gy × 3 times/week 1 week after first dose of cemiplimab) to a single lesion in EC 2. For EC 2, patients were required to have NSCLC for which palliative radiation therapy was indicated. Planned treatment duration was up to 48 weeks in both ECs. The co-primary objectives were to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and efficacy of cemiplimab, alone or plus radiotherapy. Tumor measurements (of non-irradiated lesions) were performed by RECIST 1.1 Q8W.
4c3880bb027f159e801041b1021e88e8 Result
As of Sept 1, 2017, 20 patients (13 M/ 7 F; median age 64.0 years [range, 50–82]) and 33 patients (22 M/ 11 F; median age 67.0 years [range, 47–82]) were enrolled in EC 1 and EC 2, respectively. ECOG performance status 1 versus 0 was 80.0% versus 20.0% and 66.7% versus 30.3%, respectively, for ECs 1 and 2, and missing in one in EC 2; 75.0% (EC 1) and 48.5% (EC 2) had received prior radiotherapy. Investigator-assessed overall response rate (ORR; complete response [CR] + partial response [PR]) was 40.0% (1 CR and 7 PRs) and 18.2% (6 PRs) in EC 1 and EC 2, respectively. Disease control rate (ORR + stable disease [SD]) was 60.0% (1 CR + 7 PRs + 4 SDs) and 72.7% (6 PRs + 18 SDs) in EC 1 and EC 2, respectively. The most common treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs) of any grade were arthralgia, asthenia, cough, and dyspnea (each 20.0%) in EC 1, and decreased appetite (30.3%), fatigue (27.3%), cough (24.2%), asthenia and back pain (each 21.2%) in EC 2. Grade ≥3 TEAEs occurring in ≥2 patients were pneumonia (10.0%) in EC 1; and anemia (12.1%), hypophosphatemia and urinary tract infection (each 6.1%) in EC 2. One patient in EC 2 experienced TEAE of pneumonitis with an outcome of death, considered related to study drug.
8eea62084ca7e541d918e823422bd82e Conclusion
Cemiplimab monotherapy demonstrated substantial antitumor activity in pretreated NSCLC patients. The safety profiles were comparable with other anti-PD-1 agents and radiotherapy.

MA26.10 - CNS Activity of Ramucirumab in Combination with Osimertinib in Patients with Advanced T790M-Positive EGFR-Mutant NSCLC (ID 12295)
14:35 - 14:40 | Author(s): Pilar Garrido
- Abstract
- Presentation
Background
Many patients with NSCLC develop central nervous system (CNS) metastasis. Osimertinib, a novel third-generation EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI), has previously demonstrated CNS and systemic efficacy in patients with EGFR-mutant NSCLC. Combination of an EGFR TKI with a VEGF/VEGFR2-directed monoclonal antibodies (mAb) have shown promising results in EGFR-mutant NSCLC. Ramucirumab, human IgG1 VEGFR2 mAb, was used in combination with osimertinib. Planned exploratory and CNS response analyses aim to examine the safety/efficacy of ramucirumab+osimertinib in patients with CNS metastasis.
a9ded1e5ce5d75814730bb4caaf49419 Method
In this ongoing, open-label, multicenter Phase 1 study (NCT02789345), patients with T790M-positive EGFR-mutant (Ex19del or L858R) NSCLC who had relapsed after first-line EGFR TKI therapy were enrolled. Patients with asymptomatic and stable CNS metastasis (with/without prior radiotherapy) were eligible. Primary objective of the study was to assess safety and tolerability of ramucirumab+osimertinib. Secondary endpoints include objective response rate (ORR) and disease control rate (DCR). Exploratory endpoints relevant to CNS include CNS ORR and CNS DCR.
4c3880bb027f159e801041b1021e88e8 Result
Patients (N=25) were 45-80 years (median 64) with ECOG-PS 0 (n=3) or 1 (n=22) and 10 patients had CNS metastasis at enrollment while 15 never had CNS metastasis. Patients with CNS metastasis could have had prior radiotherapy (n=7) or no radiotherapy (n=3) to the CNS. Median follow-up time was 7.23 months. Fifteen patients remained on study treatment (five with CNS metastasis, ten without). TEAEs of interest (CNS metastasis, no CNS metastasis), such as headache (4/10, 5/15), vomiting (3/10, 4/15), and nausea (2/10, 4/15), were observed with comparable rates in patients with or without CNS metastasis. One patient developed TEAE of cerebral hemorrhage (Grade 1), related to CNS metastasis, but unrelated to study treatment, according to the investigator. Another patient with CNS metastasis developed Grade 5 TRAE of subdural hemorrhage, unrelated to CNS metastasis, ~7 weeks after the last dose of ramucirumab. Only one patient with CNS metastasis had measurable CNS lesions (tumor shrinkage of 24% [SD] as best response). The other nine patients with CNS metastasis had non-measurable CNS lesions, one of whom had a CNS complete response; his systemic best response was SD. The rest of patients had CNS non-CR/non-PD. To date, one patient (1/25) developed CNS progression (due to new CNS lesion); her CNS best response was SD.
8eea62084ca7e541d918e823422bd82e Conclusion
Ramucirumab+osimertinib showed potential antitumor activity in the CNS. Patients with CNS metastasis, with/without prior radiotherapy, appeared to tolerate this combination similarly to patients without CNS metastasis.

P1.09-09 - Evaluation of a Novel ROS1 Immunohistochemistry Clone (SP384) for the Identification of ROS1 Rearrangements in NSCLC Patients (ID 12744)
16:45 - 18:00 | Author(s): Pilar Garrido
- Abstract
Background
After the approval of crizotinib in ROS1 rearranged NSCLCs, the importance of accurately identifying those patients has never been greater. Although the recently updated guideline for molecular testing supports the use of ROS1 IHC as a screening test, to the best of our knowledge, only one ROS1 clone is commercially available and most published comparison studies involve a relatively small numer of positive cases. This situation prompted us to investigate a novel ROS1 IHC antibody in a large series of ROS1 positive NSCLCs samples.
a9ded1e5ce5d75814730bb4caaf49419 Method
Thirty-nine ROS1 FISH-positive (i.e., gold standard) samples from patients with NSCLCs procured at 22 hospitals were used for this study. In addition, 20 consecutive ROS1 FISH-negative samples from NSCLCs diagnosed at the referral institution were included as negative controls. The material available for all tumors had been formalin-fixed and paraffin-embedded. The specifics of formalin fixation were unknown. All specimens were independently screened for ROS1 expression by two IHC antibodies (clone D4D6 from Cell Signaling Technology and clone SP384 provided by Ventana Medical Systems, Inc.) according to previously published methodology or the manufacturer´s instructions. FISH-validated ROS1-positive external controls were included in all the slides. The slides were reviewed by two pathologists blinded to FISH results. The results of both ROS1 IHC assays were evaluated using a modified H-score: strong cytoplasmic staining (3+), clearly visible using a ×2 or ×4 objective; moderate staining (2+), requiring a ×10 or ×20 objective to be clearly seen; and weak staining (1+), cannot be seen until a ×40 objective is used. Both anti-ROS1 IHC staining results were finally interpreted using a binary scoring system: positive (3+ or 2+) or negative (1+ or 0).
4c3880bb027f159e801041b1021e88e8 Result
In ROS1 FISH-negative cases, positive immunoreactivity (3+ or 2+) was observed in 25% and 5% of samples by SP384 and D4D6, respectively. In ROS1 FISH-positive cases, positive expression above the threshold was always present with both antibodies except for one sample that was only stained with SP384. In 4 positive cases (10.3%) by SP384 and 22 positive tumors (56.4%) by D4D6, we noted significant intratumoral heterogeneity, ranging from weak to strong protein expression.
8eea62084ca7e541d918e823422bd82e Conclusion
We have studied a very large series of ROS1 FISH-positive NSCLCs with a novel IHC clone, which showed excellent sensitivity. The predominantly homogeneous and intense staining may support the use of a dichotomous scoring approach, before confirmation with FISH or a molecular method.

P2.09-11 - TMB Estimated with Targeted NGS in Early Stage Squamous Cell Carcinoma: Correlation with PD-L1 Expression and Lymphocyte Density (ID 12774)
16:45 - 18:00 | Author(s): Pilar Garrido
- Abstract
Background
It has been proposed that a combination of assays may refine the prediction of response to checkpoint inhibitors, with tumour mutation burden (TMB) being lately the strongest biomarker associated with efficacy. Although some targeted next generation sequencing (NGS) assays provide a good estimate of whole exome sequencing TMB, they are only available throughout referral laboratories. We sought to investigate the possibility of profiling TMB in-house with a commercially available targeted NGS assay, and to correlate the results with survival, the status of TP53, PD-L1 overexpression and tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs).
a9ded1e5ce5d75814730bb4caaf49419 Method
The study included samples from 40 patients diagnosed with early-stage lung squamous cell carcinoma. PD-L1 immunohistochemistry (IHC) was performed with two clones (SP263 and SP142, Ventana Medical Systems). CD8+ TILs were scored with a digital algorithm. The status of TP53 (exons 4–10) was investigated with direct sequencing. Ion TorrentTM OncomineTM Tumor Mutation Load Assay (ThermoFisher Scientific), a targeted NGS assay which covers 1.7Mb across 409 cancer driver genes, was used to assess TMB. NGS was performed on genomic DNA from FFPE tumor samples using the Ion S5TM system. The results were analyzed with the Ion ReporterTM software. According to the manufacturer’s instructions, TMB was calculated based on the number of non-synonymous somatic mutations, after removing polymorphisms and known or predicted driver mutations from all the variants. We investigated the correlation between TMB and PD-L1 expression, lymphocyte density, TP53 status and survival.
4c3880bb027f159e801041b1021e88e8 Result
TMB data was available for all 40 patients. The mean and median number of mutations was 13 and 11, respectively. CD8+/mm2 TILs within the peritumoral stromal compartment ranged from 312 to 4793 and within the intraepithelial compartment ranged from 17 to 2002. Sixty percent and 32% of cases were positive in tumor cells with SP263 or SP142, respectively (1% cut-off). Immune cells PD-L1 expression (1% cut-off) was observed in 92% of samples with both clones. No correlation was found between PD-L1 expression or lymphocyte density and TMB. Tumors with TP53 mutations showed non-significant higher numbers of mutations than those wild-type (p=0.075). Accordingly, there was a similar trend for overall survival using the median number of mutations as a cut-off (p=0.137, HR, 5.29).
8eea62084ca7e541d918e823422bd82e Conclusion
It is feasible to use targeted NGS to estimate TMB. In our pilot study, there was no obvious correlation with other immunooncology predictive biomarkers.
