Dr. Hidehito Horinouchi, of the National Cancer Center Hospital in Japan, participated in the LUMINOSITY phase 2 (NCT03539536) clinical trial aiming to identify the c-Met protein-overexpressing NSCLC population best suited to Teliso-V monotherapy and expand selected groups for further evaluation.
For the purposes of this study, the researchers defined c-Met protein overexpression as greater than 25% tumor cells with more than 3+ staining (high:greater than or equal to 50% 3+; intermediate [int]: 25% to less than 50% 3+). Patients received 1.9 mg/kg intravenously every two weeks and the primary endpoint was Overall Response Rate (ORR).
In total, 172 patients with c-Met protein-OE EGFR WT nonsquamous NSCLC received at least one dose of Teliso-V, 57 of whom were Asian. A total of 48 Asian patients (c-Met high, n=26; c-Met intermediate, n=22) were evaluable for efficacy.
Median age in patients of Asian race was 65 years (range 47-82), 71% were male, and 67% had ECOG PS greater to or equal to 1. Overall, 92% received prior platinum therapy and 77% had prior immune checkpoint inhibitor therapy. For the Asian population, the ORR was 46.2% (c-Met high), 22.7% (c-Met intermediate), and 35.4% (overall). Median duration of response was 6.9 months (c-Met high), 8.3 months (c-Met intermediate), and 6.9 months (overall). The most common adverse events were hypoalbuminemia (32%), peripheral sensory neuropathy (23%), and pneumonia (21%).
“Compelling and durable responses were observed in patients of Asian race with c-Met protein-OE nonsquamous EGFR WT NSCLC, especially in patients with c-Met high; these results are similar to the overall population,” according to Dr. Horinouchi. He added that Teliso-V had an acceptable safety profile that was clinically manageable.
Teliso-V is being evaluated as a monotherapy in patients with previously treated c-Met overexpressing EGFR wild type nonsquamous NSCLC in the randomized Phase 3 study TeliMET NSCLC-01 (NCT04928846), which is currently enrolling.

These results were presented today at the International Association for the Study of Lung Cancer 2024 World Conference on Lung Cancer by Dr. Geoffrey Liu, from Princess Margaret Cancer Centre, Temerty School of Medicine, University of Toronto, Canada. ROS1 fusions occur in approximately 2 percent of all non-small cell lung cancers and occur when the ROS1 gene attaches to another gene that results in uncontrolled cell growth and tumors.
In the pivotal Phase II TRUST-I study, taletrectinib demonstrated high overall and intracranial response rates, durable responses, and activity against the G2032R acquired resistance mutation, combined with favorable safety and tolerability.
Dr. Liu today presented updated Phase II results in TKI-naive and TKI-pretreated patients from the global, pivotal TRUST-II study, evaluating the efficacy and safety of taletrectinib in patients with advanced ROS1+ NSCLC. The results included in the presentation are as of June 7, 2024.
TRUST-II is a global, multicenter, single-arm study of taletrectinib, in which all patients received 600 mg of taletrectinib orally once daily. At the time of analysis, 105 patients with advanced ROS1+ NSCLC were treated with taletrectinib in two cohorts: Cohort 1 consisted of patients who were TKI naive with ≤1 line of chemotherapy while Cohort 2 consisted of patients who were pretreated with 1 prior ROS1 TKI (crizotinib or entrectinib) and ≤1 line of chemotherapy.
Dr. Liu presented the efficacy results from 101 of the 105 patients in these two cohorts who were response evaluable. The primary endpoint is confirmed objective response rate and key secondary endpoints include duration of response, progression-free survival, and safety.
Cohort 1: TKI naive, ≤1 line of chemotherapy (54/55 patients were response evaluable) Cohort 2: TKI pretreated, 1 prior ROS1 TKI and ≤1 line of chemotherapy (47/50 patients were response evaluable) Baseline Brain Metastases 35% 56% Prior Chemotherapy 20% 38% Prior Crizotinib NA 80% Prior Entrectinib NA 20% Confirmed ORR 85% (95% CI: 73-93) 62% (95% CI: 46-75) Intracranial ORR 67% (95% CI: 30-93) 56% (95% CI: 30-80) Common Adverse Effects (all grades) Increased ALT (68%), Increased AST (67%), Diarrhea (57%)
“Taletrectinib continues to demonstrate encouraging overall responses, robust IC activity, and a favorable safety profile with low incidence of neurologic AEs in both TKI-naive and TKI-pretreated patients with ROS1+ NSCLC,” said Dr. Liu. “The efficacy and safety of taletrectinib in TRUST-II remains highly consistent with TRUST-I.”

The data was presented today by Dr. Jacob Sands, Dana-Farber Cancer Institute in Boston, Mass., at the International Association for the Study of Lung Cancer 2024 World Conference on Lung Cancer.
Patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer have limited treatment options after lung cancer progresses on first-line therapies. Datopotamab deruxtecan (Dato-DXd) is a novel trophoblast cell surface antigen 2-directed antibody-drug conjugate under clinical evaluation in multiple solid tumor types.
The pivotal TROPION-Lung01 trial in patients with previously treated advanced NSCLC had met its dual primary endpoint of improved progression-free survival versus docetaxel (hazard ratio [HR] 0.75; 95% CI, 0.62-0.91; P=0.004). Superior efficacy outcomes were observed with Dato-DXd in patients with non squamous lung cancer.
“Dato-DXd did not meet its overall survival endpoint, but the therapy has many positive upsides that make it an option for some patients with non-squamous NSCLC,” said Dr. Sands pointing out the multiple improved outcomes in the non-squamous group for Dato-DXd vs docetaxel including response rate (31.2% vs 12.8%), median PFS (5.5 vs 3.6 months), and a trend of improvement in OS (14.6 vs 12.3 months).
Dr. Sands reported baseline characteristics were balanced between arms, and median follow-up was 23.1 months for both treatment arms. Median overall survival was 12.9 months (95% CI, 11.0-13.9) with Dato-DXd versus 11.8 months (95% CI, 10.1- 12.8) with docetaxel (HR 0.94; 95% CI, 0.78-1.14; P =0.530) in the full analysis set.
However, Dr. Sands said that median overall survival was numerically longer in the prespecified nonsquamous subgroup with 14.6 months (95% CI, 12.4-16.0) with Dato-DXd vs 12.3 months (95% CI, 10.7-14.0) with docetaxel( HR 0.84; 95% CI, 0.68-1.05).
“The overall safety and efficacy profile of Dato-DXd supports its use as a potential new therapeutic option for patients with nonsquamous NSCLC who are eligible for subsequent therapy,” said Dr. Sands.

In the workshop, attendees will learn how to execute social media campaigns with measurable impact that achieve specific objectives that are clearly established. Participants will discover the differences in organic social media marketing versus paid social media efforts to drive donations, especially surrounding events like #GivingTuesday and other significant fundraising events for your nonprofit.
“I was so excited to receive the registration list and see some of the most prominent nonprofit organizations listed. I get great joy knowing that the social media skills I’ll be sharing in this three-hour, in-person workshop will have such a positive impact in our community and beyond. These strategies will help our nonprofit leaders to have more fundraising success and recruit more volunteers thus extending their reach with the amazing work they do at their respective organizations,” said Carnett, Faculty, Center for Nonprofit Leadership, California Lutheran University.
Learning outcomes from the three-hour in-person workshop include the following: 1. Identification of goals surrounding the utilization of social media marketing for your nonprofit (i.e. recruit volunteers, attract full-time staff, engage corporate donors, cultivate individual donors or promote upcoming fundraising events) 2. Clarity on the use cases for each social media platform as it relates to the objectives of your nonprofit. 3. Best practices in streamlining the development, editing, and scheduling of your social media content calendar utilizing social media scheduling tools with metrics. 4. Leveraging social media marketing as a component of a larger marketing or development campaign (i.e. collaborations with more highly visible creators and utilization of relevant hashtags). 5. Communicating social media impact to your Executive Leadership Team, Board, corporate donors or individual donors in alignment with your nonprofit fundraising objectives and mission match.
“The reach that social media provides makes it an essential tool for nonprofits to communicate with their audience and mobilize support. Yet, few nonprofits effectively leverage this opportunity. The CLU Center for Nonprofit Leadership is excited to offer this workshop with Lindsey Carnett to explore how nonprofits can harness the power of social media to increase organizational visibility, draw volunteers and supporters to their cause, and meaningfully convey mission-related messages,” said Brewster King, MBA, Associate Director, Center for Nonprofit Leadership, California Lutheran University.
California Lutheran University has just announced that Carnett, Faculty for California Lutheran University Center for Nonprofit Leadership, has joined its Board of Directors for the Community Leaders Association (CLA).

Recent air pollution exposure in the form of particles smaller than 2.5 micrometers (PM2.5) exposure may significantly impact lung cancer in women who have never smoked, with notable differences in stage IV diagnoses among EGFR+ patients, according to research presented today at the International Association for the Study of Lung Cancer (IASLC) 2024 World Conference on Lung Cancer.
SAN DIEGO, Sept. 10, 2024 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ — Recent air pollution exposure in the form of particles smaller than 2.5 micrometers (PM2.5) exposure may significantly impact lung cancer in women who have never smoked, with notable differences in stage IV diagnoses among EGFR+ patients, according to research presented today at the International Association for the Study of Lung Cancer (IASLC) 2024 World Conference on Lung Cancer.
The International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) categorized outdoor air pollution and its key component, particulate matter PM2.5, as Group 1 carcinogens in 2013, indicating that they cause lung cancer. Associations between tobacco use and lung cancer account for a majority of lung cancers. Still, researchers and public health experts have not been able to identify an association that explains why individuals who do not smoke or have never smoked are diagnosed with lung cancer.
“The timing and duration of PM2.5 exposure that are most relevant for the development of lung cancer and lung cancer risk have not been well characterized. The purpose of our study is to compare the associations between recent versus long-term cumulative PM2.5 exposure in men and women who had never smoked and lung cancer EGFR mutation status,” said Dr. Yixian Chen, a researcher at British Columbia Cancer Research Institute, Vancouver, Canada.
The research team collected data from newly diagnosed lung cancer patients who never smoked that included information on their residential history from birth to the date of diagnosis. Dr. Chen and the team then geocoded each residential address and analyzed high-resolution concentration estimates of PM2.5 exposure from satellite data, chemical transport models, and ground measurements within roughly 10 x 10 kilometer areas corresponding to the time the individual lived at each address. The team obtained annual exposure data going back to 1996 when accurate air pollution information became available globally.
A total of 255 patients with known EGFR mutation status were included in the analysis. Significant associations were observed between EGFR mutation and cancer stage among women (p=0.197 in men, p less than 0.001 in women). Patients diagnosed with stage IV lung cancer displayed higher proportions of EGFR mutations compared to those without. Notable differences were also identified in the cumulative 3-year PM2.5 exposure before diagnosis in women who never smoked with EGFR mutations compared to those without (e.g., 19.0 vs 17.3 μg/m3, p=0.031). This trend persisted when examining cumulative 5-year exposure (33.7 vs 29.5 μg/m3, p=0.024) before diagnosis, with higher exposure observed in the EGFR-mutation positive group (EGFR+). Surprisingly, these associations were not evident in men who never smoked. Moreover, long-term exposure, such as 10-, 15-, and 20-year cumulative exposure to PM2.5, was not associated with EGFR mutation status in either men or women.
“These findings suggest a potential impact of recent exposure to PM2.5 on lung cancer in people who never smoked, particularly among women, with significant differences in stage IV diagnoses among EGFR+ patients,” said Dr. Chen. “Further studies are needed to confirm if PM2.5 measurement over 3 to 5 years is adequate for lung cancer risk assessment.”
