Phase I Study of CC-486 Alone and in Combination with Carboplatin or nab-Paclitaxel in Patients with Relapsed or Refractory Solid Tumors.

ABSTRACT: Purpose: This large two-part, three-arm phase I study examined the safety and tolerability of CC-486 (an oral formulation of azacitidine, a hypomethylating agent) alone or in combination with the cytotoxic agents, carboplatin or nab-paclitaxel, in patients with advanced unresectable solid tumors.Patients and Methods: Part 1 (n = 57) was a dose escalation of CC-486 alone (arm C) or with carboplatin (arm A) or nab-paclitaxel (arm B). The primary endpoint was safety, MTD, and recommended part 2 dose (RP2D) of CC-486. In part 2 (n = 112), the primary endpoint was the safety and tolerability of CC-486 administered at the RP2D for each treatment arm, in tumor-specific expansion cohorts. Secondary endpoints included pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, and antitumor activity of CC-486.Results: At pharmacologically active doses CC-486 in combination with carboplatin or nab-paclitaxel had a tolerable safety profile and no drug-drug interactions. The CC-486 RP2D was determined as 300 mg (every day, days 1-14/21) in combination with carboplatin (arm A) or as monotherapy (arm C); and 200 mg in the same dosing regimen in combination with nab-paclitaxel (arm B). Albeit limited by the small sample size, CC-486 monotherapy resulted in partial responses (three/eight) and stable disease (four/eight) in patients with nasopharyngeal cancer. Three of the stable disease responses lasted more than 150 days.Conclusions: CC-486 is well tolerated alone or in combination with carboplatin or nab-paclitaxel. Exploratory analyses suggest clinical activity of CC-486 monotherapy in nasopharyngeal cancer and provided the basis for an ongoing phase II clinical trial (ClinicalTrials.gov identifier: NCT02269943).

Project description:To evaluate whether administration of the oral DNA hypomethylating agent CC-486 enhances the poor response rate of immunologically 'cold' solid tumors to immune checkpoint inhibitor durvalumab. PD-L1/PD-1 inhibitor naïve patients with advanced microsatellite stable colorectal cancer; platinum resistant ovarian cancer; and estrogen receptor positive, HER2 negative breast cancer were enrolled in this single-institution, investigator-initiated trial. Two 28 day regimens, regimen A (CC-486 300 mg QD Days 1-14 (cycles 1-3 only) in combination with durvalumab 1500 mg intravenous day 15) and regimen B (CC-486 100 mg QD days 1-21 (cycle 1 and beyond), vitamin C 500 mg once a day continuously and durvalumab 1500 mg intravenous day 15) were investigated. Patients underwent paired tumor biopsies and serial peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) collection for immune-profiling, transcriptomic and epigenomic analyzes. A total of 28 patients were enrolled, 19 patients treated on regimen A and 9 on regimen B. The combination of CC-486 and durvalumab was tolerable. Regimen B, with a lower dose of CC-486 extended over a longer treatment course, showed less grade 3/4 adverse effects. Global LINE-1 methylation assessment of serial PBMCs and genome-wide DNA methylation profile in paired tumor biopsies demonstrated minimal changes in global methylation in both regimens. The lack of robust tumor DNA demethylation was accompanied by an absence of the expected 'viral mimicry' inflammatory response, and consequently, no clinical responses were observed. The disease control rate was 7.1%. The median progression-free survival was 1.9 months (95% CI 1.5 to 2.3) and median overall survival was 5 months (95% CI 4.5 to 10). The evaluated treatment schedules of CC-486 in combination with durvalumab did not demonstrate robust pharmacodynamic or clinical activity in selected immunologically cold solid tumors. Lessons learned from this biomarker-rich study should inform continued drug development efforts using these agents. NCT02811497.

Project description:PurposeAfatinib, an irreversible ErbB family blocker, has demonstrated preclinical antitumor activity with chemotherapy.MethodsAs part of a phase I trial in patients with advanced solid tumors (NCT00809133; 3 + 3 dose-escalation design), we determined the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of afatinib with carboplatin (A/C) or with carboplatin plus paclitaxel (A/C/P). Starting doses: afatinib 20 mg/day, carboplatin AUC6 (A/C) with paclitaxel 175 mg/m2 (A/C/P) (chemotherapy: Day 1 of 21-day cycles). The primary objective was to determine the MTDs; safety, pharmacokinetics and antitumor activity were also evaluated.ResultsThirty-eight patients received A/C (n = 12) or A/C/P (n = 26). No dose-limiting toxicities (DLTs) were reported with A(20 mg)/C(AUC6). One patient experienced DLT in the A(40 mg)/C(AUC6) cohort (grade 3 acneiform rash); A(40 mg)/C(AUC6) was determined as the recommended phase II dose (RP2D) for A/C. Two patients each had DLTs with A(20 mg/day)/C(AUC6)/P(175 mg/m2): fatigue, infection, diarrhea, small intestine hemorrhage, dehydration, renal impairment, neutropenic sepsis (n = 1), mucositis (n = 1); A(40 mg)/C(AUC5)/P(175 mg/m2): febrile neutropenia (n = 1), mucositis, fatigue (n = 1); and A(30 mg)/C(AUC5)/P(175 mg/m2): stomatitis (n = 1), mucositis (n = 1). No DLT was observed with A(20 mg)/C(AUC5)/P(175 mg/m2), determined as the RP2D for A/C/P. The most frequent drug-related adverse events were (A/C; A/C/P): rash (75%; 73%), fatigue (67%; 69%), and diarrhea (58%; 88%). Drug plasma concentrations were similar between cycles, suggesting no drug-drug interactions. Objective response rates in these heavily pretreated patients were A/C, 3/12 (25%); A/C/P, 5/26 (19%).ConclusionsAfatinib 40 mg/day (approved monotherapy dose) with carboplatin AUC6, and afatinib 20 mg/day with carboplatin AUC5 and paclitaxel 175 mg/m2 demonstrated manageable safety and antitumor activity. Afatinib > 20 mg/day in the triple combination was not well tolerated.
