Brief Summary:
This phase III trial compares the effect of bevacizumab and osimertinib combination vs. osimertinib alone for the treatment of non-small cell lung cancer that has spread outside of the lungs (stage IIIB-IV) and has a change (mutation) in a gene called EGFR. The EGFR protein is involved in cell signaling pathways that control cell division and survival. Sometimes, mutations in the EGFR gene cause EGFR proteins to be made in higher than normal amounts on some types of cancer cells. This causes cancer cells to divide more rapidly. Osimertinib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking EGFR that is needed for cell growth in this type of cancer. Monoclonal antibodies, such as bevacizumab, may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Giving osimertinib with bevacizumab may control cancer for longer and help patients live longer as compared to osimertinib alone.

Detailed Description:

PRIMARY OBJECTIVE:

I. To evaluate progression-free survival (PFS) of osimertinib (AZD9291) and bevacizumab versus osimertinib (AZD9291) alone as first-line treatment for patients with metastatic EGFR-mutant lung cancers.

SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:

I. To evaluate overall survival (OS). II. To evaluate best objective response rate and duration of objective response.

III. To evaluate time to central nervous system (CNS) progression and CNS PFS. IV. To evaluate toxicity of the combination regimen.

CORRELATIVE OBJECTIVES:

I. To characterize mechanisms of resistance to osimertinib (AZD9291) and osimertinib (AZD9291) with bevacizumab first-line therapy through post-progression circulating tumor-derived deoxyribonucleic acid (ctDNA).

II. To assess for ctDNA clearance on study treatment and associate ctDNA clearance with clinical outcomes.

OUTLINE: Patients are randomized to 1 of 2 arms.

ARM A: Patients receive osimertinib orally (PO) once daily (QD) on days 1-21. Cycles repeat every 21 days in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

ARM B: Patients receive osimertinib PO QD on days 1-21 and bevacizumab intravenously (IV) over 30-90 minutes on day 1. Cycles repeat every 21 days in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

Patients undergo echocardiography (ECHO), multigated acquisition scan (MUGA), computed tomography (CT) and may undergo magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and blood sample collection on study.

After completion of study treatment, patients are followed up every 3 months for 10 years.

Outcome Measures
Go to 
Top of Page Study Description Study Design Arms and Interventions Outcome Measures Eligibility Criteria Contacts and Locations More Information

Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. Progression-free survival (PFS) [ Time Frame: From randomization to documented disease progression per Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) 1.1 or death from any cause, whichever occurs first, assessed up to 10 years ]
    Will be estimated using the Kaplan-Meier method, and Cox proportional hazards models will be used to estimate the treatment hazard ratios. PFS will use a logrank test stratified on the randomization stratification factors with a one-sided type I error rate of 2.5%.


Secondary Outcome Measures :
  1. Overall survival (OS) [ Time Frame: From randomization to death from any cause, assessed up to 10 years ]
    Will be estimated using the Kaplan-Meier method, and Cox proportional hazards models will be used to estimate the treatment hazard ratios. OS will be tested at the one-sided 10% level.

  2. Best objective response rate [ Time Frame: Up to 10 years ]
    Best objective response will be evaluated via RECIST 1.1 criteria. Will be compared using Fisher's exact tests with a one-sided type I error rate of 2.5%; multivariable logistic regression modeling will be used to adjust for the effect of any covariates that are associated with these categorical outcomes.

  3. Time to central nervous system progression [ Time Frame: From study randomization to evidence of central nervous system progressive disease, with death and progression as competing events, assessed up to 10 years ]
    Will be estimated using competing risks methodology, adjusting for death and progression as competing events. Regular central nervous system imaging will occur when patients are on treatment. After they discontinue study treatment, central nervous system imaging will be symptom-prompted during follow up.

  4. Central nervous system progression-free survival [ Time Frame: From study randomization to evidence of central nervous system progressive disease or death from any cause, whichever occurs first, assessed up to 10 years ]
    Will be estimated using the Kaplan-Meier method.

  5. Incidence of adverse events [ Time Frame: Up to 30 days after the last administration of investigational agent ]
    Toxicity will be determined using the Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE). Will be compared using Fisher's exact tests with a one-sided type I error rate of 2.5%; multivariable logistic regression modeling will be used to adjust for the effect of any covariates that are associated with these categorical outcomes.


Other Outcome Measures:
  1. Mechanisms of resistance to AZD9291 (osimertinib) and AZD9291 (osimertinib) with bevacizumab first-line therapy through post-progression circulating tumor-derived deoxyribonucleic acid (ctDNA) [ Time Frame: Up to 10 years ]
    Preliminary analyses of these data will utilize tests for association comparing the frequency of a particular genomic aberration at baseline and at progression (for example, using McNemar's test) and association between alterations and baseline characteristics (for example, using Fisher's exact test). More sophisticated analyses may include multivariable logistic regression modeling and/or competing risks analysis.

  2. ctDNA clearance on study treatment [ Time Frame: Up to 10 years ]
    Will assess ctDNA clearance on study treatment and associate ctDNA clearance with clinical outcomes. Cox regression analysis will be used to assess whether EGFR ctDNA clearance is an independent predictor for PFS (and OS), adjusted by treatment effect, the presence of brain metastasis (yes versus [vs.] no), EGFR exon 19 deletion/L858R vs other, Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status (0-1 vs 2) and other possible clinical and biological risk factors.
