MA23.05 - A Phase II Trial of Nintedanib in Recurrent Malignant Pleural Mesothelioma (MPM) (Now Available) (ID 943)
14:30 - 16:00 | Presenting Author(s): Antoinette Josephine Wozniak
- Abstract
- Presentation
Background
Background: Malignant pleural mesothelioma (MPM) is a disease that is resistant to chemotherapy and there remains an unmet need for better therapeutic options. Nintedanib (BIBF 1120) is an oral multikinase inhibitor impacting VEGF, FGF, PDGFR, and other kinase activity such as TGFß signaling pathways. VEGF, FGF, and TGFβ are commonly expressed in MPM. We conducted a phase II trial in patients with recurrent MPM after platinum-based chemotherapy.
Method
Methods: Patients (pts) with MPM previously treated with platinum-based chemotherapy, performance status (PS) 0-1, adequate organ function, and no contraindications to anti-angiogenic therapy were eligible for treatment. Nintedanib 200 mg twice per day was administered until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. The primary endpoint was the 4-month progression-free survival (PFS). A two-stage design was used and >4 pts had to have a PFS of ≥4 months to proceed to the second stage.
Result
Results: Twenty pts. were enrolled. The median age was 70 yrs. (32-81), 90% were male, and 80% were PS=1. The histology was 70% epithelioidal, 5% sarcomatoid, 10% biphasic, and 15% unknown. 15% had prior bevacizumab. The median follow-up is 16.4 mo. A median of 2 treatment cycles (range 1-18) were delivered. There were no responses but 40% had stable disease. The median PFS was 1.8 mo. (95% CI: 1.68, 3.55) and the PFS rate at 4 mo. was 13%. The median OS was 4.2 mo. (95% CI: 2.53, 8.74) and the OS rate at 4 mo. was 55%. Toxicities were usually grade 1-2 and included diarrhea, fatigue, edema, transaminase elevation, anorexia, nausea, vomiting and dyspnea.
Conclusion
Conclusions: The activity of nintedanib in previously treated MPM pts. was modest. The trial did not meet the primary PFS endpoint. However, there was a small subset of pts. that had prolonged stable disease for >4 months thus potentially deriving some clinical benefit from treatment.

P1.16-27 - Risk Factors Associated with a Second Primary Lung Cancer (SPLC) in Patients (Pts) with an Initial Primary Lung Cancer (IPLC) (ID 607)
09:45 - 18:00 | Author(s): Antoinette Josephine Wozniak
- Abstract
Background
The risk for development of a SPLC after treatment of an IPLC is around 1% to 2% per pt per year. The aim of this study was to characterize the risk factors associated with the development of a SPLC.
Method
Pts registered in the Karmanos Cancer Institute Tumor Registry diagnosed with an IPLC between 2000 and 2017 were included in this study. Pts with an IPLC who later developed a SPLC were matched for age, histology and stage to pts with an IPLC who did not develop a SPLC. SPLC was defined as a second lung cancer with a different pathology or if the same pathology, anatomically, molecularly, or chronologically distinct. Six variables including: stage at IPLC, histology, family history, surgery as a primary treatment for IPLC, and smoking history (determined by pack years, and continued tobacco use after first diagnosis) were reviewed. Logistic and Cox regression analyses were performed to determine the relationship of these characteristics with the development of a SPLC, and their association with overall survival (OS).
Result
121 pts with IPLC who later developed an SPLC were identified and compared to 120 pts with IPLC who did not develop a SPLC. Logistic regression analyses did not show that stage at first diagnosis, histology, family history, smoking history, and continued tobacco use after first diagnosis to be relevant for increased risk of SPLC (Table 1). Pts who were primarily treated with surgical resection had a significantly higher probability of developing a SPLC (Odds Ratio, 0.24; 95% CI, 0.12 to 0.48; p<0.001, see Table 1). Pts who did not have surgical resection as their primary mode of treatment for IPLC had a significantly higher hazard of death than those who received surgical resection (Hazard Ratio, 3.02; 95% CI, 1.99 to 4.57; p<0.001).
Conclusion
Based on our findings, pts who had surgical resection for an IPLC were found to have improved OS and a higher possibility of developing a SPLC. Stage at first diagnosis of IPLC, histology, family history, smoking history and continued use of tobacco after first diagnosis did not correlate with increased risk for SPLC. These results warrant further investigation and if confirmed could have an impact on surveillance recommendations post resection of initial lung cancers.
