P2.01-099 - nab-Paclitaxel as Maintenance Therapy in Patients with Squamous Cell NSCLC (ABOUND.sqm) (ID 3122)
09:30 - 09:30 | Author(s): C. Gridelli
- Abstract
Background:
Patients with squamous cell (SCC) non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) may be at risk of poorer outcomes and have fewer treatment options than those with other histologies. Furthermore, no randomized studies have demonstrated the benefit of maintenance therapy in these patients. In a phase III trial, first-line treatment with nab-paclitaxel plus carboplatin (nab-P/C) demonstrated a 68% improvement in the overall response rate (ORR; 41% vs 24%; P < 0.001) and a trend toward improved overall survival (OS; median, 10.7 vs 9.5 months; HR 0.890; P = 0.310) compared with solvent-based paclitaxel plus C in a subset of patients with advanced SCC NSCLC (Socinski et al. Ann Oncol. 2013;24:2390-2396). An exploratory analysis of the phase III trial demonstrated that therapy with nab-P/C beyond 4 cycles of first-line treatment was effective in the subset of patients with SCC NSCLC who did not progress (from the time of randomization, median progression-free survival [PFS] and OS were 6.8 and 13.8 months, respectively), and no new safety signals were noted (Socinski et al. IASLC 2013 [abstract 3438]). In the open-label, multicenter phase III ABOUND.sqm trial, the efficacy and safety of nab-P maintenance therapy after nab-P/C induction therapy will be evaluated in patients with advanced SCC NSCLC.
Methods:
During the induction part of the study, approximately 540 patients will be treated with 4 cycles of nab-P 100 mg/m[2] intravenously (IV; 30-minute infusion) on days 1, 8, and 15 plus IV C AUC 6 on day 1 every 21 days. Patients with a complete response (CR), a partial response (PR), or stable disease (SD) will be eligible for maintenance. In the maintenance part of the study, approximately 260 patients will be randomized 2:1 to nab-P 100 mg/m[2] on days 1 and 8 every 21 days plus best supportive care (BSC) or BSC alone until disease progression. Patients will be stratified by disease stage (IIIB vs IV), response to induction therapy (CR/PR vs SD), and ECOG performance status at the end of induction (0 vs 1). Key eligibility criteria include histologically or cytologically confirmed stage IIIB/IV SCC NSCLC, no prior chemotherapy for metastatic disease, ECOG performance status ≤ 1, adequate organ function, no active brain metastases, and preexisting peripheral neuropathy grade < 2.

P3.01-058 - <em>nab</em>-Paclitaxel + Carboplatin in Advanced Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer NSCLC: Dose Modification Analysis (ID 1570)
09:30 - 09:30 | Author(s): C. Gridelli
- Abstract
Background:
Chemotherapy dose modifications may impact clinical outcomes in patients with cancer. In a phase III trial, first-line treatment of patients with advanced NSCLC with nab-paclitaxel plus carboplatin (nab-P/C) significantly improved the overall response rate (ORR; primary endpoint) compared with solvent-based paclitaxel plus C (sb-P/C; 33% vs 25%; P = 0.005; Socinski et al. J Clin Oncol. 2012;30:2055-2062). This exploratory analysis examined the correlation between patients receiving protocol-specified dose modifications and clinical outcomes in the phase III trial.
Methods:
Patients with histologically or cytologically confirmed stage IIIB/IV NSCLC and no prior chemotherapy for metastatic disease received either nab-P 100 mg/m[2] on days 1, 8, and 15 or sb-P 200 mg/m[2] on day 1, both in combination with C AUC 6 on day 1, every 21 days (randomized 1:1). ORR and progression-free survival (PFS) were assessed by blinded, centralized review. P values for ORR were based on the chi-square test, and those for overall survival (OS) and PFS were based on the log-rank test. Patients who discontinued treatment before cycle 3 or remained on treatment after 6 months were excluded from this analysis unless otherwise specified.
Results:
Dose modification and clinical outcomes for patients treated for ≥ 3 cycles but ≤ 6 months are shown in the Table. In the nab-P/C arm, 268 of 310 patients (86%) who were treated for ≥ 3 cycles and ≤ 6 months had a dose modification compared with 200 of 319 (63%) in the sb-P/C arm. In the nab-P/C cohort, ORR and PFS were significantly higher in patients who received a dose modification vs those who did not (Table), possibly due to better tolerability and longer treatment duration. In the sb-P/C arm, there were no differences in efficacy outcomes between either group. As predicted, patients with a lower numerical incidence of toxicity were those that did not require dose modifications.
Conclusion:
This exploratory analysis suggested that, in this patient subset, protocol-specified dose modifications did not negatively impact the primary endpoint of ORR and in fact resulted in a greater ORR for those receiving nab-P/C. Figure 1
