Project description:Background: The prognosis of patients with metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC) is poor, especially after failure of initial systemic therapy. The VELOUR study showed modestly prolonged overall survival (OS) with ziv-aflibercept plus 5-fluorouracil, leucovorin, and irinotecan (zFOLFIRI) vs. placebo+FOLFIRI after progression on 5-fluoruracil, leucovorin, and oxaliplatin (FOLFOX) ± bevacizumab. The utility of zFOLFIRI after bevacizumab+FOLFIRI is unknown and not recommended in NCCN guidelines. We explored whether zFOLFIRI may be active beyond progression on bevacizumab+FOLFIRI. Methods: We undertook a retrospective analysis of patients treated in routine clinical practice. A chart review was conducted for a cohort (N = 19) of advanced cancer patients (18 mCRC) who received zFOLFIRI from 2014 to 2018 at Fox Chase Cancer Center (FCCC). Analysis included time on zFOLFIRI, PFS, OS, CEA trends and adverse events. A second mCRC cohort (N = 26) from the Flatiron Health EHR-derived database treated with zFOLFIRI after prior bevacizumab+FOLFOX and bevacizumab+FOLFIRI was analyzed for time-on-treatment and overall survival. Results: Median age of mCRC cohort at zFOLFIRI treatment was 54 (FCCC; N = 18) and 62 (Flatiron Health-cohort; N = 26). Of 18 FCCC mCRC patients, 1 patient had prior bevacizumab+FOLFOX and ramucirumab+irinotecan prior to zFOLFIRI for 8.5 months. Of 17 FCCC mCRC patients with prior bevacizumab+FOLFIRI who received zFOLFIRI, 13 had mutant-KRAS, 3 WT-KRAS, and one BRAF-V600E. The patient with BRAF-V600E mutation achieved stable disease on zFOLFIRI after multiple BRAF-targeted therapies. One patient (WT-KRAS mCRC) remained on zFOLFIRI for 14 months. Of 14 patients with mutated-KRAS, 8 remained on zFOLFIRI for >5 months including 3 for >15 months. The rate-of-change in CEA measures on zFOLFIRI was significantly different (p = 0.004) between rapid progressors and those with PFS>4 months. For mCRC patients treated with zFOLFIRI in the 3rd line or greater (N = 18), median PFS was 7.1 months (214 days) and median OS was 13.8 months (416 days). Median time-on-treatment with zFOLFIRI in the Flatiron Health cohort was 4.4 months, median OS was 7.8 months, and longest time-on-treatment with zFOLFIRI was 266 days. Conclusions: In these small real-world cohorts, clinical meaningful stable disease and overall survival on zFOLFIRI beyond progression on bevacizumab+FOLFIRI was observed in patients with mCRC. Further exploration of this approach is warranted.

Project description:Background: There are no clinical studies comparing the efficacy of bevacizumab vs.aflibercept in association with folfiri in RAS mutated (RAS-M) metastatic colorectal cancer patients (mCRC) pretreated with folfox and bevacizumab. Patients and Methods: Consecutive RAS-M unresectable mCRC patients progressing to first-line folfox/bevacizumab were treated with 12 cycles of folfiri/bevacizumab (arm A) or folfiri/aflibercept (arm B) at Oncologist discretion. Differences in overall survival between the two schedules were analyzed. Responses and toxicities were described with RECIST and NCI-CTC v4.0, respectively. Results: Seventy-four patients were treated from January 2014 to January 2018; 31 with arm A, 43 with arm B. Among clinical factors there was a predominance of more extended disease (>2 metastatic sites) in arm B (26/43 [60.5%] vs. 10/31 [32.2%] arm A; p = 0.0414). Fifty-nine patients were evaluable for response: arm A, 5 PR (Partial Response), 15 SD (Stable Disease), 8 PD (Progressive Disease); arm B, 5 PR, 16 SD, 10 PD. There were no grade 4 toxic events. Duration of first-line chemotherapy was significantly shorter in patients treated in arm B (12 pts <6 months, 16 pts ≥6, and <12, 15 pts ≥12) vs. arm A (1 pts <6 months, 14 pts ≥6, and <12, 16 pts ≥12) (p = 0.0210); these patients were excluded from survival analysis to avoid prognostic interferences. No maintenance treatment with aflibercept was done in arm B while in arm A bevacizumab with or without fluorouracil and folinic acid were allowed. Median OS were 8.9 months in arm A vs. 12.1 months in arm B (+3.2 months; p = 0.9331, HR: 1.02; 95% CI: 0.57-1.84). Six-months survivals were 65% in arm A and 80% in arm B. Conclusions: Folfiri/bevacizumab and folfiri/aflibercept are equally effective second-line therapies in RAS-M mCRC patients. Although not significant, folfiri/aflibercept was associated with a lower risk of death particularly during the 6-months induction phase.

Project description:Objective: Insights about differences in tumor vasculature and how it reacts to VEGF inhibition is limited, but nevertheless of major relevance to anti-angiogenic therapy. In this study we therefore characterize the effect of bevacizumab combined with chemoradiotherapy (CRT), and explore molecular and genetic markers for response prediction to this combination treatment. Material and Methods: In an academic multicentric randomized phase II study, patients with advanced rectal cancer have been treated with bevacizumab (5mg/kg) in combination with capecitabine (1650mg/m2/day) and radiotherapy (45Gy; 1.8Gy/day) with (50mg/m2) or without oxaliplatin prior to surgery. Of 59 patients, tumor tissue and blood samples were collected before treatment and after the first loading dose of bevacizumab but before CRT (week 3). First, cDNA micro-arrays were performed on the biopsies to investigate differences in gene expression of tumors from patients with and without a pathological complete response (pCR) before start of treatment and to identify biological processes affected by bevacizumab delivery. The paraffin embedded tissue was stained for blood vessels (CD31/CD34) combined with α-SMA (pericytes) and CA-IX (hypoxia). To explore candidate blood-based biomarkers ELISA’s were performed for PDGF-AA, PDGF-BB, THBS-1, IL-8, CYR61 and Ang-2. The expression of all markers was correlated with the pathological response of the patients. Results: Differences in tumoral gene expression are observed between patients with and without a pCR, with the first response group presenting a more angiogenic phenotype before start of treatment and changes in angiogenic processes after bevacizumab delivery. One dose of bevacizumab leads to a decrease in the number of pericyte covered blood vessels, a decrease in circulating PDGF-AA, PDGF-BB and Thrombospondin-1. Patients showing a pCR having less pericyte covered blood vessels, more hypoxia, and less circulating PDGF-BB compared to patients who did not have a pCR after bevacizumab treatment with chemoradiation and bevacizumab. Conclusions: The translational data demonstrate that tumors with an angiogenic expression profile respond better to bevacizumab combined with CRT and points towards a possible role for PDGF, CA-IX and pericyte covered blood vessels for the early response prediction to this treatment. Our findings suggest a role for mural cell recruitment and vessel maturation for the susceptibility of the tumor vasculature to bevacizumab treatment. Further validation of our biological observations and hypothesis generating data in randomized trials is needed.

Project description:Purpose: To study the potential priming benefit of bevacizumab from subsequent immunotherapy (durvalumab) in advanced breast cancer patients Methods: We tested this hypothesis by adding durvalumab after progression to maintenance single-agent bevacizumab treatment in advanced HER2-negative patients (average 3 treatment lines). In order to study the potential priming benefit, patients had to experience disease progression while on bevacizumab maintenance prior to entering the trial. In addition, we sought to find traits in peripheral-blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) and tumor biopsies that informed about this immuno-priming, in an attempt to search for novel biomarkers of efficacy of the combo and obtain a better understanding of the biology of this clinical scenario. Results: Patients that experienced clinical benefit, compared with the remaining patients, displayed a lymphocyte pattern in PBMCs consisting on increased T-effector subpopulations (CD4- and CD8- effector and effector-memory) and decreased immunosuppressive T-regulatory cells. Gene-expression studies in tumor samples showed a congruent pattern, with increased T-effector and memory T cell signatures in responders, and increased T-regulatory and decreased active dendritic cells in non-responders. These events were observed in patients that displayed vascular normalization features as a result of previous bevacizumab, supporting the immuno-priming effects of this strategy.

Our findings suggest a role for mural cell recruitment and vessel maturation for the susceptibility of the tumor vasculature to bevacizumab treatment. Further validation of our biological observations and hypothesis generating data in randomized trials is needed. This study involves samples of patients enrolled in the AXEbeam trail that were analysed by Primeview microarray (Affymetrix). Biopsies were taken at two different timepoints: before treatment (tumor and normal mucosa) and after the first loading dose of bevacizumab but before chemoradiation (only tumor, week 3). Patients were classified into two groups: with a complete pathological response at time of surgery (Responders=R) or non-responders (NR). For the responders, we collected 21 samples in total (7 tumor samples and 8 normal mucosa samples taken before treatment and 6 tumor samples collected at week 3). From the non-responders we had 26 samples in total (9 tumor and 10 mucosa samples before treatment and 7 tumor samples at week 3 after a single dose of bevacizumab). Microarrays were run in two batches (15xxx versus 16xxx CEL file samples; indicated in the description field). Three samples (NJ 04/003 T1, RVS 09/002 M and NJ 04/003 W3) were put twice on the array (15897+16789; 15893+16790; 15898+16791) to verify and exclude batch effects. Please note that, due to these three technical repeats the total number of microarray CEL files is 50 (21 Responders, 26 Non-responders and 3 repeats).

Project description:The combination of bevacizumab with temozolomide and radiotherapy was shown to prolong progression-free survival in newly diagnosed glioblastoma patients, and this emphasizes the potential of bevacizumab as a glioma treatment. However, while bevacizumab effectively inhibits angiogenesis, it has also been reported to induce invasive proliferation. This study examined gene expression in glioma cells to investigate the mechanisms of bevacizumab-induced invasion. We made a human glioma U87ΔEGFR cell xenograft model by stereotactically injecting glioma cells into the brain of animals. We administered bevacizumab intraperitoneally three times per week. At 18 days after tumor implantation, the brains were removed for histopathology and mRNA was extracted. In vivo, bevacizumab treatment increased glioma cell invasion. qRT-PCR array analysis were perfomed.
