SHOW NOTES
By Emily Bryer, DO Resident in the department of internal medicine, University of Pennsylvania Health System
- CheckMate 142: Durable clinical benefit with nivolumab plus low-dose ipilimumab as first-line therapy in microsatellite high (MSI-H) and non-MSI-H colon cancer
- Phase 2 study included 45 patients with metastatic colorectal cancer
- Overall response rate (primary end point) was 60% and disease control rate was 84%
- Almost every patient had some response and the therapy was well-tolerated
- https://bit.ly/2TljlQE
- Tribe 2: FOLFOXIRI plus bevacizumab followed by reintroduction of FOLFOXIRI plus bevacizumab versus FOLFOX plus bevacizumab followed by FOLFIRI plus bevacizumab
- Phase 3 study of 654 patients with unresectable metastatic colorectal cancer
- Progression free survival (primary end point) of FOLFOXIRI regimen was 18.9 months, compared with 16.2 months of the FOLFOX then FOLFIRI regimen
- Side effects of FOLFOXIRI: febrile neutropenia, neutropenia, GI toxicities
- https://bit.ly/2EMKBOa
- Trifluridine/tipiracil versus placebo in patients with heavily pretreated metastatic gastric cancer (TAGS): a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, phase 3 trial
- Phase 3 study included 506 patients with metastatic gastric cancer
- Trifluridine/tipiracil (oral drug) provided a 2-month overall survival advantage (primary end point), compared with placebo
- Major side effect: neutropenia
- https://bit.ly/2tW7PMI
- Safety and clinical activity of 1L atezolizumab plus bevacizumab in a phase 1b study in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC)
- Phase 1B study included 100 patients with HCC who had not received prior therapy
- Disease control rate was high as was duration of response
- Primary outcomes included safety and efficacy
- The overall response rate was 34% and the most common side effect was hypertension
