      Background:
      Trastuzumab emtansine (T-DM1), an anti-HER2 antibody conjugated with vinca-alkaloid, has been approved for clinical use in HER2-positive breast cancer. HER2-alterations are detected even in non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC). We have launched a phase II trial of T-DM1 monotherapy for patients with HER2-positive lung cancer.

      Method:
      Eligible patients had pathologically diagnosed NSCLC with documented HER2-positivity (immunohistochemistry [IHC] 3+, both IHC 2+ and fluorescence in situ hybridization [FISH] +, or exon 20 insertion mutation) and were previously treated with standard chemotherapy. Thirty patients would receive T-DM1 3.6 mg/kg every 3 weeks. The primary endpoint is the overall response rate (ORR) per RECIST v1.1.

      Result:
      This study was early terminated due to the limited efficacy, leading that only 16 patients were registered. The demographics of the 15 evaluable patients were as follows: age (median; 67, range: 45-77), sex (male; 47%), performance status (0-1; 80%), histology (non-squamous; 100%), HER2 status (IHC3+; 33%, IHC2+/FISH; 20%, and mutation; 47%) and number of prior chemotherapeutic regimens (median; 4, range: 1-7). Of 15 patients, one, who possessed HER2 mutation achieved a partial response, resulting in ORR of 6.7%. None of the 15 patients experienced treatment-related deaths. Survival data would be presented at the meeting.

      Conclusion:
      T-DM1 has a limited efficacy for HER2-positive NSCLCs in our cohort. Additional molecular approaches are warranted for the precision medicine in HER2-positive tumors. UMIN registration number 000019446.

      OA 12.03 - Clinical Features of Advanced Lung Cancer Harboring HER2 Aberrations: A Large Prospective Cohort Study (HER2-CS STUDY) (ID 8694)

      Background:
      HER2 is a potential driver oncogene. HER2-targeted precision therapy has been tested in NSCLC. However, the demographics of HER2-positive NSCLC have not been defined systematically.

      Method:
      Pts with advanced NSCLC were registered. HER2-IHC and FISH assays were performed with commercial kits. HER2 mutations were identified by the direct sequencing. The aim of this study was to clarify the frequency, characteristics and outcome of HER2-positive NSCLC.

      Result:
      Of 1,126 tumors screened (Table A), 34 (3.0%) were IHC3+, and 34 (3.0%) were IHC2+/FISH+. Among the 724 EGFR wild-type tumors, 21 (2.9%) were HER2-mutant tumors, including A775_G776insYVMA (n = 15). Interestingly, the IHC3+ tumors and mutant tumors were entirely exclusive. Female pts had HER2 mutant tumors more frequently, while IHC/FISH+ tumors were detected more often in males (Table B). HER2-positive tumors had similar survival outcome to triple negative tumors, but significantly worse prognoses than EGFR-mutant and ALK-positive tumors (p < 0.05 each). The treament info will be presented at the meeting.

      A. The Genotype-Specific Subsets*
      HER2 (n = 88) EGFR (n = 358) ALK (n = 44) Triple negative /unknown (n = 662) Total (n = 1,126)
      Age, median Sex (male) Smoking habit Non-Sq Stage III/IV 69 61 (69%) 58 (66%) 78 (89%) 51 (58%) 69 142 (40%) 142 (40%) 351 (98%) 220 (61%) 62 21 (48%) 19 (43%) 44 (100%) 35 (80%) 69 516 (78%) 544 (82%) 503 (76%) 423 (64%) 69 726 (64%) 754 (67%) 951 (84%) 714 (63%)
      MST (mo) 1-yr OS rate 17.5 59% NR 85% NR 79% 15.1 59% 19.8 67%
      B. The Subsets of HER2 aberrations**
      IHC3+ (n = 34) IHC2+/FISH+ (n = 34) Mutant (n = 21)
      Age, median Sex (male) Smoking habit Non-Sq Stage III/IV 71 27 (79%) 24 (71%) 30 (88%) 17 (50%) 71 27 (79%) 26 (76%) 28 (82%) 21 (62%) 65 8 (38%) 9 (43%) 21 (100%) 14 (67%)
      MST (mo) 1-yr OS rate 10.5 46% 16.0 70% NR 59%
      *including 22 pts with HER2-positive tumors with EGFR mutations, 2 with both HER2- and ALK-positive tumors, and 2 had ALK-positive tumors with EGFR-mutations. ** 1 had an IHC2+/FISH+ tumor with mutation.

      Conclusion:
      This is the first prospective study showing a small fraction of NSCLC possessed HER2 aberrations. HER2-positive tumors had relatively poor prognosis. NSCLCs with HER2 IHC3+ and mutation seem to be distinct subsets.
