Final Report on Real-World Effectiveness of Sequential Afatinib and Osimertinib in EGFR-Positive Advanced Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer: Updated Analysis of the RESET Study.

ABSTRACT:

Purpose

This study aimed to report the final analysis of time-on-treatment (TOT) and overall survival (OS) in patients with advanced-stage epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR)+ non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) who received sequential afatinib and osimertinib and to compare the outcomes with other second-line regimens (comparator group).

Materials and methods

In this updated report, the existing medical records were reviewed and rechecked. TOT and OS were updated and analyzed according to clinical features using the Kaplan-Meier method and log-rank test. TOT and OS were compared with those of the comparator group, in which most patients received pemetrexed-based treatments. A multivariable Cox proportional hazard model was used to evaluate features that could affect survival outcomes.

Results

The median observation time was 31.0 months. The follow-up period was extended to 20 months. A total of 401 patients who received first-line afatinib were analyzed (166 with T790M+ and second-line osimertinib, and 235 with unproven T790M and other second-line agents). Median TOTs on afatinib and osimertinib were 15.0 months (95% confidence interval [CI], 14.0 to 16.1) and 11.9 months (95% CI, 8.9 to 14.6), respectively. The median OS in the osimertinib group was 54.3 months (95% CI, 46.7 to 61.9), much longer than that in the comparator group. In patients who received osimertinib, the OS was longest with Del19+ (median, 59.1; 95% CI, 48.7 to 69.5).

Conclusion

This is one of the largest real-world studies reporting the encouraging activity of sequential afatinib and osimertinib in Asian patients with EGFR+ NSCLC who acquired the T790M mutation, particularly Del19+.

Project description:BackgroundData from clinical trials and real-world studies show that afatinib is effective in treating non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) harboring activating mutations in the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) gene. A previous analysis of patients enrolled in the Korean Academy of Tuberculosis and Respiratory Disease (KATRD) EGFR cohort showed that first-line afatinib was well tolerated and effectiveness results were encouraging. At the time of the previous analysis, survival data were not mature. Here we briefly present updated survival data from the cohort.MethodsThe study was a retrospective, multicenter (15 sites) review of electronic records of Korean adult patients (aged >20 years) with advanced EGFR mutation-positive NSCLC who initiated first-line afatinib (N=421). Progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) were evaluated using Kaplan-Meier survival curves.ResultsOverall, median PFS was 20.2 months and median OS was 48.6 months. OS rates at 36 and 60 months were 60.1% and 42.3%, respectively. Presence vs. absence of baseline brain metastases was associated with significantly reduced median PFS (14.9 vs. 28.0 months; P<0.001) and median OS (32.2 vs. 65.6 months; P<0.001). The presence of common baseline EGFR mutations (Del19, L858R) was associated with significantly prolonged median OS (49.6 vs. 30.1 months; P=0.017). In patients stratified by the presence/absence of T790M EGFR mutation, the T790M mutation was associated with significantly reduced median PFS (P=0.0005) but there was no significant difference between groups in survival (P=0.263). There were no significant differences in PFS or OS for patients stratified by afatinib dose reduction or by age group (<70 vs. ≥70 years).ConclusionsAfatinib was effective in Korean patients with EGFR mutation-positive NSCLC with median OS over 4 years. The presence of baseline brain metastases and/or uncommon EGFR mutations were associated with reduced survival. In the absence of baseline brain metastases, median OS was more than 5 years.

Project description:BackgroundEpidermal growth factor receptor-mutated (EGFR+) non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients failing tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKI) can benefit from next-line targeted therapies, but implementation is challenging.MethodsEGFR+ NSCLC patients treated with first/second-generation (1G/2G) TKI at our institution with a last follow-up after osimertinib approval (February 2016), were analyzed retrospectively, and the results compared with published data under osimertinib.ResultsA total of 207 patients received erlotinib (37%), gefitinib (16%) or afatinib (47%). The median age was 66 years, with a predominance of female (70%), never/light-smokers (69%). T790M testing was performed in 174/202 progressive cases (86%), positive in 93/174 (53%), and followed by osimertinib in 87/93 (94%). Among the 135 deceased patients, 94 (70%) received subsequent systemic treatment (43% chemotherapy, 39% osimertinib), while 30% died without, either before (4%) or after progression, due to rapid clinical deterioration (22%), patient refusal of further therapy (2%), or severe competing illness (2%). Lack of subsequent treatment was significantly (4.5x, p < 0.001) associated with lack of T790M testing, whose most frequent cause (in approximately 50% of cases) was also rapid clinical decline. Among the 127 consecutive patients with failure of 1G/2G TKI started after November 2015, 47 (37%) received osimertinib, with a median overall survival of 36 months versus 24 and 21 months for patients with alternative and no subsequent therapies (p = 0.003).ConclusionOsimertinib after 1G/2G TKI failure prolongs survival, but approximately 15% and 30% of patients forego molecular retesting and subsequent treatment, respectively, mainly due to rapid clinical deterioration. This is an important remediable obstacle to sequential TKI treatment for EGFR+ NSCLC. It pertains also to other actionable resistance mechanisms emerging under 1G/2G inhibitors or osimertinib, whose rate for lack of next-line therapy is similar (approximately 35% in the FLAURA/AURA3 trials), and highlights the need for closer monitoring alongside broader profiling of TKI-treated EGFR+ NSCLC in the future.
