Antitumor activity of lurbinectedin (PM01183) and doxorubicin in relapsed small-cell lung cancer: results from a phase I study.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Lurbinectedin (PM01183) has synergistic antitumor activity when combined with doxorubicin in mice with xenografted tumors. This phase I trial determined the recommended dose (RD) of doxorubicin (bolus) and PM01183 (1-h intravenous infusion) on day 1 every 3 weeks (q3wk), and obtained preliminary evidence of antitumor activity for this combination in small-cell lung cancer (SCLC).

Patients and methods

Patients with advanced solid tumors received doxorubicin and PM01183 following a standard dose escalation design and expansion at the RD. Twenty-seven patients had relapsed SCLC: 12 with sensitive disease (platinum-free interval ≥90 days) and 15 with resistant disease (platinum-free interval <90 days).

Results

Doxorubicin 50 mg/m2 and PM01183 4.0 mg flat dose was the RD. In relapsed SCLC, treatment tolerance at the RD was manageable. Transient and reversible myelosuppression (including neutropenia, thrombocytopenia, and febrile neutropenia) was the main toxicity, managed with dose adjustment and colony-stimulating factors. Fatigue (79%), nausea/vomiting (58%), decreased appetite (53%), mucositis (53%), alopecia (42%), diarrhea/constipation (42%), and asymptomatic creatinine (68%) and transaminase increases (alanine aminotransferase 42%; aspartate aminotransferase 32%) were common, and mostly mild or moderate. Complete (n = 2, 8%) and partial response (n = 13, 50%) occurred in relapsed SCLC, mostly at the RD. Response rates at second line were 91.7% in sensitive disease [median progression-free survival (PFS)=5.8 months] and 33.3% in resistant disease (median PFS = 3.5 months). At third line, response rate was 20.0% (median PFS = 1.2 months), all in resistant disease.

Conclusion

Doxorubicin 50 mg/m2 and PM01183 4.0 mg flat dose on day 1 q3wk has shown remarkable activity, mainly in second line, with manageable tolerance in relapsed SCLC, leading to further evaluation of this combination within an ongoing phase III trial.

Project description:ObjectiveSecond-line treatment of endometrial cancer is an unmet medical need. We conducted a phase I study evaluating lurbinectedin and doxorubicin intravenously every 3 weeks in patients with solid tumors. The aim of this study was to characterise the efficacy and safety of lurbinectedin and doxorubicin for patients with endometrial cancer.MethodsThirty-four patients were treated: 15 patients in the escalation phase (doxorubicin 50 mg/m2 and lurbinectedin 3.0-5.0 mg) and 19 patients in the expansion cohort (doxorubicin 40 mg/m2 and lurbinectedin 2.0 mg/m2). All histological subtypes were eligible and patients had received one to two prior lines of chemotherapy for advanced disease. Antitumor activity was evaluated every two cycles according to the Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors version 1.1. Adverse events were graded according to the National Cancer Institute-Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events version 4.ResultsMedian age (range) was 65 (51-78) years. Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance status was up to 1 in 97% of patients. In the escalation phase, 4 (26.7%) of 15 patients had confirmed response: two complete and two partial responses (95% CI 7.8% to 55.1%). Median duration of response was 19.5 months. Median progression-free survival was 7.3 (2.5 to 10.1) months. In the expansion cohort, confirmed partial response was reported in 8 (42.1%) of 19 patients (95% CI 20.3% to 66.5%). Median duration of response was 7.5 (6.4 to not reached) months, median progression-free survival was 7.7 (2.0 to 16.7) months and median overall survival was 14.2 (4.5 to not reached) months. Fatigue (26.3% of patients), and transient and reversible myelosuppression (neutropenia, 78.9%; febrile neutropenia, 21.1%; thrombocytopenia, 15.8%) were the main grade 3 and higher toxicities in the expanded cohort.ConclusionsIn patients with recurrent advanced endometrial cancer treated with doxorubicin and lurbinectedin, response rates (42%) and duration of response (7.5 months) were favorable. Further evaluation of doxorubicin and lurbinectedin is warranted in this patient population.

Project description:IntroductionFew strategies exist for treatment of patients with small-cell lung cancer (SCLC) extended-stage after failure of first-line platinum-based chemotherapy. Lurbinectedin is a novel RNA-polymerase-II inhibitor investigated as a second-line therapy for SCLC. However, its efficacy and safety profile in real clinical practice remain to be determined.ObjectiveTo determine the efficacy and safety of lurbinectedin in real-life among patients with SCLC previously treated with first-line platinum-based chemotherapy.MethodsWe retrospectively evaluated patients who received at least one dose of lurbinectedin (3.2 mg/m2 ) between March 2020 and November 2021, in the pulmonary department of Bordeaux University Hospital. Endpoints were time to treatment discontinuation, progression-free survival, overall survival, and safety profile.ResultsThirteen patients were included. The median age was 60 years (range: 42-77), seven (54%) were females, nine (69%) having a performance status of 0-1. Lurbinectedin was given as second-line treatment before platinum rechallenge in four (31%) patients. After a mean follow-up of 4.1 months, the objective response rate (ORR) was 17%. The median time to treatment discontinuation (TTD) was 2.3 months (interquartile range [IQR], 1.2-3.6). The median progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) were, respectively, 1.9 (IQR, 0.1.8) and 4.1 (IQR, 2.0-3.5) months. No significant difference regarding TTD, PFS or OS was found in the two groups according to treatment history or according to chemotherapy-free intervall (CMI) 〈1 or 〉1 month. The most common adverse events (AEs) were asthenia, nausea, and anemia in nine (70%) patients. Grade 3 AEs were reported, fatigue, vomiting, nausea, anorexia, and neutropenia.ConclusionsLurbinectedin in real clinical practice could have had a lower efficacy than in phase II trial, but a better hematological and bioclinical tolerance than previously reported. Early relapse after platinum-based chemotherapy seems to have a lower response to lurbinectedin.
