P1.01-70 - Efficacy and Safety of Second- or Third-Line Nab-Paclitaxel + Durvalumab in Patients with Advanced NSCLC (ABOUND.2L+) (ID 13042)
16:45 - 18:00 | Author(s): Andrea Ardizzoni
- Abstract
Background
Cytotoxic chemotherapy may enhance the effect of immune checkpoint blockers (ICBs) through interaction with the immune system (immunostimulation) and cancer cells (increased antigenicity). The phase II ABOUND.2L+ trial investigated second-/third-line nab-paclitaxel monotherapy, nab-paclitaxel + CC-486, or nab-paclitaxel + durvalumab in patients with previously treated advanced-stage NSCLC. This report presents an updated analysis of the efficacy and safety from the nab-paclitaxel + durvalumab treatment arm.
a9ded1e5ce5d75814730bb4caaf49419 Method
Patients ≥ 18 years with advanced NSCLC and no more than 1 prior line of platinum-containing chemotherapy (ICBs in prior line, first/second, allowed) were included. Patients were treated with nab-paclitaxel on days 1 and 8 + durvalumab 1125 mg on day 15 of a 21-day cycle until unacceptable toxicity or progressive disease as per Response Evaluation Criteria In Solid Tumors (RECIST) v1.1 or immune-related RECIST v1.1. The primary endpoint was progression-free survival (PFS). Key secondary endpoints included overall response rate (ORR), disease control rate (DCR), overall survival (OS), and safety.
4c3880bb027f159e801041b1021e88e8 Result
A total of 79 patients were assigned to nab-paclitaxel + durvalumab. The median age of patients in that arm was 63.0 years; 68.4% were male, 97.5% were white, 77.2% had ECOG performance status 1, and 69.6% had nonsquamous histology; 8 patients received prior ICBs. Median and 1-year PFS were 4.5 months (95% CI: 3.45-5.88) and 25.7% (95% CI 16.3-36.2); median PFS in those with and without prior ICB treatment was NE (95% CI 1.38-NE) and 4.4 months (95% CI 2.96-5.68) and in those with squamous and nonsquamous histology was 6.0 months (95% CI 2.99-7.75) and 4.2 months (95% CI 2.86-5.75). The ORR was 27.8%, and DCR was 70.9%. Median OS was 10.1 months (95% CI: 7.75-NE). Median percentage of per protocol dose was 87.5% for nab-paclitaxel and 82.9% for durvalumab. All patients had at least 1 treatment-emergent adverse event (TEAE), and 67.9% had at least 1 grade 3 or 4 TEAE. Common TEAEs of special interest (all grades) included peripheral neuropathy (grouped term; 37.2%), diarrhea (34.6%), anemia (30.8%), dyspnea (25.6%), nausea (24.4%), cough (24.4%), pyrexia (19.2%), and neutropenia (17.9%). TEAEs leading to dose interruption/reduction (nab-paclitaxel and/or durvalumab) were reported in 73.1% of patients, and those leading to discontinuation in 11.5%.
8eea62084ca7e541d918e823422bd82e Conclusion
nab-Paclitaxel + durvalumab demonstrated promising antitumor activity and manageable toxicity in second- or third-line treatment of patients with advanced NSCLC. NCT02250326.

P1.01-93 - Quality of Life in Patients with Advanced NSCLC Treated in Second- or Third-Line with Nab-Paclitaxel + Durvalumab: ABOUND.2L+ (ID 12993)
16:45 - 18:00 | Author(s): Andrea Ardizzoni
- Abstract
Background
Quality of life (QoL) can be adversely affected in patients with advanced NSCLC, particularly those receiving second- or third-line treatment. In these patients, checkpoint inhibitors are a recommended treatment option. Through multiple mechanisms, including the release of tumor antigens via tumor cell lysis, chemotherapy can augment immunotherapeutic effects, which is the rationale for combining chemotherapy with immunotherapy agents. The phase II ABOUND.2L+ trial investigated second- or third-line nab-paclitaxel either alone or in combination with CC-486 or durvalumab in patients with advanced NSCLC. The objective of this analysis is to report QoL outcomes in patients treated with nab-paclitaxel + durvalumab from the ABOUND.2L+ trial.
a9ded1e5ce5d75814730bb4caaf49419 Method
Enrolled patients were ≥ 18 years with advanced NSCLC and no more than 1 prior line of platinum-containing chemotherapy. Immunotherapy in a prior line, first or second, was allowed. Patients were treated with nab-paclitaxel on days 1 and 8 + durvalumab 1125 mg on day 15 of a 21-day cycle. Treatment continued until unacceptable toxicity or disease progression per Response Evaluation Criteria In Solid Tumors (RECIST) v1.1 or immune-related RECIST v1.1. The primary endpoint was progression-free survival. QoL was a prespecified exploratory endpoint assessed using the Lung Cancer Symptom Scale (LCSS), EuroQol 5D-5L, and EORTC QLQ-C30 on day 1 of each cycle, and was examined through 6 cycles of treatment for this analysis.
4c3880bb027f159e801041b1021e88e8 Result
A total of 79 patients were assigned to the nab-paclitaxel + durvalumab arm. The median age was 63.0 years. Most patients were white (97.5%), male (68.4%), and had ECOG PS of 1 (77.2%). For the entire study, baseline and ≥ 1 postbaseline QoL assessments were completed by 58 (73.4%) patients. 41 patients completed 6 cycles of treatment with nab-paclitaxel + durvalumab. After cycle 6, the mean change from baseline in LCSS total score and pulmonary symptom score was 0.1 and −0.2, respectively. LCSS hemoptysis score improved relative to baseline at every treatment cycle; mean change from baseline after 6 cycles was 0.8. Mean change from baseline in the EuroQol 5D-5L visual analog scale score and EORTC QLQ-C30 global health status/QoL scale score after 6 cycles of treatment was 2.5 and −1.19, respectively.
8eea62084ca7e541d918e823422bd82e Conclusion
In general, patients with advanced NSCLC treated with second- or third-line nab-paclitaxel + durvalumab maintained their QoL through 6 cycles of treatment. NCT02250326.

P3.08-04 - OMEGA, A Randomized Trial of Local Ablative Therapy Vs. Conventional Treatment in Oligometastatic NSCLC – Trial in Progress (ID 13971)
12:00 - 13:30 | Author(s): Andrea Ardizzoni
- Abstract
Background
A recent randomized phase 2 study has shown that local ablative therapy in addition to systemic treatment was superior to maintenance therapy in prolonging disease-free survival in NSCLC patients harboring up to three metastatic sites.
Oligometastatic lung cancer (OM-NSCLC) seems thus to be associated with a better prognosis than usual Stage IV non-small cell lung cancer when radical local therapy of all metastatic sites is administered but the impact of such an approach on overall survival and quality of life remains unclear
a9ded1e5ce5d75814730bb4caaf49419 Method
A consortium of tertiary referral centres involved in Lung Cancer management at the national level was established with the aim of setting up a randomized trial addressing this issue
4c3880bb027f159e801041b1021e88e8 Result
A randomized trial of local ablative therapy in OM-NSCLC patients with potentially resectable or locally controlled primary tumors has been designed and 7 tertiary referral centers agreed to participate
Patients with synchronous or metachronous oligometastatic lung cancer (1-3 metastatic lesions) will be randomized to local ablative therapy + standard treatment Vs. standard treatment.
Balancing between study arms will be performed according to synchronous vs. metachronous presentation, Number of oligometastases, Nodal status and Oncogene-addiction or PDL-1 expression.
Primary outcome will be Overall Survival (OS) from randomization. The sample size is set to 195 patients.
Inclusion criteria include adequate performance status, primary tumor controlled or controllable staging with whole-body FDG PET scan and brain MRI, fit to receive at least 3 cycles of platinum-based doublet chemotherapy, or immunotherapy or targeted agents according to molecular profile.
Exclusion criteria include cerebral oligometastasis alone (will receive local therapy in any case),
metastasis in sites where normal radiotherapy constraints cannot be met, multiple subsolid nodules in the absence of extrapulmonary metastasis, prior malignant tumor with some exceptions, relevant co-morbidities that would significantly reduce life expectancy on their own,
Disease state and life status assessed on a 2-monthly basis by physical examination, whole-body CT scan plus repeat PET-scan if needed and Brain MRI if brain metastasis at enrolment. Toxicity and adverse events will be assessed according to NCI-Common Terminology Criteria. Quality of life will be assessed at randomization and after six months by the SF36/LCSS.
8eea62084ca7e541d918e823422bd82e Conclusion
There is a clear need for randomized controlled trials with overall survival as their main endpoint to confirm whether local ablative therapy indeed has a role in the management of oligometastatic lung cancer. The Omega trial will try to respond to such a need.

P3.16-02 - Phase III Study of Canakinumab (ACZ885) as Adjuvant Therapy in Patients with Surgically Resected NSCLC (ID 12069)
12:00 - 13:30 | Author(s): Andrea Ardizzoni
- Abstract
Background
Preclinical and clinical data suggest that cytokines such as interleukin (IL)-1β can promote angiogenesis and tumor growth, and are essential to tumor invasiveness. Canakinumab (ACZ885) is a high-affinity human IgGκ anti-IL-1β monoclonal antibody approved for patients with various IL-1–driven auto-inflammatory diseases. In the Phase III Canakinumab Anti-Inflammatory Thrombosis Outcomes Study (CANTOS) in patients with atherosclerosis, canakinumab was associated with a significant reduction in the incidence of fatal and non-fatal lung cancer in patients with increased high-sensitivity C-reactive protein levels. ACZ885T2301 (NCT03447769) is evaluating the efficacy and safety of adjuvant canakinumab versus placebo in patients with surgically resected non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).
a9ded1e5ce5d75814730bb4caaf49419 Method
This Phase III, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study is enrolling patients (≥18 years, Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group Performance Status ≤1) with completely resected (R0) American Joint Committee on Cancer (AJCC)/Union for International Cancer Control (UICC) v.8 stages II−IIIA and IIIB (T >5 cm and N2) NSCLC, who have completed standard-of-care adjuvant treatments, including cisplatin-based chemotherapy and mediastinal radiation therapy (if applicable). Prior treatment with neoadjuvant chemotherapy or radiotherapy is not permitted. Approximately 1500 patients will be randomized 1:1 to receive canakinumab (200 mg every 3 weeks [Q3W], subcutaneous [s.c.]) or placebo (Q3W, s.c.) on Day 1 of 21-day cycles for 18 cycles or until disease recurrence, unacceptable toxicity, treatment discontinuation at the discretion of the investigator or patient, death, or loss to follow-up. Following baseline screening, imaging assessment will be performed every 12 weeks for the first year (treatment phase) following Cycle 1 Day 1, then every 26 weeks during Years 2 and 3, and annually during Years 4 and 5 (post-treatment surveillance phase). Randomization will be stratified by AJCC/UICC v.8 stage, tumor histology, and region.
The primary objective is to compare disease-free survival (DFS) in the canakinumab versus placebo arms, as determined by local investigator assessment. Secondary objectives include a comparison of the two treatment groups with respect to overall survival (key secondary objective), lung cancer-specific survival, safety, pharmacokinetics and immunogenicity of canakinumab, and patient-reported outcomes. Exploratory objectives include assessment of the relationship between pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, safety, and efficacy, and evaluation of correlation between cytokines/soluble markers and efficacy endpoints. Enrollment is ongoing.
