Purpose (1) Identify clinical factors that can be used to predict survival in chemotherapy-naive patients with advanced non–small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) treated with third-generation chemotherapy regimens, and (2) build a clinical model to predict survival in this patient population. Patients and Methods Using data from two randomized, phase III Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) trials (E5592/E1594), we performed univariate and multivariate stepwise Cox regression analyses to identify survival prognostic factors. We used 75% of randomly sampled data to build a prediction model for survival, and the remaining 25% of data to validate the model. Results From 1993 to 1999, 1,436 patients with stage IV or IIIB NSCLC with effusion were treated with platinum-based doublets (involving either paclitaxel, docetaxel, or gemcitabine). The response rate and median survival time were 20% and 8.2 months, respectively. One- and 2-year survivals were 33% and 11%, respectively. In multivariate analysis, six independent poor prognostic factors were identified: skin metastasis (hazard ratio [HR], 1.88), lower performance status (ECOG 1 or 2; HR, 1.46), loss of appetite (HR, 1.62), liver metastasis (HR, 1.32), ≥ four metastatic sites (HR, 1.20), and no prior surgery (HR, 1.16). A nomogram using six pretreatment prognostic factors was built to predict 1- and 2-year survival. Conclusion Six pretreatment factors can be used to predict survival in chemotherapy-naive NSCLC patients treated with standard chemotherapy. Using our prognostic nomogram, 1- and 2-year survival probability of NSCLC patients can be estimated before treatment. This prognostic model may help clinicians and patients in clinical decision making, as well as investigators in research planning.

e21636 Background: Afatinib is an irreversible ErbB family blocker, which is approved for the treatment of advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients with activating EGFR mutations. Here we report the final results of the prospective non-interventional study (NIS) GIDEON, which was initiated to investigate the efficacy and tolerability of afatinib in the daily clinical routine in Germany. Methods: EGFR-mutated NSCLC patients were treated with afatinib according to label until progression, death or discontinuation. Efficacy (progression-free survival (PFS) rate at 12 months, objective response rate, ORR; disease control rate, DCR; progression-free survival, PFS and overall survival, OS) was prospectively assessed by investigators. Data about tolerability were collected during routine treatment. Results: In total, 161 patients were enrolled at 41 sites in Germany, 152 patients received at least one dose of afatinib (treated set; TS) and 146 patients were treated according to the protocol (PPS). The majority of patients for the entire TS had exon 19 deletions (64.5%), followed by L858R point mut. (22.4%) and uncommon mut. (exon 18-21 point mut.; 13.1%). The primary objective was PFS-rate at 12 months, which was 50.2% in the PPS. Median PFS amounted to 12.2 months. ORR and DCR were 74.6% and 91.5% in the PPS, respectively. Median OS was 30.4 months with 1- and 2-year survival rates of 79.1% and 57.7%, respectively. Among pat. with uncommon EGFR-mut., the 12-months PFS rate was 40.2% with a mPFS of 10.7 months. ORR and DCR were 83.3% and 91.7%, respectively. The most frequent documented adverse drug reactions (ADRs) were diarrhea and rash/acne with 13.8% and 7.2% of grade 3 but no grade 4 or higher. Conclusions: Afatinib is a standard therapy for patients with activating EGFR mut. in Germany. The final results of this prospective NIS confirm the robust clinical data for afatinib in the clinical routine setting, including patients with uncommon exon 18-21 point mutations. Clinical trial information: NCT02047903.

The Impact

Background: Stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) in ultra-central (UC) lung tumors, defined in the presence of planning target volume (PTV) overlap or direct tumor abutment to the central bronchial tree or esophagus, may be correlated to a higher incidence of severe adverse events. Outcome and toxicity in oligometastatic (≤3 metastases) non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients receiving SBRT for UC tumors were evaluated. Methods: Oligometastatic NSCLC patients treated with SBRT for UC were retrospectively reviewed. Local control (LC), distant metastasis-free survival (DMFS), progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) were calculated. Incidence and grade of toxicity were evaluated. Statistical analysis was performed to assess the impact of clinical and treatment-related variables on outcome and toxicity occurrence. Results: Seventy-two patients were treated to a median biologically effective dose (BED) of 105 (75–132) Gy10. Two-year LC, DMFS, PFS, and OS were 83%, 46%, 43%, and 49%. BED>75 Gy10 was correlated to superior LC (p = 0.02), PFS (p = 0.036), and OS (p < 0.001). Grade ≥3 toxicity rate was 7%, including one fatal esophagitis. No variables were correlated to DMFS or to occurrence of overall and grade ≥3 toxicity. Conclusions: SBRT using dose-intensive schedules improves outcome in NSCLC patients. Overall toxicity is acceptable, although rare but potentially fatal toxicities may occur.
