Introduction: Treatment options for patients with epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR)-mutated non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) with disease progression on/after osimertinib and platinum-based chemotherapy are limited.
Methods: CHRYSALIS-2 Cohort A evaluated amivantamab+lazertinib in patients with EGFR exon 19 deletion- or L858R-mutated NSCLC with disease progression on/after osimertinib and platinum-based chemotherapy. Primary endpoint was investigator-assessed objective response rate (ORR).
Background: Amivantamab, an EGFR-MET bispecific antibody, is the first approved targeted therapy for patients with EGFR Ex20ins NSCLC after prior platinum-based chemotherapy-a population with historically poor outcomes before amivantamab approval. As antitumor activity in single-arm studies typically focuses on responders, the evaluation of outcomes in patients with stable disease (SD) as best response is of clinical interest.
Patients And Methods: Among 114 patients with post-platinum EGFR Ex20ins NSCLC in CHRYSALIS (NCT02609776; data cutoff: March 30, 2021), response was assessed by blinded independent central review via RECIST v1.
Background: Amivantamab has been approved for the treatment of patients with advanced non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) with epidermal growth factor receptor () exon 20 insertions who have had disease progression during or after platinum-based chemotherapy. Phase 1 data showed the safety and antitumor activity of amivantamab plus carboplatin-pemetrexed (chemotherapy). Additional data on this combination therapy are needed.
View Article and Find Full Text PDFAmivantamab has demonstrated durable responses with a tolerable safety profile in non-small cell lung cancer with EGFR exon 20 insertions (Ex20ins) who progressed after prior platinum chemotherapy. Data supporting the amivantamab recommended phase II dose (RP2D) in this patient population are presented. Pharmacokinetic (PK) analysis and population PK (PopPK) modeling were conducted using serum concentration data obtained following amivantamab intravenous administration (140-1,750 mg).
View Article and Find Full Text PDFBackground: Amivantamab, a fully humanized EGFR-MET bispecific antibody, has antitumor activity in diverse EGFR- and MET-driven non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and a safety profile consistent with associated on-target activities. Infusion-related reaction(s) (IRR[s]) are reported commonly with amivantamab. We review IRR and subsequent management in amivantamab-treated patients.

Preclinical studies indicate that targeting CD38-positive cells with daratumumab may synergistically enhance atezolizumab's antitumor activity by increasing the effector T-cell activity.
Methods: This phase 1b-2 study included a safety run-in (one cycle of daratumumab plus atezolizumab) and randomized phases (daratumumab plus atezolizumab versus atezolizumab alone).
Introduction: JNJ-64041757 (JNJ-757) is a live, attenuated, double-deleted -based immunotherapy expressing human mesothelin. JNJ-757 was evaluated in patients with advanced NSCLC as monotherapy (phase 1) and in combination with nivolumab (phase 1b/2).
Methods: Patients with stage IIIB/IV NSCLC who had received previous therapy were treated with JNJ-757 (1 × 10 or 1 × 10 colony-forming units [CFUs]) alone (NCT02592967) or JNJ-757 (1 × 10 CFU) plus intravenous nivolumab 240 mg (NCT03371381).
Purpose: Non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) with epidermal growth factor receptor () exon 20 insertion (Exon20ins) mutations exhibits inherent resistance to approved tyrosine kinase inhibitors. Amivantamab, an EGFR-MET bispecific antibody with immune cell-directing activity, binds to each receptor's extracellular domain, bypassing resistance at the tyrosine kinase inhibitor binding site.
Methods: CHRYSALIS is a phase I, open-label, dose-escalation, and dose-expansion study, which included a population with Exon20ins NSCLC.

Background: The safety and immunogenicity of JNJ-64041809 (JNJ-809), a live-attenuated, double-deleted Listeria monocytogenes (LADD Lm)-based immunotherapy targeting 4 relevant prostate cancer antigens, was evaluated in a phase 1 study in patients with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC).
Methods: Men with progressive mCRPC who had received ≥2 prior approved therapies were enrolled. Primary study objectives were to determine the recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D) and to evaluate the safety and immunogenicity of JNJ-809.
Background: As with other alkylating agents, cardiac dysfunction can occur with trabectedin therapy for advanced soft tissue sarcomas (STS) or recurrent ovarian cancer (ROC) where treatment options for advanced disease are still limited. Cardiac safety for trabectedin monotherapy (T) for STS or in combination with pegylated liposomal doxorubicin (T+PLD) for ROC was evaluated in this retrospective postmarketing regulatory commitment.
Methods: Patient data for multiple cardiac-related treatment-emergent adverse events (cTEAEs) were evaluated in pooled analyses of ten phase 2 trials, one phase 3 trial in STS (n = 982), and two phase 3 trials in ROC (n = 1231).
exon 20 insertion driver mutations (Exon20ins) in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) are insensitive to EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKI). Amivantamab (JNJ-61186372), a bispecific antibody targeting EGFR-MET, has shown preclinical activity in TKI-sensitive -mutated NSCLC models and in an ongoing first-in-human study in patients with advanced NSCLC. However, the activity of amivantamab in Exon20ins-driven tumors has not yet been described.

The exploratory analysis evaluated the impact of prior pegylated liposomal doxorubicin (PLD) therapy in patients who participated in a randomized, open-label study comparing combination therapy of trabectedin and PLD vs PLD alone in third-line recurrent ovarian cancer (ROC). These exploratory analyses showed that prior treatment with PLD in ROC does not impact the response and survival rates nor does it increase toxicities or negatively influence survival and response rates in both treatment groups.

Methods: Women with advanced-relapsed epithelial ovarian cancer were randomly assigned 1: 1 to intravenous infusions of either T + PLD (trabectedin 1.
Background: The results of the randomized, phase 3 ET743-SAR-3007 trial demonstrated that trabectedin had a significantly longer progression-free survival (PFS) compared with dacarbazine in patients with advanced leiomyosarcoma/liposarcoma after the failure of prior chemotherapy. Patients randomized to trabectedin received a 24-hour intravenous infusion either in an inpatient or outpatient setting. Herein, the authors reported the safety, efficacy, and patient-reported outcomes based on first infusion site of care.
View Article and Find Full Text PDFBackground: We performed a randomized phase 3 study of trabectedin versus dacarbazine in previously-treated patients with liposarcoma/leiomyosarcoma (LPS/LMS).
Methods: Patients were randomized 2:1 to trabectedin (n = 384) or dacarbazine (n = 193) administered intravenously every 3 weeks. The primary objective was overall survival (OS).
Purpose Trabectedin is metabolized by the liver and has been associated with transient, noncumulative transaminase elevation. Two recent studies further characterize hepatic tolerability with trabectedin therapy: a phase 1 pharmacokinetic study (Study #1004; NCT01273493) in patients with advanced malignancies and hepatic impairment (HI), and a phase 3 study (Study #3007; NCT01343277) of trabectedin vs. dacarbazine in patients with advanced sarcomas and normal hepatic function.

Purpose: This multicenter study, to our knowledge, is the first phase III trial to compare trabectedin versus dacarbazine in patients with advanced liposarcoma or leiomyosarcoma after prior therapy with an anthracycline and at least one additional systemic regimen.
Patients And Methods: Patients were randomly assigned in a 2:1 ratio to receive trabectedin or dacarbazine intravenously every 3 weeks. The primary end point was overall survival (OS), secondary end points were disease control-progression-free survival (PFS), time to progression, objective response rate, and duration of response-as well as safety and patient-reported symptom scoring.
Purpose: Combination therapy with trabectedin and docetaxel was evaluated in patients with advanced malignancies.
Methods: In this open-label phase 1 study, docetaxel (60 or 75 mg/m(2); 1-h intravenous infusion) was given on day 1 of a 21-day cycle in combination with escalating doses of trabectedin (0.4-1.
Purpose: To evaluate the pharmacokinetics, safety and survival of trabectedin, metabolized primarily by cytochrome P450 (CYP)3A4 enzyme, when coadministered with rifampin (CYP3A4 inducer) or ketoconazole (CYP3A4 inhibitor) in adult patients with advanced solid tumors.
Methods: Two phase 1/2a, 2-way crossover studies were conducted. For rifampin study, 12 patients were randomized (1:1) to sequence of a cycle of trabectedin (1.
Purpose: Originally isolated on the basis of its ability to induce p53, serdemetan showed potent activity in various preclinical models, inducing S-phase arrest and apoptosis in TP53 wild-type and mutant tumors. This study evaluated the safety and tolerability of serdemetan, determined the pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic profiles, and identified a recommended phase II dose.
Patients And Methods: Patients (71) with refractory solid tumors were allocated to dose-escalating cohorts (3+3 patients each) and received oral serdemetan once daily in 21-day cycles to determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and dose-limiting toxicities (DLT).
