PaFLO: Pazopanib with 5-fluorouracil, leucovorin, and oxaliplatin (FLO) as first-line treatment in advanced gastric cancer: A randomized phase II stu…

TPS4138 Background: VEGF inhibition in gastric cancer shows promising improvement of remission rate and progression-free survival (Ohtsu et al., JCO 2011). Pazopanib is an orally available tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) selectively inhibiting VEGFR-1, -2, -3, c-kit and PDGFR. It is approved for treating renal cell cancer. A phase-I trial showed good tolerability of pazopanib with full-dose FOLFOX in solid tumors (Brady et al., ASCO, 2009). FLO is a widely used combination for advanced gastric cancer recommended in national guidelines. Methods: 75 Patients with HER-2-negative locally advanced or metastatic adenocarcinoma of the stomach or the gastro-esophageal junction will be randomized i…

Lapatinib in combination with ECF/x in EGFR1 positive first-line metastatic gastric cancer (GC): A phase II randomized placebo controlled trial (EORT…

2012

TPS4140 Background: Survival of HER2+ metastatic GC is prolonged by trastuzumab when administered with CF/X (VanCutsem, ASCO 2009). Lapatinib inhibits both EGFR1 and HER2, is active in HER2+ GC lines, and has shown clinical activity in uncontrolled phase II GC trials. A phase III trial of lapatinib with X + oxaliplatin in HER2+ (FISH) GC is closed to recruitment. Additional unaddressed questions include the efficacy and safety of lapatinib with ECF/X (epirubicin + cisplatin + 5-FU or capecitabine (X), which is a preferred chemotherapy (CT) regimen in GC), and its activity in patients (pts) with discordant FISH or IHC HER2 status or EGFR1+. Methods: This is a phase II, randomized, double- b…

Sequential ipilimumab (Ipi) versus best supportive care (BSC) following first-line chemotherapy (Ctx) in patients (pts) with unresectable locally adv…

TPS4151 Background: First-line systemic CTX is standard-of-care for advanced gastric cancer. However, most pts relapse or have severe adverse events (AEs), creating a need for new therapies with better benefit/risk and toxicity profiles. Endogenous immune activity against tumor cells has been demonstrated in the human gastric cancer tumor microenvironment, supporting a role for immunotherapy. As a new maintenance concept, sequential administration of immunotherapy may prolong clinical benefit of first-line CTX before disease progression (PD). Ipi, a fully human monoclonal antibody which binds CTLA-4, augments the antitumor immune response. Ipi improved overall survival (OS) in patients wit…

Real-World Experience of CPX-351 As First-Line Treatment in 188 Patients with Acute Myeloid Leukemia

2021

Abstract Background In a recent phase-III trial CPX-351 (Jazz Pharmaceuticals, Palo Alto, CA), a liposomal encapsulation of cytarabine and daunorubicin, has shown higher remission rates and longer overall survival (OS) in patients aged 60 to 75 years with AML with myelodysplasia-related changes (AML-MRC) or therapy-related AML (t-AML) in comparison to conventional 7+3 regimen. Based on this CPX-351 has been approved in the USA 2017 and in Europe 2018 for adult patients with newly-diagnosed AML-MRC or t-AML. Still, several issues such as age (<60 years), measurable residual disease (MRD), molecular subgroups and outcome after allo-HCT were not addressed in the phase-III trial. Aiming …

(90)Yttrium-ibritumomab-tiuxetan as first-line treatment for follicular lymphoma: 30 months of follow-up data from an international multicenter phase…

2012

Purpose We report on a multicenter phase II trial of 90yttrium-ibritumomab-tiuxetan (90YIT) as first-line stand-alone therapy for patients with follicular lymphoma (FL). Patients and Methods Fifty-nine patients with CD20+ FL grade 1 to 3a in stages II, III, or IV, age 50 years old or older requiring therapy were enrolled. They received 90YIT according to standard procedure. If complete response (CR) or unconfirmed complete response (CRu) without evidence for minimal residual disease (MRD) 6 months after application of 90YIT was achieved, patients were observed without further intervention. The same applied to patients with partial response (PR) or with stable disease (SD). Patients with CR …

Phase III Trial of Avelumab Maintenance After First-Line Induction Chemotherapy Versus Continuation of Chemotherapy in Patients With Gastric Cancers:…

2021

PURPOSE The role of maintenance therapy for gastric (GC) or gastroesophageal junction cancer (GEJC) is unclear. We investigated avelumab (anti–programmed death ligand-1 [PD-L1]) maintenance after first-line induction chemotherapy for GC/GEJC. PATIENTS AND METHODS JAVELIN Gastric 100 was a global, open-label, phase III trial. Eligible patients had untreated, unresectable, human epidermal growth factor receptor 2–negative, locally advanced or metastatic GC or GEJC. Patients without progressive disease after 12 weeks of first-line chemotherapy with oxaliplatin plus a fluoropyrimidine were randomly assigned 1:1 to avelumab 10 mg/kg every 2 weeks or continued chemotherapy, stratified by region (…

Safety of the first dose of fingolimod for multiple sclerosis: results of an open-label clinical trial

2014

BACKGROUND: In patients with relapsing-remitting MS (RRMS) fingolimod prevents disease relapses and delays disability progression. First dose administration of fingolimod is associated with a transient, dose-dependent decrease in heart rate (HR) in the 6 hours after drug intake.The aim of the study is to to assess safety and tolerability of the first dose of fingolimod in a cohort of Italian patients with RRMS without alternative therapeutic options. METHODS: Open-label, single arm, multicentre study. After the first dose of fingolimod, patients were observed for 6 hours and had their vital signs monitored hourly. Extended on-site monitoring was provided when required. RESULTS: Of the 906 p…
