MA 16.04 - Phase II Trial of S-1 Treatment as Palliative-Intent Chemotherapy for Previously Treated Advanced Thymic Carcinoma (ID 8627)
16:00 - 16:05 | Author(s): Hidehito Horinouchi
- Abstract
- Presentation
Background:
Thymic carcinoma (TC) is a rare cancer with minimal evidence of survival with palliative-intent chemotherapy. Sunitinib and everolimus monotherapies have been proposed as active molecular-targeted approaches based on phase II (Ph II) trials, and S-1, an oral fluoropyrimidine, has been described in the NCCN guideline as an active cytotoxic agent for refractory TC based on a case series. Therefore, we conducted a Ph II trial to study the result of S-1 treatment in patients with refractory TC.
Method:
In this Ph II study performed at three cancer centers in Tokyo, we aimed to enroll 26 TC patients previously treated with platinum-based chemotherapy. The patients received S-1 orally twice daily at a dose of 40–60 mg/m2 for 4 weeks, followed by 2 weeks off until progressive disease or unacceptable toxicities. S-1 was used off-label. The primary end-point was determining the objective response rate, and secondary endpoints were progression-free survival (PFS), overall survival (OS), and toxicities.
Result:
Twenty-six patients (10 males) were recruited between November 2013 and May 2016. The median age was 63 (27–74) years. Among the 26 patients, 23 had squamous cell carcinoma histology and 10 had an ECOG performance status of 0. Additionally, one patient showed complete response and seven patients showed partial responses, resulting in a 30.8% response rate (95% confidence interval [CI], 16.5–50.0) and a 65.4% disease control rate (95% CI, 46.2–80.6). After a median follow-up of 13.4 months, the median PFS was 4.3 months (95% CI, 2.3–7.6 months) and median OS was 23.4 months (95% CI, 12.8–not reached). Treatment-related adverse events (AEs) of grade ≥3 included neutropenia (12%), skin rash (8%), elevated ALT, decreased WBC count, and fatigue (4%). No treatment-related death was observed. However, treatment was discontinued in three patients (12%) because of AEs.
Conclusion:
S-1 for refractory TC confirmed clinical activity with good tolerability. Clinical trial identification: UMIN000010736

MS 23.03 - What is Resectable N2 Disease, and What is Unresectable N2 Disease: A Medical Oncologist's Viewpoint (ID 7751)
15:10 - 15:30 | Presenting Author(s): Hidehito Horinouchi
- Abstract
- Presentation
Abstract:
Various treatment strategies, including chemotherapy, radiotherapy and surgery have been developed for patient populations with N2 lymph node metastasis, especially clinical stage IIIA-N2 non-small cell lung cancer (cIIIA-N2 NSCLC). For potentially resectable patients, clinical trials including surgical treatment have been published. Among them, EORTC-08941, INT-0139, ESPATUE examined the efficacy of adding surgical treatment with chemotherapy and radiotherapy in randomized design. In the INT-0139 study, surgery after induction chemoradiotherapy (CRT) demonstrated a 7% gain on 5-year survival, however, it failed to show statistical significance mainly because of treatment-related death in patients received pneumonectomy after induction CRT. Although the contribution of surgery was recognized, the additional effect of surgery over CRT has not been confirmed consistently in other trials. On the other hand, trials investigating newer medical treatment and higher radiotherapy dose have been conducted for patients with unresectable stage III NSCLC. In this patient population, so-called third generation cytotoxic agents whose effects were confirmed in patients with advanced disease, including paclitaxel (WJTOG0105), docetaxel (OLCSG 0007), vinorelbine and pemetrexed (PROCLAIM) with platinum have been actively examined but failed to show improvement compared to older agents (etoposide, vindesine and mitomycin C). Furthermore, high-dose radiotherapy (74Gy) with platinum-doublet chemotherapy showed strikingly shorter survival than conventional radiation dose (60Gy) in RTOG-0617. After these continuous efforts, CRT stayed as standard for those patients with unresectable N2 disease. Besides CRT, induction therapy followed by surgery has also come to be recognized as a treatment option for potentially resectable N2 disease in major guideline including ACCP, NCCN and ESMO. However, no clear answer has been provided for the question: what is resectable N2 disease, and what is unresectable N2 disease? To refine the heterogeneity in cIIIA-N2 NSCLC patients and show clues to answer the question of resectable/unresectable, we analyzed the data of consecutive patients with cIIIA-N2 NSCLC diagnosed and treated by CRT in National Cancer Center Hospital, Tokyo, Japan. The appearance of the mediastinal lymph nodes (MLNs) was classified into discrete or infiltrative according to the criteria proposed by the ACCP. In addition, the extent of MLN involvement (MLNI) was classified as limited (close to the primary tumor) or extensive (including upper MLNI in the case of tumors in the lower lobes and vice versa). Those with a discrete appearance of the MLNIs and a limited extent of MLNIs at diagnosis could show favorable survival outcomes by CRT without surgery comparable to the data provided by induction CRT followed by surgery. Meanwhile, immune checkpoint inhibition by PD-1/PD-L1 antibody has been being actively examined as adjuvant for early stage resectable NSCLC patients and consolidation therapy for unresectable stage III NSCLC patients after CRT. The PACIFIC is a phase III randomized clinical trial investigating the efficacy of MEDI-4736 (PD-L1 antibody) as consolidative therapy in patients without progression after definitive CRT. Based on the press release by AstraZeneca, MEDI-4736 showed significant prolongation of progression-free survival, suggesting that there is a possibility of changing standard treatment. Under such circumstances that powerful medical treatment option will be introduced in unresectable N2 disease, there is increasing need for an appropriate guidance to select surgical candidates in potentially resectable population. Now is the time to respond to the question of resectable/unresectable that has not been answered for a long time.

P1.03-005 - Phase 2 Study of Ceritinib in Patients with ALK+ NSCLC with Prior Alectinib Treatment in Japan: ASCEND-9 (ID 8417)
09:30 - 09:30 | Presenting Author(s): Hidehito Horinouchi
- Abstract
Background:
ALK inhibitors are a standard of care for ALK-positive metastatic NSCLC and several ALK inhibitors are currently available. Alectinib is one of the recommended therapies as 1[st] line treatment for ALK-positive metastatic NSCLC in Japan based on robust progression-free survival (PFS) prolongation and favorable safety profile. However, even with treatment with alectinib, these cancers eventually progress after acquiring resistance against alectinib. Therefore, which drug should be chosen after alectinib is relevant clinical question. Recently, ceritinib, which is a highly selective oral ALK inhibitor, has demonstrated superior activity compared to chemotherapy in the 1[st] line setting for patients with ALK-positive metastatic NSCLC (ASCEND-4, Soria et al. Lancet 2017). It also showed clinically meaningful benefit in patients who failed to prior ALK inhibitor treatment including alectinib (Nishio et al. J Thorac Oncol 2015). In this study, we tried to evaluate efficacy and safety of ceritinib in ALK-positive metastatic NSCLC patients who progressed on alectinib treatment.
Method:
ASCEND-9 (NCT02450903) is a single-arm, open-label, multicenter, phase 2 study of ceritinib 750 mg/day (fasted) in adult patients with ALK+ (Vysis ALK Break Apart FISH Probe kit test), stage IIIB/IV NSCLC previously treated with alectinib and had subsequent disease progression. Other key inclusion criteria are ≥ 1 measurable lesion per RECIST 1.1 and WHO PS 0-1. Patients must have received previous treatment with alectinib, but prior crizotinib and/or up to 1 chemotherapy regimen are allowed. Patients with asymptomatic CNS metastases are eligible. Ceritinib may be continued beyond RECIST-defined PD. Primary endpoint is investigator assessed-overall response rate (ORR) per RECIST 1.1. Secondary endpoints include disease control rate (DCR), time to response (TTR), duration of response (DOR), PFS and safety. Biomarkers are evaluated for exploratory purpose.
Result:
Twenty patients were enrolled at 10 centers in Japan from Aug 2015 to Feb 2017. At present, the study is underway, and the results including ORR, DCR, TTR, DOR, PFS, safety and exploratory biomarker data will be presented at the 2017 WCLC.
Conclusion:

P2.03-036 - Comparing the Efficacy/Toxicity of Osimertinib and First Line EGFR-TKI by Individual Patient Analysis (ID 9380)
09:30 - 09:30 | Author(s): Hidehito Horinouchi
- Abstract
Background:
Osimertinib is a third generation epidermal growth factor receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitor (EGFR-TKI), which showed its efficacy for T790M resistant mutation in patients with advanced and recurrent non small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). The efficacy and toxicity of osimertinib comparing to previous EGFR-TKIs are not fully elucidated. Since every patient receiving osimertinib has received previous EGFR-TKI therapy, we compared the efficacy and toxicity of those agents in the same patients.
Method:
We retrospectively reviewed medical records of patients with T790M mutation positive advanced and recurrent NSCLC, who had disease progression after previous EGFR-TKI, the standard first line therapy, and started osimertinib between April 2016 and March 2017 at National Caner Center Hospital. Progression free survival (PFS) of osimertinib, and 1st line EGFR-TKI PFS of the same patients were calculated by Kaplan-Meier method. Objective response rate (ORR) was assessed according to RECIST version 1,1. Adverse events (AEs) were also reviewed to evaluate the difference of safety profiles between osimertinib and previous EGFR-TKIs.
Result:
A total of 46 patients with T790M positive NSCLC received osimertinib after the failure of first line EGFR-TKI treatment. At May 2017, the median follow-up time since the start of osimertinib was 7.8months. The median age was 65 (range 36-82), the median number of treatment received before osimertinib was 3 (range 1-9), and the median wash out time of 1st line EGFR-TKI till the start of osimertinib was 14.0 months. The median PFS of osimertinib is not reached. The median PFS of first line EGFR-TKI was 15.2 months. ORR of osimertinib and first line EGFR-TKI was 56.0% and 65.2%, respectively. The most frequent AEs of any grade of osimertinib were rash, dry skin, paronychia, and diarrhea (39.4%, 35.8%, 32.1%, and 30.2%, respectively). Rash, paronychia, and diarrhea over grade 2 was 6.5%, 6.5%, and 0% with osimertinib, compared to 0%, 12.5%, and 4.1% with gefitinib, and 41.7%, 8.3%, and 0% with erlotinib. The incidence of pneumonitis with osimertinib treatment was 10.9% (5 cases) in any grade, and 6.5% (3 cases) in grade 3 to 4, though 2 of them (1 case in grade 1 and 1 in grade 3) had received nivolumab as the prior chemotherapy. Except for pneumonitis, there was no AE leading to permanent discontinuation related to osimertinib.
Conclusion:
Osimertinib showed the efficacy and feasibility even in practical use. Adverse effect of osimertinib was generally better tolerated than previous EGFR-TKIs, except for pneumonitis.

P2.03-048 - Mixed Response of Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer Harboring the EGFR T790M Mutation to Osimertinib (ID 9807)
09:30 - 09:30 | Author(s): Hidehito Horinouchi
- Abstract
Background:
Although patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) harboring epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutations respond well to EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs), most progress after approximately 1 year. At the time of progression, the EGFR T790M mutation is detected in more than half of these tumors. NSCLC harboring the T790M mutation shows a high response rate to osimertinib. However, the heterogeneous nature of NSCLC may limit the efficacy of osimertinib to those lesions with the T790M mutation, and a subset of patients may show a mixed response (MR), whereby some lesions shrink while others progress at the first evaluation. Previous study showed that about 20% of NSCLC patients exhibit MR to systemic therapies including EGFR-TKI. However, little is known about characteristics of MR to osimertinib.
Method:
To determine the frequency of a MR, we retrospectively reviewed patients treated with osimertinib for NSCLC harboring the EGFR T790M mutation at the National Cancer Center Hospital.
Result:
Between April and December 2016, 45 patients (median age 65 [36‒82] years, 19 [42%] males) who had NSCLC with the T790M mutation received osimertinib. The median numbers of previous chemotherapies and EGFR-TKI therapies received by the patients were 1 and 2, respectively. All measurable tumor lesions showed a response to therapy in 35 (77%) patients and progression in three (7%) patients. A MR was seen in seven (16%) patients. Of these seven patients, the re-biopsy specimens in which T790M was detected were derived from the primary lesion in six and a metastatic lymph node in one patient. Two types of MRs were seen among these seven patients: (1) the tumor including the re-biopsy site responded, while the other lesions progressed (five patients), and (2) the tumor including the re-biopsy site progressed (two patients). The most frequent progressive sites were liver and lung metastasis (four patients, respectively). Three patients continued to receive osimertinib after the MR, one of whom underwent drug-eluting bead transarterial chemoembolization (DEB-TACE) for progressive liver metastasis and achieved disease control on osimertinib for an additional 4 months after the MR.
Conclusion:
A MR to osimertinib was seen in 16% of patients with NSCLC harboring the EGFR T790M mutation. This suggests that resistance mechanism of 1st line EGFR-TKI may differ by the site in same patient. Since benefit of osimertinib is mainly seen in T790M mutation, addition of local therapy may be beneficial for patients who develop a MR to osimertinib.

P2.07-011 - Long Follow up from Phase I Study of Nivolumab and Chemotherapy in Patients with Advanced Non-Small-Cell Lung Cancer (ID 8156)
09:30 - 09:30 | Author(s): Hidehito Horinouchi
- Abstract
Background:
This phase I study investigated the tolerability, safety and pharmacokinetics of nivolumab in combination with chemotherapy in Japanese patients with advanced non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC).
Method:
Patients who have stage IIIB without indication for definitive radiotherapy, stage IV，or recurrent NSCLC were eligible. nivolumab (10 mg/kg，day 1) and chemotherapy [arm A: cisplatin (80 mg/m[2], day 1) / gemcitabine (1250 mg/m[2], day 1 and 8), arm B: cisplatin (75 mg/m[2], day 1) / pemetrexed (500 mg/m[2], day 1), arm C: carboplatin (AUC 6, day 1) / paclitaxel (200 mg/m[2], day 1) / bevacizumab (15 mg/kg, day 1), arm D: docetaxel (75 mg/m[2], day 1)] were administered every three weeks. Arm A and B were administrated for four cycles and arm C was for four to six cycles as first-line chemotherapy. After that, nivolumab in arm A, nivolumab / pemetrexed in arm B, and nivolumab / bevacizumab in arm C were continued every three weeks as maintenance therapy until disease progression. Arm D were administrated until disease progression as second-line chemotherapy.
Result:
Six patients each in four arms, total 24 patients were enrolled. Median follow-up time was 20.4 months. Progression free survival [median (range)] were 6.3 (0.7-42.2+) months in arm A, 11.8 (1.4-47.4+) months in arm B, 40.7 (5.3-43.5+) months in arm C, and 3.2 (1.9-10.9) months in arm D. Three-year progression-free survival rates were 20% in arm A, 16,7% in arm B, 62.5% in arm C, and 0% in arm D.
Conclusion:
nivolumab 10 mg/kg showed acceptable toxicity profile and encouraging antitumor activity in combination with chemotherapies in Japanese patients with advanced NSCLC. Especially, arm C showed favorable response rate and long progression free survival in this study.

P3.02-041 - EGFR Amplification Mediates Resistance to TAS121, A Third-Generation EGFR-TKI, in EGFR T790M-Positive Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (ID 9168)
09:30 - 09:30 | Author(s): Hidehito Horinouchi
- Abstract
Background:
Third-generation epidermal growth factor receptor-tyrosine kinase inhibitors (EGFR-TKIs) have shown promising efficacy in EGFR T790M-mutation-positive non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). However, acquired resistance to third-generation EGFR-TKIs has been reported in EGFR T790M-positive NSCLC. The mechanism of resistance to these third-generation EGFR-TKIs has not been fully elucidated. We report a case of metastatic NSCLC harboring an EGFR T790M mutation in which EGFR amplification mediated acquired resistance to TAS121, a novel third-generation EGFR-TKI.
Method:
A 68-year-old woman with metastatic lung adenocarcinoma, harboring an EGFR L858R mutation, received gefitinib in September 2013. Although the patient achieved a partial response, the tumor progressed and she was treated with 4 cycles of chemotherapy using cisplatin and pemetrexed followed by pemetrexed maintenance therapy. In April 2015, computed tomography (CT) showed disease progression (PD) with liver metastases, and re-biopsy of hepatic lesions was performed. Tumor genotyping with the PNA LNA PCR-Clamp method revealed an original mutation of EGFR L858R in exon 21 and a secondary mutation of EGFR T790M in exon 20. Tumor progression was noted after completion of one cycle of docetaxel, and she was enrolled into a phase 1 trial of TAS121 in June 2015. Although she showed a partial response to TAS121, PD was confirmed on CT, which indicated progression of liver metastases. She discontinued TAS121 and received supportive care. She died in October 2015, and an autopsy was performed. To determine the mechanism of resistance to TAS121, we performed next-generation sequencing (NGS) (NCC OncoPanel, Agilent) with post-TAS121 samples obtained from progressing liver lesions during TAS121 treatment. We also conducted fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) analysis for EGFR in pre-TAS121 liver lesions, post-TAS121 liver lesions, and autopsy samples from the lung and liver. The study protocol was approved by the Ethical Review Committee of the National Cancer Center Hospital.
Result:
NGS with the post-TAS121 liver samples showed EGFR amplification in the tumor cells (log2 ratio 2.2). On FISH analysis, EGFR amplification was not detected in the pre-TAS121 liver lesions (the ratio of EGFR signals to CEP signals 1.7), but was detected in the post-TAS121 liver lesions (2.1) and those obtained at autopsy (3.0). EGFR amplification was not detected in the autopsy samples of the lung lesions (1.0), which remained stable during TAS121 treatment.
Conclusion:
Our case revealed that genomic instability of the EGFR domain contributed to the development of resistance to TAS121. Further molecular analysis is warranted to understand the role of EGFR amplification in acquired resistance to third-generation EGFR-TKIs.

P3.04-002 - A Randomized Phase II Study of Carboplatin plus Nab-Paclitaxel with or Without Nintedanib for NSCLC with IPF (J-SONIC): Trial in Progress (ID 9627)
09:30 - 09:30 | Author(s): Hidehito Horinouchi
- Abstract
Background:
Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is a fatal lung disease characterized by worsening dyspnea and progressive loss of lung function. Acute exacerbation of IPF is associated with high morbidity and mortality. Several studies have provided evidence of an association between lung cancer and IPF, with a prevalence of lung cancer in IPF patients ranging from 9.8% to 38%. Although the efficacy of nintedanib for IPF has been demonstrated, it has remained unknown whether this agent also reduces the risk of chemotherapy-induced acute exacerbation of IPF. Patients with interstitial pneumonia have been excluded from most prospective clinical trials for NSCLC because of the risk of acute exacerbation, with only two prospective single-arm phase II studies having been reported. In addition, it has been difficult to perform a randomized prospective clinical trial for patients with advanced NSCLC and IPF because of their rarity. The optimal chemotherapy regimen for advanced NSCLC with IPF has thus remained unclear.
Method:
Chemotherapy-naïve patients with advanced NSCLC associated with IPF (enrollment target of n = 170) are randomized at a 1:1 ratio to receive four cycles of carboplatin (AUC 6 on day 1) plus nab-paclitaxel (100 mg/m[2] on days 1, 8, and 15) administered every 3 weeks either without (arm A) or with (arm B) nintedanib (150 mg b.i.d., daily), to be followed in arm B by single-agent administration of nintedanib (150 mg b.i.d., daily). The primary end point of the study is time to acute exacerbation of IPF.Figure 1
Result:
Section not applicable
Conclusion:
J-SONIC is the first randomized controlled study for treatment of NSCLC associated with IPF. The goal of the study is to demonstrate that nintedanib in combination with carboplatin plus nab-paclitaxel prolongs time to acute exacerbation of IPF compared with carboplatin plus nab-paclitaxel alone. Study enrollment began in May 2017 and is to continue for 3 years.
