Abstract 767P
Background
Cisplatin-based concurrent chemoradiation therapy (CCRT) has been increasingly used for local advanced cervical cancer (LACC). However, recurrence is common after cisplatin-based CCRT. Several treatment strategies have been explored to further improve the outcome. We aimed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of anti-PD-1 (Toripalimab, a humanized immunoglobulin G monoclonal antibody against programmed death 1) combined with cisplatin-based concurrent IMRT for locally advanced cervical cancer.
Methods
This is an open-label, nonrandomized, prospective phase Ⅰ/II study in a single arm. Patients with untreated LACC (2018 FIGO stage IB3, IIA –IVA) were enrolled. All patients were treated with CCRT for 56 days including cisplatin (40 mg/m2, Q1W) combined with image-guidance volume modulated Arc therapy (IG-VMAT) to pelvis (50.4Gy in 28 fractions, pelvic and paraortic nodes with simultaneous nodal boost to 59.4 Gy, 28 fractions), and followed by HDR intracavitary (30-36 Gy in 5-6 fractions) brachytherapy. Toripalimab was administered intravenously at 240 mg every 2 week for 4 cycles. The primary endpoint was incidence and severity of acute adverse events up to 3 months of completing treatment. The secondary endpoints were ORR and PFS.
Results
From Sep 2020 to Sep 2022, a total of 30 patients were enrolled. Median age was 58 years [range: 23–71]. The median follow-up duration was 8.5 months [range: 3.2–27.3]. 29 patients (29/30, 96.7%) completed the treatment, 1 patient (1/30, 3.3%) terminated the treatment because of hemophagic syndrome, who with a history of liver fluke disease. ORR was 100.0% (30/30) at 3 months after treatment. Treatment-related grade 3 or 4 adverse events occurred in 80% (24/30) of patients, primarily leukopenia (63.3%), lymphopenia (36.7%), anemia (26.7%), neutropenia (16.7%). The grade 1-2 potentially immune-related adverse events were chromatosis 5 (16.7%), rash 2 (6.7%), pruritus 2 (6.7%), hypothyroidism 2 (6.7%), adrenal insufficiency 2 (6.7%), No treatment-related deaths occurred.
Conclusions
Toripalimab combined with cisplatin-based concurrent IMRT was tolerable and showed promising antitumor activity in patients with LACC, while immunotherapy-related toxicities should be carefully managed.
