ABSTRACT: Background
Pyrotinib was well tolerated but its efficacy was unsatisfactory in patients with HER2-positive gastric cancer (GC) (NCT02378389). This study was to optimize the efficacy of pyrotinib.Methods
Human GC cell lines and AVATAR mice were used to explore the refractory mechanisms of pyrotinib. A pyrotinib-combined strategy was proposed, which was validated in preclinical AVATAR mouse and in clinical patients enrolled in a phase I clinical trial (NCT03480256).Results
Dysregulation of CCND1-CDK4/6-Rb axis might be the key to pyrotinib refractory. The strategy of pyrotinib combined with a CDK4/6 inhibitor SHR6390 was proposed and validated in preclinical AVATAR mouse, which was successfully verified in clinical patients. For five patients treated with pyrotinib plus SHR6390 who had available response evaluation, the best response was partial response in three patients, stable disease in one patient, and progressive disease in one patient. The progression-free survival times were 120, 200, 532, 109, and 57 days, respectively.Conclusions
This translational study suggests that pyrotinib combined with SHR6390 may serve as a promising strategy for patients with HER2-positive GC.Trial registration
