ORAL04.05 - Results Ph III Trial Customized Adjuvant CT after Resection of NSCLC with Lymph Node Metastases SCAT: A Spanish Lung Cancer Group Trial (ID 2983)
11:28 - 11:39 | Author(s): I. Barneto
- Abstract
- Presentation
Background:
Postop platinum-based CT improves outcomes in completely resected NSCLC with nodal involvement (St II-IIIA) but compliance and outcomes remain limited. Analysis of expression of genes involved in DNA repair could be used to individualize optimal CT. BRCA1 is primarily involved in the repair of double strand DNA breaks and functions as a differential regulator of response to cisplatin (Cis) and antimicrotubule agents. BRCA1 defficiency can enhance Cis resistance. Loss of BRCA1 function is associated to sensitivity to DNA-damaging CT and may also be associated with resistance to spindle poisons
Methods:
Randomized phase III multicenter trial. After surgery patients (p) with St II and III NCSLC were random 1:3 to control arm (3 cycles Cis-Docetaxel) or to experimental arm with treatment assigned according BRCA1 expression levels (low levels: Cis-Gemcitabine; intermediate levels: Cis-Doc; high levels: Docetaxel alone). Stratifification factors: N1 vs N2; age < or > 65 y; non-Squamous vs Squamous (Sq) histology; lobectomy vs pneumonectomy). Planned PORT in N2. Primary end-point OS. Secondary end-points DFS, toxicity profile (CTCAE v 3.0) /compliance, recurrence pattern. Statistical hypothesis: increase 20% 5y survival rate control group (45%)
Results:
From June/2007 to May/2013, a total of 591 p were screened and 500 of them were randomized in the study, 108 in control arm, 392 in experimental arm. In experimental arm 110 p received Cis-Gem, 127 Cis-Doc and 110 Doc alone. There were no significant differences between arm for known prognostic factors: Median age 64 y; 79% males, 21% females; 43% Sq, 49% Adenoca, 8% others; 57% former smokers, 32% current smokers, 11% never smokers; pneumonectomy 26%; N1 58%, N2 48%. Median tumor size 4.4 cm (0.8-15.5 cm). Median mRNA BRCA1 levels 15.78 (0.73-132). Mean BRCA1 levels 6.95 in Adenoca vs 20.29 in Sq (p<0.001). P with Sq histology showed a longer DFS (HR 0.73; p=0.05) but without differences in OR (HR 1) Median follow-up 28 months (0-79 m), with a cut-off of March 15[th] 2015, median survival has not reached both arms and no significant differences have been seen for OS with hazard ratio (HR) 0.866 (p=0.45) or DFS with HR 1. In experimental group HR for OS was 0.842 (NS) comparing low with high-BRCA1 levels. In p with high-BRCA1 levels control treatment (Cis-Doc) was superior to experimental (Doc) with HR 1.24 (NS).In non-Sq histology experimental treatment was superior to control with HR 0.75. For p receiving all planned treatment HR is 0.63 with p = 0.043 compared with p not able to complete treatment.
Conclusion:
Overall survival data are still immature because median survival is not reached with a median f-u 28 m for this N+ population. At this time analysis BRCA1 based adjuvant CT does not improve overall OS. In p with high BRCA1 levels Doc alone is inferior to Cis-Doc. BRCA-1 levels are higher in Sq and in non-Sq histology a trend to better survival in experimental arm was found. Full dose of planned treatment confers a survival advantage, however, longer follow-up is still warranted.

P1.08-015 - Malignant Pleural Mesothelioma: Observational and Retrospective Analysis of Spanish Database (BEMME). The Spanish Lung Cancer Group (SLCG) (ID 2355)
09:30 - 09:30 | Author(s): I. Barneto
- Abstract
Background:
Malignant Pleural Mesothelioma (MPM) is a rare but aggressive malignancy of the pleura, with a strong causal link to asbestos exposure. Although in Spain asbestos was banned in 2002, it is estimated that occupationally related deaths due to MPM will continue to occur until 2040. BEMME (Base Epidemiológica Mesotelioma Maligno en España) is an observational and retrospective study sponsored by the Spanish Lung Cancer Group that aimed to characterize the patient’s and tumour’s features as well as the treatment modalities of patients diagnosed with mesothelioma in Spain.
Methods:
Clinical records of patients with malignant pleural and peritoneal mesothelioma were retrospectively reviewed to collect epidemiological data, diagnostic tests, treatment modalities and survival data into an electronic and anonymous database. Thirty-five Spanish hospitals participated in the project and 570 mesothelioma patients were included in the BEMME database. Here we present a descriptive analysis of MPM patients based upon these data.
Results:
From January 2008 to December 2013, 538 patients (p) had MPM. Most patients were males (77%) and 74% of patients were ≥ 60 years (60-70y: 33%, >70y: 41%). Most patients (49%) had a performance status 1 at diagnosis. Only 32% of patients were recorded as positive for asbestos exposure and 77% of patients were never-smokers. Dyspnoea (35%) and thoracic pain (26%) were reported as the most frequent symptoms at diagnosis. Epithelioid was the most frequent histological subtype (63%), followed by sarcomatoid (12%), biphasic (8%) and not specified (17%). Disease stages at diagnosis were: stage I, 7%; stage II, 9%; stage III, 17%; stage IV, 45%; not specified, 22%. Surgery was performed in 41p: extrapleural neumonectomy 16p, extended pleurectomy 15p and partial pleurectomy 10p. Palliative pleurodesis was performed in 22% of patients. A total of 70% of patients received chemotherapy (55% palliative, 11 neoadjuvant and 6% adjuvant). The median overall survival (OS) for all patients was 13.2 months (95% CI 12.2 – 15.2). There were no statistically significant differences in OS according to age, gender and asbestos exposure. In the univariate analysis, higher stage (III-IV vs. I-II, p=0.0003) and non-epithelioid subtype (non-epithelioid vs. epithelioid, p=0.00001) were significantly associated with shorter OS.
Conclusion:
In Spain, most MPM patients are diagnosed at advanced stages and are treated with palliative modalities: mainly chemotherapy and pleurodesis. Stage and histologic subtype were prognostic factors for survival. BEMME database is a helpful tool to describe the therapeutic strategies employed in MPM patients in Spain.
