Abstract 1248P
Background
In Chinese patients (pts) with NSCLC, incidence of EGFRm disease is high (∼35–50%). Osi is a 3rd-generation, oral EGFR-TKI recommended for EGFRm advanced NSCLC and as adjuvant therapy for resected EGFRm NSCLC. LAURA (NCT03521154) is a global, phase III, double-blind, placebo (PBO)-controlled study evaluating the efficacy/safety of osi in unresectable stage III EGFRm NSCLC without progression after definitive CRT. In LAURA, osi showed a statistically significant and clinically meaningful improvement in progression-free survival (PFS). We report pre-specified, exploratory analyses of efficacy/safety in Chinese pts in LAURA.
Methods
Eligible pts: ≥18 yrs, WHO PS 0/1, unresectable stage III EGFRm (Ex19del/L858R) NSCLC, had received definitive platinum-based CRT with no progression. Pts were randomised 2:1 to receive osi 80 mg or PBO QD until blinded independent central review (BICR)-confirmed progression/discontinuation. Imaging, including brain MRI, was performed at baseline, every 8 wks to wk 48, then every 12 wks until progression by BICR. Open-label osi was offered post-progression. Primary endpoint: BICR-assessed PFS; secondary endpoints included overall survival (OS) and safety. Data cut-off: 5 Jan 2024.
Results
Of 216 pts randomised globally, 40 (19%) were Chinese (osi n=27; PBO n=13). Baseline characteristics were generally balanced between arms and consistent with the global population. Median PFS by BICR was not reached (95% CI 17.4 mos, not calculable) for osi vs 3.7 mos (1.8, 7.7) for PBO. PFS rate for osi vs PBO was 80% vs 17% at 12 mos and 71% vs 8% at 24 mos. Investigator-assessed PFS was consistent with BICR assessment. OS data were immature (2 events per arm). All-causality AEs occurred in 96% vs 77% pts; grade [G] ≥3 AEs in 30% vs 8%; serious AEs in 41% vs 23%; any AEs leading to discontinuation in 15% vs 8% for osi vs PBO, respectively. Radiation pneumonitis (grouped term) occurred in 52% vs 38% pts for osi vs PBO; most G1/2.
Conclusions
Clinical benefit/safety with osi in Chinese pts in LAURA were consistent with the global population, supporting osi after definitive CRT as the new standard of care globally and for Chinese pts with unresectable stage III EGFRm NSCLC.
