9506 Background: In NEJ026, a phase III trial comparing bevacizumab plus erlotinib (BE) to erlotinib monotherapy (E) for EGFR-mutated non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC), we demonstrated the progression-free survival (PFS) of BE was significantly superior to E (Saito et al. Lancet Oncol. 2019 May;20(5):625-635.). However overall survival analysis were immature at the cutoff date. Methods: Chemotherapy-naïve pts with advanced non-squamous NSCLC harboring EGFR-mutation were randomly assigned to receive either combination with erlotinib (150 mg daily) plus bevacizumab (15 mg/kg iv q3w) or erlotinib (150 mg daily). The primary endpoint was PFS. Secondary endpoints were OS, RR, safety, and QoL. Results: The 226 pts were assigned to BE (n=112) and E (n=114). For the follow-up OS analysis, the data cut-off date was 30 November 2019. Median follow up time was 39.2 months. Median OS was 50.7 months (95% CI, 37.3 months to not reached) with BE and 46.2 months (95% CI, 38.2 months to not reached) with E (hazard ratio, 1.00; 95% CI, 0.68 to 1.48). Twenty-nine patients (25.9%) in BE and twenty-six patients (23.2%) in E were treated by osimertinib as second line treatment. The median survival time between enrollment and progressive disease of second-line treatment (median PFS2) was 28.6 months (95% CI, 22.1 months to 35.9) with BE and 24.3 months (95% CI, 20.4 months to 29.1 months) with E (hazard ratio, 0.80; 95% CI, 0.59 to 1.10). In both arms, the median OS of patients with osimertinib second-line treatment were longer than other second-line chemotherapy groups [50.7 months (95% CI, 38.0 months to 50.7 months) vs 40.1 months (95% CI, 29.5 months to not reached), (hazard ratio, 0.645; 95% CI, 0.40 to 1.03), respectively. Conclusion: The additional effect of bevacizumab on erlotinib monotherapy for NSCLC with EGFR mutations gradually decreased in the order of PFS2 and survival, with no significant differences.
