Abstract

Patients with unresectable stage III non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) have an unmet need for new therapies that improve survival. This phase III trial investigated the safety and efficacy of concurrent ociperlimab and tislelizumab plus concurrent chemoradiotherapy (cCRT) in treatment-naïve patients with stage III NSCLC.
In this phase III, multicenter, randomized, multiarm, open-label trial, patients with unresectable stage III NSCLC received concurrent ociperlimab plus tislelizumab and cCRT, followed by ociperlimab plus tislelizumab (arm A), tislelizumab and cCRT, followed by tislelizumab (arm B), or cCRT, followed by durvalumab (arm C) (NCT04866017). Objectives were to compare progression-free survival (PFS), overall survival (OS), objective response rate (ORR), duration of response, disease control rate, clinical benefit rate, time to death or distant metastasis (TTDM), and safety and tolerability for arms A versus C, B versus C, and A versus B.
63 patients were randomized to arms A (N=22), B (N=19), and C (N=22) prior to early trial termination. In A, B, and C, respectively, 95.5% (21/22), 84.2% (16/19), and 95.5% (21/22) were current or former smokers, and 68.2% (15/22), 73.7% (14/19), and 68.2% (15/22) had PD-L1 expression in tumor cells of ≥1%. Median PFS (95% CI) was not reached (NR) (6.3-not estimable (NE)) in A, 15.0 months (7.4 to NE) in B, and 10.4 months (5.7 to NE) in C. Median OS and TTDM were NR in any arm. ORR (95% CI) was 68.2% (45.1%-86.1%) in A, 68.4% (43.4%-87.4%) in B, and 59.1% (36.4%-79.3%) in C; all responses were partial responses. Treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs) occurred in all patients; in arms A, B, and C, respectively, pneumonitis occurred in 18.2% (4/22), 5.6% (1/18), and 9.1% (2/22) of patients, and interstitial lung disease occurred in 13.6% (3/22), 11.1% (2/18), and 0% of patients, of which the majority of events for each were grade 1/2. Grade ≥3 treatment-related TEAEs occurred in 68.2% (15/22), 66.7% (12/18), and 68.2% (15/22) of patients in arms A, B, and C, respectively.
There was a trend toward improved efficacy when adding tislelizumab with or without ociperlimab to cCRT followed by tislelizumab with or without ociperlimab compared with cCRT followed by durvalumab; however, efficacy data were for descriptive purposes only. No unexpected or new safety signals were identified.
