A Phase II Study to Evaluate Neoadjuvant Osimertinib Therapy in Patients With Surgically Resectable, EGFR-Mutant Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer

This phase II trial studies how well osimertinib works in treating participants with stage
I-IIIA Epithelial Growth Factor Receptor (EGFR) -mutant non-small cell lung cancer before
surgery. Osimertinib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking mutant EGFR signaling in
cancer cells.

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:

I. To evaluate the efficacy of osimertinib as neoadjuvant therapy in patients with surgically
resectable EGFR-mutant non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).

SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:

I. To evaluate the safety of osimertinib given as neoadjuvant therapy in early stage
EGFR-mutant NSCLC participants.

II. To evaluate whether neoadjuvant osimertinib treatment increases the frequency of tumors
that are unresectable due to adverse events or disease progression.

III. To evaluate secondary measures of clinical efficacy in early stage EGFR-mutant NSCLC
patients treated with osimertinib induction therapy.

TERTIARY OBJECTIVES:

I. To evaluate long-term measures of efficacy in patients treated with osimertinib
neoadjuvant therapy.

II. To explore tissue and cell-free biomarkers that may be predictive of response or primary
resistance to osimertinib neoadjuvant therapy.

OUTLINE:

Participants receive osimertinib orally (PO) once daily (QD) on days 1-28. Treatment repeats
every 28 days for up to 2 cycles in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable
toxicity. Patients then undergo surgical resection of their cancer.

After completion of study treatment, participants are followed up at 30 days then every 3
months for up to 1 year.

Inclusion Criteria:

- Histologically or cytologically confirmed non-small cell lung cancer, performed on a
biopsy that occurred within the last 60 days

- Documented activating EGFR mutation (Exon 19 deletion, T790M, or L858R) on tumor
samples by Food and Drug Administration (FDA)-approved test

- Positron emission tomography (PET)-computed tomography (CT) within the last 60 days
showing radiographic stage I to IIIa lung cancer (mediastinal staging biopsy is
allowed but not required)

- Brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) (or CT if contraindication to MRI) within the
last 60 days showing no evidence of metastatic disease

cancer by an American Board of Thoracic Surgery certified surgeon

1.1 criteria

procedures to National Cancer Institute (NCI) Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse
Events (CTCAE) Version 4.03 grade 1

- Aspartate aminotransferase (AST) and alanine aminotransferase (ALT) =< 2.5 x upper
limit of normal (ULN)

- Bilirubin =< 1.5 x ULN, (Patients with documented Gilbert?s syndrome and conjugated
bilirubin within the normal range may be allowed into the study; in this event, it
will be documented that the patient was eligible based on conjugated bilirubin levels)

- Potassium and magnesium within normal range, patients may receive supplements to meet
this requirement

- Leukocytes > 3,000/mcL

- Hemoglobin >= 9 g/dL, with no blood transfusions in the 28 days prior to study entry

- Absolute neutrophil count > 1,500/mcL

- Platelets > 100,000/mcL

institutional normal

- Ability to swallow oral medications

- Women of childbearing potential (WoCBP) must have a negative serum pregnancy test
within 3 days prior to the first dose of study treatment and agree to use highly
effective contraception, during the study and for 90 days following the last dose of
osimertinib

- Women of childbearing potential (WoCBP): women between menarche and menopause who
have not been permanently or surgically sterilized and are capable of procreation

- Women NOT of childbearing potential: women who are permanently or surgically
sterilized or postmenopausal

- Permanent sterilization includes hysterectomy and/or bilateral oophorectomy
and/or bilateral salpingectomy but excludes bilateral tubal occlusion; tubal
occlusion is considered a highly effective method of birth control but does
not absolutely exclude possibility of pregnancy; (the term occlusion refers
to both occluding and ligating techniques that do not physically remove the
oviducts)

- Women who have undergone tubal occlusion should be managed on trials as if they
are of WoCBP (e.g. undergo pregnancy testing etc., as required by the study
protocol)

- Women will be considered postmenopausal if they are amenorrhoeic for 12 months
without an alternative medical cause; the following age-specific requirements
apply:

- Women under 50 years old will be considered postmenopausal if they have been
amenorrhoeic for 12 months or more following cessation of exogenous hormonal
treatments and with luteinizing hormone and follicle-stimulating hormone
levels in the postmenopausal range

- Women over 50 years of age will be considered postmenopausal if they have
been amenorrhoeic for 12 months or more following cessation of all exogenous
hormonal treatments

- Acceptable contraception methods are:

- Total sexual abstinence (abstinence must be for the total duration of the
trial and the follow-up period)

- Vasectomized sexual partner plus male condom (with participant assurance
that partner received post-vasectomy confirmation of azoospermia)

- Tubal occlusion plus male condom

- Intra-uterine device - provided coils are copper-banded, plus male condom

- Intra-uterine system (IUS) levonorgestrel IUS (e.g., Mirena), plus male
condom

condom

- Cerazette (desogestrel) plus male condom (Cerazette is currently the only
highly efficacious progesterone based pill)

- Unacceptable Contraception Methods The following methods are considered not to be
highly effective and are therefore not acceptable contraceptive methods:

- Triphasic combined oral contraceptives

- All progesterone only pills except, Cerazette

- All barrier methods, if intended to be used alone

- Non-copper containing intra-uterine devices

- Fertility awareness methods

- Coitus interruptus

- Men with a female partner of childbearing potential must have either had a prior
vasectomy agree to use effective contraception as described in the full protocol for
