1529MO - The genomic landscape of small cell lung cancer in never smoking patients
- Michael Oh (Los Angeles, United States of America)
Abstract
Background
Small cell lung cancer (SCLC) predominantly develops in patients with significant smoking history, but 6-8% of patients in recent SCLC datasets have no tobacco exposure. Prior reports have suggested that SCLC in never smoking patients may have unique genomic traits.
Methods
We retrospectively analyzed records from SCLC patients reporting “never smoking” (NS, n = 54) or “current/former smoking” (C/FS, n = 609) status. Tumors were sequenced with the Tempus xT assay, including a targeted DNA panel (595-648 genes) and whole exome capture RNA-seq. Tumor immune cell infiltration was estimated from RNA expression data. PD-L1 positivity was defined by tumor expression > 1% using 22C3 pharmDx IHC. Statistical significance was assessed with Pearson’s chi-squared test or Fisher’s exact test, using a threshold of p < 0.05 or false discovery rate-adjusted q < 0.05.
Results
Compared with CF/S patients, NS patients were more likely to be female (70% vs 55%, p = 0.031). Tumors of NS patients had a lower prevalence of
Conclusions
The mutational landscape of SCLC in NS patients significantly differs from that of C/FS patients. Tumors of NS patients were more likely to harbor mutations in oncogenic drivers – such as

930MO - PD-L1 expression and outcomes of pembrolizumab and placebo in completely resected stage IB-IIIA NSCLC: Subgroup analysis of PEARLS/KEYNOTE-091
- Solange Peters (Lausanne, Switzerland)
Abstract
Background
In the PEARLS/KEYNOTE-091 study of completely resected stage IB (T ≥4 cm) to IIIA NSCLC (AJCC v7) following ≤4 cycles of adjuvant chemotherapy as recommended per local guidelines (NCT02504372), pembrolizumab (pembro) significantly prolonged DFS vs placebo in the ITT population at the second interim analysis (IA2) (HR 0.76;
Methods
Eligible patients were randomized 1:1 to pembro 200 mg or placebo Q3W for 18 doses. PD-L1 TPS <1% vs 1-49% vs ≥50% was a stratification factor. Dual primary end points were DFS in the ITT and TPS ≥50% populations. Data are from IA2 (median follow-up, 35.6 months).
Results
Of the 1177 randomized patients, PD-L1 TPS was <1% in 39.5%, 1-49% in 32.2%, and ≥50% in 28.3%. Baseline characteristics were generally balanced between the pembro and placebo arms in the ITT and TPS ≥50% populations and were generally similar in the ITT and TPS ≥50% populations. Grade 3-5 AE rates for pembro vs placebo were 34.1% vs 25.8% in the ITT and 37.8% vs 25.0% in the TPS ≥50% population; AEs led to discontinuation in 19.8% vs 5.9% and 23.2% vs 6.7%. Pembro improved DFS in the TPS ≥50%, 1-49%, and <1% subgroups (Table). *Dual primary end point; P = 0.14.
PD-L1 TPS Pembro Pbo ≥50% N = 168 N = 165 Median (95% CI), mo NR (44.3-NR) NR (35.8-NR) Estimates at 12 / 24 / 36 mo, % 79.5 / 67.9 / 65.9 74.5 / 67.1 / 57.6 HR (95% CI) 0.82 (0.57-1.18)* Median (95% CI), mo 44.2 (34.9-NR) 31.3 (22.5-NR) Estimates at 12 / 24 / 36 mo, % 80.5 / 65.4 / 54.6 68.2 / 54.3 / 44.8 HR (95% CI) 0.67 (0.48-0.92) Median (95% CI), mo 47.4 (35.0-NR) 34.9 (25.5-NR) Estimates at 12 / 24 / 36 mo, % 76.6 / 68.5 / 55.5 72.3 / 58.3 / 48.8 HR (95% CI) 0.78 (0.58-1.03)
Conclusions
As expected, median and long-term DFS estimates in the pembro arm were numerically improved in the PD-L1 TPS ≥50% subgroup vs the 1-49% and <1% subgroups. The lack of statistically significant benefit for pembro in the TPS ≥50% population at IA2 likely results from placebo overperformance in this population and a smaller population size. DFS in the PD-L1-selected populations will be tested at the next IA. Overall, data support the benefit of pembro for completely resected stage IB-IIIA NSCLC and, if recommended, adjuvant chemotherapy, regardless of PD-L1 expression.

LBA71 - First-line nivolumab (NIVO) plus ipilimumab (IPI) vs chemotherapy (chemo) in patients (pts) with unresectable malignant pleural mesothelioma (uMPM): 4-year update from CheckMate 743
- Gerard Zalcman (Paris, France)
Abstract
Background
In the randomized, phase 3 CheckMate 743 study (NCT02899299), NIVO + IPI significantly prolonged OS vs chemo in pts with uMPM. Identifying pts with uMPM who could benefit from immunotherapy is an unmet need. Here, we report clinical results and exploratory biomarker analyses from CheckMate 743 at 4y minimum follow-up (min f/u).
Methods
Pts with previously untreated uMPM, stratified by histology and sex, were randomized 1:1 to receive NIVO (3 mg/kg Q2W) + IPI (1 mg/kg Q6W) for up to 2 y, or chemo (Q3W) for ≤ 6 cycles. Primary endpoint (EP) was OS; secondary EPs included PFS and ORR; exploratory EPs were safety and biomarker analyses. OS was assessed by baseline (BL) soluble mesothelin (sMESO) levels (high, mid, low by ELISA-based assay) and MPM-specific tumor suppressor mutations (
Results
At 47.5-month min f/u (database lock [DBL] 6 May 2022), NIVO + IPI continued to show OS benefit vs chemo with 4y OS rates of 16.8% vs 10.7%; 4y PFS rates were 9.0% vs 0%, respectively (Table). High (vs low or mid) BL sMESO level was associated with shorter OS in both arms; NIVO + IPI showed a trend of improved OS vs chemo across BL sMESO levels (HRs [95% CI], high: 0.72 [0.53–0.98], mid: 0.77 [0.56–1.06], low: 0.77 [0.56–1.05], respectively). OS favored NIVO + IPI vs chemo for both wild-type (HRs = 0.67–0.72) and MPM-specific tumor suppressor mutation subgroups (HRs = 0.41–0.55), except Efficacy outcomes with NIVO + IPI vs chemo aPer blinded independent central review;bCalculated in patients with a response (NIVO + IPI, n = 119; chemo, n = 134);cAll pts either had disease progression or were censored by month 39.

Conclusions
With 4y min f/u, NIVO + IPI continued to provide long-term, durable OS benefit vs chemo in pts with uMPM. No new safety signals were seen. High BL sMESO levels were prognostic for poor OS. OS benefit with NIVO + IPI vs chemo was generally observed regardless of MPM-specific tumor suppressor mutations.

- Kiyotaka Yoh (Kashiwa, Japan)
Abstract
Background
The JIPANG study has demonstrated pemetrexed/cisplatin (Pem/Cis) had a similar efficacy on recurrence-free survival (RFS) to vinorelbine/cisplatin (Vnr/Cis) with a better tolerability as postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy for patients with completely resected non-squamous non-small-cell lung cancer (Ns-NSCLC). Overall survival (OS) is one of secondary endpoints in this trial. The final analysis of OS in the JIPANG study is presented here. An interaction between treatment regimen and
Methods
Patients with completely resected pathological stage II-IIIA Ns-NSCLC were randomized in a 1:1 ratio to receive either Pem (500 mg/m2, day 1)/Cis (75 mg/m2, day 1) or Vnr (25 mg/m2, days 1 and 8)/Cis (80 mg/m2, day 1), and stratified according to sex, age, pathological stage,
Results
Between March 2012 and August 2016, 804 patients were randomized. Of 783 for the efficacy analysis (389 in Pem/Cis and 394 in Vnr/Cis), median age was 65/65 years; stage IIIA 52/52%; and
Conclusions
This final analysis showed that Pem/Cis had a similar efficacy to Vnr/Cis in both RFS and OS for this population. The OS with adjuvant Pem/Cis or Vnr/Cis was one of the longest observed in these population compared with the historical data, regardless of EGFR mutation status.

929MO - Platform study of neoadjuvant durvalumab (D) alone or combined with novel agents in patients (pts) with resectable, early-stage non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC): Pharmacodynamic correlates and circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) dynamics in the NeoCOAST study
- Jonathan Spicer (Montreal, Canada)
Abstract
Background
Neoadjuvant therapy with PD-(L)1 inhibitors, both as monotherapy and in combination, leads to pathological responses in resectable, early-stage NSCLC. NeoCOAST (NCT03794544) is a phase 2 study of the anti-PD-L1 monoclonal antibody (mAb) D alone or combined with the anti-CD73 mAb oleclumab (O), the anti-NKG2A mAb monalizumab (M), or the anti-STAT3 antisense oligonucleotide danvatirsen (Da) as neoadjuvant therapy.
Methods
Pts with untreated, stage I [>2 cm]–IIIA NSCLC were randomized to receive 1 cycle of D alone or in combination. The primary endpoint was investigator-assessed major pathological response (MPR) rate. In a subset of pts, treatment-induced transcriptomic changes were assessed by RNA sequencing from tumor tissue collected pre-treatment and at surgery. Using a tumor-informed method, ctDNA was analyzed pre-treatment, after treatment, and post-surgery. Molecular response (MR) is defined as ≥50% reduction in variant allelic fraction from pre-treatment.
Results
As previously reported, MPR was numerically higher in all combination arms [D+O (n=4/21, 19%), D+M (n=6/20, 30%), and D+Da (n=5/16, 31%)], compared with D monotherapy [n=3/27, 11%]. Among pts with an MPR, 2 had
Conclusions
Single cycle of D+O and D+M resulted in greater intra-tumoral immunomodulation than D alone.

932MO - Nivolumab (NIVO) plus platinum-doublet chemotherapy (chemo) versus chemo as neoadjuvant treatment for resectable non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC): Health-related quality of life (HRQoL) outcomes from CheckMate 816
- Enriqueta Felip (Barcelona, Spain)
Abstract
Background
CheckMate 816 (NCT02998528), a phase 3 study, met its primary endpoints of statistically significant and clinically meaningful improvements in event-free survival and pathological complete response with neoadjuvant NIVO + chemo vs chemo for resectable NSCLC. We present HRQoL results from the neoadjuvant treatment period.
Methods
Adults with stage IB-IIIA resectable NSCLC were randomized 1:1 to neoadjuvant NIVO 360 mg + chemo Q3W or chemo Q3W for 3 cycles. HRQoL (exploratory endpoint) was evaluated using the 3-level version of the EQ-5D (EQ-5D-3L). A mixed-effects model repeated measures analysis evaluated longitudinal changes from baseline in EQ-5D visual analogue scale (VAS; range 0 to 100) and utility index (UI; range −0.594 to 1) scores during the neoadjuvant period (week 4, week 7, and post-neoadjuvant visit 1); higher scores reflect better HRQoL.
Results
EQ-5D-3L completion rates were > 80% in both treatment arms at baseline and during the neoadjuvant period. Baseline EQ-5D-3L VAS and UI scores were consistent with UK population norms. Scores during the neoadjuvant period were generally similar to baseline for both treatment arms; there were no clinically meaningful differences between NIVO + chemo vs chemo (Table). In both treatment arms, most patients reported “no problems” for individual EQ-5D-3L dimensions (mobility, self-care, usual activities, pain/discomfort, and anxiety/depression) at baseline and during treatment. Analyses from the postsurgical period will be presented. EQ-5D-3L in the neoadjuvant period LSM, least squares mean; MID, minimal important difference.
LSM change from baseline LSM difference NIVO + chemo Chemo NIVO + chemo vs chemo Overall −0.9 −1.5 0.6 Wk 4 −0.4 −1.7 1.3 Wk 7 −1.3 −0.8 −0.6 Post-neoadjuvant visit 1 −0.8 −2.0 1.1 Overall −0.003 −0.011 0.008 Wk 4 0.012 0.001 0.011 Wk 7 −0.006 −0.004 −0.002 Post-neoadjuvant visit 1 −0.014 −0.029 0.015
Conclusions
In CheckMate 816, the addition of NIVO to neoadjuvant chemo for resectable NSCLC had no detrimental impact on HRQoL during the neoadjuvant period. These quality of life findings, along with previously reported efficacy and safety results, support the use of NIVO + chemo as neoadjuvant treatment for resectable NSCLC.

LBA50 - Analysis of pathological features and efficacy outcomes with neoadjuvant nivolumab (N) plus platinum-doublet chemotherapy (C) for resectable non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) in CheckMate 816
- Janis M. Taube (Baltimore, United States of America)
Abstract
Background
A post hoc analysis from the phase 3 CheckMate 816 study showed that residual viable tumor (RVT) in the primary tumor (PT) was associated with event-free survival (EFS) with N + C (2y EFS rates: 90%, 60%, 57%, and 39% in patients [pts] with 0–5, > 5–30, > 30–80, and > 80% RVT). Here, we report analyses in pts with or without (w/o) pathologic evidence of lymph node involvement (LN-I).
Methods
Adults with resectable NSCLC were randomized to receive N 360 mg + platinum-doublet C Q3W or C alone Q3W for 3 cycles, followed by resection. Primary endpoints were pathologic complete response (pCR) and EFS (both met). Analyses included efficacy by LN-I and assessment of prespecified histopathologic features (%RVT, regression, and necrosis) in PT and LN. Pts with LN-I could have had either 0% (pathologic evidence of completely regressed tumor) or > 0%RVT in the resected LN. A time-dependent ROC curve analysis assessed the predictive ability of %RVT in PT for 2y EFS.
Results
pCR rates were improved with N + C vs C in both pts with or w/o LN-I (table); similar EFS benefit was seen in pts with or w/o LN-I (HR: 0.69 and 0.74). In the N + C arm, pts with LN-I who had 0% RVT in both PT and LN showed the best EFS outcomes numerically, followed by those with 0% RVT in either PT or LN; those with > 0% RVT in both PT and LN showed shorter EFS (2y EFS rates: 92%, 76%, and 49%). Overall, lower %RVT and higher % regression (appears to be inversely related to RVT) was seen with N + C vs C in PT and LN; % necrosis did not differ between the treatment arms (table). In both pts with or w/o LN-I (N + C), %RVT in PT was predictive of EFS at 2y (AUC: 0.76 and 0.73).
Conclusions
These findings further support neoadjuvant N + C vs C as a novel treatment option for pts with resectable NSCLC, regardless of LN-I. %RVT in PT in pts with or w/o LN-I was associated with EFS with N + C. Further assessment of clinically relevant %RVT cutoffs to predict long-term outcomes with immunotherapy is warranted. a140 (78%) and 125 (70%) of concurrently randomized pts in N + C and C arms had path-evaluable samples from both PT and LN.
