ABCG2 Protein Levels and Association to Response to First-Line Irinotecan-Based Therapy for Patients with Metastatic Colorectal Cancer.

ABSTRACT: In this study we investigated the use of cancer cell protein expression of ABCG2 to predict efficacy of systemic first-line irinotecan containing therapy in patients with metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC). From a Danish national cohort, we identified 119 mCRC patients treated with irinotecan containing therapy in first-line setting. Among these, 108 were eligible for analyses. Immunohistochemistry (IHC) analyses were performed on the primary tumor tissue in order to classify samples as high or low presence of ABCG2 protein. Data were then associated with patient outcome (objective response (OR), progression free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS)). ABCG2 protein expression in the basolateral membrane was high (score 3+) in 33% of the patients. Exploratory analyses revealed a significant interaction between ABCG2 score, adjuvant treatment and OR (p = 0.041) in the 101 patients with evaluable disease. Patients with low ABCG2 (score 0-2) and no prior adjuvant therapy had a significantly higher odds ratio of 5.6 (Confidence Interval (CI) 1.68-18.7; p = 0.005) for obtaining OR. In contrast, no significant associations between ABCG2 expression and PFS or OS were found. These results suggest that measurement of the ABCG2 drug efflux pump might be used to select patients with mCRC for irinotecan treatment. However, additional studies are warranted before conclusions regarding a clinical use can be made. Moreover, patients with high ABCG2 immunoreactivity could be candidates for specific ABCG2 inhibition treatment in combination with irinotecan.

Project description:The FOLFOXIRI regimen (irinotecan, oxaliplatin, fluorouracil [5-FU] and folinic acid [FA]) increased the response rate and overall survival compared to FOLFIRI in patients with metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC). Adding cetuximab to FOLFOX or FOLFIRI increased efficacy in patients with k-ras wild type mCRC. We explored the dose limiting toxicity and feasibility of the combination cetuximab, irinotecan, oxaliplatin, 5-FU and FA in mCRC patients.In a dose-escalation study patients with previously untreated mCRC and a WHO performance status 0-1 received cetuximab (500 mg/m2, 2 h), followed by irinotecan (95, 125, and 165 mg/m2 in the dose levels [DL] 1, 2, and 3 respectively), followed by oxaliplatin (85 mg/m2, 2 h) which was given parallel to FA (400 mg/m2, 2 h) and followed by 5-FU (3200 mg/m2, 46 h) in an outpatient setting every two weeks. The primary endpoints were the maximum tolerable dose and the safety. The trial was approved by the local ethics committee.From 2007 to 2008, twenty patients were treated in this trial. In the first dose level (irinotecan 95 mg/m2) one patient developed neutropenia grade 4. One patient experienced diarrhoea grade 3 as DLT in dose level 2 (irinotecan 125 mg/m2). In dose level 3 (irinotecan 165 mg/m2), three patients experienced a DLT (diarrhoea grade 3 and two patients with neutropenia grade 4). Thus, the recommended dose for a phase II trial is 125 mg/m2 irinotecan in combination with oxaliplatin, 5-FU/FA and cetuximab. Most common grade ?3 toxicities were neutropenia (40%), diarrhoea (25%) and acne-like rash (15%). No therapy associated death occurred.The confirmed overall response rate in all cohorts was 75% (95%-CI 51-91%). The best response was reached after a median of 3.0 (95%-CI 2.2 to 3.7) months. Median progression free survival (PFS) is 16 (95%-CI 12.6-19.4) months, overall survival (OS) 33 (95%-CI 26.2-39.8) months.The combination of cetuximab and FOLFOXIRIis feasible and has an acceptable toxicity profile in patients with a good performance status. The observed clinical activity with a confirmed response rate of 75% is promising and further evaluated in the ongoing CELIM2.http://www.clinicaltrials.gov: NCT00422773.

Project description:Purpose: Treatment of advanced pancreatic cancer with a single therapeutic at a maximal dose has been largely ineffective at increasing survival. Combination therapies are commonly studied but often limited by toxicity. We previously showed that low-dose multiagent therapy with gemcitabine, docetaxel (taxotere), capecitabine (xeloda), and cisplatin (GTX-C) was safe, well tolerated, and effective (NCT01459614). Here, we hypothesize that adding irinotecan to GTX-C may improve survival with minimal toxicity. Experimental Design: Patients with treatment-naïve metastatic pancreatic adenocarcinoma were treated with gemcitabine, docetaxel (taxotere), capecitabine (xeloda), cisplatin, and irinotecan (GTX-CI). Treatment consisted of capecitabine 500 mg twice daily on days 1–14 and gemcitabine 300 to 500 mg/m2, docetaxel 20 mg/m2, cisplatin 15 to 20 mg/m2, and irinotecan 20 to 60 mg/m2 on days 4 and 11 of a 21-day cycle. The primary objective was 9-month overall survival (OS). Secondary objectives included response rate (RR), disease control rate (DCR), progression-free survival (PFS), and OS. Results: The regimen was well tolerated. The recommended phase II dose was gemcitabine 500 mg/m2, docetaxel 20 mg/m2, capecitabine 500 mg po bid, cisplatin 20 mg/m2, and irinotecan 20 mg/m2. Median follow-up in phase II was 11.02 months (2.37–45.17). Nine-month OS rate was 57% [95% confidence interval (CI): (41–77)]. RR was 57% [95% CI: (37–75) 50% PR and 7% CR]. DCR was 87% [95% CI: (69–96)]. Median OS and PFS were 11.02 [95% CI: (8.54–21.09)] and 8.34 [95% CI: (6.34–NA)] months, respectively. Conclusions: The addition of irinotecan to GTX-C was safe and well tolerated. While the study did not meet its primary objective, the responses were clinically meaningful using a well-tolerated regimen. Significance: We aimed to optimize the previously reported efficacious regimen of low-dose multiagent therapy with GTX-C for the treatment of metastatic pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma by adding irinotecan. The primary objective was not met, but GTX-CI was well tolerated. The RR of 57%, median PFS of 8.3 months, median OS of 11 months, and 36-month OS rate of 19% suggest clinical benefit. Further optimization of this regimen is warranted.

Project description:Purpose:Several studies have proved that single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of mismatch repair system genes are closely related to the development of colorectal cancer (CRC) by causing microsatellite instability, while effects of the SNPs of MMR system-related genes on the clinical outcomes of cytotoxic chemotherapy are less understood. The aim of this study explored the influence of MLH1 SNPs on clinical outcomes of first-line irinotecan-based chemotherapy in CRC. Patients and methods:A total of 125 metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC) patients who received first-line irinotecan-based chemotherapy (none of them combined with bevacizumab or cetuximab) were enrolled in this study. Blood samples or formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded tissues of study population were taken. DNA isolation and genotyping analyzed were obtained for potential functional polymorphisms of MLH1 rs1800734 by real-time PCR. Progression-free survival (PFS) was the primary endpoint and tumor response rate (RR) was the secondary endpoint of this study. Results:Of all the assessable population, the result showed no statistical difference among the three types SNPs of MLH1 rs1800734 (AA, AG, GG) for RR (P=0.859), and also without significant difference for AA + AG combined variants vs GG variant (P=0.849). The median PFS for AA, AG, and GG variants of MLH1 rs1800734 SNPs were 9.4 months, 7.0 months, and 6.9 months, respectively (log-rank P=0.031). Interestingly, compared with AA variant of MLH1 rs1800734 SNPs, GG variant showed a shorter PFS (HR: 3.49; 95 CI: 1.02-11.94; P=0.046). Furthermore, the median PFS of AA + AG combined variants and GG variant were 8.3 months and 6.9 months (log-rank P=0.037), and GG variant have a decreased trend with no significant difference (HR: 1.57; 95 CI: 0.98-2.53; P=0.061). Conclusion:The AA variant of MLH1 rs1800734 SNPs has a longer PFS in first-line irinotecan-based chemotherapy for mCRC patients, and the result needs to be further confirmed by prospective studies in the future.
