MINI07.01 - A Randomized Phase II Study of S-1 and Cisplatin vs Vinorelbine and Cisplatin with Concurrent Radiotherapy for Locally Advanced NSCLC: WJOG5008L (ID 544)
16:45 - 16:50 | Author(s): T. Seto
- Abstract
- Presentation
Background:
Cisplatin-based chemotherapy and concurrent radiotherapy is the standard treatments for locally advanced non-small cell lung cancer ( LA-NSCLC). This trial evaluated two experimental regimens of chemotherapy with concurrent radiotherapy.
Methods:
Eligible patients (pts) with unresectable stage III NSCLC, 20 to 74 years of age, and ECOG PS of 0–1 were randomized to either Arm SP, S-1 (40 mg/m[2]/dose per oral, b.i.d, on days 1-14) and cisplatin (60 mg/m[2] on day 1) repeated every 4 weeks or Arm VP, vinorelbine ( 20mg/m[2] on day 1, 8) and cisplatin (80 mg/m[2] on day) repeated every 4 weeks with early concurrent thoracic radiotherapy of 60Gy at 2 Gy per daily fraction. The primary endpoint was overall survival rate at 2-year (2yr-OS). A pick-the-winner design was used to identify the treatment regimen most likely to be superior. The planned sample size was 55 patients per arm, assuming in each arm that the null hypothesis for 2yr- OS was 50% versus an alternative hypothesis for 65% with one-sided alpha of 0.10 and power of 80%. All the radiation treatment plans were reviewed at quality assurance committee meetings. (Study ID: UMIN000002420)
Results:
One hundred eleven patients were registered between Sep 2009 and Sep 2012. Of 108 patients for efficacy analysis, the 2yr-OS was 76% (95% CI, 62-85%) for SP and 69% (95% CI, 54-79%) for VP. The hazard ratio (HR) of death between the two arms was 0.85 (0.48-1.49). The median progression-free survival (PFS) was 14.8 months for SP and 12.3 months for VP with a HR of 0.92 (0.58-1.44). 80% and 48% of pts completed the protocol treatment in SP and VP, respectively. Common grade 3-4 toxicities of both SP and VP were neutropenia 33%, 75%, platelets 9%, 4%, hemoglobin 26%, 28%, febrile neutropenia 9%, 17%, diarrhea 6%, 0% respectively. There were 4 and 5 treatment-related deaths in Arms SP and VP, respectively. The quality assurance committee judged that 74% of radiation treatment plans had no deviation and 24% had a minor deviation.
Conclusion:
Both arms rejected the null hypothesis for 2yr-OS. In this study Arm SP was declared the winner in terms of 2yr-OS, PFS, treatment completion, and toxicity.

MINI37.06 - Randomized Phase II Trial of CODE or Amrubicin Plus Cisplatin Chemotherapy after Chemoradiotherapy for Limited-Disease Small Cell Lung Cancer (ID 1033)
19:00 - 19:05 | Author(s): T. Seto
- Abstract
- Presentation
Background:
Four cycles of etoposide plus cisplatin (EP) concurrently with accelerated hyperfractionation thoracic radiotherapy (AHTRT) is the standard treatment for limited-disease small cell lung cancer (LD-SCLC). The objectives of this study were to evaluate efficacy and toxicities of CODE or amrubicin plus cisplatin (AP) chemotherapy following one cycle of EP and AHTRT in patients with LD-SCLC, and to select the promising arm for subsequent phase III trials.
Methods:
Eligibility criteria included patients with previously untreated LD-SCLC with measurable lesion, ECOG PS of 0-1, and 20-70 years of age. Eligible patients received one cycle of EP (etoposide 100 mg/m[2] on days 1-3 and cisplatin 80mg/m[2] on day 1) plus AHTRT (45Gy/ 30 fractions in 3 weeks). Patients who achieved CR, PR or SD were secondarily registered and randomized to receive either 3 cycles of CODE (cisplatin 25 mg/m[2] on days 1 and 8, doxorubicin 40 mg/m[2] on day 1, etoposide 80 mg/m[2] on days 1-3, and vincristine 1 mg/m[2] on 8 every 2 weeks) or 3 cycles of AP (amrubicin 40 mg/m[2] on days 1-3 and cisplatin 60 mg/m[2] on day 1 every 3 weeks). G-CSF was administered on the days when chemotherapy was not administered in CODE, or on day 5 to the day when a neutrophil count exceeded 5,000/µL in AP. Patients with CR after CODE or AP received prophylactic cranial irradiation. The primary endpoint was the one-year progression-free survival (PFS) after the second registration. Tumor responses were assessed with RECIST version 1.1 by the central review committee. A better regimen for phase III trial is determined with a randomized phase II selection design. The sample size was 72 randomized patients to detect >= 10% difference in one-year PFS with a probability of 80%.
Results:
From May 2011 to Jan 2014, 85 patients from 28 institutions were registered. After the induction EP plus AHTRT, 75 patients were randomized to CODE (n=39) or AP (n=36). Patient demographics were well balanced between the arms. One patient did not receive CODE and 34 (89%) of the 38 patients received 3 cycles of CODE, whereas 33 (92%) of the 36 patients received 3 cycles of AP. Grade 4 neutropenia, anemia and thrombocytopenia were observed in 47%, 21% and 16% of patients in CODE, and in 78%, 6% and 17% of patients in AP, respectively. Grade 3 non-hematological toxicities with the incidence of 5% or higher included febrile neutropenia (16%), hyponatremia (8%), hypokalemia (5%), fatigue (5%), and anorexia (5%) in CODE, and febrile neutropenia (42%), nausea (11%), anorexia (11%), fatigue (8%), esophagitis (6%) in AP. CR and PR were noted in 13 and 25 patients in CODE, and in 10 and 24 patients in AP, respectively. The median overall survival in the 74 patients was 42.8 months. The one-year PFS (95% CI) was 41.0 (25.7 - 55.8) % in CODE and 54.3 (36.6 - 69.0) % in AP.
Conclusion:
The one-year PFS seemed better in AP than in CODE. AP arm is considered to be the test regimen for the subsequent phase III trial.

ORAL17.03 - Biomarkers for Efficacy in JO25567 Study Evaluating Erlotinib plus Bevacizumab versus Erlotinib in Advanced NSCLC with EGFR Mutation (ID 306)
11:07 - 11:18 | Author(s): T. Seto
- Abstract
- Presentation
Background:
Bevacizumab (B), an anti-vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) monoclonal antibody has been proven to provide additional efficacy benefit in combination with platinum-based chemotherapy for 1[st] line therapy of non-squamous non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). In JO25567 study, we observed that bevacizumab in combination with epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) tyrosine kinase inhibitor, erlotinib (E) also provided additional 6.3 months median progression free survival (PFS) in advanced EGFR mutation-positive non-squamous NSCLC. To try to understand this additional effect of bevacizumab, we investigated the predictive biomarkers related to angiogenesis comprehensively in JO25567 study. Clnical trials registry number: JapicCTI-111390
Methods:
We evaluated the biomarkers in blood and tissue samples. All samples were collected before E+B or E treatment in JO25567 study. Angiogenesis related ligands and soluble receptors in serum were analyzed by multiplex, bead-based suspension array. Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) or variable number of tandem repeats (VNTR) of angiogenesis related genes were analyzed by direct sequencing or electrophoresis after PCR for blood sample. VEGF-A concentration in plasma were analyzed by Immunological Multi-Parametric Chip Technique (IMPACT) assay. Messenger RNA of genes related to angiogenesis in tumor tissue were quantitated by multiplex TOF-mass spectrometry (MassARRAY). Immunohistochemistry of neuropilin and exploratory proteomics analysis were planned for surgically resected tumor tissues. PFS were used as an efficacy variable of prediction. Multivariate Fractional Polynomial (MFP) and Subpopulation Treatment Effect Pattern Plot (STEPP) were used for biomarker screening.
Results:
One hundred fifty-two patients were treated with E+B or E in JO25567 study. We analyzed 26 ligands or soluble receptors in 134 serum samples. Follistatin and leptin were identified as potential biomarkers by MFP. The interaction p-value with adjustment of covariates for biomarker and efficacy was 0.0168 for follistatin and 0.0049 for leptin. STEPP suggested that high follistatin related to limited bevacizumab efficacy and low leptin related to higher bevacizumab efficacy. SNPs could be analyzed in 135 blood samples. In 12 SNPs and 1 VNTR of 8 genes, no gene related to bevacizumab efficacy. Plasma samples were collected from 105 patients. Median VEGF-A concentration of E+B group and E group were 18.0 pg/mL and 18.8 pg/mL respectively and was one sixth or more lower than previously reported breast and gastric cancers. Hazard ratio of E+B comparing with E for was 0.23 (95% CI: 0.09-0.60) for low plasma VEGF and was 0.56 (95% CI: 0.26-1.25) for high plasma VEGF. This trend was not consistent with previously reported studies. We analyzed mRNA expression from 24 surgical resected tumors and no predictive value was observed. Because of limited number of surgically resected tumors obtained, we couldn’t proceed exploratory proteomics analysis nor evaluate predictive value of neuropilin expression.
Conclusion:
In this comprehensive predictive biomarker analysis, follistatin and leptin in blood were identified as potential biomarker candidates for E+B therapy.

P1.01-049 - Feasibility of Cisplatin plus Etoposide for Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer Associated with Interstitial Lung Disease on Chest Computed Tomography (ID 541)
09:30 - 09:30 | Author(s): T. Seto
- Abstract
Background:
Despite the recent remarkable progress in chemotherapy (CTx) regimens, the application of CTx for non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) associated with interstitial lung disease (ILD) remains challenging because of the possibility of acute deterioration of the underlying ILD, which can lead to severe respiratory insufficiency, thus decreasing the life expectancy of the patient. To date, no acceptable CTx regimen for patients with ILD has been established. We herein assessed our series of non-small cell lung cancer patients with ILD treated with cisplatin and etoposide (PE).
Methods:
Unresectable NSCLC patients with ILD detected on chest computed tomography (CT) who received PE at our department between December 2006 and December 2013 were retrospectively reviewed. ILD was defined as interstitial opacity on CT, as confirmed by an independent radiologist. Overall survival (OS) was defined as the time from the start date of any treatment to the date of death from any cause. Progression-free survival (PFS) was defined as the time from the start date of PE to disease progression or cancer-related death.
Results:
A total of 32 NSCLC patients with ILD were evaluated. There were 31 males and one female, with a median age of 66 (53-79) years. The ECOG performance status was 0/1/2 in 17/13/2 patients. Seventeen patients had adenocarcinoma, six patients had squamous cell carcinoma and nine patients had NSCLC. Three patients experienced post-surgical recurrence. The clinical stage was IIB/IIIA/IIIB//IV in 2/5/8/17 patients. The subtypes of ILD classified according to the CT appearance were the usual interstitial pneumonia pattern in 22 patients and a non-specific interstitial pneumonia pattern and previous drug-induced pneumonia in five patients each. Oral steroids were administered concomitant with CTx in two patients. Twenty-four patients received PE as the first-line CTx, while the other eight patients received PE after more than two regimens of CTx. Grade 3/4 hematological toxicity of leukopenia was noted in 15 (46.9%) patients, neutropenia was observed in 24 (75.0%) patients, thrombocytopenia occurred in four (12.5%) patients and anemia was detected in six (18.8%) patients. Grade 3 febrile neutropenia was recorded in six (19.4%) patients, grade 3 and 4 acute myocardial infarction occurred in one patient each and grade 3 cerebral infarction occurred in one patient. Two patients experienced grade 2 worsening of ILD and successfully recovered. The response rate was PR/SD/PD in 10/19/2 patients, and one patient could not be evaluated because of an adverse event. The median PFS was 3.9 months, the one-year PFS was 12.8% and the two-year PFS was 4.3%. Additionally, the median OS for all patients was 11.2 months, the one-year OS was 46.2% and the two-year OS was 14.2%.
Conclusion:
PE treatment for unresectable NSCLC associated with ILD was demonstrated to be relatively safe in our series, with an acceptable tumor response and OS. However, careful patient selection and management during CTx are required. The limitation of the current analysis is its retrospective nature and the fact that there was a single arm of CTx therapy. Hence, future prospective comparisons of other CTx regimens are warranted.

P3.01-020 - Updated Data from JP28927 Study of Alectinib in ALK+ NSCLC Patients with or without History of ALK Inhibitor Treatment (ID 346)
09:30 - 09:30 | Author(s): T. Seto
- Abstract
Background:
Alectinib, a next generation ALK inhibitor, was granted approval in Japan 2014, since it showed good efficacy and tolerability in ALK+ NSCLC patients without previous ALK inhibitor treatment in Phase I/II study (AF-001JP). We also reported its promising response and good tolerability for crizotinib pre-treated patients in JP28927 study (ESMO 2014). This report describes the update of efficacy and safety result in JP28927 study.
Methods:
Patients (with/without prior ALK inhibitor treatment) who had ALK+ NSCLC were enrolled in JP28927. Patients received alectinib (300mg) twice daily; treatment was continued until the investigator determined lack of clinical benefit.
Results:
Thirty-five patients were enrolled into JP28927 study. Median follow-up duration was 400 days (35-457 days). The median progression free survival (PFS) of 35 patients was 13.9 months (95%CI: 11.1- NR). Among 30 patients with the target lesions at base line, the overall response rate (ORR) was 70% (95%CI: 50.6-85.3) with rapid response (the median time to response was 1.2 months [95%CI: 1.1-2.1]). Twenty-three out of 35 patients had been confirmed the progressive disease with crizotinib treatment. Their median PFS was 12.9 months (95%CI: 3.9-NR). Twenty out of 23 patients had the target lesions at base line. ORR was 65% (95%CI: 40.8-84.6) and the median time to response was 1.2 months (95%CI: 1.1-1.3). The treatment-related adverse events (AEs) observed in more than 10% of the patients were constipation (31.4%), dysgeusia (25.7%), WBC count decreased (22.9%), neutrophil count decreased (22.9%), vomiting (14.3%), rash (14.3%), blood bilirubin increased (14.3%) and AST increase (14.3%). Treatment-related Grade 3 AEs, i.e. pulmonary thrombosis, lymphocyte count decrease, hypophosphatemia, were observed in 3 patients. No treatment-related Grade 4 or 5 AEs were observed.
Conclusion:
The updated results in JP28927 study once again endorsed our previous reports which had indicated alectinib’s promising response even for ALK+NSCLC patients who failed to crizotinib treatment.

P3.07-005 - Maintenance Irinotecan Therapy in Extensive Disease Small Cell Lung Cancer: A Feasibility Study (ID 607)
09:30 - 09:30 | Author(s): T. Seto
- Abstract
Background:
We performed a feasibility study of maintenance irinotecan therapy in patients with extensive disease small cell lung cancer (ED-SCLC) who responded to the induction irinotecan plus cisplatin (IP) therapy.
Methods:
The eligibility criteria included pts with ED-SCLC who responded to four cycles of induction IP therapy, ECOG performance status (PS) of 0 to 1, age of 20 to 70 years and adequate organ functions. Pts received irinotecan monotherapy at 60 mg/m2 on days 1, 8 and 15 of a 28-day cycles until disease progression. The primary endpoint was the proportion of treatment success (TS) at 6 months. Using a binomial design, a lower activity level (p0) of 0.25 and a target activity level (p1) of 0.50, the preplanned accrual of 28 patients was sufficient (alpha, 0.10 and power, 0.90).
Results:
Between August 2012 and August 2013, 22 pts were enrolled. However, accrual was discontinued because of the three grade 3 pneumonitis events (3 of 22 patients, 13.6%). Patient characteristics of the 22 eligible pts were as follows; the median age was 65 (54-70) years; 12 pts had a PS of 0, and 16 pts were male. The median number of cycles delivered was four (range, 1–31). Four of 22 (18.2%) patients achieved TS at 6 months. Median progression free survival and overall survival from the start of the maintenance irinotecan therapy were 3.2 months and 15.9 months, respectively. Grade ≥3 toxicities included neutropenia (4.5%), hyponatremia (4.5%), pneumonitis (13.6%) and cholangitis (4.5%). No treatment-related deaths occurred. Figure 1
Conclusion:
This trial was early terminated due to the unexpected toxicity, but maintenance irinotecan therapy was still active for a subset of ED-SCLC.
