Project description:Background: The efficacy of FOLFIRI plus an antiangiogenesis biologic agent as 2nd line therapy for metastatic colorectal adenocarcinoma is limited. TAS-102 is a novel oral antimetabolite with a distinct mechanism of action from fluoropyrimidines. We evaluated the antitumor efficacy of TAS-102, irinotecan and bevacizumab in patients with pre-treated, advanced colorectal adenocarcinoma in a multicenter, phase II, single-arm study. Methods: Patients with advanced colorectal adenocarcinoma who had progressed after oxaliplatin and fluoropyrimidine and were eligible for treatment with bevacizumab were treated with irinotecan, bevacizumab, and TAS-102 in 28-day cycles. The primary endpoint was progression-free survival (PFS). Results: We enrolled 35 evaluable patients. The study was positive. The median PFS was 7.9 (90% CI 6.2-11.8) months (vs. 6 months in historical control, p=0.018). The median overall survival was 16.5 (90% CI 9.8-17.5) months. Sixty-seven percent of patients experienced grade 3 or higher treatment-related adverse events. The most common toxicities were hematological (neutropenia) and gastrointestinal (diarrhea, nausea, and vomiting). Conclusions: Irinotecan, TAS-102 and bevacizumab is an active 2nd line therapy for patients with metastatic colorectal adenocarcinoma. Neutropenia is common and can affect dose density/intensity mandating use of G-CSF. A randomized study versus standard of care therapy is warranted.

Project description:Background Trifluridine, a thymidine-based chemotherapeutic, has limited bioavailability after clinical administration as it is rapidly degraded via thymidine phosphorylase. An oral combination tablet combines trifluridine with a potent thymidine phosphorylase inhibitor, tipiracil hydrochloride. This study's objective was to evaluate whether trifluridine/tipiracil (TAS-102) administration increases trifluridine exposure vs trifluridine alone. Methods This open-label pharmacokinetic study randomly assigned patients with advanced solid tumors into two groups. On the morning of day 1, one group received a single 35 mg/m2 dose of trifluridine/tipiracil and the other group received a single 35-mg/m2 dose of trifluridine. Both groups received trifluridine/tipiracil 35 mg/m2 on the evening of day 1, then twice daily on days 2-5 and 8-12 in a 28-day cycle. Results Twenty patients received an initial one-time dose of trifluridine alone and 19 other patients received an initial dose of trifluridine/tipiracil. Trifluridine area under the curve (AUC0-last) and maximum observed plasma concentrations (Cmax) were approximately 37- and 22-fold higher, respectively, with trifluridine/tipiracil vs trifluridine alone. Plasma concentrations of the major metabolite of trifluridine were lower following the administration of trifluridine/tipiracil vs trifluridine alone. Conclusion Tipiracil administered in combination with trifluridine significantly increased exposure to trifluridine compared with trifluridine alone.

Project description:BACKGROUND:In the phase III RECOURSE trial, trifluridine/tipiracil (TAS-102) extended overall survival (OS) and progression-free survival (PFS) with an acceptable toxicity profile in patients with metastatic colorectal cancer refractory or intolerant to standard therapies. The present analysis investigated the efficacy and safety of trifluridine/tipiracil in RECOURSE subgroups. METHODS:Primary and key secondary end-points were evaluated using a Cox proportional hazards model in prespecified subgroups, including geographical subregion (United States of America [USA], European Union [EU], Japan), age (<65 years, ?65 years) and v-Ki-ras2 Kirsten rat sarcoma 2 viral oncogene homologue (KRAS) status (wild type, mutant). Safety and tolerability were reported with descriptive statistics. RESULTS:Eight-hundred patients were enrolled: USA, n = 99; EU, n = 403; Japan, n = 266. Patients aged ?65 years and those with mutant KRAS tumours comprised 44% and 51% of all patients in the subregions, respectively. Final OS analysis (including 89% of events, compared with 72% in the initial analysis) confirmed the survival benefit associated with trifluridine/tipiracil, with a hazard ratio (HR) of 0.69 (95% confidence interval [CI] 0.59-0.81; P = 0.0001). Median OS in the three regions was 6.5-7.8 months in the trifluridine/tipiracil arm and 4.3-6.7 months in the placebo arm (USA: HR 0.56; 95% CI 0.34-0.94; P = 0.0277; EU: HR 0.62; 95% CI 0.48-0.80; P = 0.0002; Japan: HR 0.75; 95% CI 0.57-1.00; P = 0.0470). Median PFS was 2.0-2.8 months for trifluridine/tipiracil and 1.7-1.8 months for placebo; HRs favoured trifluridine/tipiracil in all regions. Similar clinical benefits of trifluridine/tipiracil were observed in elderly patients and in those with mutant KRAS tumours. There were no marked differences among subregions in terms of safety and tolerability. CONCLUSIONS:Trifluridine/tipiracil was effective in all subgroups, regardless of age, geographical origin or KRAS status. This trial is registered with ClinicalTrials.gov: NCT01607957.

Project description:BackgroundExtrahepatic disease progression limits clinical efficacy of Yttrium-90 (90Y) radioembolization (TARE) for patients with chemotherapy-refractory metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC). Trifluridine and tipiracil (TAS-102) has overall survival benefit for patients with refractory mCRC and may be a radiosensitizer.MethodsSequential lobar TARE using 90Y resin microspheres in combination with TAS-102 in 28-day cycles were used to treat adult patients with bilobar liver-dominant chemo-refractory mCRC according to 3 + 3 dose escalation design with a 12-patient dose expansion cohort. Study objectives were to establish safety and determine maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of TAS-102 in combination with TARE.ResultsA total of 21 patients (14 women, 7 men) with median age of 60 years were enrolled. No dose limiting toxicities were observed. Treatment related severe adverse events included cytopenias (10 patients, 48%) and radioembolization-induced liver disease (2 patients, 10%). Disease control rate in the liver lobes treated with TARE was 100%. Best observed radiographic responses were partial response for 4 patients (19%) and stable disease for 12 patients (57%).ConclusionsThe combination of TAS-102 and TARE for patients with liver-dominant mCRC is safe and consistently achieves disease control within the liver.Trial registrationClinicalTrials.gov identifier NCT02602327 (first posted 11/11/2015).

Project description:BackgroundTrifluridine/tipiracil (FTD/TPI) is an oral antimetabolite agent comprised of trifluridine, a thymidine-based nucleoside analogue that inhibits cell proliferation following its incorporation into DNA, and tipiracil that helps maintain the blood concentration of trifluridine by inhibiting the enzyme thymidine phosphorylase which inactivates trifluridine. It is approved as a third-line treatment option for patients with metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC) and is administered at 35 mg/m2 two times daily from day 1 to 5 and from day 8 to 12 every 28 days. The aim of this investigator-initiated retrospective study (RETRO-TAS; NCT04965870) was to document real-world data on the clinical efficacy of FTD/TPI in patients with chemorefractory mCRC.MethodsThe clinical characteristics of patients with mCRC treated with FTD/TPI in 8 Cancer Centres were collected to assess physician's choice in the third or beyond line of treatment as well as the duration of treatment, dose modification, and toxicity. In addition, other important prognostic features related to mCRC such as molecular profile, performance status (PS), and primary site were analyzed. Statistical analysis for progression-free survival (PFS), overall survival (OS), 6-/8-month PFS rate and disease control rate (DCR) along with Cox regression model, Kaplan-Meier curves, and log-rank tests were carried out by using Stata/MP 16.0 for Windows.ResultsFrom October 2018 to October 2021, a total of 200 patients with mCRC and a median age of 67.0 (IQR 58.0, 75.0) years were treated with FTD/TPI. Τhe median follow-up time was 14 months (IQR 7, 23), 158 PDs and 106 deaths were reported at the time of this analysis. Of all the patients, 58% were males and 58% had mCRC at diagnosis. The molecular analysis identified mutations in KRAS (52%), NRAS (5%), HER2 (3.5%), BRAF (3.5%), and MSI (9%). Previous treatments included radical surgery in 51.5% and adjuvant chemotherapy in 39.5% of patients. FTD/TPI was administered in the third- (70.5%), fourth- (17.0%), or fifth-line (12.5%) treatment setting. Serious adverse events related to FTD/TPI included neutropenia (2%), anaemia (1%), thrombocytopenia (0.5%), diarrhoea (0.5%), nausea (0.5%), and fatigue (4%). A reduction of FTD/TPI dose, delay of next cycle initiation, and shorter duration were reported in 25%, 31%, and 14.5% of patients, respectively. Of all the patients 71.5% received FTD/TPI as monotherapy, 24.5% in combination with bevacizumab, and 4.0% with an anti-EGFR agent. The median FTD/TPI treatment duration was 119.5 days and 81% of patients discontinued treatment due to progressive disease. The DCR recorded by investigators' assessment was 45.5%. The median PFS was 4.8 and the median OS was 11.4 months. The 6- and the 8-month PFS rate was 41.4% and 31.5%, respectively. In the multivariate analysis, PS > 1 and presence of liver and lung metastasis were adversely associated with PFS and OS whereas mutational status and tumor sidedness were not.ConclusionsRETRO-TAS is a real-world observational study that confirms and adds on the findings of the pivotal RECOURSE Phase III study in relation to the efficacy of FTD/TPI in the third-line setting and in all subgroups of patients regardless of mutational status and sidedness.

Project description:PurposeThe current study aimed to determine the efficacy of trifluridine/tipiracil for elderly patients with advanced colorectal cancer.MethodsThis single-arm, open-label, multicenter, phase II study included elderly patients aged 65 years or more who had fluoropyrimidine-refractory advanced colorectal cancer and received trifluridine/tipiracil (70 mg/m2, days 1-5 and 8-12, every 4 weeks). The primary endpoint was progression-free survival (PFS), while secondary endpoints included overall survival (OS), overall response rate (ORR), toxicities, association between efficacy and geriatric assessment scores, and association between toxicity and plasma drug concentrations.ResultsA total of 30 patients with a mean age of 73 years were enrolled. Median PFS was 2.3 months (95% confidence interval, 1.9-4.3 months), while median OS was 5.7 months (95% confidence interval, 3.7-8.9 months). Patients had an ORR of 0%, with 57% having stable disease. Grade 4 neutropenia was observed in 13% of the patients. Patients with a higher G8 score (15 or more) showed longer PFS than those with a lower G8 score (median 4.6 vs. 2.0 months; p = 0.047). Moreover, patients with grade 3 or 4 neutropenia showed higher maximum trifluridine concentrations than those with grade 1 or 2 neutropenia (mean 2945 vs. 2107 ng/mL; p = 0.036).DiscussionThe current phase II trial demonstrated that trifluridine/tipiracil was an effective and well-tolerated option for elderly patients with advanced colorectal cancer. Moreover, geriatric assessment tools and/or plasma drug concentration monitoring might be helpful in predicting the efficacy and toxicities in elderly patients receiving this drug.Trial registration numberUMIN000017589, 15/May/2015 (The University Hospital Medical Information Network).
