MA 10.02 - Nab-Paclitaxel + Durvalumab as Second- or Third-Line Treatment of Advanced NSCLC: Results from ABOUND.2L+ (ID 8682)
11:05 - 11:10 | Author(s): C. Lewanski
- Abstract
- Presentation
Background:
Chemotherapy may enhance immunotherapeutic effects by causing tumor antigen release, which primes the immune system to kill tumor cells. Early clinical data on nab-paclitaxel + carboplatin in combination with immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICI) demonstrated promising activity without compounding toxicities in patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). ABOUND.2L+ evaluated nab-paclitaxel–based regimens in previously treated patients with advanced NSCLC. Here we report the efficacy and safety of nab-paclitaxel + durvalumab as second/third-line treatment.
Method:
Patients with advanced NSCLC were assigned to receive second/third-line (immunotherapy allowed in prior line, including platinum doublet combination) nab-paclitaxel 100 mg/m[2] on days 1 and 8 + durvalumab 1125 mg on day 15, in 21-day cycles, administered until unacceptable toxicity/progression per immune-related RECIST v1.1. Primary endpoint is progression-free survival (PFS). Secondary endpoints are overall survival (OS), overall response rate (ORR), disease control rate (DCR), and safety.
Result:
Seventy-nine patients were enrolled. Median age was 63 years, 68% of patients were male, 23% had Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance status of 0, and 70% had nonsquamous NSCLC; 11% of patients received prior ICIs. Median PFS (Table) and OS were 4.5 (3.4-5.8) months and NE (7.3-NE). ORR was 27% (1 complete response) and DCR was 71%. Grade 3/4 treatment-emergent adverse events of special interest occurring in ≥ 5% of patients included neutropenia (6%) and dyspnea (5%); grade 3/4 peripheral neuropathy and anemia each occurred in 4% of patients. Median treatment duration was 24 weeks; median number of treatment cycles was 7. For nab-paclitaxel and durvalumab, median dose intensities were 59.05 mg/m[2]/week and 326.61 mg/week, respectively; median percentages of per-protocol dose were 88.58% and 87.10%.
Conclusion:
The combination of durvalumab with nab-paclitaxel demonstrated antitumor activity with manageable toxicity in the second/third-line setting. Further details will be presented.

MA 10.03 - 3-Year Survival and Duration of Response in Randomized Phase II Study of Atezolizumab vs Docetaxel in 2L/3L NSCLC (POPLAR) (ID 8703)
11:10 - 11:15 | Author(s): C. Lewanski
- Abstract
- Presentation
Background:
Atezolizumab (anti–PD-L1) has demonstrated OS benefit over docetaxel in a randomized Phase II study, POPLAR, in patients with advanced NSCLC. This benefit has been confirmed in the randomized Phase III study OAK (Rittmeyer, 2017). The 3-year survival analysis of the POPLAR study presented here describes the longest survival follow-up reported to date of an all-comer randomized PD-L1/PD-1 immunotherapy trial in 2L+ NSCLC.
Method:
Patients were randomized 1:1 to receive atezolizumab (1200 mg) or docetaxel (75 mg/m[2]) IV q3w. Tumors were prospectively evaluated for tumor cell (TC) or tumor-infiltrating immune cell (IC) PD-L1 expression using the VENTANA SP142 IHC assay. Landmark OS was estimated using the Kaplan-Meier method. Data cutoff, April 7, 2017; minimum follow-up, 3 years.
Result:
The 2-year and 3-year survival with atezolizumab vs docetaxel were 32.2% vs 16.6% and 18.7% vs 10.0%, respectively. The long-term OS benefit of atezolizumab vs docetaxel was observed across histology and PD-L1 expression subgroups (Table). While the TC3 or IC3 subgroup derived the greatest OS benefit, the TC0 and IC0 subgroup also had improved long-term OS with atezolizumab vs docetaxel. The ITT ORR was 15% in both atezolizumab and docetaxel arms, but the median duration of response was 3 times longer with atezolizumab (22.3 months [95% CI: 11.6, 31.1] vs 7.2 months [95% CI: 5.8, 12.2] with docetaxel). Seven of the 11 docetaxel-arm 3-year survivors received subsequent non-protocol therapy with anti–PD-L1/PD-1 agents. Atezolizumab had a favorable safety profile compared with docetaxel that was consistent with previous reports.
Conclusion:
Atezolizumab demonstrates superior 2-year and 3-year OS benefit compared with docetaxel, and this benefit is observed across histology and PD-L1 expression subgroups (including TC0 and IC0). Atezolizumab is well tolerated, and responses are highly durable. These results are consistent with long-term OS results from OAK, presented separately.Table.
