Abstract MET amplification is a common mechanism of resistance to EGFR-TKI treatment, observed in ~20% of EGFR-mutant NSCLCs after third-generation EGFR-TKIs (including osimertinib). Combined MET/EGFR inhibition is, therefore, a compelling therapeutic approach. Savolitinib (volitinib, HMPL-504, AZD6094) is an oral, potent and highly selective MET-TKI. Preliminary findings from the expansion cohort of the open-label, multi-center, Phase Ib TATTON study (NCT02143466) demonstrated an acceptable safety profile and preliminary anti-tumor activity with savolitinib plus osimertinib in pts with EGFR-mutant, MET-amplified NSCLC. Here we report updated interim data from this expansion phase, in a cohort of pts who progressed on prior third-generation EGFR-TKI. Pts eligible for the analysis were aged ≥18 years, WHO performance status 0-1, had locally advanced or metastatic EGFR-mutant NSCLC, and had progressed on ≥1 prior EGFR-TKI (including a third-generation EGFR-TKI). Pts could initially be enrolled based on local testing for MET-positive status (NGS, FISH [MET gene copy ≥5 or MET/CEP7 ratio ≥2], or immunohistochemistry [+3 in ≥50% of tumor cells]). Pts received osimertinib 80 mg QD plus savolitinib 600 mg QD. The primary objective was safety and tolerability; secondary objectives included preliminary assessment of anti-tumor activity (RECIST v1.1). At data cut-off (Feb 2018), 48 pts had received study treatment. Median age was 59 years (range 28-82), 27 (56%) pts were male, and 37 (77%) pts were Asian. The most common (≥20%) all-causality AEs were nausea (n=25, 52%), vomiting (n=18, 38%), diarrhea (n=13, 27%), fatigue (n=12, 25%), decreased appetite (n=11, 23%), and pyrexia (n=10, 21%). Treatment-related AEs were reported for 43 (90%) pts, and classified as CTCAE grade ≥3 in 11 (23%) pts. Serious AEs were reported in 14 (29%) pts. Ten (21%) and 5 (10%) pts discontinued savolitinib and osimertinib due to AEs, respectively. Two (4%) pts died, both considered unrelated to study treatment by the investigator. At data cut-off, 43 pts who had ≥1 post baseline scan (or who progressed, withdrew or died prior to first post baseline scan) were eligible for efficacy analysis. Objective response rate was 28% (12 pts, all confirmed partial responses). Median duration of response was 9.7 months. Osimertinib plus savolitinib had an acceptable safety profile and demonstrated preliminary anti-tumor activity. These findings support further investigation of this combination in this setting. SAVANNAH (NCT03778229) is a Phase II study investigating osimertinib plus savolitinib in pts with EGFR-mutant, MET-amplified NSCLC who have progressed on osimertinib. Citation Format: Lecia V.
