Popis: | 77 Background: MSS mCRC rarely responds to pembrolizumab monotherapy, but capecitabine and bevacizumab may induce immune-stimulatory effects. This study evaluates the safety, tolerability and preliminary efficacy of pembrolizumab in combination with capecitabine and bevacizumab in MSS mCRC. We present results at the planned interim analysis. Methods: Design:single-arm, open-label, single-site phase 2 trial with a safety lead-in to confirm the recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D) for capecitabine and expansion cohorts. Per the Simon’s 2-stage design, ≤1 response in 29 patients (pts) requires trial suspension. Key eligibility criteria: MSS mCRC with stable disease (SD) or progressive disease (PD) on prior fluoropyrimidine-based therapy. Treatment: RP2D PO capecitabine on days 1-14 plus 200 mg IV pembrolizumab and 7.5 mg/kg IV bevacizumab on day 1 in 21-day cycles. Pts are followed for toxicity and radiographic response. Results: From 04/2018-09/2020, 29 pts were enrolled, of whom 15 (52%) were female; 21 (72%) white; and median age was 55 years (range 36-77 years). Prior therapies: 2 (7%) pts had SD and 27 (93%) pts had PD on fluoropyrimidine-containing regimens; 24 (83%) pts had prior exposure to bevacizumab. The RP2D for capecitabine was 1000 mg/m2 PO BID, with no dose limiting toxicities observed. Complete toxicity data are available for 25 off-treatment pts. The most common related adverse events (AEs) were palmar-plantar erythrodysesthesia (PPE) (64%) and fatigue (68%). Grade ≥3 related AEs occurred in 9 (36%) pts, including immune-related AEs of Grade 3 dyspnea, hypophosphatemia, and pancreatitis in 1 pt each. Treatment related AEs leading to dose interruptions, reductions, or delays occurred in 15 (60%) pts, most commonly PPE in 13 (52%) pts. No pt had a related AE leading to treatment discontinuation or death. Disposition: of 29 pts enrolled, 24 were removed for PD and 1 was removed for an unrelated AE. Best response by RECIST 1.1 in 23 evaluable pts: partial response (PR) in 2 (9%); SD in 14 (61%); PD in 7 (30%). Median time on treatment was 6 months (range 2-26 months). Conclusions: Combination of pembrolizumab with capecitabine and bevacizumab was found to be tolerable with an expected toxicity profile in MSS mCRC pts. With 2 responses, the study met interim analysis criteria to continue accrual. Tissue and blood-based immune correlatives are planned. Clinical trial information: NCT03396926. |
