Neoadjuvant Toripalimab for Non-squamous NSCLC With EGFR Mutation
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
This study was designed to investigate the efficacy and safety of neoadjuvant Toripalimab (anti-PD1) plus chemotherapy for patients with resectable II-IIIB non-squamous NSCLC harboring EGFR mutation, and to explore the potential predictive and prognostic biomarkers, aiming to provide more abundant evidences for the preoperative treatment decision of non-squamous NSCLC patients.

Detailed Description
Previous studies have confirmed the efficacy of neoadjuvant immunotherapy in NSCLC patients without driver gene mutation, while its efficacy in driver gene mutated patients is still controversial. This study was designed to investigate the efficacy and safety of neoadjuvant Toripalimab (anti-PD1) plus chemotherapy for patients with resectable II-IIIB non-squamous NSCLC harboring EGFR mutation, and to explore the potential predictive and prognostic biomarkers, aiming to provide more abundant evidences for the preoperative treatment decision of non-squamous NSCLC patients.
Study Design
Arms and Interventions
| Arm | Intervention/Treatment |
|---|---|
| Experimental: 19DEL cohort Patients who participated in the trial with EGFR 19DEL mutation will be included in this arm. |
Drug: Toripalimab plus Chemotherapy
Therapy was administered on a 21-day regimen for 3 cycles, with Toripalimab (240mg, d1), carboplatin (AUC=5, d1) + pemetrexed (500 mg/m2, d1) for patients with lung adenocarcinoma and carboplatin (AUC=5, d1) + albumin-bound paclitaxel (260 mg/m2, d1) for patients with other subtypes.
|
| Experimental: L858R cohort Patients who participated in the trial with EGFR L858R mutation will be included in this arm |
Drug: Toripalimab plus Chemotherapy
Therapy was administered on a 21-day regimen for 3 cycles, with Toripalimab (240mg, d1), carboplatin (AUC=5, d1) + pemetrexed (500 mg/m2, d1) for patients with lung adenocarcinoma and carboplatin (AUC=5, d1) + albumin-bound paclitaxel (260 mg/m2, d1) for patients with other subtypes.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Pathologic Complete Response (pCR) Rate [Within 1 week after surgery]
Pathologic complete response (pCR) rate is defined as the percentage of participants with no residual viable tumor in lung primary or lymph nodes as evaluated by blinded independent pathological review (BIPR).
Secondary Outcome Measures
- Major Pathologic Response (MPR) Rate [Within 1 week after surgery]
Major pathologic response (MPR) rate is defined as the percentage of participants with less than or equal to 10% of residual viable tumor in lung primary or lymph nodes as evaluated by blinded independent pathological review (BIPR). Viable tumors in situ carcinoma should not be included in MPR calculation.
- Pathologic Complete Response (pCR) Rate in non-squamous NSCLC with different EGFR mutations status [Within 1 week after surgery]
Assessing pCR rates in the 19del and L858R groups separately.
- Major Pathologic Response (MPR) Rate in non-squamous NSCLC with different EGFR mutations status [Within 1 week after surgery]
Assessing MRP rates in the 19del and L858R groups separately.
- Pathologic Complete Response (pCR) Rate in non-squamous NSCLC with different PD-L1 expression levels [Within 1 week after surgery]
Assessing pCR rates in the PD-L1 TPS≥1% and PD-L1 TPS<1% groups separately.
- Major Pathologic Response (MPR) Rate in non-squamous NSCLC with different PD-L1 expression levels [Within 1 week after surgery]
Assessing MRP rates in the PD-L1 TPS≥1% and PD-L1 TPS<1% groups separately.
- Event-free Survival (EFS) [Up to 24 months after participation]
EFS is defined as the time from participation to any of the following events: progression of disease, recurrence disease, or death due to any cause. Progression/recurrence will be assessed either by biopsy assessed by local pathologist or by investigator-assessed imaging using Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) 1.1.
- The Safety and Tolerability [Up to 24 months after participation]
To assess the safety and tolerability of neoadjuvant immuno-chemotherapy in patients with resectable stage II-IIIB non-squamous non-small cell lung cancer harboring EGFR mutations, including as follows: number, frequency and proportion of patients with adverse events (AEs), serious adverse events (SAEs) and AEs of special interest (AESI) and on-study deaths.

-
Acceptable cardiac function with a left ventricular ejection fraction >50%;
-
Acceptable respiratory function (FEV1>1.5L, DLCO>50%) and ability to tolerate radical lung cancer surgery;
-
Acceptable bone marrow haematopoiesis with leucocytes ≥ 4 x 109/L, neutrophils ≥ 1.5 x 109/L, haemoglobin ≥ 10g/dL and platelets ≥ 100 x 10^9/L;
