Abstract
Background Mutations in BRAF are rare oncogene mutations, found in 2% of non-small-cell lung cancers (nsclcs). Little information is available about the management of patients with BRAF-mutated nsclc, except for those included in clinical trials. We undertook the present study to assess the clinical characteristics, management, and outcomes of those patients in a real-life setting. Methods This retrospective multicentre observational study included all patients with BRAF-mutated nsclc diagnosed between January 2012 and December 2014. Results Patients (n = 59) from 24 centres were included: 57.6% men; mean age: 64.5 ± 14.5 years; 82% with a performance status of 0-1 at diagnosis; smoking status: 40.3% current, 32.6% former; 93% with adenocarcinoma histology; 75% stage iv; 78% with V600E mutations; 2 with EGFR and 2 with ALK co-mutations. Of the stage iv patients, 79% received first-line therapy (14.2% anti-BRAF), and 48% received second-line treatment (23.8% anti-BRAF). Response rate and progression-free survival were, respectively, 51.7% and 8.7 months [95% confidence interval (ci): 6.4 months to 15.2 months] for first-line therapy and 35.3% and 4.1 months (95% ci: 2 months to 10.9 months) for second-line treatments. The 2-year overall survival was 58.5% (95% ci: 45.8% to 74.8%). Outcomes in patients with stage iv nsclc harbouring BRAF V600E mutations (n = 32) did not differ significantly from those of patients with other BRAF mutations. Conclusions In this real-world analysis, most nsclc patients with a BRAF mutation were men and current or former smokers. Survival appears to be better in these BRAF-mutated patients than in nsclc patients without an oncogenic driver.

Abstract
BACKGROUND This randomized phase II-III trial sought to evaluate the efficacy and safety of adding bevacizumab (Bev) following induction chemotherapy (CT) in extensive small-cell lung cancer (SCLC). PATIENTS AND METHODS Enrolled SCLC patients received two induction cycles of CT. Responders were randomly assigned 1:1 to receive four additional cycles of CT alone or CT plus Bev (7.5 mg/kg), followed by single-agent Bev until progression or unacceptable toxicity. The primary end point was the percentage of patients for whom disease remained controlled (still in response) at the fourth cycle. RESULTS In total, 147 patients were enrolled. Partial response was observed in 103 patients, 74 of whom were eligible for Bev and randomly assigned to the CT alone group (n = 37) or the CT plus Bev group (n = 37). Response assessment at the end of the fourth cycle showed that disease control did not differ between the two groups (89.2% versus 91.9% of patients remaining responders in CT alone versus CT plus Bev, respectively; Fisher's exact test: P = 1.00). Progression-free survival (PFS) since randomization did not significantly differ, with a median PFS of 5.5 months [95% confidence interval (CI) 4.9% to 6.0%] versus 5.3 months (95% CI 4.8% to 5.8%) in the CT alone and CT plus Bev groups, respectively [hazard ratio (HR) for CT alone: 1.1; 95% CI 0.7% to 1.7%; unadjusted P = 0.82]. Grade ≥2 hypertension and grade ≥3 thrombotic events were observed in 40% and 11% of patients, respectively, in the CT plus Bev group. Serum vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and soluble VEGF receptor titrations failed to identify predictive biomarkers. CONCLUSION Administering 7.5 mg/kg Bev after induction did not improve outcome in extensive SCLC patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Concomitant administration of erlotinib with standard chemotherapy does not appear to improve survival among patients with non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC), but preliminary studies suggest that sequential administration might be effective. OBJECTIVE To assess the efficacy and tolerability of second-line sequential administration of erlotinib and docetaxel in advanced NSCLC. METHODS In an open-label phase II trial, patients with advanced NSCLC, EGFR wild-type or unknown, PS 0-2, in whom initial cisplatin-based chemotherapy had failed were randomized to sequential erlotinib 150 mg/d (day 2-16)+docetaxel (75 mg/m(2) d1) (arm ED) or docetaxel (75 mg/m(2) d1) alone (arm D) (21-day cycle). The primary endpoint was the progression-free survival rate at 15 weeks (PFS 15). Secondary endpoints included PFS, overall survival (OS), the overall response rate (ORR) and tolerability. Based on a Simon optimal two-stage design, the ED strategy was rejected if the primary endpoint was below 33/66 patients at the end of the two Simon stages. RESULTS 147 patients were randomized (median age: 60±8 years, PS 0/1/2: 44/83/20 patients; males: 78%). The ED strategy was rejected, with only 18 of 73 patients achieving PFS15 in arm ED at the end of stage 2 and 17 of 74 patients in arm D. In arms ED and D, respectively, median PFS was 2.2 and 2.5 months and median OS was 6.5 and 8.3 months. CONCLUSION Sequential erlotinib and docetaxel was not more effective than docetaxel alone as second-line treatment for advanced NSCLC with wild-type or unknown EGFR status.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Our main aim was to describe and explore a multidisciplinary approach to the management of elderly patients with cancer, who constitute a heterogeneous population. MATERIALS AND METHODS This descriptive study was performed between October 2009 and September 2010. Patients with cancer ≥ 70 years of age were included. Some underwent a simplified multidimensional geriatric assessment with a Charlson score administered by an oncologist, and the evaluation was submitted to a geriatrician who decided whether or not a complete a comprehensive geriatric assessment (CGA) (n=54) should be done. Another group of patients directly underwent a CGA (n=49), and a few patients included in a specific trial underwent a geriatric assessment (n=8). Each patient was classified as fit, vulnerable, or frail by a multidisciplinary team. RESULTS 111 patients were included (median age: 81 years [range: 65-96]; 60 males). The most frequent types of cancer were lung (n=29), gastrointestinal (n=20) and head and neck (n=14). Median Charlson score was 2.1 [range: 0-9]. Standard therapy was given to 37/41 (90%) fit, 19/41 (42%) vulnerable, and 6/29 (21%) frail patients. Thirteen frail patients received best supportive care. A social worker was mobilized for 2/41 (5%) fit, 14/41 (34%) vulnerable, and 11/29 (38%) frail patients. CONCLUSIONS Our study outlines the possibilities of cooperation between geriatricians and oncologists in a general hospital. This collaboration could modify therapeutic schedules especially in frail and vulnerable patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The optimal treatment of large-cell neuroendocrine carcinoma (LCNEC) of the lung remains unclear. Here, our primary objective was to assess the efficacy of cisplatin-etoposide doublet chemotherapy in advanced LCNEC. Accuracy of the pathological diagnosis and treatment toxicity were assessed as secondary objectives. PATIENTS AND METHODS Prospective, multicentre, single-arm, phase II study with a centralised review of treatment-response and pathological data. Patients had untreated performance status (PS) 0/1 stage IV/IIIB LCNEC and received cisplatin (80 mg/m22 d1) and etoposide (100 mg/m22 d1-3) every 21 days. RESULTS Eighteen centres included 42 patients (mean age, 59 ± 9 years; 69% men; median of four cycles/patient). At least one grade-3/4 toxicity occurred in 59% of patients (neutropaenia, thrombocytopaenia, and anaemia in 32%, 17%, and 12%, respectively). The median progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) were 5.2 months (95% confidence interval, CI, 3.1-6.6) and 7.7 months (95% CI, 6.0-9.6), respectively. The centralised pathologist review reclassified 11 of 40 (27.5%) patients: 9 as small-cell lung cancer, 1 as undifferentiated non-small-cell lung cancer, and 1 as atypical carcinoid. Survival data were not significantly changed by excluding the reclassified patients. CONCLUSIONS The pathological diagnosis of LCNEC is difficult. The outcomes of advanced LCNEC treated with cisplatin-etoposide doublets are poor, similar to those of patients with advanced small-cell lung carcinoma (SCLC).

Abstract
BACKGROUND There is no standard second-line treatment for small cell lung cancer (SCLC). The prognosis of these patients is poor and special attention should be paid to both quality of life and economic factors. METHODS The aim of this phase II randomised trial (GFPC0501) is to compare, in patients with progressive SCLC after first-line platinum based chemotherapy, oral multi drug chemotherapy (CCNU, cyclophosphamide, etoposide) and classical intravenous chemotherapy with cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin and vincristine (CAV) in terms of tolerability, efficacy (response rate, median one year survival and overall survival), quality of life and consumption of health care resources. Based on a two-stage Bryant and Day approach, this study will require a total of 138 patients with an interim analysis of the first 38. EXPECTED RESULTS This trial will provide information on several aspects of second-line chemotherapy for patients with SCLC. Thirty six patients have been enrolled in 16 centres by December 2006 and the results of the interim analysis will be available in June 2007.

Abstract
7631 Background: The optimal strategy in advanced NSCLC with stable disease is not well known. There is no published study assessing an early change of chemotherapeutic drugs in these patients. This study was designed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of early modification of chemotherapy doublets in patients with advanced non small cell lung cancer with stable disease (SD). Methods: Patients with stage IV NSCLC and measurable disease were included in a randomized phase II trial comparing for patients with stable disease after 2 cycles of a platin (P)-gemcitabine doublet (P d1: 75 mg/m2, gemcitabine 1 250 mg/m2 d1, d8 every three weeks) two subsequent cycles of this doublet (arm A) to a switch to another doublet (arm B): paclitaxel 100 mg/m2 d1, d8, d15, gemcitabine 1 250 mg/m2 d1, d8, every four weeks. Results: Between October 2003 and august 2006, 228 patients (pts) were enrolled (187 males, 41 females), median age 57 y (30–70). Evaluation (EVA) 1 showed 11.8% not assessable patients (NA), 19.3% with objective responses (OR), 25.9% with progressive diseases. 98 patients (43%) had stable diseases. 87 patients were randomized in the study. 48.3% with PS0, 51.7% with PS1 and a majority of adenocarcinoma (62.1%). 41.4% had only one metastatic site. There were no differences between the two groups. Efficacy at eva 2 is depicted above. Overall survival (OS) was similar between the two arms: 9.8 months (m) [7.0 - 14.2] for arm A, 9.2 m [7.4 - 10.5] for arm B. TTP was 5.4 m in arm A and 5.7 in arm B. There were 1 grade III/IV haematological toxicities in arm A (1.2%) and 2 in arm B (2.4%). There were 4 grade III/IV non haematological toxicities in arm A (4.8%) and 6 in arm B (7.3%). Conclusions: The switch between the two regimen is feasible without any major toxicities. Despite higher response rate in favour of the switch strategy, OS and TTP are similar between the two arms. No significant financial relationships to disclose. [Table: see text]

Abstract
Geriatric oncology has become recognised as a discrete speciality. Although there is a strong evidence base for using chemotherapy in patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer, cisplatin administration is associated with significant toxicity and the evaluation of the risk benefit ratio should be particularly rigorous in elderly patients. With aging, hepatic metabolism, renal excretion, volume of distribution and albumin concentration decrease and drug concentration increases. To plan treatment for elderly patients, a multidimensional geriatric evaluation including not only performance status and the identification of comorbidities, but also an assessment of creatinine clearance, functional (activities of daily living), mental (mini-mental state evaluation and geriatric depression index) and nutritional status should be undertaken. On the basis of this comprehensive geriatric assessment it should be possible to identify three groups of older cancer patients; fit, vulnerable and frail and thus to propose appropriate treatment. Accepting that the ideal form of geriatric assessment remains to be defined, a comprehensive assessment to allow individualised treatment in elderly patients is mandatory.

Abstract
7048 Background: Concurrent CT/TRT is the standard treatment for unresectable stage III NSCLC, but the optimal sequencing of TRT and CT is not well defined.Consolidation CT with taxane seems to be a good approach (SWOG 95–04). Methods: Unresectable stage III NSCLC pts (weight loss < 10%, ECOG PS 0–1, no supraclavicular lymph node or superior vena cava syndrome) were eligible. in Arm A, pts received 2 cycles of C 80 mg/m2 and P 200 mg/m2 followed by a concurrent CT/TRT including TRT as 66 Gy in 33 fractions and C 80 mg/m2 d1,29 and 57 and V d1,8,29,36,57 and 64. In Arm B, the same CT/TRT began on d1 followed by 2 cycles of C and P. The primary objective was response rate at the end of treatment, assessed by RECIST criteria. 132 pts were needed. Results: From 05/2002 to 03/2005, 133 pts were included by 35 centers. 5 pts were ineligible. Both groups were well-matched for baseline characteristics. 30 pts were stage IIIAN2 and 98 stage IIIB. Toxicities (106 pts analyzable) grade 3–4 by CTC and RTOG criteria (Arm A/Arm B) were: neutropenia 36%/41%, infection 11%/15%, esophagitis 6%/13%, pneumonitis 0%/1%. 5 toxic deaths were observed (2 sepsis, 1 massive hemoptysis, 1 post-irradiation pneumonitis, 1 esophageal fistula). In Arm A, objective response rate was 36% after ICT. At the end of treatment, response rate (Arm A/Arm B) was in intent to treat: progression 19%/19%, stable-disease 6%/11%, objective response 55%/48%. 13 pts were not evaluable for response in Arm A and 14 in Arm B [ table ]. Conclusions: Toxicities and response rates are similar in both arms, but ICT followed by CT/TRT appears to provide a better therapeutic outcome.

Abstract
PURPOSE To evaluate the efficacy and safety of gemcitabine and carboplatin in the treatment of previously untreated patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). METHODS A randomized phase II study was conducted by the Groupe Français de Pneumo-Cancérologie (GFPC) in 15 centers. The patients were randomized in either arm A (GC): gemcitabine 1250 mg/m2 on days 1 and 8+carboplatin AUC 6 mg/(mLmin) on day 1; or in arm B (VP): vinorelbine 30 mg/m2 weekly+cisplatin 80 mg/m2 on day 1. Treatment cycles were repeated every 3 weeks. RESULTS A total of 100 patients were randomized with stage IV or stage III NSCLC with malignant pleural effusion: 51 patients in arm A and 49 patients in arm B. A total of 190 cycles were administered in the GC arm and 172 cycles in the VP arm, with a median of four cycles per patient in each arm. The dose intensity was 84.9% for gemcitabine, 99.8% for carboplatin, 97.7% for cisplatin and 67.7% for vinorelbine. The objective response rates were 19.6% (95% CI, 9.8-33.1) for GC and 29.2% (95% CI, 17.0-44.1) for VP in an ITT analysis. The response duration was 169 days in arm A and 226 days in arm B. The TTP was similar with 140 days (GC) and 148 days (VP), respectively. Overall survival rates were 334 days in the GC combination and 304 days in the VP combination. Overall, the treatment was safe and toxicities observed were different in each arm: neutropenia was the most common toxicity in the VP treatment, whereas thrombocytopenia was more frequent in the GC combination. Anemia was similar in both arms. Non-haematologic toxicity was mild. One toxic death in arm A and three toxic deaths in arm B were observed. CONCLUSION In terms of response rate, the gemcitabine-carboplatin combination was not efficient enough to allow further phase III study. Survival data are in the same range as the standard arm. This chemotherapy is feasible and may represent an alternative to a standard cisplatin-based regimen, allowing treatment in an outpatient setting.

Docetaxel and concurrent radiotherapy after two cycles of induction chemotherapy with cisplatin and vinorelbine in patients with locally advanced non-small-cell lung cancer. A phase II trial conducted by the Groupe Francais de Pneumo-Cancerologie (GFPC). Lung Cancer 2005; 47:395-404. [PMID: 15713523 DOI: 10.1016/j.lungcan.2004.08.010] [Citation(s) in RCA: 10] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/12/2004] [Revised: 08/12/2004] [Accepted: 08/18/2004] [Indexed: 10/26/2022]
Abstract
CONTEXT The most satisfactory treatment for patients with locally advanced non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is combination chemotherapy-radiotherapy (CT-RT). The optimal treatment modalities remain to be determined. OBJECTIVE We conducted a multicenter phase II trial of the docetaxel-radiotherapy combination after induction chemotherapy with cisplatin-vinorelbine. The main endpoint was the objective response rate. PATIENTS AND METHODS Patient with inoperable stage locally advanced NSCLC received induction chemotherapy consisting of two cycles of cisplatin 100 mg/m2 on D1 and vinorelbine 25 mg/m2 on D1, D8, D15 and D22. Patients with responses or stable disease then received concurrent RT-CT consisting of 25 mg/m2/week docetaxel and single-fraction radiotherapy (66 grays (Gy) in 33 fractions) over 6.5 weeks. RESULTS Fifty-six patients were enrolled from 1 July 2000 to 31 December 2001. Sixteen patients left the trial after induction chemotherapy, eight for progression, five for toxicity, and two for intercurrent events. One patient underwent surgery after induction chemotherapy. In total, 40 of the 56 patients received RT-CT. Twelve (30%) of these 40 patients experienced grade III or IV pulmonary or esophageal toxicity. In the intention-to-treat analysis, the objective response rate was 46.4% (95% CI 33.0-60.2). The median time to progression was 6.2 months [1.1-26.0]. The median survival time was 13 months [0.3-44.9 months]. Nine patients progressed during RT-CT, six with brain metastases. CONCLUSION Weekly docetaxel with concurrent radiotherapy, following chemotherapy is acceptable. The tumor response rate is moderate. Further trials are required to determine the risk-benefit relationship of this treatment schedule, and the possible benefit of adding other cytotoxic drugs.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The potential absence of cross-resistance between cisplatin and docetaxel in non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) suggests that alternating regimens of cisplatin-based chemotherapy and docetaxel might increase the activity of chemotherapy in stage IV NSCLC. PATIENTS AND METHODS Randomized, multicenter, non-comparative phase II study in patients with stage IV NSCLC (Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance status of 0-2). Patients randomized to alternating treatment group (A) received docetaxel 100 mg/m2 on days (D) 1 and 43 alternating with cisplatin 100 mg/m2 on D22 and vinorelbine 30 mg/m2 on D22, D29 and D36. Those randomized to the control group (B) received cisplatin 80 mg/m2 on D1, D22 and D43 and vinorelbine 30 mg/m2 once a week from D1 to D57. Treatment was continued for a further 6 weeks in the event of objective response or stabilization. RESULTS Seventy patients were enrolled (group A: 38, group B: 32). More premature treatment discontinuations due to toxicity were observed in group A (median number of cycles: 3) than in group B (median number of cycles: 5). The intention-to-treat objective response rate was 10.8% [95% confidence interval (CI) 0.8% to 20.8%] in group A compared with 25% (95% CI 10% to 40%) in group B, the median time to treatment failure being 10.2 weeks and 17.3 weeks, respectively. The median survival and 1-year survival were 29.1 weeks and 39% in group A compared with 41.6 weeks and 42% in group B. Febrile neutropenia occurred in 5.9 and 4.9% of the cycles in group A and group B, respectively. Non-hematological toxicity was moderate in the two groups. CONCLUSIONS The addition of docetaxel alternating with cisplatin-vinorelbine did not enhance the activity of this combination. The development of sequential regimens might be a more promising way of exploiting the absence of cross-resistance between these two drugs.
