RESUMEN
OBJECTIVE: Retifanlimab is a humanized immunoglobulin G4 monoclonal antibody against programmed death 1 being investigated in several solid tumor types. We report final results from patients with recurrent microsatellite instability-high (MSI-H)/mismatch repair deficient (dMMR) endometrial cancer treated with retifanlimab in a POD1UM-101 expansion cohort. METHODS: Eligible patients (≥18 years; histologically proven/unresectable/recurrent, MSI-H/dMMR endometrial cancer; checkpoint inhibitor naive) received retifanlimab 500 mg intravenously every 4 weeks for ≤2 years. Primary endpoint was safety/tolerability. RESULTS: At data cutoff (May 17, 2023), 76 patients had received at least one retifanlimab dose. Median (range) age was 67 (49-88) years; 88.2% of patients had recurrent metastatic disease and 80.3% had visceral metastases. Seventy-five patients (98.7%) had received at least one prior systemic therapy. Median retifanlimab exposure was 10.0 (0.03-25.9) months; 23 patients completed treatment. 38 patients (50.0%) had grade ≥3 treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs), most commonly anemia (n = 10 [13.2%]). 63 patients (82.9%) had treatment-related AEs (TRAEs; grade ≥3, n = 14 [18.4%]); most common was fatigue (n = 14 [18.4%]). Two patients had TEAEs that led to death; no TRAEs were fatal. 39 patients had objective responses (51.3%; 95% CI, 39.6-63.0%); 19 patients (25.0%) had complete response and 20 (26.3%) had partial response. Median progression-free survival was 12.2 months; 30 patients (76.9%) had duration of response (DOR) ≥12 months. Median DOR was not reached after median follow-up time of 26.0 months. CONCLUSIONS: Retifanlimab was generally well tolerated and demonstrated encouraging anti-tumor activity in patients with pre-treated recurrent MSI-H/dMMR endometrial cancer.

OBJECTIVE: To describe the baseline symptom burden(SB) experienced by patients(pts) with recurrent ovarian cancer(ROC) prior and associations with progression free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS). METHODS: We analysed baseline SB reported by pts. with platinum resistant/refractory ROC (PRR-ROC) or potentiallyplatinum sensitive ROC receiving their third or greater line of chemotherapy (PPS-ROC≥3) enrolled in the Gynecologic Cancer InterGroup - Symptom Benefit Study (GCIG-SBS) using the Measure of Ovarian Symptoms and Treatment concerns (MOST). The severity of baseline symptoms was correlated with PFS and OS. RESULTS: The 948 pts. reported substantial baseline SB. Almost 80% reported mild to severe pain, and 75% abdominal symptoms. Shortness of breath was reported by 60% and 90% reported fatigue. About 50% reported moderate to severe anxiety, and 35% moderate to severe depression. Most (89%) reported 1 or more symptoms as moderate or severe, 59% scored 6 or more symptoms moderate or severe, and 46% scored 9 or more symptoms as moderate or severe. Higher SB was associated with significantly shortened PFS and OS; five symptoms had OS hazard ratios larger than 2 for both moderate and severe symptom cut-offs (trouble eating, vomiting, indigestion, loss of appetite, and nausea; p < 0.001). CONCLUSION: Pts with ROC reported high SB prior to starting palliative chemotherapy, similar among PRR-ROC and PPS-ROC≥3. High SB was strongly associated with early progression and death. SB should be actively managed and used to stratify patients in clinical trials. Clinical trials should measure and report symptom burden and the impact of treatment on symptom control.

OBJECTIVES: The modeled CA-125 elimination constant K (KELIM) is a pragmatic early marker of tumor chemosensitivity in ovarian cancer patients treated with neoadjuvant chemotherapy before interval surgery. The primary objective of this study was to assess the prognostic value of KELIM regarding the feasibility of complete surgery, and secondary objectives were to assess the prognostic value of KELIM for the risk of a platinum resistant relapse, progression free survival, and overall survival. METHODS: The study was based on a retrospective cohort of 284 patients treated for an advanced serous high grade ovarian cancer, International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics (FIGO) stages III-IV, with neoadjuvant chemotherapy, followed by interval surgery, in a comprehensive cancer center. CA-125 concentrations at baseline and during neoadjuvant chemotherapy were collected. The KELIM predictive value regarding the tumor radiological response rate, likelihood of complete surgery, risk of subsequent platinum resistant relapse, progression free survival, and overall survival were assessed with univariate and multivariate tests. RESULTS: In 232 patients, KELIM was an independent and major predictor of the probability of complete surgery and survival. The final logistic regression model, including KELIM (odds ratio (OR) 0.36, 95% confidence interval (CI)0.16 to 0.73, p=0.006) and complete surgery (no vs yes, OR 0.29, 95% CI 0.15 to 0.53, p<0.001), highlighted the complementary impact of chemosensitivity and surgical outcome relative to the complete surgery. In the multivariate analysis, KELIM and complete surgery were significantly associated with a lower risk of early relapse. In the case of an unfavorable KELIM, when surgical efforts allowed complete cytoreduction, median overall survival was similar to that reported in the case of a favorable KELIM (46.3 months (range 34.6-60.3) vs 46.5 months (range 40.6-68.7), respectively). CONCLUSION: Primary tumor chemosensitivity, assessed by the modeled CA-125 KELIM, calculated during neoadjuvant chemotherapy, is a major parameter to consider for decision making regarding interval surgery. Complementary to the RECIST score and laparoscopy, this non-invasive tool, available online, helps tailor the interval surgery strategy according to patient tumor chemosensitivity.

OBJECTIVE: In the PAOLA-1/ENGOT-ov25 trial (NCT02477644), adding maintenance olaparib to bevacizumab provided a substantial progression-free survival benefit in patients with newly diagnosed advanced ovarian cancer and homologous recombination deficiency (HRD)-positive tumors, irrespective of clinical risk. Subsequently, a clinically meaningful improvement in overall survival was reported with olaparib plus bevacizumab in the HRD-positive subgroup. We report updated progression-free survival and overall survival by clinical risk and HRD status. METHODS: Patients in clinical response after first-line platinum-based chemotherapy plus bevacizumab received maintenance olaparib (up to 24 months) plus bevacizumab (up to 15 months in total) or placebo plus bevacizumab. This post hoc analysis evaluated 5-year progression-free survival and mature overall survival in patients classified by clinical risk and HRD status. RESULTS: Of 806 randomized patients, 74% were higher-risk and 26% were lower-risk. In higher-risk HRD-positive patients, the hazard ratio (HR) for progression-free survival was 0.46 (95% confidence interval (95% CI) 0.34 to 0.61), with 5-year progression-free survival of 35% with olaparib plus bevacizumab versus 15% with bevacizumab alone; and the HR for overall survival was 0.70 (95% CI 0.50 to 1.00), with 5-year overall survival of 55% versus 42%, respectively. In lower-risk HRD-positive patients, the HR for progression-free survival was 0.26 (95% CI 0.15 to 0.45), with 5-year progression-free survival of 72% with olaparib plus bevacizumab versus 28% with bevacizumab alone; and the HR for overall survival was 0.31 (95% CI 0.14 to 0.66), with 5-year overall survival of 88% versus 61%, respectively. No benefit was seen in HRD-negative patients regardless of clinical risk. CONCLUSION: This post hoc analysis indicates that in patients with newly diagnosed advanced HRD-positive ovarian cancer, maintenance olaparib plus bevacizumab should not be limited to those considered at higher risk of disease progression. Five-year progression-free survival rates support long-term remission and suggest an increased potential for cure with particular benefit suggested in lower-risk HRD-positive patients.

BACKGROUND: Early access program (formerly cohort Temporary Authorization for Use) was granted for trastuzumab deruxtecan (T-DXd) in France based on DESTINY-Breast01 trial which demonstrated its efficacy and safety in HER2-positive metastatic/unresectable breast cancer after ≥2 anti-HER2-based regimens received at metastatic stage. METHODS: This multicenter real-world early access program included HER2-positive metastatic/unresectable breast patients pretreated with at least two lines of anti-HER2 regimens who received T-DXd 5.4 mg/kg intravenously in monotherapy every 3 weeks. RESULTS: Four hundred and fifty-nine patients (median age, 58 years; hormone receptor-positive, 67%; brain metastases, 28.1%) received T-DXd. Before inclusion, 81.7% of patients had radiation therapy and 76.5% had undergone surgery. Median number of prior metastatic treatment lines was four (range, 2-22); 99.8% patients had received trastuzumab, 94.8% trastuzumab emtansine and 79.3% pertuzumab. Follow-up was performed from September 30, 2020 to March 30, 2021; when the early access program stopped, the median duration of T-DXd treatment was 3.4 (range, 0-7.8) months. In 160 patients with available tumor assessment, objective response rate was 56.7% and 12.1% had progression. In 57 patients with available brain tumor assessment, complete or partial intracranial response was reported for 35.7% patients and 5.4% had progression. A total of 17 (3.7%) patients with interstitial lung disease (ILD) was reported with no cases of ILD-related death. CONCLUSIONS: In this early access program in patients with heavily pretreated HER2-positive metastatic/unresectable breast cancer, T-DXd had antitumor activity with a similar response to that reported in previous clinical studies. T-DXd was well tolerated and no new safety signals were observed.

This open-label, non-comparative, 2:1 randomized, phase II trial (NCT03275506) in women with stage IIIC/IV high-grade serous carcinoma (HGSC) for whom upfront complete resection was unachievable assessed whether adding pembrolizumab (200 mg every 3 weeks) to standard-of-care carboplatin plus paclitaxel yielded a complete resection rate (CRR) of at least 50%. Postoperatively patients continued assigned treatment for a maximum of 2 years. Postoperative bevacizumab was optional. The primary endpoint was independently assessed CRR at interval debulking surgery. Secondary endpoints were Completeness of Cytoreduction Index (CCI) and peritoneal cancer index (PCI) scores, objective and best response rates, progression-free survival, overall survival, safety, postoperative morbidity, and pathological complete response. The CRR in 61 pembrolizumab-treated patients was 74% (one-sided 95% CI = 63%), exceeding the prespecified ≥50% threshold and meeting the primary objective. The CRR without pembrolizumab was 70% (one-sided 95% CI = 54%). In the remaining patients CCI scores were ≥3 in 27% of the standard-of-care group and 18% of the investigational group and CC1 in 3% of the investigational group. PCI score decreased by a mean of 9.6 in the standard-of-care group and 10.2 in the investigational group. Objective response rates were 60% and 72%, respectively, and best overall response rates were 83% and 90%, respectively. Progression-free survival was similar with the two regimens (median 20.8 versus 19.4 months in the standard-of-care versus investigational arms, respectively) but overall survival favored pembrolizumab-containing therapy (median 35.3 versus 49.8 months, respectively). The most common grade ≥3 adverse events with pembrolizumab-containing therapy were anemia during neoadjuvant therapy and infection/fever postoperatively. Pembrolizumab was discontinued prematurely because of adverse events in 23% of pembrolizumab-treated patients. Combining pembrolizumab with neoadjuvant chemotherapy is feasible for HGSC considered not completely resectable; observed activity in some subgroups justifies further evaluation to improve understanding of the role of immunotherapy in HGSC.
