Neratinib-Plus-Cetuximab in Quadruple-WT (KRAS, NRAS, BRAF, PIK3CA) Metastatic Colorectal Cancer Resistant to Cetuximab or Panitumumab: NSABP FC-7, A Phase Ib Study.

ABSTRACT:

Purpose

In metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC), HER2 (ERBB2) gene amplification is implicated in anti-EGFR therapy resistance. We sought to determine the recommended phase II dose (RP2D) and efficacy of neratinib, a pan-ERBB kinase inhibitor, combined with cetuximab, in patients with progressive disease (PD) on anti-EGFR treatment.

Patients and methods

Twenty-one patients with quadruple-wild-type, refractory mCRC enrolled in this 3+3 phase Ib study. Standard dosage cetuximab was administered with neratinib at 120 mg, 160 mg, 200 mg, and 240 mg/day orally in 28-day cycles. Samples were collected for molecular and pharmacokinetic studies.

Results

Sixteen patients were evaluable for dose-limiting toxicity (DLT). 240 mg was determined to be the RP2D wherein
