Rationale • The combination of anti-EGFR monoclonal antibodies with doublet cemotherapy is an effective strategy in the first-line treatment of mCRC. • Van Cutsem E, N Eng J Med 2009 • Douillard JY, J Clin Oncol 2010 • The triple drug combination FOLFOXIRI demonstrated increased activity and efficacy over FOLFIRI. • Falcone A, J Clin Oncol 2007 • Masi G, J Natl Cancer Inst 2011 • KRAS codon 12-13 mutations predict resistance to Panitumumab. • Amado RG, J Clin Oncol 2008 • Mutations in other KRAS codons (such as codon 61) and other members of the RAS family (mainly HRAS and NRAS) may predict resistance to anti-EGFR agents. • De Roock W, Lancet Oncol 2010 • BRAF V600E mutation may predict resistance to anti-EGFR agents. • Di Nicolantonio F, J Clin Oncol 2008 • Loupakis F, Br J Cancer 2009
Study Design • 35 mCRC pts • wild-type for: • KRAS codon 12-13-61 • BRAF codon 600 • HRAS-NRAS codon 12-13-61 FOLFOXIRI + P-mab P-mab +/- 5FU • INDUCTION TX • up to 12 cycles • or PD • or unacceptable toxicity • or patient’s refusal • MAINTENANCE TX • until PD • or intolerable toxicity • or patient’s refusal *≈70 ptsneeded to be screened incidence of RAS and BRAF mutations ≈50%
Induction Treatment Schedule (after amendment) Day 1 Day 2 & Day 3 P-mab 6 mg/Kg 5FU DOSE AMENDED AFTER 2 SAEs OCCURRED AMONG THE FIRST 3 PTS ENROLLED Irinotecan 150 mg/sqm Oxaliplatin 85 mg/sqm L-LV 200 mg/sqm 5FU flat continuous infusion 2400 mg/sqm 1 hour 1 hour 2 hours 48 hours Repeated every 2 weeks
Main Enrollment Criteria • Histologically confirmed colorectal adenocarcinoma • Availability of formalin-fixed paraffin embedded tumor block from primary or metastasis • RAS and BRAF wild-type status of primary colorectal cancer or related metastasis • Unresectable and measurable metastatic disease (RECIST criteria) • Adjuvant chemotherapy ended more than 12 months before relapse • Age ≥ 18 years and ≤ 75 years • ECOG PS ≤ 2 if aged < 71 years and ECOG PS = 0 if aged 71-75 years • Adequate hematological, liver and kidney function • Prior palliative chemotherapy • Prior treatment with EGFR inhibitors • Symptomatic peripheral neuropathy ≥ 2 grade according to NCIC-CTG criteria
Study Objective and End-points The objective of the trial is to investigate the activity of FOLFOXIRI + panitumumabas first-line treatment in KRAS, NRAS, HRAS and BRAF wild-typemCRCpatients. • PRIMARY END-POINT: • Response Rate • SECONDARY END-POINTS: • Progression Free Survival • Secondary R0 surgery of metastases • Overall survival • Safety profile • Analyses of potentialpredictivefactors of treatment activity or efficacy
Statistics • The primary study end-point is Response rate (RECIST vers. 1.1) • Mini-max, two-stage design by Simon • • alpha and beta errors of 0.05 and 0.20, respectively • • p0 (RR in null hypothesis) of 0.60 • • p1 (RR in alternative hypothesis) of 0.80 • A total of 35 evaluable patients will be enrolled (considering an incidence of RAS and BRAF mutations around 50%, a total of around 70 patients should be screened) • If at least 26 response will be observed, the treatment will be considered promising
Main Enrollment Criteria • Histologically confirmed colorectal adenocarcinoma • Availability of formalin-fixed paraffin embedded tumor block from primary or metastasis • RAS and BRAF wild-type status of primary colorectal cancer or related metastasis • Unresectable and measurable metastatic disease (RECIST criteria) • Adjuvant chemotherapy ended more than 12 months before relapse • Age ≥ 18 years and ≤ 75 years • ECOG PS ≤ 2 if aged < 71 years and ECOG PS = 0 if aged 71-75 years • Adequate hematological, liver and kidney function • Prior palliative chemotherapy • Prior treatment with EGFR inhibitors • Symptomatic peripheral neuropathy ≥ 2 grade according to NCIC-CTG criteria
Safety: results before amendment • Scheduled dose of 5FU before amendment was 3000 mg/sqm • 2 out of the first 3 pts treated with the initially scheduled dose of 5FU experienced severe mucosal toxicity: • • 1 pt experienced grade 4 diarrhea and febrile neutropenia • • 1 pt experienced grade 3 diarrhea • Both pts were hospitalized due to toxicity, which resolved without sequelae • Because of the toxicities observed, study protocol was amended and 5FU dose reduced to 2400 mg/sqm
Treatment administration during INDUCTION THERAPY Reported after amendment *Data are expressed as No. (%) of cycles
Response Rate • All 37 pts have been evaluated for response • Best response is as follows: • • 34 pts achieved Objective Response (ORR: 92%) • • 2 pts (5%) achieved Disease Stabilization • • 1 pt (3%) progressed during treatment
Conversion to resectability • Up today 15 pts (41%) underwent local procedures on metastases (R0 in 12 pts, 32% ) • Among the 13 pts with liver-only disease, 10 pts (77%) underwent local procedures (surgery +/- RFA) on metastases (R0 in 9 pts, 69%) • 3 pts achieved pathologic complete response
Efficacy: Progression-free survival (PFS) Median follow up: 12.2 months No. of pts: 37 No. of events: 24 Median PFS: 10.8 months
CONCLUSIONS - Combining a triple drug regimen such as FOLFOXIRI with Panitumumab seems feasible. - However, treatment is associated with a relatively high incidence of severe mucosal toxicity (mainly diarrhea), therefore, a reduced dose of 5-FU and irinotecan compared with standard GONO-FOLFOXIRI is required. - The primary end-point was met: in molecularly selected patients, FOLFOXIRI-Panitumumab achieved an ORR > 90%, leading to radical resection of metastases in 32% of the patients. - Median PFS appears promising (mPFS: 10.8 months), while mOS has not been reached at a median follow-up of 12.2 months.
