      Background

      Chemoradiation (CRT) is standard of care for unresectable stage III NSCLC. Tecemotide is a MUC1 antigen-specific cancer immunotherapy. Bevacizumab is considered to have a significant role in immune modulation. Immunotherapy in combination with VEGF blockade was tested in this phase II trial combining tecemotide and bevacizumab in patients with stage III NS- NSCLC.

      a9ded1e5ce5d75814730bb4caaf49419 Method

      Subjects with stage III NS- NSCLC suitable for definitive CRT received carboplatin(C) AUC 2 + paclitaxel(P) 45 mg/m2 weekly + 66 Gy/33fx/6.5wk and consolidation C AUC 6 + P 225 mg/m2 q21 days x 2. Patients with CR/PR/SD were then registered onto Step 2 (S2). S2 was 6 weekly tecemotide injections followed by q6 weekly injections and bevacizumab 15 mg/kg q3 weeks for up to 34 doses. The primary endpoint was safety of tecemotide and bevacizumab after CRT and consolidation. The proportion of circulating dendritic cells and their expression of CD40, HLA-DR and CD123 (IL-3R) were analyzed by flow cytometry at various time points.

      70 patients were enrolled from Dec 2010 to Oct 2014; 68 started therapy, and 39 completed CRT and consolidation therapy. Reasons for discontinuation included progression (11) and toxicity (10). 33 patients were registered to S2. The median number of S2 cycles was 12 (range 2-34). S2 toxicity: gr 3 N=9 (6 hypertension), gr 4 N=1, gr 5 N=1. Among the treated and eligible patients (n=31), from study entry, the median PFS was 14.3 (95% CI 11.0-22.2), OS was 40.1 (95% CI 21.7-NA) months. A correlative trend of increased expression of CD40 and HLA-DR on CD11c+ cells was observed at cycle 7 (week 21) of S2.

      MA21.11 - Epigenomic Mapping of Cell-Free DNA in Patients with Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (ID 14055)

      Background

      Epigenetic modifications such as DNA methylation play an important role in human cancers, and have been implicated in tumor progression and drug resistance. Prior studies suggest 5-hydroxymethylcytosine (5hmC) has many important regulatory functions, given the colocalization of 5hmC within regulatory regions such as transcription factor binding sites, promotors and enhancers. Elevated 5hmC levels have been associated with increased gene expression. Genome-wide mapping of 5hmC has been performed in several different cells and tissues including brain and bone, though this has not previously been studied in lung cancer. It is possible the 5hmC profile can serve as a valuable biomarker for diagnosis, assessment for resistance, and surveillance for recurrence in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).

      a9ded1e5ce5d75814730bb4caaf49419 Method

      This was an exploratory study with a primary objective to perform genome-wide 5-hydroxymethylcytosine profiling of circulating cell-free DNA (cfDNA) in patients with epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR)-mutated lung cancer. Thirty-three different patient samples were collected from 32 different patients with advanced NSCLC with a known EGFR mutation by prior tissue genotyping such as FoundationMedicine or cfDNA such as Guardant. Samples were classified as “controlled” if the disease burden was stable or decreasing, versus “uncontrolled” if disease burden was increasing. Patients ranged from previously untreated to heavily pretreated. Full profiling of 5hmC in cfDNA was performed.

      4c3880bb027f159e801041b1021e88e8 Result

      A difference in modification between “controlled” and “uncontrolled” disease was found in 311 differentially modified regions (p<0.01), and in 189 differentially modified genes(p<0.01).

      8eea62084ca7e541d918e823422bd82e Conclusion

      In a retrospective analysis, a strong correlation exists between the methylation of specific regions and genes and the state of disease control. Future research should focus on if 5hmC profiling can be used to monitor disease status, to predict response to treatment, or alongside ctDNA for diagnostic accuracy.

      OA12.01 - Phase II Data for the MET Inhibitor Tepotinib in Patients with Advanced NSCLC and MET Exon 14-Skipping Mutations (ID 12896)

      15:15 - 15:25  |  Author(s): Jyoti Patel

      • Abstract
      • Presentation
      • Slides

      Background

      A subset (3%) of NSCLCs harbor mutations of the MET proto-oncogene that cause MET exon 14 skipping (METex14) and accumulation of active MET lacking a juxtamembrane domain. We report interim data from a single-arm phase II trial (NCT02864992) investigating the efficacy and safety of the potent, selective tyrosine-protein kinase MET inhibitor tepotinib in patients with METex14-skipping mutation-positive (METex14+) NSCLC.

      a9ded1e5ce5d75814730bb4caaf49419 Method

      Recruitment of ≤120 adult patients with advanced METex14+ NSCLC without EGFR-activating mutations or ALK rearrangements is ongoing. METex14+ mutations are identified in FPE tumor (T) material and/or plasma (L; 60 patients each, overlap anticipated) by a central laboratory. Patients receive tepotinib 500mg QD until disease progression, intolerable toxicity, or withdrawal. Primary endpoint: objective response rate (ORR). Secondary endpoints include safety.

      4c3880bb027f159e801041b1021e88e8 Result

      Forty-one patients have been treated to date; data are available for 34 (median age 73.5 years; 23 male; 24/8 Caucasian/Asian; prior lines of therapy: 0, n=12; 1, n=11; 2, n=10; 3, n=1; stage IVA, n=4; stage IV, n=29; stage IIIB, n=1). Treatment is ongoing in 24 patients. Based on investigator assessment, 13/22 (59.1%) evaluable patients responded: 1 had a confirmed complete response; 12 had a confirmed partial response (PR); 3 (13.6%) had stable disease for ≥12 weeks (SD). Based on independent review, 9/22 (40.9%) had a confirmed PR; 5 (22.7%) had SD. Duration of response >12 months in 2 patients. Twenty (58.8%) patients have experienced tepotinib-related treatment-emergent adverse events (TRTEAEs), including serious TRTEAEs in 3 (8.8%): pneumonia =1, generalized oedema=1, interstitial lung disease=1, and grade ≥3 TRTEAEs in 6 (17.6%): generalized oedema=1, pneumonia=1, ALT increased=1, AST increased=1, amylase increased=2, gamma GT increased=1, lipase increased=1, hyperkalemia=1; no TRTEAEs were grade ≥4 or led to death. Five (14.7%) patients have died.

      OA12.07 - Clinical Activity of LOXO-292, a Highly Selective RET Inhibitor, in Patients with RET Fusion+ Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (ID 13922)

      16:20 - 16:30  |  Author(s): Jyoti Patel

      Background

      RET kinase gene fusions are actionable drivers that occur in ~2% of non-small cell lung cancers (NSCLC). However, the clinical activity of multikinase inhibitors (MKIs) with anti-RET activity in RET fusion+ NSCLC patients has been limited. LOXO-292 is a highly selective RET inhibitor, with preclinical activity against diverse RET fusions, potential acquired resistance mutations, and against brain metastases.

      a9ded1e5ce5d75814730bb4caaf49419 Method

      LIBRETTO-001 is a multicenter global phase 1/2 study (26 sites, 9 countries) enrolling patients w/ advanced solid tumors (NCT03157128) including RET fusion+ NSCLC. Patients are dosed orally in 28-day cycles with dose escalation following a 3+3 design. The primary endpoint is MTD/recommended dose determination. Secondary endpoints include safety, overall response rate (ORR, RECIST 1.1) and duration of response (DoR). Initial data were presented at the ASCO 2018 Annual Meeting.

      4c3880bb027f159e801041b1021e88e8 Result

      As of 02-April 18, 82 solid tumor patients (including 38 RET fusion+ NSCLC) were treated at 8 doses (20 mg QD-240 mg BID). The MTD was not reached. AEs (≥10% of patients) were fatigue (20%), diarrhea (16%), constipation (15%), dry mouth (12%), nausea (12%), and dyspnea (11%); most were grade 1-2. 2 TEAEs ≥ grade 3 were attributed to LOXO-292 (Gr3 tumor lysis syndrome, Gr3 increased ALT). Of the 38 RET fusion+ NSCLC pts, 30 had at least 1 post-baseline assessment or discontinued LOXO-292 prior to such assessment. 26 of 30 patients (87%) had >20% radiographic tumor reduction (range: -21 to -72%). The ORR was 77% (23/30, 3 responses pending confirmation) with a confirmed ORR of 74% (20/27, excluding 3 patients with unconfirmed responses). The response rate was similar regardless of prior MKI treatment (12/15 MKI-naïve, 11/15 MKI pretreated). Responses occurred independent of upstream fusion partner when known (13/16 KIF5B vs 9/11 other) and included patients w/ baseline brain metastases. Most patients remained on treatment (33/38), including all responders. The median DoR was not reached (longest response was the first responder: >10+ months). Rapid plasma clearance of RET variants was observed, with complete clearance by day 15 in 10 of 17 (59%) NSCLC patients with assessable baseline and day 15 ctDNA.

      8eea62084ca7e541d918e823422bd82e Conclusion

      LOXO-292 was well-tolerated and had marked antitumor activity in RET-fusion+ NSCLC patients, including those w/ resistance to prior MKIs and brain metastases. Phase 2 cohorts are now open globally (160 mg BID). Updated safety and efficacy data as of 19 Jul 2018 will be presented.
