Abstract

Background: Vinflunine (VFL) is approved in Europe as second-line treatment of metastatic urothelial cancer after failure of platinum-containing therapy. We performed a systematic review and meta-analysis of real-world data (RWD) to assess utilization, efficacy and safety of VFL., Methods: We performed a MEDLINE search for the period of 1/1/2000-31/8/2017. Full-length articles providing post-marketing RWD on VFL in patients failing previous chemotherapy were eligible. Interventional clinical trials were excluded., Results: Ten studies with 797 patients were identified. According to pooled REs analysis, overall response rate was 19%, most frequent, all-grade toxicities were fatigue (41%), constipation (39%), nausea/vomiting (25%), and most prevalent Grade 3-4 toxicities were neutropenia (13%), anaemia (9%), fatigue (8%). Median OS was comparable to results reported in recent randomized studies., Conclusion: Our findings confirm the efficacy and safety of VFL in an unselected population and support the use of VFL in the changing treatment paradigm of relapsed mUC., (Copyright © 2019 Elsevier B.V.

Abstract

Importance: The combination of fluorouracil, oxaliplatin, and irinotecan plus bevacizumab (FOLFOXIRI-Bev) is an established and effective first-line chemotherapy regimen for metastatic colorectal cancer. However, resection rates of metastases and overall survival with this schedule have never been systematically evaluated in published studies including, but not limited to, the TRIBE (TRIplet plus BEvacizumab) trial., Objective: To assess the clinical efficacy of FOLFOXIRI-Bev, including outcomes and rates of surgical conversions., Data Sources: A systematic review was conducted in October 2016 in concordance with the PRISMA guidelines of PubMed, the Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials, SCOPUS, Web of Science, Google Scholar, CINAHL, Ovid, and EMBASE using the terms FOLFOXIRI and bevacizumab and (colorectal cancer)., Study Selection: Clinical trials, retrospective case series, and prospective case series that used FOLFOXIRI-Bev for the treatment of initially unresectable metastatic colorectal cancer in humans were included. Individual case reports and retrospective case series with fewer than 10 patients were excluded., Data Extraction and Synthesis: Data were extracted independently by 2 reviewers on a predesigned, standardized form. Ultimately, data were aggregated to obtain the pooled effect size of efficacy, according to the random-effects model and weighted for the number of patients included in each trial., Main Outcomes and Measures: Median overall survival and progression-free survival, overall response rates, and rates of R0 surgical conversions and overall surgical conversions., Results: Eleven FOLFOXIRI-Bev studies published between 2010 and 2016 met the inclusion criteria and were pooled for analysis. The studies included 889 patients, with 877 patients clinically evaluable for overall response rates. The objective response rate to FOLFOXIRI-Bev was 69% (95% CI, 65%-72%; I2 = 25%). The rate of overall surgical conversions was 39.1% (95% CI, 26.9%-52.8%), and the rate of R0 surgical conversions was 28.1% (95% CI, 18.1%-40.8%). Median pooled overall survival was 30.2 months (95% CI, 26.5-33.7 months) in 6 trials with data available, and progression-free survival was 12.4 months (95% CI, 10.0-14.3 months) in 9 trials with data available. In meta-regression analysis, variables significantly associated with conversion surgery were disease limited to the liver and a higher median number of cycles (close to 12)., Conclusions and Relevance: For patients with surgically unresectable metastatic colorectal cancer, FOLFOXIRI-Bev is associated with a significant overall response rate. Such an effective regimen leads to a probability of surgical conversion of distant metastases approaching 40%, with more than one-fourth of patients having an R0 resection.

Abstract

Introduction: Neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy (CTRT) is the current standard of care for treatment of locally advanced cancer of the esophagus or gastroesophageal junction. Many efforts have been made over the last years to identify the best chemotherapy and radiotherapy combination regimen, but specific randomized trials addressing this issue are still lacking. Areas covered: A systematic review of the literature was performed searching in PubMed all published studies of combinations CTRT regimens for operable or unresectable esophageal cancer to describe activity and toxicity. Studies considered were prospective series or clinical phase II-III trials including at least 40 patients and published in English language. Expert commentary: Long-term results of CROSS trial have established RT combined with carboplatin plus paclitaxel chemotherapy as the preferred neoadjuvant treatment option for both squamous and adenocarcinoma of the esophagus. More effective multimodal treatment strategies integrating novel biological agents including immunotherapy and based on an extensive molecular tumor characterization are eagerly awaited.

Abstract

Combination of docetaxel, cisplatin, and 5-fluorouracil (DCF) is an active but not well-tolerated regimen for advanced gastric cancer (GC) with standard 3-weekly doses. Several modified schedules (mDCFs) have been designed to reduce acute toxicities and improve feasibility as first-line therapy in patients with metastatic GC. The objective of this systematic review was to evaluate overall survival (OS), progression-free survival (PFS), overall response rate (ORR), and grade (G) greater than or equal to 3 adverse event of mDCF chemotherapy in this setting. MEDLINE, SCOPUS, Embase, Web of Science, LILACS, CINAHL, Google Scholar, and the Cochrane Library were searched for studies with mDCF schedules in advanced GC. Pooled median OS, PFS, ORR (the primary endpoints), and G3 or G4 adverse events (secondary endpoints) were presented according to random effect model. Twenty-four studies were included for a total of 1311 patients, with weekly or biweekly (n=11) and reduced doses 3-weekly (n=13) schedules. The median pooled PFS and OS were 7.2 months [95% confidence interval (CI): 5.9-8.8] and 12.3 months (95% CI: 10.6-14.3), respectively. Among 23 studies with available data for ORR, the pooled result was 49% (95% CI: 43.4-54.4). The incidence of grade 3/4 neutropenia, thrombocytopenia, anemia, febrile neutropenia, stomatitis, diarrhea, nausea+vomiting, and neurotoxicity were 29.1, 5.6, 8.9, 7.6, 6.6, 4.9, and 9.9%, respectively. mDCF chemotherapy with splitted weekly or biweekly schedules, or reduced 3-weekly doses, is a very effective and well-tolerated regimen in metastatic GC. By providing a 50% ORR, such regimens may be particularly indicated for younger and fit patients for cytoreductive purposes (conversion therapy) or in case of symptomatic tumor burden.

Abstract

Purpose: To evaluate the efficacy and safety of dose-dense TCF in elderly (≥65 years) compared to younger patients., Methods: Safety and efficacy data relative to 119 consecutive patients with locally advanced or metastatic gastric cancer treated at our institution and enrolled in different phase II trials were retrospectively collected. All patients were treatment-naive and received docetaxel 70 mg/m2 day 1, cisplatin 60 mg/m2 day 1, l-folinic acid 100 mg/m2 days 1-2, followed by 5-fluorouracil 400 mg/m2 bolus days 1-2, and then 600 mg/m2 as a 22-hour continuous infusion days 1-2, every 14 days, plus pegfilgrastim 6 mg on day 3. Sixty patients (50%) aged ≥65 years received the same schedule with a dose reduction by 30%., Results: A total of 86% of patients were evaluable for response and all for toxicity. In patients aged ≥65 years, we observed an overall response rate of 51%. Median overall survival was 11.2 (95% confidence interval [CI] 7.3-15.1) and 11.8 months (95% CI 9.2-16.2) in elderly and younger patients, respectively. In the elderly patients, the most frequent grade 3-4 toxicities were neutropenia (13%), leukopenia (7%), thrombocytopenia (18%), anemia (3%), and febrile neutropenia (8%); in the younger patients, neutropenia (56%), leucopenia (31%), thrombocytopenia (22%), anemia (15%), and febrile neutropenia (15%)., Conclusions: Elderly patients can be safely treated with a dose-dense TCF regimen with a 30% dose reduction achieving similar efficacy results as younger patients with lesser toxicity.

Abstract

The aim of this study was to explore the efficacy and toxicities of a combined regimen of bevacizumab plus immunotherapy and chemotherapy (BIC) and the circulating T regulatory cells (Treg) in metastatic renal cell cancer (mRCC). Nephrectomized mRCC patients were enrolled into a multicenter single-arm dose-finding study with five escalated dose levels of chemotherapy with intravenous gemcitabine and 5-fluorouracil associated with fixed intravenous doses of bevacizumab, subcutaneous low doses of interleukin-2, and interferon-α-2a. An expanded cohort (phase II study) was treated at the recommended dose for additional safety and efficacy information according to minimax Simon two-stage design. Blood samples for Treg were collected and evaluated by fluorescence-activated cell sorting (FACS) analysis on cycle 1. Fifty-one patients were entered to receive one of five dose levels. Median age was 58 years (male 67 %, pretreated 49 %): 15 patients were low risk according to Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center (MSKCC) criteria, while 27 and nine were respectively intermediate- and high-risk patients. More frequent grade 3 and 4 toxicities included nonfebrile neutropenia, thrombocytopenia, and fever. Among patients evaluable for response (49), 29.5 % had partial response and 37 % stable disease. Overall median time to progression and median overall survival were 8.8 and 22.67 months, respectively. We observed a rapid increase in the percentage of Treg after immunotherapy and a reduction after bevacizumab only in patient who obtained a partial response or stable disease. The BIC was feasible, well tolerated, and shown interesting activity. Further studies are needed to explore if Treg could have a role in clinical response in mRCC treated with bevacizumab.

Abstract

Background: Potentially myelosuppressive doublet and triplet chemotherapy combination regimens are considered the most active treatments in gastric cancer. This multicenter prospective observational study was designed to gain insight into the chemotherapy regimens being used in Europe and to evaluate neutropenia management in patients identified as at high risk for febrile neutropenia (FN)., Methods: Eligible patients had gastric cancer, were scheduled for ≥ 3 cycles of myelosuppressive chemotherapy, and had an investigator-assessed overall FN risk ≥ 20%. Data were collected for up to ten cycles. The primary endpoint was the proportion of patients who received granulocyte colony stimulating factor (G-CSF) primary prophylaxis (defined as G-CSF initiated on days 1-7 of cycle 1). Secondary endpoints included FN incidence, chemotherapy administration, and G-CSF use., Results: Of 199 patients who met the eligibility criteria and started at least one cycle of chemotherapy, mean age was 63 years, 76% were men, 83% had an ECOG score of 0 or 1, 54% had metastatic disease, and 24% had received prior chemotherapy. A total of 27 different backbone regimens were given; the most common regimen was modified docetaxel, cisplatin, and 5-fluorouracil (DCF). Despite all patients having been identified as having a ≥ 20% FN risk, only 70 (35%) received G-CSF primary prophylaxis. FN occurred in 14 patients overall (7%). Most FN events occurred in patients who received DCF/modified DCF (9/14 events, 64%)., Conclusions: The results of this study reveal a high use of myelotoxic treatment regimens in gastric cancer in Europe and low adherence to clinical practice guidelines for the use of primary and secondary G-CSF prophylaxis for FN.

Abstract

Background: Neoangiogenesis is particularly abundant in small-cell lung cancer (SCLC) and is associated with poor prognosis. As a result of the promising nature of phase II studies, a randomized phase III trial was designed to assess the efficacy of adding bevacizumab to first-line chemotherapy with cisplatin-etoposide for treatment of extensive disease SCLC. We present the treatment rationale and study design of GOIRC trial (FARM6PMFJM study), a multicenter randomized phase III study, supported by AIFA (Agenzia Italiana del Farmaco)., Patients and Methods: Patients are randomized to receive either cisplatin 25 mg/m(2) and etoposide 100 mg/m(2) intravenously on days 1 to 3 (control arm) or the same chemotherapy combined with bevacizumab 7.5 mg/kg intravenously on day 1 (experimental arm). Treatment is repeated every 3 weeks and for a maximum of 6 courses. Patients randomized to the experimental arm in the absence of disease progression after 6 cycles continue bevacizumab alone until progression or for a maximum of 18 courses. Tumor assessment is done every 3 cycles. Major eligibility criteria are: age ≥ 18 years; histologically or cytologically documented extensive disease SCLC; Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance status ≤ 2; adequate hematological, hepatic and renal functions; no history of grade 2 or higher hemoptysis; and no evidence of tumor cavitation. The primary end point of this study is overall survival. Secondary end points include response rate, time to progression, and toxicity., Conclusion: An interim futility analysis was performed by an Independent Data Monitoring Committee in September 2013 and the trial obtained approval to continue. As of July 31, 2014, 171 patients of 206 planned have been randomized., (Copyright © 2015 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.)

Abstract

There is currently no standard therapy to reduce the recurrence rate after surgery for renal cell carcinoma (RCC). The aim of this study was to assess efficacy and safety of adjuvant treatment with low doses of interleukin-2 (IL-2)+interferon-α (IFN-α) in operable RCC. The patients were randomized 1:1 to receive a 4-week cycle of low-dose IL-2+IFN-α or observation after primary surgery for RCC. Treatment cycles were repeated every 4 months for the first 2 years and every 6 months for the subsequent 3 years. The primary endpoint was recurrence-free survival (RFS); safety; and overall survival (OS) were secondary endpoints. ClinicalTrials.gov registration number was NCT00502034. 303/310 randomized patients (156 in the immunotherapy arm and 154 in the observation group) were evaluable at the intention-to-treat analyses. The 2 arms were well balanced. At a median follow-up of 52 months (range, 12-151 mo), RFS, and OS were similar, with an estimated hazard ratio (HR) of 0.84 [95% confidence interval (CI), 0.54-1.31; P=0.44] and of 1.07 (95% CI, 0.64-1.79; P=0.79), respectively in the 2 groups. Unplanned, subgroup analysis showed a positive effect of the treatment for patients with age 60 years and younger, pN0, tumor grades 1-2, and pT3a stage. Among patients with the combined presence of ≥ 2 of these factors, immunotherapy had a positive effect on RFS (HR=0.44; 95% CI, 0.24-0.82; P ≤ 0.01), whereas patients with <2 factors in the treatment arm exhibited a significant poorer OS (HR=2.27; 95% CI, 1.03-5.03 P=0.037). Toxicity of immunotherapy was mild and limited to World Health Organization grade 1-2 in most cases. Adjuvant immunotherapy with IL-2+IFN-α showed no RFS or OS improvement in RCC patients who underwent radical surgery. The results of subset analysis here presented are only hypothesis generating.

Abstract

Background: We previously studied a dose-dense TCF (TCF-dd) regimen demonstrating its feasibility and an activity comparable to epirubicin-based chemotherapy and TCF q3w in terms of overall survival and time to progression (TTP). We report here the final results of a phase II study of chemotherapy with a modified TCF-dd regimen in locally advanced or metastatic gastric cancer (MGC)., Methods and Study Design: Patients with histologically confirmed measurable MGC, not previously treated for advanced disease, received docetaxel 70 mg/m(2) day 1, cisplatin 60 mg/m(2) day 1, l-folinic acid 100 mg/m(2) days 1 and 2, followed by 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) 400 mg/m(2) bolus days 1 and 2, and then 600 mg/m(2) as a 22-h continuous infusion days 1 and 2, every 14 days, plus pegfilgrastim 6 mg on day 3. Patients aged ≥65 years received the same schedule with a dose reduction of 30 %., Results: Study duration: December 2007-November 2010. Forty-six consecutive patients were enrolled (78 % male, 22 % female; median age, 66 years, range, 38-76 years; ECOG PS: 0, 48 %, 1, 46 %). Primary endpoint was overall response rate (ORR). A median of four cycles (range, one to six) was administered. Forty-three patients were evaluated for response (93.5 %) and all for toxicity: 3 complete response (CR), 25 partial response (PR), 10 stable disease (SD), and 5 progressive disease (PD) were observed, for an ORR by intention to treat (ITT) of 61 % (95 % CI 47-75). Median overall survival (OS) was 17.63 months (95 % CI, 13.67-20.67); median progression-free survival was 8.9 months (95 % CI, 6.5-13.4). Twenty-one patients (46.0 %) were treated at full doses without any delay, thus respecting the dose-dense criterion. Most frequent grade 3-4 toxicities were neutropenia (20 %), leukopenia (4 %), thrombocytopenia (2 %), anemia (2 %), febrile neutropenia (6 %), asthenia (22 %), diarrhea (4 %), nausea/vomiting (11 %), and hypokalemia (6 %). Overall, TCF-dd was shown to be safe., Conclusions: The TCF-dd regimen in locally advanced or MGC is confirmed to be feasible and very active and needs to be further tested in randomized studies.

Abstract

There is conflicting evidence on the predictive role of KRAS status when cetuximab is added to oxaliplatin-based regimens. This study investigated the impact of KRAS, NRAS, BRAF, PI3KCA and TP53 status on outcome of elderly metastatic colorectal cancer patients enrolled in TEGAFOX-E (cetuximab, oxaliplatin and oral uracil/ftorafur--UFT) phase II study. Twenty-eight patients were enrolled and all were evaluable for safety and activity. Twenty-three specimens were analysed for KRAS, BRAF, NRAS, PI3KCA and TP53 mutational status by means of polymerase chain reaction and correlated with objective response, progression-free survival and overall survival. An evident increase of response rate was noted in KRAS/NRAS wild-type cases (70 versus 33%, P = 0.198). KRAS/NRAS wild-type status showed an independent association with a longer progression-free survival (44 versus 9 weeks, P = 0.009). Considering the combined assessment of BRAF, KRAS/NRAS and TP53, a trend towards an increase of response rate was noted in patients without mutations (83 versus 33%, P = 0.063). Moreover, patients with all wild-type genes had significantly longer progression-free survival than patients with any mutation (48 versus 10 weeks, P = 0.007). As a single biomarker, only KRAS/NRAS proteins maintained an independent value for outcome prediction. Patients with KRAS/NRAS, BRAF and TP53 wild-type tumours could derive the maximal benefits from treatment with cetuximab, oxaliplatin and UFT.

Abstract

Background: Therapeutic approach for patients with metastatic breast cancer (MBC) is still controversial. This study was conducted to assess the efficacy and safety of bevacizumab in combination with docetaxel plus capecitabine as first-line treatment for MBC. The feasibility of bevacizumab maintenance therapy in this setting was also evaluated., Patients and Methods: In this single-arm, multicenter phase II study, patients received bevacizumab 15 mg/kg and docetaxel 60 mg/m(2) on day 1, plus capecitabine 900 mg/m(2) twice daily on days 1-14 every 21 days. Treatment was administered for up to 6 cycles, then bevacizumab continued until progressive disease. The primary end point was progression-free survival (PFS); secondary end points were tumor response rate, overall survival, and toxicity., Results: Seventy-nine eligible patients were treated with bevacizumab in combination with docetaxel plus capecitabine. The overall response rate was 61 %, with a complete response rate of 8 % and a median duration of response of 10 months. At a median follow-up of 28 months, the median PFS was 11 months. Fifty-two (65 %) patients received bevacizumab maintenance therapy for a median duration of 7 months (range 1 to 33+). Neutropenia was the most common grade 3-4 toxicity (28.1 % of patients), and two fatal adverse events occurred (septic shock and gastrointestinal perforation)., Conclusions: Bevacizumab in combination with docetaxel and capecitabine demonstrates significant activity and quite acceptable toxicity profile as first-line treatment of MBC. Subsequent maintenance therapy with bevacizumab is feasible for a long period of stable disease. Results deserve confirmation.

Abstract

Purpose: To compare efficacy of pemetrexed versus pemetrexed plus carboplatin in pretreated patients with advanced non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC)., Patients and Methods: Patients with advanced NSCLC, in progression during or after first-line platinum-based chemotherapy, were randomly assigned to receive pemetrexed (arm A) or pemetrexed plus carboplatin (arm B). Primary end point was progression-free survival (PFS). A preplanned pooled analysis of the results of this study with those of the NVALT7 study was carried out to assess the impact of carboplatin added to pemetrexed in terms of overall survival (OS)., Results: From July 2007 to October 2009, 239 patients (arm A, n = 120; arm B, n = 119) were enrolled. Median PFS was 3.6 months for arm A versus 3.5 months for arm B (hazard ratio [HR], 1.05; 95% CI, 0.81 to 1.36; P = .706). No statistically significant differences in response rate, OS, or toxicity were observed. A total of 479 patients were included in the pooled analysis. OS was not improved by the addition of carboplatin to pemetrexed (HR, 90; 95% CI, 0.74 to 1.10; P = .316; P heterogeneity = .495). In the subgroup analyses, the addition of carboplatin to pemetrexed in patients with squamous tumors led to a statistically significant improvement in OS from 5.4 to 9 months (adjusted HR, 0.58; 95% CI, 0.37 to 0.91; P interaction test = .039)., Conclusion: Second-line treatment of advanced NSCLC with pemetrexed plus carboplatin does not improve survival outcomes as compared with single-agent pemetrexed. The benefit observed with carboplatin addition in squamous tumors may warrant further investigation.

Abstract

Background and Objective: First-line bevacizumab-based therapy has been shown to improve outcomes in patients with advanced non-squamous non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC). The recent international phase IV SAiL study (a Study of Avastin [bevacizumab] in combination with platinum-containing chemotherapy in patients with advanced or recurrent non-squamous cell Lung cancer) evaluated the safety and efficacy of bevacizumab combined with standard chemotherapy regimens in routine clinical practice. Here we report the results of a subanalysis of baseline characteristics and efficacy data for Italian patients enrolled in SAiL., Methods: In the SAiL study, patients with untreated locally advanced, metastatic or recurrent non-squamous NSCLC received bevacizumab (7.5 or 15 mg/kg) every 3 weeks plus chemotherapy for up to six cycles, followed by single-agent bevacizumab until disease progression. Efficacy was assessed in terms of time to disease progression (TTP) and overall survival (OS)., Results: The Italian intent-to-treat population comprised 215 patients from a SAiL population of 2212 patients. At baseline, Italian patients tended to have less advanced disease than the overall population. Thus, the proportion of patients at enrollment with tumour stage IIIb and IV was 23.7 and 76.3 %, respectively, for the Italian population versus 19.7 and 80.3 % for the whole SAiL population. In addition, a higher proportion of Italian patients had an Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance status of 0 (72.6 vs. 37.2 %) and the prevalence of co-morbid conditions was lower in Italian patients (59.5 % of Italian patients reported a co-morbid condition and 60.0 % were receiving non-oncological treatment compared with 73.3 and 73.4 %, respectively, of SAiL patients overall). The mean exposures to bevacizumab and to chemotherapy were comparable between the Italian patient group and overall patient population, although cisplatin doublets were more commonly employed in Italian patients whereas carboplatin doublets were more commonly employed in the overall SAiL population. The median TTP and OS times for Italian and SAiL populations were comparable (TTP, 7.8 months vs. 7.8 months; OS, 14.8 months vs. 14.6 months)., Conclusion: The results of this subanalysis of the SAiL study of bevacizumab treatment in routine clinical practice suggest that Italian oncologists tend to prescribe bevacizumab to a selected population of patients with less advanced disease than is the case in the overall population. Nevertheless, the first-line use of bevacizumab in combination with chemotherapy offers clinical benefits to Italian patients with advanced or recurrent non-squamous NSCLC.

Abstract

Aims and Background: The exact mechanism by which recombinant interleukine-2 and interferon-α modulate the immunological response, inducing long-term responses in metastatic renal cell carcinoma, is still not clear. The aim of the study was to analyze the modifications in peripheral blood lymphocytes during cycles of low-dose immunotherapy as a marker of the biological response to the treatment in 146 patients with renal cell carcinoma (advanced and localized disease)., Methods and Study Design: Peripheral blood lymphocytes were evaluated before and after every cycle of treatment., Results: We found a statistically significant overall difference between pre- and post-cycle values (mean increase of 39%). The differences between pre- and post-cycle lymphocyte counts for each cycle were significant. Also, the post-cycle lymphocyte count of each cycle remained higher than the baseline value. Furthermore, pre-cycle lymphocyte counts of each cycle were still higher than the baseline value, with no difference between a pre-cycle lymphocyte mean value and the other one (except that between the first and second cycle). From the end of each cycle, but before starting the next one, the absolute value of lymphocytes fell on the average by 15-30%, concurring with the fact that, even starting from pre-cycle values higher than baseline, the immune system remains sensitive to chronically repeated stimulation by immunotherapy. We also found that non-metastatic patients had a higher number of peripheral blood lymphocytes than metastatic patients, whereas the latter had a lower immune response to therapy., Conclusions: The results support the idea that "maintenance" immunotherapy may not develop resistance over time in terms of biological response and thus may have a role as chronic therapy in combination with other drugs such as target therapy. We suppose that the immune system of patients with metastases is in a state of relative impairment, resulting in less sensitivity to immunostimulating agents.

Abstract

Purpose: To evaluate a new strategy of two sequential, intensified chemotherapy regimens in metastatic gastric cancer., Patients and Methods: Chemo-naïve patients with metastatic gastric cancer were enrolled to receive 4 cycles of TCF-dd (docetaxel initially 85 mg/m(2) and cisplatin initially 75 mg/m(2) on day 1 [later modified due to toxicity: 70 and 60 mg/m(2) respectively], l-folinic acid 100 mg/m(2) on days 1 and 2, 5-fluorouracil 400 mg/m(2) bolus and then 600 mg/m(2) as a 22 h continuous infusion on day 1 and 2, every 14 days). Subsequently, patients with CR, PR or SD received 4 cycles of COFFI (oxaliplatin 85 mg/m(2), irinotecan 140 mg/m(2), l-folinic acid 200 mg/m(2), 5-fluorouracil bolus 400 mg/m(2) on day 1 followed by 2,400 mg/m(2) as a 48 h continuous infusion, every 14 days). In both regimens pegfilgrastim 6 mg subcutaneously on day 3 was included., Results: Forty consecutive patients were enrolled. TCF-dd regimen achieved an ORR of 55% (95% CI, 40-70). Twenty-three patients proceeded to COFFI. After this regimen the ORR was then increased to 60% (95% CI, 45-75). Among the 21 patients treated with TCF-dd after the protocol amendments, main grade 3-4 toxicities were: neutropenia (29%), thrombocytopenia (19%), asthenia (24%) and diarrhea (14%). COFFI caused grade 3-4 neutropenia (all not febrile) and diarrhea in 35% and 17% of patients respectively., Conclusions: A sequential strategy with TCF-dd followed by COFFI is very active and may be of special interest in selected patients.

Abstract

The aim of this study was to look for the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of gemcitabine and 5-fluorouracil in a new regimen also containing the antiangiogenic bevacizumab and immunotherapy (IT) for the treatment of metastatic renal cell cancer. The primary objective of this multicenter dose-finding study was to establish the MTD of chemotherapy (CT) in combination with fixed doses of IT and bevacizumab. The secondary objective was to assess the combination's activity. Five escalated dose levels of CT with intravenous gemcitabine and 5-fluorouracil (days 1 and 8 every 28 d), were associated together with intravenous bevacizumab (10 mg/kg on days 1 and 15 every 28 d), subcutaneous interleukin-2 (1 MIU/m² bid on days 8, 9, 15, 16, and 1 MIU/m²/d on days 10-12 and 17-19), and interferon-α-2a (3 MIU on days 10, 12, 17, 19). Of the 27 enrolled patients, 59% had been pretreated. The MTD was not reached. The highest CT dose studied was gemcitabine 1000 mg/m² and 5-fluorouracil 600 mg/m². More frequent grade 3 to 4 toxicities included neutropenia (63%), thrombocytopenia (33%), and fever (26%). The response rate was 33% according to the Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors. This is the first study that explored the feasibility and safety of combined bevacizumab, IT, and CT in metastatic renal cell cancer. The activity of this regimen is interesting and its efficacy warrants further trials.

Abstract

Aims and Background: Previous studies have reported that in early breast cancer, lymphomas and advanced bladder cancer, dose-dense chemotherapy may be more effective than conventional treatments. In metastatic gastric cancer, chemotherapy with docetaxel, cisplatin and 5-fluorouracil (TCF) q3w is very active, and, even though there is no international consensus on the subject, it is the regimen of choice of many European centers as first-line chemotherapy in this subset of patients. Based on these studies, we tested for the first time the feasibility and activity of an intensified dose-dense TCF regimen (q2w) modifying the 5-fluorouracil infusion with 1-folinic acid/5-fluorouracil according to the "De Gramont regimen"., Methods and Study Design: Patients with histologically confirmed measurable metastatic gastric cancer, ECOG performance status or=65 years received the same schedule with a dose reduction of 30%., Results: Thirty-two consecutive patients were enrolled (63% male, 37% female); median age, 64 years (range, 40-81). A median of 4 cycles (range, 1-7) per patient was administered. Eleven of 32 patients (34%) required a dose reduction, mostly for hematological grade III-IV toxicity and severe asthenia. Twelve patients (38%) completed the first 4 cycles of therapy within 7 weeks, thereby finishing without delay the initially planned dose-density schedule. Twenty-eight patients were evaluated for response (1 early suspension after the first cycle because of toxicity, 3 deaths before response evaluation due to progression of disease). There were 3 complete responses (9%), 15 partial responses (47%), 7 stable disease (22%) and 3 progression of disease (9%), for an overall response rate, by intention to treat, of 56% (95% CI, 39-73). The most frequent grade 3-4 toxicities were: neutropenia (53%), thrombocytopenia (34%), anemia (16%) febrile neutropenia (22%), asthenia (38%) and diarrhea (19%). Median time to progression was 9.1 months (95% CI, 6.0-12.2); median overall survival was 10.1 months (95% CI, 8.8-12.2)., Conclusions: A dose-dense TCF regimen in metastatic gastric cancer is feasible, with activity comparable to previous results achieved with epirubicin-based chemotherapy and TCF q3wk in terms of overall survival and time to progression, and deserves to be further tested in randomized phase III studies.

Abstract

Several phase II trials have shown that gemcitabine and fluoropyrimidines have marginal but definite activity in patients with metastatic renal cell cancer (mRCC). We retrospectively analyzed the 193 mRCC patients consecutively seen in our institutions during the last 11 years, of whom 39 were treated with chemotherapy (CT): 16 were treated with CT alone (gemcitabine and 5-fluorouracil) and 23 with the same regimen plus low dose of interleukin-2 and interferon-alpha. The main end point of the analysis was to estimate response rate and time to progression (TTP); the secondary end point was to evaluate overall survival (OS) and toxicity. Overall TTP was 3.2 months (95% confidence interval: 2.22-4.18). Three patients (7.7%) achieved a partial response and 10 (25.6%) stable disease. Median OS was 9.23 months (95% confidence interval: 7.16-11.31) and the 1-year survival rate was 40.6%. Although not statistically significant, the response and disease control rates were better in the pretreated patients (8% vs. 7% and 44% vs. 14%), with a favorable trend for TTP and OS (4.9 vs. 3.2 mo and 12.9 vs. 4.2 mo). Grade 3 to 4 toxicities included hematologic toxicity and depressed mood. OS was strongly influenced by performance status, the presence of brain metastasis, and response after 3 cycles of therapy. In these mRCC patients, both CT and chemoimmunotherapy showed modest but definite activity and a regimen CT-based should be offered to patients with progressive mRCC. The association of these treatments with antiangiogenetic agents should be tested in future trials.

Abstract

Aims and Background: Previous phase II studies have reported that combinations of oxaliplatin, folinic acid and 5-fluorouracil or irinotecan, folinic acid and 5-fluorouracil are associated with good efficacy and an acceptable safety profile in metastatic gastric cancer. The aim of this study was to evaluate chemotherapy with oxaliplatin, folinic acid, 5-fluorouracil and irinotecan (COFFI regimen) in metastatic gastric cancer., Methods: Patients received oxaliplatin (85 mg/m2 d 1), irinotecan (140 mg/m2 d 1), and L-folinic acid (200 mg/m2 d 1) followed by 5-fluorouracil bolus (400 mg/m2 d 1) and then 5-fluorouracil (2,400 mg/m2 48-h continuous infusion), every 14 days., Results: Seventeen patients with metastatic gastric cancer were enrolled. Eight patients were pretreated for advanced disease. Of the 9 chemo-naïve patients, 8 were evaluated for response (1 patient was lost to follow-up): one complete response, 5 partial responses and 2 progressions of disease occurred, giving an overall response rate, at intention-to-treat analysis, of 67%. Of the 8 pretreated patients, 6 were evaluated for response (2 patients had nonmeasurable disease): one partial response, 2 disease stabilizations and 3 progressions of disease occurred, giving an overall response rate, at intention-to-treat analysis, of 12%. Median progression-free and overall survival in chemo-naïve patients were 8.2 and 10.2 months, respectively, and in pretreated patients 2.7 and 3 months. Grade 3-4 neutropenia occurred in 55% of chemo-naïve patients. Thrombocytopenia, and anemia were observed in 18% and 29%, respectively. Grade 3 nausea/vomiting occurred in 12% and grade 3 diarrhea in 6%., Conclusions: The COFFI regimen is active and well tolerated, therefore phase III studies are warranted.

Abstract

Aims and Background: We previously designed and tested combinations made up of the CMF agents, two at a time by rotation, and of doxorubicin or epirubicin. The present study was aimed to similarly test new combinations made up of the CMF agents, two at a time by rotation, and paclitaxel or docetaxel., Methods: The doses of each taxane were escalated with the objective of reaching at least a single dose level of 90 mg/m2 of paclitaxel and 45 mg/m2 of docetaxel on days 1 and 8 of each four-week cycle. Thirty-two patients with advanced breast carcinoma were randomized to receive increasing doses of paclitaxel (45, 65, 80, 90 and 100 mg/m2) or docetaxel (30, 35, 40, 45 and 50 mg/m2) together with the CMF agents at the same dose as that used in the conventional regimen. Each dose level was administered to a triplet of patients. No direct comparison of the two taxanes was made., Results: The fourth dose level was reached for paclitaxel and docetaxel. The most important toxicities were grade 4 neutropenia and grade 1-2 nausea/vomiting and stomatitis. The objective response rate, assessed only after the third cycle at any dose level, was 31% (95% CI, 15-47%)., Conclusions: The combinations of the CMF agents (two at a time in rotation) with paclitaxel (90 mg/m2) or docetaxel (45 mg/m2) on days 1 and 8 of each four-week cycle are feasible and lead to definite signs of therapeutic activity, and the side effects are generally mild. Further studies are therefore warranted.

Abstract

Objectives: The aim of this study was to describe the patterns of breast cancer relapse and the factors influencing therapeutic choices in an unselected postmenopausal population., Methods: Five hundred and thirty-nine patients were enrolled between October 1999 and March 2001. The majority (92.6%) underwent surgery for the primary tumor: there was no difference between general and university hospitals in terms of the type of mastectomy, but a slight difference was found between Southern and Northern Centers., Results: At the time of first relapse, 61.6% of the patients had a good Karnofsky performance status. The median disease-free interval (DFI) was 34 months. More than half of the patients (62.3%) presented a single metastasis. Metastatic disease was treated with chemotherapy in 64.8% of cases (alone in 44.1%, and in combination with hormone therapy in 20.1%), hormone therapy alone was given in 30.8% of cases. The main reasons for choosing chemotherapy were age (31%), standard guidelines (19.4%) and the site of metastatic disease (14.3%), and those for selecting hormone therapy were age (26.6%), site of relapse (19.3%), standard guidelines (19.2%), biological tumor characteristics (14.3%) and the DFI (11.1%). Taxane-containing treatments accounted for 46.1% of the chemotherapies, whereas letrozole was the preferred hormone (41.2%)., Conclusion: The first relapse of breast cancer is often single, at bone or viscera, and mainly diagnosed by instrumental screening examinations. The preferred chemo- and hormone therapies are taxane-containing regimens and letrozole, respectively., (Copyright 2004 S. Karger AG, Basel)

Abstract

This study aimed to verify whether the advantage in terms of response rate and survival of dacarbazine plus tamoxifen over dacarbazine alone in metastatic malignant melanoma reported in a previous randomized trial was due to a specific interaction of dacarbazine with tamoxifen. A total of 125 patients with locoregional or disseminated malignant melanoma were randomized to receive dacarbazine (250 mg/m(2) days 1-5 every 3 weeks) plus tamoxifen (arm A) or vindesine (3 mg/m(2) every week for 6 weeks, then every 2 weeks) plus tamoxifen (arm B). Of the 125 randomized patients, 57 and 59 were evaluable in arm A and B, respectively. The complete response rates were the same (2% versus 2%) and the complete plus partial response rates were similar (11% versus 14%) in the two groups. There was no significant difference in survival. Neither response or survival correlated with gender. In conclusion, when combined with tamoxifen, dacarbazine does not have a specific effect on response or survival compared with vindesine. The lower response rate to dacarbazine plus tamoxifen (11%) than that reported in the previous trial (28%) might be explained by actual differences in patient and/or participating centre accrual characteristics in the presence of apparently identical eligibility criteria.

Abstract

We compared a relatively short regimen of monochemotherapy with epirubicin versus polychemotherapy with CMF (cyclophosphamide, methotrexate, 5-fluorouracil) as adjuvant treatment for stage I and II breast cancer patients. 348 patients with oestrogen receptor negative (ER-) node negative and ER- or ER+ node-positive with <10 nodes were accrued. CMF was given intravenously (i.v.) on days 1 and 8, every 4 weeks, for six courses; epirubicin was given weekly for 4 months. Postmenopausal patients received tamoxifen for 3 years. The primary endpoints were overall survival (OS), relapse-free survival (RFS) and event-free survival (EFS). Outcome evaluation was performed both in eligible patients and in all randomised patients according to the intention-to-treat principle. 8 randomised patients were considered ineligible. At a median follow-up of 8 years, there was no difference in OS (Hazard Ratio (HR)=1.11, 95% Confidence Interval (CI): 0.77-1.61, P=0.58), EFS (HR=1.14, 95% CI: 0.78-1.64, P=0.48), and RFS (HR=1.14, 95% CI: 0.8-1.64, P=0.48) between the two arms for all of the patients. At 8 years, the RFS percentages (+/-Standard Error (S.E.)) were 65.4% (+/-4%) in the CMF arm and 62.7% (+/-4%) in the epirubicin arm; for EFS these were 64.2% (+/-4%) for CMF and 60.8% (+/-4%) for epirubicin, respectively. A significant difference in RFS (P=0.015) was observed in patients with 4-9 positive nodes in favour of the CMF arm. Toxicity in the two arms was superimposable except for more frequent grade 3 alopecia in the epirubicin-treated patients (P=0.001). Overall, at a median follow-up of 8 years, there were no differences between the two arms in terms of OS, EFS and RFS.

Abstract

We designed three new four-drug cisplatin-containing combinations and evaluated their activity in a randomized phase II study including patients with locally advanced (stage III) and locally recurrent breast carcinoma. All combinations included methotrexate (M) on day 1 and cisplatin (P) on day 2 (MVAC-like combinations) and differed from one another by the addition of Epirubicin (Epi), Vincristine (V), Etoposide (E), Mitomycin (Mi). Based on the administered agents, they were named MPEMi, MPEpiE, MPEpiV. The combinations were randomly assigned to 101 patients, 57 with locally advanced and 44 with locally recurrent breast carcinoma. Response was evaluated after 4 cycles. The complete response (CR) rates were 7% and 43% and the CR plus partial response (PR) rates were 84% and 89% in locally advanced and in locally recurrent disease, respectively. In locally advanced disease, a pathologic CR (pCR) was assessed in seven of 57 patients (12%). There were no significant differences among the three combinations. The toxicities were at times severe, but generally tolerable, as demonstrated by the high cumulative doses of the drugs received by the patients. In conclusion, these three innovative chemotherapy regimens induced high CR plus PR rates in the neoadjuvant treatment of stage III and of locally recurrent breast carcinoma, and a high rate of pCR in stage III disease. These regimens warrant testing in phase III trials.

Abstract

Patients with histologically confirmed advanced colorectal cancer were randomized to receive folinic acid (FA; 500 mg/mq in 2-hour intravenous infusion) and 5-fluorouracil (5FU; 600 mg/mq given as an intravenous bolus 1 hour after FA), beginning every week for 6 weeks, followed by a 2-week rest period, either without hydroxyurea (HU, arm A) or with HU (35 mg/kg per day) given orally in three administrations (every 8 hours) starting 6 hours after 5FU administration (arm B). Six weekly doses were considered one course. One hundred eighty-two patients were randomized in this trial and 162 (89%) were evaluable for response: 81 patients in arm A and 81 patients in arm B. Objective response was observed in 18 (one complete response and 17 partial responses) of 81 evaluable patients (22%; 95% confidence interval, 13-31%) in arm A, and 24 (nine complete responses and 15 partial responses) of 81 patients (30%; 95% confidence interval, 20-40%) in arm B. There was no difference in terms of median time to progression and median survival. Gastrointestinal toxicity was the most frequently observed toxicity in both arms. The double modulation of 5FU, FA plus HU does not appear to be better than the classic 5FU plus FA schedule. This trial confirms that 5FU and FA reached a plateau of 20% to 30%.

Abstract

The Authors report the results with combination of cisplatin, methotrexate, vinblastine with adriamycin or epidoxorubicin (MVAC v MVEEC), in the neoadjuvant treatment of muscle-infiltrating bladder cancer (T2-4NO-1MO), before cystectomy. MVAC has been used in 29 patients and MVEEC in 25, who met eligibility criteria. Results from this prospective randomised trial show that MVAC and MVEEC can produce clinical and pathologic down-staging in 40-50% of cases: cCR+cPR are 15/28 (54%), pCR+pPR are 11/25 (44%). The survival duration of "pathologic" responders has been significantly longer than that of no responders (median no achieved at 200 weeks v 124 weeks for "pathologic" no responders). We conclude that neoadjuvant chemotherapy with MVAC or MVEEC select the more responsive patients, who have a longer survival.

Abstract

Background: The M-VAC combination is very effective in bladder carcinoma, as are all four drugs, as single-agent, in advanced breast carcinoma., Patients and Methods: M-VAC was given in 27 patients, 4 with locally advanced breast carcinoma, 3 with local recurrence and 20 with distant metastases. The median age was 51 (range 25; 70). Eleven of the 20 patients with metastatic disease has been previously treated with a different chemotherapy., Results: 15 of 26 evaluable patients responded, with 9 (35%) complete remissions and 6 partial responses. The overall response rate (CR plus PR) was 57% (95% confidence interval 38% to 76%). In patients with metastatic disease the median duration of response was 7 months (range 4+; 36+), median time to progression 5 months (range 1; 36+) and median duration of survival 17 months (range 1; 40+)., Conclusion: The M-VAC combination is very effective in locally advanced, locally recurrent and metastatic breast carcinoma. Further trials are warranted to evaluate whether the activity of this combination is partially schedule-dependent.

Abstract

The cisplatin (P) and etoposide (E) combination has been found to be active in several types of solid tumors. It has never been previously tested in advanced colorectal cancer. Thirty-three patients with advanced colorectal cancer were treated with this combination. Five patients responded (1 complete and 4 partial responses) with an overall response rate of 15% (95% confidence limits, 3%-27%). Responses were seen in both untreated (3/16) and pretreated (2/17) patients. The median duration of response was 28 weeks (range: 23; 80), the median time to progression was 16 weeks (range 2; 80) and the median survival time for all entered patients was 38 weeks (range: 2; 187+). These results suggest that the PE combination has a low but definite activity in advanced colorectal carcinoma, particularly in previously untreated patients.

Abstract

Twenty-two consecutive patients with brain metastases from breast carcinoma were treated with a combination of platinum (100 mg/m2 day 1) and etoposide (100 mg/m2 days 4, 6, 8) every three weeks. Five (23%) achieved a complete response (CR) while 7 (32%) obtained a partial response (PR) for an overall response rate of 55%. The 95% confidence interval for combined CR and PR was 34-76%. Five patients received brain irradiation after reaching the maximum degree of objective remission by chemotherapy. Median duration of combined CR plus PR was 40 weeks (12+; 152). Median duration of survival was 58 weeks (2; 208+). Fifty-five percent of the patients were alive at one year. Our study demonstrates that this combination treatment is highly effective in the management of brain metastases from breast carcinoma.

Abstract

We designed a multicenter, double-blind randomized study to determine the safety and antiemetic effectiveness of intravenous (IV) methylprednisolone (P) combined with high-dose IV metoclopramide (MTC) v MTC alone in 200 untreated cancer patients receiving cisplatin chemotherapy. One hundred eighty-five patients were evaluable for treatment efficacy. MTC plus P was significantly superior to MTC alone in reducing the number and length of vomiting episodes (P = .001 and P = .0008, respectively) and the maximal intensity of nausea (P = .0124 with a score system; P = .0155 with a linear analogue scale) and length of nausea (P = .0056). The subgroup with a major incidence of nausea and vomiting was women, especially young women, outpatients, and those treated with higher doses of cisplatin. Side effects were low and equally distributed between the two treatment groups. We conclude that MTC plus P has greater antiemetic activity than MTC alone in patients receiving cisplatin chemotherapy.

Abstract

IF 6.029; International audience; BackgroundThe prognostic value of lymphocyte infiltration (LI) of colorectal carcinoma (CC) has been demonstrated by several groups. However, no validated test is currently available for clinical practice. We previously described an automated and reproducible method for testing LI and aimed to validate it for clinical use.Patients and methodsAccording to National Institutes of Health criteria, we designed a prospective validation of this biomarker in patients included in the PETACC8 phase III study. Primary objective was to compare percentage of patients alive and without recurrence at 2 years in patients with high versus low LI (#NCT02364024). Associations of LI with patient recurrence and survival were analysed, and multivariable models were adjusted for treatment and relevant factors. Automated testing of LI was performed on virtual slides without access to clinical data.ResultsAmong the 1220 CC patients enrolled, LI was high, low and not evaluable in 241 (19.8%), 790 (64.8%) and 189 (15.5%), respectively. Primary objective was met with a 2-year recurrence rate of 14.4% versus 21.1% in patients with high and low LI, respectively (p = 0.02). Patients with high LI also had better disease free survival (DFS) and overall survival (OS). Tumour stage, grade, RAS status and BRAF status were with LI the only prognostic markers in multivariable analysis for OS. Subgroup analyses revealed that high LI had better DFS and OS in mismatch repair (MMR) proficient patients, and in patients without RAS mutation, but not in MMR deficient and RAS mutated patients.ConclusionAlthough this is the first validation with high level of evidence (IIB) of the prognostic value of a LI test in colon cancers, it still needs to be confirmed in independent series of colon cancer patients.

Abstract

Background: Therapeutic approach for patients with metastatic breast cancer (MBC) is still controversial. This study was conducted to assess the efficacy and safety of bevacizumab in combination with docetaxel plus capecitabine as first-line treatment for MBC. The feasibility of bevacizumab maintenance therapy in this setting was also evaluated. Patients and methods: In this single-arm, multicenter phase II study, patients received bevacizumab 15 mg/kg and docetaxel 60 mg/m2 on day 1, plus capecitabine 900 mg/m2 twice daily on days 1-14 every 21 days. Treatment was administered for up to 6 cycles, then bevacizumab continued until progressive disease. The primary end point was progression-free survival (PFS); secondary end points were tumor response rate, overall survival, and toxicity. Results: Seventy-nine eligible patients were treated with bevacizumab in combination with docetaxel plus capecitabine. The overall response rate was 61 %, with a complete response rate of 8 % and a median duration of response of 10 months. At a median follow-up of 28 months, the median PFS was 11 months. Fifty-two (65 %) patients received bevacizumab maintenance therapy for a median duration of 7 months (range 1 to 33+). Neutropenia was the most common grade 3-4 toxicity (28.1 % of patients), and two fatal adverse events occurred (septic shock and gastrointestinal perforation). Conclusions: Bevacizumab in combination with docetaxel and capecitabine demonstrates significant activity and quite acceptable toxicity profile as first-line treatment of MBC. Subsequent maintenance therapy with bevacizumab is feasible for a long period of stable disease. Results deserve confirmation. © 2013 Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg.
