  1. ADJUVANT AND NEOADJUVANT APPROACHES IN RCC Relatore: Dr.ssa ALKETA HAMZAJ alketa.hamzaj@usl8.toscana.it S.S. ONCOLOGIA MEDICA OSPEDALE SAN DONATO AREZZO

  2. RCC: Presentation at diagnosis Localized Locally advanced Metastatic 30% Recurrence

  3. Rationale of an adjuvant therapy approach in RCC • Nearly 50% of all pts with RCC will have metastatic disease upfront or during their disease course. • Micrometastatic disease at the time of surgery in pts with recurrent disease following nephrectomy • Use of effective therapy may reduce the risk of relapse

  4. Past Adjuvant Therapy Approaches Designed • Radiation therapy • Hormonal therapy • Chemotherapy • Immunotherapy • Vaccines • Monoclonal antibody

  5. Adjuvant randomized trials in RCC:

  6. Progress in recent years ... • Better prognostic definition of the risk stratification • Advances in knowledge of the molecular biology of RCC • Availability of new target-based treatments, effective in metastatic disease and safe

  7. Progress in recent years ... • Better prognostic definition of the risk stratification • Advances in knowledge of the molecular biology of RCC • Availability of new target-based treatments, effective in metastatic disease and safe

  8. Defining Risk • Predicting the probability that a subject will experience a certain event in time • Identifing patients at increased risk, which may benefit from adjuvant therapy and reducing toxicity in low-risk pts

  9. Current Risk Stratification Algorithms • Postoperative models: • Kattan’s nomogram, Memorial-Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center (Kattan, J Urol 2001): RFS • SSIGN, Mayo Clinic (Frank, J Urol 2002): CSS • UISS (Zisman, J Clin Oncol, 2004): OS • Preoperative models: • Yayciouglu (Urology 2001): RFS • Cindolo (Br J Urol Int 2003): RFS

  10. Risk Group Stratification for patients with surgically resected RCC • SSIGN, Mayo Clinic (Frank, J Urol 2002): CSS • UISS (Zisman, J Clin Oncol, 2004): OS

  11. Mayo Clinic Score for RCC (SSIGN)* Cancer- specific Survival rate SSIGN Score 5-years C-SS 0-2 3-4 5-6 7-9 >10 100% 91% 64% 47% 0 * Mayo Clinic Stage, Size, Grade and Necrosis score for ccRCC; Frank I, J Urol 2002

  12. UCLA Integrated Staging System (UISS*): Pts with RCC undergone surgery Non metastatic pts Metastatic pts Low Low Intermed Intermed High risck High risck * T stage, Grade, ECOG-PS Zisman et al, JCO 2004 Downs TM et al. Crit Rev Oncol Hemato, 2009

  13. UCLA Integrated Staging System (UISS): Nonmetastatic patients OS 5 anni: 84% OS 5 anni: 72% OS 5 anni: 44% Zisman et al, JCO 2004

  14. UCLA Integrated Staging System (UISS): Metastatic patients OS 5 anni: 30% OS 5 anni: 0% OS 5 anni: 19% Zisman et al, JCO 2004

  15. UCLA Integrated Staging System (UISS): Survival Analysis Kaplan–Meier survival analysis of the study population according to the formulated UISS categories separately for metastatic (M+) and nonmetastatic (M−) patients Downs TM et al. Crit Rev Oncol Hemato, 2009

  17. Progress in recent years ... • Better prognostic definition of the risk stratification • Advances in knowledge of the molecular biology of RCC • Availability of new target-based treatments, effective in metastatic disease and safe

  18. New target-based treatments... Bevacizumab Temsirolimus Everolimus Sunitinib Sorafenib Pazopanib Axitinib Brugarolas, NEJM 2007

ASSURE (ECOG 2805)Adjuvant Sorafenib or Sunitinib for Unfavorable REnal Cell Carcinoma Group A Sunitinib 50mg (4 capsules) orally q.d.  4 weeks followed by rest  2 weeks for nine cycles† Primary objective: disease-free survival Secondary objective: OS, QoL, molecular & genetic predictors for DFS Stratification Tumour: pT1b G3-4; pT2-T4 or any T with N+ • Intermediate or high risk • Very high risk Histological sub-type • Clear cell • Non-clear cell (except collecting ductor medullary) ECOG PS • 0 • 1 Surgery • Laparoscopic • Open Group B Sorafenib 400mg (2 tablets) orally b.i.d.  6 weeks for nine cycles† Preregister* Randomisation Nephrectomy Group C Placebo *Accrual goal = 1,332; †one cycle = 6 weeks

  24. Neoadjuvant approaches in RCC • Localized disease - What about neoadjuvant therapy to improve outcome? - Neoadjuvant therapy to downsize and facilitate surgery? • Metastatic disease (synchronous) - Cytoriductive nephrectomy is still the standard of care in mRCC? - Can pretreatment help to select pts who may not be cantidates for cytoreductive nephrectomy?

  25. Localized disease: neoadjuvant therapy to improve outcome Theoretical advantages to administer presurgical therapy: • Downsizing Partial nephrectomy, Nephrone sparing surgery • Assesment of tumor biology and proangiogenic factors • Decreasing circulating tumor cells • Provide tissue to study the mechanism of action of targeted agents

  26. Localized disease: neoadjuvant therapy to improve outcome Potential disadvantages of the presurgical approach: • Increasing risk of perioperative morbidity and/or mortality • Delay potentially curative surgery in nonresponding patients

  27. Neoadjuvant therapy to downsize and facilitate surgery • There is no universally accepted definition of resectability • The decision of unresectability is often based on imaging

  28. Does downsizing really improveresectability ? Primary tumor downsizing in renal cell carcinoma is more prominent in smaller tumors enabling nephron sparing strategies n= 85 primary tumors from 5 published studies, after pretreatment with sunitinib and sorafenib Kroon et al., Urology 2012

  30. Neoadjuvant approaches in metastatic RCC Cytoriductive nephrectomy is still the standard of care in mRCC?

  33. Multivariate Analysis Demonstrated Better OS in Patients with CN The advantage was mantained if adjusted by prognostic factors* Patients in poor risk group had a marginal benefit (p=0.06) Choueiri TK, et al. J Urol 2011 *Heng DY, et al. J Clin Oncol 2009

  37. Take home message • Adjuvant therapy ? Yes… in high risk surgically resectable RCC Given the risk/benefit profile, no adjuvant treatment is appropriate outside clinical trials

  38. Take home message • Neoadjuvant therapy ? No published studies describing the use of neoadjuvant therapy in Nonmetastatic RCC In metastatic RCC cytoreductive nephrectomy is currently used as a standard treatment for patients with good or intermediate risk Benefit less clear in patients with poor prognostic risk Ongoing studies will clarify The value of surgery in the context of targeted therapy The optimal timing of surgery in clinical practice
