Abstract 5930
Background
VEGFR inhibition is a mainstay in the treatment of mRCC. In recent years third generation TKIs offer advantages in treatment efficacy while combinations further improve clinical activity. Treatment with Len+Eve is approved based on a randomized phase 2 study in the second line setting. Data on activity and efficacy of this combination as ATL beyond second line is limited. We aimed to report the activity of Len+Eve in mRCC patients (pts) treated per a national EAP.
Methods
Records from consecutive mRCC (pts) treated with Len+Eve in ATL per a national EAP in 7 centers, were retrospectively reviewed. We report the clinical benefit, progression free survival (PFS), overall survival (OS), and toxicity.
Results
Between 11/2016 – 12/2017, 39 mRCC pts were treated with Len+Eve. Median age 60 (39-82), male 72%. Majority of the pts (82%) underwent nephrectomy. Heng risk was good/intermediate/poor in 13% (n = 5)/41% (n = 16)/46% (n = 18). According to the treating physician, 69% (n = 27) of pts had high burden disease at treatment initiation. 13% (n = 5) were treated as second line, 51% (n = 20) as third and 36% (n = 14) as fourth line. All patients in the third and fourth line received prior immunotherapy. Clinical benefit (stable disease+ partial response) was 74% (54% partial response and 20% stable disease). Median PFS was 6 months (mos). After a median follow up time of 9 mos, 62% of the pts with a clinical benefit are still with a benefit and on treatment (range 5-16m). Most pts (72%, n = 28) are alive, with median OS not reached. Dose reduction was required in 49% of the patients due to mainly grade 3 toxicity. There were no treatment discontinuations due to toxicity.
Conclusions
Len+Eve as ATL in mRCC may benefit patients beyond second line treatment, and is associated with responses similar to those seen in a clinical trial setting in the ATL setting, with manageable toxicity.
