[PMID: 34956877 PMCID: PMC8695551 DOI: 10.3389/fonc.2021.752504] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/03/2021] [Accepted: 11/16/2021] [Indexed: 11/18/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND This retrospective cohort study aimed to evaluate the clinical outcomes of H101 combined with chemotherapy for advanced gastric carcinoma (GC) patients. METHODS The advanced GC patients, who were treated with H101 and/or chemotherapy, were enrolled and divided into three groups according to treatment method. The clinical characteristics of patients, clinical short-term and long-term outcomes, followed up, and complication were analyzed. RESULTS A total of 95 patients (30 patients in group A were treated with H101, 33 in group B patients were treated with chemotherapy, 32 patients in group C were treated with H101 combined with chemotherapy) were retrospectively reviewed. The disease control rate (DCR) and overall response rate (ORR) were significantly greater in group C (81.3% and 50.0%) than in groups A (63.3% and 30.0%) and B (66.7% and 33.3%, all p < 0.05). The 1- and 2-year survival rates and progression-free survival were significantly greater in group C than in groups A and B (all p < 0.05). There was no significant difference in complication among the three groups. At dose levels of 0.5 × 1012 vp/day, 1.0 × 1012 vp/day, and 1.5 × 1012 vp/day, complications were not increased as increased of dose. CONCLUSIONS H101 combined with chemotherapy may be a potential therapeutic option for patients with advanced GC, and prospective studies with proper assessment of toxicity will be needed in the future.

The use of combinations of monoclonal antibodies in clinical oncology. Cancer Treat Rev 2015; 41:859-67.

Abstract
Treatment with monoclonal antibodies is becoming increasingly important in clinical oncology. These antibodies specifically inhibit signaling pathways in tumor growth and/or induce immunological responses against tumor cells. By combining monoclonal antibodies several pathways may be targeted simultaneously, potentially leading to additive or synergistic effects. Theoretically, antibodies are very suitable for use in combination therapy, because of limited overlapping toxicity and lack of pharmacokinetic interactions. In this article an overview is given of preclinical and clinical data on twenty-five different combinations of antibodies in oncology. Some of these combinations have proven clinical benefit, for example the combination of trastuzumab and pertuzumab in HER2-positive breast cancer, which exemplifies an additive or synergistic effect on antitumor activity in clinical studies and the combination of nivolumab and ipilimumab, which results in significant increases in progression-free and overall survival in patients with advanced melanoma. However, other combinations may lead to unfavorable results, such as bevacizumab with cetuximab or panitumumab in advanced colorectal cancer. These combinations result in shorter progression-free survival and increased toxicity compared to therapy with a single antibody. In summary, the different published studies showed widely varying results, depending on the combination of antibodies, indication and patient population. More preclinical and clinical studies are necessary to unravel the mechanisms behind synergistic or antagonistic effects of combining monoclonal antibodies. Most research on combination therapies is still in an early stage, but it is expected that for several tumor types the use of combination therapy of antibodies will become standard of care in the near future.

Abstract
Background Although number of elderly patients with metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC) is rapidly increasing, this population is often underrepresented in clinical trials. Recently, a phase II trial demonstrated that capecitabine and oxaliplatin (XELOX) combined with bevacizumab XELOX plus bevacizumab was effective and well tolerated by elderly patients with mCRC who reside in Western countries. The aim of this study was to evaluate the safety and efficacy of XELOX plus bevacizumab for Japanese patients aged ≥75 years with mCRC. Methods This prospective, open-label phase II trial recruited patients aged ≥75 years with previously untreated mCRC between March 2010 and January 2012. Treatment consisted of 7.5 mg/kg of intravenous bevacizumab and 130 mg/m2 of oxaliplatin on day 1 of each cycle combined with 2000 mg/m2 of oral capecitabine per day on days 1–14 of each cycle. Treatment was repeated every 3 weeks until disease progression or termination of the study. The primary endpoint was progression-free survival; the secondary endpoints were toxicity, overall response rate, time-to-treatment failure, and overall survival. Results Thirty-six patients (male 58 %; median age 78 years; colon cancer 67 %) met all eligibility criteria and received at least one course of the planned treatment. The median time-to-treatment failure was 7.0 months. Twelve patients (33.3 %) experienced adverse effects (AEs) ≥ grade 3 and frequent AEs ≥ grade 3, including neutropenia (22.2 %) and neuropathy (13.9 %). Hypertension was the most frequent AE ≥ grade 3 associated with bevacizumab (11.1 %). Low baseline creatinine clearance associated significantly with the incidence of AEs ≥ grade 3. Response and disease control rates were 55.6 and 91.7 %, respectively. Median progression-free and overall survival times were 11.7 months (95 % confidence interval, 8.0–13.4 months) and 22.9 months, respectively. Conclusion XELOX combined with bevacizumab was well tolerated by selected Japanese patients aged ≥75 years with mCRC patients, and controlled clinical trials are now required to determine the survival benefit.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Oxaliplatin and either capecitabine or infusional/bolus 5-fluorouracil (5FU)-based chemotherapy + bevacizumab (XELOX + B and FOLFOX + B) represent 2 of the approved first-line treatments for advanced colorectal cancer (CRC). However, the addition of B did not offer a survival benefit compared with FOLFOX/XELOX alone in the phase III, NO16966 trial. The aim of this review was to aggregate all published data on the efficacy of XELOX and FOLFOX-B in prospective and retrospective studies as first-line therapy for stage IV CRC. METHODS We performed a systematic review, through PubMed and EMBASE, of all published studies exploring the efficacy of fluoropyrimidines + oxaliplatin + B-based chemotherapy as first-line chemotherapy in advanced CRC patients. Pooled estimates of the response rates, weighted medians of progression-free survival, and overall survival from all FOLFOX + B and XELOX + B arms were calculated. RESULTS A total of 25 studies were retrieved, with a total of 7878 patients. Overall, the pooled response rates (n=20 publications) was 49.1%. The median progression-free survival and overall survival (n=21 and 22 publications, respectively) were 10.3 and 23.7 months, respectively. The pooled median rate of surgical resection of metastases (n=13 publications) was 14%. CONCLUSIONS XELOX + B and FOLFOX + B are active combinations as first-line treatment of advanced CRC. The efficacy is confirmed for the first time from this pooled analysis of 25 trials. Both the XELOX + B and the FOLFOX + B arms represent 2 of the cornerstone combinations when B is used as first-line therapy.

Abstract
A novel combination of capecitabine, oxaliplatin, and bevacizumab was evaluated in colorectal cancer patients enrolled in a phase II clinical trial. In this retrospective analysis, plasma samples from patients receiving capecitabine, oxaliplatin, and bevacizumab were analyzed to investigate biomarkers of clinical benefit. Forty-one protein biomarkers were tested in 38 patients at baseline and after two cycles of drug administration. Correlations among analytes were evaluated by Spearman analysis. Analyte levels at baseline and changes on-treatment were correlated with progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) by univariate analysis. Multivariate analyses were determined using the Cox proportional hazard model. Time to event analyses were evaluated by Kaplan-Meier analysis and compared by log-rank test. Baseline levels of vWF and Ang-2 significantly correlated with PFS, while levels of VCAM-1, vWF, TSP-2, IL-8, MMP-2, and Ang-2 correlated with OS (P < 0.05). The fold change of IGF-1 levels from baseline to the end of cycle 2 was correlated with PFS, while fold changes of Ang-2, TSP-2, and TGF-β2 correlated with OS. A baseline signature of Ang-2, IGFBP-3, IL-6, and VCAM-1 identified a low-risk and high-risk group of patients (OS: 33.9 months vs. 18.1 months, respectively, P = 0.016). For treatment-related changes, a signature consisting of Ang-2, E-Cadherin, IL-6, MCP-1, OPN, and TGF-β1 was able to stratify patients into high- and low-risk groups (PFS: 7.7 months vs. 15.5 months, P = 0.004). Multiplex analysis of patient plasma in this trial identified several baseline- and treatment-related biomarkers associated with clinical outcome. These findings merit further exploration in larger, controlled clinical trials.

Abstract
Bevacizumab is a recombinant humanized monoclonal antibody against vascular endothelial growth factor which has been used in conjunction with other anti-cancer agents in the treatment of patients with many cancers. It remains controversial whether bevacizumab can prolong survival in cancer patients. This meta-analysis was therefore performed to evaluate effect of bevacizumab on survival in cancer patients. PubMed, EMBASE, and Web of Science databases were searched for English-language studies of randomized controlled trials comparing bevacizumab with control therapy published through February 8, 2012. Progression-free survival, overall survival, and one-year survival rate were analyzed using random- or fixed-effects model. Thirty one assessable randomized controlled trials were identified. A significant improvement in progression-free survival in cancer patients was attributable to bevacizumab compared with control therapy (hazard ratio, 0.72; 95% confidence interval, 0.68 to 0.76; p<0.001). Overall survival was also significantly longer in patients were treated with bevacizumab (hazard ratio, 0.87; 95% confidence interval, 0.83 to 0.91; p<0.001). The significant benefit in one-year survival rate was further seen in cancer patients receiving bevacizumab (odds ratio, 1.30; 95% confidence interval, 1.20 to 1.41; p<0.001). Current evidences showed that bevacizumab prolong progression-free survival and overall survival, and increase one-year survival rate in cancer patients as compared with control therapy.
