Response to the Combination of Osimertinib, Dabrafenib, and Trametinib in Leptomeningitis From EGFR-Mutant NSCLC With Acquired BRAF V600E Mutation: A Case Report.

ABSTRACT: Molecular sequencing after highly potent targeted gene inhibitors have suggested resistant tumors can display substantial heterogeneity. Among these various mechanisms of resistance, secondary mutations on targetable oncogenes have been identified. BRAF V600E, as a bypass mechanism on disease progression while receiving osimertinib therapy, has been reported in 3% of EGFR-mutated patients. Few case reports described the efficacy of the association of osimertinib and dabrafenib plus trametinib. Here, we report, for the first time, a case of a patient treated with this association, with a prolonged response on leptomeningeal metastasis. We also provide a comprehensive overview of the available literature on the efficacy and tolerance of this association.

Project description:BackgroundAcquired mutations within bypass pathways including BRAF V600E have been observed in post-osimertinib progression in EGFR-mutant non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). The combination of dabrafenib and trametinib is currently Food and Drug Administration-approved in BRAF V600E-mutant NSCLC. However, the application of osimertinib and dabrafenib and trametinib in the setting of acquired BRAF V600E mutation resistance from osimertinib therapy has not been clearly defined. In this case series, we evaluate the efficacy and tolerability of continued osimertinib in combination with dabrafenib and trametinib in BRAF V600E acquired EGFR-mutant NSCLC.Case descriptionWe retrospectively reviewed our clinical patient cohort at the University of California San Diego and patients from published case studies. Individuals who had metastatic EGFR-mutant lung adenocarcinoma treated with osimertinib at any line whom subsequently developed an acquired BRAF V600E mutation confirmed by next-generation sequencing were included for analysis. All patients had subsequent dabrafenib and trametinib in combination with osimertinib after detection of the novel BRAF V600E mutation post-osimertinib therapy. We identified three cases from our practice and nine cases from literature review. In our study cohort (n=12), we observed a median progression-free survival of 7 months on triplet therapy (osimertinib, dabrafenib, and trametinib) post progression on osimertinib, median overall survival of 46.2 months, and 60% partial response on first scan after treatment initiation. Dose reductions were required in 5/12 patients due to adverse events and treatment discontinuation in 2/12 patients. The most common adverse events were pyrexia and rash, and two cases of pneumonitis were observed (grade 1 & unreported grade).ConclusionsWe concluded that the addition of combination dabrafenib and trametinib can be tolerable and effective in patients with acquired BRAF V600E mutation post progression on osimertinib. This study supports molecular profiling at osimertinib progression and provides additional information on the appropriate sequencing of targeted therapies in the EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitor resistance setting.

Project description:BackgroundCombination BRAF and MEK inhibitor therapy is an active regimen in patients who have BRAF V600E-mutated tumors; however, the clinical efficacy of this therapy is limited by resistance. Preclinically, the addition of heat shock protein 90 (HSP90) inhibition improves the efficacy of BRAF inhibitor therapy in both BRAF inhibitor-sensitive and BRAF inhibitor-resistant mutant cell lines.MethodsCancer Therapy Evaluation Program study 9557 (ClinicalTrials.gov identifier NCT02097225) is a phase 1 study that was designed to assess the safety and efficacy of the small-molecule HSP90 inhibitor, AT13387, in combination with dabrafenib and trametinib in BRAF V600E/K-mutant solid tumors. Correlative analyses evaluated the expression of HSP90 client proteins and chaperones.ResultsTwenty-two patients with metastatic, BRAF V600E-mutant solid tumors were enrolled using a 3 + 3 design at four dose levels, and 21 patients were evaluable for efficacy assessment. The most common tumor type was colorectal cancer (N = 12). Dose-limiting toxicities occurred in one patient at dose level 3 and in one patient at dose level 4; specifically, myelosuppression and fatigue, respectively. The maximum tolerated dose was oral dabafenib 150 mg twice daily, oral trametinib 2 mg once daily, and intravenous AT13387 260 mg/m2 on days 1, 8, and 15. The best response was a partial response in two patients and stable disease in eight patients, with an overall response rate of 9.5% (90% exact confidence interval [CI], 2%-27%), a disease control rate of 47.6% (90% CI, 29%-67%), and a median overall survival of 5.1 months (90% CI, 3.4-7.6 months). There were no consistent proteomic changes associated with response or resistance, although responders did have reductions in BRAF expression, and epidermal growth factor receptor downregulation using HSP90 inhibition was observed in one patient who had colorectal cancer.ConclusionsHSP90 inhibition combined with BRAF/MEK inhibition was safe and produced evidence of modest disease control in a heavily pretreated population. Additional translational work may identify tumor types and resistance mechanisms that are most sensitive to this approach.

Project description:BackgroundCombined therapy with dabrafenib plus trametinib was approved in several countries for treatment of BRAF V600E-mutant anaplastic thyroid cancer (ATC) based on an earlier interim analysis of 23 response-assessable patients in the ATC cohort of the phase II Rare Oncology Agnostic Research (ROAR) basket study. We report an updated analysis describing the efficacy and safety of dabrafenib plus trametinib in the full ROAR ATC cohort of 36 patients with ∼4 years of additional study follow-up.Patients and methodsROAR (NCT02034110) is an open-label, nonrandomized, phase II basket study evaluating dabrafenib plus trametinib in BRAF V600E-mutant rare cancers. The ATC cohort comprised 36 patients with unresectable or metastatic ATC who received dabrafenib 150 mg twice daily plus trametinib 2 mg once daily orally until disease progression, unacceptable toxicity, or death. The primary endpoint was investigator-assessed overall response rate (ORR) per Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors version 1.1. Secondary endpoints were duration of response (DOR), progression-free survival (PFS), overall survival (OS), and safety.ResultsAt data cutoff (14 September 2020), median follow-up was 11.1 months (range, 0.9-76.6 months). The investigator-assessed ORR was 56% (95% confidence interval, 38.1% to 72.1%), including three complete responses; the 12-month DOR rate was 50%. Median PFS and OS were 6.7 and 14.5 months, respectively. The respective 12-month PFS and OS rates were 43.2% and 51.7%, and the 24-month OS rate was 31.5%. No new safety signals were identified with additional follow-up, and adverse events were consistent with the established tolerability of dabrafenib plus trametinib.ConclusionsThese updated results confirm the substantial clinical benefit and manageable toxicity of dabrafenib plus trametinib in BRAF V600E-mutant ATC. Dabrafenib plus trametinib notably improved long-term survival and represents a meaningful treatment option for this rare, aggressive cancer.

Project description:BackgroundPrevious analysis of COMBI-d (NCT01584648) demonstrated improved progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) with combination dabrafenib and trametinib versus dabrafenib monotherapy in BRAF V600E/K-mutant metastatic melanoma. This study was continued to assess 3-year landmark efficacy and safety after ≥36-month follow-up for all living patients.Patients and methodsThis double-blind, phase 3 study enrolled previously untreated patients with BRAF V600E/K-mutant unresectable stage IIIC or stage IV melanoma. Patients were randomized to receive dabrafenib (150 mg twice daily) plus trametinib (2 mg once daily) or dabrafenib plus placebo. The primary endpoint was PFS; secondary endpoints were OS, overall response, duration of response, safety, and pharmacokinetics.ResultsBetween 4 May and 30 November 2012, a total of 423 of 947 screened patients were randomly assigned to receive dabrafenib plus trametinib (n = 211) or dabrafenib monotherapy (n = 212). At data cut-off (15 February 2016), outcomes remained superior with the combination: 3-year PFS was 22% with dabrafenib plus trametinib versus 12% with monotherapy, and 3-year OS was 44% versus 32%, respectively. Twenty-five patients receiving monotherapy crossed over to combination therapy, with continued follow-up under the monotherapy arm (per intent-to-treat principle). Of combination-arm patients alive at 3 years, 58% remained on dabrafenib plus trametinib. Three-year OS with the combination reached 62% in the most favourable subgroup (normal lactate dehydrogenase and <3 organ sites with metastasis) versus only 25% in the unfavourable subgroup (elevated lactate dehydrogenase). The dabrafenib plus trametinib safety profile was consistent with previous clinical trial observations, and no new safety signals were detected with long-term use.ConclusionsThese data demonstrate that durable (≥3 years) survival is achievable with dabrafenib plus trametinib in patients with BRAF V600-mutant metastatic melanoma and support long-term first-line use of the combination in this setting.
