Early tumor shrinkage as a predictive factor of metastatic renal cell carcinoma in molecular targeted therapy: A single institutional study.

ABSTRACT: The aim of the present study was to investigate the impact of metastatic sites and early tumor shrinkage (eTS) as prognostic predictive factors of metastatic renal cell carcinoma (mRCC) in molecular targeted therapy. A total of 209 advanced RCC cases treated with sorafenib, sunitinib, axitinib, pazopanib, temsirolimus and everolimus from our single institution were included in the present study. Several known prognostic predictive factors, including metastatic sites and the rate of eTS, were analyzed by Kaplan-Meier survival estimate analysis followed by Cox's proportional hazards model analysis. eTS was measured by three independent physicians. Four metastatic sites in the liver, bone, lymph nodes and brain as well as greater eTS were identified as potential independent predictors of overall survival (OS) in several cohorts: i) Metastatic RCC (n=194); ii) metastatic clear cell RCC (n=119); and iii) mRCC patients with eTS data (n=127). In sub-analyses of patients treated with each 1st line tyrosine kinase inhibitor, eTS was identified as a potentially potent predictor of OS in patients treated with axitinib. The liver, bone, lymph nodes, brain metastases and eTS were identified as independent predictive factors of OS by analyzing a limited Japanese cohort.

Predictive genomic markers of response to VEGF targeted therapy in metastatic renal cell carcinoma.

Project description:BACKGROUND:First-line treatment for metastatic renal cell carcinoma (mRCC) is rapidly changing. It currently includes VEGF targeted therapies (TT), multi-target tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs), mTOR inhibitors, and immunotherapy. To optimize outcomes for individual patients, genomic markers of response to therapy are needed. Here, we aim to identify tumor-based genomic markers of response to VEGF TT to optimize treatment selection. METHODS:From an institutional database, primary tumor tissue was obtained from 79 patients with clear cell mRCC, and targeted sequencing was performed. Clinical outcomes were obtained retrospectively. Progression-free survival (PFS) on first-line VEGF TT was correlated to genomic alterations (GAs) using Kaplan-Meier methodology and Cox proportional hazard models. A composite model of significant GAs predicting PFS in the first-line setting was developed. RESULTS:Absence of VHL mutation was associated with inferior PFS on first-line VEGF TT. A trend for inferior PFS was observed with GAs in TP53 and FLT1 C/C variant. A composite model of these 3 GAs was associated with inferior PFS in a dose-dependent manner. CONCLUSION:In mRCC, a composite model of TP53 mutation, wild type VHL, and FLT1 C/C variant strongly predicted PFS on first-line VEGF TT in a dose-dependent manner. These findings require external validation.

Primary tumor response to targeted agents in patients with metastatic renal cell carcinoma.

Project description:The recent development of multiple targeted agents for metastatic renal cell carcinoma (mRCC) has changed the treatment paradigm; hence the benefit and optimal timing of cytoreductive nephrectomy is being reevaluated.To determine primary tumor response to treatment with targeted agents in patients with mRCC.We reviewed the clinical and radiographic data of all mRCC patients seen at our institution between November 2004 and December 2009 without prior systemic treatment who received targeted therapy with their primary tumor in situ.Two independent reviewers measured the diameter of primary and metastatic tumors at baseline and subsequent scans, using Response Evaluation Criteria Solid Tumors (RECIST) v.1.1 to assess disease response.We identified 168 consecutive patients with a median 15 mo of follow-up and a median maximum tumor diameter of 9.6 cm. Median maximum primary tumor response was -7.1% (interquartile range: -14.0 to -0.1). A total of 61 patients had multiple studies available for evaluation. In 43 patients with <10% decrease in primary tumor within in the first 60 d, median maximum response was -7.2% at 154 d versus -24.5% maximum response at 174.5 d for 18 patients with ?10% decrease in primary tumor during the initial 60 d.Decrease in primary tumor diameter >30% while on targeted therapy for mRCC is rare, with most patients demonstrating minimal or no decrease in primary tumor diameter. Early response predicts a better overall primary tumor response.

Tumour shrinkage measured with first treatment evaluation under VEGF-targeted therapy as prognostic marker in metastatic renal cell carcinoma (mRCC).

Project description:The aim of our analysis is to further characterise the prognostic relevance of early tumour shrinkage (TS) during VEGF-targeted therapy in mRCC, in order to explore whether this could define a group of patients with long-term survivorship.A hundred patients were stratified into five subgroups according to their change of tumour size with first treatment evaluation: -100% to -60%; -59% to -30% and -29% to 0% TS or gain of tumour size from 1% to 19% and ≤20% or occurrence of new lesions (i.e., progressive disease).The median PFS and OS were 10.4 months and 28.2 months, respectively. The median OS stratified according to the subgroups as described above was 77.4, 33.5, 26.9, 30.0 and 14.3 months, respectively. Multivariate analysis revealed early TS as a prognostic marker (P=0.021; HR 1.624).The extent of TS defines a small proportion of patients with an excellent prognosis. Larger studies are warranted to define the relationship of long-term survivorship and extent of TS with targeted therapies.

Early Tumor Shrinkage as a Predictive Factor for Outcomes in Hepatocellular Carcinoma Patients Treated with Lenvatinib: A Multicenter Analysis.

Project description:We investigated the association between early tumor shrinkage (ETS) and treatment outcome in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma treated with lenvatinib (LEN). A retrospective analysis was performed in 104 patients. ETS was defined as tumor shrinkage at the first evaluation in the sum of target lesions' longest diameters from baseline according to the Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST). The median overall survival (OS) was not reached, whereas the median progression-free survival (PFS) was 5.0 months. The receiver operating characteristic curve analysis in differentiating long-term responders (PFS ≥ 5.0 months) from short-term responders (PFS < 5.0 months) revealed an ETS cut-off value of 10%. ETS ≥ 10% was significantly correlated with better PFS and OS compared with ETS < 10%. Additionally, ETS ≥ 10% showed a better discrimination ability on prognosis compared with modified RECIST-based objective response at the first evaluation. Multivariate analysis confirmed ETS ≥ 10% as an independent predictor of better OS, as well as a Child-Pugh score of 5 and macrovascular invasion. In conclusion, ETS ≥ 10% was strongly associated with outcome in patients treated with LEN. This biomarker could allow earlier assessment of the treatment response and guide treatment decision-making for HCC.

Survival and clinical prognostic factors in metastatic non-clear cell renal cell carcinoma treated with targeted therapy: A multi-institutional, retrospective study using the Korean metastatic renal cell carcinoma registry.

Project description:ObjectivesThe optimal treatment strategy for metastatic non-clear cell renal cell carcinoma (mNCCRCC) is still elusive and mainly extrapolated from evidence available for metastatic clear cell renal cell carcinoma. The aim of the study was therefore to investigate the survival outcomes and prognostic factors affecting survival in patients with mNCCRCC treated with targeted therapy.Materials and methodsWe analyzed a total of 156 patients (8.1%) with mNCCRCC among the total cohort of 1922 patients in the Korean metastatic RCC registry. We used Kaplan-Meier curve analysis to calculate the survival estimates for first-line progression-free survival (PFS), total PFS, and cancer-specific survival (CSS). We also used the log-rank test to compare the different groups and multivariate Cox-proportional hazard regression analyses to evaluate the prognostic factors for survival.ResultsThe mNCCRCC group had significantly inferior survival outcomes in terms of first-line PFS, total PFS, and CSS (all P < 0.05). We found survival benefits in patients treated with first-line vascular endothelial growth factor-tyrosine kinase inhibitors (VEGF-TKIs, first-line PFS, and total PFS, all P < 0.05), cytoreductive nephrectomy (CSS, P < 0.0001), metastasectomy (CSS, P = 0.0017), and patients with metachronous metastasis (first-line PFS, total PFS, and CSS, all P < 0.05). Liver metastasis was the only significant prognostic factor for both first-line PFS and CSS (all P < 0.05).ConclusionsIn the current targeted therapy era, survival of mNCCRCC is still inferior in comparison with that of mCCRCC patients. We found survival benefits in patients treated with first-line VEGF-TKIs/CN/metastasectomy, and metachronous metastasis patients.

Stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) for metastatic renal cell carcinoma: A multi-institutional experience.

Project description:Objectives: Examine local control(LC), overall survival(OS), and toxicity following stereotactic body radiation therapy(SBRT) for patients with metastatic renal cell carcinoma(mRCC). Methods: A multi-institutional registry was queried. Potential predictive factors of LC and OS were evaluated with a Cox-proportional hazards model for multivariate analysis(MVA). Results: We identified 115 mRCC patients with 181 lesions. Median biologically effective dose (BED7) was 72.9 Gy7 (range: 42.9-231.4 Gy7) with a median dose/fraction of 10 Gy (range: 5-24 Gy). Utilizing both Karnofsky Performance Score (KPS) and presence of osseous metastatic disease as prognostic indicators, estimated 2-year OS rates were 67.7% (95% CI: 49.9-89.5%), 31.8% (95% CI: 19.0-45.3%), and 20% (95% CI: 1.4-54.7%; p=0.0012). One- and 2-year LC rates were 88.2% and 82.7%, respectively, with no prognostic factors identified. Roughly 13% of patients reported toxicities with one Grade 3-5 toxicity. Conclusion: SBRT was well-tolerated with promising LC. Both KPS and osseous metastatic disease should be considered in determining which patients with mRCC may preferentially benefit from SBRT.

Significance of upfront cytoreductive nephrectomy stratified by IMDC risk for metastatic renal cell carcinoma in targeted therapy era - a multi-institutional retrospective study.

Project description:BackgroundThis retrospective multicenter study aimed to evaluate the survival benefit of upfront cytoreductive nephrectomy (CN) in metastatic renal cell carcinoma (RCC) patients stratified by International Metastatic RCC Database Consortium (IMDC) risk criteria.MethodsWe reviewed the medical records in the Michinoku Database between 2008 and 2019. Patients who received upfront CN, systemic therapy without CN (no CN) and CN after drug therapy (deferred CN) were analyzed. To exclude selection bias due to patient characteristics, baseline clinical data were adjusted by inverse probability of treatment weighting (IPTW). Overall survival (OS) was compared between upfront CN and non-upfront CN (no CN plus deferred CN). Associations between time-varying covariates including systemic therapies and OS stratified by IMDC risk criteria were analyzed by IPTW-adjusted Cox regression method.ResultsOf 259 patients who fulfilled the selection criteria, 107 were classified in upfront CN and 152 in non-upfront CN group. After IPTW-adjusted analysis, upfront CN showed survival benefit compared to non-upfront CN in patients with IMDC intermediate risk (median OS: 52.5 versus 31.3 months, p < 0.01) and in patients with IMDC poor risk (27.2 versus 11.4 months, p < 0.01). In IPTW-adjusted Cox regression analysis of time-varying covariates, upfront CN was independently associated with OS benefit in patients with IMDC intermediate risk (hazard ratio 0.52, 95% confidence interval 0.29-0.93, p = 0.03) and in patients with IMDC poor risk (0.26, 0.11-0.59, p < 0.01).ConclusionsUpfront CN may confer survival benefit in RCC patients with IMDC intermediate and poor risk.

Circulating tumor DNA analysis of metastatic renal cell carcinoma.

Project description:The genomic landscape of metastatic renal cell carcinoma (RCC) is not well understood, and currently available data suggest that it is functionally distinct from that of localized tumors. Additionally, the large number of approved and trial agents used to treat metastatic RCC likely cause selective adaptations in the tumors. Circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) is a platform to non-invasively determine the genomic profiles of these tumors. The objectives of the present study were to corroborate previous ctDNA studies in metastatic RCC, to identify novel mutations in metastatic RCC, and to compare ctDNA profiles obtained from plasma and urine in patients with metastatic RCC. ctDNA sequencing using the plasma and urine of 50 patients with metastatic RCC who received ctDNA profiling as part of routine clinical care at a single institution was performed using an investigational 120-gene panel. Genomic alterations (GAs) were identified in all 50 patients. The genes with the most GAs were GNAS, PTEN, MYC, MET and HNF1A and novel mutations in additional genes were identified. A significant correlation between the number of GAs detected in matched urine and plasma samples was also identified, but only 28.1% of GAs detected in plasma samples were also detected in matched urine samples. The results of the present study were consistent with those of the largest previous study of ctDNA from patients with metastatic RCC and may help identify additional potential targets for the treatment of such patients.

A comprehensive overview of targeted therapy in metastatic renal cell carcinoma.

Project description:Chemotherapy and immunotherapy failed to deliver decisive results in the systemic treatment of metastatic renal cell carcinoma. Agents representing the current standards operate on members of the RAS signal transduction pathway. Sunitinib (targeting vascular endothelial growth factor), temsirolimus (an inhibitor of the mammalian target of rapamycin - mTOR) and pazopanib (a multi-targeted receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitor) are used in the first line of recurrent disease. A combination of bevacizumab (inhibition of angiogenesis) plus interferon α is also first-line therapy. Second line options include everolimus (another mTOR inhibitor) as well as tyrosine kinase inhibitors for patients who previously received cytokine. We review the results of clinical investigations focusing on survival benefit for these agents. Additionally, trials focusing on new agents, including the kinase inhibitors axitinib, tivozanib, dovitinib and cediranib and monoclonal antibodies including velociximab are also discussed. In addition to published outcomes we also include follow-up and interim results of ongoing clinical trials. In summary, we give a comprehensive overview of current advances in the systemic treatment of metastatic renal cell carcinoma.

Targeted therapies for the treatment of metastatic renal cell carcinoma: clinical evidence.

Project description:Although systemic therapy for patients with metastatic renal cell carcinoma (mRCC) was once limited to the cytokines interleukin-2 and interferon (IFN)-?, in recent years several targeted therapies have become available for first- and second-line use. These include sorafenib, sunitinib, bevacizumab (plus IFN-?), temsirolimus, everolimus, and, most recently, pazopanib. This expanded list of treatment options arose from molecular biological research that revealed aberrant signal transduction activities in RCC, enabling the identification of specific molecular targets for therapy. Molecular-targeted therapies have better efficacy and tolerability than cytokine therapy, and many are administered orally. The superior outcomes achieved with molecular-targeted agents are prompting investigators to reconsider overall survival as a primary endpoint in clinical trials, given the inherent complications of a required long duration of follow-up, a required large population, and confounding caused by crossover trial designs or effects of subsequent therapy after progression on the agent of interest. In mRCC trials, progression-free survival has become a popular primary endpoint and has served as the basis of approval for several targeted therapies. In addition to the identification of new agents, current research is focused on the evaluation of combination therapy with targeted agents. As more information regarding mechanisms of disease and drug resistance becomes available, new targets, new targeted agents, and new combinations will be studied with the goal of providing maximal efficacy with minimal toxicity. This article reviews the clinical evidence supporting the benefits of targeted agents in mRCC treatment, discusses survival endpoints used in their pivotal clinical trials, and outlines future research directions.
