Abstract

PurposeA novel single-dose regimen of 300 mg tremelimumab in combination with durvalumab [Single Tremelimumab Regular Interval Durvalumab (STRIDE)] has demonstrated a favorable benefit-risk profile in the phase I/II Study 22 (NCT02519348) and phase III HIMALAYA study (NCT03298451). This study evaluated the pharmacokinetics, exposure-response, and exposure-pharmacodynamics relationships of tremelimumab in patients with unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma (uHCC).Patients and methodsA previous tremelimumab population pharmacokinetic model was validated using data from parts 2 and 3 of Study 22. Exposure-response analyses explored relationships of tremelimumab exposure with efficacy and safety. Pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics relationships were evaluated using linear and nonlinear regression models.ResultsThe observed pharmacokinetics of tremelimumab in uHCC were consistent with predictions; no significant covariates were identified. Tremelimumab exposure was not significantly associated with adverse events, objective response rate, or progression-free survival. Overall survival (OS) was longer for patients with tremelimumab exposure, minimum serum drug concentration (Cmin1) ≥ median versus Cmin1 < median (18.99 months vs. 10.97 months), but this exposure-survival analysis might be confounded with baseline characteristics of albumin level and neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio, which had a significant impact on OS (P = 0.0004 and 0.0001, respectively). The predicted Cmin1 of tremelimumab in STRIDE regimen (12.9 μg/mL) was greater than the estimated concentration of tremelimumab eliciting half-maximal increases (EC50 = 5.24 μg/mL) in CD8+Ki67+ T-cell counts.ConclusionsOur findings support novel insights into tremelimumab pharmacokinetics and exposure-response relationships in HCC and support the clinical utility of the STRIDE regimen in patients with uHCC.

Abstract

PurposeTo investigate the safety and efficacy of durvalumab, a human monoclonal antibody that binds programmed cell death ligand-1 (PD-L1), and the role of PD-L1 expression on clinical response in patients with advanced urothelial bladder cancer (UBC).MethodsA phase 1/2 multicenter, open-label study is being conducted in patients with inoperable or metastatic solid tumors. We report here the results from the UBC expansion cohort. Durvalumab (MEDI4736, 10 mg/kg every 2 weeks) was administered intravenously for up to 12 months. The primary end point was safety, and objective response rate (ORR, confirmed) was a key secondary end point. An exploratory analysis of pretreatment tumor biopsies led to defining PD-L1-positive as ≥ 25% of tumor cells or tumor-infiltrating immune cells expressing membrane PD-L1.ResultsA total of 61 patients (40 PD-L1-positive, 21 PD-L1-negative), 93.4% of whom received one or more prior therapies for advanced disease, were treated (median duration of follow-up, 4.3 months). The most common treatment-related adverse events (AEs) of any grade were fatigue (13.1%), diarrhea (9.8%), and decreased appetite (8.2%). Grade 3 treatment-related AEs occurred in three patients (4.9%); there were no treatment-related grade 4 or 5 AEs. One treatment-related AE (acute kidney injury) resulted in treatment discontinuation. The ORR was 31.0% (95% CI, 17.6 to 47.1) in 42 response-evaluable patients, 46.4% (95% CI, 27.5 to 66.1) in the PD-L1-positive subgroup, and 0% (95% CI, 0.0 to 23.2) in the PD-L1-negative subgroup. Responses are ongoing in 12 of 13 responding patients, with median duration of response not yet reached (range, 4.1+ to 49.3+ weeks).ConclusionDurvalumab demonstrated a manageable safety profile and evidence of meaningful clinical activity in PD-L1-positive patients with UBC, many of whom were heavily pretreated.

Abstract

The STRIDE (Single Tremelimumab Regular Interval Durvalumab) regimen of single‐dose tremelimumab 300 mg, plus durvalumab 1,500 mg every 4 weeks demonstrated potential for long‐term survival in studies of unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma (uHCC; Study 22 and HIMALAYA). The aim of this analysis was to investigate changes in proliferating CD4+ Ki67+ and CD8+ Ki67+ T cells and their relationship with tremelimumab exposure in patients with uHCC. Median cell count, change from baseline, and percent change from baseline in CD4+ and CD8+ T cells peaked around 14 days after STRIDE. A model of CD4+ and CD8+ T cell response to tremelimumab exposure was developed. Patients with lower baseline T cell counts had a greater percent change from baseline in T cell response to tremelimumab, and baseline T‐cell count was included in the final model. With the full covariate model, the half‐maximal effective concentration (EC50) of tremelimumab was 6.10 μg/mL (standard error = 1.07 μg/mL); > 98.0% of patients were predicted to have a minimum plasma concentration greater than EC50 with tremelimumab 300 or 750 mg. For EC75 (9.82 μg/mL), 69.5% and 98.2% of patients were predicted to exceed the EC75 with tremelimumab 300 and 750 mg, respectively. This analysis supports the clinical hypothesis that combination anti‐cytotoxic T‐lymphocyte‐associated antigen 4 (anti‐CTLA‐4) and anti‐programmed cell death ligand‐1 (anti‐PD‐L1) therapy primes an immune response that may then be sustained by anti‐PD‐L1 monotherapy and supports the clinical utility of the STRIDE regimen in patients with uHCC. These insights may also help inform dose selection of anti‐CTLA‐4 plus anti‐PD‐L1 combination strategies. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Abstract

What Is This Summary About?: This is a summary of results from a phase 3 clinical study called HIMALAYA. HIMALAYA looked at treatment with one dose of a medication called tremelimumab combined with multiple doses of a medication called durvalumab (the STRIDE regimen) or multiple doses of durvalumab alone. These treatments were compared with a medication called sorafenib in participants with unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). HCC is a type of liver cancer that is difficult to treat because it is often diagnosed when it is unresectable, meaning it can no longer be removed with surgery. Sorafenib has been the main treatment for unresectable HCC since 2007. However, people who take sorafenib may experience side effects that can reduce their quality of life, so alternative medicines are being trialed. Tremelimumab and durvalumab are types of drugs called immunotherapies, and they both work in different ways to help the body's immune system fight cancer., What Were the Results of the Study?: Participants who took STRIDE lived longer than participants who took sorafenib, whilst participants who took durvalumab alone lived a similar length of time as participants who took sorafenib. Participants who took STRIDE or durvalumab had a lower relative risk of experiencing worsening in their quality of life than participants who took sorafenib. The side effects that participants who received STRIDE or durvalumab experienced were expected for these types of treatments and could mostly be managed., What Do the Results of the Study Mean?: Overall, STRIDE is more effective than sorafenib for people with unresectable HCC.

Abstract

What Is This Summary About?: This is a summary describing the results of a Phase III study called TOPAZ-1. The study looked at treatment with durvalumab (a type of immunotherapy) and chemotherapy to treat participants with advanced biliary tract cancer (BTC). Advanced BTC is usually diagnosed at late stages of disease, when it cannot be cured by surgery. This study included participants with advanced BTC who had not received previous treatment, or had their cancer come back at least 6 months after receiving treatment or surgery that aimed to cure their disease. Participants received treatment with durvalumab and chemotherapy or placebo and chemotherapy. The aim of this study was to find out if treatment with durvalumab and chemotherapy could increase the length of time that participants with advanced BTC lived, compared with placebo and chemotherapy., What Were the Results of the Study?: Participants who took durvalumab and chemotherapy had a 20% lower chance of experiencing death at any point in the study compared with participants who received placebo and chemotherapy. The side effects experienced by participants were similar across treatment groups, and less than 12% of participants in either treatment group had to stop treatment due to treatment-related side effects., What Do the Results of the Study Mean?: Overall, these results support durvalumab and chemotherapy as a new treatment option for people with advanced BTCs. Based on the results of this study, durvalumab is now approved for the treatment of adults with advanced BTCs in combination with chemotherapy by government organizations in Europe, the United States and several other countries.

Abstract

BACKGROUND: A single, high priming dose of tremelimumab (anti-cytotoxic T lymphocyte–associated antigen 4) plus durvalumab (anti–programmed cell death ligand-1), an infusion regimen termed STRIDE (Single Tremelimumab Regular Interval Durvalumab), showed encouraging clinical activity and safety in a phase 2 trial of unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma. METHODS: In this global, open-label, phase 3 trial, the majority of the patients we enrolled with unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma and no previous systemic treatment were randomly assigned to receive one of three regimens: tremelimumab (300 mg, one dose) plus durvalumab (1500 mg every 4 weeks; STRIDE), durvalumab (1500 mg every 4 weeks), or sorafenib (400 mg twice daily). The primary objective was overall survival for STRIDE versus sorafenib. Noninferiority for overall survival for durvalumab versus sorafenib was a secondary objective. RESULTS: In total, 1171 patients were randomly assigned to STRIDE (n=393), durvalumab (n=389), or sorafenib (n=389). The median overall survival was 16.43 months (95% confidence interval [CI], 14.16 to 19.58) with STRIDE, 16.56 months (95% CI, 14.06 to 19.12) with durvalumab, and 13.77 months (95% CI, 12.25 to 16.13) with sorafenib. Overall survival at 36 months was 30.7%, 24.7%, and 20.2%, respectively. The overall survival hazard ratio for STRIDE versus sorafenib was 0.78 (96.02% CI, 0.65 to 0.93; P=0.0035). Overall survival with durvalumab monotherapy was noninferior to sorafenib (hazard ratio, 0.86; 95.67% CI, 0.73 to 1.03; noninferiority margin, 1.08). Median progression-free survival was not significantly different among all three groups. Grade 3/4 treatment-emergent adverse events occurred for 50.5% of patients with STRIDE, 37.1% with durvalumab, and 52.4% with sorafenib. CONCLUSIONS: STRIDE significantly improved overall survival versus sorafenib. Durvalumab monotherapy was noninferior to sorafenib for patients with unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma.

Abstract

BACKGROUND: Patients with advanced biliary tract cancer have a poor prognosis, and first-line standard of care (gemcitabine plus cisplatin) has remained unchanged for more than 10 years. The TOPAZ-1 trial evaluated durvalumab plus chemotherapy for patients with advanced biliary tract cancer. METHODS: In this double-blind, placebo-controlled, phase 3 study, we randomly assigned patients with previously untreated unresectable or metastatic biliary tract cancer or with recurrent disease 1:1 to receive durvalumab or placebo in combination with gemcitabine plus cisplatin for up to eight cycles, followed by durvalumab or placebo monotherapy until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. The primary objective was to assess overall survival. Secondary end points included progression-free survival, objective response rate, and safety. RESULTS: Overall, 685 patients were randomly assigned to durvalumab (n=341) or placebo (n=344) with chemotherapy. As of data cutoff, 198 patients (58.1%) in the durvalumab group and 226 patients (65.7%) in the placebo group had died. The hazard ratio for overall survival was 0.80 (95% confidence interval [CI], 0.66 to 0.97; P=0.021). The estimated 24-month overall survival rate was 24.9% (95% CI, 17.9 to 32.5) for durvalumab and 10.4% (95% CI, 4.7 to 18.8) for placebo. The hazard ratio for progression-free survival was 0.75 (95% CI, 0.63 to 0.89; P=0.001). Objective response rates were 26.7% with durvalumab and 18.7% with placebo. The incidences of grade 3 or 4 adverse events were 75.7% and 77.8% with durvalumab and placebo, respectively. CONCLUSIONS: Durvalumab plus chemotherapy significantly improved overall survival versus placebo plus chemotherapy and showed improvements versus placebo plus chemotherapy in prespecified secondary end points including progression-free survival and objective response rate. The safety profiles of the two treatment groups were similar. (Funded by AstraZeneca; ClinicalTrials.gov number, NCT03875235.)

Abstract

Myc is a transcription factor that features prominently in cancer. The oncogenicity of Myc stems from its ability to regulate expression of genes required for cell growth and proliferation. Although the mechanisms through which Myc activates transcription have been extensively studied, less is known about how Myc represses transcription. Recently, we reported that a conserved element within Myc-MbIII- is important for transcriptional repression. Here, we investigate the mechanism through which MbIII contributes to repression. We show that Myc represses transcription of target genes Id2 and Gadd153 by a process that involves histone deacetylation. We show that MbIII is important for repression of these genes and present evidence that this element contributes to repression by recruiting the histone deacetylase HDAC3 to the Id2 and Gadd153 promoters. These results describe a mechanistic role for MbIII in transcription, and reveal that recruitment of HDAC3 is a process by which Myc represses gene activity.

Purpose: Histone deacetylase (HDAC) inhibitors have emerged recently as promising anticancer agents. They arrest cells in the cell cycle and induce differentiation and cell death. The antitumor activity of HDAC inhibitors has been linked to their ability to induce gene expression through acetylation of histone and nonhistone proteins. However, it has recently been suggested that HDAC inhibitors may also enhance the activity of other cancer therapeutics, including radiotherapy. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the ability of HDAC inhibitors to radiosensitize human melanoma cells in vitro., Experimental Design: A panel of HDAC inhibitors that included sodium butyrate (NaB), phenylbutyrate, tributyrin, and trichostatin A were tested for their ability to radiosensitize two human melanoma cell lines (A375 and MeWo) using clonogenic cell survival assays. Apoptosis and DNA repair were measured by standard assays., Results: NaB induced hyperacetylation of histone H4 in the two melanoma cell lines and the normal human fibroblasts. NaB radiosensitized both the A375 and MeWo melanoma cell lines, substantially reducing the surviving fraction at 2 Gy (SF2), whereas it had no effect on the normal human fibroblasts. The other HDAC inhibitors, phenylbutyrate, tributyrin, and trichostatin A had significant radiosensitizing effects on both melanoma cell lines tested. NaB modestly enhanced radiation-induced apoptosis that did not correlate with survival but did correlate with functional impairment of DNA repair as determined based on the host cell reactivation assay. Moreover, NaB significantly reduced the expression of the repair-related genes Ku70 and Ku86 and DNA-dependent protein kinase catalytic subunit in melanoma cells at the protein and mRNA levels. Normal human fibroblasts showed no change in DNA repair capacity or levels of DNA repair proteins following NaB treatment. We also examined gamma-H2AX phosphorylation as a marker of radiation response to NaB and observed that compared with controls, gamma-H2AX foci persisted long after ionizing exposure in the NaB-treated cells., Conclusions: HDAC inhibitors radiosensitize human tumor cells by affecting their ability to repair the DNA damage induced by ionizing radiation and that gamma-H2AX phosphorylation can be used as a predictive marker of radioresponse.

Abstract

Melanoma tumors and cultured cell lines are relatively resistant to the cytotoxic effects of ionizing radiation, thereby limiting the use of radiotherapy for the clinical treatment of melanoma. New strategies for sensitizing melanoma cells therefore deserve examination. In an attempt to identify and target signaling pathways that contribute to radioresistance, we investigated the role of nuclear factor-kappaB (NF-kappaB), a transcription factor known to inhibit apoptosis induced by a variety of stimuli and promote radioresistance. Two human metastatic melanoma cell lines, A375 and MeWo, were used to examine the radiosensitizing effects of inhibitors of the NF-kappaB pathway. Nuclear extracts from these cell lines were tested for active NF-kappaB using the electrophoretic mobility shift assay. Both melanoma cell lines had constitutively activated NF-kappaB as observed by electrophoretic mobility shift assay. In an attempt to reverse NF-kappaB activity, cells were treated either with vehicle alone (DMSO) or with a proteasome inhibitor Z-Leu-Leu-Leu-H (MG132; 10 micromol/L for 2 hours prior to irradiation) that inhibited both constitutive and radiation-induced NF-kappaB activity. The clonogenic cell survival assay showed that pretreatment with MG132 enhanced tumor cell radiosensitivity with the survival factor at 2 Gy being reduced from 48 +/- 0.8% and 48 +/- 1.6% in vehicle-treated cells to 27.7 +/- 0.32% and 34.3 +/- 0.7% in MG132-treated MeWo and A375 cells, respectively. To test the role of NF-kappaB in radioresistance more directly, MeWo cells were stably transfected with a dominant-negative mutant IkappaBalpha construct, which led to the inhibition of both constitutive and radiation-induced NF-kappaB activity. A modest restoration of radiosensitivity was also observed in the stably transfected MeWo cells with survival factor at 2 Gy values being reduced from 47 +/- 0.8% in parental MeWo cells to 32.9 +/- 0.7% in stable transfectants. Because constitutively activated mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase (MEK) pathway has been shown to lead to activated NF-kappaB, we wanted to determine the relative contribution of activated MEK in the human melanoma cells. To test this, MeWo and A375 melanoma cells were exposed to the MEK inhibitor PD184352. Treatment with PD184352 partially reversed NF-kappaB activity but did not impart radiation sensitivity to these cells. Our results indicate that activated NF-kappaB may be one of the pathways responsible for the radioresistance of melanoma cells and that strategies for inhibiting its influence may be useful in restoring the radioresponse of melanomas.
