NSCLC IIITherapy
• Stage III is heterogeneous
• Prognosis dependent on lymph node involvement: N2 versus N3minimal, clinical, „bulky“
• Local therapy and systemic chemotherapy
• Optimal therapy for various subgroups unclear

Integration of targeted therapies into the therapy of NSCLC stage III
• Adjuvant therapy after complete tumor resection
– Combined with adjuvant chemotherapy
• Initial therapy in unresectable disease
– Combined with chemoradiotherapy
– Combined with radiotherapy
– Combined with chemotherapy
• Maintenance therapy
• Monotherapy or in combination

Targeted Therapies in advanced NSCLC
• EGFR-directed therapies
• Angiogenesis inhibitors
• Dual & multikinase inhibitors
• Others
![Page 6: Integration Of Targeted Therapies With Radiation Lung Cancer](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042607/554b3316b4c905d3088b513c/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
EGF-R as a target
• EGFR expression in 40-80% of NSCLC
• EGFR expression is associated with tumor proliferation, invasiveness, angiogenesis & shorter survival times
• EGFR expression associated with radioresistance & preclinical models suggest radiosensitization following inhibition of EGFR signaling
• Efficacy shown for – TKIs in pre-treated patients with advanced NSCLC– Cetuximab + chemotherapy in advanced NSCLC– Cetuximab + radiotherapy in head & neck cancer

EGFR Inhibitors
• Monoclonal antibodies– Cetuximab (ERBITUX®)– Matuzumab – Panitumumab
• Tyrosine kinase inhibitors– Gefitinib– Erlotinib– Vandetanib (ZD6474; EGFR, VEGFR)– Lapatinib (GW572016; EGFR, ErbB2)– others

NSCLC III Chemoradiotherapy + Cetuximab
• Based on
– the results of these phase II trials,
– the efficacy of cetuximab in combination with chemotherapy in advanced NSCLC, and
– the positive results in head & neck cancer,
a phase III trial is warranted:
Inoperable stage III NSCLC Cisplatin-based doublet (e.g. cis/etoposide, cis/vinorelbine) + radiotherapy ± cetuximabPrimary endpoint: overall survival

NSCLC IIIChemoradiotherapy + tyrosine kinase inhibitors
• Combination of chemoradiotherapy with TKIs is feasible
• Maintenance with gefitinib failed
• TKIs did not improve outcome of chemotherapy in advanced NSCLC
• Further trials ?

– Thalidomide
– Vandetanib (ZD6474)
– others

NSCLC III Chemoradiotherapy + Bevacizumab Socinski MA et al. ASCO 2008, abstract 7517
• Conclusions
– Incorporation of bevacizumab & erlotinib is feasible
– Esophagitis more common than previous experience
– Phase II continuing
• However, limitations due to
– Carboplatin-based protocol
– Complex trial design (2 targeted therapies)
– Interpretation will be difficult

Lung CancerChemoradiotherapy + angiogenesis inhibitors
• Carboplatin-based protocols
• Insufficient data
• Tacheoesophageal fistula, other toxicities?

BLP25 Liposome Vaccine in NSCLCButts CA et al. JCO 23, 6674, 2005
• Randomized, open-label phase II
• 171 pts. responding to 1st line chemotherapy: 65 pts with IIIB, 106 pts. with wet IIIB or IV
• L-BLP25 (BLP25 Liposome Vaccine): 8 weekly subcutaneous vaccinations:
• OS: all pts. 17.4 vs 13 months, p=0.11 IIIB pts. Not yet reached vs 13 months, p=0.07
2-year survival 60% versus 37%
• Phase III trial ongoing (START)

NSCLC IIITargeted therapy plus chemoradiotherapy
Summary
• New treatment options
• Integration is complex
• Results from phase II trials with cetuximab warrant a phase III trial chemoradiotherapy ± cetuximab
• Further studies on EGFR-directed tyrosine kinase inhibitors ?
• Insufficient data on angiogenesis inhibitors but toxicity might become an issue
• Phase III vaccination trial ongoing (START)
• Simple but relevant trials required
