ONE SHOT - single shot radiotherapy for localized prostate cancer: study protocol of a single arm, multicenter phase I/II trial.

ABSTRACT: BACKGROUND:Stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) is an emerging treatment alternative for patients with localized prostate cancer. Promising results in terms of disease control and toxicity have been reported with 4 to 5 SBRT fractions. However, question of how far can the number of fractions with SBRT be reduced is a challenging research matter. As already explored by some authors in the context of brachytherapy, monotherapy appears to be feasible with an acceptable toxicity profile and a promising outcome. The aim of this multicenter phase I/II prospective trialis to demonstrate early evidence of safety and efficacy of a single-fraction SBRT approach for the treatment of localized disease. METHODS:Patients with low- and intermediate-risk localized prostate cancer without significant tumor in the transitional zone will be treated with a single SBRT fraction of 19 Gy to the whole prostate gland with urethra-sparing (17 Gy). Intrafractional motion will be monitored with intraprostatic electromagnetic transponders. The primary endpoint of the phase I part of the study will be safety as assessed by CTCAE 4.03 grading scale, while biochemical relapse-free survival will be the endpoint for the phase II. The secondary endpoints include acute and late toxicity, quality of life, progression-free survival, and prostate-cancer specific survival. DISCUSSION:This is the first multicenter phase I/II trial assessing the efficacy and safety of a single-dose SBRT treatment for patients with localized prostate cancer. If positive, results of ONE SHOT may help to design subsequent phase III trials exploring the role of SBRT monotherapy in the exclusive radiotherapy treatment of localized disease.

Project description:BackgroundPatients with advanced sarcomas have a poor prognosis and few treatment options that improve overall survival. We assessed the efficacy and tolerability of pemetrexed and cisplatin combination therapy in patients with refractory bone and soft tissue sarcoma (STS).Patients and methodsPatients were included in this multicenter, phase II study (ClinicalTrials.gov identifier NCT03809637) if they progressed after receiving one or more chemotherapy regimens containing an anthracycline and/or ifosfamide. Pemetrexed was first administered intravenously, followed by cisplatin, over a cycle of 21 days, for a maximum of six cycles. The primary endpoint was a progression-free rate (PFR) at 3 months (3-month PFR).ResultsFrom January 2017 to September 2019, we enrolled 37 patients; of these, 73% had previously undergone three or more rounds of chemotherapy. Five patients (13.5%) exhibited objective responses, including two patients (2/6, 33.3%) with malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumors, one patient (1/4, 25%) with synovial sarcoma, one patient (1/4, 25%) with undifferentiated pleomorphic sarcoma, and one patient (1/4, 25%) with angiosarcoma. The median progression-free survival was 2.6 months, and the 3-month PFR was 45.9% (n = 17). None of the four patients with osteosarcoma exhibited objective responses or were progression free at 3 months. The most frequent treatment-related grade 3-4 toxicities included neutropenia (16.2%), anemia (13.5%), thrombocytopenia (13.5%), and fatigue (8.1%). Among 26 patients (70.3%) available for immunohistochemical assessments, patients in the low-excision repair cross-complementation group 1 (ERCC1) and low-thymidylate synthase expression groups showed a tendency for longer overall survival.ConclusionsCombination therapy with pemetrexed and cisplatin was associated with clinically meaningful and sustained responses among patients with advanced and refractory STS. The combination therapy met its predefined primary study endpoint.

Project description:BackgroundThere is currently a lack of effective treatments for non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients harboring HER2 mutations. We examined the efficacy and safety of, and potential resistance mechanism to, pyrotinib, a pan-HER inhibitor, in advanced NSCLC carrying HER2 mutations.MethodsIn this multicenter, single-arm, phase II trial, stage IIIB-IV NSCLC patients harboring HER2 mutations, as determined using next-generation sequencing, were enrolled and treated with pyrotinib at a dose of 400 mg/day. The primary endpoint was 6-month progression-free survival (PFS) rate, and secondary endpoints were objective response rate (ORR), PFS, overall survival (OS), disease control rate (DCR), and safety. The impact of different HER2 mutation types on sensitivity to pyrotinib and the potential of utilizing mutational profile derived from circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) to predict disease progression were also explored.ResultsSeventy-eight patients were enrolled for efficacy and safety analysis. The 6-month PFS rate was 49.5% (95% confidence interval [CI], 39.2-60.8). Pyrotinib produced an ORR of 19.2% (95% CI, 11.2-30.0), with median PFS of 5.6 months (95% CI, 2.8-8.4), and median OS of 10.5 months (95% CI, 8.7-12.3). The median duration of response was 9.9 months (95% CI, 6.2-13.6). All treatment-related adverse events (TRAEs) were grade 1-3 (all, 91.0%; grade 3, 20.5%), and the most common TRAE was diarrhea (all, 85.9%; grade 3, 16.7%). Patients with exon 20 and non-exon 20 HER2 mutations had ORRs of 17.7% and 25.0%, respectively. Brain metastases at baseline and prior exposure to afatinib were not associated with ORR, PFS, or OS. Loss of HER2 mutations and appearance of amplification in HER2 and EGFR were detected upon disease progression.ConclusionsPyrotinib exhibited promising efficacy and acceptable safety in NSCLC patients carrying exon 20 and non-exon 20 HER2 mutations and is worth further investigation.Trial registrationChinese Clinical Trial Registry Identifier: ChiCTR1800020262.
