OBJECTIVE: To review the pharmacology, efficacy, and safety of efalizumab for the treatment of moderate to severe plaque psoriasis. DATA SOURCES: A MEDLINE search (1966–May 2005%) using the key words hu1124, anti-CD11a, efalizumab, Raptiva, Xanelim, and psoriasis was conducted. References of identified articles were reviewed for additional citations. STUDY SELECTION AND DATA EXTRACTION: Clinical trials evaluating the pharmacology, efficacy, and safety of efalizumab for treatment of moderate to severe plaque psoriasis in adults were included in our review. DATA SYNTHESIS: Efalizumab's ability to inhibit the binding of CD11a, a subunit of leukocyte function–associated antigen type 1, to intracellular adhesion molecule 1 results in decreased T-cell activation and migration, 2 key steps in the immunopathogenesis of psoriasis. Results of clinical trials have demonstrated that efalizumab administered subcutaneously is a safe and effective treatment for moderate to severe plaque psoriasis. Efalizumab was well tolerated in trials, with the majority of adverse events arising with the first dose and decreasing with subsequent doses. The high cost of this agent and lack of head-to-head trials with other drugs will likely restrict its use to patients who have failed prior systemic therapy or phototherapy. CONCLUSIONS: Efalizumab is a safe and effective therapy for treatment of moderate to severe plaque psoriasis in patients who have failed prior systemic therapy or phototherapy.

There is a number of unresolved issues regarding the systemic therapy administration for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Their solution is facilitated by accumulating real‑world study results. Lenvatinib therapy is a recognized drug with a good efficacy and safety profile for the treatment of HCC. Subanalyses of the REFLECT study showed that the absence of stratification by baseline AFP and baseline liver function, as well as the lack of options for subsequent drug therapy after lenvatinib, also affects the outcomes. Once these factors are taken into account, the hypothesis of superiority of lenvatinib to sorafenib and other drugs can be tested. Real‑world clinical studies have demonstrated positive results of lenvatinib therapy in patients with Child‑Pugh class B liver function, provided recommendations on the sequence of systemic therapy after lenvatinib and on the use of lenvatinib in patients with BCLC stage B, along with considering the possibility of lenvatinib monotherapy and the prospects for its use in patients with nHCC. Further real‑world studies of lenvatinib for HCC in the Russian population are required.

TPS369 Background: Treatment options for RCC in the late-line setting after immunotherapy and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF)-targeted therapy are limited. Hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF)-2α is a transcription factor that has been established as an oncogenic driver in clear cell RCC (ccRCC). The first-in-class small molecular HIF-2α inhibitor, MK-6482, recently showed promising antitumor activity in a cohort of heavily pretreated ccRCC patients (pts) and in pts with von Hippel-Lindau–disease-associated RCC for which the FDA granted Breakthrough Therapy Designation to MK-6482. Methods: This randomized, open-label, multicenter phase II trial will evaluate the efficacy and safety of 2 doses of MK-6482 in pts with advanced RCC who have experienced progression after prior systemic therapy (NCT04489771). Eligible pts are male or female aged ≥18 years with histologically confirmed locally advanced or metastatic ccRCC (measurable disease per RECIST v1.1) who have experienced progression after 1-3 prior systemic therapies comprising an anti-PD-1/L1 agent combined with a VEGF-targeted tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) or an anti-cytotoxic T lymphocyte-associated antigen-4 agent and have undergone no more than 3 prior systemic regimens; and a Karnofsky Performance Scale ≥70. Treatment progression on anti-PD-1/L1 combination therapy was defined as pts who received at least 2 doses of anti-PD-1/L1 therapy and demonstrated radiographic disease progression as assessed by the investigator. Pts who have received prior treatment with MK-6482 or another HIF-2α inhibitor, and those requiring intermittent or chronic supplemental oxygen, or with a baseline hemoglobin less than 10 g/dL, a history of human immunodeficiency virus, hepatitis B or hepatitis C infection, or active central nervous system metastases will be excluded. Approximately 150 pts will be randomly assigned 1:1 to oral MK-6482 120 mg once daily (QD) or 200 mg QD; treatment will continue until progression, unacceptable toxicity, or withdrawal. Pts will be stratified by International Metastatic RCC Database Consortium prognostic scores (0, 1-2, 3-6) and the number of prior TKI-containing therapies (0, 1, or 2-3). Imaging with computed tomography or magnetic resonance imaging will be undertaken on Week 9 from the date of randomization, every 8 weeks through Week 49, and every 12 weeks thereafter. Adverse events will be monitored throughout the study and for 30 days after treatment (90 days for serious adverse events). The primary end point is objective response rate per RECIST v1.1 by blinded independent central review (BICR). Secondary end points are progression-free survival, duration of response and clinical benefit rate per RECIST v1.1 by BICR, overall survival, pharmacokinetics, and safety. Safety will be analyzed using a tiered approach. This study is recruiting. Clinical trial information: NCT04489771 .

Purpose Romidepsin is a structurally unique, potent class 1 selective histone deacetylase inhibitor. The primary objective of this international, pivotal, single-arm, phase II trial was to confirm the efficacy of romidepsin in patients with relapsed or refractory peripheral T-cell lymphoma (PTCL). Patients and Methods Patients who were refractory to at least one prior systemic therapy or for whom at least one prior systemic therapy failed received romidepsin at 14 mg/m2 as a 4-hour intravenous infusion on days 1, 8, and 15 every 28 days. The primary end point was the rate of complete response/unconfirmed complete response (CR/CRu) as assessed by an independent review committee. Results Of the 131 patients enrolled, 130 had histologically confirmed PTCL by central review. The median number of prior systemic therapies was two (range, one to eight). The objective response rate was 25% (33 of 130), including 15% (19 of 130) with CR/CRu. Patient characteristics, prior stem-cell transplantation, number or type of prior therapies, or response to last prior therapy did not have an impact on response rate. The median duration of response was 17 months, with the longest response ongoing at 34+ months. Of the 19 patients who achieved CR/CRu, 17 (89%) had not experienced disease progression at a median follow-up of 13.4 months. The most common grade ≥ 3 adverse events were thrombocytopenia (24%), neutropenia (20%), and infections (all types, 19%). Conclusion Single-agent romidepsin induced complete and durable responses with manageable toxicity in patients with relapsed or refractory PTCL across all major PTCL subtypes, regardless of the number or type of prior therapies. Results led to US Food and Drug Administration approval of romidepsin in this indication.

PURPOSE: Liposomal anthracyclines are the present standard treatment for advanced AIDS-related Kaposi's sarcoma (KS). No effective therapies have been defined for use after treatment failure of these agents. A phase II trial was thus conducted with paclitaxel in patients with advanced KS to assess safety and antitumor activity. MATERIALS AND METHODS: A regimen of paclitaxel at a dose of 100 mg/m2 was given every 2 weeks to patients with advanced AIDS-related KS. Patients were treated until complete remission, disease progression, or unacceptable toxicity occurred. RESULTS: Fifty-six patients with advanced AIDS-related KS were accrued. Tumor-associated edema was present in 70% of patients and visceral involvement in 45%. Forty patients (71%) had received prior systemic therapy; 31 of these were resistant to an anthracycline. The median entry CD4+ lymphocyte count was 20 cells/mm3 (range, 0 to 358). A median of 10 cycles (range, 1 to 54+) of paclitaxel was administered. Fifty-nine percent of patients showed complete (n = 1) or partial response (n = 32) to paclitaxel. The median duration of response was 10.4 months (range, 2.8 to 26.7+ months) and the median survival was 15.4 months. The main side effects of therapy were grade 3 or 4 neutropenia in 61% of patients and mild-to-moderate alopecia in 87%. CONCLUSION: Paclitaxel at 100 mg/m2 given every 2 weeks is active and well tolerated in the treatment of advanced and previously treated AIDS-related KS. The median duration of response is among the longest observed for any regimen or single agent reported for AIDS-related KS. Paclitaxel at this dosage and schedule is a treatment option for patients with advanced AIDS-related KS, including those who have experienced treatment failure of prior systemic therapy.

Abstract Abstract 114 Background: Romidepsin is a potent HDAC inhibitor approved by the FDA for patients (pts) with cutaneous T-cell lymphoma who have received at least 1 prior systemic therapy. Durable clinical benefit and tolerability of romidepsin in pts with recurrent or refractory PTCL have been previously observed in a phase 2 trial conducted by the National Cancer Institute. The aim of this phase 2, single-arm, open-label registration study was to evaluate the activity of romidepsin in a larger number of pts with progressive or relapsed PTCL. Methods: Pts with histologically confirmed PTCL (PTCL NOS, angioimmunoblastic T-cell lymphoma, ALCL [ALK-1 negative], other subtypes) who failed or were refractory to ≥ 1 prior systemic therapy, and had measurable disease and ECOG performance status 0–2 were eligible. Exclusions included inadequate bone marrow or other organ function and significant cardiovascular abnormalities. Pts received romidepsin 14 mg/m2 as a 4-h IV infusion on days 1, 8, and 15 every 28 days for up to 6 cycles; treatment could be extended for stable disease (SD) or response. The primary endpoint was rate of complete response (CR + CRu) as evaluated by a central Independent Review Committee (IRC) using International Working Criteria for non-Hodgkin's lymphoma. IRC assessment consisted of a 2-step process, with initial radiographic review of images (CT, MRI) followed by an overall clinical assessment based on the radiology evaluations, photographs, and relevant clinical parameters. Secondary endpoints included objective response rate (ORR): CR + CRu + partial response (PR), investigator-assessed responses, duration of response, time to response, and safety. Results: 131 pts from 48 US, European, and Australian sites were enrolled and received at least 1 dose of romidepsin (as-treated population); 130 patients had histologically confirmed PTCL by central review. Mean age of all pts was 59.4 y (range, 20–83) and median time since diagnosis was 1.25 y (range, 0–17). Median number of prior systemic therapies was 2 (range, 1–8). 21 pts (16%) had failed a prior stem cell transplant. Responses assessed by the IRC are noted in the table below. Longest duration of response is 26+ mo and 16 (94%) of the 17 pts with a CR had not progressed as of the data cutoff (March 31, 2010). Investigator-assessed responses included 21 pts (16%) with CR + CRu, 18 pts (14%) with PR for an ORR of 30%. Currently, 13 pts continue to receive treatment (range, 10–36 cycles). Adverse events (AEs) were reported in 126 of 131 pts (96%). AEs reported in ≥ 20% of pts were nausea (59%), fatigue (41%), vomiting (38%), thrombocytopenia (38%), diarrhea (35%), pyrexia (34%), neutropenia (30%), anorexia (28%), constipation (28%), anemia (23%), and dysgeusia (21%). AEs ≥ grade 3 were reported for 86 pts (66%), with the most common (≥ 5%) being pneumonia (5%), pyrexia (5%), sepsis (5%), and vomiting (5%). 60 pts (46%) had at least 1 serious AE: the most frequently reported (≥ 5%) were pyrexia (7%), pneumonia (5%), vomiting (5%), and sepsis (5%). 22 pts (17%) withdrew due to AEs. 8 pts (6%) died within 30 days of the last dose of romidepsin; 1 death, due to sepsis, was assessed as possibly related to treatment. Conclusions: Complete and durable responses were observed with single agent romidepsin in pts with relapsed PTCL. These data support the therapeutic potential for romidepsin in relapsed PTCL and suggest that romidepsin is a strong candidate for inclusion in future novel regimens for these diseases. As of the data cutoff (March 31, 2010), the median duration of follow-up for CR is 8.2 mo.
