IPASS conclusions: updated survival analysis
• Mature OS (secondary endpoint) was similar for gefitinib and carboplatin / paclitaxel with no statistically significant difference between treatments in the overall population
• A consistent OS outcome was observed across clinical subgroups with no significant difference in OS
• There was no significant difference in OS across the EGFR biomarker subgroups
• The true effect of the initial randomised treatment on OS is likely to have been confounded by the subsequent therapy, in particular the switching of patients to the alternative study therapy
Yang CH et al. ESMO 2010
![Page 22: Vera Hirsh, MD, FRCPC McGill University Health Centre Montreal, QC, CANADA](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062301/568135da550346895d9d4a9b/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
IPASS conclusions: overall summary
• IPASS has demonstrated that positive EGFR mutation status is predictive of benefit from treatment with gefitinib over chemotherapy in terms of PFS, ORR and HRQoL
• PFS is an endpoint unlikely to be confounded by subsequent treatments, therefore is a more appropriate endpoint for evaluation of treatment effect in first-line treatment of NSCLC than OS
• IPASS has demonstrated the importance of biomarker testing in NSCLC, making a significant step towards personalised medicine
• IPASS has changed clinical practice and treatment guidelines for patients with advanced NSCLC who harbour an EGFR mutation
HRQoL, health-related quality of life; NSCLC, non-small-cell lung cancer; ORR, objective response rate

Patient reported outcomes
*All scores were estimated from the EORTC QLQ-LC13 except for “Short of Breath” and “Pain” which used EORTC QLQ-C30; improved means that EORTC symptom scores were ≥10 points lower than baseline at any time during the study
**EORTC cough, dyspnea and pain endpoints as pre-specified in the trial protocol

ResultsHigh degree of efficiency observed:
- For all patients:
Confirmed ORR: 60%
DCR: 86%
Median PFS: 14 months
Median OS: 24 months
-For patients with del19/L858R
Confirmed ORR: 64%
DCR: 88%
Median PFS: 15 months
-Similar efficacy results in the first and second-line settings and across all subgroups-Similar magnitude of efficacy in patients with L858R as with del19 mutations

Conclusion
• EGFR-TKIs for EGFR-mutated tumours are becoming standard Rx in first-line metastatic NSCLC
• BIBW 2992 activity in NSCLC, especially in EGFR-mutated tumours
- Active against receptors that are resistant to first generation inhibitors (e.g.EGFRL858R/T790M)
