Project description:BackgroundDurvalumab consolidation is associated with improved survival following concurrent chemoradiotherapy (CCRT) in patients with stage III non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Given the heterogeneity of stage III NSCLC patients, in this study we evaluated the efficacy and safety of durvalumab in the real-world setting.MethodUnresectable stage III NSCLC patients were retrospectively studied: one cohort received CCRT, another had CCRT-durvalumab. Primary endpoints were progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS), secondary endpoints were relapse rate and safety. In CCRT-durvalumab cohort, association between blood markers with survival and pneumonitis risk were analyzed.ResultsA total of 84 patients were enrolled: 45 received CCRT, and 39 received CCRT-durvalumab. Median PFS was 17.5 months for CCRT-durvalumab and 8.9 months for CCRT-alone (HR 0.47, p = 0.038). Median OS was not-reached for CCRT-durvalumab and 22.3 months for CCRT-alone (HR 0.35, p = 0.024). Both EGFR-positive and wild-type (WT) patients had numerically improved PFS with durvalumab consolidation compared to CCRT-alone, 17.5 versus 10.9 months and 11.8 versus 6.63 months, respectively (interaction p-value = 0.608). Grade 2+ pneumonitis was detected in 25% of patients in the durvalumab cohort. Most pneumonitis occurred at 3.5 weeks after durvalumab initiation. Baseline neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) ≥ 3 and ≥5 were associated with shorter PFS with durvalumab. Week 6 platelet-lymphocyte-ratio ≥ 180 was associated with a lower risk of pneumonitis.ConclusionIn this real-world study, durvalumab consolidation post CCRT was associated with a statistically significant improvement in PFS and OS. Effect of durvalumab on PFS was not modified by EGFR status. Active surveillance for pneumonitis is crucial. Baseline NLR may help to predict the benefit of treatment with durvalumab.

Project description:PurposeThe phase III PACIFIC trial compared durvalumab with placebo in patients with unresectable, stage III non-small-cell lung cancer and no disease progression after concurrent chemoradiotherapy. Consolidation durvalumab was associated with significant improvements in the primary end points of overall survival (OS; stratified hazard ratio [HR], 0.68; 95% CI, 0.53 to 0.87; P = .00251) and progression-free survival (PFS [blinded independent central review; RECIST v1.1]; stratified HR, 0.52; 95% CI, 0.42 to 0.65; P < .0001), with manageable safety. We report updated, exploratory analyses of survival, approximately 5 years after the last patient was randomly assigned.MethodsPatients with WHO performance status 0 or 1 (any tumor programmed cell death-ligand 1 status) were randomly assigned (2:1) to durvalumab (10 mg/kg intravenously; administered once every 2 weeks for 12 months) or placebo, stratified by age, sex, and smoking history. Time-to-event end point analyses were performed using stratified log-rank tests. Medians and landmark survival rates were estimated using the Kaplan-Meier method.ResultsSeven hundred and nine of 713 randomly assigned patients received durvalumab (473 of 476) or placebo (236 of 237). As of January 11, 2021 (median follow-up, 34.2 months [all patients]; 61.6 months [censored patients]), updated OS (stratified HR, 0.72; 95% CI, 0.59 to 0.89; median, 47.5 v 29.1 months) and PFS (stratified HR, 0.55; 95% CI, 0.45 to 0.68; median, 16.9 v 5.6 months) remained consistent with the primary analyses. Estimated 5-year rates (95% CI) for durvalumab and placebo were 42.9% (38.2 to 47.4) versus 33.4% (27.3 to 39.6) for OS and 33.1% (28.0 to 38.2) versus 19.0% (13.6 to 25.2) for PFS.ConclusionThese updated analyses demonstrate robust and sustained OS and durable PFS benefit with durvalumab after chemoradiotherapy. An estimated 42.9% of patients randomly assigned to durvalumab remain alive at 5 years and 33.1% of patients randomly assigned to durvalumab remain alive and free of disease progression, establishing a new benchmark for standard of care in this setting.

Project description:Chemoradiotherapy followed by consolidation durvalumab (CCRT+D) improves survival in patients with stage III non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC). We compared recurrence patterns and survival in the CCRT+D and CCRT cohorts. We conducted a multicenter, retrospective study in Japan. Patients who received CCRT for stage III NSCLC were included in this study. Of 178 eligible patients, 136 were in the CCRT+D and 42 were in the CCRT cohorts. Locoregional recurrence (LR), LR plus distant metastases (DM), and DM were observed in 20.6%, 8.8%, 27.9% of the CCRT+D, and 26.2%, 16.7% and 33.3% of the CCRT cohorts, respectively. In-field recurrence was the most common LR pattern in both cohorts. Squamous cell carcinoma and PD-L1 expression < 1%, and female sex and EGFR mutations were significantly associated with an increased risk of LR and DM. In patients with any risk factors for LR, the incidence of LR was similar in the CCRT+D and CCRT (39.5% vs 45.5%). The 24 month progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) were 40.3% and 69.4% in the CCRT+D and 24.7% and 61.0% in the CCRT cohorts, respectively. Poor performance status and no consolidation durvalumab were significantly associated with shorter PFS. There was a significant difference in PFS between the CCRT+D and CCRT in the propensity score-matched cohort (HR = 0.51, P = 0.005). In conclusion, consolidation durvalumab decreased both LR and DM, and significantly improved PFS. However, in-field recurrence was still a major problem, as well as DM.

Project description:PurposeConcurrent chemoradiotherapy (CCRT) followed by durvalumab consolidation for up to 12 months is the standard of care for patients with unresectable stage III non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). However, exactly when to initiate durvalumab therapy after chemoradiation completion remains unknown. We evaluated the efficacy and safety of durvalumab, administered immediately after CCRT completion, for patients with unresectable stage III NSCLC.Patients and methodsThis study was a prospective, single-arm, open-label phase II clinical trial. Patients without disease progression after definitive CCRT (two cycles of platinum-based doublet chemotherapy with 60 Gy/30 Fr radiotherapy) received durvalumab (every 2 weeks for up to 12 months) from the next day (up to 5 days) after the final radiation dose. The primary endpoint was the 1-year progression-free survival (PFS) from registration before the start of CCRT.ResultsFrom January 2020 to August 2020, 47 of 50 enrolled patients were evaluable for treatment efficacy and safety. The 1-year PFS from registration was 75.0% [60% confidence interval (CI), 69.0-80.0 and 95% CI, 59.4-85.3]. The objective response rate throughout the study treatment and median PFS from registration were 78.7% and 14.2 months (95% CI, 13.4 to not reached), respectively. Grade 3/4 pneumonitis and febrile neutropenia were each 4.3%.ConclusionsOur study met the primary endpoint. The incidence of pneumonitis was similar to that of a Japanese subset in the PACIFIC study. Our data support the efficacy and safety of durvalumab administered immediately after the completion of CCRT for patients with unresectable stage III NSCLC.

Project description:BackgroundImmune-related adverse events (irAEs) have been found to predict PD-L1 inhibitor efficacy in metastatic NSCLC. However, the relation of irAEs to clinical outcome for nonmetastatic NSCLC has remained unknown.MethodsIn this multicenter prospective study of Stage III NSCLC treated with PACIFIC regimen, the relation of irAEs to PFS was evaluated by 8-week landmark analysis to minimise lead-time bias as well as by multivariable analysis adjusted for baseline factors. irAEs were categorised as mild or nonmild according to whether they were treated with systemic steroid.ResultsMedian PFS was 16.0 months, not reached, and 9.7 months for patients without (85 cases) or with mild (21 cases) or nonmild (21 cases) irAEs, respectively. Multivariable analysis indicated that nonmild irAEs were associated with poor PFS, with HRs of 3.86 (95% CI, 1.31-11.38) compared with no irAEs and 11.58 (95% CI, 2.11-63.63) compared with mild irAEs. This pattern was consistent after irAE grade, the number of durvalumab doses and immune profiles (PD-L1 score, CD8+ tumour-infiltrating lymphocyte density, and tumour mutation burden) were taken into consideration.ConclusionsThe development of mild irAEs might predict a better survival outcome, whereas immunosuppressive steroid-treated irAEs were associated with a worse outcome, regardless of baseline clinical and immune profiles.

Project description:We recruited 50 patients with unresectable stage III NSCLC who received CCRT between March 2020 and March 2021. Durvalumab consolidation (DC) was administered to patients (n = 23) without progression after CCRT and programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1) ≥ 1%. Blood samples were collected before (C0) and after CCRT (C1) to calculate PBC counts and analyze CTCs. CTCs, isolated by the CD-PRIMETM system, exhibited EpCAM/CK+/CD45- phenotype in BioViewCCBSTM. At median follow-up of 27.4 months, patients with residual CTC clusters at C1 had worse median PFS than those without a detectable CTC cluster (11.0 vs. 27.8 months, p = 0.032), and this trend was noted only in the DC group (p = 0.034). Patients with high platelets at C1 (PLThi, >252 × 103/µL) had worse median PFS than those with low platelets (PLTlo) (5.9 vs. 17.1 months, p < 0.001). In multivariable analysis, PLThi and residual CTC clusters at C1 were independent risk factors for PFS, and DC group with PLThi and residual CTC clusters at C1 showed the worst median PFS (2.6 months, HR 45.16, p = 0.001), even worse than that of the CCRT alone group with PLThi (5.9 months, HR 15.39, p = 0.001). The comprehensive analysis of CTCs and PBCs before and after CCRT revealed that the clearance of CTC clusters and platelet counts at C1 might be potential biomarkers for predicting survival.

Project description:BackgroundDurvalumab as maintenance treatment after platinum-based concurrent chemoradiotherapy (cCRT) has become the standard of care in inoperable stage III non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). In this nationwide survey, we solicited members of the German Radiation Oncology Society to review the current distribution and clinical settings of durvalumab treatment after cCRT, observed side effects and summarize follow-up management.MethodsWe surveyed radiation oncology institutions in Germany via an anonymous online questionnaire sent by e-mail to all members of the German Radiation Oncology Society which agreed their willingness to participate.ResultsWe received a total of 255 responses (response rate: 18%). Of which 203 (80%) were completed and returned and thus eligible for further evaluation. The respondents work in 87 different cities and 44% in a private medical practice, 29% in university and 22% in a general hospital. Durvalumab was implemented in clinical routine by 70% of respondents. Major reasons for failed implementation in clinical practice reported by the respondents were patient's ineligibility (42%), lack of required PD-L1 status (25%), decision of medical oncologists (7%) or absence of updated German guidelines (7%). Thirty-six percent of all respondents report low (≤30%) PD-L1 testing before cCRT based on IHC assay. No respondent had applied durvalumab in less than 14 days after the completion of CRT. Severe side effects requiring hospital admission in more than 10% of all patients were reported by 12% of all respondents.ConclusionsDurvalumab maintenance is already implemented in the radiation oncology community and administered by the absolute majority of respondents. Low testing rates of PD-L1 at initial diagnosis were observed and should be considered a major barrier to universal adoption and integration in the clinical work-flow in countries with durvalumab approval restricted to PD-L1 positive patients. No respondent applies durvalumab in less than 14 days after cCRT.
