Real-world effectiveness and safety of RC48-ADC alone or in combination with PD-1 inhibitors for patients with locally advanced or metastatic urothelial carcinoma: A multicenter, retrospective clinical study.

ABSTRACT:

Introduction

Previous RC48 (Disitamab Vedotin) studies established that the safety and efficacy of RC48-antibody-drug conjugate (ADC), either alone or combined with toripalimab, for metastatic urothelial carcinoma (mUC) patients exhibiting human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-positive or even HER2-negative status after standard chemotherapy failure.

Methods

With locally advanced or metastatic urothelial carcinoma (la/mUC), patients who received RC48-ADC monotherapy or a combination with programmed cell death protein 1 (PD-1) inhibitors between August 2021 and October 2022 were enrolled in this retrospective observational study to evaluate the real-world antitumor effectiveness and safety.

Results

Among the 38 enrolled patients (29 males; median age 67.5 years [38-93]), 8 received RC48-ADC monotherapy, while 30 received combination therapy. Initially, 63.2% (24/38) of the patients had received ≥1 line of prior treatment, and 63.2% (24/38) had visceral metastasis. UC of the bladder represented the majority type in 68.4% (26/38) of cases. By the data cutoff in March 2023, the overall objective response rate (ORR) was 63.2% (95% CI, 47.1%-79.2%), with a disease control rate (DCR) of 89.5% (95% CI, 79.3%-99.7%). Median follow-up time was 10.6 months. The median progression-free survival (PFS) was 8.2 months (95% CI, 5.9-10.5), with a 6-month PFS rate of 63.2% and a 12-month PFS rate of 34.1%. Median overall survival (OS) was not reached, with a 12-month OS rate of 76.7%. The median duration of response was 7.3 months (95% CI, 4.6-10.0) among 24 patients evaluated as partial response (PR). The most common treatment-related adverse events (TRAEs) included anemia (71.1%), anorexia (57.9%), asthenia (52.6%), hypoesthesia (52.6%), bone marrow suppression (47.4%), alopecia (47.4%), nausea (44.7%), proteinuria (36.8%), vomiting (34.2%), and hypoalbuminemia (31.6%). No patient experienced TRAEs of Grade ≥3. One patient had an immune-related adverse event (irAE) of rash related to toripalimab.

Conclusions

Both as monotherapy and in combination with PD-1 inhibitors, RC48-ADC exhibits promising effectiveness and manageable safety profile for mUC patients in real-world settings.

Project description:BackgroundTreatment options for patients with urothelial cancer (UC) refractory to platinum and immunotherapy are limited and survival is short. Enfortumab vedotin (EV) is a monoclonal anti-NECTIN4 antibody conjugated to monomethyl auristatin. It was recently approved because of superior survival in comparison to standard-of-care (SOC) chemotherapy. Real-world patients, however, often have worse characteristics than patients included in clinical trials.ObjectiveTo analyze the efficacy and safety of EV in a cohort of real-world patients.Design setting and participantsRetrospective data were collected from 23 hospitals and private practices for patients with metastatic and previously treated UC who received EV either when reimbursed by their insurance company before European Medicines Agency (EMA) approval, within a compassionate use program, or as SOC treatment after EMA approval. Imaging and therapy management were in accordance with local standards.Outcome measurements and statistical analysisAdverse events (AEs) were reported according to Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) version 5.0 criteria. Objective responses were evaluated according to Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors version 1.1. Progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) were estimated using the Kaplan-Meier method.Results and limitationsThe median age for the 125 eligible patients was 66 yr (range 31-89). The Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance status (ECOG PS) was 0-1 for 76.0%, 2-4 for 13.6%, and unknown for 10.4% of patients. EV was administered in the fourth or later line for 44.8% of patients. The overall response rate was 41.6% (partial response 39.2%, complete response 2.4%). Median OS was 10.0 months (mo) (95% confidence interval 7.20-12.80) and median PFS was 5.0 mo (95% confidence interval 4.34-5.67). For patients with ECOG PS of 0-1, median OS was 14 mo. Any-grade AEs were observed in 67.2% and CTCAE grade ≥3 AEs in 30.4%. The most common AEs were peripheral sensory neuropathy and skin toxicity. Three fatal events (pneumonia, pneumonitis) occurred. Limitations include the retrospective design and short follow-up.ConclusionsAdministration of EV for real-world patients was feasible with an acceptable toxicity profile. No new safety signals were reported. Antitumor activity in our cohort was comparable to data previously reported for trials. In summary, our results support the use of EV in patients with metastatic UC.Patient summaryEnfortumab vedotin is a medication that improved the survival of patients with bladder cancer in comparison to standard chemotherapy in clinical trials. However, patients included in clinical trials are highly selected and results for toxicities and improvements in survival do not always transfer to the real-world setting. We analyzed data for 125 patients who were treated with enfortumab vedotin. Our results are comparable to the outcomes from clinical trials regarding the safety and efficacy of this treatment.

Project description:BackgroundBladder cancer is the 10th most common cancer globally. The majority of bladder cancers are urothelial carcinomas (UCs), which, if locally advanced or metastatic, carry poor long-term prognosis. Cancer cells can evade the immune system by expressing the programmed cell death ligand 1 protein (PD-L1). Programmed cell death ligand 1 protein binds to programmed cell death protein 1 (PD-1) on T cells, inhibiting their antitumor action. Bladder tumor cells also overexpress nectin-4, a cell adhesion polypeptide that contributes to metastasis, worsening prognosis. Current platinum-based chemotherapy treatments are suboptimal. This review aimed to assess novel treatments for locally advanced or metastatic UC that specifically target PD-L1 or nectin-4, namely, the PD-1 inhibitor pembrolizumab and the anti-nectin-4 antibody-drug conjugate enfortumab vedotin (EV).Materials and methodsRelevant English-language peer-reviewed articles and conference abstracts from the last 5 years were identified through MEDLINE and EMBASE database searches. A narrative review was performed, with key results outlined below.ResultsPembrolizumab was demonstrated to be superior to chemotherapy as a second-line treatment for platinum-unresponsive participants in the KEYNOTE-045 trial, resulting in its Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approval. Enfortumab vedotin therapy resulted in superior outcomes compared with chemotherapy in the EV-301 trial, resulting in FDA approval for its use for patients with locally advanced or metastatic UC who had previously undergone treatment with platinum-based chemotherapy and PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitors. Positive preliminary results for pembrolizumab and EV combination therapy have led to FDA approval in patients with locally advanced or metastatic UC who are not eligible for platinum chemotherapy.ConclusionsPembrolizumab and EV represent novel treatment options for patients with locally advanced or metastatic UC with documented superior outcomes and tolerability as compared with standard chemotherapy.

Project description:BackgroundFew studies have investigated the safety and efficacy of anti-PD-(L)1 antibodies in metastatic urothelial carcinoma (mUC) in daily clinical practice. Knowledge about the influence of baseline clinical and analytical factors on therapy outcomes is scarce.Patients and methodsWe conducted a multicenter retrospective study involving 119 previously treated or untreated mUC patients under anti-PD-(L)1 therapy in a real-world scenario. The objectives of this study were to confirm the safety and efficacy of anti-PD-(L)1 monotherapy and to identify pretreatment factors influencing therapy outcomes. In addition, an independent prognostic model for overall survival (OS) was developed and internally validated.ResultsMedian OS was 7.8 months [95% confidence interval (CI), 5.4-10.4], median progression-free survival (PFS) was 2.80 months (95% CI, 2.4-3.4), disease control rate (DCR) was 40% (95% CI, 31-49), and overall response rate (ORR) was 24% (95% CI, 15-31). Presence of peritoneal metastases was associated with poor OS [hazard ratio (HR) = 2.40, 95% CI, 1.08-5.33; P = 0.03]. Use of proton-pump inhibitors (PPI) was associated with poor OS (HR = 1.83, 95% CI, 1.11-3.02; P = 0.02) and PFS (HR = 1.94, 95% CI, 1.22-3.09; P = 0.005), and lower DCR (OR = 0.38, 95% CI, 0.17-0.89; P = 0.03) and ORR (OR = 0.18, 95% CI, 0.02-1.60; P = 0.002). The three risk category prognostic model developed included Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance status, PPI use, albumin level, presence of liver metastases, and presence of peritoneal metastases variables and was associated with higher risk of death (HR = 3.00, 95% CI, 1.97-4.56; P = 0.0001).ConclusionsThis study confirms anti-PD-(L)1 monotherapy as a safe and effective treatment option in daily clinical practice for mUC patients. It also describes the presence of peritoneal metastases as an independent prognostic factor for OS and underlines the association between PPI use and worse therapeutic outcomes. Finally, it proposes a new easy-to-use risk-assessment model for OS prediction.
