Phase Ib/II study of nivolumab combined with palliative radiation therapy for bone metastasis in patients with HER2-negative metastatic breast cancer.

ABSTRACT: Radiation therapy (RT) can enhance the abscopal effect of immune checkpoint blockade. This phase I/II study investigated the efficacy and safety of nivolumab plus RT in HER2-negative metastatic breast cancer requiring palliative RT for bone metastases. Cohort A included luminal-like disease, and cohort B included both luminal-like and triple-negative disease refractory to standard systemic therapy. Patients received 8 Gy single fraction RT for bone metastasis on day 0. Nivolumab was administered on day 1 for each 14-day cycle. In cohort A, endocrine therapy was administered. The primary endpoint was the objective response rate (ORR) of the unirradiated lesions. Cohorts A and B consisted of 18 and 10 patients, respectively. The ORR was 11% (90% CI 4-29%) in cohort A and 0% in cohort B. Disease control rates were 39% (90% CI 23-58%) and 0%. Median progression-free survival was 4.1 months (95% CI 2.1-6.1 months) and 2.0 months (95% CI 1.2-3.7 months). One patient in cohort B experienced a grade 3 adverse event. Palliative RT combined with nivolumab was safe and showed modest anti-tumor activity in cohort A. Further investigations to enhance the anti-tumor effect of endocrine therapy combined with RT plus immune checkpoint blockade are warranted.Trial registration number and date of registration UMIN: UMIN000026046, February 8, 2017; ClinicalTrials.gov: NCT03430479, February 13, 2018; Date of the first registration: June 22, 2017.

Project description:BackgroundXentuzumab-a humanised IgG1 monoclonal antibody-binds IGF-1 and IGF-2, inhibiting their growth-promoting signalling and suppressing AKT activation by everolimus. This phase Ib/II exploratory trial evaluated xentuzumab plus everolimus and exemestane in hormone receptor-positive, locally advanced and/or metastatic breast cancer (LA/MBC).MethodsPatients with hormone receptor-positive/HER2-negative LA/MBC resistant to non-steroidal aromatase inhibitors were enrolled. Maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and recommended phase II dose (RP2D) of xentuzumab/everolimus/exemestane were determined in phase I (single-arm, dose-escalation). In phase II (open-label), patients were randomised 1:1 to the RP2D of xentuzumab/everolimus/exemestane or everolimus/exemestane alone. Randomisation was stratified by the presence of visceral metastases. Primary endpoint was progression-free survival (PFS).ResultsMTD was determined as xentuzumab 1000 mg weekly plus everolimus 10 mg/day and exemestane 25 mg/day. A total of 140 patients were enrolled in phase II (70 to each arm). Further recruitment was stopped following an unfavourable benefit-risk assessment by the internal Data Monitoring Committee appointed by the sponsor. Xentuzumab was discontinued; patients could receive everolimus/exemestane if clinically indicated. Median PFS was 7.3 months (95% CI 3.3-not calculable) in the xentuzumab/everolimus/exemestane group and 5.6 months (3.7-9.1) in the everolimus/exemestane group (hazard ratio 0.97, 95% CI 0.57-1.65; P = 0.9057). In a pre-specified subgroup of patients without visceral metastases at screening, xentuzumab/everolimus/exemestane showed evidence of PFS benefit versus everolimus/exemestane (hazard ratio 0.21 [0.05-0.98]; P = 0.0293). Most common any-cause adverse events in phase II were diarrhoea (29 [41.4%] in the xentuzumab/everolimus/exemestane group versus 20 [29.0%] in the everolimus/exemestane group), mucosal inflammation (27 [38.6%] versus 21 [30.4%]), stomatitis (24 [34.3%] versus 24 [34.8%]), and asthenia (21 [30.0%] versus 24 [34.8%]).ConclusionsAddition of xentuzumab to everolimus/exemestane did not improve PFS in the overall population, leading to early discontinuation of the trial. Evidence of PFS benefit was observed in patients without visceral metastases when treated with xentuzumab/everolimus/exemestane, leading to initiation of the phase II XENERA™-1 trial (NCT03659136).Trial registrationClinicalTrials.gov, NCT02123823 .

Project description:BackgroundBrain metastases are a common cause of disabling neurologic complications and death in patients with metastatic melanoma. Previous studies of nivolumab combined with ipilimumab in metastatic melanoma have excluded patients with untreated brain metastases. We evaluated the efficacy and safety of nivolumab plus ipilimumab in patients with melanoma who had untreated brain metastases.MethodsIn this open-label, multicenter, phase 2 study, patients with metastatic melanoma and at least one measurable, nonirradiated brain metastasis (tumor diameter, 0.5 to 3 cm) and no neurologic symptoms received nivolumab (1 mg per kilogram of body weight) plus ipilimumab (3 mg per kilogram) every 3 weeks for up to four doses, followed by nivolumab (3 mg per kilogram) every 2 weeks until progression or unacceptable toxic effects. The primary end point was the rate of intracranial clinical benefit, defined as the percentage of patients who had stable disease for at least 6 months, complete response, or partial response.ResultsAmong 94 patients with a median follow-up of 14.0 months, the rate of intracranial clinical benefit was 57% (95% confidence interval [CI], 47 to 68); the rate of complete response was 26%, the rate of partial response was 30%, and the rate of stable disease for at least 6 months was 2%. The rate of extracranial clinical benefit was 56% (95% CI, 46 to 67). Treatment-related grade 3 or 4 adverse events were reported in 55% of patients, including events involving the central nervous system in 7%. One patient died from immune-related myocarditis. The safety profile of the regimen was similar to that reported in patients with melanoma who do not have brain metastases.ConclusionsNivolumab combined with ipilimumab had clinically meaningful intracranial efficacy, concordant with extracranial activity, in patients with melanoma who had untreated brain metastases.

Project description:BackgroundThe relative lack of specifically targeted agents for HER2-negative metastatic breast cancer (MBC) makes the need for new agents or combination therapies to maximize clinical benefit while reducing toxicity critical.ObjectivesTo retrospectively analyze the efficacy and safety of eribulin combined with antiangiogenic drugs in the treatment of Chinese women with HER2-negative MBC.MethodsA total of 85 consecutive MBC patients with HER2-negative who were treated with eribulin + antiangiogenic agents between October 2020 and April 2023 in four institutions were retrospectively included in this study. Patients received eribulin 1.4 mg/m2 (day 1 and 8) plus bevacizumab 7.5 mg/kg (day 1, 64 patients) or anlotinib 10 mg daily (day 1-14, 16 patients) or apatinib 250 mg daily (5 patients) on a 21-day cycle until progression or unacceptable toxicity. The primary end-point was progression-free survival (PFS), according to Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid tumors (RECIST) 1.1. Secondary end-points included toxicities, objective response rate (ORR), disease control rate (DCR), and overall survival (OS). Adverse events (AEs) were graded according to Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) version 5.0.ResultsThe study included 85 HER2-negative MBC patients, with 41 patients (48.2%) in the first to second line group and 44 patients (51.8%) in the greater than or equal to third line group. The median age was 54.0 years. Thirty patients in the first to second line group and 14 patients in the greater than or equal to third line group had triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC). The ORR and DCR were 34.1% (29/85) and 75.3% (64/85). The median PFS (mPFS) of total population was 6.0 months (95% CI: 4.3-7.7), and median OS (mOS) was immature. The mPFS was 7.7 and 4.3 months in the first to second and greater than or equal to third line treatment (p = 0.003), respectively. TNBC patients in first to second line therapy showed a significantly longer PFS (6.5 months versus 2.0 months, p = 0.021) compared to greater than or equal to third line. The incidences of cardiovascular toxicity were 29.4% in grades 1-2 and no grades 3-4. Hematologic toxicity (leukopenia and neutropenia) was the most common grade ⩾3 AEs, and AEs were more common in patients in greater than or equal to third line.ConclusionThe results suggest that eribulin combined with antiangiogenic therapy has a meaningful clinical activity and an acceptable safety profile in HER2-negative MBC.
