CALGB 30506: Trial Objectives • Hypothesis: A genomics prediction model (LUNG METAGENE SCORE; LMS) provides a method for selecting stage I non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients for adjuvant chemotherapy • Primary Objectives • To demonstrate a survival advantage for patients randomized to adjuvant chemotherapy compared to an observation arm (present standard of care). • Observe a more significant survival advantage for High-score patients treated with chemotherapy • To prospectively validate a prognostic indicator of survival in stage I NSCLC patients identified with LMS who are observed after resection.
CALGB 30506: Trial Objectives • Secondary Objectives • Evaluate all other existing gene-based prognostic models • Compare the LMS with best clinico-pathologic model for survival • Validate of gene expression signatures from archived paraffin-embedded tumor samples • Quality of Life / Economics: • To assess QOL/Cost in all stage I patients before and periodically after resection for NSCLC. • To examine the impact of chemotherapy on QOL/Cost for patients in the chemotherapy arm, as compared to patients in the observation arm(s)
CALGB 30506: Inclusion Criteria • Pre-resection • Clinical T2N0 NSCLC • Suspicious tumor on CT size: 2.0 to 6.0 cm • (6 cm by CT translates to < 5.0 cm by path) • Mediastinal node assessment if • CT > 1cm • PET suspicious • Pre-registration after Informed Consent • No other cancer or chemotherapy in 3 years • At Operation • Verified NSCLC (if no Pre-op Dx) • Resectable by lobectomy (VATS or Open) • No clinically evidence of N2 or N1 + • Send frozen sections on nodes prior to enroll • Fresh-frozen Tumor to Duke • Using simple 5mm Dermal punch biopsy
After the specimen has been released by the pathologist, cut an approximate 1.0 x 1.0 x 0.5 cm block of firm grossly homogeneous lung tumor using a sterile scalpel blade.
Using a 5mm dermal punch biopsy, cut three (3) core biopsies of equal size from the tumor.
The core biopsy may be difficult to extract from the dermal punch. If so, it can be pushed out using a wooden applicator stick inserted into the back end of the punch.
Using the forceps, immediately place one tumor biopsy sample per Cryomold onto the frozen layer of OCT. 123456-B 123456-C 123456-A
With the cryomold still on the cold plate, place a top layer of OCT onto the tumor specimen. * The sample should be acquired / frozen within 30 minutes.* 123456-B 123456-A 123456-C

CALGB 30506: Inclusion Criteria: Con’t. • After Operation • Pathologic T1N0 and T2N0 (5% dropout) • N2 and N1 negative • Tumor >1.70 cm (up to 6.0 cm) • Visceral pleural invasion included • Inadequate tumor sample (10% Dropout) • > 50% necrosis • < 12 µg quality RNA • Good quality Array data generated • Formal Registration
CALGB 30506: Statistical Assumptions • Observation arm Survival for 1.7 to 6.0 cm stage I 60% at 5-years • Low-score observation survival = 70+% • (10+% increase) • High-score observation survival = <50% • (10+% decrease) • Chemotherapy Treatment arm survival 68-70%*(10-15% increase = HR 1.3 to 1.5) • High-score chemotherapy advantage • (15+% increase = HR 1.67-2.0) *Based on ANITA and NCI-C JBR-10 30506 is powered based on the chemotherapy treatment study: 85% with a two-sided p<0.05.

CALGB 30506: Treatment Plan • Assignment to Treatment Arm by Stats • Observation or Treatment • Chemotherapy within 12 weeks of resection • Platinum Doublets to mirror ECOG 1505 • Cisplatin + Docetaxel • Cisplatin + Gemcitabine • Cisplatin + Vinorelbine • Cisplatin + Pemetrexed - added soon This will allow combining these data with the ECOG 1505 chemotherapy-alone arm
Conclusions 1. CALGB 30506 is NCI-CTEP approved and activated in the CTSU. It has been endorsed by ACOSOG, ECOG, RTOG and Canadian sites. The tissue acquisition, processing, Affymetrix Genechip array generation and data analysis are funded by an NCI RO1. 2. It is hopeful that the use of this genomic prediction model will aid in the appropriate selection of stage 1 patients who will benefit from adjuvant chemotherapy.
Enrollment Tips • It is known that node + patients have up to 15% increased survival with adjuvant chemotherapy • It might be the case for node-negative tumors, but we need a trial to show that (standard is no chemo) • Everyone gets an equal chance of observation or chemotherapy • Everyone is does not know the score of your tumor except the NCI statisticians • You can pick the pair of drugs with your medical oncologist These are FDA-approved Standard Doses of Standard Drugs for adjuvant therapy in NSCLC. No experimental use. These are covered by insurance and mandated coverage by Medicare/Medicaid.
