Project description:BackgroundPatients with colorectal carcinoma and high-grade microsatellite instability (MSI-H) or deficiency in mismatch repair (dMMR) exceptionally respond to immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs). ICIs are more active in treatment-naïve patients than in patients with refractory MSI-H/dMMR metastatic colorectal cancer and even more active in patients with locally advanced tumors.Material and methodsA 33-year-old male patient with Lynch syndrome was diagnosed with a locally advanced rectal cancer and refused standard neoadjuvant chemoradiation because of the potential harm of sexual dysfunction. MMR and microsatellite instability status were analyzed by immunohistochemistry and fragment length polymerase chain reaction followed by capillary electrophoresis.ResultsAfter MSI-H/dMMR was confirmed, the patient was treated with ICIs (1 mg/kg ipilimumab at day 1 and 3 mg/kg nivolumab at day 1 and 15). A complete clinical response was documented at day 21 after start of treatment. The patient underwent a total mesorectal excision at day 30. In the extirpated tissue, a complete pathological response was confirmed.ConclusionIn MSI-H/dMMR locally advanced rectal cancer short-course ICI treatment is highly effective and may be discussed in patients with dMMR locally advanced rectal cancer.Key pointsImmune checkpoint inhibitors are more active in treatment-naïve patients than in patients with refractory high-grade microsatellite instability (MSI-H)/deficiency in mismatch repair (dMMR) colorectal cancer. Standard neoadjuvant chemoradiation is less effective in MSI-H/dMMR rectal cancer patients than in patients with proficient mismatch repair. A young patient with Lynch syndrome and MSI-H/dMMR locally advanced rectal cancer refused chemoradiation in order to preserve his fertility. After neoadjuvant treatment with one dose of ipilimumab and two doses of nivolumab a complete clinical and pathological response was documented. Clinical trials are needed to first establish neoadjuvant treatment with immune checkpoint inhibitors in patients with locally advanced MSI-H/dMMR rectal cancer and thereafter to evaluate organ-preservation strategies.

Project description:KEYNOTE-177 is currently the only randomized controlled phase III clinical trial evaluating the efficacy and safety of pembrolizumab versus standard chemotherapy combined with targeted first-line therapy for dMMR/MSI-H metastatic colorectal cancer. The study was conducted at 192 centers in 23 countries and enrolled a total of 307 subjects. The results of the study showed that the median PFS of pembrolizumab was 16.5 months, which was double the 8.2 months in the chemotherapy group (HR 0.60; 95% CI: 0.45-0.80; P = 0.0002). In addition, the ORR was 45.1% in the pembrolizumab group and 33.1% in the chemotherapy group, and a higher percentage of patients achieving a complete remission (CR) with pembrolizumab than in the chemotherapy group (13.1% vs. 3.9%). The U.S. FDA approved pembrolizumab in June 2020 for the first-line treatment of MSI-H/dMMR metastatic colorectal cancer. The results of the KEYNOTE-177 study showed that 29% of patients with dMMR/MSI-H metastatic colorectal cancer experienced direct disease progression (PD) after first-line pembrolizumab monotherapy. This may suggest that some dMMR/MSI-H patients have primary resistance to anti-PD-1 monotherapy. In the first-line treatment cohort of the CheckMate 142 study using nivolumab combined with ipilimumab, the proportion of patients with direct PD was 13%, suggesting that the combination of PD-1 inhibitors and anti-CTLA-4 mAb may have help overcome this primary resistance. In addition, in the second-line and above cohort of the CheckMate142 study, 12% of patients receiving nivolumab in combination with ipilimumab experienced PD directly, compared with 26% of patients receiving nivolumab alone. A study published on 《The Lancet Oncolog》 on the efficacy and safety of ipilimumab monotherapy and ipilimumab combined with anti-PD-1 monoclonal antibody in patients with anti-PD-1 monoclonal antibody-resistant melanoma Retrospective study. The study included 355 patients with unresectable metastatic stage III or IV melanoma who received ipilimumab monotherapy after failure of anti-PD-(L)1 monoclonal antibody (n=162), or Ipilimumab combined with anti-PD-1 therapy (n=193). The ORR was 31% in the combination arm, significantly higher than the 13% in the ipilimumab monotherapy arm. In addition, the median OS and PFS of the combination therapy group were 20.4 months and 3.0 months, respectively, which were also significantly higher than those of the single-agent group of 8.8 months and 2.6 months. The aim of this study was to evaluate the objective response rate (ORR) of Cadonilimab, a bispecific anti-PD-1/CTLA-4 antibody, for PD-1/PD-L1 blockade-refractory, microsatellite instability-high (MSI-H) or mismatch repair-deficient (dMMR), advanced colorectal cancer.

Project description:BackgroundNo meta-analysis has assessed the pooled frequencies of adverse events (AEs) induced by concomitant nivolumab plus ipilimumab regimen for anticancer-medications-naïve malignancies. Furthermore, no meta-analysis has compared detailed safety profiles between four doses of nivolumab 3 mg/kg plus ipilimumab 1 mg/kg every 3 weeks (N3I1) and four doses of nivolumab 1 mg/kg plus ipilimumab 3 mg/kg every 3 weeks (N1I3). Objectives of this study was estimating AE frequencies, and comparison of AE frequencies between N3I1 and N1I3 regimens.MethodsFour major electronic databases were searched; both interventional and observational studies were included. All primary cancer types were permitted. Patients should not have been previously treated with any anti-cancer medications. The frequency of AEs was pooled using a random-model meta-analysis using the generic inverse variance method. Protocol registration: UMIN000044090.ResultsForty articles representing 48 populations with 4,677 patients were included in the study. The pooled frequencies for key indicators were as follows: any AE, 81.3% (95% confidence interval (CI) 77.5-85.1); grade 3 or higher AE, 40.6% (95% CI: 35.7-45.5); serious AE, 32.7% (95% CI: 22.4-43.1); AE leading to discontinuation, 28.3% (95% CI: 23.7-32.8); and treatment-related death, 0.7% (95% CI: 0.4-1.1). AEs with the highest incidence were fatigue (27.9%, 95% CI: 22.6-33.3), followed by diarrhea (26.0%, 95% CI: 21.5-30.5), pruritus (24.6%, 95% CI: 20.3-28.8), rash (24.0% 95% CI: 19.3-28.7), and elevated aspartate aminotransferase (21.2%, 95% CI: 14.9-27.5). Subgroup analyses demonstrated that N3I1, compared to N1I3, less frequently induced any AE (N1I3 95.7%, N3I1 84.5%, p = 0.003), grade 3 or higher AE (N1I3 64.3%, N3I1 35.7%, p < 0.001), and serious AE (N1I3 61.4%, N3I1 47.8%, p = 0.004).ConclusionsApproximately 40% of patients had grade 3 or higher AE. The N3I1 regimen was substantiated to trigger fewer any AEs, high grade AEs, and serious AE than the N1I3 regimen.
