Abstract 389P
Background
Antiangiogenic drugs have demonstrated synergistic effect with anti-PD-1 antibody in advanced triple negative breast cancer (TNBC). Anlotinib is an oral multi-target tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) that strongly inhibits VEGFR, PDGFR, FGFR, and c-kit. Preclinical studies showed that metronomic chemotherapy inhibited angiogenesis and enhanced the efficacy of immunotherapy in TNBC via modulation of the tumor immune microenvironment. We hereby conducted a phase II trial to investigate the efficacy and safety of sintilimab (anti-PD-1 antibody) plus anlotinib and metronomic chemotherapy as a potential novel therapeutic strategy in advanced TNBC and explore potential biomarkers.
Methods
The eligible patients who had received no more than two lines of chemotherapy for metastatic disease were enrolled and received sintilimab (200 mg iv q3w) and anlotinib (12 mg po d1-14 q3w) plus capecitabine (500 mg po, tid) or vinorelbine (40 mg po, tiw) until disease progression or intolerable toxicity. The primary endpoint is objective response rate (ORR) and secondary endpoints are disease control rate (DCR), progression free survival (PFS), and overall survival (OS).
Results
As of April 2024, a total of 43 patients were enrolled, and all patients were evaluable for efficacy. 3 patients (6.97%) achieved complete response (CR). 7 patients (16.27%) achieved partial response (PR). 25 patients (58.14%%) achieved stable disease (SD). The ORR is 23.26% (95%CI 0.12-0.39) and DCR is 81.40% (95%CI 0.67- 0.92). The median PFS was 5.55 months (95%CI 3.33-7.77). The median OS was 24.03 months (95%CI 19.74-28.32). The most common grade 1 or 2 adverse events (AEs) include elevated thyroid stimulating hormone, elevated bilirubin, hand-foot syndrome, leukopenia, nausea. Grade 3 AEs include elevated bilirubin (2.33%, 1/43), hypertension (2.33%, 1/43) and herpes zoster (2.33%, 1/43). No grade 4 or 5 AEs occurred.
Conclusions
Our date showed that sintilimab in combination with anlotinib plus metronomic chemotherapy have shown favorable efficacy and acceptable safety profile in patients with advanced TNBC. Clinical trial information: ChiCTR2100044725.
