Papel de los nuevos Tki: AXITINIB Dr. Javier Puente Vázquez Servicio Oncología Médica Hospital Universitario Clínico San Carlos
The challenge of treatment in mRCC • Benefits of tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) are well established; however, there are limitations • There are few complete responses • Initial partial responses are followed by progression • In other cases there is no objective benefit • Drug resistance remains an ongoing obstacle to successful treatment of mRCC • Limits the success of therapy and reduces survival rates • Motzer RJ, et al. J Clin Oncol 2009; Rini B, et al. J Clin Oncol 2010; Escudier B, et al. J Clin Oncol 2010; Escudier B, et al. N Engl J Med 2007; Hudes G, N Engl J Med 2007

Axitinib is a Selective Inhibitor of VEGF Receptors 1, 2, 3 Selective Inhibitor Hu-Lowe DD, et al. Clin Can Res. 2008;14:7272–7283. • Low IC50 indicates higher affinity. • Axitinib inhibits VEGF receptors 1, 2, and 3 at picomolar concentrations, suggesting potent and highly selective activity against these receptors.

Decreasing VEGFR-2 in Animal Models Axitinib Decreases VEGFR-2 in Animal Models • Significant reductions in intensity of VEGFR-2 and VEGFR-3 of RIP-Tag2† tumour vessels after 7 days of axitinib treatment Axitinib7 days Vehicle Axitinib 7 days • *Different from corresponding vehicle (P< 0.05) • †The RIP-Tag2 animal model is of pancreatic islet cell cancer. • MVD = microvessel density • Inai T, McDonald D. J Am Pathol. 2004;165:35–52. Olsson AK, et al. Molec Cell Biol. 2006;7:359–371. • Blockade of VEGFR-2 may lead to a decrease in MVD and blood flow.
Reduces Tumour Blood Vessels Axitinib Reduces the Number of Tumour Blood Vessels CD31 Untreated Axitinib 7 days Withdrawal 7 days Withdrawal 2 days RIP-Tag2 • Mancuso MR, et al. J Clin Invest. 2006;116:2610–2621. • Axitinib reduced MVD and normalised tumour vasculature in 7 days • Withdrawal resulted in regrowth of vessels.
Decreasing Tumour Blood Flow Axitinib Decreases Tumour Blood Flow Vehicle Axitinib 1 Day Reduction of Flow Reduction of Angiogenic Vessels Overlay • Inai T, McDonald D. J Am Pathol. 2004;165:35–52 • Axitinib rapidly decreases tumour blood vessel patency, blood flow, and vessel number within 24 hours of exposure.
Axitinib Blocks Vascular Sprouting in Animal Models Untreated Axitinib 7 days Vascular Sprouting • Axitinib effectively blocks vascular sprouting. • Tammela T, et al. Nature. 2008;454:656–660; Inai T, McDonald D. J Am Pathol. 2004;165:35–52. • Vascular sprouting is one of the initial processes associated with angiogenesis.

Reflexiones ASPECTOS POSITIVOS ASPECTOS ???? 45% de los pacientes no recibieron sunitinib. En pre-Sunit, PFS: 4.8 meses ¿Porqué tanta discrepancia entre IRC e investigadores? ¿Porqué dar la opción de incrementar la dosis? • Estudio Fase III randomizado. • Estudio PURO de 2ª línea. • Mediana PFS: 6.7 meses • TR: 19% • Tolerancia similar Tki • Baja tasa de discontinuación
Conclusiones - Axitinib es un nuevo inhibidor de tirosina quinasa de alto poder inhibitorio sobre VEGFR 1, 2 y 3.- En el contexto de la segunda línea, y en comparación con sorafenib, prolonga la SLP de forma significativa.- Axitinib presenta un perfil de tolerabilidad semejante a otros Tki (hipertensión, hipotiroidismo) pero, en comparación con sorafenib, presenta menos SMP, rash y alopecia.- Axitinib se postula como una alterantiva terapéutica en el contexto de la segunda línea del CCRm.
