MA 13.08 - Long Term Follow-up on NRG Oncology RTOG 0915 (NCCTG N0927): a Randomized Phase II Study of 2 SBRT Schedules for Lung Cancer (ID 7390)
16:25 - 16:30 | Author(s): J. Urbanic
- Abstract
- Presentation
Background:
NRG Oncology RTOG 0915/NCCTG N0927 was a randomized lung stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) trial of 34 Gy in 1 fraction (arm 1) versus 48 Gy in 4 fractions (arm 2) designed to select the better of the 2 regimens by comparing them at 1 year (yr): first by rates of pre-specified protocol-specified adverse events (psAEs), then by primary tumor control for each arm. 34 Gy emerged as the least toxic yet equally efficacious regimen. Herein, we update those results with long-term follow-up.
Method:
This phase II North American multicenter study of patients aged 18 yrs or older with medically inoperable non-small cell lung cancer with biopsy-proven peripheral (≥2 cm from the central bronchial tree) T1 or T2, N0 (clinically node negative by positron emission tomography), M0 tumors was designed to detect 1-yr psAEs rates >17% as primary endpoint. Primary tumor failure (PTF) (either infield or marginal failure) and local failure (either infield, marginal, or involved lobe failure) [with death without failure considered as a competing event]; overall survival (OS); disease-free survival (DFS) and progression-free survival (PFS) were secondary endpoints, but the study was not designed for statistical comparisons of these outcomes. The study opened in September 2009 and closed in March 2011. Updated data were analyzed through November 14, 2016.
Result:
Ninety four patients were accrued, with 86 eligible for analysis: 41 in arm 1 and 45 in arm 2, after 8 cases were excluded. Median follow-up time was 3.8 yrs for all patients, and 5.1 yrs for those alive at analysis. The grade 3 and higher treatment-related toxicity profile was unchanged since previous report, with specifically no new high grade chest wall or grade 5 events. Four of 48 Gy patients had subsequent grade 3 changes in spirometry since meeting the primary endpoint. Medians (in yrs) for 34 Gy and 48 Gy were: 4.1 vs. 4.0 for OS, and 2.6 vs. 2.8 for DFS, respectively. Five-yr outcomes as % (95% CI) for 34 Gy and 48 Gy were: PTF rate of 7.9 (2.0, 19.5) vs. 6.8 (1.7, 16.9); OS of 28.8 (15.4, 43.8) vs. 40.2 (24.9, 55.0); PFS of 19.1 (8.5, 33.0) vs. 31.8 (18.6, 45.9); and second primary rate of 15.5 (6.1, 28.9) vs. 13.3 (5.3, 25.1), respectively. Distant failure as the sole failure or a component of first failure was numerically higher in the 34 Gy arm (7 (46.7%)), but in the 48 Gy arm, rate of second primary development was higher (7 (43.8%)). Approximately 1/3 of patients’ causes of death was unknown, and another 1/3 was related to causes other than cancer or treatment.
Conclusion:
No excess in late-appearing toxicity was seen in either arm. Primary tumor control rates at 5 yrs were similar by arm. Median survival times of 4 yrs for each arm suggest similar efficacy pending any larger studies appropriately powered to detect survival differences.

P3.04-003 - Phase II Trial of Atezolizumab Before and After Definitive Chemoradiation for Patients with Unresectable Stage III NSCLC (ID 9662)
09:30 - 09:30 | Author(s): J. Urbanic
- Abstract
Background:
More than 40,000 US patients per year present with stage III NSCLC. These patients are of particular interest in that most are not resectable and while they can be treated with curative intent with excellent initial responses, only approximately 25% will be cured by conventional chemoradiotherapy. This, together with the generally better health of this cohort compared to patients with metastatic NSCLC, makes these patients ideal candidates for studies of immunotherapy to increase cure rates. The combination of checkpoint inhibition to counter tumor related immunosuppression along with standard chemoradiotherapy that depletes T-regulatory cells should create immunologic “space” to facilitate clonal expansion of effector T-cells in an environment that fosters improved tumor immunogenicity by blocking PD-L1. Responses to immunotherapy seem to be higher in patients for whom significant cytoreduction can be achieved, such as with radiation of all known disease. Further, both chemotherapy and radiation may expose otherwise hidden antigens that can present additional targets to the reconstituting immune system.
Method:
This phase II single arm Alliance Foundation study (NCT03102242) will evaluate safety and efficacy of atezolizumab before and after definitive chemoradiotherapy. 63 patients with stage III NSCLC, PS 0-1, no active autoimmune disease, adequate cardiopulmonary function and no underlying organ dysfunction will be enrolled at 15 Alliance sites in the US. Treatment consists of 4 cycles of neoadjuvant atezolizumab 1200 mg IV q 21 days before chemoradiotherapy with restaging after cycles 2 and 4. Nonprogressing patients undergo weekly carboplatin and paclitaxel concurrent with 60 Gy thoracic radiotherapy followed by 2 cycles of carboplatin and paclitaxel consolidation followed by completion of one year of atezolizumab. The primary endpoint of this pilot study is disease control (CR+PR+SD) after neoadjuvant atezolizumab. Secondary endpoints include ORR, PFS and OS, safety and QoL assessed by the EORTC QLQ-30. Translational endpoints seek to define the role of PD-L1 biomarker testing in selecting the population most likely to respond to neoadjuvant and adjuvant immunotherapy together with standard chemoradiotherapy and to study the association of biomarkers, including immunologic signatures, with response and survival. Tumor tissue will be assessed at study entry and, where possible, at progression. Plasma and immune cells will be assessed at baseline, post neoadjuvant atezolizumab, post chemoradiotherapy, during adjuvant atezolizumab and at study completion or progression. Analyses may include multipanel immunohistochemistry, gene expression profiling, whole exome and T cell receptor sequencing, cytokine/chemokine analysis, flow cytometry immunophenotyping, and T cell function.
