RESUMEN
Introduction: The JAVELIN Lung 101 phase 1b/2 trial evaluated avelumab (immune checkpoint inhibitor) combined with lorlatinib or crizotinib (tyrosine kinase inhibitors) in ALK-positive or ALK-negative advanced NSCLC, respectively. Methods: Starting doses of lorlatinib 100 mg once daily or crizotinib 250 mg twice daily were administered with avelumab 10 mg/kg every 2 weeks. Primary objectives were assessment of maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and recommended phase 2 dose in phase 1 and objective response rate in phase 2. Primary end points were dose-limiting toxicity (DLT) and confirmed objective response per Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors, version 1.1. Results: In the avelumab plus lorlatinib group (ALK-positive; n = 31; 28 in phase 1b; three in phase 2), two of 28 assessable patients (7%) had DLT, and the MTD and recommended phase 2 dose was avelumab 10 mg/kg every 2 weeks plus lorlatinib 100 mg once daily. In the avelumab plus crizotinib group (ALK-negative; n = 12; all phase 1b), five of 12 assessable patients (42%) had DLT, and the MTD was exceeded with avelumab 10 mg/kg every 2 weeks plus crizotinib 250 mg twice daily; alternative crizotinib doses were not assessed. Objective response rate was 52% (95% confidence interval, 33%-70%) with avelumab plus lorlatinib (complete response, 3%; partial response, 48%) and 25% (95% confidence interval, 6%-57%) with avelumab plus crizotinib (all partial responses). Conclusions: Avelumab plus lorlatinib treatment in ALK-positive NSCLC was feasible, but avelumab plus crizotinib treatment in ALK-negative NSCLC could not be administered at the doses tested. No evidence of increased antitumor activity was observed in either group. ClinicalTrialsgov identifier: NCT02584634.
RESUMEN
BACKGROUND: MET exon 14 skipping mutations occur in 3-4% and MET high amplifications occur in < 1% of patients with non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Crizotinib, a selective ATP-competitive small-molecule inhibitor of c-Met, ALK, and ROS1 tyrosine kinases, has shown activity in cancer models with various types of MET activation. METHODS: The Co-MET study is a single-arm phase 2 trial to assess the safety and efficacy of crizotinib in MET inhibitor-naïve patients with advanced NSCLC harboring MET exon 14 skipping mutation (cohort 1) or high MET gene copy number of ≥ 7 (cohort 2). The primary endpoint was the objective response rate (ORR) per RECIST v1.1 by independent radiology review in cohort 1. The key secondary endpoints were the duration of response (DoR), progression-free survival (PFS), overall survival (OS), and safety. RESULTS: A total of 28 patients (23 in cohort 1 and 5 in cohort 2) were enrolled between March 2018 and February 2020. The primary endpoint was met as the ORR (90% confidence interval: CI) in cohort 1 was 38.1% (20.6-58.3). Median DoR, PFS, and OS (95% CI) were 7.6 (1.9-NE), 5.7 (2.1-11.3), 9.1 (4.0-19.9) months, respectively, in cohort 1. ORR in cohort 2 was 40.0% (18.9-92.4). The safety signals were generally consistent with the known safety profile of crizotinib. CONCLUSIONS: Crizotinib showed a clinical activity similar to that of tepotinib and capmatinib in patients with NSCLC harboring MET exon 14 skipping mutations.

BACKGROUND: Part E of the KEYNOTE-011 (NCT01840579) study assessed the safety and antitumor activity of pembrolizumab plus platinum-etoposide chemotherapy in Japanese patients with previously untreated extensive-stage small-cell lung cancer (ES-SCLC). METHODS: Patients received 4 cycles of pembrolizumab (200 mg) every 3 weeks in combination with cisplatin (75 mg/m2) and etoposide (100 mg/m2; days 1, 2, 3) in cohort 1; with carboplatin (AUC 5 mg/mL/min) and etoposide (100 mg/m2; days 1, 2, 3) in cohort 2; or with cisplatin/etoposide and pegfilgrastim (3.6 mg; cycle 1, day 4) in cohort 3. Combination therapy was followed by pembrolizumab monotherapy (31 cycles). The primary endpoint was safety and tolerability (including dose-limiting toxicities; DLTs). RESULTS: Fifteen patients were included in the study (cohort 1, n = 6; cohort 2, n = 6; cohort 3, n = 3). Median time from treatment allocation to data cutoff was 22.1 months (range, 4.1â32.4 months). DLTs occurred in 3 patients in cohort 1 (one patient with grade 4 laryngeal stenosis and grade 3 febrile neutropenia; two patients with grade 3 febrile neutropenia); no patients in cohorts 2 or 3 experienced DLTs. Grade ≥ 3 treatment-related adverse events included leukopenia (67%) and neutropenia (87%). Among all patients, ORR was 67% (95% CI, 38%â88%) and median DOR was 4.5 months (range, 2.8â28.8 months). Median PFS was 4.2 months (95% CI, 3.0â7.8 months) and median OS was 22.1 months (95% CI, 7.4â25.9 months). CONCLUSION: Pembrolizumab in combination with platinum-etoposide therapy had manageable toxicity with no new safety signals and was associated with antitumor activity in Japanese patients with ES-SCLC.
