Trastuzumab deruxtecan in patients with metastatic non-small-cell lung cancer (DESTINY-Lung01): primary results of the HER2-overexpressing cohorts from a single-arm, phase 2 trial
Abstract
BACKGROUND
DESTINY-Lung01 is a multicentre, open-label, phase 2 study evaluating the antitumour activity and safety of trastuzumab deruxtecan, a HER2-directed antibody-drug conjugate, in patients with HER2-overexpressing or HER2 (ERBB2)-mutant unresectable or metastatic non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC). The results of the HER2-mutant cohort (cohort 2) have been reported elsewhere. Herein, we report the primary analysis of cohorts 1 and 1A, which aimed to evaluate the activity and safety of trastuzumab deruxtecan 5·4 mg/kg and 6·4 mg/kg in patients with HER2-overexpressing NSCLC.
METHODS
Patients aged 18 years or older with unresectable or metastatic (or both unresectable and metastatic) non-squamous NSCLC who had relapsed following or were refractory to standard treatment or for whom no standard treatment was available, with an HER2 immunohistochemistry score of 3+ or 2+ (without known HER2 mutations) and an Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance status score of 0 or 1, were enrolled at 20 specialist hospitals in France, Japan, the Netherlands, Spain, and the USA. Patients were assigned to cohorts sequentially, first to cohort 1, to receive trastuzumab deruxtecan 6·4 mg/kg (cohort 1), then to cohort 1A, to receive trastuzumab deruxtecan 5·4 mg/kg, both administered intravenously once every 3 weeks. The primary endpoint was confirmed objective response rate by independent central review and was assessed in the full analysis set, which included all patients who…
