Abstract 2549
Background
The androgen receptor (AR) is expressed in ∼ 90% of ER+ BC. Androgen-based therapies have had response rates up to 20-25%, but are not in common use due to poor tissue selectivity, potential aromatization to estrogen, and emergence of ER-targeted agents. RAD140 is an oral nonsteroidal selective AR modulator (SARM) with tissue-selective AR agonist activity in BC cells but attenuated activity in other androgen-responsive tissues. RAD140 inhibited the growth of multiple in vitro and in vivo AR+/ER+ BC models.
Methods
This is a phase 1 study of RAD140 with a 3 + 3 design. The primary objective is safety and to determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD); secondary objectives are pharmacokinetics and antitumor activity. Key eligibility criteria are: ER+/HER2- and inoperable/metastatic BC (mBC), post-menopausal, and ineligible for standard therapy. AR status is by immunohistochemistry (IHC). Sex hormone-binding globulin (SHBG) and serum prostate specific antigen (PSA) are used to assess AR-engagement.
Results
Dose escalation (n = 16 patients, pts) has been completed. Median age = 58 years, 88% visceral disease, and 94% AR+ by IHC. Median number of prior lines of therapy for mBC = 5; prior fulvestrant 88%, aromatase inhibitor (i) 100%, CDK4/6i 94%, mTORi/PI3Ki 50%, chemotherapy 94%. Dose levels were 50 mg (n = 6), 100 mg (n = 7), and 150 mg (n = 3) QD. Median time on treatment = 8 (range <1-25) wk. The most frequent (>30%) adverse events were elevated ALT/AST, decreased weight/appetite, and constipation. Dose-limiting toxicities (all grade 3 and reversible) were hypophosphatemia (n = 2; 150 mg) and elevated ALT/AST (n = 2; 50 and 100 mg). No drug-related deaths occurred. There was 1 partial response (PR, 100 mg) and 2 pts with stable disease ≥12 wk. The time to PR was 15.9 wk and the duration was 8.6+ wk. SHBG decreased in 12/12 pts and PSA increased in 10/14 pts, most notably in the pt with PR who remains on treatment at 7 mo.
Conclusions
The provisional MTD for RAD140 is 100 mg QD. RAD140 is a novel oral AR-targeted agent for treatment of ER+ mBC with an acceptable safety profile and preliminary evidence of target engagement and antitumor activity. NCT03088527.
