ACTR-21. MANAGEMENT OF OCULAR SIDE EFFECTS IN PATIENTS WITH EGFR-AMPLIFIED GLIOBLASTOMA RECEIVING DEPATUXIZUMAB MAFODOTIN

ABSTRACT: Abstract BACKGROUND Depatuxizumab mafodotin (depatux-m, formerly ABT-414), is an antibody-drug conjugate comprised of an EGFR-targeted antibody, a non-cleavable linker maleimidocaproyl, and the microtubule inhibitor monomethylauristatin F. Promising antitumor activity of depatux-m was observed in patients with glioblastoma (GBM) in Phase 12 studies. Dosage of depatux-m is limited by ocular side effects (OSE), such as blurred vision, dry eye, and photophobia from corneal epitheliopathy, which are generally reversible after dose reduction or drug discontinuation. This Phase 3b study evaluates depatux-m-related OSE management strategies used in depatux-m clinical trials. METHODS This open-label study will enroll approximately 90 patients with newly diagnosed, histologically confirmed, grade IV GBM that is epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR)-amplified. Patients will receive depatux-m during the chemoradiation phase (radiation and temozolomide [TMZ]), and during adjuvant therapy with TMZ. Patients are randomized to one of three prophylactic ocular treatments: standard steroids (SS), SS with vasoconstrictors and cold compress (VC), or enhanced steroids (ES) with VC. Primary objective is to evaluate these prophylactic strategies for their effect on the proportion of patients requiring a change in OSE management due to inadequate control of OSEs, defined as either a 3-line decline in visual acuity from baseline or Grade 3 OSE severity on the Corneal Epithelial Adverse Event (CEAE) activities of daily living-based scale. Inadequate control with initial prophylactic regimen will trigger a switch to the addition of bandage contact lenses (BCL). Secondary objective assesses change in OSE management due to inadequate control of OSEs by BCL, defined as percentage of patients with Grade 3 CEAE that will trigger transition of patient to investigator discretion regimen (depatux-m interruption/dose reduction, VC prophylaxis, or ES prophylaxis). ClinicalTrials.gov: NCT03419403.

Project description:IntroductionThe Understanding New Interventions with GBM ThErapy (UNITE) study was designed to assess the effect of prophylaxis for ocular side effects (OSEs) in patients with glioblastoma receiving the antibody-drug conjugate (ADC) depatuxizumab mafodotin. UNITE (NCT03419403) was a phase 3b, open-label, randomized, exploratory study performed at 18 research sites in 5 countries.MethodsThe study enrolled adult patients with epidermal growth factor receptor-amplified, histologically confirmed, newly diagnosed supratentorial glioblastoma or grade IV gliosarcoma, and a Karnofsky Performance Status ≥70, receiving depatuxizumab mafodotin. All patients were administered depatuxizumab mafodotin during concurrent radiotherapy and temozolomide and with adjuvant temozolomide. Ninety patients were to be randomized (1:1:1) to OSE prophylactic treatments with each depatuxizumab mafodotin infusion: (a) standard steroid eye drops, (b) standard steroid eye drops plus vasoconstrictor eye drops and cold compress, or (c) enhanced steroids plus vasoconstrictor eye drops and cold compress. A Corneal Epitheliopathy Adverse Event (CEAE) scale was devised to capture symptoms, grade OSEs (scale of 0-5), and inform ADC dose modifications. The primary endpoint was the frequency of a required change in OSE management due to inadequate control of OSEs, defined as decline from baseline in visual acuity (using logarithm of the minimum angle of resolution [LogMAR] scale) or a Grade ≥3 CEAE event, in the worst eye in the first 8 weeks of treatment; unless otherwise specified, the treatment period refers to both the chemoradiation and adjuvant phases.ResultsThe UNITE study was stopped early after interim analysis of separate phase III trial showed no difference in survival from depatuxizumab mafodotin. Forty patients were randomized (38 received depatuxizumab mafodotin). Overall, 23 patients experienced inadequate control of OSEs that required change in OSE management within 8 weeks of treatment, with 21 (70.0%) experiencing ≥+0.3 change on LogMAR scale in baseline-adjusted visual acuity and 12 reporting a grade ≥3 CEAE. There were no definitive differences among prophylactic treatments.ConclusionsThe premature cessation of the study precludes definitive conclusions regarding the OSE prophylaxis strategies. No new clinically significant safety findings were noted. Despite these limitations, this study highlights the need for novel assessment tools to better understand and mitigate OSEs associated with ADCs.

Project description:Abstract BACKGROUND Depatuxizumab-mafodotin is an EGFR-directed monoclonal antibody that targets activated EGFR (wild type or EGFRvIII) conjugated to a microtubule inhibitor. EGFRamp correlated with recurrent GBM response in a phase I trial (M12-356, NCT01800695), thus becoming a centrally determined inclusion criterion in an ensuing phase II/III randomized study for newly diagnosed disease now accruing (RTOG 3508, M13-813, NCT02573324). Centrally detected EGFRvIII mutation and MGMT promoter methylation are also stratification factors in RTOG 3508 to balance randomization for biomarkers of potential predictive or prognostic significance. Allowing use of locally determined molecular profiling may reduce accrual barriers by avoiding added time of tissue shipping and repeat central testing. However, discordant results between local and central tests could confound interpretation of clinical trial results. Therefore, we compared local vs. central biomarker results among patients screened for M12-356 or RTOG 3508 at Columbia University Medical Center (CUMC). METHODS We retrospectively tabulated local and central EGFRamp, EGFRvIII, and MGMT results. EGFRamp was analyzed by FISH/CISH and EGFRvIII and MGMT by PCR, although the assays for each differed slightly between laboratories. RESULTS 109 GBMs were molecularly profiled from 73 patients who underwent 1–4 resection(s) and screened for M12-356 (n=44) or RTOG 3508 (n=29) at CUMC. EGFRamp, EGFRvIII, and MGMT promoter methylation each was observed in 54, 36, and 27% of tumors tested locally vs. 68, 33, and 43% centrally, respectively. Concordance between laboratories was observed 88%, 86%, and 61%. CONCLUSIONS EGFRamp and EGFRvIII results were mainly concordant (over 85%) between local and central laboratories. EGFRamp frequency was higher centrally, likely biased by investigators who preferentially sent cases known to harbor EGFRamp locally for central testing. Of concern, MGMT results were discordant in 39%. Allowing local MGMT testing for stratification could unacceptably imbalance randomization if confirmed in a larger dataset.
