Abstract

Clinical trials frequently include multiple end points that mature at different times. The initial report, typically based on the primary end point, may be published when key planned co-primary or secondary analyses are not yet available. Clinical Trial Updates provide an opportunity to disseminate additional results from studies, published in JCO or elsewhere, for which the primary end point has already been reported.Tarlatamab, a bispecific T-cell engager immunotherapy targeting delta-like ligand 3, has shown durable anticancer activity and manageable safety in previously treated small cell lung cancer (SCLC) in DeLLphi-300 phase I and DeLLphi-301 phase II trials. Here, we report extended follow-up of DeLLphi-300 (median follow-up, 12.1 months [range, 0.2-34.3]) in fully enrolled cohorts treated with tarlatamab ≥10 mg dose administered once every two weeks, once every three weeks, or once on day 1 and once on day 8 of a 21-day cycle (N = 152). Overall, the objective response rate (ORR) was 25.0%; the median duration of response (mDOR) was 11.2 months (95% CI, 6.6 to 22.3), and the median overall survival (mOS) was 17.5 months (95% CI, 11.4 to not estimable [NE]). Among 17 patients receiving 10 mg tarlatamab once every two weeks, the ORR was 35.3%, the mDOR was 14.9 months (95% CI, 3.0 to NE), the mOS was 20.3 months (95% CI, 5.1 to NE), and 29.4% had sustained disease control with time on treatment ≥52 weeks. No new safety signals were identified. In modified Response Assessment in Neuro-Oncology Brain Metastases analyses, CNS tumor shrinkage of ≥30% was observed in 62.5% of patients (10 of 16) who had a baseline CNS lesion of ≥10 mm, including in a subset of patients with tumor shrinkage long after previous brain radiotherapy. In DeLLphi-300 extended follow-up, tarlatamab demonstrated unprecedented survival and potential findings of intracranial activity in previously treated SCLC.
