Personalized peptide vaccination for cervical cancer patients who have received prior platinum-based chemotherapy.

ABSTRACT: A feasibility study was performed to evaluate the immunological efficacy and safety of a personalized peptide vaccine (PPV) for cervical cancer patients who have received platinum-based chemotherapy. A total of 24 patients with standard chemotherapy-resistant cervical cancer, including 18 recurrent cases, were enrolled in this study and received a maximum of 4 peptides based on HLA-A types and IgG levels to the vaccine candidate peptides in pre-vaccination plasma. The parental protein expression of most of the vaccine peptides was confirmed in the cervical cancer tissues. No vaccine-related systemic grade 3 or 4 adverse events were observed in any patients. Due to disease progression, 2 patients failed to complete the first cycle of vaccinations (sixth vaccination). Cytotoxic T-lymphocyte (CTL) or IgG responses specific for the peptides used for vaccination were augmented in half of cases after the first cycle. The median overall survival was 8.3 months. The clinical responses of the evaluable 18 cases consisted of 1 case with a partial response and 17 cases with disease progression; the remaining 6 cases were not evaluable. Performance status, injection site skin reaction and circulating PD-1(+) CD4(+) T-cells were significantly prognostic of overall survival, and multivariate analysis also indicated that the performance status and circulating PD-1(+) CD4(+) T-cells were prognostic. Because of the safety and immunological efficacy of PPV and the possible prolongation of overall survival, further clinical trials of PPV at a larger scale in advanced or recurrent cervical cancer patients who have received prior platinum-based chemotherapy are recommended.

A panel of three oxidative stress-related genes predicts overall survival in ovarian cancer patients received platinum-based chemotherapy.

Project description:Ovarian cancer yields the highest mortality rate of all lethal gynecologic cancers, and the prognosis is unsatisfactory with the major obstacle in resistance to chemotherapy. The generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in tumor tissues was associated with chemotherapeutic effectiveness by mediating cellular longevity. In this study, we screened the prognostic values of oxidative stress-related genes in ovarian cancer patients received platinum-based chemotherapy, and conducted a prognostic gene signature composing of three genes, TXNRD1, GLA and GSTZ1. This three-gene signature was significantly associated with overall survival (OS), but not progression-free survival (PFS), in both training (n=276) and validation cohorts (n=230). Interestingly, we found that the prognostic value of three-gene signature was reinforced in platinum-sensitive patients. Subgroup analysis further suggested that patients with elder age, higher pathological grades and advanced tumor stages in low-risk score group could benefit from platinum-based chemotherapy. Functional analysis showed that the inactivation of several signaling pathways, including cell cycle, insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF1) /mTOR and Fas pathways, was affected by three genes. Collectively, our results provided evidence that a panel of three oxidative stress-related gene signature had prognostic values for ovarian cancer patients received platinum-based chemotherapy.

SOD2 rs4880 CT/CC genotype predicts poor survival for Chinese gastric cancer patients received platinum and fluorouracil based adjuvant chemotherapy.

Project description:Adjuvant chemotherapy is a standard therapy for gastric cancer patients, however, treatment response is quite heterogeneous. Molecular biomarkers will be highly valuable to guide the therapy and predict the response and prognosis in these patients. The antioxidant enzymes superoxide dismutase 2 (SOD2) and glutathione S-transferase pi 1 (GSTP1) are involved in oxidative stress and drug detoxification, which modulate the efficacy of anticancer drugs. Here, we investigated the clinical associations of two functional single nucleotide polymorphisms of SOD2 and GSTP1 in stage II-III postoperative gastric cancer patients. SOD2 rs4880 and GSTP1 rs1695 were genotyped in 207 patients received postoperative platinum and fluorouracil based chemotherapy and 304 patients who did not. SOD2 rs4880 CT/CC significantly associated with decreased median overall survival time of 23 months when compared to the TT genotype (mean overall survival time of 65.2 months, P=0.002) only for patients received adjuvant chemotherapy. Stratification analysis showed SOD2 rs4880 CT/CC affected most significantly the clinical outcome for patients with tumor arising at gastric body (HR, 5.707, P=0.002), well to moderately differentiated adenocarcinoma (HR, 4.900, P<0.001), tumor of intestinal type (HR, 4.398, P<0.001), or tumor size less or equal to 5 cm (HR, 2.490, P=0.004); while GSTP1 rs1695 GA/GG was significant decreased overall survival time among patients with tumor arising at fundus or cardia (HR, 3.001, P=0.004), or mucinous or signet-ring cell carcinoma (HR, 4.750, P=0.042). The present study suggested the two polymorphisms would affect the adjuvant chemotherapy outcome in specific subtype of gastric cancer. SOD2 rs4880 could be used as a biomarker to predict the prognosis and response to therapy.

Apatinib in treating patients with recurrent or metastatic nasopharyngeal carcinoma who had failed prior platinum-based chemotherapy

Project description:Background Platinum-based chemotherapy is the standard first-line treatment for recurrent/metastatic nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC); however, there is no standard regimen for those who failed first-line treatment. This study aimed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of apatinib in treating patients with recurrent/metastatic NPC who failed prior platinum-based chemotherapy. Methods Patients aged 18–65 years with recurrent/metastatic NPC were treated with apatinib at an initial dose of 500 mg once daily and continued until disease progression, patient withdrawal, or unacceptable toxic effects. The primary endpoints were clinical benefit rate (CBR) and toxicity. Secondary endpoints included progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS). Results Nineteen patients were enrolled in this study. At the final follow-up, the CBR was 52.6% (95% CI: 29.8–76.2%) in the intention-to-treat population. The median PFS and OS were 3.7 (95% CI: 0.6–6.8) months and 12.9 (95% CI: 9.3–16.5) months, respectively. The most common grade 3–4 adverse events (AEs) were hand-foot syndrome [3 (15.8%)], neutropenia [2 (10.5%)], proteinuria [2 (10.5%)], oral mucosal pain [2 (10.5%)], hypertension [1 (5.3%)], hyponatremia [1 (5.3%)], artery dissection [1 (5.3%)], and nasopharyngeal hemorrhage [1 (5.3%)]. A serious AEs was reported in one patient who died of nasopharyngeal hemorrhage. Treatment with apatinib did not significantly influence patient-reported quality-of-life, except for nausea/vomiting and pain (P<0.05). Conclusions Apatinib achieved modest disease control with acceptable toxicity in recurrent/metastatic NPC patients pretreated with platinum-based chemotherapy.

Personalized medicine for targeted and platinum-based chemotherapy of lung and bladder cancer.

Project description:The personalized medicine revolution is occurring for cancer chemotherapy. Biomarkers are increasingly capable of distinguishing genotypic or phenotypic traits of individual tumors, and are being linked to the selection of treatment protocols. This review covers the molecular basis for biomarkers of response to targeted and cytotoxic lung and bladder cancer treatment with an emphasis on platinum-based chemotherapy. Platinum derivatives are a class of drugs commonly employed against solid tumors that kill cells by covalent attachment to DNA. Platinum-DNA adduct levels in patient tissues have been correlated to response and survival. The sensitivity and precision of adduct detection has increased to the point of enabling subtherapeutic dosing for diagnostics applications, termed diagnostic microdosing, prior to the initiation of full-dose therapy. The clinical status of this unique phenotypic marker for lung and bladder cancer applications is detailed along with discussion of future applications.

MAP3K1 rs889312 genotypes influence survival outcomes of Chinese gastric cancer patients who received adjuvant chemotherapy based on platinum and fluorouracil regimes.

Project description:Background:For patients with gastric cancer (GC), adjuvant chemotherapy is a standard therapy. However, the responses to the treatment are quite different. Mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) pathway is a core pathway that modulates the efficacy of anticancer drugs. The purpose of our study was to investigate the clinical significance of one pivotal functional gene polymorphism in the MAPK pathway - MAP3K1 rs889312 - in patients with stage II GC to stage III GC. Methods:The genotypes of MAP3K1 rs889312 were analyzed in 591 GC patients enrolled in this study who had received radical gastrectomy. Among them, 204 patients accepted adjuvant chemotherapy based on platinum and ?uorouracil (PF) regimens after an operation. Cox regression analysis, log-rank test and Kaplan-Meier method were used to explore the link between MAP3K1 rs889312 variant and overall survival (OS) of GC. Results:Compared with the AA genotype (mean OS of 68.12 months), MAP3K1 rs889312 AC/CC significantly reduced the mean OS of 56.83 months in patients who received adjuvant chemotherapy only. In addition, AC/CC genotype had a negative impact on OS of patients who received oxaliplatin-based therapy (HR, 8.253; 95% CI: 1.119-60.853, log-rank p=0.013). Stratification analysis showed that MAP3K1 rs889312 AC/CC significantly reduced OS of patients with tumors smaller than or equal to 5 cm in size (HR, 3.706; 95% CI: 1.329-10.335, p=0.012), poorly differentiated tumors (HR, 3.002; 95% CI: 1.076-8.377, p=0.036) and intestinal tumors (HR, 4.780; 95% CI: 1.138-20.073, p=0.033). Conclusion:Our findings suggested that MAP3K1 rs889312 single-nucleotide polymorphism may be considered as a biomarker for adjuvant chemotherapy reaction and can predict prognosis of GC patients who received PF-based therapy.

Identification of biomarkers for personalized peptide vaccination in 2,588 cancer patients.

Project description:Peptide?based cancer vaccines have failed to provide sufficient clinical benefits in order to be approved in clinical trials since the 1990s. To understand the mechanisms underlying this failure, the present study investigated biomarkers associated with the lower overall survival (OS) among 2,588 patients receiving personalized peptide vaccination (PPV). Survival data were obtained from a database of 2,588 cancer patients including 399 patients with lung, 354 with prostate and 344 with colon cancer. They entered into phase II clinical trials of PPV in which 2 to 4 of 31 warehouse peptides were selected for vaccination on an individual patient basis based on human leukocyte antigen (HLA) class IA?types and pre?existing peptide?specific IgG levels. Higher pre?vaccination neutrophil, monocyte and platelet counts, and lower pre?vaccination lymphocyte and red blood cell counts were inversely associated with OS, with higher sensitivities in the proportions of neutrophils and lymphocytes, respectively. The most potent unfavorable and favorable factors for OS were the median percentage of neutrophils (?64.8%) or percentage of lymphocytes (?25.1%) with correlation coefficients (R2) of 0.98 and 0.92, respectively. Higher pre?vaccination levels of c?reactive protein and other inflammatory soluble factors were inversely associated with OS. Pre?vaccination peptide?specific immunity levels had no effect on OS, although lower immune boosting levels were inversely associated with OS. None of the 31 peptides was inversely associated with OS, although a few peptides were positively associated with it. On the whole, the findings of the present study suggested that pre?vaccination inflammatory signatures, but not those of post?vaccination immune induction, were associated with lower clinical benefits of PPV.

Nimotuzumab plus platinum-based chemotherapy <i>versus</i> platinum-based chemotherapy alone in patients with recurrent or metastatic nasopharyngeal carcinoma.

Project description:BackgroundPalliative chemotherapy has been the mainstay treatment for patients with recurrent or metastatic nasopharyngeal carcinoma (R/M-NPC). However, little is known about the efficacy and toxicity of nimotuzumab (NTZ) - a monoclonal antibody drug targeting epidermal growth factor receptor - plus chemotherapy (CT) versus CT alone for these patients.MethodsThe database at Cancer Hospital of Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences was queried for patients diagnosed with NPC who received CT with or without NTZ between 2004 and 2018. Treatment compliance, survival outcomes, and adverse effects were compared among these groups.ResultsRecords of 70 patients with R/M-NPC were reviewed: 21 (30%) received NTZ plus CT (NTZ+CT) and 49 (70%) received CT. CT regimens included gemcitabine plus platinum, taxane plus platinum (TP), and fluorouracil plus platinum. Comparing the CT group with NTZ+CT group, the median follow up was 62 months (range = 3-133) versus 59 months (range = 9-117); median progression free survival was 7.5 [95% confidence interval (CI) 6.552-8.381] months versus 8.5 (95% CI 6.091-10.976) months, p = 0.424; median overall survival (OS) was 25.6 (95% CI 18.888-32.379) months versus 48.6 (95% CI 35.619-61.581) months, p = 0.017, respectively. Multivariable analysis established treatment group (CT versus NTZ+CT) as an independent prognostic factor for OS (hazard ratio, 0.5; 95% CI 0.255-0.979; p = 0.043). No significant difference with regard to toxicities was observed between the two groups. Among them, a subgroup analysis was performed in 53 (75.7%) patients who received TP with or without NTZ, which showed similar results.ConclusionOur findings suggested that NTZ+CT provides a novel treatment option and prolongs survival significantly for R/M-NPC.

IMpower132: Atezolizumab plus platinum-based chemotherapy vs chemotherapy for advanced NSCLC in Japanese patients.

Project description:IMpower132 explored the safety and efficacy of atezolizumab plus pemetrexed and platinum-based chemotherapy as first-line treatment for advanced non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Key eligibility criteria for the phase 3, open-label, IMpower132 study included age ≥18 y, histologically or cytologically confirmed advanced non-squamous NSCLC per Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) version 1.1, Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance status of 0/1, and no prior systemic treatment for stage IV NSCLC. Patients received atezolizumab (1200 mg) plus pemetrexed (500 mg/m2 ) and cisplatin (75 mg/m2 ) or carboplatin (area under the concentration curve, 6 mg/mL/min) (APP arm) or chemotherapy alone (PP arm). The co-primary study endpoints were overall survival (OS) and investigator-assessed progression-free survival (PFS) per RECIST 1.1 in the intention-to-treat population. A subgroup analysis was conducted in Japanese patients. In the Japanese subgroup (n = 101), median OS was 30.8 (95% CI, 24.3 to not estimable) mo in the APP arm (n = 48) and 22.2 (95% CI, 15.7-30.8) mo in the PP arm (n = 53; hazard ratio [HR], 0.63 [95% CI, 0.36-1.14]). PFS was 12.8 (95% CI, 8.6-16.6) mo in the APP arm vs 4.5 (95% CI, 4.1-6.7) mo in the PP arm (HR, 0.33 [95% CI, 0.21-0.58]). Grade 3/4 treatment-related adverse events (TRAEs) occurred in 68.8% of APP arm patients and 44.2% of PP arm patients. Consistent with global study results, atezolizumab plus pemetrexed and platinum-based chemotherapy improved efficacy and was well tolerated in Japanese patients with advanced NSCLC despite a higher incidence of grade 3/4 TRAEs.

Feasibility study of personalized peptide vaccination for hepatocellular carcinoma patients refractory to locoregional therapies.

Project description:Overall survival of patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) refractory to locoregional therapy is dismal, even following treatment with sorafenib, a multikinase inhibitor. To develop a more efficacious treatment, we undertook a feasibility study of personalized peptide vaccination (PPV) for HCC, in which the peptides were selected from 31 peptide candidates based on the pre-existing immunity. Twenty-six HCC patients refractory to locoregional therapies (cohort 1) and 30 patients refractory to both locoregional and systemic therapies (cohort 2) were entered into the study. There were no severe adverse events related to PPV except for one injection site reaction. At the end of the first cycle of six vaccinations, successful CTL or IgG boosting was observed in 57% or 46% of patients in cohort 1 and in 54% or 52% of patients in cohort 2, respectively. Successful IgG boosting at the end of the second cycle was observed in the majority of patients tested. Median overall survival was 18.7 months (95% confidence interval, 12.2-22.5 months) in cohort 1, and 8.5 months (95% confidence interval, 5.9-12.2 months) in cohort 2. Based on the higher rates of immune boosting and the safety profile of PPV, further clinical studies of PPV would be warranted for patients with HCC refractory to not only locoregional therapy but also both locoregional and systemic therapies. The protocol of this study was registered with the UMIN Clinical Trials Registry (UMIN000001882 and UMIN000003590).
