ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:
Disitamab Vedotin is a novel antibody-drug conjugate (ADC) drug targeting HER2, which has shown a potential synergistic effect between Disitamab Vedotin and immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs). Therefore, we plan to conduct a retrospective real-world study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Disitamab Vedotin monotherapy or combined with ICIs in the treatment of advanced or metastatic solid tumors.METHODS:
This retrospective study involved patients with locally advanced or metastatic solid tumors who were treated with Disitamab Vedotin monotherapy or combined with ICIs at West China Hospital of Sichuan University from July 2019 to June 2023. The observation items included progression-free survival (PFS), overall survival (OS), objective response rate (ORR), disease control rate (DCR), and treatment-related adverse events (TRAEs).RESULTS:
This study included 49 patients, out of which 34 patients were treated with Disitamab Vedotin plus ICIs and 15 patients received Disitamab Vedotin alone. In all patients, the median PFS was 10 months. The 6-month and 1-year OS rates were 91.1% and 82.3%, respectively. Eighteen (36.7%) patients achieved a partial response, and sixteen (32.7%) patients had stable disease. The combination therapy of Disitamab Vedotin plus ICIs showed a higher ORR (44.1% vs. 20.0%) and a longer median PFS (14 vs. 8 months) compared to Disitamab Vedotin alone. The median PFS for patients expressed with HER2 2+/3+ was 10 months and was not reached for patients expressed with HER2 0/1+. Grade 3-4 TRAEs occurred in 14.7% of patients who received the combination treatment and in 26.7% of patients who received Disitamab Vedotin alone.CONCLUSIONS:
Our study showed that Disitamab-Vedotin-based treatment, alone or in combination with ICIs, exerted considerable prognosis and good tolerance in patients with locally advanced or metastatic solid tumors, regardless of the HER2 expression levels. Whether combination therapy with ICIs provides greater therapeutic benefits compared to monotherapy needs to be further explored through randomized controlled trials.Key words
