ABSTRACT

BACKGROUND: A double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled, phase 2 trial assessed gemcitabine in combination with the wee1 inhibitor adavosertib or placebo in platinum resistant or refractory high grade serous ovarian cancer (HGSOC), demonstrating improved progression free and overall survival favouring the adavosertib/gemcitabine arm. An exploratory objective of the study included the PRO-CTCAE assessment, to capture self-reporting of frequency, severity and/or interference of symptomatic adverse events (syAEs). METHODS: PRO-CTCAE items at baseline, days 1 and 15 of each cycle and off treatment, were completed in two centres, with the objective of characterizing syAEs in the first three months of therapy. The maximum post-baseline score proportion for each syAE was tabulated per patient. The 12-week area under the curve (AUC12w) as a measure of syAE over-time and incremental AUC12w (iAUC12w) for adjustment to baseline syAEs. RESULTS: Sixty-one patients were approached for PRO-CTCAE surveys and 55 were evaluable. Among patients with HGSOC, 28 received gemcitabine/adavosertib (arm A) and 19 gemcitabine/placebo (arm B). Survey completion rates were high. The proportion of participants with positive (≥1) PRO-CTCAE scores was higher for difficulty swallowing with gemcitabine/adavosertib (arm A 35.7% vs arm B 5.3%, p = 0.02). The high score (≥3) syAEs showed more frequent diarrhea with gemcitabine/adavosertib (arm A 25% vs arm B 0%, p = 0.03). The proportions of worsening syAEs over time were higher in patients receiving gemcitabine/adavosertib for difficulty swallowing (arm A 35.7% vs arm B 5.3%; p = 0.03) and fatigue severity (arm A 71.43% vs arm B 42.1%; p = 0.04). CONCLUSIONS: The longitudinal assessment of patient self-reported tolerability showed greater difficulty swallowing and fatigue severity in patients receiving gemcitabine/adavosertib, compared to gemcitabine/placebo. PRO-CTCAE provides complementary and objective assessment of drug tolerability from a patient's perspective.

ABSTRACT

PURPOSE: The relevance of the MET/hepatocyte growth factor pathway in endometrial cancer tumor biology supports the clinical evaluation of cabozantinib in this disease. PATIENTS AND METHODS: PHL86/NCI#9322 (NCT01935934) is a single arm study that evaluated cabozantinib (60 mg once daily) in women with endometrial cancer with progression after chemotherapy. Coprimary endpoints were response rate and 12-week progression-free-survival (PFS). Patients with uncommon histology endometrial cancer (eg, carcinosarcoma and clear cell) were enrolled in a parallel exploratory cohort. RESULTS: A total of 102 patients were accrued. Among 36 endometrioid histology patients, response rate was 14%, 12-week PFS rate was 67%, and median PFS was 4.8 months. In serous cohort of 34 patients, response rate was 12%, 12-week PFS was 56%, and median PFS was 4.0 months. In a separate cohort of 32 patients with uncommon histology endometrial cancer (including carcinosarcoma), response rate was 6% and 12-week PFS was 47%. Six patients were on treatment for >12 months, including two for >30 months. Common cabozantinib-related toxicities (>30% patients) included hypertension, fatigue, diarrhea, nausea, and hand-foot syndrome. Gastrointestinal fistula/perforation occurred in four of 70 (6%) patients with serous/endometrioid cancer and five of 32 (16%) patients in exploratory cohort. We observed increased frequency of responses with somatic CTNNB1 mutation [four partial responses (PRs) in 10 patients, median PFS 7.6 months] and concurrent KRAS and PTEN/PIK3CA mutations (three PRs in 12 patients, median PFS 5.9 months). CONCLUSIONS: Cabozantinib has activity in serous and endometrioid histology endometrial cancer. These results support further evaluation in genomically characterized patient cohorts.
