      Background

      More than 40% of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients develop CNS metastasis in their lifetime. Osimertinib is a third-generation EGFR-TKI which selectively inhibits both EGFR-sensitizing and EGFR T790M resistance mutations. Clinical studies have shown superior efficacy of osimertinib in CNS compared to platinum chemotherapy. Treatment efficacy in patients with or without CNS metastasis were observed within the second interim analysis of ASTRIS (NCT02474355). Data cut-off (DCO) was 20 October 2017.

      a9ded1e5ce5d75814730bb4caaf49419 Method

      In ASTRIS, advanced NSCLC patients with a locally confirmed T790M mutation, WHO performance status 0-2, prior EGFR-TKI therapy were enrolled. Patients with stable CNS metastases were allowed. The primary endpoint was overall survival (OS); other endpoints included investigator-assessed response rate (RR), progression-free survival (PFS), time to treatment discontinuation (TTD) and safety. These endpoints were also analyzed according to presence of CNS metastasis.

      4c3880bb027f159e801041b1021e88e8 Result

      A total of 466 patients received at least one dose of osimertinib 80mg from 31 Korean sites. CNS metastasis was evaluated in 310 patients and was present in 211 (68.1%) patients (CNS-met); 181 brain only, 1 leptomeningeal only, 29 both. 99 (31.9%) patients did not have CNS metastasis (CNS-no), and 155 patients were not evaluated (CNS-ne). At DCO, 236 patients (50.6%) were ongoing and median duration of exposure was 11.2 (0–19) months. In patients evaluable for response, defined as at least one dose of osimertinib and one response assessment, RR was 71.0% (320/451; 95% CI, 66.5–75.1): Patients with (N=211), without (N=99), and not-evaluated CNS metastasis (N=155) had RR of 68% (134/197; 95% CI, 61.0-74.5), 79.6% (78/98; 95% CI, 70.3-87.1), and 69.7% (108/155; 95% CI, 61.8-76.8), respectively. Median PFS was 12.4 months (95% CI, 11.1-13.6 months); 10.8 months (95% CI, 9.5-11.5) in CNS-met,11.0 months (95% CI, 9.2-14.5) in CNS-no, and 15.1 months (95% CI, 13.6-18.2) in CNS-ne. Median TTD was 16.5 months (95% CI, 14.1-NC); 11.2 months (95% CI, 9.4-14.8) in CNS-met, 14.7 months (95% CI, 12.2-NC) in CNS-no, and NC (95% CI, 15.5-NC) in CNS-ne. OS was not reached (data maturity: 19.7%). Serious adverse event (AE) regardless of causality were reported in 116 patients (24.9%) and AEs leading to death in 13 patients (2.8%). ILD/pneumonitis-like events were reported in 8 patients (1.7%), and QTc prolongation in 7 patients (1.5%).

      8eea62084ca7e541d918e823422bd82e Conclusion

      In ASTRIS Korean subset, patients with or without CNS metastasis had comparable efficacy outcome. This data continues to support osimertinib’s clinical benefit on EGFRm T790M NSCLC patients with CNS metastasis.

      MA11.07 - Expression of LAG-3 and NY-ESO-1 In Tumor Cells is Promising Biomarker Predicting Durable Clinical Benefit of PD-1 Blockade in Advanced NSCLC (ID 12403)

      11:10 - 11:15  |  Author(s): Dong-Wan Kim

      • Abstract

      Background

      Anti-PD-1 antibodies are currently used in treating advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). PD-L1 expression in tumor cell or immune cell is the only available predictive biomarker in the clinic. Lymphocyte activation gene-3 (LAG-3) is an inhibitory checkpoint in immune cells and NY-ESO-1 is an antigen expressed in tumor cells. We investigated LAG-3 and NY-ESO-1 protein expression and its relationship to response to anti-PD-1 therapy in NSCLC.

      a9ded1e5ce5d75814730bb4caaf49419 Method

      We retrospectively reviewed the medical records of 38 patients with advanced NSCLC who were enrolled in prospective clinical trials of nivolumab or pembrolizumab monotherapy (NCT01295827, NCT01905657, and NCT02175017) between October 2013 and April 2016 at Seoul National University Hospital and Seoul National University Bundang Hospital. Immunohistochemial staining (IHC) of NY-ESO-1(E978, Invitrogen), and PD-L1 (22C3, Dako) in tumor cell and LAG-3(EPR4392, Abcam) in immune cell was performed to determine protein expression.

      4c3880bb027f159e801041b1021e88e8 Result

      LAG-3 and NY-ESO-1 protein expression were assessed in 38 patients. LAG-3, NY-ESO-1 and PD-L1 were expressed in 76.3% (29/38), 50% (19/38) and 18.5% (7/36, 50% cut-off value), respectively. Sixteen patients with durable clinical benefit (DCB, anti-PD-1 therapy more than 6-month) were grouped as responder. NY-ESO-1 expression (DCB 11/19 vs 5/19, p= .05) and LAG-3 expression (DCB 16/29 vs 0/9, p= .003) were significantly correlated with the DCB to Anti-PD-1 therapy, while PD-L1 expression was identified in 5 patients with DCB (5/7 vs 11/29, p= .12). Patients with both NY-ESO-1 and LAG-3 expression had high rate of DCB (73.3%, 11/15 pts). With the results of the interaction with DCB, the calculation of positive predictive value and negative predictive value about durable clinical benefit is assessed and the significance of each measurement was proven by Fisher’s exact test. As a result, NPV of LAG-3 expression in tumor cell was 100% and PPV of each protein expression was LAG-3 (55.17%), NY-ESO-1(57.89%) and PD-L1 (71.43%) respectively. In survival analysis, LAG-3 expression was a significant predictor for PFS (HR 0.170; CI 0.066-0.437; p< .0001) and OS (HR 0.250; CI 0.140-0.599; p= .002).

      8eea62084ca7e541d918e823422bd82e Conclusion

      NY-ESO-1 expression on tumor tissue and LAG-3 expression on tumor microenvironment may be useful for identifying advanced NSCLC patients for the treatment of anti-PD-1 therapy. These protein markers seem quite promising and warrant further investigation in large sample size.

      MA26.09 - Lazertinib, a Third Generation EGFR-TKI, in Patients with EGFR-TKI-Resistant NSCLC: Updated Results of a Phase I/II Study (ID 12817)

      14:30 - 14:35  |  Author(s): Dong-Wan Kim

      • Abstract
      • Presentation
      • Slides

      Background

      Lazertinib (YH25448) is a highly mutant-selective, irreversible 3rd-generation epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) that can penetrate the blood-brain barrier, and targets the activating EGFR mutations Del19 and L858R, as well as the T790M mutation, while sparing wild type. We report the updated results from a Phase I/II study of lazertinib (NCT03046992)

      a9ded1e5ce5d75814730bb4caaf49419 Method

      Patients with advanced and metastatic NSCLC who had progressed after treatment with EGFR-TKIs with/without asymptomatic brain metastases (BM) were enrolled in an open-label, multicenter, phase I/II study with dose-escalation and expansion cohorts. Lazertinib was administered once daily at doses between 20 to 320 mg in a 21-day cycle. Patients were assessed for safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics and efficacy. T790M status was confirmed in the dose-expansion cohorts.

      4c3880bb027f159e801041b1021e88e8 Result

      A total of 115 patients (median age 62 years, female 62%) were enrolled. The dose-escalation cohort included 38 patients administered with 20 to 320 mg across 7 dose levels, and 77 patients in the dose-expansion cohort were administered with 40 to 240 mg across 5 dose levels. No dose-limiting toxicities were observed in the dose-escalation cohort. Systemic exposure increased dose-dependently. Of the evaluable patients (n=110) at data cut-off, the objective response rate (ORR) was 65% (95% confidence interval [CI], 54.9 to 73.4). The ORR for 93 of the T790M+ patients was 69% (95% CI, 58.4 to 78.0). In patients with BM (n=12), the intracranial ORR was 50% (95% CI, 21.1 to 78.9). The most common treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs) were pruritus (19%), decreased appetite (17%), rash (14%), and constipation (12%). The most frequently reported TEAEs of grade ≥ 3 were hyponatraemia (2%), nausea (2%) and pneumonia (2%).

      8eea62084ca7e541d918e823422bd82e Conclusion

      Lazertinib was safe, well-tolerated and exhibited promising systemic and intracranial antitumor activity in EGFR T790M+ NSCLC patients. The dose-expansion cohort as the first and second-line setting has been initiated from April 2018.

      OA02.02 - Safety and Preliminary Clinical Activity of Ropotrectinib (TPX-0005), a ROS1/TRK/ALK Inhibitor, in Advanced ROS1 Fusion-Positive NSCLC (ID 14217)

      10:40 - 10:50  |  Author(s): Dong-Wan Kim

      • Abstract
      • Presentation
      • Slides

      Background

      Ropotrectinib is a potent ROS1/TRK/ALK inhibitor with a >90-fold greater ROS1 potency than crizotinib. Preclinical studies demonstrate robust activity against all known ROS1 resistance mutations, including solvent-front mutation G2032R.

      a9ded1e5ce5d75814730bb4caaf49419 Method

      In this Phase 1 study (NCT03093116), TKI-naïve and TKI-refractory (≥1 TKI) pts with advanced ALK/ROS1/TRK+ solid tumors received ropotrectinib. Asymptomatic brain metastases were allowed. Primary objectives were to determine MTD and RP2D, with safety, pharmacokinetics, and preliminary antitumor efficacy as the secondary objectives. This is a safety analysis of all pts and subgroup efficacy analysis of the ROS1+ NSCLC pts on the study.

      4c3880bb027f159e801041b1021e88e8 Result

      As of 16-April-2018, 72 pts have been treated at 6 dose levels from 40mg QD to 200mg BID. Most AEs were grade 1-2. Common (>10%) treatment-related AEs included dizziness (49%), dysgeusia (46%), paresthesias (29%), constipation (19%), fatigue (18%), nausea (11%), and anemia (11%). 4 DLTs were observed at ≥240mg/day: 1 grade 3 (Gr3) dyspnea/hypoxia, 2 Gr3 & 1 Gr2 dizziness. 31 of 72 pts had ROS1+ NSCLC by local testing (FISH, n=20; NGS, n=11) with 1 pt determined as ROS1-negative by central NGS. Antitumor activity in ROS1+ NSCLC has been observed at ROS1 dose levels 40mg QD-160mg BID per investigator assessment, with the best ORR 70% for TKI-naïve and 11% for TKI-refractory pts (17% for 1 prior TKI crizotinib, n=12) (Table). Two crizotinib-resistant pts with G2032R achieved durable cPR and cSD, respectively. Ongoing blinded independent review identified 7 evaluable pts with target CNS lesions at baseline; the intracranial best ORR was 43% (3 cPR, 1 PR*). Updated efficacy data and ctDNA biomarker analyses will be presented.

      • Abstract
      • Presentation
      • Slides

      Background

      Only one prospective study in western population suggests sunitinib is an effective treatment for thymic carcinoma (TC). We evaluated the clinical efficacy and toxicity of sunitinib in Korean patients with metastatic TC after platinum-based chemotherapy.

      a9ded1e5ce5d75814730bb4caaf49419 Method

      Between Sep 2015 and May 2017, we enrolled 25 patients with histologically confirmed platinum-refractory TC at three academic hospitals in Korea. Patients were eligible if they had progressive disease after one or more cytotoxic chemotherapy including platinum-based regimen, at least one measurable disease by RECIST (v1.1) and adequate organ function. Patients received 50mg of sunitinib on an alternative schedule (2weeks of treatment followed by 1 week without treatment) until objective progression of disease or unacceptable toxicity of treatment. The primary endpoint was objective response rate and tissue and blood specimen were collected for NGS panel analysis (170 genes, Hybrid capture based method). This trial was registered with Clinicaltrials.gov, number NCT 02623127.

      4c3880bb027f159e801041b1021e88e8 Result

      A total of 25 patients were enrolled in this trial. Median age was 62 (39-75) and 19 (76%) patients were male. Most patients (20 patients, 80%) received sunitinib as 2nd line treatment. Two patients discontinued treatment earlier than first tumor assessment due to toxicity and excluded from efficacy analysis. Among 23 evaluable patients, 5 (21.7%) patients had partial response and 16 (69.6%) patients achieved stable disease. Disease control rate (PR+SD>6m) was 56.5%. Median progression-free survival (PFS) was 15.2 months and 6 patients had ongoing responses at the time of analysis. Most common treatment-related adverse events were mucositis (12 patients, 48%), fatigue (9 patients, 36%), and hand-foot syndrome (9 patients, 36%). The most common grade 3/4 toxicity was thrombocytopenia (4 patients, 16%). Seventeen (68%) patients needed at least one dose reduction due to adverse events. Genomic profiling with NGS cancer panel revealed 2 patients with pathogenic KIT mutation (c.1879+1G>A and c.1671 G>C) who had PFS of 21.3m and 9.3m, respectively. In 15 patients with tumor tissue gene panel results, high tumor mutation burden (TMB) was significantly associated with longer PFS (median PFS not reached in TMB ≥30/MB vs. 3.45m in TMB <30/MB, P=0.03).

      8eea62084ca7e541d918e823422bd82e Conclusion

      Sunitinib with 2/1 schedule is an active treatment for TC after platinum-based chemotherapy.

      P2.12-01 - Efficacy of Belotecan as Second-Line Treatment for Recurrent Small Cell Lung Cancer: A Phase IIb Randomized Multicenter Study (ID 13658)

      16:45 - 18:00  |  Author(s): Dong-Wan Kim

      • Abstract
      • Slides

      Background

      Topotecan is recommended as second-line treatment for patients with progressive/recurrent extensive-stage small cell lung cancer (ES-SCLC) after platinum-based combination chemotherapy. Although some topotecan-treated patients may have at least an objective response (OR), response duration is often short. Belotecan, a camptothecin derivative topoisomerase I inhibitor, has shown promising antitumor activity and modest toxicities against advanced SCLC and ovarian cancers. We report efficacy data from a phase IIb randomized multicenter study of belotecan as second-line treatment for progressive/recurrent limited-disease (LD)- or ES-SCLC.

      a9ded1e5ce5d75814730bb4caaf49419 Method

      This study, conducted from March 2010 to March 2018, was designed to prove the non-inferiority of belotecan to topotecan. Patients were randomized (1:1) to belotecan 0.5 mg/m2 or topotecan 1.5 mg/m2 intravenously for 5 consecutive days every 3 weeks for 6 cycles or until disease progression. The primary endpoint was objective response rate (ORR; complete response [CR] or partial response [PR]) based on RECIST criteria; secondary endpoints were progression-free survival (PFS), overall survival (OS).

      4c3880bb027f159e801041b1021e88e8 Result

      Overall, 148 patients (belotecan, n=72; topotecan, n=76) were eligible in the full analysis set (FAS; patients who received at least one dose); 113 patients (belotecan, n=62; topotecan; n=51) were evaluable in the per-protocol set (PPS; patients who completed the study protocol). Clinical characteristics were well balanced between the two treatment arms. In the FAS, ORR was 33.33% (belotecan) and 21.05% (topotecan), respectively (95% CI: −0.0195 to 0.2651, p=0.0927). One belotecan recipient had a CR. Median OS was 396 days (belotecan) and 247 days (topotecan), respectively (p=0.0178); median PFS was 144 and 115 days, respectively (p=0.9608). Similar efficacy outcomes were observed in the PPS.

      8eea62084ca7e541d918e823422bd82e Conclusion

      Our data met the hypothesis that the antitumor efficacy of belotecan is non-inferior to that of topotecan as second-line treatment for patients with progressive/recurrent LD- or ES-SCLC. Belotecan was also associated with significantly longer OS. (ClinicalTrials.gov. ID: NCT01497873; https://clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/show/NCT01497873)

      P3.04-23 - Phase 1b/2 Study to Evaluate Novel Combinations With Oleclumab (MEDI9447) in Previously Treated Advanced EGFRm NSCLC (ID 12300)

      12:00 - 13:30  |  Author(s): Dong-Wan Kim

      • Abstract
      • Slides

      Background

      Patients with mutant EGFR (EGFRm) non–small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) have a limited chance of benefiting from treatment with programmed death-1 inhibitors. EGFR activation leads to overexpression of CD73 and may provide a mechanism of immune evasion. CD73 overexpression has also led to worse outcomes in multiple tumor types, including NSCLC. Recent studies demonstrated that an orthogonal therapeutic approach to cancer, such as combining tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) with immunotherapy, may result in synergistic clinical activity. Oleclumab is a human monoclonal antibody (mAb) that selectively binds to CD73 and inhibits the enzymatic production of adenosine. Adenosine exerts its immunosuppressive effects on various immune cells via the adenosine 2A receptor (A2AR). AZD4635 is a potent, selective A2AR antagonist that inhibits this signaling pathway. Osimertinib is a potent and selective inhibitor of EGFRm, including the T790M resistance mutation. We hypothesize that novel combinations of targeted and immunotherapeutic agents targeting the adenosine pathway will be well tolerated and lead to increased antitumor activity in subjects with EGFRm NSCLC.

      a9ded1e5ce5d75814730bb4caaf49419 Method

      This is a multi-arm, open-label, multicenter, phase 1b/2 study (NCT03381274) consisting of 2 parts. In Part 1, the safety and tolerability of oleclumab in combination with either osimertinib (Arm A) or AZD4635 (Arm B) will be evaluated, and a recommended phase 2 dose for each combination will be identified. In Part 2, the safety, tolerability, and preliminary antitumor activity will be evaluated. In both parts, patients will be allocated to treatment arms based upon their EGFRm status and their prior therapy. For Part 2, the primary objective of antitumor activity will be assessed by objective response according to RECIST v1.1. Key secondary objectives include additional evaluation of clinical activity, the pharmacokinetic profiles of oleclumab, osimertinib, and AZD4635, and the evaluation of oleclumab immunogenicity. Additional treatment arms may be added as the study progresses. The study is open for enrollment and recruitment is ongoing, with a planned enrollment of up to approximately 98 patients.

      Background

      Brigatinib has robust efficacy in crizotinib-resistant ALK+ NSCLC, exhibiting median progression-free survival (mPFS) of 16.7 months. We report results of the first interim analysis from the ALTA-1L study of brigatinib vs crizotinib in ALK TKI-naive, ALK+ NSCLC (NCT02737501).

      This open-label, multicenter study enrolled patients with stage IIIB/IV ALK+ NSCLC based on local ALK testing (FDA approved/other). Eligible patients had ECOG PS 0–2, ≤1 prior systemic therapy for locally advanced/metastatic NSCLC, and no prior ALK inhibitor. Asymptomatic CNS metastases were allowed. All patients had systematic CNS imaging. Patients were randomized 1:1 to brigatinib 180 mg QD with 7-day lead-in at 90 mg or crizotinib 250 mg BID. Primary endpoint: blinded independent review committee (BIRC)-assessed PFS (RECIST v1.1). Secondary efficacy endpoints included BIRC-assessed objective response rate (ORR), intracranial ORR (iORR), and intracranial PFS (iPFS). Interim analyses were planned at 50% and 75% of planned PFS events (n=198).

      275 patients were randomized (brigatinib/crizotinib, n=137/138); median age (years) 58/60. 26%/27% received prior chemotherapy for advanced disease, and 29%/30% had baseline brain metastases. At data cut-off (19 February 2018), median follow-up brigatinib/crizotinib: 11.0/9.25 months; with 99 PFS events, brigatinib met the prespecified threshold for statistical superiority vs crizotinib in the primary endpoint, BIRC-assessed PFS (HR 0.49, 95% CI 0.33–0.74, log-rank P=0.0007); brigatinib mPFS was not reached (95% CI NR–NR) vs crizotinib 9.8 months (95% CI 9.0–12.9). Investigator-assessed PFS HR 0.45 (95% CI 0.30–0.68), log-rank P=0.0001. Table shows additional efficacy data. Most common treatment-emergent AEs grade ≥3: brigatinib: increased CPK (16.2%), increased lipase (13.2%), hypertension (9.6%); crizotinib: increased ALT (9.5%), AST (5.8%), and lipase (5.1%). Any grade ILD/pneumonitis: brigatinib, 3.7%; crizotinib, 2.2%. Discontinuations due to AE (brigatinib/crizotinib): 11.8%/8.8%.

      Brigatinib showed a statistically and clinically significant improvement in PFS compared with crizotinib in ALK inhibitor–naive ALK+ NSCLC.
