e20554 Background: The paradigm for locally advanced non-small cell lung cancer has been markedly altered to include maintenance durvalumab (D) post completion of definitive chemoradiation (CRT) following the publication of the Pacific trial in 2018. The toxicity of this treatment has not been well evaluated in the real-world setting. Methods: We identified 42 patients (pts) with Stage IIB-IIIC NSCLC treated at Mayo Clinic Rochester between 6/1/2018 and 10/1/2020 who received definitive CRT followed by maintenance D. Data were abstracted by retrospective chart review under an IRB approved protocol. Results: Median age was 66 yrs (range 47-90) and 62% were women. Primary lung cancer histology included 19 adenocarcinoma, 20 squamous cell, and 3 adenosquamous. The distribution of stages was: IIB (4/42), IIIA (15/42), IIIB (19/42), IIIC (4/42). Approximately half of patients had PDL1 expression > 25% (20/42). With a median follow up of 12.2 months (calculated from first cycle of D; range 4.2-30.5 months), 14 had completed one year of maintenance D, 16 were receiving ongoing D, and 10 stopped D early with 6/12 discontinuing due to disease progression (4/6 local progression, 2/6 distant progression). Other reasons for discontinuation (5/10) included grade 3 colitis, grade 2 hepatitis, aspergillus lung infection, and flare of autoimmune disorders. One quarter of patients experienced grade 2 radiation pneumonitis (RP; 10/42) with median time to development of RP 78 days from end of CRT and 45 days from start of D. RP was determined by multidisciplinary review of imaging and treatment fields. 17/42 patients developed immune related adverse events (see Table for details). There was minimal overlap between the patients who experienced pneumonitis and immune related toxicity; 2/17 had both pneumonitis and immune related toxicity (hepatitis, thyroiditis). Conclusions: In our early experience with the Pacific regimen, 29% of patients did not complete D due to either toxicity or progression during D administration. Pneumonitis was common (10/42 patients) although there were no grade 3 events. Nearly half of the patients developed an immune-related adverse event. Further analysis is needed to evaluate the real-world toxicity of this treatment as well as oncologic outcomes.[Table: see text]

AimsThe aim of this study is to extend the analysis of the Lung Cancer Biomarker Testing Registry (LungPath), by analysing the techniques used in the determination of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR), anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK), c-ros oncogene 1 (ROS1) and programmed death ligand-1 (PD-L1) for the diagnostic of patients with advanced non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC).MethodsInformation of the technique used for the determination of EGFR, ALK, ROS1 and PD-L1 was recorded from March 2018 to January 2019 from 44 centres, but only 34 centres matched with the 38 centres previously analysed, allowing to analyse the techniques used in 8970 matched determinations of EGFR, ALK, ROS1 and PD-L1. Therefore, a by-centre analysis studied the level of implementation of the techniques in the 44 centres, while a by-determination analysis made it possible to assess the overall frequency of the techniques used on the 9134 matched samples.ResultsBy-centre analysis showed that only 46.5% and 25.6% of the centres used reflex strategies for ALK and ROS1 determination, respectively. By-determination analysis showed that 94.4% of EGFR determinations were performed by PCR, 80.7% of ALK determinations were performed by IHC with clone D5F3, while 55.7% of ROS1 determinations were performed by IHC with clone D4D6. 22C3 were the PD-L1 clone more used (43.5%) followed by SP263 clone (31.1%).ConclusionsThe real-world evidence obtained from LungPath shows the effort of Spanish hospitals in performing biomarker determination in NSCLC with different methodologies despite that next-generation sequencing (NGS) utilisation in the year of the analysis was low. Biomarker determination results could be optimised with the incorporation of sequencing methods such as NGS in pathology departments.

In 2017 the first published PFS results of PACIFIC study demonstrated new opportunities of immunotherapy in locally-advanced unresectable non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) after chemoradiation (CRT). The positive overall survival results in this trial were received next year. This trial has become the first positive study in the more then 10 years after failure of all trials which investigated different approaches for improvement efficacy of standard CRT (induction therapy, consolidation therapy, target therapy, increased RT dose). The PACIFIC trial has opened new opportunities to improve outcomes in this patient’s population. Durvalumab was registered in Russia in July 2019, however clinical experience of durvalumab administration is still limited and we need to build expertise in this field. In this article we present the first example of durvalumab therapy in post CRT period in Bashkortostan real clinical practices. Patient with IIIB st NSCLC started durvalumab therapy after standard CRT. The complete response was registered after 4 months of therapy and currently after 9 months of therapy it is still remain.

8527 Background: It is unknown which regimen is the best in concurrent chemoradiotherapy (CCRT) of locally advanced non-squamous non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Our previous randomized phase Ⅱ study, NJLCG0601, showed that chemoradiotherapy with uracil/tegafur (UFT) and cisplatin achieved promising efficacy with acceptable toxicities. In this trial, this regimen was compared to a regimen with pemetrexed and cisplatin for stage Ⅲ non-squamous NSCLC. Methods: Patients with inoperable stage Ⅲ non-squamous NSCLC were randomized to UFT 400 mg/m2 on days 1–14 and 29–42, and cisplatin 80 mg/m2 on days 8 and 36 (UP), or pemetrexed 500 mg/m2 and cisplatin 75 mg/m2 on days 1, 22, and 43 (PP). Involved-field radiotherapy (IFRT) was administered from day 1 to a total dose of 66 Gy radiotherapy in 33 fractions. Consolidation chemotherapy after CCRT was not planned for this study. The primary endpoint was 2-year overall survival (OS), with expected rates of 55% and a lower limit of 35% (alfa 0.05, beta 0.2). Secondary endpoints were the objective response rate (ORR), progression-free survival (PFS), OS, and toxicity profile. Results: From November 2010 to June 2017, 86 patients were enrolled from 11 institutions. Of the 85 eligible patients, the rate of 2-year OS was 78.6% (95% CI: 62.8–88.3%) in the UP arm and 85.5% (95% CI: 70.5–93.2%) in the PP arm. The ORR was 76.7% in the UP arm and 81.0% in the PP arm. With a median follow-up of 54 months, median PFS and OS were 12.3 and 64.2 months in the UP arm, and 26.2 months and not reached in the PP arm, respectively. Grade 3/4 febrile neutropenia was more frequent in the UP arm than in the PP arm (14.0%, 2.0%, respectively). Grade 3/4 pneumonitis occurred in 7.0% and 4.8% of patients in UP and PP arms, respectively. Conclusions: Both regimens with IFRT achieved the expected 2-year survival rate. PP had more favorable results than UP in terms of OS and PFS. We selected the PP arm for the next step.
