OA05.03 - Single-Agent Rovalpituzumab Tesirine, a Delta-Like Protein 3 (DLL3)-Targeted Antibody-Drug Conjugate (ADC), in Small-Cell Lung Cancer (SCLC) (ID 4648)
14:40 - 14:50 | Author(s): B.S. Glisson
- Abstract
- Presentation
Background:
SCLC is one of the most deadly malignancies. Rovalpituzumab tesirine (SC16LD6.5, Rova-T) is a first-in-class ADC directed against DLL3, a novel target identified in tumor initiating cells and expressed in over 80% of SCLC cases.
Methods:
Seventy-four patients with progressive SCLC after at least one previous systemic therapy were enrolled in a first-in-human study (NCT01901653), irrespective of DLL3 expression, including 68 at active doses of 0.2-0.4 mg/kg administered intravenously every 3 or 6 weeks. Available archived tumor tissue (n=48) was assessed retrospectively by immunohistochemistry for DLL3.
Results:
Among 60 evaluable subjects, active dose levels resulted in a confirmed objective response rate (ORR) of 18% and a confirmed clinical benefit rate (CBR; stable disease or better) of 68%. Among 26 evaluable subjects with DLL3 expression in at least 50% of tumor cells (DLL3-high), confirmed ORR and CBR were 39% and 89%, respectively. Median duration of response was 5.6 months. One-year survival rates among all and DLL3-high subjects were 18% and 32%, respectively. Among primary sensitive relapse patients, confirmed ORR and CBR among all subjects were 24% (8/33) and 67% (22/33); and among DLL3-high subjects were 53% (8/15) and 100% (15/15), with one-year survival rates of 17% and 33%, respectively. Among primary resistant/refractory relapse patients, confirmed ORR and CBR among all subjects were 12% (3/25) and 72% (18/25); and among DLL3-high subjects were 18% (2/11) and 73% (8/11), with one-year survival rates of 21% and 29%, respectively. The most common grade 3 or higher toxicities included thrombocytopenia (12%), serosal effusions (11%), and skin reactions (8%). ADC pharmacokinetics were linear with a terminal half-life of 10 - 14 days and anti-therapeutic antibodies did not develop
Conclusion:
Rovalpituzumab tesirine demonstrates encouraging single-agent anti-tumor activity with a manageable safety profile, including among patients with disease resistant or refractory to primary chemotherapy. Further development of rovalpituzumab tesirine in SCLC is warranted.

P1.07-024 - EGFR Mutations in Small Cell Lung Cancer (SCLC): Genetic Heterogeneity and Prognostic Impact (ID 4154)
14:30 - 14:30 | Author(s): B.S. Glisson
- Abstract
Background:
EGFR mutations in SCLC were first reported in cases of lung adenocarcinoma which transformed to SCLC after TKI treatment and such mutation was speculated to be a TKI resistance mechanism. Recently case reports and high throughput sequencing in a small number of samples suggested that EGFR mutations do exist in de novo SCLC. But the genetic and clinical characteristics have not been studied in large number of samples. This study aims to conduct a large scale survey of the EGFR mutations among Chinese SCLC patients, and to analyze the genetic and clinical characteristics of such mutations.
Methods:
Mutation status in exon 18-21 of EGFR was assessed by dideoxy-sequencing in 565 SCLC tumors treated in Zhejiang Cancer Hospital, Hangzhou, China from 2009 to 2014 and correlated with clinical parameters. Chi-square test were used to show the correlation of clinic variables with EGFR mutation. Survival analysis was performed using the Kaplan-Meier method.
Results:
40 instances of EGFR mutation are detected in 565 clinical samples. The mutation rate is 7.1%. Besides classic mutations E19 deletion（n=3）and E21 L858R(n=3), the rest of the mutations detected are atypical including E18 (G719D/S, G696R, S695N/D, N700D, I715F, L688F, P694L), E19(K757N, A755V, V742I, E736K, N756Y, E749K, P753L, A755T), E20 (T790M, H773R, S768R/N, R776H/C, G796D, D807N, R803W/Q, Y813C, G810S, A763T, G779D, Q791R, C781Y, N771S), E21(L858V, G874R, K867E). Among the EGFR mutation positive patients, 27.5% (11/40) are non-smokers, higher than the EGFR negative group (16.4%, 86/525). But it is not statistically significant (p=0.129). And EGFR mutation is not correlated with sex (female vs male), age (≥65y vs <65y) or clinical stages (limited stage vs extensive stage). After matching the treatment history of the EGFR mutation positive and negative patients (excluding patients who were not treated ,only treated by traditional Chinese medicine or one cycle chemotherapy or biological therapy , treatment unkown ), univariate analysis shows that the EGFR mutation positive patients have better overall survival than the EGFR negative group, with medium OS of 24.433m±4.864m vs 14.00m±0.838m respectively (p=0.018). COX regression analysis suggests that limited stage (HR=2.610), <65 years (HR=1.476) and EGFR mutation (HR=0.587, p=0. 0.039) were independently predictive of better OS.
Conclusion:
Among the de novo SCLC patients diagnosed, there exists a group harboring EGFR mutations, most of which are non-classic mutations. After matching the treatment history of patients, analysis reveals that EGFR mutations are predictive of better OS.
