A phase I trial of everolimus in combination with 5-FU/LV, mFOLFOX6 and mFOLFOX6 plus panitumumab in patients with refractory solid tumors.

ABSTRACT: This phase I study investigated the safety, dose-limiting toxicity, and efficacy in three cohorts all treated with the mTOR inhibitor everolimus that was delivered (1) in combination with 5-fluorouracil with leucovorin (5-FU/LV), (2) with mFOLFOX6 (5-FU/LV + oxaliplatin), and (3) with mFOLFOX6 + panitumumab in patients with refractory solid tumors.Patients were accrued using a 3-patient cohort design consisting of two sub-trials in which the maximum tolerated combination (MTC) and dose-limiting toxicity (DLT) of everolimus and 5-FU/LV was established in Sub-trial A and of everolimus in combination with mFOLFOX6 and mFOLFOX6 plus panitumumab in Sub-trial B.Thirty-six patients were evaluable for toxicity, 21 on Sub-trial A and 15 on Sub-trial B. In Sub-trial A, DLT was observed in 1/6 patients enrolled on dose level 1A and 2/3 patients in level 6A. In Sub-trial B, 2/3 patients experienced DLT on level 1B and subsequent patients were enrolled on level 1B-1 without DLT. Three of six patients in cohort 2B-1 experienced grade 3 mucositis, and further study of the combination of everolimus, mFOLFOX6 and panitumumab was aborted. Among the 24 patients enrolled with refractory metastatic colorectal cancer, the median time on treatment was 2.7 months with 45 % of patients remaining on treatment with stable disease for at least 3 months.While a regimen of everolimus in addition to 5-FU/LV and mFOLFOX6 appears safe and tolerable, the further addition of panitumumab resulted in an unacceptable level of toxicity that cannot be recommended for further study. Further investigation is warranted to better elucidate the role which mTOR inhibitors play in patients with refractory solid tumors, with a specific focus on mCRC as a potential for the combination of this targeted and cytotoxic therapy in future studies.

Project description:BackgroundCombination therapy with the administration of GW5074 and sorafenib significantly induced necrotic death in various cancer cells in vivo, as well as prolonging the survival of an animal disease model due to significant suppression of the primary and metastatic lesions. We sought to determine the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, and anti-tumor activity of this co-administration therapy in patients with refractory advanced solid cancers.MethodsTwelve patients were enrolled. Eligible subjects received different dosages of GW5074 in one of the three dose cohorts (Cohort 1: 750 mg daily, Cohort 2: 1500 mg daily, Cohort 3: 750 mg twice daily) plus 200 mg of sorafenib daily to determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and dose limiting toxicities (DLT) at phase 1. Furthermore, the expression level of phosphorylated DAPKS308 in primary tumor, metastatic tumor, and circulating tumor cells (CTC) were evaluated to investigate the relationship between biomarker and the efficacy profile.ResultsAmong the 12 enrolled patients in this phase 1 trial, most adverse effects (AE) were grade 1, with two being grade 3. The most frequent AE of all grades were weight loss and hypertension, occurring in 16.7% of participants. Eight patients (66.7%) had the disease controlled by receiving co-administration therapy of GW5074 and sorafenib. GW5074 was found to have poor absorption, as increasing the dosage did not result in a significant increase in the bioavailability of GW5074 in subjects. Furthermore, the expression level of phosphorylated DAPKS308 in tumor and CTCs were correlated with the disease control rate (DCR) and duration of response (DOR).ConclusionsCo-administration therapy of GW5074 and sorafenib demonstrated a favorable safety profile and showed anti-tumor activity in a variety of tumor types. However, the solubility of GW5074 is not satisfactory. A future phase 2a trial will be carried out using the new salted form that has been proven to be more effective.
