      Background:
      FLAURA (NCT02296125) is a Phase III, double-blind, randomized study assessing efficacy and safety of osimertinib vs standard of care (SoC) EGFR-TKI as first-line treatment for patients with EGFRm advanced NSCLC. Concordance between tissue and plasma testing for EGFRm (Ex19del/L858R), and progression-free survival (PFS) by baseline plasma EGFRm status were evaluated.

      Method:
      Eligible patients: ≥18 years (Japan ≥20 years); Ex19del/L858R mutation-positive lung adenocarcinoma; no prior systemic anti-cancer/EGFR-TKI therapy for advanced NSCLC. Randomization: 1:1 to osimertinib 80 mg once daily (qd) orally (po) or SoC (gefitinib 250 mg or erlotinib 150 mg, qd po). At baseline, patients provided tumor tissue samples for central analysis of EGFRm status (cobas EGFR Mutation Test) and blood samples for retrospective analysis of EGFRm status by plasma ctDNA (cobas EGFR Mutation Test v2). PFS by baseline plasma EGFRm status was assessed. Comparison of EGFRm status between baseline tumor tissue and evaluable ctDNA samples was an exploratory endpoint.

      Result:
      Globally, 556 patients were randomized: osimertinib, n=279; SoC, n=277. Good concordance was observed between central laboratory tissue and plasma testing for EGFRm in the screened population (see table). In plasma EGFRm-positive patients (n=359), osimertinib (n=183) reduced the risk of progression or death by 56% vs SoC (n=176), hazard ratio (HR) 0.44 (95% CI 0.34, 0.57). This was consistent with the overall PFS result observed with osimertinib vs SoC in the full analysis set (FAS; tumor tissue EGFRm-positive by local/central testing), HR 0.46 (95% CI 0.37, 0.57); p<0.0001 and in plasma EGFRm-negative patients (n=124: osimertinib, n=60; SoC, n=64), HR 0.48 (95% CI 0.28, 0.80).Figure 1



      Conclusion:
      In the subgroup of plasma EGFRm-positive patients, clinical benefit of osimertinib was superior to SoC, consistent with the overall FLAURA FAS. These results, and good concordance between tissue and plasma testing for EGFRm, support the utility of plasma EGFRm testing for selecting patients eligible for first-line osimertinib treatment.

      OA 09.03 - TATTON Ph Ib Expansion Cohort: Osimertinib plus Savolitinib for Pts with EGFR-Mutant MET-Amplified NSCLC after Progression on Prior EGFR-TKI (ID 8985)

      Background:
      MET amplification is a well described mechanism of acquired resistance to EGFR inhibition in EGFR-mutant NSCLC, making combined MET/EGFR inhibition a compelling therapeutic approach. We previously reported tolerability of the oral, CNS active, third-generation EGFR-TKI osimertinib, which is selective for both EGFR-TKI sensitizing and EGFR T790M resistance mutations, combined with the highly selective MET-TKI savolitinib (volitinib, HMPL-504, AZD6094). Here we assess safety and preliminary activity of this combination in a cohort of patients (pts) with EGFR-mutant NSCLC and MET-positive acquired resistance in the multi-arm, Phase Ib TATTON study (NCT02143466).

      Method:
      Eligible pts were aged ≥18 years (WHO performance status 0/1) with locally advanced or metastatic EGFR-mutant NSCLC who progressed on at least one prior EGFR-TKI with centrally confirmed MET-amplification (fluorescence in-situ hybridisation, MET gene copy ≥5 or MET/CEP7 ratio ≥2). Pts received osimertinib 80 mg QD plus savolitinib 600 mg QD. Primary objective was safety and tolerability; secondary objectives included preliminary assessment of anti-tumour activity and pharmacokinetics.

      Result:
      As of data-cut off (15 April 2017), 45 pts with centrally confirmed MET-amplification (FISH) were enrolled and received treatment, including 25 pts previously treated with a third-generation EGFR-TKI and 20 without prior third-generation EGFR-TKI treatment (T790M negative n=13; T790M positive n=7). At baseline, median age was 58 years (range 38–76), 24 (53%) were female, 36 (80%) were Asian. The most frequent adverse events (AEs) were nausea (n=21, 47%), decreased appetite (n=15, 33%), fatigue (n=13, 29%) vomiting (n=13, 29%), rash (n=11, 24%), myalgia (n=8, 18%), pyrexia (n=7, 16%), ALT/AST increased (n=6, 13%), and WBC decreased (n=6, 13%), consistent with the known safety profiles. Serious AEs were reported in 15 (33%) pts; events reported in >1 patient were pneumonia, dyspnoea, acute kidney injury and pyrexia (all n=2). Four pts died due to AEs, none were considered related to study drugs. At data cut-off, confirmed partial responses were reported in 5/25 (20%) pts previously treated with a third-generation EGFR-TKI; 5/12 (42%) T790M negative pts without prior third-generation EGFR-TKI and 3/7 (43%) T790M positive pts without prior third-generation EGFR‑TKI. Twenty-eight (62%) pts are ongoing treatment. Preliminary steady-state exposures and pharmacokinetic parameters of savolitinib and osimertinib were consistent with historical data.

      Conclusion:
      These findings demonstrate promising safety, tolerability, and preliminary activity of osimertinib plus savolitinib and support further investigation of this combination for the treatment of pts with locally advanced or metastatic EGFR-mutant NSCLC and MET-amplification. Updated data will be presented.
