TIPS-21 PHASE I/II STUDY OF STEREOTACTIC RADIOSURGERY WITH CONCURRENT OLAPARIB FOLLOWED BY ADJUVANT DURVALUMAB AND PHYSICIAN’S CHOICE SYSTEMIC THERAPY IN SUBJECTS WITH BREAST CANCER BRAIN METASTASES (SOLARA)

ABSTRACT: Abstract

BACKGROUND

Despite progress in the treatment of brain metastasis (BrM) for HER2+ breast cancer (BC), outcomes for patients with HER2-negative BC BrM remain poor. Current standard of care consists of surgery and/or radiotherapy followed by systemic therapy. Preclinical studies show inhibitors of poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) are effective together with radiotherapy as DNA damage response inhibitors. Triple-negative BC (TNBC) has higher rates of homologous recombination deficiency compared to other BC subtypes, and together with HER2-negative, BRCA-mutated BC would be particularly sensitive to PARP inhibition. PARP inhibition with immunotherapy has demonstrated promising efficacy in patients with germline BRCA-mutant and metastatic TNBC in clinical trials (MEDIOLA, TOPACIO). In addition, immunotherapy with stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) is associated with favorable outcomes in patients with BrM. We hypothesize that this biologically-driven combination will enhance local control of SRS-treated BrM through synergy with PARP inhibition, while controlling micrometastatic disease in the brain and extracranial sites by potentiating the immune response.

METHODS

We are conducting a multi-institution, Phase I/II trial of SRS plus olaparib, followed by durvalumab (with physician’s choice systemic therapy), for patients with TNBC (any BRCA status) or HER2-negative with BRCA-mutated (germline or somatic) BC BrM [NCT04711824]. The primary objectives are to evaluate safety and tolerability (Phase I) and intracranial disease control at 6 months (Phase II). Secondary objectives include assessing intracranial and global progression-free survival, overall survival, and intracranial/extracranial response rate. Exploratory objectives will assess potential biomarkers of treatment response, including changes in circulating tumor cells/DNA in blood and cerebrospinal fluid, germline and tumor mutations in DNA repair pathway genes, and PD-L1 expression, as well as quality of life and patient-reported outcomes. A surgical sub-study (n=5) will evaluate olaparib concentration/distribution in resected BrM. As of January 2023, cohort 1 of phase I has been completed without dose-limiting toxicity.

Project description:PurposeImmunotherapy and chemotherapy combinations have shown activity in endometrial cancer, with greater benefit in mismatch repair (MMR)-deficient (dMMR) than MMR-proficient (pMMR) disease. Adding a poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase inhibitor may improve outcomes, especially in pMMR disease.MethodsThis phase III, global, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial randomly assigned eligible patients with newly diagnosed advanced or recurrent endometrial cancer 1:1:1 to: carboplatin/paclitaxel plus durvalumab placebo followed by placebo maintenance (control arm); carboplatin/paclitaxel plus durvalumab followed by maintenance durvalumab plus olaparib placebo (durvalumab arm); or carboplatin/paclitaxel plus durvalumab followed by maintenance durvalumab plus olaparib (durvalumab + olaparib arm). The primary end points were progression-free survival (PFS) in the durvalumab arm versus control and the durvalumab + olaparib arm versus control.ResultsSeven hundred eighteen patients were randomly assigned. In the intention-to-treat population, statistically significant PFS benefit was observed in the durvalumab (hazard ratio [HR], 0.71 [95% CI, 0.57 to 0.89]; P = .003) and durvalumab + olaparib arms (HR, 0.55 [95% CI, 0.43 to 0.69]; P < .0001) versus control. Prespecified, exploratory subgroup analyses showed PFS benefit in dMMR (HR [durvalumab v control], 0.42 [95% CI, 0.22 to 0.80]; HR [durvalumab + olaparib v control], 0.41 [95% CI, 0.21 to 0.75]) and pMMR subgroups (HR [durvalumab v control], 0.77 [95% CI, 0.60 to 0.97]; HR [durvalumab + olaparib v control] 0.57; [95% CI, 0.44 to 0.73]); and in PD-L1-positive subgroups (HR [durvalumab v control], 0.63 [95% CI, 0.48 to 0.83]; HR [durvalumab + olaparib v control], 0.42 [95% CI, 0.31 to 0.57]). Interim overall survival results (maturity approximately 28%) were supportive of the primary outcomes (durvalumab v control: HR, 0.77 [95% CI, 0.56 to 1.07]; P = .120; durvalumab + olaparib v control: HR, 0.59 [95% CI, 0.42 to 0.83]; P = .003). The safety profiles of the experimental arms were generally consistent with individual agents.ConclusionCarboplatin/paclitaxel plus durvalumab followed by maintenance durvalumab with or without olaparib demonstrated a statistically significant and clinically meaningful PFS benefit in patients with advanced or recurrent endometrial cancer.

Project description:IntroductionNeoadjuvant stereotactic radiosurgery (NaSRS) of brain metastases has gained importance, but it is not routinely performed. While awaiting the results of prospective studies, we aimed to analyze the changes in the volume of brain metastases irradiated pre- and postoperatively and the resulting dosimetric effects on normal brain tissue (NBT).MethodsWe identified patients treated with SRS at our institution to compare hypothetical preoperative gross tumor and planning target volumes (pre-GTV and pre-PTV) with original postoperative resection cavity volumes (post-GTV and post-PTV) as well as with a standardized-hypothetical PTV with 2.0 mm margin. We used Pearson correlation to assess the association between the GTV and PTV changes with the pre-GTV. A multiple linear regression analysis was established to predict the GTV change. Hypothetical planning for the selected cases was created to assess the volume effect on the NBT exposure. We performed a literature review on NaSRS and searched for ongoing prospective trials.ResultsWe included 30 patients in the analysis. The pre-/post-GTV and pre-/post-PTV did not differ significantly. We observed a negative correlation between pre-GTV and GTV-change, which was also a predictor of volume change in the regression analysis, in terms of a larger volume change for a smaller pre-GTV. In total, 62.5% of cases with an enlargement greater than 5.0 cm3 were smaller tumors (pre-GTV < 15.0 cm3), whereas larger tumors greater than 25.0 cm3 showed only a decrease in post-GTV. Hypothetical planning for the selected cases to evaluate the volume effect resulted in a median NBT exposure of only 67.6% (range: 33.2-84.5%) relative to the dose received by the NBT in the postoperative SRS setting. Nine published studies and twenty ongoing studies are listed as an overview.ConclusionPatients with smaller brain metastases may have a higher risk of volume increase when irradiated postoperatively. Target volume delineation is of great importance because the PTV directly affects the exposure of NBT, but it is a challenge when contouring resection cavities. Further studies should identify patients at risk of relevant volume increase to be preferably treated with NaSRS in routine practice. Ongoing clinical trials will evaluate additional benefits of NaSRS.

Project description:BackgroundStereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) is a frequently chosen treatment for patients with brain metastases and the number of long-term survivors is increasing. Brain necrosis (e.g. radionecrosis) is the most important long-term side effect of the treatment. Retrospective studies show a lower risk of radionecrosis and local tumor recurrence after fractionated stereotactic radiosurgery (fSRS, e.g. five fractions) compared with stereotactic radiosurgery in one or three fractions. This is especially true for patients with large brain metastases. As such, the 2022 ASTRO guideline of radiotherapy for brain metastases recommends more research to fSRS to reduce the risk of radionecrosis. This multicenter prospective randomized study aims to determine whether the incidence of adverse local events (either local failure or radionecrosis) can be reduced using fSRS versus SRS in one or three fractions in patients with brain metastases.MethodsPatients are eligible with one or more brain metastases from a solid primary tumor, age of 18 years or older, and a Karnofsky Performance Status ≥ 70. Exclusion criteria include patients with small cell lung cancer, germinoma or lymphoma, leptomeningeal metastases, a contraindication for MRI, prior inclusion in this study, prior surgery for brain metastases, prior radiotherapy for the same brain metastases (in-field re-irradiation). Participants will be randomized between SRS with a dose of 15-24 Gy in 1 or 3 fractions (standard arm) or fSRS 35 Gy in five fractions (experimental arm). The primary endpoint is the incidence of a local adverse event (local tumor failure or radionecrosis identified on MRI scans) at two years after treatment. Secondary endpoints are salvage treatment and the use of corticosteroids, bevacizumab, or antiepileptic drugs, survival, distant brain recurrences, toxicity, and quality of life.DiscussionCurrently, limiting the risk of adverse events such as radionecrosis is a major challenge in the treatment of brain metastases. fSRS potentially reduces this risk of radionecrosis and local tumor failure.Trial registrationClincalTrials.gov, trial registration number: NCT05346367 , trial registration date: 26 April 2022.

Project description:BackgroundPatients with bladder cancer (BC) who are cisplatin ineligible or have unresectable disease have limited treatment options. Previously, we showed targeting programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1) with durvalumab (durva) and radiation therapy (RT) combination was safe in BC. We now report results from a phase II study evaluating the toxicity and efficacy of durva and RT in localized BC.MethodsThis is a single-arm, multi-institutional phase II study; N=26. Enrolled patients had pure or mixed urothelial BC (T2-4 N0-2 M0) with unresectable tumors and were unfit for surgery or cisplatin ineligible. Patients received durva concurrently with RT ×7 weeks, followed by adjuvant durva × 1 year.Primary endpoints(A) progression-free survival (PFS) at 1 year and (B) disease control rate (DCR) post adjuvant durva. Key secondary endpoints: (A) complete response (CR) post durvaRT (8 weeks), (B) overall survival (OS), (C) PFS and (D) toxicity. Correlative studies included evaluation of baseline tumor and blood (baseline, post durvaRT) for biomarkers.ResultsMedian follow-up was 27 months. Evaluable patients: 24/26 post durvaRT, 22/26 for DCR post adjuvant durva, all patients for PFS and OS. Post adjuvant durva, DCR was seen in 72.7%, CR of 54.5%. 1-year PFS was 71.5%, median PFS was 21.8 months. 1-year OS was 83.8%, median OS was 30.8 months. CR at 8 weeks post durvaRT was 62.5%. Node positive (N+) patients had similar median PFS and OS. DurvaRT was well tolerated. Grade ≥3 treatment-related adverse events: anemia, high lipase/amylase, immune-nephritis, transaminitis, dyspnea (grade 4-COPD/immune), fatigue, rash, diarrhea and scleritis. No difference in outcome was observed with PD-L1 status of baseline tumor. Patients with CR/PR or SD had an increase in naïve CD4 T cells, a decrease in PD-1+CD4 T cells at baseline and an increase in cytokine-producing CD8 T cells, including interferon gamma (IFNγ) producing cells, in the peripheral blood.ConclusionDurva with RT followed by adjuvant durva was safe with promising efficacy in localized BC patients with comorbidities, including N+ patients. Larger randomized studies, like S1806 and EA8185, are needed to evaluate the efficacy of combining immunotherapy and RT in BC.Trial registration numberNCT02891161.
