A phase II study of FOLFOXIRI plus bevacizumab as initial chemotherapy for patients with untreated metastatic colorectal cancer: TRICC1414 (BeTRI).

ABSTRACT:

Purpose

FOLFOXIRI plus bevacizumab is regarded as a first-line therapeutic option for selected patients with metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC). Our aim was to assess the efficacy and safety of induction treatment with FOLFOXIRI plus bevacizumab in patients with untreated mCRC harboring UGT1A1 wild (*1/*1), or single-hetero (*1/*6 or *1/*28) genotypes.

Methods

Twelve cycles of FOLFOXIRI plus bevacizumab were administered to patients with untreated mCRC. The primary endpoint was the overall response rate (ORR) assessed by central independent reviewers. Secondary endpoints included time to treatment failure (TTF), progression-free survival (PFS), overall survival (OS), relative dose intensity (RDI), R0 resection rate, and safety. The exploratory objectives were early tumor shrinkage (ETS) and depth of response (DoR).

Results

Of the 47 patients enrolled, 46 and 44 patients were eligible for the safety and efficacy analysis, respectively. The primary endpoint was met. The ORR was 63.6% (95% CI 47.8-77.6). At a median follow-up of 25.4 months, median TTF, PFS, and OS was 8.1, 15.5, and 34.4 months, respectively. The median RDI of 5-fluorouracil, irinotecan, oxaliplatin, and bevacizumab was 72, 69, 62, and 71%, respectively. R0 resection rate was 22.7%. Grade 3 or higher adverse events (??10%) included neutropenia (65.2%), febrile neutropenia (26.1%), leukopenia (23.9%), anorexia (10.9%), nausea (10.9%), and diarrhoea (10.9%). No treatment-related deaths were observed. ETS and DoR were 70.5 and 45.4%, respectively.

Conclusions

FOLFOXIRI plus bevacizumab induction treatment of Japanese patients was shown to be beneficial and manageable, although caution is required since the treatment causes febrile neutropenia.

Project description:BackgroundImmune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) reported remarkable achievements in several solid tumours. However, in metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC) promising results are limited to patients with deficient mismatch repair/microsatellite instability-high (dMMR/MSI-high) tumours due to their immune-enriched microenvironment. Combining cytotoxic agents and bevacizumab in mCRC with proficient mismatch repair/microsatellite stability (pMMR/MSS) could make ICIs efficacious by increasing the exposure of neoantigens, especially with highly active chemotherapy regimens, inducing immunogenic cell death, increasing the tumoral infiltration of CD8+ T-cells and reducing tumour-associated myeloid-derived suppressor cells. VEGF-blockade also plays an immunomodulatory role by inhibiting the expansion of T regulatory lymphocytes. Consistently with this rationale, a phase Ib study combined the anti-PDL-1 atezolizumab with FOLFOX/bevacizumab as first-line treatment of mCRC, irrespective of microsatellite status, and reported interesting activity and efficacy results, without safety concerns. Phase III trials led to identify FOLFOXIRI plus bevacizumab as an upfront therapeutic option in selected mCRC patients. Drawing from these considerations, the combination of atezolizumab with an intensified upfront treatment (FOLFOXIRI) and bevacizumab could be worthy of investigation.MethodsAtezoTRIBE is a prospective, open label, phase II, comparative trial in which initially unresectable and previously untreated mCRC patients, irrespective of microsatellite status, are randomized in a 1:2 ratio to receive up to 8 cycles of FOLFOXIRI/bevacizumab alone or in combination with atezolizumab, followed by maintenance with bevacizumab plus 5-fluoruracil/leucovorin with or without atezolizumab according to treatment arm until disease progression. The primary endpoint is PFS. Assuming a median PFS of 12 months for standard arm, 201 patients should be randomized in a 1:2 ratio to detect a hazard ratio of 0.66 in favour of the experimental arm. A safety run-in phase including the first 6 patients enrolled in the FOLFOXIRI/bevacizumab/atezolizumab arm was planned, and no unexpected adverse events or severe toxicities were highlighted by the Safety Monitoring Committee.DiscussionThe AtezoTRIBE study aims at assessing whether the addition of atezolizumab to an intensified chemotherapy plus bevacizumab might be an efficacious upfront strategy for the treatment of mCRC, irrespective of the microsatellite status.Trial registrationAtezoTRIBE is registered at Clinicaltrials.gov ( NCT03721653 ), October 26th, 2018 and at EUDRACT (2017-000977-35), Februray 28th, 2017.

Project description:BackgroundFirst-line treatment with FOLFOXIRI plus bevacizumab (BEV) is highly effective and regarded as one of the standards-of-care for patients with metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC), despite the high incidence of neutropenia and diarrhea as side effects. AXEPT, an Asian phase III study, showed that modified CAPIRI+BEV [capecitabine (CAP: 1600 mg/m2), irinotecan (IRI: 200 mg/m2), and BEV (7.5 mg/m2)] was non-inferior to FOLFIRI+BEV as a second-line therapy for mCRC patients and was associated with a lower incidence of hematologic toxicities. Thus, a reduced dose of the CAP and IRI regimen in combination with oxaliplatin (OX) and BEV (CAPOXIRI+BEV) may be more feasible than FOLFOXIRI+BEV, without compromising efficacy.MethodsQUATTRO-II is an open-label, multicenter, randomized phase II study. In Step 1, the recommended doses of OX and IRI will be investigated as a safety lead-in. In Step 2, patients will be randomized to the recommended dose of either CAPOXIRI+BEV or FOLFOXIRI+BEV. Induction triplet chemotherapy plus BEV treatments will be administered for up to 4 months followed by fluoropyrimidine plus BEV maintenance. The primary endpoint is progression-free survival (PFS). The similarity in PFS between the two arms will be evaluated by observing whether the point estimate of hazard ratio (HR) for PFS falls between 0.80 and 1.25. Ensuring a 70% probability that the observed HR will be "0.8 < HR < 1.25" under the assumption of the true HR of 1.0, and 100 patients will be evaluated during the 3-year study period. Secondary endpoints include overall survival, overall response rate, safety, and patient reported outcome (PRO) (FACT/GOG-Ntx4).DiscussionConsidering the lower incidence of hematologic toxicities with modified CAPIRI+BEV than with FOLFIRI+BEV, CAPOXIRI+BEV may be a promising treatment option if sufficient efficacy and lower hematologic toxicities are indicated in this study. Additionally, a lower incidence of peripheral sensory neuropathy (PSN) reported following CAPEOX treatment compared to that after FOLFOX in ACHIEVE, an adjuvant phase III trial, suggest that CAPOXIRI+BEV can mitigate OX-induced PSN.Trial registrationClinicaltrials.gov NCT04097444 .
