Background: Osimertinib is a third-generation, central nervous system (CNS) active EGFR-TKI, that potently and selectively inhibits EGFR-TKI sensitizing and EGFR T790M resistance mutations. In the primary analysis from the Phase III ADAURA study (NCT02511106), adjuvant osimertinib demonstrated a clinically meaningful, statistically significant, and practice-changing disease-free survival (DFS) benefit vs placebo in patients with completely resected EGFRm (ex19del/L858R) NSCLC ± adjuvant chemotherapy. In an updated DFS analysis, with 2 years additional follow-up, DFS and CNS DFS benefit with adjuvant osimertinib were sustained (stage II–IIIA DFS hazard ratio [HR] 0.23; 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.18, 0.30; stage IB–IIIA DFS HR 0.27; 95% CI 0.21, 0.34; stage II–IIIA CNS DFS HR 0.24; 95% CI 0.14, 0.42), with a tolerable safety profile observed over the extended treatment duration. Here, we report the planned final overall survival (OS) analysis from ADAURA. Methods: Eligible patients (aged ≥18 years [≥20 in Japan and Taiwan], WHO PS 0/1 with completely resected EGFRm (ex19del/L858R) stage IB, II or IIIA [AJCC/UICC 7th edition] NSCLC; adjuvant chemotherapy allowed) were randomized 1:1 to osimertinib 80 mg once daily or placebo until disease recurrence, treatment completion (3 years), or a discontinuation criterion was met. The primary endpoint was investigator-assessed DFS in stage II–IIIA. Key secondary endpoints: DFS in stage IB–IIIA, OS and safety. Data cut-off: January 27, 2023. Results: Globally, 682 patients were randomized; osimertinib n=339, placebo n=343. Adjuvant osimertinib significantly improved OS vs placebo. In patients with stage II–IIIA disease, OS HR was 0.49 (95% CI 0.33, 0.73; p=0.0004; 100/470 events, 21% maturity); 5-year OS rate was 85% with osimertinib vs 73% with placebo. Median follow-up for OS in stage II–IIIA was 59.9 months (osimertinib) and 56.2 months (placebo). In the overall population (stage IB–IIIA), OS HR was 0.49 (95% CI 0.34, 0.70; p<0.0001; 124/682 events, 18% maturity); 5-year OS rate was 88% with osimertinib vs 78% with placebo, with a median follow-up for OS of 60.4 months (osimertinib) and 59.4 months (placebo). Median OS was not reached in either population or treatment group. Conclusions: Adjuvant osimertinib demonstrated an unprecedented, highly statistically significant and clinically meaningful OS benefit in patients with EGFRm stage IB–IIIA NSCLC after complete tumor resection, with or without adjuvant chemotherapy. ADAURA is the first global Phase III study to demonstrate a statistically significant DFS and OS benefit with targeted treatment for patients with EGFRm stage IB–IIIA NSCLC.
