A Study of Atezolizumab as First-line Monotherapy for Advanced or Metastatic Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer

Phase 2
Completed
Conditions
Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer
Interventions
Registration Number
NCT02848651
Lead Sponsor
Genentech, Inc.
Brief Summary

This was a Phase II, open-label, prospective, multicenter study designed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of single-agent atezolizumab as a first-line therapy in participants with locally advanced or metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). In addition, the primary biomarker objective was to measure blood tumor mutational burden (bTMB) and evaluate whether it can predict for improved clinical outcome with atezolizumab.

Arm && Interventions
GroupInterventionDescription
AtezolizumabAtezolizumabParticipants received 1200 milligrams (mg) of atezolizumab administered by intravenous infusion every 21 days until disease progression, loss of clinical benefit, or unacceptable toxicity (up to a total of 2 years of atezolizumab treatment).
Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Percentage of Participants With Objective Response Per Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors Version 1.1 (RECIST v1.1) as Determined by InvestigatorBaseline up to 32 months

Investigator-assessed objective response rate was defined as the proportion of participants who had a confirmed best overall response of either PR or CR per RECIST v1.1.

Progression-Free Survival (PFS) Per RECIST v1.1 as Determined by Investigator, by Positive Versus Negative bTMB GroupsBaseline up to 32 months

Investigator-assessed PFS by RECIST v1.1 was defined as the time from the first dose of study drug to the time of PD or death from any cause during the study, whichever occurred first.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Progression-Free Survival (PFS) Per RECIST v1.1 as Determined by InvestigatorBaseline up to 32 months

Investigator-assessed PFS by RECIST v1.1 was defined as the time from the first dose of study drug to the time of PD or death from any cause during the study, whichever occurred first.

Duration of Response (DOR) Per RECIST v1.1 as Determined by InvestigatorBaseline up to 32 months

Investigator-assessed DOR by RECIST v1.1 was defined as the time from initial occurrence of documented CR or PR until documented disease progression as determined by the investigator, or death, whichever occurred first.

Percentage of Participants With Objective Response (Per RECIST v1.1) by Various bTMB QuantilesBaseline up to 32 months

Objective response rate was defined as the proportion of participants who had a confirmed best overall response of either PR or CR per RECIST v1.1.

Disease Control Rate (DCR) Per RECIST v1.1 as Determined by InvestigatorBaseline up to 32 months

Confirmed disease control rate (cDCR) was defined as the rate of patients with CR or PR as the best response, or SD maintained for 24 weeks, per RECIST v1.1.

Overall Survival (OS)From baseline until death (up to 32 months)

OS was defined as the time from the first dose of study drug to the time of death from any cause during the study.

Percentage of Participants With Adverse EventsBaseline up to 32 months

Adverse events were defined as any untoward medical occurrence in a subject administered atezolizumab, regardless of causal attribution.

Percentage of Participants Who Are Alive and Progression-Free (Per RECIST v1.1) at 6, 9, 12, and 18 Months by Various bTMB QuantilesMonths 6, 9, 12, and 18

A summary of the number of patients at risk and survival rate for the time points of 6, 9, 12, and 18 months.

OS by Various bTMB Cutoff Points 16 and 20From baseline until death (up to 32 months)

OS was defined as the time from the first dose of study drug to the time of death from any cause during the study.
