Post-Kidney Transplant Cancer: A Real-World Retrospective Analysis From a Single Italian Center.

ABSTRACT: We describe the epidemiology of cancer after kidney transplantation (KTx), investigating its risk factors and impact on therapeutic management and survival in KTx recipients (KTRs). The association between modification of immunosuppressive (IS) therapy after cancer and survival outcomes was analyzed. We collected data from 930 KTRs followed for 7 [1-19] years. The majority of KTRs received KTx from a deceased donor (84%). In total, 74% of patients received induction therapy with basiliximab and 26% with ATG. Maintenance therapy included steroids, calcineurin inhibitors, and mycophenolate. Patients with at least one cancer (CA+) amounted to 19%. NMSC was the most common tumor (55%). CA+ were older and had a higher BMI. Vasculitis and ADPKD were more prevalent in CA+. ATG was independently associated with CA+ and was related to earlier cancer development in survival and competing risk analyses (p = 0.01 and <0.0001; basiliximab 89 ± 4 vs. ATG 40 ± 4 months). After cancer diagnosis, a significant prognostic impact was derived from the shift to mTOR inhibitors compared to a definitive IS drug suspension (p = 0.004). Our data confirm the relevance of cancer as a complication in KTRs with ATG as an independent risk factor. An individualized choice of IS to be proposed at the time of KTx is crucial in the prevention of neoplastic risk. Finally, switching to mTORi could represent an important strategy to improve patient survival.

Project description:BackgroundInetetamab is a novel antibody targeting human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) developed in China. Due to its optimized antibody-dependent cell-mediated cytotoxicity effect compared with trastuzumab, it has shown good efficacy and safety in the treatment of HER2-positive advanced breast cancer (ABC).ObjectivesThis study aimed to investigate the efficacy and safety of inetetamab combination therapy in the treatment of HER2-positive ABC in real-world clinical practice.DesignRetrospective study.MethodsA total of 133 patients with HER2-positive ABC who were treated with inetetamab-based regimens between March 2020 and January 2024 were retrospectively included in this study. The main endpoint was median progression-free survival (mPFS). The secondary endpoints included objective response rate (ORR), disease control rate (DCR), and safety.ResultsThe study included 133 HER2-positive ABC patients, and the median age was 55 years. The mPFS was 8.0 (6.7-9.3) months. The ORR was 50.4%, while the DCR was 88.7%. The mPFS for patients receiving inetetamab-based therapy as first to second, third to fourth, and later lines of metastatic treatment were 14.0, 7.0, and 6.0 months, respectively. Patients treated with inetetamab plus pyrotinib plus chemotherapy, especially with capecitabine, had the best outcomes (mPFS = 14.0 months). Multivariate analysis revealed that prior HER2-TKI treatment was significantly associated with worse PFS (hazard ratios 2.829, 95% confidence interval 1.265-6.328, p = 0.011). Subgroup analysis indicated that patients without visceral metastases had significantly better PFS (14.0 months vs 8.0 months, p = 0.003). The overall incidence of any grade adverse events (AEs) was 100%, with most being grades 1-2. Severe complications included neutropenia (37.6%) and leukopenia (33.1%).ConclusionsInetetamab-based combination therapy shows promising efficacy and good safety in patients with HER2-positive ABC. It is one of the late-line treatment options for Chinese patients with HER2-positive ABC.

Project description:BackgroundThe efficacy and safety of pazopanib in patients diagnosed with metastatic renal cell carcinoma (mRCC) have been demonstrated by a Chinese subgroup analysis of the COMPARZ (Pazopanib Versus Sunitinib in the Treatment of Locally Advanced and/or Metastatic Renal Cell Carcinoma) trial. However, the real-world data are still unknown. This single-center, retrospective study was designed to verify the real-world effects of pazopanib in Chinese patients with mRCC.MethodsPatients with mRCC and a clinical decision to initiate pazopanib as first-line therapy were eligible. The primary endpoint was progression-free survival (PFS), with overall survival (OS), objective response rate (ORR), and safety being evaluated as secondary endpoints. The effectiveness according to the International Metastatic Renal Cell Carcinoma Database Consortium (IMDC) risk model, number of risk factors in the intermediate risk group, age, Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status (PS), and the number and site of organ metastasis were also assessed.ResultsA total of 32 patients were enrolled, including 23 (71.9%) males and 9 (28.1%) females. The median age was 57 years (range 29-75 years). With a median follow-up time of 23.8 months, a median PFS of 18.3 months, and an ORR of 37.5%. Median OS was not reached, and the 1-, 2-, and 3-year overall survival rates were 90.6%, 78.1, and 65.6%, respectively. According to IMDC risk model, 37.5% were placed in the favorable risk (FR) subgroup, 56.2% (the majority) were placed in the intermediate risk (IR) subgroup, and 6.3% were placed in the poor risk (PR) subgroup. Compared with the IR and PR groups, the FR group achieved the best ORR (58.3%) and median PFS (22.1 months). Having 1 risk factor, ECOG PS <2, 1 organ metastasis site, and only lung metastasis associated with a higher ORR and better median PFS. The IMDC risk model and number of metastases were associated with PFS. The most common adverse events were change in hair color (69.0%), diarrhea (63%), and hypertension (50%).ConclusionsPazopanib showed efficacy and safety in real-world Chinese mRCC patients.
