Background: In advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), high Programmed-Death-1 Ligand (PD-L1) (>50%) expression demonstrate superior response and survival with immune checkpoint inhibitors compared to chemotherapy. We hypothesize that it is safe and feasible to substitute durvalumab instead of chemotherapy concurrently with radiotherapy (RT) in patients with Locally Advanced-NSCLC (LA-NSCLC) and high PD-L1. Methods: NRG-LU004 (NCT03801902) is a Phase I study for patients with stage II-III unresectable or inoperable, LA-NSCLC with PD-L1> 50% (Dako 22C3 or Ventana SP263) expression. There were safety and expansion phases with a primary endpoint of safety. Patients started with 1500 mg durvalumab Q4 weeks and thoracic RT within 2 weeks from 1^st infusion. Durvalumab continued once a month up to 1 year. In the safety cohort, 6 patients in cohort 1 were treated with accelerated fractionated RT (ACRT) to 60 Gy in 15 fractions, followed by a required safety hold for 90 days. During cohort 1 safety hold, cohort 2 patients were treated with conventional RT 60 Gy in 30 fractions (CONV) followed by a 60-day safety hold. A cohort advanced to the expansion phase to enroll 6 more patients if safety criteria (0-1 patients with a dose limiting toxicity [DLT]) were met. If both cohorts were deemed safe, patients would be randomized 1:1 to ACRT or CONV with safety defined as < 4 of 12 evaluable patients per arm experiencing a DLT. Feasibility was defined as at least 80% of patients in each arm receiving at least 80% of the planned dose of durvalumab during the first 8 weeks. Results: 24 evaluable patients enrolled between January 2019 and June 2021. No DLTs were reported in cohort 1, and 1 (unrelated bronchopulmonary hemorrhage leading to discontinuation of durvalumab) in cohort 2. Both safety cohorts advanced to the expansion phase. All but one patient (CONV) received RT per protocol/with an acceptable variation. At the time of analysis, 24% had received all 13 cycles of durvalumab. For the ACRT cohort, there were 4 grade 3, 1 grade 4 (lymphopenia), and 1 grade 5 AE (lung infection, assessed as unrelated to therapy). For CONV, there were 8 grade 3, 0 grade 4, and 1 grade 5 AE (respiratory failure, unrelated to therapy). For feasibility, 10 of 12 (85%) patients in the ACRT cohort received the second dose of durvalumab (2 not received due to shingles and unrelated death), while 9 of 12 (75%) of the CONV cohort received the second dose (reasons for not receiving: viral hepatitis, bronchopulmonary hemorrhage, and respiratory failure, all assessed as unrelated to therapy). Conclusions: Chemotherapy-free thoracic RT approaches (ACRT or CONV RT) are safe, when given with concurrent durvalumab in patients with PD-L1 high LA-NSCLC. A trial to compare immunoradiotherapy and consolidation durvalumab to standard chemoradiation and consolidation durvalumab is planned. Clinical trial information: NCT03801902.
