1) The document summarizes results from several studies presented at the 2016 ASCO conference related to thoracic cancers.
2) A study of adjuvant chemotherapy regimens for non-small cell lung cancer found no difference in outcomes between regimens containing vinorelbine, docetaxel, gemcitabine, or pemetrexed. Pemetrexed had less toxicity.
3) A trial of twice-daily vs once-daily radiation therapy for limited stage small cell lung cancer found no difference in overall survival between the arms.

Translational Genomics and Prostate Cancer: Meet the NGS Experts Series Part 2QIAGEN
Advanced prostate cancer is highly heterogeneous but this inter-patient heterogeneity has until recently not been understood. We have through an international research effort dissected the molecular landscape of advanced castration resistant prostate, elucidating key molecular targets in this group of diseases. We have also shown that PARP inhibitors have antitumor activity against a significant proportion of these cancers, mainly in men whose cancers harbor DNA repair defects.

4. E1505: Adjuvant Chemotherapy +/- Bev:
Outcomes based on Chemo Subsets (Abs 8507)
§ E1505 initiated to test whether Bev added anything to
adjuvant chemo
§ Four chemo options (all cisplatin based) all 3 week cycles
§ Vinorelbine 30 mg/m2 d1, 8
§ Docetaxel 75 mg/m2 d1
§ Gemcitabine 1200 mg/m2 d1, 8
§ Pemetrexed 500 mg/m2 d1
§ Bevacizumab 15 mg/m2 d1 for up to 1 year
4
X 4 cycles
5. Rationale for choices
§ Cisplatin/vinorelbine most common regimen in the mid 2000s
positive adjuvant trials
§ Metastatic NSCLC regimens showed no preference to
cisplatin/docetaxel or cisplatin/gemcitabine
§ Cisplatin/pemetrexed added in 2009 when approved in 1st line
§ TREAT study showed less toxicity and better tolerance of cis/
pem compared with cis/vinorelbine (Ann Oncol 2013;24:986)
§ 1501 pts accrued 2007-2013

8. Pooled Chemo Analysis (all patients regardless of treatment arm)<br /> OS by chemo group
OS by chemo group <br />Non-squamous : Logrank p=0.18 Squamous: Logrank p=0.99
Presented By Heather Wakelee at 2016 ASCO Annual Meeting
10. Conclusions E1505 chemo subsets
§ No difference in OS/DFS +/- Bev
§ No difference OS/DFS with different chemo regimens
§ More neutropenia/FN with vinorelbine
§ More thrombocytopenia with gemcitabine
§ Pemetrexed less Gr 3-5 toxicity

11. CONVERT Trial (Abs 8504)
§ Limited stage SCLC
§ Once daily vs twice daily radiation therapy
§ Twice daily (45 Gy in 30 fractions) consider SOC (Turrisi NEJM
1999)
§ This study looks at 45 Gy in bid fractions vs 66 Gy in 33
fractions, starting with cycle 2 (four to six cycles) of cisplatin/
etoposide
§ Primary endpoint OS, 532 pts planned
§ Similar to CALGB 30610 – 45 Gy in bid fractions vs 70 Gy in
once daily fractions – also OS primary endpoint, 729 pts
planned
11
16. Rovalpituzumab (DLL3) targeted ADC in SCLC
(Abs 8505)
§ While ORR high to first line chemo, terrible response to
second line chemo, no biomarker driven therapies identified
§ Delta-like Protein 3 (DLL3)
§ Inhibitory Notch ligand
§ Aberrant cell surface expression in 80% of SCLC and large cell
NE tumors
§ Seen on tumor stem cells, but no normal adult tissues
16
22. Tremelimumab as 2nd/3rd line for Mesothelioma
(Abs 8502)
§ Treme – anti CTLA4 antibody
§ Phase II trials with interesting DCR/OS/PFS
§ DETERMINE study – 571 pts (283 Treme, 189 Placebo), 2:1
randomization, primary endpoint OS

26. Alectinib vs Crizotinib in ALK Positive, ALK TKI
Naive Patients – J-ALEX (Abs 9008)
§ Alectinib is highly potent and active, good CNS penetration
§ Phase I/II study (in Japan) included previously untreated
patients
§ J-ALEX
§ Randomized 200 pts 1:1 to Alectinib (300 mg bid) or Crizotinib
(250 mg bid)
§ Assumed improvement in PFS from 9 to 14 months
26
30. Primary Endpoint: PFS by IRF (ITT Population)
Presented By Hiroshi Nokihara at 2016 ASCO Annual Meeting
31. Alectinib vs Crizotinib First Line
§ At least a doubling in PFS (10 to > 20 months)
§ Crizotinib PFS (first line) 10.9 months (Solomon, NEJM
2014;371:2167-77)
§ Alectinib PFS 8.9 months (Ou, JCO 2016 Mar 1;34(7):661-8)
§ 10.9 + 8.9 =??
§ Is tolerability a factor?
§ Is CNS penetration a factor?

32. EGFR Genotyping from Urine, Plasma, Tumor in
Patients Treated with Rociletinib (abstract 9001)
§ Analysis of Tiger X phase I/II study of Rociletinib (T790M
positive required only for phase 2 portion)
§ 500-100 mg bid
§ Safety population 548, Efficacy population 443 (ORR 33.9%)
§ Samples
§ Tissue 540
§ Plasma 482
§ Urine 213

33. TIGER-X: Tissue, Plasma, and Urine EGFR <br />Test Platforms
Presented By Heather Wakelee at 2016 ASCO Annual Meeting
34. Plasma, Tissue, and Urine Identify Unique and Overlapping Subsets of T790M-Positive Patients
Presented By Heather Wakelee at 2016 ASCO Annual Meeting
35. Investigator-Assessed Confirmed Response Rate Is Similar for T790M-Positive Patients Identified by Plasma, Tissue, and Urine Test
Presented By Heather Wakelee at 2016 ASCO Annual Meeting
36. Detection of T790M in Liquid Biopsies of Patients with Distant Metastatic vs Intrathoracic Disease
Presented By Heather Wakelee at 2016 ASCO Annual Meeting
37. Conclusions
§ Though Rociletinib has been discontinued, T790M detection
is feasible in tissue, urine and plasma
§ Responses to treatment similar across platform/sample
37
38. Somatic Genomic Landscape of over 15,000
Advanced Stage Cancer Patients from Clinical
NGS Analysis of ctDNA (LBA 11501)
§ Presented at Tumor Biology oral session 6/7/16
§ Basically a report from > 15,000 clinical samples assayed
via the Guardant360 system
§ Compared indirectly with TCGA dataset
38
39. Workflow
§ ctDNA (circulating tumor DNA) isolation from ~ 5 ml plasma
§ 5-30 ng DNA
§ Representing 1500-9900 “genome equivalents”
§ Molecular tagging – “bar coding”
§ Target capture and PCR amplification
§ Illumina sequencing platform
§ Noise filtering and Variant allele calls
§ Mutant allele frequency (MAF) able to differentiate between benign
“SNPs” and somatic variants
§ SNPs typically 50% or 100% of calls, true mutations typically 1% or
less
39
40. ctDNA vs TCGA
ctDNA (Plasma) TCGA (Tissue)
Number of patients 15,191 9,077
Number of samples 17,628 9,077
Patients with alteration 12,664 (83.4%) 8,492 (94%)
Alterations per sample (mean,
range)
3 (0-166) 2 (0-110)
Cancer types/stage 50+, stage 3 and 4 27, mostly stage 1 and 2
FDA approved therapy available 7,499 (49%)
40
44. Liquid Biopsy Conclusions
§ An appropriate alternative/additive to tissue testing
§ NGS is proper
§ Resistance mutations (in EGFR and ALK especially) may be
demonstrated (and does have relevance)
§ No particular bias (by me) towards Guardant (compared with
other available platforms)
