ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:
The PACIFIC trial demonstrated that consolidation durvalumab significantly improved PFS and OS (the primary endpoints) vs. placebo in patients with unresectable, stage III NSCLC whose disease had not progressed after platinum-based, concurrent chemoradiotherapy (CRT). We report exploratory analyses of outcomes from PACIFIC by age. PATIENTS ANDMETHODS:
Patients were randomized 21 (1-42 days post-CRT) to receive 12-months' durvalumab (10 mg/kg intravenously every-2-weeks) or placebo. We analyzed PFS and OS (unstratified Cox-proportional-hazards models), safety and patient-reported outcomes (PROs symptoms, functioning, and global-health-status/quality-of-life) in subgroups defined by a post-hoc 70-year age threshold. Data cut-off for PFS was February 13, 2017 and for OS, safety and PROs was March 22, 2018.RESULTS:
Overall, 158 of 713 (22.2%) and 555 of 713 (77.8%) randomized patients were aged ≥70 and <70 years, respectively. Durvalumab improved PFS and OS among patients aged ≥70 (PFS hazard ratio [HR], 0.62 [95% CI, 0.41-0.95]; OS HR, 0.78 [95% CI, 0.50-1.22]) and <70 (PFS HR, 0.53 [95% CI, 0.42-0.67]; OS HR, 0.66 [95% CI, 0.51-0.87]), although the estimated HR-95% CI for OS crossed one among patients aged ≥70. Durvalumab exhibited a manageable safety profile and did not detrimentally affect PROs vs. placebo, regardless of age; grade 3/4 (41.6% vs. 25.5%) and serious adverse events (42.6% vs. 25.5%) were more common with durvalumab vs. placebo among patients aged ≥70.CONCLUSION:
Durvalumab was associated with treatment benefit, manageable safety, and no detrimental impact on PROs, irrespective of age, suggesting that elderly patients with unresectable, stage III NSCLC benefit from treatment with consolidation durvalumab after CRT. However, small subgroup sizes and imbalances in baseline factors prevent robust conclusions.Palavras-chave
