Combined high dose radiation and pazopanib in metastatic renal cell carcinoma: a phase I dose escalation trial.

ABSTRACT: The primary objective was to determine maximum tolerated radiation dose in patients with metastatic renal cell carcinoma on pazopanib treatment.Treatment-naïve patients received pazopanib according to standard of care. Stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) was delivered concurrently to the largest metastatic lesion at day 8, 10 and 12. SBRT doses were escalated in 3 dose levels (24 Gy/3, 30 Gy/3 and 36 Gy/3). Dose level was assigned using Time-to-Event Continual Reassessment Method with the target dose-limiting toxicity rate set to 0.25.Thirteen patients were included. One patient experienced dose limiting toxicity (DLT) at dose level 3 (grade 4 hypoglycemia). Maximum tolerated dose was not reached with a recommended dose of 36 Gy/3 having a probability of DLT of 11%. One-year local control was 83% (95% confidence interval 61-100) and 1-year progression-free survival was 28% (95% confidence interval 1-55).SBRT in combination with pazopanib is well tolerated with good local control and response rates outside the radiation field.This trial was retrospectively registered on clinicaltrials.gov( NCT02334709 ) on January 6th, 2015.

Project description:BackgroundVascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) directed therapies are being used in a large number of advanced tumors. Metastatic renal cell carcinoma (mRCC) is highly dependent on the VEGF pathway; VEGF receptor (VEGFR) tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKI) and humanized VEGF monoclonal antibody have been registered for clinical use in advanced renal cell carcinoma. The VEGFR TKI, pazopanib, with a rather manageable toxicity profile, was preferred to sunitinib by mRCC patients. We investigate the combination of pazopanib and bevacizumab to determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) in mRCC and other advanced solid tumors.MethodsIn this bicentric phase I trial with a 3 + 3 + 3 dose-escalation design, patients received oral pazopanib once daily plus intravenous infusion of bevacizumab every 2 weeks from D15, at one of the four dose levels (DL) planned according to the occurrence of dose limiting toxicities (DLT). 400 and 600 mg pazopanib were respectively combined with 7.5 mg/kg bevacizumab in DL1 and DL2, and 600 and 800 mg pazopanib with 10 mg/kg bevacizumab in DL3 and DL4. Tumor response was evaluated every 8 weeks. Blood samples were assayed to investigate pazopanib pharmacokinetics.ResultsTwenty five patients including seven mRCC were enrolled. Nine patients received the DL1, ten received the DL2. No DLT were observed at DL1, five DLT at DL2, and 3 DLT in the six additional patients who received the DL1. A grade 3 microangiopathic hemolytic anemia syndrome was observed in four (16%) patients. Five (22%) patients achieved a partial response. The mean (range) plasmatic concentrations of 400 and 600 pazopanib were respectively 283 (139-427) and 494 (227-761) μg.h/mL at Day 1, and 738 (487-989) and 1071 (678-1464) μg.h/mL at Day 15 i.e. higher than those previously reported with pazopanib, and were not directly influenced by bevacizumab infusion.ConclusionsThe combination of pazopanib and bevacizumab induces angiogenic toxicity in patients without any pre-existing renal or vascular damage. Even if a marginal efficacy was reported with five (22%) patients in partial response in different tumor types, the toxicity profile compromises the development of this combination.Trial registrationThe study was retrospectively registered on ClinicalTrials.gov (number NCT01202032 ) on 2010, Sept 14th.

Project description:BACKGROUND:TRC105 is an IgG1 endoglin monoclonal antibody that potentiates VEGF inhibitors in preclinical models. We assessed safety, pharmacokinetics, and antitumor activity of TRC105 in combination with axitinib in patients with metastatic renal cell carcinoma (mRCC). SUBJECTS, MATERIALS, AND METHODS:Heavily pretreated mRCC patients were treated with TRC105 weekly (8 mg/kg and then 10 mg/kg) in combination with axitinib (initially at 5 mg b.i.d. and then escalated per patient tolerance to a maximum of 10 mg b.i.d.) until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity using a standard 3 + 3 phase I design. RESULTS:Eighteen patients (median number of prior therapies = 3) were treated. TRC105 dose escalation proceeded to 10 mg/kg weekly without dose-limiting toxicity. Adverse event characteristics of each drug were not increased in frequency or severity when the two drugs were administered concurrently. TRC105 and axitinib demonstrated preliminary evidence of activity, including partial responses (PR) by RECIST in 29% of patients, and median progression-free survival (11.3 months). None of the patients with PR had PR to prior first-line treatment. Lower baseline levels of osteopontin and higher baseline levels of TGF-? receptor 3 correlated with overall response rate. CONCLUSION:TRC105 at 8 and 10 mg/kg weekly was well tolerated in combination with axitinib, with encouraging evidence of activity in patients with mRCC. A multicenter, randomized phase II trial of TRC105 and axitinib has recently completed enrollment (NCT01806064). IMPLICATIONS FOR PRACTICE:TRC105 is a monoclonal antibody to endoglin (CD105), a receptor densely expressed on proliferating endothelial cells and also on renal cancer stem cells that is implicated as a mediator of resistance to inhibitors of the VEGF pathway. In this Phase I trial, TRC105 combined safely with axitinib at the recommended single agent doses of each drug in patients with renal cell carcinoma. The combination demonstrated durable activity in a VEGF inhibitor-refractory population and modulated several angiogenic biomarkers. A randomized Phase II trial testing TRC105 in combination with axitinib in clear cell renal cell carcinoma has completed accrual.
