Abstract

Durvalumab consolidation therapy for up to 12 months (PACIFIC regimen) is now standard of care in patients (pts) with unresectable Stage III non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) without disease progression after platinum-based chemoradiotherapy (CRT). PACIFIC-R assesses the effectiveness of durvalumab in this pt population in a real-life setting. PACIFIC-R (NCT03798535) is a large international, observational study in pts who received ≥1 dose of durvalumab (10 mg/kg Q2W) as part of an AstraZeneca-initiated expanded access program. Pts had completed platinum-based chemotherapy concurrent or sequential to radiotherapy within the previous 12 weeks without evidence of disease progression. Outcomes were assessed in the full analysis set (N=1155). Median time to durvalumab initiation after the end of RT was 52 days. Overall median durvalumab treatment duration was 337 days (11 months); 232 (20.1%) pts received treatment for >12 months (50 [4.3%] for >14 months). Pts received a median of 22 infusions. Reasons for/median time to treatment discontinuation included completion of treatment (47.6%/11.8 months; investigator decision per country protocol), disease progression (25.8%/5.1 months) and adverse event (AE; 17.5%/2.8 months). Pneumonitis was the most common AE leading to discontinuation (temporary: 5.1%; permanent: 8.7%). 214 (18.5%) pts had any-grade pneumonitis and/or interstitial lung disease (median time from durvalumab start: 74 days [2.4 months]). Of these, most events were moderate (8.8%) in severity; 2 (0.2%) and 1 (0.1%) pts had a life-threatening or fatal event, respectively. Interim analysis (51.8% of events) showed a median real-world PFS (rwPFS) of 22.5 months (95% CI, 19.7–25.5). rwPFS by baseline PD-L1 status and prior CRT will be included in the final presentation. These results demonstrate the effectiveness of consolidation durvalumab after CRT in a real-world cohort of pts with unresectable Stage III NSCLC; pneumonitis events were mostly moderate in severity. Additional data from an externally sponsored study with similar enrolment criteria in Spain will be included in the final presentation.
