EP1.04-07 - Influence of Radiotherapy in Second-Line Treatment with Immunotherapy in Patients with Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (Now Available) (ID 197)
08:00 - 18:00 | Author(s): Guillermo López-Vivanco
- Abstract
Background
Background: The aim of the present study is to analyze the influence of previous radiotherapy (RT) in the efficacy and toxicity in patients (pts) with non small cell lung cáncer (NSCLC) treated with inmunotherapy in second line.
Method
Methods: This is a retrospective study conduted between January 2017 and December 2018 at Hospital Universitario Cruces (Bizkaia) on pts treated with inmunotherapy (nivolumab or pembrolizumab) in second line. The primary end point was to analyze if the RT influence in the progression free survival (PFS) of inmunotherapy or in the toxicity. Secondary end points were overall survival (OS) and if any variable influences the difference between both cohorts in the PFS.
Result
Results: Forty eight pts were evaluated, and 22 (45.83%) had received RT previously. The baseline characteristics were as follows: median age 62 years (range 40-82); 62.5% males; 91.66% had an ECOG performance status (PS) 0-1; 37.5% had stage IV at diagnosis; only 3 of the 22 pts had received less tan 60 grays (Gys). There were no differences in the PFS, 14.49 months (m) in the cohort without RT and 18.19 m in those who have received it (p = 0.196) (image). The incidence of any grade of toxicity was similar, 26.92% and 22.72% in pts without and with RT respectively (p =0.112). 3 pts in the first group stopped inmonotherapy because of toxicity versus 2 pts in the cohort of RT. The OS was significantly longer in the cohort of RT, 36.49 vs. 20.54m, p = 0.034. It was calculated whether the time interval from the end of RT and the initiation of immunotherapy influences on the PFS; neither the cutoff point of 6 months (p = 0.788) nor the cutoff of 4 (p = 0.454) influenced the PFS. As in the second group more patients were diagnosed in EIII, the possible influence of the stage on the PFS was valued, and no significant differences were seen. Neither the previous QT scheme, sex, state of PD-L1 nor the baseline respiratory pathology influenced the PFS or the incidence of toxicity.
Conclusion
Conclusions: Our study suggests that having received prior RT does not influence the efficacy or toxicity of immunotherapy in the second line of treatment in NSCLC. A larger cohort and more follow-up time is needed to be able to draw conclusions.

MA02.01 - Reccurrence Pattern After Adjuvant Customized Chemotherapy Based on BRCA Expression Level (SCAT Trial) (Now Available) (ID 2760)
10:30 - 12:00 | Author(s): Guillermo López-Vivanco
- Abstract
- Presentation
Background
•Postop platinum-based CT improves outcomes in completely resected NSCLC with nodal involvement, (St II-IIIA). Customization is feasible in adjuvant setting (tissue availability) . Analysis of expressionin genes involved in DNA repair could be use to select CT regiment. •BRCA1 plays an important role in DNA repair pathways and functions as a differential regulator of response to cisplatin and antimicrotubuleagents. SCAT trial results found that for low BRCA1 levels subgroup Cis-Gemcitabine was superior to Cis-Docetaxel and in high BRCA1 levels subgroup Docetaxel single agent without platinum achieved similar survival to Cis-Doc. Analysis of recurrence pattern in different subgroups of the trials has been performed
Method
From Jun/2007 to May/2013 591 patients were screened and 500 p were included (108 in Control arm treated with Cisplatin-Docetaxel and 392 in Experimental arm treated with Cisplatin-Gemcitabine, Cisplatin-Docetaxel or Docetaxel alone according terciles BRCA1 expression level). With a cut-off September 30th 2018 and a median follow-up of 60 months, recurrence pattern are analysed in each arm and subgroup treatment and comparison are made for incidence of risk of recurrence, single/multiple recurrence, thoracic/extrathoracic and site of metastases (liver, bone, brain)
Result
Cumulative recurrence 232/456 evaluable patients (p) (50.8%). Recurrence were seen in 182/354 patients treated in experimental arm and in 50/102 p treated in the control arm (RR 1.04; 0.83-1.30) (p=0.672). Majority of recurrences 159/232 (68.5%) were single site recurrence. Intrathoracic recurrences in 121/232 (52%) while extrathoracic metastatic disease 111/232 (47.8%). No significant differences were seen for single/multiple, intra/extrathoracic recurrences between experimental and control arm. More frequent distant metastatic sites were: bone (42 p), brain (38 p) and liver (11 p) In the experimental group between different treatments no significant differences were found for the overall metastatic rate or for the single/multiple, intrathoracic/extrathoracic recurrences. For specific metastatic sites related to experimental treatment a significant reduction of risk of brain metastases were found in the experimental group with high level BRCA1 treated with Docetaxel single agent (p=0.0016)
Conclusion
For NSCLC resected patients with lymph node involvement (Stages II-IIIA) risk of recurrence remains high with cumulative rate > 50%. There were no differences in the Relative Risk (1.04) of recurrence when control and experimental arm are compared. Majority of recurrences were single site (68.5%) and intrathoracic (52%) but distant metastases developed in 47.8% os p. More frequent metastatic site was bone, followed by brain and liver. Brain metastases risk were significant lower for patients with low BRCA1 expression treated with single agent Docetaxel

OA13.05 - NADIM Study: Updated Clinical Research and Outcomes (Now Available) (ID 1670)
11:30 - 13:00 | Author(s): Guillermo López-Vivanco
- Abstract
- Presentation
Background
Patients with stage IIIA (N2 or T4N0) are potentially curable but median overall survival is only around 15 months
Method
A Phase II, single-arm, open-label multicenter study of resectable stage IIIA N2-NSCLC in adult patients with CT plus IO as neoadjuvant treatment: 3 cycles of nivolumab (NV) 360 mg IV Q3W + paclitaxel 200 mg/m2 + carboplatin AUC 6 IV Q3W followed by adjuvant NV treatment for 1 year. After completing neoadjuvant therapy, all patients underwent tumor assessment prior to surgery. Surgery was performed during the 3rd or 4th week after day 21 of the 3rd neoadjuvant treatment cycle. The study aimed to recruit 46 patients. The primary endpoint was Progression-Free Survival (PFS) at 24 months. Efficacy was explored using objective pathologic response criteria. Here we present the final data on all study patients that underwent surgical assessment.
Result
At the time of submission, the 46 patients had been included. None of the patients were withdrawn from the study preoperatively due to progression or toxicity. 41 patients had undergone surgery and all tumors were deemed resectable with R0 resection in all cases. Intention to treat analysis shows 35 patients (85%; 95% CI, 71; 94%) achieved major pathologic response (MPR) of which 25 (71%; 95% CI, 54; 85%) were complete pathologic responses (CPR). Downstaging was seen in 38 (93%; 95% CI, 80; 98%) of cases. The median follow-up was 13.8 months (P25; P75: 11.7; 16.6 months) for both the whole series and resected patients, and 12 month PFS was 95.7% (95% CI, 84; 99%).
Conclusion
This is the first multicentric study to test CT-IO in the neoadjuvant setting in stage IIIA. Neoadjuvant CT-IO with nivolumab in resectable IIIA NSCLC yields a complete pathologic response rate that is higher than ever seen previously, together with a promising PFS which may translate into increased overall survival. EudraCT Number: 2016-003732-20. Clinical trial information: NCT 03081689.

P2.04-10 - Biomarkers of Pathological Response on Neo-Adjuvant Chemo-Immunotherapy Treatment for Resectable Stage IIIA NSCLC Patients (ID 1466)
10:15 - 18:15 | Author(s): Guillermo López-Vivanco
- Abstract
Background
PD1/PDL1 treatments have become the main therapy in advanced stages of NSCLC due to its significant increase in overall survival (OS), but recently, combination with chemotherapy in locally advanced stages is showing promising results. Many studies have described peripheral blood immune cells parameters as biomarkers of response to immunotherapy. In our study, we described the effect of neo-adjuvant chemo-immunotherapy treatment in Complete Blood Count (CBC) and Peripheral Blood Mononuclear Cells (PBMCs) phenotype, as well as, the association of these parameters with the degree of pathological response.
Method
Immune cell populations of 46 resectable stage IIIA NSCLC patients treated with neo-adjuvant chemo-immunotherapy from NADIM clinical trial were analysed. Samples were extracted before initiating the neo-adjuvant treatment with nivolumab plus carboplatin and at the third cycle before patients underwent surgery. We classified patients in 3 subgroups of pathological response assessed in the resection specimen: complete response (pCR), major response (<10% viable tumour) and incomplete response (>10% viable tumour, pIR). Wilcoxon and Mann-Whitney U statistic test were used to evaluate differences between pre and post treatment and between pathological responses groups respectively.
Result
From 46 patients, 5 patients did not undergo surgery, so they were excluded from the analysis. Absolute numbers of Leucocytes, Eosinophil, Monocytes, Neutrophils, Haemoglobin and Platelets from hemograms were significantly reduced after neo-adjuvant treatment. However, no changes were observed for Lymphocytes, Basophils, LDH levels or the Lung Immune Prognostic Index (LIPI). Additionally, post-treatment Neutrophil-to-Lymphocyte (NLR), Myeloid-to-Lymphoid lineage (M:L) and Platelets-to-Lymphocytes (PLR) ratios were decreased. Remarkably, from all the CBC absolute numbers and ratios, only PLR variation showed differences between pCR and pIR.
On the other hand, percentages of PBMCs (T cells, B cells, NK cells and macrophages) did not vary after neo-adjuvant treatment, however activation of CD4 T cells and NK cells as well as PD-1 receptor expression on immune cells were downregulated after neo-adjuvant chemo-immunotherapy. Interestingly, these variations correlate with pCR.
Conclusion
In our study, PLR, PD-1 expression, CD4 T cells and NK cells activation are predictive biomarkers of response to treatment. Thus, a higher decrease on PLR post neo-adjuvant treatment is associated to pCR. Moreover, a decrease of PD-1 expression in CD4, CD8 and NK cells, as well as, a reduction of CD4 T cells and NK cells activation after neo-adjuvant treatment, are associated to pCR.
