P3.01-088b - Is Efficacy Result in Phase 2 Trial Replicated in Phase 3 Trial in Advanced NSCLC: A Meta-Analysis (ID 9125)

- Abstract
Background:
Phase 3 trial has been mandatory to establish new treatment. However, molecular targeted agents were often approved based on phase 2 trials. There have not been fully investigated whether efficacy data in phase 2 would be replicated in phase 3.
Method:
We extracted phase 2 and 3 trials for advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) using platinum doublet (Plt) or EGFR-tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) monotherapy, published between 2005 and 2015. Overall response rate (ORR) and median progression-free survival (PFS) in each study were collected. We compared these data between phase 2 and 3.
Result:
155 phase 2 trials and 13 phase 3 trials were adopted as Plt trials, while 21 phase 2 trials and 6 phase 3 trials were adopted as TKI trials. Plt trials had larger sample size (median number of patients: 47 in phase 2, and 203 in phase 3) than TKI trials (median number of patients: 29 in phase 2, and 101.5 in phase 3). In Plt trials, median ORR and median of median PFS were 31% and 5.2 months in phase 2, while 27% and 4.7 months in phase 3. There was statistically significant difference between phase 2 and phase 3 in ORR and mPFS (p = 0.03 and 0.03, respectively). In TKI trials, median ORR and median of median PFS were 64.0% and 9.7 months in phase 2, while 64.5% and 10.9 months in phase 3. There were not significant difference between phase 2 and phase 3 either in ORR and mPFS (p = 0.88 and 0.31, respectively). Among TKI trials, equivalence of efficacy data between phase 2 and phase 3 was also investigated in ORR and mPFS, but not proved (p = 0.30 and 0.45, respectively).
Conclusion:
Efficacy of TKI in phase 2 trial was well replicated in phase 3 trial.
