SABCS 2005

  20. Toxicidad en CMM Avastin’s safety profile in combination with chemotherapy • Less frequently reported events • congestive heart failure (CHF)/cardiomyopathy • arterial thromboembolism (ATE) • venous thromboembolism (VTE) • wound-healing complications • gastrointestinal perforations • Commonly reported events • hypertension • proteinuria • bleeding/haemorrhage • Typical chemotherapy-associated side effects • neuropathy • neutropenia • fatigue

  21. Toxicidad en CMM CHF in Avastin-treated mBC patients • E2100 study: CHF reported in 1.4% of Avastin-treated patients • only patients with anthracycline pre-treatment developed CHF • AVF2119g: CHF reported in 3.5% of Avastin-treated patients • all patients had received previous anthracyclines • Most patients showed improvement of symptoms or left ventricularfunction following appropriate medical therapy • Possible risk factors • prior anthracycline exposure and/or prior radiation to the chest wall

  22. Toxicidad en CMM ATEs in Avastin-treated mBC patients • E2100: grade 3/4 ATEs reported in 2.5% of Avastin-treated patients • one grade 5 ATE was reported in the Avastin arm • AVF2119g: grade 3/4 ATEs reported in 0.4% of Avastin-treated patients, compared with 0.5% of patients in the control arm • Risk factors* • a prior history (stroke/heart attack) - ~5 fold • age > 65 years - ~3 fold • hypertension - ~2 fold • Recommendation • Avastin should be permanently discontinued in patients who develop ATEs ATEs= Arterial thromboembolic events

  23. Toxicidad en CMM Across all indications, it is unclear whether VTEs are due to cancer, chemotherapy, Avastin or other factors • E2100: grade 3/4 VTEs reported in 2.8% of Avastin-treated patients compared with 3.1% of patients in the control arm • AVF2119g: grade 3/4 VTEs were reported in 6.1% of Avastin- treated patients and 3.7% of patients in the control arm • Trial practice • in clinical trials, for grade 3/4 venous thrombosis interrupt Avastin for 3 weeks; continue Avastin once patient has stable anticoagulation parameters • Avastin should be discontinued in patients with symptomatic pulmonary embolism

  24. Toxicidad en CMM Wound-healing complications in Avastin-treated mBC patients • E2100: grade 3/4 wound infections (listed under the category wound-healing complications) were reported in 1.1% of Avastin-treated patients • AVF2119g: no wound-healing complications were reported • Recommendation • Avastin should • not be initiated for at least 28 days following major surgery or until the surgical wound is fully healed • be withheld until the wound is fully healed • be withheld for elective surgery

  25. Toxicidad en CMM GI perforations in Avastin-treated mBC patients • E2100: grade 4 GI perforation was identified in 0.6% of Avastin-treated patients • associated with diverticulitis (n=1) and tumour erosion of the bowel (n=1) • 1 additional case of grade 4 rectal/anal fistula was reported • AVF2119g: no GI perforation reported • Recommendation • Avastin therapy should be permanently discontinued in patients who develop GI perforation

  26. Mechanisms by which anti-VEGF agents may cause hypertension Toxicidad en CMM • Anti-VEGF therapy • decreases endogenous nitric oxide, which causes hypertension • reduces vascular density leading to increased systemic vascular resistance • changes permeability resulting in increased intravascular volume

  27. Hypertension: NCI-CTCAE v3.0 definitions Toxicidad en CMM Hypertension (increase by >20mmHg diastolic or to >150/100 if previously normal) Grade 1: asymptomatic, transient increase; no treatment required Grade 2: recurrent, persistent or symptomatic increase; monotherapy may be required Grade 3: requiring more than one drug or more Intensive therapy than previously Grade 4: life-threatening (e.g. hypertensive crisis)

  28. Toxicidad en CMM Hypertension in phase III trials of Avastin in mBC Paclitaxel (n=346) Paclitaxel + Avastin* (n=362) Capecitabine (n=215) Capecitabine + Avastin† (n=229) 40 30 20 10 0 Percentage 23,5 17,9 15,2 2,4 1,4 0,3 0,5 0 NR 0 0 All grades Grade 3 Grade 4 All grades Grade 3 Grade 4 *Avastin given every 2 weeks; †Avastin given every 3 weeks

  29. Toxicidad en CMM Blood pressure should be managed actively • Pre-existing hypertension should be appropriately controlled before starting Avastin • During treatment, blood pressure should be monitored regularly • Hypertension can generally be well-controlled with oral antihypertensive medications • In patients with severe (grade 3) hypertension • temporary interruption of Avastin is recommended until adequate control is achieved • if hypertension cannot be controlled, Avastin should be permanently discontinued • Discontinuation of Avastin is rarely required • Avastin should be discontinued in patients who develop hypertensive crisis or hypertensive encephalopathy

  30. Mechanism by which anti-VEGF agents may cause proteinuria Toxicidad en CMM • VEGF maintains the glomerular and peritubular capillary network in the kidney • anti-VEGF therapy may affect the glomerular and peritubular capillary network

  31. Proteinuria: NCI-CTCAE v3.0 definitions Toxicidad en CMM Dipstick Urine protein level Grade 1 transient 1+ 0.15–1.0g/24 hours Grade 2 persistent moderate 2+ - 3+ >1.0–3.5g/24 hours Grade 3 severe 4+ >3.5g/24 hours Grade 4 nephrotic syndrome As above but with hypoalbuminaemia and peripheral oedema

  32. Proteinuria in phase III trials of Avastin in mBC Toxicidad en CMM 40 30 20 10 0 Paclitaxel (n=346) Paclitaxel + Avastin* (n=362) Capecitabine (n=215) Capecitabine + Avastin† (n=229) 22,3 Percentage 7,4 1,7 1,4 0,9 0 0 0 0 NR 0 All grades Grade 3 Grade 4 All grades Grade 3 Grade 4 *Avastin given every 3 weeks; †Avastin given every 2 weeks Most reported proteinuria was grade 1 Patients with a history of hypertension may be at increased risk of proteinuria when treated with Avastin

  33. Monitoring for proteinuria is recommended before and during Avastin therapy Toxicidad en CMM • Proteinuria was not associated with renal dysfunction • Dipstick urinalysis is recommended prior to and during therapy • 24-hour urine collection should be used if dipstick reading is 2+ or greater (3+ on second and subsequent occurrences) • Trial practice • interrupt Avastin if urine protein levels (UPL) 2g/24h, restart once UPL <1g/24h • currently planned adjuvant trials allow Avastin treatment up to UPL 3.5g/24h • Discontinuation of Avastin is rarely required • Avastin should be discontinued in patients who develop nephrotic syndrome

  34. Mechanisms of anti-VEGF agents may cause bleeding Toxicidad en CMM • Antagonising VEGF, the major endothelial mitogen, may • decrease the renewal capacity of the endothelial cell in response to trauma • cause endothelial dysfunction and defects in the internal vascular lining

  35. Bleeding/haemorrhage: NCI-CTCAE v3.0 definitions Toxicidad en CMM Grade 1: mild, intervention not indicated Grade 2: symptomatic, medical intervention indicated Grade 3: transfusion indicated Grade 4: life-threatening consequences, major urgent intervention indicated

  36. The most common bleeding event for Avastin is mild (grade 1) nose bleed Toxicidad en CMM Bleeding events in phase III Avastin mBC trials 40 30 20 10 0 Capecitabine (n=215) Capecitabine + Avastin† (n=229) Paclitaxel (n=346) Paclitaxel + Avastin* (n=362) 28,8 Percentage 11,2 1,1 0,3 0,4 0,5 0 0 0 0 NR All grades Grade 3 Grade 4 All grades Grade 3 Grade 4 *Avastin given every 2 weeks; †Avastin given every 3 weeks

  37. The majority of bleeding events were minor – severe events are infrequently reported Toxicidad en CMM • The majority of bleeding events were minor and mucocutaneous and did not require medical intervention • The risk of CNS haemorrhage in patients with CNS metastases receiving Avastin has not been fully evaluated • these patients were excluded from clinical trials • Avastin should be permanently discontinued in patients who experience grade 3/4 bleeding

  38. Impact of Avastin on typical chemotherapy-associated side effects Toxicidad en CMM Grade 3/4 adverse event (%) Capecitabine(n=215) Avastin + Capecitabine(n=229) Paclitaxel* (n=346) Avastin + paclitaxel* (n=362) Neutropenia 2.8† 2.6† 1.5 3.1 Fatigue 8.6 9.1 4.9 9.1 Diarrhoea 10.7 11.8 1.4 3.6 Neuropathy 0.9 0 16.5 23.5 †Leukopenia • Since patients were receiving concomitant chemotherapy, it is not clear to what extent Avastin contributed to these events • in E2100, the substantial improvement in PFS was associated with longer treatment duration of paclitaxel in the Avastin arm • likely accounts for the increase in neuropathy, fatigue and other chemotherapy related events • in contrast, in the Avastin + capecitabine trial, treatment duration did not differ, and no meaningful differences in chemotherapy-related side effects were observed
