Abstract 1346P
Background
Capmatinib (Tabrecta®) is an orally bioavailable, highly potent and selective MET inhibitor (METi). Data from the GEOMETRY mono-1 study, a non-randomized, phase 2 trial of capmatinib in patients (pts) with MET exon 14 skipping mutation (METΔex14) metastatic NSCLC, demonstrated an objective response rate of 68% in treatment-naïve pts.
Methods
This retrospective cohort study examined the clinical characteristics, treatment patterns, and clinical outcomes of a cohort of real-world (RW) pts with METΔex14 NSCLC from the Flatiron Health-Foundation Medicine de-identified Clinico-genomic Database. RW progression-free survival (rwPFS) and overall survival (OS) of pts who received first-line chemotherapy and/or immune checkpoint inhibitor therapy in the metastatic setting were compared with RECIST-based PFS and OS of treatment-naive METΔex14 NSCLC pts who received capmatinib in the GEOMETRY mono-1 trial. An inverse odds weighting approach was used as a method of covariate balancing that estimated the Average Treatment effect on the Treated (ATT).
Results
Baseline demographics and clinical characteristics are in the table. Median (95% CI) PFS was 12.0 (5.5, 20.7) vs median rwPFS of 6.1 (3.4, 8.1) months for the trial and RW pts, respectively; following ATT weighting, median PFS was 12.0 (5.5, 20.7) vs median rwPFS of 6.2 (3.4, 9.1) months, respectively. Median (95% CI) OS was 20.8 (12.4, not reached [NR]) vs 14.8 (7.7, 26.2) months for the trial and RW pts respectively; following ATT weighting, median OS was 20.8 (12.4, NR) vs 20.0 (7.2, NR) months, respectively. A number of RW pts received METi after progression on first line (n=11, pre-weighting; n=8.8, after ATT-weighting) Table: 1346P

.Conclusions
Based on this retrospective RW comparison, capmatinib confers longer PFS vs treatments available as first-line for advanced METΔex14 NSCLC, before and after matching for differences in baseline and clinical characteristics.
