RESUMO
BACKGROUND: ADI-PEG 20 is a pegylated form of the arginine-depleting enzyme arginine deiminase. Normal cells synthesize arginine with the enzyme argininosuccinate synthetase (ASS1); ADI-PEG 20 selectively targets malignant cells, which lack ASS1. METHODS: A single-arm, nonrandomized, open-label, phase 1/1B, standard 3 + 3 dose escalation with an expansion cohort of 9 patients at the recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D) was conducted. Patients who had metastatic pancreatic cancer, up to 1 line of prior treatment (the dose-escalation cohort) or no prior treatment (the expansion cohort), and an Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance status of 0 to 1 were included. Patients received both gemcitabine (1000 mg/m2 ) and nab-paclitaxel (125 mg/m2 ) for 3 of 4 weeks and intramuscular ADI-PEG 20 at 18 mg/m2 weekly (cohort 1) or at 36 mg/m2 weekly (cohort 2 and the expansion cohort).The primary endpoint was to determine the maximum tolerated dose and RP2D of ADI-PEG 20 in combination with nab-paclitaxel and gemcitabine. RESULTS: Eighteen patients were enrolled. No dose-limiting toxicities (DLTs) were observed in cohort 1; cohort 2 was expanded to 6 patients because of 1 DLT occurrence (a grade 3 elevation in bilirubin, aspartate aminotransferase, and alanine aminotransferase). The most frequent adverse events (AEs) of any grade were neutropenia, thrombocytopenia, leukopenia, anemia, peripheral neuropathy, and fatigue; all 18 patients experienced grade 3/4 AEs. The most frequent grade 3/4 toxicities, regardless of the relation with any drugs, included neutropenia (12 patients or 67%), leukopenia (10 patients or 56%), anemia (8 patients or 44%), and lymphopenia (6 patients or 33%). The RP2D for ADI-PEG 20 was 36 mg/m2 weekly in combination with standard-dose gemcitabine and nab-paclitaxel. The overall response rate among patients treated at the RP2D in the first-line setting was 45.5% (5 of 11).The median progression-free survival time for these patients treated at the RP2D was 6.1 months (95% confidence interval, 5.3-11.2 months), and the median overall survival time was 11.3 months (95% confidence interval, 6.7 months to not reached). CONCLUSIONS: ADI-PEG 20 was well tolerated in combination with gemcitabine and nab-paclitaxel. Activity was observed in previously treated and untreated patients with advanced pancreatic cancer and in patients with ASS1-deficient and -proficient tumors.

LESSONS LEARNED: Trebananib leveraging anti-angiogenic mechanism that is distinct from the classic sorafenib anti-vascular endothelial growth factor inhibition did not demonstrate improved progression-free survival at 4 months in patients with advanced hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC).In support of previously reported high Ang-2 levels' association with poor outcome in HCC for patients, trebananib treatment with lower baseline Ang-2 at study entry was associated with improved overall survival to 22 months and may suggest future studies to be performed within the context of low baseline Ang-2. BACKGROUND: Ang-1 and Ang-2 are angiopoietins thought to promote neovascularization via activation of the Tie-2 angiopoietin receptor. Trebananib sequesters Ang-1 and Ang-2, preventing interaction with the Tie-2 receptor. Trebananib plus sorafenib combination has acceptable toxicity. Elevated Ang-2 levels are associated with poor prognosis in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). METHODS: Patients with HCC, Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group ≤2, and Childs-Pugh A received IV trebananib at 10 mg/kg or 15 mg/kg weekly plus sorafenib 400 mg orally twice daily. The study was planned for ≥78% progression-free survival (PFS) rate at 4 months relative to 62% for sorafenib historical control (power = 80% α = 0.20). Secondary endpoints included safety, tolerability, overall survival (OS), and multiple biomarkers, including serum Ang-2. RESULTS: Thirty patients were enrolled sequentially in each of the two nonrandomized cohorts. Demographics were comparable between the two arms and the historical controls. PFS rates at 4 months were 57% and 54% on the 10 mg/kg and 15 mg/kg trebananib cohorts, respectively. Median OS was 17 and 11 months, respectively. Grade 3 and above events noted in ≥10% of patients included fatigue, hypertension, diarrhea, liver failure, palmar-plantar erythrodysesthesia syndrome, dyspnea, and hypophosphatemia. One death was due to hepatic failure. Serum Ang-2 dichotomized at the median was associated with improved OS in both cohorts. CONCLUSION: There was no improvement in PFS rate at 4 months in either cohort, when compared with sorafenib historical control.

BACKGROUND: Neuroendocrine tumor (NET) cell lines frequently express both insulin-like growth factor (IGF) ligand and the cognate IGF-1 receptor (IGF-1R) and, as such, potentially depend on the activation of IGF-1R and its downstream effectors for growth and survival. Preclinical studies suggest that somatostatin analogs and mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) inhibitors exhibit antitumor activity against NETs through inhibition of IGF-1-dependent signaling, suggesting that IGF-1R inhibition may be a promising therapeutic approach to NETs. Therefore, the authors of this report evaluated the safety and efficacy of MK-0646, a fully human monoclonal antibody (MoAb) that binds to the IGF-1R, as monotherapy in patients with metastatic, well-differentiated NETs. METHODS: A phase 2 study was performed in which patients received intravenous MK-0646 10 mg/kg once weekly over 1 hour. Archived pretreatment tumor tissue was obtained and genotyped for v-Ki-ras2 Kirsten rat sarcoma viral oncogene homolog (KRAS), phosphatidylinositol-3-kinase, catalytic, alpha polypeptide (PIK3CA); and v-raf murine sarcoma viral oncogene homolog B1 (BRAF) mutations, and immunohistochemistry was performed to measure the expression IGF-1R. RESULTS: Twenty-five patients received treatment (40% women; median age, 61 years; age range, 37-83 years), including 15 patients with carcinoid tumors and 10 patients with pancreatic NETs. No partial or complete responses were observed. The median progression-free survival was 4.2 months in the pancreatic NET cohort (range, 0.7-6.7 months) and 2.7 months in the carcinoid cohort (range, 2-3 months). Serious adverse events that were potentially related to MK-0646 included grade 3/4 hyperglycemia in 8 of 25 patients (32%), grade 2 hypersensitivity reaction in 1 of 24 patients (4%), and grade 3 lipase elevation in 1 of 25 patients (4%). CONCLUSIONS: Despite a compelling preclinical rationale, MK-0646 was inactive as a single agent in well-differentiated NETs. Further studies of MK-0646 as a monotherapy in unselected NETs are unwarranted.

BACKGROUND: S-1 is a novel oral agent combining the 5-fluorouracil (FU) prodrug tegafur with gimeracil and oteracil, which inhibit 5-FU degradation by dihydropyrimidine dehydrogenase and phosphorylation within the gastrointestinal tract, respectively. The study was designed to identify the maximum tolerable dose and the dose-limiting toxicities of two schedules of S-1 combined with oxaliplatin and bevacizumab, in advanced solid tumor patients. METHODS: Schedule A: S-1 was administered orally at 20 mg/m(2) twice daily for 14 consecutive days, escalated by 5 mg/m(2), with fixed-dose intravenous bevacizumab 7.5 mg/kg and oxaliplatin 130 mg/m(2) on day 1 of each 3-week cycle. Schedule B: S-1 was administered at 25 mg/m(2) twice daily for 7 consecutive days, escalated by 5 mg/m(2), with fixed-dose intravenous bevacizumab 5 mg/kg and oxaliplatin 85 mg/m(2) on day 1 of each 2-week cycle. RESULTS: The maximum tolerated dose and recommended phase II dose of S-1 was 25 mg/m(2) twice daily for 14 days for schedule A and 35 mg/m(2) twice daily for 7 days for schedule B. The most common dose-limiting toxicities were grade 3 diarrhea. Both regimens were well tolerated. No pharmacokinetic interactions between oxaliplatin and S-1 components were observed. CONCLUSIONS: S-1, oxaliplatin and bevacizumab can be administered with acceptable safety and tolerability and without evidence of pharmacokinetic interactions.

PURPOSE: Mutations in the RAS/RAF/MEK/ERK signaling pathway are commonly found in biliary tract cancer (BTC). Binimetinib, a selective inhibitor of MEK1/2, has single-agent activity. Preclinical data support binimetinib combination with chemotherapy, when given in an interrupted dosing schedule.Patients and Methods: A phase I/II trial evaluated binimetinib in combination with gemcitabine and cisplatin in patients with untreated advanced BTC. The primary endpoints were to determine the MTD (phase I), and PFS 6 and RR (phase II). Tumor tissue for targeted gene sequencing and blood samples for peripheral blood pERK expression were evaluated. Patients received oral binimetinib twice daily with gemcitabine and cisplatin on day 8 and 15 of a 21-day cycle. Binimetinib was held for 2 days prior to and on day of each chemotherapy treatment. RESULTS: Twelve patients enrolled in the phase I showed the MTD of binimetinib at 45 mg orally twice daily with gemcitabine 800 and cisplatin 20 mg/m2. Twenty-nine patients were treated in the phase II. Six patients treated at MTD in phase I were evaluable as part of phase II. PFS 6 months was 54% and RR was 36%. Median overall survival was 13.3 months (95% CI, 9.8-16.5). MSK-IMPACT 410-gene panel showed aberrations in the RAS-RAF-MEK-ERK pathway and mutations in PIK3CA, AKT2, PIK3CG, BRAF, and MAP3K1 in responding patients. CONCLUSIONS: Binimetinib with gemcitabine and cisplatin did not show an improvement in PFS 6 and RR. Molecular profiling may help select patients who may benefit from this triplet therapy, which is not planned at this time.

PURPOSE: Arginine depletion interferes with pyrimidine metabolism as well as DNA damage repair pathways. Preclinical data indicates that pairing pegylated arginine deiminase (ADI-PEG 20) with fluoropyrimidines or platinum enhances cytotoxicity in vitro and in vivo in arginine auxotrophs. METHODS: This is a single-center, open-label, phase 1 trial of ADI-PEG 20 and modified FOLFOX6 (mFOLFOX6) in treatment-refractory hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and other advanced gastrointestinal tumors. A 3 + 3 dose escalation design was employed to assess safety, tolerability, and determine the recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D) of ADI-PEG 20. A RP2D expansion cohort for patients with HCC was employed to define the objective response rate (ORR). Secondary objectives were to estimate progression-free survival (PFS), overall survival (OS), and to explore pharmacodynamics and immunogenicity. Eligible patients were treated with mFOLFOX6 intravenously biweekly at standard doses and ADI-PEG-20 intramuscularly weekly at 18 (Cohort 1) or 36 mg/m2 (Cohort 2 and RP2D expansion). RESULTS: Twenty-seven patients enrolled-23 with advanced HCC and 4 with other gastrointestinal tumors. No dose-limiting toxicities were observed in cohort 1 or 2. The RP2D for ADI-PEG 20 was 36 mg/m2 weekly with mFOLFOX6. The most common any grade adverse events (AEs) were thrombocytopenia, neutropenia, leukopenia, anemia, and fatigue. Among the 23 HCC patients, the most frequent treatment-related Grade ≥ 3 AEs were neutropenia (47.8%), thrombocytopenia (34.7%), leukopenia (21.7%), anemia (21.7%), and lymphopenia (17.4%). The ORR for this group was 21% (95% CI 7.5-43.7). Median PFS and OS were 7.3 and 14.5 months, respectively. Arginine levels were depleted with therapy despite the emergence of low levels of anti-ADI-PEG 20 antibodies. Arginine depletion at 4 and 8 weeks and archival tumoral argininosuccinate synthetase-1 levels did not correlate with response. CONCLUSIONS: Concurrent mFOLFOX6 plus ADI-PEG-20 intramuscularly at 36 mg/m2 weekly shows an acceptable safety profile and favorable efficacy compared to historic controls. Further evaluation of this combination is warranted in advanced HCC patients.

PURPOSE: BRCA-associated cancers have increased sensitivity to poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase inhibitors (PARPis). This single arm, non-randomised, multicentre phase II trial evaluated the response rate of veliparib in patients with previously treated BRCA1/2- or PALB2-mutant pancreatic adenocarcinoma (PDAC). METHODS: Patients with stage III/IV PDAC and known germline BRCA1/2 or PALB2 mutation, 1-2 lines of treatment, Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group 0-2, were enrolled. Veliparib was dosed at a volume of 300 mg twice-daily (N = 3), then 400 mg twice-daily (N = 15) days 1-28. The primary end-point was to determine the response rate of veliparib; secondary end-points included progression-free survival (PFS), duration of response, overall survival (OS) and safety. RESULTS: Sixteen patients were enrolled; male N = 8 (50%). Median age was 52 years (range 43-77). Five (31%) had a BRCA1 and 11 (69%) had a BRCA2 mutation. Fourteen (88%) patients had received prior platinum-based therapy. No confirmed partial responses (PRs) were seen: one (6%) unconfirmed PR was observed at 4 months with disease progression (PD) at 6 months; four (25%) had stable disease (SD), whereas 11 (69%) had PD as best response including one with clinical PD. Median PFS was 1.7 months (95% confidence interval [CI] 1.57-1.83) and median OS was 3.1 months (95% CI 1.9-4.1). Six (38%) patients had grade III toxicity, including fatigue (N = 3), haematology (N = 2) and nausea (N = 1). CONCLUSIONS: Veliparib was well tolerated, but no confirmed response was observed although four (25%) patients remained on study with SD for ≥ 4 months. Additional strategies in this population are needed, and ongoing trials are evaluating PARPis combined with chemotherapy (NCT01585805) and as a maintenance strategy (NCT02184195).

OBJECTIVES: To review the clinical safety experience of the monoclonal antibody IMC-C225, focusing on two clinically important adverse events: acne-like rash and allergic reactions. In addition, practical administration issues are discussed. DATA SOURCES: Research articles. CONCLUSIONS: IMC-C225 administration is well tolerated and adverse events are mild and manageable. IMC-C225 can be safely and conveniently administered once weekly in outpatient settings. IMPLICATIONS FOR NURSING PRACTICE: Because nurses will be involved with administration of IMC-C225 in the clinical setting, they must understand and be prepared to manage the acute and long-term adverse events associated with this agent.

PURPOSE: Although neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy achieves low local recurrence rates in clinical stages II to III rectal cancer, it delays administration of optimal chemotherapy. We evaluated preoperative infusional fluorouracil, leucovorin, and oxaliplatin (FOLFOX)/bevacizumab with selective rather than consistent use of chemoradiotherapy. PATIENTS AND METHODS: Thirty-two patients with clinical stages II to III rectal cancer participated in this single-center phase II trial. All were candidates for low anterior resection with total mesorectal excision (TME). Patients were to receive six cycles of FOLFOX, with bevacizumab included for cycles 1 to 4. Patients with stable/progressive disease were to have radiation before TME, whereas responders were to have immediate TME. Postoperative radiation was planned if R0 resection was not achieved. Postoperative FOLFOX × 6 was recommended, but adjuvant regimens were left to clinician discretion. The primary outcome was R0 resection rate. RESULTS: Between April 2007 and December 2008, 32 (100%) of 32 study participants had R0 resections. Two did not complete preoperative chemotherapy secondary to cardiovascular toxicity. Both had preoperative chemoradiotherapy and then R0 resections. Of 30 patients completing preoperative chemotherapy, all had tumor regression and TME without preoperative chemoradiotherapy. The pathologic complete response rate to chemotherapy alone was 8 of 32 (25%; 95% CI, 11% to 43%). The 4-year local recurrence rate was 0% (95% CI, 0% to 11%); the 4-year disease-free survival was 84% (95% CI, 67% to 94%). CONCLUSION: For selected patients with clinical stages II to III rectal cancer, neoadjuvant chemotherapy and selective radiation does not seem to compromise outcomes. Preoperative Radiation or Selective Preoperative Radiation and Evaluation Before Chemotherapy and TME (PROSPECT), a randomized phase III trial to validate this experience, is now open in the US cooperative group network.

BACKGROUND: To test whether intratumoral gene expression levels and germline polymorphisms predict clinical outcome in metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC) patients treated with cetuximab and bevacizumab plus irinotecan (CBI) vs. cetuximab and bevacizumab (CB)(BOND2). PATIENTS AND METHODS: Genomic DNA was extracted for genotyping from 65 patients (31: CBI arm and 34: CB arm). Thirty five patients had tissue samples available for the gene expression assay (18: CBI arm and 17: CB arm). RESULTS: High intratumoral gene expression levels of EGFR, VEGFR2 and NRP1 were associated with longer overall survival (OS) in patients receiving combined monoclonal antibodies with or without irinotecan. FCGR3A V158F, CyclinD1 A870G and EGFR R497K polymorphisms are associated with clinical outcome in patients received combined cetuximab and bevacizumab. CONCLUSIONS: Intratumoral gene expression levels of EGFR, VEGFR2 and NRP as well as polymorphisms in FCGR3A, CyclinD1 and EGFR could predict clinical outcome in mCRC patients enrolled in BOND2, independent of KRAS mutation status.

PURPOSE: To evaluate the safety and efficacy of IMC-A12, a human monoclonal antibody (mAb) that blocks insulin-like growth factor receptor-1 (IGF-1R), as monotherapy or in combination with cetuximab in patients with metastatic refractory anti-epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mAb colorectal cancer. METHODS: A randomized, phase II study was performed in which patients in arm A received IMC-A12 10 mg/kg intravenously (IV) every 2 weeks, while patients in arm B received this same dose of IMC-A12 plus cetuximab 500 mg/m(2) IV every 2 weeks. Subsequently, arm C (same combination treatment as arm B) was added to include patients who had disease control on a prior anti-EGFR mAb and wild-type KRAS tumors. Archived pretreatment tumor tissue was obtained when possible for KRAS, PIK3CA, and BRAF genotyping, and immunohistochemistry was obtained for pAKT as well as IGF-1R. RESULTS: Overall, 64 patients were treated (median age, 61 years; range, 40 to 84 years): 23 patients in arm A, 21 in arm B, and 20 in arm C. No antitumor activity was seen in the 23 patients treated with IMC-A12 monotherapy. Of the 21 patients randomly assigned to IMC-A12 plus cetuximab, one patient (with KRAS wild type) achieved a partial response, with disease control lasting 6.5 months. Arm C (all patients with KRAS wild type), however, showed no additional antitumor activity. Serious adverse events thought possibly related to IMC-A12 included a grade 2 infusion-related reaction (2%; one of 64 patients), thrombocytopenia (2%; one of 64 patients), grade 3 hyperglycemia (2%; one of 64 patients), and grade 1 pyrexia (2%, one of 64 patients). CONCLUSION: IMC-A12 alone or in combination with cetuximab was insufficient to warrant additional study in patients with colorectal cancer refractory to EGFR inhibitors.

BACKGROUND: FK866 is a potent inhibitor or NAD synthesis. This first-in-human study was performed to determine the maximum-tolerated dose, toxicity profile, and pharmacokinetics on a 96-h continuous infusion schedule. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Twenty four patients with advanced solid tumor malignancies refractory to standard therapies were treated with escalating doses of FK866 as a continuous, 96-h infusion given every 28 days. Serial plasma samples were collected to characterize the pharmacokinetics of FK866. Further blood samples were collected for the measurement of plasma VEGF levels. RESULTS: There were 12 women and 12 men with a median age of 61 (range 34-78) and a median KPS of 80%, received a 4-day of infusion of FK866 at dose levels of 0.018 mg/m2/h (n=3), 0.036 mg/m2/h (n=3), 0.072 mg/m2/h (n=3), 0.108 mg/m2/h (n=4), 0.126 mg/m2/h (n=6), and 0.144 mg/m2/h (n=5). Thrombocytopenia was the dose limiting toxicity, observed in two patients at the highest dose level and one patient at the recommended phase II dose of 0.126 mg/m2/h No other hematologic toxicities were noted other than mild lymphopenia and anemia. There was mild fatigue and grade 3 nausea; the latter was controlled with antiemetics and was not a DLT. Css (the mean of the 72 and 96 h plasma concentrations) increased in relation to the dose escalation. The study drug did not significantly affect plasma concentrations of VEGF. There were no objective responses, although four patients had stable disease (on treatment for 3 months or greater). CONCLUSIONS: The recommended phase II dose is 0.126 mg/m2/h given as a continuous 96-h infusion every 28 days. The dose limiting toxicity of FK866 is thrombocytopenia. Pharmacokinetic data suggest an increase in the plasma Css in relation to the escalation of FK866.

PURPOSE: Bevacizumab is a humanized monoclonal antibody that targets vascular endothelial growth factor. As a result of concerns for potential infusion-related hypersensitivity reactions (HSRs), initial phase I trials used a 90-, 60-, 30-minute initial infusion sequence. We sought to determine if the initial prolonged infusion was still necessary and if an infusion time of fewer than 30 minutes could be safely used. METHODS: We used computerized pharmacy records to identify all patients who received bevacizumab at our institution in the first 2 years of commercial availability (February 1, 2004, to June 30, 2006). Our institutional adverse drug reaction reporting program was used to identify any infusion reactions possibly related to bevacizumab, and patient medical records were reviewed for confirmation. RESULTS: A total of 1,077 patients were treated with 10,606 doses of bevacizumab, and 765 of these patients received a 5-mg/kg dose (total of 8,494 doses). No HSRs occurred with the 90-, 60-, 30-minute infusion sequence in the first 202 patients. The standard infusion rate was then modified to 30 minutes for all bevacizumab doses. No HSRs were encountered. The infusion was again modified to a rate of 0.5 mg/kg/min. Of the 370 patients who received a total of 2,311 doses of bevacizumab at 5 mg/kg over 10 minutes, six (1.6%) experienced events of minor clinical consequence that were possibly consistent with nonserious HSRs. CONCLUSION: Ninety- and 60-minute initial infusion times are unnecessary. Use of a standard infusion rate of 0.5 mg/kg/min is safe, logical, and the current policy at our institution.

PURPOSE: We evaluated the safety and efficacy of concurrent administration of two monoclonal antibodies, cetuximab and bevacizumab, in patients with metastatic colorectal cancer. PATIENTS AND METHODS: This was a randomized phase II study in patients with irinotecan-refractory colorectal cancer. All patients were naïve to both bevacizumab and cetuximab. Patients in arm A received irinotecan at the same dose and schedule as last received before study entry, plus cetuximab 400 mg/m2 loading dose, then weekly cetuximab 250 mg/m2, plus bevacizumab 5 mg/kg administered every other week. Patients in arm B received the same cetuximab and bevacizumab as those in arm A but without irinotecan. RESULTS: Forty-three patients received cetuximab, bevacizumab, and irinotecan (CBI) and 40 patients received cetuximab and bevacizumab alone (CB). Toxicities were as would have been expected from the single agents. For the CBI arm, time to tumor progression (TTP) was 7.3 months and the response rate was 37%; for the CB arm, TTP was 4.9 months and the response rate was 20%. The overall survival for the CBI arm was 14.5 months and the overall survival for the CB-alone arm was 11.4 months. CONCLUSION: Cetuximab and bevacizumab can be administered concurrently, with a toxicity pattern that seems to be similar to that which would be expected from the two agents alone. This combination plus irinotecan also seems to be feasible. The activity seen with the addition of bevacizumab to cetuximab, or to cetuximab plus irinotecan, seems to be favorable when compared with historical controls of cetuximab or cetuximab/irinotecan in patients who are naïve to bevacizumab.
