Abstract

Background

Amgen study 20190436 (study-436) is a global protocol under the sotorasib EAP which allowed compassionate use of sotorasib, a first-in-class KRAS G12C inhibitor, in previously treated patients (pts) with KRAS G12C-mutated aNSCLC. The median real-world progression-free survival previously reported in study-436 was 6.7 (95% CI, 4.6–8.3) months. Here we present the median OS data from study-436.

Methods

Pts, including those with Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance status (ECOG PS) 2, a history of CNS metastases, additional co-morbidities, and who had exhausted other treatment options, were enrolled in 6 countries (USA, ARG, BRA, ISR, SAU, TWN) across 49 centers. The primary endpoint assessed the safety of oral sotorasib 960 mg once daily. Median OS, a key secondary endpoint, was estimated based on the time from the start of sotorasib treatment until death due to any cause.

Results

A total of 147 pts received sotorasib. At baseline, pts had received a median of 2 (range, 0–8) prior lines of anticancer therapy, 37 (25%) pts had ECOG PS 2, and 48 (33%) had a history of CNS metastases. With a median follow-up of 13.6 (95% CI, 11.1–14.6) months, the median OS was 9.5 (95% CI, 8.6–12.0) months. Among the subgroups, the median OS was numerically longer in pts with ECOG PS 0 or 1 vs ECOG PS 2; with up to 2 vs > 2 prior lines of anticancer therapies; and in pts with former vs current smoking history (table). The median OS was numerically similar between patients with vs without a history of CNS metastases.

Conclusions

In the first report of survival in an EAP pt population treated with sotorasib, the median OS was similar to that observed in trials. The difference in median OS was minimal in pts with or without a history of CNS metastases at baseline.

Abstract

Background

KRASG12C mutations occur in ∼14% of NSCLC adenocarcinomas. Adagrasib (ada), a KRASG12C inhibitor, was selected for favorable properties, including long half-life (23 h), dose-dependent pharmacokinetics, and central nervous system penetration. In the KRYSTAL-1 registrational phase II Cohort A, ada showed clinical activity with manageable tolerability in patients (pts) with previously treated KRASG12C-mutated NSCLC.

Methods

Pts with previously treated KRASG12C-mutated NSCLC received ada 600 mg orally BID. Study objectives included objective response rate [ORR], progression-free survival [PFS], overall survival [OS], safety and exploratory correlative analyses. An exploratory analysis of clinical response for pts with detectable circulating tumor (ct) DNA at baseline, cycle 2 day 1, and cycle 4 day 1 (C4D1), who comprise the mutation allele frequency clearance (MAFC)-evaluable population, was also performed; KRASG12C ctDNA was assessed by digital droplet polymerase chain reaction.

Results

At data cutoff, 15 Oct 2021, Cohort A included 116 pts (median follow-up 12.9 months): median age 64 years, 56% female, median 2 prior systemic therapies. ORR by blinded independent central review (BICR) was 42.9%, disease control rate 79.5%, median PFS 6.5 months (95% CI 4.7–8.4) and, with longer follow-up (cutoff 15 Jan 2022), median OS 12.6 months (95% CI 9.2–19.2). Any grade treatment-related adverse events (TRAEs) occurred in 97% of pts (most commonly [>40%] diarrhea [63%], nausea [62%], vomiting [47%], and fatigue [41%]), and Grade 3–4 TRAEs in 43% (most commonly [≥5%] serum lipase increase [6%] and anemia [5%]). Two grade 5 TRAEs occurred; 8 (7%) TRAEs led to discontinuation. In MAFC-evaluable pts (n = 35), ORR by BICR was 60% (21/35) and all responses correlated with MAFC >90% by C4D1.

Conclusions

Ada showed promising efficacy and manageable tolerability in previously treated pts with KRASG12C-mutated NSCLC. Additional analyses are needed to further evaluate whether clinical response with ada correlates with MAFC in ctDNA. A phase III trial evaluating ada monotherapy vs docetaxel in previously treated pts with KRASG12C-mutated NSCLC is ongoing (NCT04685135).

Abstract

Background

We have recently demonstrated that current heavy smokers with >20 pack-year (PY) smoking history (median, 48.8, IQR, 31.6–57.0 PY) and non-heavy smokers (<20 PY; median, 11.4; IQR, 7.3–14.4 PY) have about 40- and 10-times higher risk of lung cancer, respectively (JAMA-Oncol. 2022; 8:1428–1437). In the current study, we examined the magnitude of the graded risk increase associated with PY of smoking among current smokers.

Methods

Of the 2505 community-dwelling older current smokers (mean age, 73 ± 5.7 years, 69% women, 17% African American) in the Cardiovascular Health Study (CHS), 1973 were never-smokers. The 532 current smokers were categorized based on PY smoking into: <20 (n = 95), 20–39 (n = 157), 40–59 (n = 181) and ≥60 (n = 94). Cause-specific HR (95% CI) for incident lung during 23 years of follow-up were estimated for the 4 groups (reference: never-smokers) based on Cox regression model, adjusting age, sex, race and competing risk of death.

Results

Incident lung cancer occurred in 0.5% of never smokers, and 5.0%, 14.6%, 17.7% and 16.0% of those with <20, 20–39, 40–59, and ≥60 PY smoking history, respectively. Compared with never smokers, cause-specific HRs (95% CIs) for incident lung cancer in the 4 groups with <20, 20–39, 40–59, and ≥60 PY smoking history were 9.73 (3.27–28.99), 30.33 (14.25–64.53), 42.97 (20.76–88.94), and 46.02 (20.08–105.48), respectively.

Conclusions

The risk of lung cancer among current smokers with <20 PY smoking for whom low-dose computed tomography screening is not recommended is high, but the risk was 3 and 4 times higher in those 20–39 and 40–59 PY, but plateaued for those with ≥60 PY. This study underscores the importance of smoking abstinence and early cessation.

Abstract

Background

The incorporation of immunotherapy (IT) with immune-checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) into clinical practice has represented a major breakthrough in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) treatment, particularly in cases where the cancer has no druggable genetic alterations. The human histocompatibility complex (HLA-1) is essential for antigen presentation capability and immune response. Here we evaluate HLA-1 and other immune-related markers as potential predictive factors of response to ICI in NSCLC.

Methods

We evaluated the immunophenotype in a cohort of 140 metastatic NSCLC patients who received treatment with ICI based regimens for metastatic setting at ICO Badalona from 2014 to 2019. We profiled the expression levels by immunohistochemistry (IHC) of HLA-1, and other immune-related markers including CD73, CD8, and PD-L1 (Ventana SP263) from formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE) human tissue samples. We evaluated the response and clinical outcomes to ICI. The Chi-Square test for categorical variables and Kaplan Meier method for survival analysis were performed.

Results

In our cohort of 140 patients: 86% males and 14% females, 63% were lung adenocarcinomas (LuAD) and 37% squamous cell carcinoma (SCC). They received IT treatment as a 1st line (29%), 2nd (46%), and 3rd or further lines (25%). PD-L1≥50% was present in 25% of cases. 67 patients were evaluable for HLA-1 at the moment of the analysis. Our work reveals that ∼45% of NSCLC in our cohort express low staining levels of HLA-1 (down regulation or total absence) compared to normal/high staining (55%). Those patients present worse clinical outcomes: mPFS to IT 9.1 (6.5–20.2) vs 21 (13.9-NR) months (p-value 0.028), respectively. We also report that HLA-1 is co-expressed with PD-L1 (p <0.005), regardless of histological subtype.

Conclusions

Down-regulation of HLA-1 expression is a mechanism of immune-evasion and affects a subset of NSCLC, which abrogates the response to ICI. HLA-1 IHC is an emerging immunomarker in NSCLC and predictor of response to ICI. In addition, we observed that HLA-1 is co-expressed with PD-L1 and represents a surrogate marker of immune-inflamed phenotype which might predict better outcomes to PD(L)-1 blockade.

Abstract

Background

Neoadj chemoimmunotherapy (IO) treatment (tx) without adj tx has shown impressive DFS outcomes but the role of adj IO after neoadj IO is unclear. LCMC3, an open-label, single-arm ph II study of neoadj atezo (anti–PD-L1) with optional adj atezo in patients (pts) with early-stage non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Here we report updated DFS, OS and safety in pts who received adj atezo vs pts who did not.

Methods

Eligible pts aged ≥18 y had resectable stage IB-IIIA or select IIIB NSCLC and ECOG PS 0-1. Pts received neoadj atezo 1200 mg IV for ≤2 cycles (Days 1 and 22) followed by surgery (Day 40 ± 10). Pts without progression were offered the option to receive adj atezo every 3 weeks for ≤12 months. The primary endpoint was MPR rate (≤10% viable tumor cells at surgery) in pts without EGFR/ALK mutations. Exploratory endpoints included DFS and OS. Safety was assessed during the adj phase.

Results

Data cutoff was Oct 21, 2022. The primary efficacy population (PEP) was 137 pts without EGFR/ALK alterations who had surgery and MPR assessment. The updated 3-y DFS and OS rate for the entire group was 72% and 82%, for stage I/II was 75% and 82%, and for stage III was 68% and 81%, respectively. In the PEP, 53 pts (39%) received adj atezo and 84 (61%) did not. While not randomized, these groups were clinically well balanced. The 3-y DFS rate was 83% with adj atezo vs 64% without adj atezo (HR, 0.43; 95% CI: 0.21, 0.90; P = 0.025). In pts without MPR (n = 108) 3-y DFS for adj atezo vs without adj atezo was 80% vs 62% (HR, 0.48; 95% CI: 0.20, 1.12; P = 0.088) and 3-y OS was 87% vs 75% (HR, 0.49; 95% CI: 0.17, 1.46; P = 0.202). In the adj atezo safety population (n = 57), there were 11 treatment-related adverse events (19%; Gr 3/4, 16%) leading to discontinuation of adj atezo.

Conclusions

This exploratory analysis revealed that LCMC3 pts with resectable NSCLC who received adj atezo had improved DFS and showed a trend toward improved OS vs pts who did not receive adj atezo. Furthermore, the non-MPR subgroup had the same trend toward improved DFS and OS with adj atezo vs pts who did not receive adj atezo. Adj atezo was well tolerated, with no new safety concerns. These data suggest that adding adj IO to neoadj IO may result in improved outcomes.
