Osimertinib as first-line therapy in advanced NSCLC: a profile of its use.

ABSTRACT: Osimertinib (Tagrisso®) is an oral, CNS-active, third-generation epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) that selectively inhibits EGFR TKI-activating mutations over wild-type EGFR in patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), including the T790M mutation that often underlies acquired resistance to earlier generation EGFR TKIs. Relative to standard of care first-generation EGFR TKIs (erlotinib or gefitinib) as first-line treatment of EGFR activating mutation-positive advanced NSCLC, osimertinib significantly prolongs median progression-free survival (PFS), with separation of the Kaplan-Meier PFS survival curves evident by the first assessment timepoint of 6 weeks. Osimertinib prolongs PFS relative to standard EGFR TKI therapy in all prespecified groups, irrespective of the EGFR mutation present at study entry and presence of CNS metastases at study entry. Overall survival data are not yet mature. Osimertinib has a generally manageable tolerability profile.

Project description:The impact of combining epidermal growth factor receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitors (EGFR-TKIs) and chemotherapy as first-line therapy for patients with advanced non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) remains controversial. Therefore, randomized trials that compared this combined regimen with chemotherapy or EGFR-TKIs monotherapy were included for this meta-analysis. We used published hazard ratios (HRs), if available, or derived treatment estimates from other survival data. Pooled estimates of treatment efficacy of the combined regimen in the entire unselected population and selected patients by EGFR-mutation status and smoking history were calculated. Eight trials eventually entered into this meta-analysis, including 4585 patients. Overall, the combined regimen significantly delayed disease progression (HR?=?0.81, 95% CI 0.69-0.95, P?=?0.01); subgroup analysis showed significantly higher progression free survival advantages in Asian patients (P<0.001), with sequential combination of TKIs and chemotherapy (P?=?0.02). In selected patients by EGFR-mutation, both mutation positive (HR?=?0.48, 95% CI 0.28-0.83, P?=?0.009) and negative (HR?=?0.84, 95% CI 0.72-0.98, P?=?0.02) patients gained progression free survival benefit from the combined regimen, albeit the magnitude of benefit was marginally larger in mutation positive patients (P?=?0.05). In selected patients by smoking history, never/light smokers achieved a great progression free survival benefit from the combined regimen (HR?=?0.51, 95% CI 0.35-0.74, P?=?0.0004). Unfortunately, the combined regimen had no significant impact on overall survival, irrespective of ethnicity, dose schedules or EGFR-mutation status. Severe anorexia (RR?=?2.01, 95% CI 1.11-3.63; P?=?0.02) and diarrhea (RR?=?2.70, 95% CI 1.94-3.76; P<0.001) were more frequent in the combined regimen arm. This strategy of combining EGFR-TKIs and chemotherapy deserved to be considered in the future, although it is not approved for advanced NSCLC at the moment.

Project description:IntroductionAlthough programmed cell death protein 1 and programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1) blockade in combination with platinum-doublet chemotherapy has become a mainstay of first-line treatment for advanced NSCLC, factors associated with efficacy of chemoimmunotherapy (CIT) are not well characterized.MethodsIn this multicenter retrospective analysis, clinicopathologic and genomic data were collected from patients with advanced NSCLC (lacking sensitizing genomic alterations in EGFR and ALK) and evaluated with clinical outcomes to first-line CIT.ResultsAmong 1285 patients treated with CIT, a worsening performance status and increasing derived neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio in the blood were associated with a significantly reduced objective response rate (ORR), median progression-free survival (mPFS), and median overall survival (mOS). With increasing PD-L1 tumor proportion scores of less than 1%, 1% to 49%, 50% to 89%, and greater than or equal to 90%, there was a progressive improvement in ORR (32.7% versus 37.5% versus 51.6% versus 61.7%, p < 0.001), mPFS (5.0 versus 6.1 versus 6.8 versus 13.0 mo, p < 0.001), and generally mOS (12.9 versus 14.6 versus 34.7 versus 23.1 mo, p = 0.009), respectively. Of 789 NSCLCs with comprehensive genomic data, NSCLCs with a tumor mutational burden (TMB) greater than or equal to the 90th percentile had an improved ORR (53.5% versus 36.4%, p = 0.004), mPFS (10.8 versus 5.5 mo, p < 0.001), and mOS (29.2 versus 13.1 mo, p < 0.001), compared with those with a TMB less than the 90th percentile. In all-comers with nonsquamous NSCLC, the presence of an STK11, KEAP1, or SMARCA4 mutation was associated with significantly worse ORR, mPFS, and mOS to CIT (all p < 0.05); this was also observed in the KRAS-mutant subgroup of NSCLCs with co-occurring mutations in STK11, KEAP1, or SMARCA4 (all p < 0.05). In KRAS wild-type NSCLC, KEAP1 and SMARCA4 mutations were associated with a significantly shorter mPFS and mOS to CIT (all p < 0.05), but STK11 mutation status had no significant impact on mPFS (p = 0.16) or mOS (p = 0.38).ConclusionsIn advanced NSCLC, better patient performance status, low derived neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio, increasing PD-L1 expression, a very high TMB, and STK11/KEAP1/SMARCA4 wild-type status are associated with improved clinical outcomes to first-line CIT.

Project description:Background & objective"Anti-angiogenetic drugs plus chemotherapy" (anti-angio-chemo) and "immune checkpoint inhibitors plus chemotherapy" (ICI-chemo) are superior to traditional chemotherapy in the first-line treatment of patients with advanced non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC). However, in the absence of a direct comparison of ICI-chemo with anti-angio-chemo, the superior one between them has not been decided, and the benefit of adding anti-angiogenetic agents to ICI-chemo remains controversial. This study aimed to investigate the role of antiangiogenic agents for advanced NSCLC in the era of immunotherapy.MethodsEligible randomized controlled trials (RCTs) comparing chemotherapy versus therapeutic regimens involving ICIs or anti-angiogenetic drugs were included. Outcomes included progression-free survival (PFS), overall survival (OS), objective response rate (ORR), and rate of grade 3-4 toxicity assessment. R-4.3.1 was utilized to perform the analysis.ResultsA total of 54 studies with a sample size of 25,046 were finally enrolled. "Atezolizumab + Bevacizumab + Chemotherapy" significantly improved the ORR compared with "Atezolizumab + Chemotherapy" (Odds ratio (OR) = 2.73, 95% confidence interval (CI): 1.27-5.87). The trend also favored "Atezolizumab + Bevacizumab + Chemotherapy" in PFS and OS (hazard ratio (HR) = 0.71, 95% CI: 0.39-1.31; HR = 0.94, 95% CI: 0.77-1.16, respectively). In addition, "Pembrolizumab + Chemotherapy" and "Camrelizumab + Chemotherapy" significantly prolonged the PFS compared to "Bevacizumab + Chemotherapy" (HR = 0.65, 95% CI: 0.46-0.92; HR = 0.63, 95% CI: 0.41-0.97; respectively). Meanwhile, "Pembrolizumab + Chemotherapy" and "Sintilimab + Chemotherapy" yielded more OS benefits than "Bevacizumab + Chemotherapy" (HR = 0.69, 95% CI: 0.56-0.83; HR = 0.64, 95%CI: 0.46-0.91; respectively). Scheme between "Atezolizumab + Bevacizumab + Chemotherapy" and "Atezolizumab + Chemotherapy" made no significant difference (OR = 1.18, 95%CI: 0.56-2.42) concerning the rate of grade 3-4 toxicity. It seemed that ICI-chemo yielded more improvement in quality-adjusted life-year (QALY) than "Bevacizumab + Chemotherapy" in cost-effectiveness analysis.ConclusionOur results suggest that ICI-chemo is associated with potentially longer survival, better cost-effectiveness outcomes, and comparable safety profiles than anti-angio-chemo. Also, adding bevacizumab to ICI-chemo seemed to provide additional therapeutic benefits without adding treatment burden. Our findings would supplement the current standard of care and help the design of future clinical trials for the first-line treatment of patients with advanced NSCLC.
