Survival, quality-adjusted survival, and other clinical end points in older advanced non-small-cell lung cancer patients treated with albumin-bound paclitaxel.

ABSTRACT: This analysis compared the quality-adjusted survival and clinical outcomes of albumin-bound paclitaxel+carboplatin (nab-PC) vs solvent-based paclitaxel+carboplatin (sb-PC) as first-line therapy in advanced non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) in older patients.Using age-based subgroup data from a randomised Phase-3 clinical trial, nab-PC and sb-PC were compared with respect to overall response rate (ORR), overall survival (OS), progression-free survival (PFS), quality of life (QoL), safety/toxicity, and quality-adjusted time without symptoms or toxicity (Q-TWiST) with ages ?60 and ?70 years as cut points.Among patients aged ?60 years (N=546), nab-PC (N=265) significantly increased ORR and prolonged OS, despite a non-significant improvement in PFS, vs sb-PC (N=281). Nab-PC improved QoL and was associated with less neuropathy, arthralgia, and myalgia but resulted in more anaemia and thrombocytopenia. Nab-PC yielded significant Q-TWiST benefits (11.1 vs 9.8 months; 95% CI of gain: 0.2-2.6), with a relative Q-TWiST gain of 10.8% (ranging from 6.4% to 15.1% in threshold analysis). In the ?70 years age group, nab-PC showed similar, but non-significant, ORR, PFS, and Q-TWiST benefits and significantly improved OS and QoL.Nab-PC as first-line therapy in older patients with advanced NSCLC increased ORR, OS, and QoL and resulted in quality-adjusted survival gains compared with standard sb-PC.

Project description:Purposenab-paclitaxel demonstrates improved clinical efficacy compared with conventional Cremophor EL (CrEL)-paclitaxel in multiple tumor types. This study explored the distinctions in drug distribution between nab-paclitaxel and CrEL-paclitaxel and the underlying mechanisms.MethodsUptake and transcytosis of paclitaxel were analyzed by vascular permeability assay across human endothelial cell monolayers. The tissue penetration of paclitaxel within tumors was evaluated by local injections into tumor xenografts and quantitative image analysis. The distribution profile of paclitaxel in solid-tumor patients was assessed using pharmacokinetic modeling and simulation.ResultsLive imaging demonstrated that albumin and paclitaxel were present in punctae in endothelial cells and could be observed in very close proximity, suggesting cotransport. Uptake and transport of albumin, nab-paclitaxel and paclitaxel were inhibited by clinically relevant CrEL concentrations. Further, nab-paclitaxel causes greater mitotic arrest in wider area within xenografted tumors than CrEL- or dimethyl sulfoxide-paclitaxel following local microinjection, demonstrating enhanced paclitaxel penetration and uptake by albumin within tumors. Modeling of paclitaxel distribution in patients with solid tumors indicated that nab-paclitaxel is more dependent upon transporter-mediated pathways for drug distribution into tissues than CrEL-paclitaxel. The percent dose delivered to tissue via transporter-mediated pathways is predicted to be constant with nab-paclitaxel but decrease with increasing CrEL-paclitaxel dose.ConclusionsCompared with CrEL-paclitaxel, nab-paclitaxel demonstrated more efficient transport across endothelial cells, greater penetration and cytotoxic induction in xenograft tumors, and enhanced extravascular distribution in patients that are attributed to carrier-mediated transport. These observations are consistent with the distinct clinical efficacy and toxicity profile of nab-paclitaxel.

Project description:PurposeThis study aimed to assess the effect of nanoparticle albumin-bound paclitaxel (nab-PTX) chemotherapy regimens in elderly patients (≥70 years old) with advanced squamous non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC).Patients and methodsThe clinical records of elderly patients aged ≥70 years with advanced squamous NSCLC were reviewed retrospectively. All of these patients received nab-PTX, with or without combination of chemotherapy in Shandong Cancer Hospital and Institute between 1 July 2012 and 30 June 2017. We analyzed the toxicity profiles, progression-free survival (PFS), overall survival (OS), objective response rate (ORR), and disease control rate (DCR).ResultsTotally, 52 elderly patients with squamous NSCLC were included in the analysis. For all patients, the ORR was 34.6%, the DCR was 80.8%, median PFS was 5.9 months (95% confidence interval [CI]: 4.0-7.8 months), and median OS was 14.3 months (95% CI: 11.0-17.8 months). Combination with chemotherapy significantly prolonged OS (19.3 vs 11.2 months, P = .016), despite a nonsignificant improvement in PFS (7.1 vs 4.2 months, P = .060) vs monotherapy. For patients who received nab-PTX as first-line treatment, the median PFS and OS were 6.7 months and 17.2 months, respectively, and the median OS in combination therapy subgroup was significantly higher than that in monotherapy group (20.3 vs 11.2 months, P = .013). Meanwhile, the median PFS and OS of patients with nab-PTX as second- or later-line treatment were 4.4 months and 13.3 months, respectively, but no survival benefit was achieved by the combination chemotherapy when compared with single-agent chemotherapy. Hematologic toxicities were the most common adverse events (AEs), which include grade 3 or 4 neutropenia (13.7%), thrombocytopenia (4.1%), and anemia (6.8%). The main nonhematologic toxicities were peripheral sensory neuropathy (39.7%), followed by anorexia and nausea/vomiting.ConclusionIn elderly advanced squamous NSCLC patients, the treatment of nab-PTX was effective and well tolerated.

Project description:Background Nanoparticle albumin-bound paclitaxel (nab-PTX) has shown non-inferiority to paclitaxel (PTX) as second-line therapy for advanced gastric cancer (AGC) with fewer infusion-related reactions. The efficacy and safety of nab-PTX plus ramucirumab (RAM) was reported in a phase II trial; however, there is no randomized trial comparing this regimen with PTX plus RAM in patients with AGC. This retrospective study aimed to investigate the efficacy and safety of nab-PTX plus RAM versus PTX plus RAM in patients with AGC. Methods This study included patients with AGC who received nab-PTX plus RAM from September 2017 to January 2019 or PTX plus RAM from June 2015 to August 2017 as second-line chemotherapy in our hospital. Results A total of 113 and 138 patients who received nab-PTX plus RAM and PTX plus RAM, respectively, were analyzed. Median progression-free survival (PFS) was 3.9?months (95% confidence interval [CI]: 3.4–4.3) in the nab-PTX plus RAM group and 3.9?months (95% CI: 3.1–4.7) in the PTX plus RAM group (hazard ratio [HR]: 1.08; 95% CI: 0.83–1.40; P?=?0.573). Median overall survival (OS) was 10.9?months (95% CI: 9.3–12.7) in the nab-PTX plus RAM group and 10.3?months (95% CI: 8.5–12.0) in the PTX plus RAM group (hazard ratio: 0.82; 95% CI: 0.61–1.10; P?=?0.188). In patients with moderate/massive ascites, favorable outcomes for progression-free survival were observed in the nab-PTX plus RAM group compared with the PTX plus RAM group. Although anemia and fatigue (any grade) were more frequent in the nab-PTX plus RAM group, discontinuation of study treatment was not increased in the nab-PTX plus RAM group. There was no occurrence of hypersensitivity reaction in the nab-PTX plus RAM group, while two patients (1.4%) experienced grade 3 hypersensitivity reactions in the PTX plus RAM group. Conclusions The combination of nab-PTX plus RAM showed a similar efficacy and safety profile to PTX plus RAM as second-line treatment for patients with AGC.
