Dynamic changes of phenotypically different circulating tumor cells sub-populations in patients with recurrent/refractory small cell lung cancer treated with pazopanib.

ABSTRACT: The aim of the study was to investigate the effect of 2nd-line pazopanib on the different CTCs subpopulations in SCLC patients and evaluate the clinical relevance of their changes. Different CTCs subpopulations were evaluated before pazopanib initiation (n?=?56 patients), after one-cycle (n?=?35) and on disease progression (n?=?45) by CellSearch and double immunofluorescence using anti-CKs and anti-Ki67, anti-M30 or anti-Vimentin antibodies. Before treatment, CTCs were detected in 50% of patients by CellSearch whereas 53.4%, 15.5% and 74.1% patients had CK+/Ki67+, CK+/M30+ and CK+/Vim+ CTCs, respectively. One pazopanib cycle significantly decreased the number of CTCs as detected by CellSearch (p?=?0.043) as well as the number of CK+/Ki67+ (p?

Project description:BACKGROUND:The prognosis of patients with recurrent, platinum-resistant epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) is poor. There is no standard treatment available. Emerging evidence suggests a major role for antiangiogenic treatment modalities in EOC, in particular in combination with the metronomic application of low dose chemotherapy. The novel, investigational oral antiangiogenic agent pazopanib targeting vascular endothelial growth factor receptor (VEGFR), platelet-derived growth factor receptor (PDGFR) and c-kit is currently being studied in different tumour types and is already used as first line therapy in recurrent renal cell carcinoma. A combined therapy consisting of pazopanib and metronomic oral cyclophosphamide may offer a well-tolerable treatment option to patients with recurrent, pretreated EOC. METHODS/DESIGN:This study is designed as a multicenter phase I/II trial evaluating the optimal dose for pazopanib (phase I) as well as activity and tolerability of a combination regimen consisting of pazopanib and metronomic cyclophosphamide in the palliative treatment of patients with recurrent, platinum-resistant, pre-treated ovarian cancer (phase II). The patient population includes patients with histologically or cytologically confirmed diagnosis of EOC, cancer of the fallopian tube or peritoneal cancer which is platinumresistant or -refractory. Patients must have measurable disease according to RECIST criteria and must have failed available standard chemotherapy. Primary objectives are determination of the optimal doses for pazopanib (phase I) and the overall response rate according to RECIST criteria (phase II). Secondary objectives are time to progression, overall survival, safety and tolerability. The treatment duration is until disease progression or intolerability of study drug regimen (with a maximum of 13 cycles up to 52 weeks per subject). DISCUSSION:The current phase I/II trial shall clarify the potential of the multitargeting antiangiogenic tyrosinkinaseinhibitor GW 786034 (pazopanib) in combination with oral cyclophosphamide as salvage treatment in patients with recurrent, pretreated ovarian cancer.

Project description:BACKGROUND:Blood-based biomarker such as circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) has emerged as a promising tool for assessment of response to immunotherapy in solid tumors; But in hematological malignances, evidences are still lacking to support its clinical utility. In current study the feasibility of ctDNA for prediction and monitoring of response to anti-PD-1 therapy in Chinese patients with relapsed or refractory classical Hodgkin lymphoma (r/r cHL) was assessed. METHODS:A total of 192 plasma samples from 75 patients with r/r cHL were collected at baseline and upon therapeutic evaluation. ctDNA were sequenced by targeting panels capturing frequently mutated genes in cHL and other hematological malignancies and then quantified. Analysis on: 1) Gene mutation profile and association of the gene mutations with progression-free survival; 2) Association of pre- and post-treatment ctDNA variant allelic frequencies with clinical outcome; (3) Correlation of the mutated genes with treatment resistance; were performed. FINDINGS:Somatic mutations were detected in 50 out of 61 patients by ctDNA genotyping. The mutations of CHD8 was significantly higher in patients with PFS ? 12 months. Baseline ctDNA was significantly higher in responders and a decrease of ctDNA ? 40% from baseline indicated superior clinical outcome. Strong agreement between ctDNA dynamic and radiographic response change during therapy was observed in majority of the patients. Furthermore, the mutations of B2M, TNFRSF14 and KDM2B were found to be associated with acquired resistance. INTERPRETATION:ctDNA could be an informative biomarker for anti-PD-1 immunotherapy in r/r cHL.
