Trabectedin plus CD13-targeted tissue factor tTF-NGR against advanced relapsed or refractory soft tissue sarcoma: translational data, clinical safety and efficacy.

ABSTRACT: Trabectedin is standard for r/r soft tissue sarcomas. tTF-NGR accumulates in tumor vasculature leading to tumor vascular occlusion and tumor infarction. Both compounds in sequence could trap trabectedin inside tumors and increase its efficacy, which then optimizes the pro-coagulatory activity of tTF-NGR. This report summarizes translational data and results of the safety run-in patient cohort of the TRABTRAP trial combining trabectedin plus tTF-NGR. A dose of trabectedin of 1.5 mg/m² (24 h, day 1) combined with 1.0 mg/m² of tTF-NGR (1 h, days 2 and 3, q day 22) represents the approx. Maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and with 0.5 mg/m² tTF-NGR (days 2 and 3) the recommended starting dose for the randomized part of TRABTRAP. None of the 6 patients on 0.5 mg/m
