Trifluridine/tipiracil : an emerging strategy for the management of gastrointestinal cancers
2018
Fluoropyrimidines are currently the backbone of treatment for gastrointestinal (GI) cancers but development of resistance to these agents remains a major problem. Trifluridine/tipiracil is an oral chemotherapeutic agent recently approved for third-line treatment of chemorefractory metastatic colorectal cancer. This article reviews the clinical value of trifluridine/tipiracil as a monotherapy, including recent trials in GI cancers, and the potential benefit of combining it with other agents in patients with GI cancers, including the preclinical rationale for combination therapy and recently completed and ongoing clinical trials. Data gathered so far suggest that trifluridine/tipiracil has t…
Increased efficacy of stereotactic ablative radiation therapy after bevacizumab in lung oligometastases from colon cancer.
2018
Aim: Metastases from colorectal cancer are poorly responsive to stereotactic ablative radiation therapy (SABR) due to intratumoral hypoxia. Intratumoral oxygenation is improved by administration of angiogenesis inhibitors. Thus, there could be a clinical synergistic effect of SABR with bevacizumab on metastases from colorectal cancer. The aim of this study was to evaluate the feasibility and efficacy of SABR after bevacizumab in lung oligometastases from colon cancer. Methods: The data of patients with lung metastases from colon cancer who underwent SABR were retrospectively evaluated according to the following inclusion criteria: number of metastases ≤3; lung oligometastases from colon can…
Abstract P1-19-08: Neratinib + trastuzumab + fulvestrant for HER2-mutant, hormone receptor-positive, metastatic breast cancer: Updated results from t…
2020
Abstract Background: HER2 mutations define a subset of metastatic breast cancers (MBCs) with a unique mechanism of oncogenic addiction to HER2 signaling. Neratinib, an irreversible pan-HER tyrosine kinase inhibitor, has been shown to have encouraging clinical activity when combined with fulvestrant in HER2-mutant, hormone receptor-positive (HR+) MBC [Smyth et al. SABCS 2018]. Genomic analyses suggest that acquired resistance to neratinib may occur by the acquisition of additional HER2 alterations, which may amplify HER2 pathway signaling [Won et al. AACR 2019]. We therefore explored whether dual HER2-targeted therapy may improve clinical benefit in this setting. Here we describe initial res…
Radiomics predicts survival of patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer undergoing PD-1 blockade using Nivolumab
2019
Immune checkpoint blockade is an emerging anticancer strategy, and Nivolumab is a human mAb to PD-1 that is used in the treatment of a number of different malignancies, including non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), kidney cancer, urothelial carcinoma and melanoma. Although the use of Nivolumab prolongs survival in a number of patients, this treatment is hampered by high cost. Therefore, the identification of predictive markers of response to treatment in patients is required. In this context, PD-1/PDL1 blockade antitumor effects occur through the reactivation of a pre-existing immune response, and the efficacy of these effects is strictly associated with the presence of necrosis, hypoxia an…
The McCAVE Trial: Vanucizumab plus mFOLFOX‐6 Versus Bevacizumab plus mFOLFOX‐6 in Patients with Previously Untreated Metastatic Colorectal Carcinoma …
2019
Abstract Background Bevacizumab, a VEGF‐A inhibitor, in combination with chemotherapy, has proven to increase progression‐free survival (PFS) and overall survival in multiple lines of therapy of metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC). The angiogenic factor angiopoetin‐2 (Ang‐2) is associated with poor prognosis in many cancers, including mCRC. Preclinical models demonstrate improved activity when inhibiting both VEGF‐A and Ang‐2, suggesting that the dual VEGF‐A and Ang‐2 blocker vanucizumab (RO5520985 or RG‐7221) may improve clinical outcomes. This phase II trial evaluated the efficacy of vanucizumab plus modified (m)FOLFOX‐6 (folinic acid (leucovorin), fluorouracil (5‐FU) and oxaliplatin) ver…
FAST: An international, multicenter, randomized, phase II trial of epirubicin, oxaliplatin, and capecitabine (EOX) with or without IMAB362, a first-i…
2016
LBA4001 Background: Claudin18.2 (CLDN18.2) is a tight junction protein expressed by several cancers including gastric and GEJ adenocarcinoma. IMAB362 is a chimeric monoclonal antibody that mediates specific killing of CLDN18.2-positive cancer cells by activation of immune effector mechanisms. IMAB362 has demonstrated single-agent activity and was safe and tolerable in patients (pts) with pretreated gastric cancer. Methods: Pts with advanced/recurrent gastric and GEJ cancer were centrally evaluated for CLDN18.2 expression by IHC (validated CLAUDETECT18.2 Kit). Eligible pts had a CLDN18.2 expression of ≥ 2+ in ≥ 40% tumor cells, an ECOG PS of 0–1 and were not eligible for trastuzumab. Pts we…

TPS4134Background: Programmed death-1 receptor ligand (PD-L1) is a key therapeutic target in the reactivation of the immune response against multiple cancers. Avelumab* is a fully human anti-PD-L1 ...
Phase 1b/3 study of avelumab-based combination regimens in patients with relapsed or refractory diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (R/R DLBCL).
2017
TPS7575 Background: Approximately 50% of patients (pts) with advanced DLBCL are refractory to or relapse following first line R-CHOP therapy. Pts with R/R DLBCL have limited treatment options and a poor prognosis. This study assesses immunotherapy-based regimens containing avelumab (a fully human IgG1 anti–PD-L1 antibody) in combination with utomilumab (a novel 4-1BB agonist), azacitidine, rituximab, and/or conventional chemotherapy (CT; bendamustine) in pts with R/R DLBCL. Methods: JAVELIN DLBCL (NCT02951156) is a global, multicenter, randomized, open-label, 2-component(phase 1b followed by phase 3) study of avelumab-based combination regimens in R/R DLBCL. In phase 1b, up to 84 pts will …

Abstract CT301: A phase Ib study to evaluate RO7198457, an individualized Neoantigen Specific immunoTherapy (iNeST), in combination with atezolizumab…
2020
Abstract Background: Neoantigens arising from somatic mutations are attractive targets for cancer immunotherapy as they may be recognized as foreign by the immune system. RO7198457, a systemically administered RNA-Lipoplex iNeST was designed to stimulate T cell responses against neoantigens. A first-in-human Phase Ib study of RO7198457, in combination with the aPD-L1 antibody atezolizumab is being conducted in patients with locally advanced or metastatic solid tumors. Methods: RO7198457 is manufactured on a per-patient basis and contains up to 20 tumor-specific neoepitopes. Nine doses of RO7198457 were administered i.v. in weekly and bi-weekly intervals during the 12-week induction stage an…
