P3.01-036 - A Phase IIIb Open-Label, Single-Arm Study of Afatinib in EGFR TKI-Naïve Patients with EGFRm+ NSCLC: An Interim Analysis (ID 9251)
09:30 - 09:30 | Author(s): K. Li
- Abstract
Background:
In the Phase III LUX-Lung (LL) 3 and LL6 trials, first-line afatinib significantly improved PFS vs platinum-doublet chemotherapy in patients with EGFRm+ NSCLC (independent review; LL3: 11.1 vs 6.9 months, HR=0.58; p=0.001; LL6: 11.0 vs 5.6 months, HR=0.28; p<0.0001). In the Phase IIb LL7 trial, afatinib significantly improved PFS and TTF vs gefitinib in patients with EGFRm+ NSCLC harboring common EGFR mutations (PFS, independent review: 11.0 vs 10.9 months, HR=0.73; p=0.017; TTF: 13.7 vs 11.5 months, HR=0.73, p=0.0073). Here we report interim analysis results of a large Phase IIIb study of afatinib in a broad population of EGFR TKI-naïve patients with EGFRm+ NSCLC.
Method:
In this Phase IIIb trial with a similar setting to ‘real-world’ practice, EGFR TKI-naïve patients with locally advanced/metastatic EGFRm+ NSCLC were recruited from centers in China, Hong Kong, India, Singapore and Taiwan and received afatinib 40mg/day until investigator-assessed progression or lack of tolerability. Primary endpoint: number of patients with serious adverse events (SAEs). Secondary endpoints included: number of patients with afatinib-related AEs; time to symptomatic progression (TTSP). Other assessments included PFS (investigator review).
Result:
At data cut-off (13 Feb 2017) 479 patients were treated with afatinib (median age: 59.0 years; female: 52.4%; common [(Del19 and/or L858R) with or without uncommon]/uncommon only EGFR mutations: 86.0%/14.0%; ECOG PS 0/1: 19.8%/78.1%; brain metastases: 19.2%; 0/1/≥2 lines of prior chemotherapy: 59.7%/30.1%/10.2%. 24.8% of patients required dose reductions to 30mg; 6.1% had further reductions to 20mg. Median (range) treatment time was 9.7 months (0.2–38.6). SAEs were reported in 115 (24.0%) patients and afatinib-related SAEs in 29 (6.1%) patients. Grade ≥3 afatinib-related AEs occurred in 122 (25.5%) patients; diarrhea (n=50; 10.4%) and rash/acne (n=38; 7.9%) were the most common (≥5%). 18 (3.8%) patients discontinued treatment due to afatinib-related AEs. Median TTSP (15.3 months [95% CI: 13.4–17.5]) was 3 months longer than PFS (12.1 months [10.8–13.7]), suggesting afatinib may be continued beyond progression, and both were longer in patients with common (with/without uncommon) vs uncommon only EGFR mutations (PFS: 12.6 vs 9.1; TTSP: 15.8 vs 10.0 months).
Conclusion:
The safety data of afatinib from this interim analysis of a large-scale population of EGFR TKI-naïve EGFRm+ NSCLC patients are consistent with LL3/6/7 and confirm that most afatinib-related AEs are manageable and result in few treatment discontinuations. Afatinib also demonstrated encouraging efficacy in patients with common and uncommon EGFR mutations. Data from larger patient populations will be evaluated in further analyses of this trial.

P3.03-006 - Efficiency of Anlotinib as 3rd Line Treatment in Patients with Different EGFR Gene Status, an Exploratory Subgroup Analysis of ALTER0303 Trial (ID 8306)
09:30 - 09:30 | Author(s): K. Li
- Abstract
Background:
Anlotinib hydrochloride is a novel TKI targeting the VEGFR, FGFR, PDGFR and c-Kit. ALTER0303 trial (NCT02388919), phase III study has demonstrated that Anlotinib significantly prolonged OS and PFS in advanced NSCLC patients as 3[rd] line treatment. Here we report the efficacy of anlotinib in patients with or without EGFR gene mutations from the ALTER0303 trial.
Method:
Eligible adult IIIB/IV NSCLC patients who progressed after at least 2 lines of prior therapies were randomized 2:1 to receive Anlotinib or placebo (12 mg QD from day 1 to 14 of a 21-day cycle) till progression. Patients harboring EGFR or ALK mutations must had received previous targeted therapies. Primary endpoint is OS.
Result:
Among patients with sensitive EGFR mutations, the PFS was 0.83 months for control arm and 5.57 months for anlotinib arm (p<0.0001, HR=0.15, 95%CI: 0.09-0.24). Accordingly, OS was found 4.43 months longer in anlotinib group (6.27 vs 10.70, p=0.0227, HR=0.59, 95%CI: 0.37-0.93). On the other hand, in the subgroup of patients with wild-type EGFR gene, remarkable advantages in PFS and OS were observed as well. Specifically, PFS in control arm was 1.57 months which is 3.80 months shorter than that in anlotinib group (1.57 vs 5.37, p<0.0001, HR=0.29, 95%CI: 0.22-0.39). As to OS, superiority of 2.40 months was found in anlotinib arm (6.47 vs 8.87, p=0.0282, HR=0.73, 95%CI: 0.55-0.97). In the patients treated with Anlotinib, the most common (≥ 3 grade) and significantly differ from placebo group AEs were hypertension (13.61%), dermal toxicity (3.74%) and hypertriglyceridemia (3.06%). These results indicate that either the patient with EGFR mutation or not, they can both benefit from Anlotinib treatment.
Conclusion:
In ALTER0303 trial, significant advances in OS and PFS were found in anlotinib treated patients from both subgroups (sensitive EGFR mutations and wild EGFR gene type), indicating that, independent of the EGFR gene status, anlotinb treatment led to a consistent improvement in OS and PFS for advanced NSCLC patients and may be an appropriate option for this difficult-to-treat population as 3[rd] line treatment.

P3.03-017 - Blood Samples NGS for Baseline Molecular Signature of Anotinib Treated Advanced NSCLC Patients in ALTER0303 Trial (ID 9670)
09:30 - 09:30 | Author(s): K. Li
- Abstract
Background:
Anlotinib hydrochloride, an oral multi-target TKI targeting VEGFR, FGFR, PDGFR and c-Kit, have demonstrated noticeable effects for advanced NSCLC as 3[rd] line treatment in phase III trial (ALTER0303). Anlotinib significantly improved OS (9.63 vs. 6.30 months, p=0.0018, HR=0.68) and PFS (5.37 vs 1.40 months, p<0.0001, HR=0.26) comparing to placebo. Here, we applied ctDNA-based NGS to investigate the association between baseline molecular signature and clinical parameters.
Method:
Blood samples were collected from patients who enrolled in Anlotinib arm in ALTER0303 trial. Total of 92 samples were analyzed by capture-based targeted ultra-deep sequencing using a panel consisting of critical exons and introns of 168 NSCLC-related genes for the baseline genetic profiling.
Result:
At baseline, ctDNA was detected in 85% samples (78/92), driver mutation was found in 58% (53/92) samples. POM121L12 and CDKN2A mutations showed a tendency of co-occurrence with TP53, and mutually exclusivity was found between KEAP1 and TP53. The correlation between baseline molecular signature and treatment efficacy measured by PFS or best response was also investigated. Maximum mutation allele frequency (MAF) at baseline was inversely correlated with PFS (P=0.006, HR=0.612, 95%CI: 0.402-0.932). Patients achieving SD or PR had a significantly lower MAF comparing to patients having PD as their best response (p=0.018). Tumor mutation burden (TMB) is positively correlated with age (p=0.016) and gender (p=0.01). POM121L12, TP53 and MYC statuses are correlated with metastases burden. Moreover, as an important drive gene, EGFR mutation and/or EGFR amplification was found in 36 patients at baseline. In 27 patients with sensitizing EGFR mutation (L858R or 19 del), no significant differences was found in PFS compare to those without this mutation (n=65) (5.53 vs 5.53 months, p=0.495, HR=1.16, 95%CI: 0.73-1.85). As well, no significant difference was found in PFS between the patients with (n=17) or without EGFR T790M mutation (5.53 vs 5.53 months, p=0.253, HR=1.35, 95%CI: 0.75-2.41). Interestingly, in patients with EGFR amplification (n=10), the PFS is significantly shorter than those with normal EGFR copy number (2.12 vs 5.57 months, p=0.002, HR=2.70, 95%CI: 0.99-7.36). However, a tendency of PFS benefit is still observed in patients with EGFR amplification treated by Anlotinib comparing placebo arm in ALTER0303 (1.40 months).
Conclusion:
According to available data, no correlation was found between PFS and EGFR sensitizing mutations or T790M in anlotinib treatment. The negative correlation of EGFR amplification and PFS is still need verification to eliminate the bias caused by the disparity and limitation of samples. A larger scale analysis is ongoing.
