Genome Wide Association Study for Predictors of Progression Free Survival in Patients on Capecitabine, Oxaliplatin, Bevacizumab and Cetuximab in First-Line Therapy of Metastatic Colorectal Cancer.

ABSTRACT: Despite expanding options for systemic treatment, survival for metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC) remains limited and individual response is difficult to predict. In search of pre-treatment predictors, pharmacogenetic research has mainly used a candidate gene approach. Genome wide association (GWA) studies offer the benefit of simultaneously analyzing a large number of SNPs, in both known and still unidentified functional regions. Using a GWA approach, we searched for genetic markers affecting progression free survival (PFS) in mCRC patients treated with first-line capecitabine, oxaliplatin and bevacizumab (CAPOX-B), with or without cetuximab.755 patients were included in the CAIRO2-trial, a multicenter phase III trial, randomizing between first-line treatment with CAPOX-B versus CAPOX-B plus cetuximab. Germline DNA and complete clinical information was available from 553 patients and genome wide genotyping was performed, using Illumina's OmniExpress beadchip arrays, with 647,550 markers passing all quality checks. Another 2,202,473 markers were imputated by using HapMap2. Association with PFS was analysed using a Cox proportional hazards model.One marker, rs885036, associated significantly with PFS (P = 2.17x10(-8)) showing opposite effects on PFS depending on treatment arm. The minor allele was associated with increased PFS in patients receiving cetuximab. A cluster of markers located on chromosome 8 associated with PFS, irrespective of treatment arm (P-values of 2.30x10(-7) to 1.04x10(-6)).This is the first GWA study to find SNPs affecting PFS in mCRC patients treated with CAPOX-B, either with or without cetuximab. Rs885036 is a potential predictive marker for cetuximab efficacy. These markers need to be validated in independent treatment cohorts.

Project description:BackgroundMicrosatellite stable (MSS) and RAS-mutant metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC) patients are characterized by an immunosuppressive microenvironment and a low response rate to immunotherapy. Chemotherapy and anti-angiogenesis therapy have been reported to potentially promote immunotherapy response. This study aims to assess the preliminary anti-tumor activity and safety of sintilimab plus bevacizumab, oxaliplatin and capecitabine as a treatment option for patients with RAS-mutant MSS mCRC.MethodsThis study was an open-label, single-arm, phase II trial in China. Patients with unresectable, RAS-mutant and MSS metastatic colorectal adenocarcinoma received treatment by intravenous sintilimab (200 mg, day 1) plus bevacizumab (7.5 mg/kg, day 1), oxaliplatin (135 mg/m2, day 1) and oral capecitabine (1 g/m2, day 1-14) in each 21-day cycle. The primary endpoints included objective response rate (ORR) and adverse events. Biomarker analysis was performed to identify potential predictors of good response to treatment. This study is registered with ClinicalTrials.gov, number NCT04194359.FindingsBetween April 2021 and December 2021, 25 patients were enrolled. Two (8%) patients showed complete response (CR), 19 (76%) had partial response (PR) and 4 (16%) presented with stable disease. ORR reached 84% (95% CI, 63.9-95.5) and the disease control rate was 100% (95% CI, 86.3-100). The median progression-free survival (PFS) was 18.2 months for the full analysis set. The most common treatment-related adverse events (TRAEs) in all grades were anemia (21/25, 84%), neutropenia (20/25, 80%), and hand-foot syndrome (14/25, 56%). The most frequent grade 3 or 4 TRAEs were neutropenia (3/25, 12%) and increased alanine transaminase (2/25, 8%). No grade 5 adverse events occurred. In the exploration of biomarkers, 5 patients could be characterized as TTN/OBSCN "double-hit" after treatment, and the copy number variants burden was significantly decreased in tumor tissues after treatment compared with the baseline. Nanostring panel RNA sequencing analysis indicated a better tumor immune microenvironment cell infiltration in CR/PR patients compared with non-CR/PR patients as well as the PFS-long (≥12.5 months) group compared with the PFS-short group.InterpretationCombination treatment with sintilimab plus bevacizumab, oxaliplatin and capecitabine as first-line treatment demonstrated a promising antitumor activity and a manageable safety profile in RAS-mutant, MSS and unresectable mCRC. Exploratory biomarker assessment analysis showed that some RAS-mutant and MSS patients changed into "immune-hot" subtype after the treatment.FundingThis study was supported by the Key R&D Program of Zhejiang Province (2021C03125 to Ying Yuan), the National Natural Science Foundation of China (81872481 to Ying Yuan, 82072624 to Kefeng Ding), the Fundamental Research Funds for the Central Universities (No. 226-2022-00009 to Kefeng Ding), and the Zhejiang Provincial Natural Science Foundation of China (No. LY22H160024 to Hanguang Hu).
