MA13.02 - Incidence of Venous Thromboembolism at the Time of Lung Cancer Diagnosis: A Multicenter, Prospective Observational Trial (Rising-VTE/NEJ037) (Now Available) (ID 1195)
14:00 - 15:30 | Author(s): Yukari Tsubata
- Abstract
- Presentation
Background
Venous thromboembolism (VTE) is a most well-known kind of cancer associated thrombosis, and a common complication of malignancy. However, little is known about the incidence of VTE at the time of lung cancer diagnosis. This information is important for clinicians and patients to inform their decision-making about cancer treatment.
Method
The Rising-VTE/NEJ037 study was a multicenter, prospective, observational study with 40 participating Japanese institutions. It included 1,021 patients diagnosed with lung cancer unsuitable for radical resection or radiation between June 2016 and August 2018. The incidence of VTE and characteristics of patients diagnosed with VTE based on contrast-enhanced computed tomography or ultrasonography of the leg are described. Diagnosis of VTE was confirmed via central review by two radiologists.
Result
Baseline data was available for 1,013 patients. The median age was 71 years (range 30-94). Eighty-six percent of patients had non-small cell lung cancer and 13.5% had small cell lung cancer. Histological types included adenocarcinoma (N=645, 63.7%), squamous cell carcinoma (N=180, 17.8%), small-cell lung cancer (N=137, 13.5%) and others (N=42, 4.1%). There were 59 patients (5.8%) diagnosed with VTE, of whom 53.9% had deep vein thrombosis (DVT), 28.7% had pulmonary embolism (PE) and 24.6% had both DVT and PE. Most patients with VTE had adenocarcinomas (89.1%).
Conclusion
The incidence of VTE in this study seems to be higher than in the clinical setting, suggesting that screening may be desirable. Adenocarcinoma of the lung seems to be a risk factor for VTE that we should consider more carefully. The primary endpoint of this trial is the rate of symptomatic or asymptomatic recurrence or newly diagnosed VTE during 2 years after registration. Follow-up is ongoing, with a report of final findings planned for 2021. Clinical trial information: UMIN000020194. Funding: Daiichi Sankyo Company.

P2.14-52 - The Results from Plasma EGFR Mutation Analysis in NEJ026 Study (ID 602)
10:15 - 18:15 | Author(s): Yukari Tsubata
- Abstract
Background
EGFR mutation analysis of plasma circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) has been reported to be useful to detect resistant mutations and to predict the efficacy of treatment. In NEJ026 study, we demonstrated the PFS of erlotinib plus bevacizumab (BE) treatment was significantly superior to the erlotinib alone (E) in NSCLC patients harboring EGFR mutation. Evaluation of plasma EGFR mutations included in NEJ026 study as preplanned analysis.
Method
At the time points of pretreated (P0), 6 weeks after study treatment started (P1), and confirmed progressive disease (P2), the plasma samples were collected from the patients enrolled to NEJ026 study. The number of enrolled patients were 112 in BE and 114 in E. Plasma ctDNA analysis for detection of the activating EGFR mutation and T790M mutation were performed by modified PNA-LNA PCR clamp method.
Result
The total numbers of collected plasma samples in BE and E were 108 (96.4%) and 107 (95.5%) at P0, 95 (84.8%) and 97 (86.6%) at P1, and 42 (37.5%) and 53 (47.3%) at P2, respectively. In eligible patients having EGFR activating mutation detected by cytohistological specimens, detection rate of plasma EGFR mutation at P0 was 68% (147/215). The detection ratio of T790M mutation at P2 were similar in both arms: 8 (19.0%) in BE and 11 (20.8%) in E. By detection pattern of activating EGFR mutation, PFS was evaluated among three groups: type A (P0 (-),P1 (-)), type B (P0 (+), P1(-)), and type C (P0 (+), P1(+)). Type A achieved the best response to both TKI [Type A BE: 18.1 M (n = 32, 95% CI, 11.5 to upper limit not reached(NR)), E: 16.7 M (n = 26, 95% CI, 11.2 to NR )]. Type B also had better PFS to TKI and BE is more favorable effect than E compared to other types [type B BE: 15.5 M (n = 48, 95% CI, 12.4 to 23.3), E: 11.1 M (n = 57, 95% CI, 8.5 to 13.7)]. Type C showed worse response to both treatment [type C BE: 6.0M. (n = 12, 95% CI 2.6 to NR), E: 4.3 M (n = 10, 95% CI, 2.8 to 20.2)]. BE had better PFS in all types.
Conclusion
Frequency of T790M in P2 was similar among BE and E. When patients still had detectable activating EGFR mutation in plasma ctDNA after treatment for 6 weeks, you should consider that they might have poor response to both BE and E.
