Abstract Background Alteration of the PI3K/AKT/mTOR pathway is a common genomic abnormality detected in triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC). Everolimus acts synergistically with eribulin in TNBC cell lines and xenograft models. This phase I trial was designed to test the safety and tolerability of combining eribulin and everolimus in patients with metastatic TNBC. Methods The primary objective of this study was to evaluate the safety and toxicities of the combination. Patients with metastatic TNBC who had up to four lines of prior chemotherapies were enrolled. The combination of eribulin and everolimus was tested using three dosing levels: A1 (everolimus 5 mg daily; eribulin 1.4 mg/m2 days 1 and 8 every 3 weeks), A2 (everolimus 7.5 mg daily; eribulin 1.4 mg/m2, days 1 and 8 every 3 weeks), and B1 (everolimus 5 mg daily; eribulin 1.1 mg/m2 days 1 and 8 every 3 weeks). Results Twenty-seven patients with median age 55 years were enrolled. Among 8 evaluable patients who received dose level A1, 4 had dose-limiting toxicities (DLTs). Among 3 evaluable patients treated with dose level A2, 2 had DLTs. Among 12 evaluable patients who received dose level B1, 4 had DLTs. The DLTs were neutropenia, stomatitis, and hyperglycemia. Over the study period, 59% had a ≥ grade 3 toxicity, 44% had ≥ grade 3 hematologic toxicities, and 22% had grade 4 hematologic toxicities. The most common hematological toxicities were neutropenia, leukopenia, and lymphopenia. Thirty-three percent had grade 3 non-hematologic toxicities. The most common non-hematological toxicities were stomatitis, hyperglycemia, and fatigue. The median number of cycles completed was 4 (range 0–8). Among 25 eligible patients, 9 patients (36%) achieved the best response as partial response, 9 (36%) had stable disease, and 7 (28%) had progression. The median time to progression was 2.6 months (95% CI [2.1, 4.0]), and median overall survival (OS) was 8.3 months (95% CI [5.5, undefined]). Conclusion Eribulin 1.1 mg/m2 days 1 and 8 every 3 weeks with everolimus 5 mg daily was defined as the highest dose with acceptable toxicity (RP2D). The combination is safe, and efficacy is modest. A post hoc analysis showed that participants that used dexamethasone mouthwash stayed on treatment for one additional cycle. Trial registration ClinicalTrials.gov, NCT02120469.

433 Background: Anti-VEGF agents and mTOR inhibitors are mainstay therapies in mRCC. Pre-clinical data suggests synergistic anti-tumor effect when combining these 2 classes. A previous phase I trial using sunitinib (S) 25 mg/d 4 wks on, 2 wks off, and temsirolimus (T) 15 mg/wk was stopped after 2 of the first 3 pts developed dose limiting toxicity (DLT). Methods: Pts with any subtype mRCC (PS 0-1) were eligible. Each cycle consisted of daily S for 14 days on, 7 days off, and weekly T. The continuous reassessment method (CRM) was used. The primary objective was to find the maximum tolerated doses (MTD) of S and T. The total planned accrual was 60 pts. Results: Accrual was stopped after 20 pts received study drugs. Median age was 63.5 years; 13 pts received prior targeted therapy, 7 pts were treatment naïve; median number of prior treatments 1 (range 0-6). Treatment cohorts (#pts, S, T, dose in mg): 2 (S12.5,T6), 1 (S25,T12.5), 1 (S12.5,T8), 8 (S12.5alt25,T9), 2 (S25,T6), 2 (S25alt37.5,T6), 2 (S37.5,T6), 2 (S37.5,T8). Dose reduction was required in 6 of 20 pts; the most common DLT was mucositis in 3 of 20 pts, followed by thrombocytopenia in 2 of 20 pts. The mean number of cycles for all pts was 6.6±5.36, with mean time on study 159±120 days. One pt experienced DLT in cycle 1 and received no study related imaging, 1 had a partial response, 16 pts had stable disease, and 2 pts had progressive disease (PD) as best response. A total of 21 grade 3/4 adverse events (AEs) attributed to drug occurred in 11 of 20 pts. Reasons for study discontinuation were PD in 12 pts, toxicity in 6 pts, and pt preference in 2 pts. There were no treatment related deaths. Conclusions: The MTD of S and T using the CRM were not reached due to premature trial closure. However, we believe S 37.5 mg/d, 2 wks on, 1 wk off, and T 8-10 mg weekly may well be close to MTD. Clinical trial information: NCT01122615.

78 Background: Previous study demonstrated that activation of RAS/MAPK pathway is associated with reduced tumor infiltrating lymphocytes and poor response to neoadjuvant chemotherapy in triple negative breast cancer (TNBC). Further study showed that inhibition of MAPK pathway with a MEK inhibitor is synergistic with anti-PD1/PD-L1 therapies. Methods: Patients with unresectable locally advanced or metastatic TNBC with ≤ 3 prior lines of therapy without prior anti-PD-1/PD-L1/PD-L2 therapies were enrolled. Treatment was started with a 2-week run in period with single agent binimetinib. Dose level 0 was binimetinib at 45 mg oral twice daily continuously and dose level -1 was 30 mg twice daily. Pembrolizumab was given at a fixed dose of 200 mg every 3 weeks at both dose levels. Phase I study was based on the standard 3+3 design. Results: A total of 12 patients were enrolled and treated in the phase 1. Five patients were enrolled at dose level 0, 1 patient withdrew prior to treatment and 1 patient was not evaluable for dose limiting toxicity (DLT). Among 3 evaluable patients, 2 patients experienced DLT with grade 3 flank pain and ALT abnormality. Additional 8 patients were enrolled at dose level -1. Out of 6 evaluable patients for DLT, there was 1 DLT observed with grade 3 AST and ALT abnormality. However, this particular patient had liver metastasis with grade 1 AST and ALT abnormality at baseline and her liver function test (LFT) normalized in 3 weeks after treatment discontinuation and oral prednisone. Other grade 1-2 common AEs included rash, LFT increase, abdominal pain, mucositis, nausea, cardiac troponin T increase without EKG change. The efficacy data will be presented at the meeting after the phase II interim analysis. Conclusions: Pembrolizumab in combination with binimetinib at 30 mg twice daily appears to be safe based on the initial cohort. Phase II part is currently ongoing with binimetinib 30 mg twice daily and pembrolizumab 200 mg every 3 weeks with a total of 23 patients planned where the safety and efficacy of this combination will be further evaluated. Clinical trial information: NCT03106415.

e11529 Background: Triple negative breast cancer cells are unable to repair double stranded DNA breaks and hence have sensitivity to platinum agents. Rapamycin acts synergistically with platinum agents to induce apoptosis and inhibit proliferation in breast cancer cell lines. Combination of RAD001 (oral mTOR inhibitor) and Carboplatin may have activity in triple-negative breast cancer. Methods: The primary objective of the study was to estimate the clinical benefit (complete remission (CR) + partial remission (PR) + stable disease (SD) >6 months) and the toxicity of this combination in women with triple negative metastatic breast cancer who have had 0-3 prior chemotherapy regimens for metastatic disease. 25 subjects were to be entered into a single stage open label Phase II study. Prior Carboplatin is allowed. Treated brain metastasis are eligible. The null hypothesis that the clinical benefit rate is ≤10% could be rejected if number of CR/PR/SD >6 months was ≥6. Originally, intravenous Carboplatin AUC 6 was to be administered every 3 weeks along with daily 5mg of RAD001 with a 3 patient run-in and then 10 mg daily. Due to a surprising amount of thrombocytopenia with this combination, the dose of Carboplatin was first amended to AUC 5 and most recently to AUC 4 with 5 mg of RAD001. Results: 18 patients have been recruited thus far. Median age is 59. There have been 1 CR, 4 PR’s and 2 SD's lasting > 6 months. One SD was achieved in a patient progressing on single agent Carboplatin at study entry. Median duration of CR+ SD +PR thus far is 13 weeks (range: 6-60 weeks). 5 patients had grade 3/4 thrombocytopenia and 4 patients had grade 3 neutropenia (no febrile neutropenia). However, since amendment of Carboplatin dose to AUC 4 the regimen has been well tolerated. 1 patient suffered from grade 3 dehydration. The estimated clinical benefit rate is 50% (95% C.I.: 24%, 76%). Median time to progression or death is 87.5 days from start of treatment; there is only 1 death to date on this study. Conclusions: The study has achieved it’s primary objective of demonstrating clinical benefit of RAD 001-Carboplatin combination in triple negative metastatic breast cancer. Dose limiting thrombocytopenia was an unexpected side effect requiring protocol amendment.

3032 Background: Irinotecan is a prodrug of the potent topoisomerase inhibitor SN-38. In animals, oral administration of irinotecan with the selective minimally absorbed P-gp inhibitor HM30181A increased the bioavailability of irinotecan. Oral administration of irinotecan may also increase the conversion to SN-38. Objectives: To determine the MTD and DLT of orally administered irinotecan in combination with HM30181A 15 mg on day 1 of a 21-day cycle. Additional objectives include determining the recommended phase 2 dose and the PK of irinotecan and SN-38. Methods: This was a phase 1 dose escalation study enrolling cohorts of 3-6 patients with advanced malignancies. Patients had Hb ≥9 gm/dL, ANC ≥ 1.5x109/L, platelets ≥ 100x109/L, adequate hepatic and renal function, ECOG 0-1 and were not homozygous for UGT1A1*28. Patients were administered HM30181A 15 mg and oral irinotecan 20, 40, 80, 120, 160, 200, 240, 280 and 320mg/m2. Results: Thirty male and female patients, mean age 60.9 (range 33-78) were enrolled into this ongoing study. The most common cancers were ovarian (6), colorectal (4), breast (4), endometrial (3), and pancreatic (3). The median number of cycles administered was 3 (range 1-9). Treatment-related Grade 3-4 AEs were experienced by 12 (40%) subjects. The most common were nausea 7 (23%), vomiting 6 (20%) and abdominal pain 3 (10%). Treatment-related SAEs were experienced by 6 (20%) patients (nausea or vomiting in 4 subjects). DLTs occurred in 2 patients at the 320 mg/m2 dose level (neutropenia and C. Difficile diarrhea) and additional patients are being enrolled at the 280mg/m2 dose level to define the MTD. Acute cholinergic diarrhea has not been observed. The best response was stable disease in 9/21 evaluable patients. PK at the three highest dose levels is summarized below. Conclusions: Oral administration of HM30181A in combination with irinotecan tablets results in pharmacologically active concentrations of SN-38. Confirmation of the MTD when dosed on a 21-day cycle is ongoing. Phase 2 studies are being planned. Clinical trial information: NTC02250157. [Table: see text]

Purpose A phase I study assessed the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, and preliminary antitumor effect of mapatumumab, a fully-human agonist monoclonal antibody to the tumor necrosis factor–related apoptosis-inducing ligand receptor 1 (TRAIL-R1, DR4), in combination with paclitaxel and carboplatin. Patients and Methods Patients with advanced solid malignancies received 3, 10, or 20 mg/kg of mapatumumab with standard doses of paclitaxel and carboplatin every 21 days for up to six cycles in the absence of disease progression. Additional cycles of paclitaxel and/or mapatumumab were permissible in selected cases. Results Twenty-seven patients (21 males), with a median age of 54 years, received mapatumumab in the following three cohorts: 3 mg/kg (n = 4), 10 mg/kg (n = 11), and 20 mg/kg (n = 12). The median number of cycles was four. Dose-limiting toxicities (DLTs) were grade 3 hypersensitivity reaction (n = 1) and neutropenic fever (n = 1), both at 10 mg/kg. Non-DLT treatment-related adverse events occurring in more than 10% of administered doses included alopecia, neutropenia, fatigue, nausea, anemia, thrombocytopenia, anorexia, and neuropathy. Paclitaxel and carboplatin exposures were similar in the presence or absence of mapatumumab. Plasma mapatumumab concentrations seemed similar to data from previous phase I monotherapy studies. Five patients (19%) achieved a confirmed radiologic partial response (including one pathologic complete response), and 12 patients (44%) had stable disease as their best response. Conclusion Mapatumumab is well-tolerated up to 20 mg/kg in combination with paclitaxel and carboplatin. There are no apparent pharmacokinetic interactions among the drugs. Preliminary anticancer activity demonstrated clinical benefit for the majority of these patients.

AbstractThe goal of this Phase I/II trial is to assess the safety and efficacy of administering durvalumab concurrent with weekly nab-paclitaxel and dose-dense doxorubicin/cyclophosphamide (ddAC) neoadjuvant therapy for stages I–III triple-negative breast cancer. The primary endpoint is pathologic complete response (pCR:ypT0/is, ypN0). The response was correlated with PDL1 expression and stromal tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (sTILs). Two dose levels of durvalumab (3 and 10 mg/kg) were assessed. PD-L1 was assessed using the SP263 antibody; ≥1% immune and tumor cell staining was considered positive; sTILs were calculated as the area occupied by mononuclear inflammatory cells over the total intratumoral stromal area. 59 patients were evaluable for toxicity and 55 for efficacy in the Phase II study (10 mg/kg dose). No dose-limiting toxicities were observed in Phase I. In Phase II, pCR rate was 44% (95% CI: 30–57%); 18 patients (31%) experienced grade 3/4 treatment-related adverse events (AE), most frequently neutropenia (n = 4) and anemia (n = 4). Immune-related grade 3/4 AEs included Guillain–Barre syndrome (n = 1), colitis (n = 2), and hyperglycemia (n = 2). Of the 50 evaluable patients for PD-L1, 31 (62%) were PD-L1 positive. pCR rates were 55% (95% CI: 0.38–0.71) and 32% (95% CI: 0.12–0.56) in the PD-L1 positive and negative groups (p = 0.15), respectively. sTIL counts were available on 52 patients and were significantly higher in the pCR group (p = 0.0167). Concomitant administration of durvalumab with sequential weekly nab-paclitaxel and ddAC neoadjuvant chemotherapy resulted in a pCR rate of 44%; pCR rates were higher in sTIL-high cancers.

AbstractThe METRIC study (NCT#0199733) explored a novel antibody–drug conjugate, glembatumumab vedotin (GV), targeting gpNMB that is overexpressed in ~40% of patients with triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) and associated with poor prognosis. The study was a randomized, open-label, phase 2b study that evaluated progression-free survival (PFS) of GV compared with capecitabine in gpNMB-overexpressing TNBC. Patients who had previously received anthracycline and taxane-based therapy were randomized 2:1 to receive, GV (1.88 mg/kg IV q21 days) or capecitabine (2500 mg/m2 PO daily d1–14 q21 days). The primary endpoint was RECIST 1.1 PFS per independent, blinded central review. In all, 327 patients were randomized to GV (213 treated) or capecitabine (92 treated). Median PFS was 2.9 months for GV vs. 2.8 months for capecitabine. The most common grade ≥3 toxicities for GV were neutropenia, rash, and leukopenia, and for capecitabine were fatigue, diarrhea, and palmar-plantar erythrodysesthesia. The study did not meet the primary endpoint of improved PFS over capecitabine or demonstrate a relative risk/benefit improvement over capecitabine.

BackgroundNeoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) with taxanes is the standard of care in triple negative breast cancer (TNBC). Intratumoral prevalence of CD8+ cytotoxic T-lymphocytes (CTLs) is associated with an improvement in relapse-free survival (RFS) and overall survival (OS), while regulatory T-cells (Treg) and myeloid derived suppressor cells (MDSC) are associated with poor survival. Higher ratio of CTL/Treg is associated with higher probability of obtaining pathological complete response (pCR), a surrogate marker for RFS. Intratumoral production of CCL5, CXCL9, CXCL10 and CXCL11 is critical for local infiltration with CTLs, while CCL22 is responsible for Treg attraction. Previous studies have shown that CXCL9 expression in the pre-treatment breast tissue is associated with a three-fold higher rate of achieving pCR. Our preclinical data show that Chemokine modulating (CKM) regimen, combining rintatolimod (TLR3 agonist), interferon (IFN)-α2b, and celecoxib (COX-2 inhibitor) increases CTL-attracting, and decreases MDSC-, Treg-favoring chemokines, increasing CTL/Treg ratio in tumor microenvironment, with preferential tumor tissue activation than adjacent healthy tissues. We hypothesize that the combination of CKM with paclitaxel will result in infiltration of TNBC with CTLs, and along with doxorubicin/cyclophosphamide (AC), result in higher pCR, translating into improved RFS and OS.MethodsIn this phase I study NCT04081389, eligibility includes age ≥18 years, confirmed resectable TNBC, radiographically measurable disease ≥1 cm, ECOG PS ≤ 2, adequate organ and marrow function. Patients with autoimmune disease, serious mood disorders, invasive carcinoma within 3 years, history of peptic ulcers or hypersensitivity to NSAIDs will be excluded. We plan to treat three patients with early stage TNBC with paclitaxel 80 mg/m2 IV weekly for 12 weeks, rintatolimod 200 mg IV, celecoxib 200 mg oral twice daily, and accelerated titration of IFN-α2b at doses 0, 5, or 10 million units (MU)/m2 [Dose Levels (DL) 1, 2 and 3 respectively] on days 1–3 (no intra-patient dose escalation) in weeks 1–3. Dose-limiting toxicity (DLT) is defined as grade 3 or higher toxicities within the first 3 weeks. Any DLT will mandate recruitment per the 3+3 model. If no DLT, three patients will be enrolled at DL 4 at 20 MU/m2 IFN- α2b. This will be followed by standard dose-dense AC, and then surgery. The primary endpoint is safety and tolerability of combination and to identify the appropriate DL of CKM and paclitaxel for extended efficacy study. The secondary endpoints include investigation of efficacy (pCR and breast MRI response), along with RFS and OS. Intratumoral biomarkers will be analyzed in an exploratory manner.ResultsN/AConclusionsN/ATrial RegistrationNCT04081389Ethics ApprovalThe study was approved by Roswell Park Comprehensive Cancer Center Institution’s Ethics Board, approval number I-73718.

1074 Background: TQB2450 is a humanized monoclonal antibody targeting programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1). Anlotinib is an antiangiogenic small molecule, multi-target tyrosine kinase inhibitor that has improved clinical outcomes in various solid tumors. This phase 1b study aims to evaluate the safety and efficacy of TQB2450 plus anlotinib for patients with advanced triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) after the failure of standard therapy. Methods: This ongoing study included a dose-escalation phase and an expansion phase. Advanced TNBC patients with prior anthracyclines and/or taxanes treatment and failed at least first-line therapy were enrolled. In the dose-escalation phase, eligible patients received anlotinib (8mg, 10mg, and 12mg, qd, days 1-14; 21 days per cycle) plus TQB2450 (1200mg, day 1; 21 days per cycle) following the conventional 3+3 design. If the starting dose of 10mg anlotinib led to ≥2 dose-limiting toxicities (DLTs), 8mg anlotinib would be administered. After the dose-escalating phase, eligible patients were enrolled into the expansion cohort. The primary endpoint was objective response rate (ORR), and the secondary endpoints were overall survival (OS), disease control rate (DCR), progression-free survival (PFS), and safety. Results: Between May 29, 2019, and December 31, 2020, in the dose-escalation phase, three patients receiving 10mg anlotinib plus 1200mg TQB2450 had no DLTs in the first cycle, neither did three patients with 12mg anlotinib plus TQB2450. Next, 28 patients with advanced TNBC received 12 mg anlotinib plus TQB2450 in the expansion phase. Finally, a total of 34 patients were included with median age of 49.5 (32-70) and median prior lines of 2 (1-6). Numbers of patients with prior platinum therapy: 16, prior anthracycline therapy: 32. The ORR was 26.47% (9/34) and DCR was 82.35% (28/34). The median PFS was 8.57 months. Seventeen patients experienced grade 3 treatment-related AEs (TRAEs). Most frequently occurring (>5%) grade 3 TRAEs were QT interval prolongation (17.65%), hypertension (14.71%), diarrhea (8.82%), hand-foot syndrome (HFS) (8.82%), and hypertriglyceridemia (5.88%). Conclusions: TQB2450 plus anlotinib showed an acceptable safety profile with promising activity for previously anthracyclines and/or taxanes-treated advanced TNBC patients. Clinical trial information: NCT03855358 .[Table: see text]
