Abstract 1399
Background
Lenvatinib (LEN) is a multikinase inhibitor of VEGFR1–3 and other targets. We report data from phase Ib dose-finding and phase II expansion cohorts of LEN + etoposide + ifosfamide in pts with r/r osteosarcoma.
Methods
Pts were aged 2 to ≤ 25 years with r/r osteosarcoma and <2 prior VEGF-targeted therapies. The phase Ib starting dose was LEN 11 mg/m2/day + ifosfamide 3000 mg/m2 + etoposide 100 mg/m2 daily/3 days. On determination of the recommended phase II dose (RPh2D) of LEN + chemo, pts were enrolled into the phase II expansion cohort. Primary end points: phase Ib, RPh2D; phase II, 4 months’ progression-free survival (PFS-4).
Results
In the phase Ib dose-finding cohort (n = 22), pts received LEN 11 mg/m2 (n = 7) and 14 mg/m2 (n = 15) + chemo. Dose-limiting toxicities were: Grade (G) 4 thrombocytopenia (n = 1; LEN 11 mg/m2), G4 thrombocytopenia and G3 epistaxis (n = 1; LEN 14 mg/m2), G2 oral dysesthesia, G3 muscle spasm, and G2 back pain (n = 1; LEN 14 mg/m2). RPh2D was LEN 14 mg/m2 + chemo. In the expansion cohort (n = 20), the median number of LEN cycles received was 4 (range: 1–7). As reported in the database, the most frequent treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs) were platelet count decreased/thrombocytopenia (50%/30%), neutropenia/neutrophil count decreased (45%/25%), anemia (45%), nausea (40%), ALT increased, diarrhea, and white blood cell count decreased (30% each). Most frequent G ≥ 3 TEAEs were neutropenia/neutrophil count decreased (45%/25%), platelet count decreased/thrombocytopenia (40%/20%), white blood cell count decreased (30%), and anemia (25%). Pneumothorax was observed in the dose-finding cohort (n = 6) and expansion cohort (n = 1); 2 (dose-finding cohort) were ≥G3; and 1 was post-thoracotomy. 4 Pts (dose-finding cohort) discontinued treatment due to TEAEs. There were no treatment-related fatal serious AEs. In the dose-finding combination cohort, 12/18 evaluable pts (66.7%) achieved PFS-4. In the phase II expansion cohort, 5/8 evaluable pts (62.5%) achieved PFS-4.
Conclusions
The combination of RPh2D LEN (14 mg/m2) + chemo had a manageable safety profile with promising preliminary evidence of efficacy.
