Safety and Efficacy Results of a Phase I, Open-Label Study of Concurrent and Delayed Nivolumab in Combination With nab-Paclitaxel and Carboplatin in Advanced Non-small Cell Lung Cancer.

ABSTRACT: Introduction: Multicenter, phase I study of concurrent and delayed nivolumab plus nab-paclitaxel/carboplatin in advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Methods: Chemotherapy-naive patients with advanced NSCLC (ineligible for potentially curative radiation or surgery) received nab-paclitaxel 100 mg/m2 (days 1, 8, 15) and carboplatin area under the curve 6 (day 1) intravenously every 21 days (first 4 cycles); nivolumab 5 mg/kg was administered intravenously (day 15) beginning in cycle 1 (concurrent) or cycle 3 (delayed) in separate cohorts and continued beyond the 4 chemotherapy cycles. The primary objective was to assess safety. Secondary objectives were to assess tolerability and explore antitumor activity. Results: All 32 patients received chemotherapy; 20 of 22 and 6 of 10 patients also received concurrent or delayed nivolumab, respectively. No dose-limiting toxicities were reported in the concurrent cohort; 1 dose-limiting toxicity was reported in the delayed cohort. In the concurrent cohort, 20 patients (91%) had ?1 grade 3/4 treatment-emergent adverse event (TEAE), and 7 (32%) discontinued treatment due to TEAEs. In the delayed cohort, all patients had ?1 grade 3/4 TEAE, and 2 (20%) discontinued due to TEAEs. The median progression-free and overall survival, respectively, were 10.5 and 29.3 months in the concurrent cohort and 4.1 and 8.2 months in the delayed cohort. Conclusions: The safety profile of the combination was consistent with that of individual agents and generally similar in the 2 cohorts. Efficacy outcomes in the concurrent cohort, but not in the delayed cohort, were encouraging and support the rationale for concurrent administration of nivolumab with nab-paclitaxel/carboplatin for the treatment of advanced NSCLC.

Project description:IntroductionDespite improvements in the treatment of advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), certain patient populations remain underrepresented in clinical trials. Many patients have benefited from platinum doublets, including nab-paclitaxel-based regimens, but there are patients with comorbidities who particularly require careful balancing of efficacy and safety. Clinical trial data are limited for patients who are elderly or have renal impairment, diabetes, or impaired performance status.MethodsTo better understand outcomes in these patient populations, we performed a pooled analysis using data from the ABOUND clinical trial program (ABOUND.SQM, ABOUND.PS2, ABOUND.70+) and the key phase III trial of nab-paclitaxel/carboplatin in advanced NSCLC. The populations included in this pooled analysis consisted of elderly patients (≥ 70 years) and patients with renal impairment (eGFR < 60 ml/min/1.73 m2), diabetes, or poor performance status (ECOG PS 2).ResultsMedian progression-free survival (PFS) ranged from 4.1 months in patients with ECOG PS 2 (95% CI, 2.04-5.09 months) to 7.7 months in patients with diabetes (95% CI, 5.88-10.12 months). PFS for elderly patients and patients with renal impairment was 6.9 months each (95% CI, 6.01-7.98 months and 4.47-9.79 months, respectively). Median overall survival (OS) was 18.2 months (95% CI, 10.94-28.22 months), 17.4 months (95% CI, 14.59-20.14 months), and 16.1 months (95% CI, 14.09-18.50 months) in patients with renal impairment, patients with diabetes, and elderly patients, respectively. Patients with ECOG PS 2 exhibited the shortest median OS: 5.6 months (95% CI, 3.98-11.37 months). Overall response rates were 56.9%, 54.6%, 45.9%, and 29.4% in patients with diabetes, elderly patients, patients with renal impairment, and patients with ECOG PS 2, respectively. Most treatment-related adverse events were hematologic. The most common grade 3/4 hematologic adverse events in patients with renal impairment, elderly patients, patients with diabetes, and patients with poor performance status included neutropenia, anemia, and thrombocytopenia.ConclusionsAlthough survival data in patients with ECOG PS 2 were notably inferior to the other cohorts, our findings are consistent with those previously reported in the population-specific studies of the ABOUND trials and lend additional support for the use of nab-paclitaxel-based regimens in historically understudied and vulnerable populations.

Project description:BackgroundThis study was performed to assess the efficacy and feasibility of definitive chemoradiotherapy consisting of weekly doses of combined paclitaxel and carboplatin concurrent with radiation therapy, followed by 2 cycles of consolidation chemotherapy for advanced esophageal carcinoma.MethodsEligibility criteria included local, advanced, newly diagnosed and postoperative local regional lymph node metastasis; Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) score ≤ 2; and adequate organ function. Patients received concurrent chemoradiation therapy consisting of radiotherapy (50.4 Gy/28 Fx or 61.2 Gy/34 Fx) and concurrent paclitaxel (50 mg/m2) and carboplatin (area under the curve, AUC = 2) on days 1, 8, 15, 22 and 29. The two-cycle consolidation chemotherapy protocol was paclitaxel (175 mg/m2) plus carboplatin (AUC = 5) administered on days 57 and 85, after concurrent chemoradiotherapy.ResultsBetween August 2013 and February 2015, 65 patients with oesophageal carcinoma were enrolled in the study; 34 (52.3%) were newly diagnosed and 31 (47.6%) had postoperative local regional lymph node metastasis. The median overall survival time was 21.7 months (95% confidence interval [CI] 16.7-26.6), and the median progression-free survival time was 12.1 months (95% CI 9.0-15.3). A total of 96.9% (63/65) and 67.6% (44/65) patients completed ≥5 cycles and all 7 cycles of chemotherapy, respectively. A total of 93.8% (61/65) patients completed radiation therapy. The 1- and 2-year overall survival rates were 73.7 and 42.0%, respectively. The 1- and 2-year progression-free survival rates were 50.6 and 31.1%, respectively. Grade 3-4 toxicity during chemoradiotherapy included neutropenia (24.5%), thrombocytopenia (4.6%), fatigue (1.5%), anaemia (1.5%), radiation dermatitis (1.5%), pneumonitis (1.5%), oesophagitis (4.6%) and vomiting (1.5%).ConclusionsIn patients with locally advanced oesophageal cancer, the combination of weekly doses of paclitaxel and carboplatin was well tolerated and produced comparable results. A three-arm randomised phase III trial (NCT02459457) comparing paclitaxel in combination with cisplatin, carboplatin or 5-fluorouracil with concurrent radiotherapy is on-going at our hospital.
