Rationale and Design for a Multicenter, Phase II Study of Durvalumab Plus Concurrent Radiation Therapy in Locally Advanced Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer: The DOLPHIN Study (WJOG11619L).

ABSTRACT: Durvalumab (anti-programmed cell death ligand-1) administration after concurrent chemoradiotherapy (cCRT) has improved the survival of patients with unresectable, locally advanced (LA) stage III non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Some patients are unable to complete cCRT and cannot receive immunotherapy due to poor performance status based on adverse events after cCRT. Immunotherapy plays an important role in anti-programmed cell death ligand-1 (PD-L1)-positive advanced NSCLC and is replacing chemotherapy. In addition, radiotherapy and immunotherapy have been reported to have a synergistic effect. This Phase II, multicenter study (DOLPHIN, WJOG11619L, JapicCTI-194840) is designed to assess the efficacy and safety of durvalumab plus concurrent curative radiation therapy for PD-L1-positive unresectable LA-NSCLC without chemotherapy. Unresectable LA stage III NSCLC patients aged 20 years or older with a World Health Organization/Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status (PS) of 0 or 1 and PD-L1 positivity are enrolled. The patients will receive curative radiation therapy (60 Gy) plus durvalumab 10 mg/kg every 2 weeks (q2w) for up to 12 months until there is evidence of disease progression (PD) or unacceptable toxicity. The primary endpoint is the 12-month progression-free survival rate as assessed by an independent central review. The secondary endpoints are progression-free survival, overall survival, objective response rate, treatment completion rate, and safety. Recruitment began in September 2019.

Project description:PurposeInduction chemotherapy plus concurrent chemoradiotherapy and concurrent chemoradiotherapy alone are both standard treatment regimens for managing locally advanced nasopharyngeal carcinoma. However, the results of comparisons between them in clinical trials vary. Therefore, we designed this meta-analysis to illustrate their advantages and disadvantages in patients with locally advanced nasopharyngeal carcinoma.MethodsWe thoroughly searched the PubMed, EMBASE, and Cochrane Library databases and then merged the effect indicators of hazard ratios and risk ratios using RevMan 5.1.ResultsSeven randomized controlled trials totaling 2,319 patients were included in our research. The synthesized results showed that induction chemotherapy plus concurrent chemoradiotherapy improved overall survival (HR = 0.75, 95% CI: 0.63-0.89, P = 0.001), progression-free survival (HR = 0.69, 95% CI: 0.60-0.80, P < 0.001), distant metastasis-free survival (HR = 0.65, 95% CI: 0.53-0.80, P < 0.001) and locoregional recurrence-free survival (HR = 0.68 95%, CI: 0.54-0.86, P = 0.001) versus concurrent chemoradiotherapy alone. It also increased the risk of anemia, thrombocytopenia, and neutropenia during concurrent chemoradiotherapy. However, the incidence of leukopenia and mucositis was similar in induction chemotherapy and induction chemotherapy plus concurrent chemoradiotherapy. Furthermore, the subgroup analysis showed better survival outcomes with induction chemotherapy plus concurrent chemoradiotherapy than with concurrent chemoradiotherapy alone in the triweekly cisplatin subgroup (all P < 0.01), whereas induction chemotherapy plus concurrent chemoradiotherapy could only improve progression-free survival and locoregional recurrence-free survival in the weekly cisplatin subgroup (HR = 0.78, P = 0.02; and HR = 0.66, P = 0.03, respectively).ConclusionsInduction chemotherapy plus concurrent chemoradiotherapy improved survival outcomes in patients with locally advanced nasopharyngeal carcinoma versus concurrent chemoradiotherapy. For the weekly cisplatin regimen subgroup, it did not improve remote control or overall survival versus concurrent chemoradiotherapy alone, warranting further clarification.

Project description:BackgroundConcurrent chemoradiotherapy is the standard of care for locally advanced cervical cancer. Concurrent chemoradiotherapy with programmed blockade of the cell death-1/programmed cell death-ligand 1 pathway may promote a more immunogenic environment through increased phagocytosis, cell death, and antigen presentation, leading to enhanced immune-mediated tumor surveillance. PRIMARY OBJECTIVE:The CALLA trial is designed to determine the efficacy and safety of the programmed cell death-ligand 1 blocking antibody, durvalumab, with and following concurrent chemoradiotherapy versus concurrent chemoradiotherapy alone in women with locally advanced cervical cancer. STUDY HYPOTHESIS:Durvalumab concurrent with and following concurrent chemoradiotherapy will improve progression-free survival in patients with International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics (FIGO) 2009 stage IB2 to IVA cervical cancer compared with concurrent chemoradiotherapy alone. TRIAL DESIGN:CALLA is a phase III, randomized, multicenter, international, double-blind, placebo-controlled study. Patients will be randomized 1:1 to receive either durvalumab (1500?mg intravenously (IV)) or placebo every 4 weeks for 24 cycles. All patients will receive external beam radiotherapy with cisplatin (40?mg/m2) IV or carboplatin (area under the curve 2) IV once a week for 5 weeks, followed by image-guided brachytherapy. MAJOR INCLUSION/EXCLUSION CRITERIA:The study will enroll immunotherapy-naïve adult patients with histologically confirmed cervical adenocarcinoma, cervical squamous, or adenosquamous carcinoma FIGO 2009 stages IB2-IIB node positive and stage IIIA-IVA with any node stage. Patients will have had no prior definitive surgical, radiation, or systemic therapy for cervical cancer. PRIMARY ENDPOINT:The primary endpoint is progression-free survival (assessed by the investigator according to Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors v1.1, histopathological confirmation of local tumor progression or death). SAMPLE SIZE:Approximately 714 patients will be randomized 1:1 to receive either durvalumab + concurrent chemoradiotherapy or placebo + concurrent chemoradiotherapy. ESTIMATED DATES FOR COMPLETING ACCRUAL AND PRESENTING RESULTS:Patient enrollment is continuing globally with an estimated completion date of April 2024. TRIAL REGISTRATION:NCT03830866.
