Adjuvant Osimertinib in Patients With Stage IB to IIIA EGFR Mutation-Positive NSCLC After Complete Tumor Resection: ADAURA China Subgroup Analysis.

ABSTRACT

Introduction: In Chinese patients with NSCLC, prevalence of EGFR-mutated (EGFRm) disease is high. In the global phase 3 ADAURA study (NCT02511106), adjuvant osimertinib was found to have a statistically significant and clinically meaningful improvement in disease-free survival (DFS) versus placebo in resected stage IB to IIIA EGFRm NSCLC. We present efficacy and safety data from a subgroup analysis of 159 Chinese patients enrolled in the People's Republic of China from ADAURA. Methods: In ADAURA, patients with completely resected stage IB to IIIA EGFRm (exon 19 deletion/exon 21 L858R) NSCLC were randomized 11 to receive osimertinib (80 mg once daily) or placebo for 3 years or until disease recurrence/discontinuation. Adjuvant chemotherapy was permitted before randomization, per physician/patient choice. Primary end point was investigator-assessed DFS in stage II to IIIA disease; secondary end points included DFS in stage IB to IIIA (overall population), overall survival, health-related quality of life (HRQoL), and safety. Results: Of 682 patients enrolled globally, 159 patients in the People's Republic of China were included in this subgroup analysis (osimertinib n = 77; placebo n = 82). Baseline characteristics were balanced across the treatment arms. At data cutoff, stage II to IIIA DFS hazard ratio (HR) was 0.23 (95% confidence interval [CI] 0.13-0.42; maturity 59%); stage IB to IIIA DFS HR was 0.29 (95% CI 0.17-0.48; maturity 42%). At 13% maturity (21 deaths), HR for overall survival in the stage IB to IIIA population was 0.51 (95% CI 0.21-1.20). HRQoL was maintained from baseline, and safety was consistent with the global population. Conclusions: In this population of Chinese patients from ADAURA, adjuvant osimertinib was found to have a clinically meaningful improvement in DFS versus placebo, with maintained HRQoL and a safety profile consistent with the global study population.
