  2. ASCO 2008 - Advanced NSCLC:Take Home Message • EGFR-targeted therapies deeply developed ... • Navelbine + CDDP as Reference treatment and … • FLEX NP+Cetuximab • The first combination confirming effectiveness of targeted Therapy as front line CT • Maintenance treatment improves PFS and…maybe OS: • The opportunity for Navelbine Oral ! • More data to differenciate treatment between Adeno & Squamous • Second Line Treatment: • Chemotherapy or targeted therapy? • … and now Third line treatments under development!

  3. Prediction of survival benefit:Correlation with RR, PFS and OS • Mandrekar, #8021p: • PFS is more predictive of OS than best/confirmed OR (BR/CR) for PS2 • PFS 6m is significantly associated with survival than BR or CR p<0.001 • DC (CR,PR, SD) 8 w is a better predictor of OS than tumour response • Hotta, #8022p • TTP useful surrogate marker as an alternative to OS • Buyse # 8019o • In 2838 pts, 7 trials, PFS correlated to OS (R2=0.68 CI 0.67-0.68) • Median PFS 5.5m MOS 10 m

  4. ASCO 2008:First-Line Treatment: Navelbine

  5. First-Line Treatment - FLEX TrialPhase III Navelbine-CDDP + Cetuximab (Pirker, #3o) Primary endpoint : Overall survival (845 events, 1100 pts) NSCLC wet IIIB/IV EGFR + expressing Maintenance Arm A: NVB/CDDP + Cetuximab Cetuximab until PD or untolerable toxicity Arm B: NVB/CDDP Chemotherapy (CT) Cetuximab Cisplatin 80 mg/m2 day 1 Loading dose 400 mg/m2 Vinorelbine 25 (30) mg/m2 day 1, 8  250 mg/m2 weekly Every 3 weeks, up to 6 cycles # = N Abstract; O = Oral presentation; P = Poster; NP + Cetuximab : the winner doublet in 1st line

  6. OS Race/Histology CT + Cetuximab CT HR [95% CI] 9,1 0,803 Caucasian (n=946) 10,5 [0,694 - 0,928] 10,3 Adeno (n=413) 12,0 [0,649 - 1,023] 0,815 8,9 Squamous cell (n=347) 10,2 [0,626 - 1,007] 0,794 0,807 [0,584 - 1,115] 8,2 9,0 Other (n=185) FLEX Trial Overall Efficay by race and histology (Pirker, #3o) # = N Abstract; O = Oral presentation; P = Poster; Superior overall survival compared to chemotherapy alone in patients with advanced EGFR-expressing NSCLC

  7. FLEX Trial Efficay and Safety Data (Pirker, #3o) Toxicity G3-4 (% pts) # = N Abstract; O = Oral presentation; * p < 0.05; ** There was no grade 4 acne-like rask Expected and manageable side effects with acne-like rash as the main cetuximab related side effect

  8. FLEX Trial Subset Analysis – Asian Subgroup (Pirker, #3o) CT + Cetuximab CT p Baseline prognostic factors: Adenocarcinoma 65% 80% Post-study treatment: EGFR TKls 50% 73% OS (months) 17,6 months 20,4 months ns OR % 50% 44% ns # = N Abstract; O = Oral presentation; P = Poster; Small sample size (10%) and difference in histology and post-study EGFR TKl treatment do not allow to draw definitive conclusions

  12. ASCO 2008:First-Line Treatment - Other Agents

  13. Gemcitabine 1st Line Mono vs Doublet vs Triplet: Randomized Phase III trial (Fink, # 19008) # = N Abstract; O = Oral presentation; P = Poster; Similar Efficacy with pronounced Hematotoxicity in Arms B & C Role of triplets ?

  14. Gemcitabine + Oxaliplatin (GemOx) First Line GemOx vs Txl – CBDCA (Weissman, #8024p) # = N Abstract; O = Oral presentation; P = Poster; Similar Efficacy and safety profile in favour of GemOx

  15. Docetaxel + Gemcitabine First Line :Alternate schedules with NVB/CDDP (Lopez-Castro #19120) • Phase II: 21/27 evaluable; Age 58 y; ADK 48.1 % • TXT 35 + Gem 800 D1D8 and NVB 25 + CDDP 35 D21D29 every 6 weeks • Clinical Benefit : 81 % (CR 4.8 %/PR 61.9 %/SD 14.3 %) • PFS 9.7 m • TOX Gr3-4 : Neutropenia 11% / Elev ASAT3.7 % Do we need a sequential approach with NVB/CDDP?

  16. ASCO 2008:Targeted Treatment

  17. Targeted Treatment:Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor (EGFR) as a target • EGFR expression reported in >80% of NSCLC pts • EGFR expression is associated with tumor growth, metastasis and poor prognosis • Blocking EGFR has the potential to improve outcome in NSCLC

  18. Targeted Therapy: Current Phase III Trials in NSCLC • MMPI Negative x 4 • EGFR-TKIs Negative x 4 • EGFR MoAb Positive • PKC Antisense Negative x 1-1.5 • FTIs Negative x 1 • Anti VEGF Negative x1* • Sorafenib Negative x 1 • Retinoids Negative x 2 • PF35112676 Negative x 2 * Clinically selected pts, with a second study showing only PFS improvement New targeted therapy frequently disappointing !

  29. Duration of Chemotherapy in NSCLC:A systematic review and meta-analysis (Soon, #8013o) • Memento Asco Guidelines • Limit to 6 cycles • Stop 4 cycles for Non Responders • Is it preferable to continue ? Effects on PFS and OS ? • Randomized Trials : 4 cycles and continue… • Systematic Review (3 independent reviewers): • 13 trials 2416 pts • with third generation of drugs : 9 trials • With old CT : 2 trials

  30. Duration of Chemotherapy in NSCLC:Updated results with PEM maintenance (Soon, #8013o) Hazard Outcome Patients Ratio 95% CI P value PFS 1907 0,78 0,72 0,86 < 0,00001 PFS (Ciuleanu) 2570 0,75 0,69 0,81 < 0,00001 OS 2416 0,94 0,87 1,01 0,10 OS (Ciuleanu) 3079 0,92 0,86 0,99 0,03 # = N Abstract; O = Oral presentation; P = Poster Extending CT improvement with significant PFS but little effect on OS

  31. Maintenance Therapy in Advanced NSCLC:Is more better ? (Eberhardt, Discussion) • Pemetrexed YES • In Non Squamous cell carcinomas +++ • Gefitinib YES • In Smokers with Adenocarcinoma +++ ASCO 2003 Guidelines still valid as far as unselected patients are concerned!

  40. ASCO 2008:Second Line Treatments

  41. Chemotherapy in Second Line:Poly- or Single Agent (SA) CT ? • Di Maio #8052p • Six studies analysed: 608 pts, 72% CDDP-based CT • Better MS of Mono- vs Poly-CT in 2nd line: 37.9 vs 35 w • Better ORs of PolyCT (p=0.01) but more toxicity • Hemato 45 vs 31 %; Non hemato 33 vs 24 % • Smit, #8050p • Pemetrexed vs Pemetrexed + CDDP • Limited Role of CDDP in 2nd line with increased toxicity: • Gr 3-4 : 44 % vs 29 %.

Chemotherapy in Second Line:Analyses of Single agent CT • Tassinari, #19058: • No significant differences between Chemotherapies for 1 Year Survival and RR in 8 trials with 2671 pts • De Marinis, #8087p: • Meta analysis of 7 trials with 4291 pts • Taxotere, the reference standard for second Line • Neutropenia, the worst toxicity, limits its use

  43. Second Line Treatment:Targeted Therapies • EVEROLIMUS vs Erlotinib Papadimitrakopoulou # P • 72 pts. ORR: 11pts . Main tox : rash,stomatis/mucositis and diarrhea. Too early for survival rates. • Pemetrexed + Bevacizumab (Adjei, #8080) • 48 pts eval. The results are very good in second line. DC 50 % . MS 8.6 m. # = N Abstract; O = Oral presentation; P = Poster
