Abstract 103P
Background
Advanced gastrointestinal (GI) tumors, such as colorectal, gastric and pancreatic cancers (CRC, GC, and PC), and esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC), 20%-50% with liver metastases (LMs). The prognosis of CRC with unresectable LMs is poor, with a 5-year survival rate of less than 5%. Previous trials showed that anlotinib plus chemotherapy has promising clinical activity and a tolerable safety profile for advanced CRC and ESCC, especially with LMs. In this phase II trial, we assessed the efficacy and safety of anlotinib plus chemotherapy as first-line treatment for LMs GI tumors.
Methods
Patients with unresectable LMs GI tumors and without previous systemic treatment would be divided into cohort A (CRC), cohort B (ESCC), and cohort C (other GI tumors, such as PC, GC, etc.). In cohort A, CRC patients received induction therapy (6 cycles, q3w): anlotinib (12 mg, PO, QD, days 1-14), oxaliplatin (130 mg/m2, IV, day 1), capecitabine (850 mg/m2, PO, BID, days 1-14). Patients without PD and radical resection received anlotinib and metronomic capecitabine (500 mg, PO, BID, days 1-21, q3w) maintenance until PD or unacceptable toxicity. The primary endpoint was ORR (RECIST 1.1). Secondary endpoints were DoR, PFS, OS, DCR, radical resection rate for LMs, and safety.
Results
As of August 14, 2023, 45 patients were enrolled in cohort A, the median age was 67 years (35-75), 66.7% male, 91.1% ECOG-PS 1 and 60% had LMs only. After induction therapy, 7 patients received surgical resection. Currently, there are 26 patients still receiving treatment, of which 8 are undergoing maintenance therapy, with a maximum duration of treatment (DOT) of 12.8 months. Of 35 evaluable patients in cohort A, ORR and DCR were 54.3% and 97.1% (PR, n=19; SD, n=15, 13 SD had reduced tumor size). The median PFS was not reached. 34 patients had TEAEs and ≥ grade 3 TEAEs (33.3%) mainly included neutropenia (11.1%), hypertension (6.7%), and white blood cell decreased (6.7%).
Conclusions
Anlotinib plus chemotherapy as first-line treatment has shown promising efficacy and acceptable safety and maybe a favorable option for advanced LMs CRC tumors.
