Abstract 4933
Background
The addition of docetaxel to cisplatin and 5FU (DCF) has shown a promising efficacy in Epitopes-HPV01 study with 4 of first 8 consecutive patients presenting a long-lasting complete response. Then, the prospective, multicenter, Epitopes-HPV02 trial, settled the modified DCF regimen as a new standard of care in metastatic or non-resectable locally advanced recurrent anal squamous cell carcinoma (ASCC). Here we present updated results of Epitopes-HPV02 study, as well as final results of Epitopes-HPV01 study.
Methods
Epitopes-HPV02 was a phase 2 study supported by the GERCOR and FFCD collaborative oncological groups, performed in 25 academic and community hospitals in France. Epitopes-HPV01 was a real-life based cohort study performed by the regional cancer network of Franche-Comté, France, and including one university hospital, 5 community hospitals, and 1 private center. Both studies included patients with histologically confirmed ASCC, with metastatic disease, or with unresectable local recurrence after chemoradiotherapy, and treated with DCF regimen.
Results
In Epitopes-HPV02, 69 patients were enrolled between Sept 2014-Dec 2016, and 66 patients were included for analysis; while 51 patients were included between Sept 2012- January 2019 in Epitopes-HPV01, and 49 patients for analysis. Pooled analysis of 115 patients showed a median PFS of 12 months (95% CI 10.6-16.0) [11.0 months (9.3-16.0) in -HPV02, and 12.7 months (11.2-34.5) in -HPV01, (p = 0.14)]. The median OS was 50.2 months (26.0-120.0) [not reached in -HPV02, and 50.2 months (21.4-120.0) in -HPV01 (p = 0.73)]. ORR was 87.7% (89% in -HPV02 and 85.1% in -HPV01) with 40.7% of CR (45% in -HPV02 and 34% in -HPV01). No difference was observed between standard DCF (n = 54) and modified DCF (n = 58) in OS (p = 0.93) and PFS (p = 0.52).No treatment-related death was observed in both studies. The median PFS in second-line was 5.9 months (3.3-7.1).
Conclusions
Pooled analysis of Epitopes-HPV01 and 2 results, confirm mDCF as the regimen of choice in fit patients with metastatic or locally advanced recurrent ASCC.
