In the single-arm CHRYSALIS trial, advanced non-small cell lung cancer patients harboring epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) exon 20 insertion (Exon 20ins) showed durable responses to amivantamab, an EGFR-MET bispecific antibody targeting tumors with EGFR Exon 20ins. This study compared the effectiveness of amivantamab to real-world systemic anti-cancer therapies in Japan. External control patients were selected by applying CHRYSALIS eligibility to Japanese patients from LC-SCRUM-Asia. External control patients were included for every qualifying line of therapy after platinum-based chemotherapy. Propensity score weighting was applied to external control patients to adjust for differences in baseline characteristics. Outcomes were compared between external control patients, and all and Asian-only CHRYSALIS patients using weighted Cox proportional hazards regression models for progression-free survival (PFS), time to next therapy (TTNT), and overall survival (OS), and generalized estimating equations with repeated measurements for overall response rate (ORR). One hundred fifteen CHRYSALIS and 94 external control patients were identified. Compared to external control patients, amivantamab-treated patients had significantly longer OS (median OS 19.88 vs 14.09 months, HR [95% CI] 0.59 [0.40–0.88]), PFS (median PFS 6.74 vs 4.73 months, HR 0.59 [0.45–0.78]), TTNT (median TTNT 12.16 vs 5.09 months, HR 0.39 [0.29–0.53]), and significantly higher ORR (41.7% vs 14.1%). Analyses of amivantamab-treated Asian patients (n = 61) showed similar clinical benefits. In the absence of clinical evidence from randomized clinical trials, this study reflects the benefit of amivantamab after platinum-based chemotherapy for advanced non-small cell lung cancer patients harboring EGFR Exon 20ins, compared to current real-world therapies.
