Phase 2 trial of palbociclib and ganitumab in patients with relapsed Ewing sarcoma.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Ewing sarcoma (EWS) is an aggressive sarcoma with few treatment options for patients with relapsed disease. Cyclin-dependent kinase 4 (CDK4) is a genomic vulnerability in EWS that is synergistic with IGF-1R inhibition in preclinical studies. We present the results of a phase 2 study combining palbociclib (CDK4/6 inhibitor) with ganitumab (IGF-1R monoclonal antibody) for patients with relapsed EWS.

Patients and methods

This open-label, non-randomized, phase 2 trial enrolled patients ≥12 years with relapsed EWS. All patients had molecular confirmation of EWS and RECIST measurable disease. Patients initially received palbociclib 125 mg orally on Days 1-21 and ganitumab 18 mg/kg intravenously on Days 1 and 15 of a 28-day cycle. The primary endpoints were objective res
