MA06.09 - Efficacy RENO Study Results of Oral Vinorelbine or Etoposide with Cisplatin & Chemo-Radiation in Stage III NSCLC. SLCG 10/02 (ID 4238)
17:00 - 17:06 | Author(s): T. Morán
- Abstract
- Presentation
Background:
This study aims to compare efficacy and safety of two widely used combinations of cisplatin (P) in this setting: as etoposide (E) and vinorelbine. This last, in its oral formulation (oV) which has achieved comparable results as the IV formulation and patients (pts) prefer it.
Methods:
Pts between 18-75years, with histologically proven untreated and unresectable locally-advanced NSCLC (LA-NSCLC), adequate respiratory function, V20≤35% and ECOG-PS 0-1, were randomized 1:1 to oV-P arm: 2 induction cycles (cy) of oV-P followed by 2 cy more with RT; or to E-P arm: 2 cy of E-P concomitants to RT. Both arms with a total radiation dose of 66Gy administered 2 Gys daily. Primary endpoint was progression free survival (PFS) by RECIST 1.1. Secondary endpoints: overall response rate (ORR), overall survival (OS) and safety. With α-error of 0.05 (one-tailed test) and 0.1 β-error, median PFS unacceptable for the oV-P arm of 10 months (m) (p0) and a very acceptable of 15 m (p1), 122 eligible pts were required.
Results:
140 pts from 23 institutions of SLCG were randomized between 08/2011-12/2014. 134 pts were treated (66 in oV-P and 68 in E-P arms). Results based on this 134 pts are presented. Median age 62 years [39-76]; PS 0/1, 45%/55%; current smoker 51%; squamous cell 51%; stage IIIB 54%. 244 and 131 cy were given in the oV-P and E-P arms, respectively. All irradiated pts in oV-P arm received at least 60Gy, 7 pts in the E-P arm received less than 60Gy (4 due to toxicity). 1 pt (1.5%) in oV-P arm and 12 pts (17.6%) in E-P arm presented esophagitis G3/4 (p=0.002). 121 confirmed eligibility for efficacy analysis. ORR were 39 (64%) and 40 pts (67%) in the oV-P and E-P arms, respectively (p=0.889). After 16 m [1-43] of follow-up, 66% pts progressed and 43% pts died. Median PFS is 11.4 m (IC95%; 6-17) in oV-P arm and 11.8 m (IC95%; 7-16) in E-P arm (p=0.374).
Conclusion:
Both regimens achieve similar efficacy however oV-P has less toxicity, especially esophagitis G3/4. Further follow-up is needed for the survival analysis.

P3.02b-014 - Monitoring of T790M Mutation in Serum for Prediction of Response to Third Generation Inhibitors (ID 4097)
14:30 - 14:30 | Author(s): T. Morán
- Abstract
Background:
The emergence of T790M mutation (T790M) represents the main mechanism of acquired resistance (AR) to 1[st] and 2[nd] generation tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) in EGFR mutant patients (p). Recently, 3[rd] generation inhibitors (T790Mi) have demonstrated activity in EGFR mutant (mu) patients with AR to TKIs harboring T790M. Serum and plasma have been used as an alternative to tissue to detect both sensitizing EGFRmu and T790M. We evaluated if (1) T790M could be monitored along T790Mi therapy in p with baseline T790M in serum, (2) T790M loss could be correlated to clinical and radiographic response, and (3) T790M disappears soon in rapid responders.
Methods:
10 p out of a total of 15 T790M+p treated with T790Mi were selected according the baseline T790M+ in serum. Baseline characteristics, data on changes in T790M in serum; and radiographic and symptom changes along T790Mi therapy were collected. T790M in serum was detected using a PNA-locked nucleic PCR clamp-based technique. T790M was evaluated at baseline and at certain times after T790Mi initiation.
Results:
80% of the p were female and never smoker; 100% were adenocarcinoma, Caucasian, del19, and were treated with previous TKI, with a median (m) time to treatment failure of 11.25 months (mo) [range (r)1-19 mo]. P received 2 previous treatments (r1-6), 40% had a rebiopsy for T790M evaluation, had 3 metastatic sites (r1-6), and had a PS 1 in 70% of the cases. 5 p were evaluable for response with 2 SD and 3 PR as best response (BR) in the 1[st ]evaluation. 7 out of 9 p evaluable for clinical response, experienced an improvement in baseline symptoms as soon as 3 weeks (w) after starting T790Mi, only 1 p experienced an increase in pain, but not related to bone M1. T790M was lost in 80% of the p and it was not detected in serum at 3 or 6 w after the T790Mi initiation in 2 out of 4 and 4 out of 7 evaluable p, respectively.
Conclusion:
T790M detection can be lost early along T790Mi treatment. The decrease in symptom burden is seen in p with loss of T790M. PR and SD represent the BR in p with loss of T790M. The loss of T790M in the serum may be a marker of symptomatic and radiographic response to T790Mi. Future evaluation would demonstrate if the reappearance of T790M mutation in serum could be a marker of resistance to T790Mi.

P3.02b-047 - Co-Activation of STAT3 and YAP1 Signaling Pathways Limits EGFR Inhibitor Response in Lung Cancer (ID 4168)
14:30 - 14:30 | Author(s): T. Morán
- Abstract
Background:
EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) induce early activation of several signaling pathways. Interleukin-6 (IL-6) and signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3) hyper-activation occur following EGFR TKI therapy in EGFR-mutant NSCLC cells. We explored the relevance of co-targeting EGFR, STAT3 and Src-YES-associated protein 1 (YAP1) signaling in EGFR-mutant NSCLC.
Methods:
We combined in vitro and in vivo approaches to explore whether concomitant activation of STAT3 and Src-YAP1 can limit the effectiveness of EGFR TKIs in EGFR-mutant NSCLC cells and xenograft models. In two cohorts of EGFR-mutant NSCLC patients, we examined messenger RNA (mRNA) gene expression within signaling pathways, leading to EGFR TKI resistance.
Results:
Gefitinib suppressed EGFR, ERK1/2 and AKT phosphorylation but increased STAT3 phosphorylation (pSTAT3-Tyr705). In EGFR mutant cells, gefitinib plus TPCA-1 (STAT3 inhibitor) abolished pSTAT3-Tyr705 but not the YAP1 phosphorylation on tyrosine 357 by Src family kinases (SFKs). The triple combination of gefitinib, TPCA-1 and AZD0530 (SFK inhibitor) ablated both STAT3 and YAP1 phosphorylation and was highly synergistic, according to the combination index. In two EGFR mutant xenograft mouse models, the triple combination of gefitinib, TPCA-1 and AZD0530 markedly and safely suppressed tumor growth. High levels of STAT3 or YAP1 mRNA expression were associated with worse outcome to EGFR TKI in 64 EGFR-mutant NSCLC patients. Median progression-free survival (PFS) was 9.6 (95%CI, 5.9-14.1) and 18.4 months (95%CI, 8.8-30.2) for patients with high and low STAT3 mRNA, respectively (p<0.001), (HR for disease progression, 3.02; 95% CI, 1.54-5.93; p=0.0013). Median PFS was 9.6 (95%CI, 7.7-15.2) and 23.4 months (95%CI, 13.0-28.1) for patients with high and low YAP1 mRNA, respectively (p=0.005), (HR for disease progression, 2.57; 95%CI, 1.30-5.09; p=0.0067). The results were similar in the validation cohort of 55 EGFR-mutant NSCLC patients treated with first-line EGFR TKI in the Department of Oncology of Shanghai Pulmonary Hospital.
Conclusion:
Our study reveals that STAT3 and Src-YAP1 signaling activation occurs following single EGFR TKI in EGFR-mutant NSCLC. STAT3 and YAP1 mRNA levels were significantly predictive of progression-free survival in the original as well as in the validation cohort of EGFR-mutant NSCLC patients. Co-targeting STAT3 and Src in combination with EGFR TKI could substantially improve survival.
