Background: Afatinib is licensed for EGFR-mutant NSCLC without prior TKI<br />

therapy, but its efficacy and toxicity in patients unsuitable for platinumdoublet<br />

chemotherapy is unknown. One previous study suggested that<br />

TKIs could benefit medically unfit EGFR-mutant East Asian patients. We<br />

conducted the first such study in a Western population. Methods: Single<br />

arm phase-II trial. Eligible patients with histologically confirmed NSCLC,<br />

comorbidities precluding chemotherapy, with either: (i) confirmed EGFRmutation<br />

and PS 0-3, or (ii) suspected EGFR-mutation (no suitable tissue<br />

for genotyping or failed genotyping), but never/former-light smoker,<br />

adenocarcinoma and PS 0-2. Patients received oral afatinib (20-40mg daily)<br />

until disease progression/toxicity. CT scans performed 4 weeks after starting<br />

treatment then every 8 weeks in first year until progression, thereafter<br />

every 12 weeks. Primary endpoint was 6-month RECIST-defined progressionfree-survival<br />

(target 30%). Results: 39 patients were recruited across 14 UK<br />

centres (March 2013-August 2015). Median age 72 years (range 36-90); 30<br />

females, 9 males; 20 confirmed and 19 suspected EGFR-mutant; 8 former<br />

and 11 never smokers (among suspected EGFR-positives); 1,1,7,30 in each<br />

stage IA,IIIA,IIIB,IV; and 27 PS 0-1, 12 PS 2-3. As of July 2016, 7 patients were<br />

still taking afatinib (median time on drug 11 months, range 10-16), and 11<br />

stopped for toxicity. 23/39 patients had at least one grade ≥3 afatinib-related<br />

toxicity (all gd3, except two with gd4 [sepsis and hypokalemia], one fatal<br />

pneumonitis), mainly: n=13 diarrhoea; n=4 vomiting; n=3 dehydration; n=3<br />

mouth ulcer, all expected for afatinib, and unsurprising in this unfit group.<br />

The table shows efficacy. 6-month PFS rate (58%) far exceeded the 30%<br />

Lower 95%CI for all 6-month PFSrates<br />

exceed the pre-specified 15%<br />

minimum rate.<br />

13% patients survived ≥18 months.<br />

23% patients did not progress
