New longer-term data from the MARIPOSA study confirm superior outcomes of chemotherapy-free RYBREVANT® plus LAZCLUZEtm regimen compared to osimertinib monotherapy as first-line therapy
Results from an interim analysis featured in late-breaker oral presentation at WCLC
SAN DIEGO, Sept. 8, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Johnson & Johnson (NYSE: JNJ) today announced longer follow-up data from the landmark Phase 3 MARIPOSA study which showed first-line treatment with RYBREVANT® (amivantamab-vmjw) combined with LAZCLUZEtm (lazertinib) provided consistent benefit across long-term outcomes compared to osimertinib monotherapy in adult patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) with epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) exon 19 deletions (ex19del) or L858R substitution mutations. The data show a strong and improving overall survival (OS) trend favoring RYBREVANT® plus LAZCLUZEtm at approximately three years of follow-up. These results were presented in a late-breaking oral presentation at the International Association for the Study of Lung Cancer (IASLC) 2024 World Conference on Lung Cancer (WCLC) (Abstract #1146).1
At three years (a median follow-up of 31.1 months), 61 percent of patients receiving RYBREVANT® plus LACLUZEtm were alive compared to 53 percent of those treated with osimertinib based on an analysis performed at the request of a health authority (Median OS not estimable vs 37.3 months; hazard ratio [HR], 0.77; [95 percent confidence interval [CI], 0.61-0.96]; nominal P=0.019). Overall survival will continue to be assessed with longer term follow-up as a key secondary endpoint. The primary efficacy outcome measure was progression-free survival (PFS) as assessed by blinded independent central review (BICR).1
"By combining the multi-targeted mechanism of RYBREVANT with LAZCLUZE, a central nervous system-penetrant third-generation tyrosine kinase inhibitor, we are advancing a chemotherapy-free regimen for the first-line treatment of patients with EGFR-mutant NSCLC. This approach blocks EGFR and MET pathways and leverages the immune system, offering patients an opportunity for prolonged benefits," said Shirish M. Gadgeel, M.D., Chief of Division of Hematology and Oncology, Associate Director at Henry Ford Cancer Institute and presenting author.* "Even more encouraging is the marked improvement in the hazard ratio and the ongoing separation of survival curves, showing an eight percent improvement at three years for RYBREVANT plus LAZCLUZE compared to osimertinib. This supports the long-term benefit of the combination as a first-line treatment option in this setting."
Results further showed RYBREVANT® plus LAZCLUZEtm demonstrated a trend toward improved central nervous system disease control compared to osimertinib at three years (HR, 0.82; [95 percent CI, 0.62-1.09]; nominal P=0.165). At the three-year landmark, intracranial PFS was double for RYBREVANT® plus LAZCLUZEtm versus osimertinib (38 percent vs 18 percent, respectively). More patients remained on treatment at three years with the RYBREVANT® combination compared to osimertinib (40 percent vs 29 percent, respectively; HR, 0.80; [95 percent CI, 0.68-0.96]; nominal P=0.014). Additionally, more patients receiving RYBREVANT® and LAZCLUZEtm at the three-year follow-up had not started a subsequent therapy versus osimertinib (45 percent vs 32 percent, respectively; HR, 0.77; [95 percent CI, 0.65-0.93]; nominal P=0.005). Progression-free survival after first subsequent therapy was 57 percent for the RYBREVANT® combination compared to 49 percent for osimertinib (HR, 0.73; [95 percent CI, 0.59-0.91]; nominal P=0.004).1
"Promising results like these presented at WCLC reinforce our mission to improve the lives of patients diagnosed with lung cancer," said Joshua Bauml, M.D., Vice President, Lung Cancer Disease Area Stronghold Leader, Johnson & Johnson Innovative Medicine. "We are encouraged by the favorable overall survival trend observed with RYBREVANT plus LAZCLUZE and are eager to see how these data evolve as we continue to follow patients over time."
As previously reported in the MARIPOSA study, the safety profile was consistent with the safety profiles of the individual treatments. The rate of discontinuation of all study treatments due to treatment-related adverse events for RYBREVANT® plus LAZCLUZEtm was 10 percent. The rate of interstitial lung disease (including pneumonitis) was less than three percent in both arms.2
In August 2024, RYBREVANT® combined with LAZCLUZEtm was approved following a Priority Review by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration as a first-line therapy for patients with EGFR-mutated NSCLC based on the favorable efficacy and safety profile demonstrated in this study.
About the MARIPOSA Study
MARIPOSA (NCT04487080), which enrolled 1,074 patients, is a randomized, Phase 3 study evaluating RYBREVANT® in combination with LAZCLUZEtm versus osimertinib and versus LAZCLUZEtm alone in first-line treatment of patients with locally advanced or metastatic NSCLC with EGFR ex19del or L858R substitution mutations. The primary endpoint of the study is PFS (using RECIST v1.1 guidelines) as assessed by BICR. Secondary endpoints include OS, overall response rate (ORR), duration of response (DOR), second progression-free survival (PFS2) and intracranial PFS.3

About LAZCLUZEtm
In 2018, Janssen Biotech, Inc., entered into a license and collaboration agreement with Yuhan Corporation for the development of LAZCLUZEtm (marketed as LACLAZA in Korea). LAZCLUZEtm is an oral, third-generation, brain-penetrant EGFR TKI that targets both the T790M mutation and activating EGFR mutations while sparing wild-type EGFR. An analysis of the efficacy and safety of LAZCLUZEtm from the Phase 3 LASER301 study was published in The Journal of Clinical Oncology in 2023.
About Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer
Worldwide, lung cancer is one of the most common cancers, with NSCLC making up 80 to 85 percent of all lung cancer cases.19,20 The main subtypes of NSCLC are adenocarcinoma, squamous cell carcinoma, and large cell carcinoma.21 Among the most common driver mutations in NSCLC are alterations in EGFR, which is a receptor tyrosine kinase controlling cell growth and division.22 EGFR mutations are present in 10 to 15 percent of Western patients with NSCLC with adenocarcinoma histology and occur in 40 to 50 percent of Asian patients.21,22,23,24,25,26 EGFR ex19del or EGFR L858R mutations are the most common EGFR mutations.27 The five- year survival rate for all people with advanced NSCLC and EGFR mutations treated with EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) is less than 20 percent.28,29 EGFR exon 20 insertion mutations are the third most prevalent activating EGFR mutation.30 Patients with EGFR exon 20 insertion mutations have a real-world five-year overall survival (OS) of eight percent in the frontline setting, which is worse than patients with EGFR ex19del or L858R mutations, who have a real-world five-year OS of 19 percent.31
