Abstract 3608
Background
Based on results of the phase 2 BOLT study (NCT01327053), sonidegib 200 mg once daily (QD) was approved in the US for patients with locally advanced basal cell carcinoma (laBCC) not amenable to curative surgery or radiotherapy and in Switzerland and Australia also for metastatic BCC (mBCC). Here we report the final 42-month results—the longest follow-up data available from a hedgehog inhibitor (HHI) clinical trial—for a preplanned prespecified subgroup analysis for the primary endpoint, the objective response rate (ORR), in patients receiving 200 mg.
Methods
BOLT was a double-blind phase 2 study where HHI treatment–naïve patients with laBCC not amenable to curative surgery/radiotherapy, or with metastatic BCC (mBCC) were randomized 1:2 to sonidegib 200 or 800 mg QD, respectively. The primary endpoint was ORR. Analyses were performed at 12, 30, and 42 months after the last patient was randomized.
Results
For prespecified groups at 42 months, the ORRs for 200 mg QD were consistent for laBCC aggressive (59.5%; n = 37) and laBCC nonaggressive (51.7%; n = 29) histologies; male (43.8%; n = 48) and female (54.8%; n = 31); patients aged <65 years (59.4%; n = 32) and those aged ≥65 years (40.4%; n = 47); white (49.3%; n = 71) and nonwhite patients (37.5%; n = 8); and for patients not receiving (51.8%; n = 56) and those receiving (39.1%; n = 23) gastric pH agents. Subgroup analyses by disease strata (laBCC [56.1%; n = 66] vs mBCC [7.7%; n = 13]) and Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance status (0 [60%; n = 50] vs ≥ 1 [29.6%; n = 27;]) for the primary ORR endpoint showed heterogeneous results like those reported at 30 months. The safety/tolerability profile was consistent across 42 months with no new AEs emerging.
Conclusions
These results confirmed the consistency of treatment effect for sonidegib 200 mg QD at 42 months across several preplanned subgroups, including age, disease histology, gender, race, and use of gastric pH agents.
