Abstract 1497
Background
We report an analysis of Asian vs non-Asian pts with CRZ-refractory, ALK+ NSCLC from ALTA (NCT02094573).
Methods
Pts were stratified by presence of baseline (BL) CNS metastases and best response to prior CRZ and randomized 1:1 to BRG 90 mg qd (arm A) or 180 mg qd with a 7-day lead-in at 90 mg (arm B). Primary endpoint: Investigator-assessed confirmed ORR by RECIST v1.1.
Results
222 pts were randomized; 69 Asian (A/B, n = 39/30), 153 non-Asian (n = 73/80); median age: Asian, 50/56 y; non-Asian, 51/57 y; 85/70% vs 64/66% had BL CNS metastases. As of Sep 2017, median follow-up was 18.4/22.5 mo (A/B) in Asians vs 22.3/24.5 mo in non-Asians. In Asians, median IRC-assessed PFS (mo) was 9.1 (95% CI 5.6–18.2) in A vs 15.6 (9.2–21.2) in B (HR 0.88 [95% CI 0.48–1.62]; P = 0.6808); in non-Asians, PFS (A/B) was 9.9 (9.0–26.3) vs 17.9 (11.6–23.9; HR 0.72 [0.45–1.13]; P = 0.1510) (Table). Of 7/2 (A/B) Asian pts with measurable BL CNS metastases, 3/1 had confirmed intracranial objective responses; in non-Asian pts with measurable BL CNS metastases, IRC-assessed iORR was 53/69% (n = 19/16). In Asians (A vs B) with any BL CNS metastases, IRC-assessed median iPFS (mo) was 15.6 (5.6–18.4) vs 12.8 (7.3–21.1); in non-Asians, 12.8 (7.4–NR) vs 20.7 (11.1–NR). Most common any-grade TRAEs in Asians (≥20%): increased CPK and amylase; in non-Asians, nausea, diarrhea, and increased CPK. Most common grade ≥3 TRAEs (>3%) in Asians: increased CPK; in non-Asians, increased CPK and lipase, hypertension. Early-onset pulmonary AEs occurred in 3 (4%; 1 grade ≥3) Asian (Korean) and 11 (7%; 6 grade ≥3) non-Asian pts. Dose reductions due to AE: 7.7/30.0% in Asian pts; 7.1/28.8% in non-Asian pts; discontinuations due to AE: 7.7/16.7% in Asian pts; 10.0/20.0% in non-Asian pts.Table:

Conclusions
BRG showed comparable efficacy and acceptable safety in Asians and non-Asians in CRZ-refractory ALK+ NSCLC, with nonsignificant, numerically improved PFS at the 180-mg (with lead-in) dose.
