MINI16.08 - AZD9291 in Pre-Treated T790M Positive Advanced NSCLC: AURA2 Phase II Study (ID 1406)

- Presentation
Background:
The epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) T790M mutation is found in about half of patients who have developed resistance to EGFR-tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs), gefitinib or erlotinib. AZD9291 is an oral, potent, irreversible EGFR-TKI selective for both EGFR-sensitizing (EGFRm) and T790M resistance mutations. In the Phase I AURA study, AZD9291 80 mg (dose selected for further evaluation) was found to be clinically active, with an acceptable tolerability profile. This ongoing AURA2 Phase II study (NCT02094261) investigates the efficacy and safety of AZD9291 80 mg once daily after previous EGFR-TKI treatment in patients with EGFRm and T790M positive advanced NSCLC.
Methods:
AURA2 (NCT02094261) is a global, open-label, single-arm Phase II study. To be eligible, all patients had a mandatory tumor sample taken after disease progression on the most recent line of therapy, for confirmation of T790M positive status by central laboratory testing using the cobas™ EGFR Mutation Test. Further inclusion criteria included measurable disease, World Health Organization performance status (WHO PS) 0 or 1, and acceptable organ function; stable brain metastases were allowed. Patients receive AZD9291 at 80 mg once daily until disease progression. The primary endpoint was objective response rate (ORR) according to RECIST 1.1 (assessed by independent central review, ICR). Secondary objectives included disease control rate (DCR), duration of response (DoR), progression-free survival (PFS), and safety. Planned enrollment was 175 patients to give an ORR with 95% confidence interval (CI) within ±8%. The data cut-off was January 9, 2015.
Results:
Recruitment is complete and 210 patients were enrolled; 12 patients did not have measurable disease at baseline by ICR and are excluded from the evaluable-for-response set. By central testing, in addition to T790M, patients had background EGFR mutation: Ex19del, 65%; L858R, 32%; other, 3%. Baseline characteristics: median age, 64 years; female, 70%; WHO PS 0/1, 40%/60%; Asian, 63%; second-/≥third-line, 32%/68%. Median treatment exposure was 4.0 months and 183 patients remain on treatment at the data cut-off. ORR by ICR was 64% (127/198; 95% CI 57, 71) and DCR was 90% (95% CI 85, 94). Investigator-assessed ORR was 64% (135/210; 95% CI 57, 71). Median DoR and median PFS have not been reached (maturity 6% and 20%, respectively). The estimated proportion of patients who are alive and progression free is 82% and 70% at 3 and 6 months, respectively. The most common all-causality adverse events (AEs) were diarrhea, 34% (1% Gr≥3) and grouped rash terms 40% (0.5% Gr≥3); 38 (18%) patients experienced Gr≥3 AEs. Interstitial lung disease grouped terms were reported in four (1.9%) patients, one of which was fatal (0.5%) and considered possibly causally related to AZD9291 by the investigator. Eight patients (4%) discontinued treatment due to an AE. Updated results from a later data cut-off will be available for presentation.
Conclusion:
AZD9291 80 mg once daily demonstrates clinical activity and manageable tolerability in patients with EGFRm, T790M mutation positive advanced NSCLC that has progressed on or after EGFR‑TKI treatment. AZD9291 is being investigated in the randomized AURA3 Phase III study (NCT02151981) in comparison with platinum-based doublet chemotherapy.
