Discordance between GCIG CA-125 progression and RECIST progression in the CALYPSO trial of patients with platinum-sensitive recurrent ovarian cancer. Br J Cancer 2024; 130:425-433. [PMID: 38097739 PMCID: PMC10844635 DOI: 10.1038/s41416-023-02528-z] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/22/2023] [Revised: 11/10/2023] [Accepted: 11/27/2023] [Indexed: 02/07/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND CA-125 alone is widely used to diagnose progressive disease (PD) in platinum-sensitive recurrent ovarian cancer (PSROC) on chemotherapy. However, there are increasing concerns regarding its accuracy. We assessed concordance between progression defined by CA-125 and RECIST using data from the CALYPSO trial. METHODS We computed concordance rates for PD by CA-125 and RECIST to determine the positive (PPV) and negative predictive values (NPV). RESULTS Of 769 (79%) evaluable participants, 387 had CA-125 PD, where only 276 had concordant RECIST PD (PPV 71%, 95% CI 67-76%). For 382 without CA-125 PD, 255 had RECIST PD but 127 did not (NPV 33%, 95% CI 29-38). There were significant differences in NPV according to baseline CA-125 (≤100 vs >100: 42% vs 25%, P < 0.001); non-measurable vs measurable disease (51% vs 26%, P < 0.001); and platinum-free-interval (>12 vs 6-12 months: 41% vs 14%, P < 0.001). We observed falling CA-125 levels in 78% of patients with RECIST PD and CA-125 non-PD. CONCLUSION Approximately 2 in 3 women with PSROC have RECIST PD but not CA-125 PD by GCIG criteria. Monitoring CA-125 levels alone is not reliable for detecting PD. Further research is required to investigate the survival impact of local therapy in radiological detected early asymptomatic PD.

Abstract
Ovarian cancer remains the leading cause of death from gynecological cancer. Survival is significantly related to the stage of the disease at diagnosis. Of quite importance is primary cytoreductive surgery, having as a goal to remove all visible tumor tissue, and is the standard primary treatment in combination with platinum-based chemotherapy for patients with advanced ovarian carcinoma. Neo-adjuvant chemotherapy (NACT) has been implemented mostly in treating advanced disease, with studies performed having numerous limitations. Data extrapolated from these studies have not shown inferiority survival of NACT, compared to primary debulking surgery. The role of NACT is of particular interest because of the intrinsic mechanisms that are involved in the process, which can be proven as therapeutic approaches with enormous potential. NACT increases immune infiltration and programmed death ligand-1 (PDL-1) expression, induces local immune activation, and can potentiate the immunogenicity of immune-exclude high grade serous ovarian tumors, while the combination of NACT with bevacizumab, PARP inhibitors or immunotherapy remains to be evaluated. This article summarizes all available data on studies implementing NACT in the treatment of ovarian cancer, focusing on clinical outcomes and study limitations. High mortality rates observed among ovarian cancer patients necessitates the identification of more effective treatments, along with biomarkers that will aid treatment individualization.

Effectiveness and Safety of Niraparib as Neoadjuvant Therapy in Advanced Ovarian Cancer With Homologous Recombination Deficiency (NANT): Study Protocol for a Prospective, Multicenter, Exploratory, Phase 2, Single-Arm Study. Front Oncol 2022; 12:852772. [PMID: 35402241 PMCID: PMC8984467 DOI: 10.3389/fonc.2022.852772] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/11/2022] [Accepted: 02/28/2022] [Indexed: 01/13/2023] Open
Abstract
Background Ovarian cancer (OC) is a heterogeneous gynecological malignancy with a poor prognosis as the majority of patients are diagnosed at an advanced stage. Neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NACT) followed by interval debulking surgery (IDS) is recommended for patients who cannot achieve optimal cytoreduction or cannot endure primary debulking surgery (PDS). As there is an increased risk of chemoresistance for platinum-based NACT, it is important to investigate an alternative option. A Poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase inhibitor (PARPi), niraparib, has shown high anti-tumor activity, especially in homologous recombination deficiency (HRD) positive patients with OC. Thus, niraparib as a neoadjuvant treatment agent may help improve surgery accessibility and create survival benefits. Methods This multicenter, prospective, single-arm, open-label, phase II study plans to recruit 53 patients (aged 18-75 years) with newly diagnosed HRD positive, unresectable (Fagotti score ≥ 8 or upper abdominal computed tomography [CT] score ≥ 3) International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics (FIGO) stage III-IV OC. The HRD status was detected by next-generation sequencing and HRD positive patients will be counseled for study participation. Enrolled patients will receive niraparib capsules QD (200mg or 300mg per day) for two cycles (4 weeks/cycle). After neoadjuvant niraparib treatment, patients exhibiting complete response (CR), partial response (PR), or stable disease (SD) will undergo tumor reduction surgery and subsequent standard carboplatin/paclitaxel-based chemotherapy. The primary objectives include the objective response rate (ORR) and R0 resection rate. The rate of treatment interruption/termination and progression-free survival (PFS) will be secondary objectives. The study uses Simon’s optimal two-stage design (24 and 21 patients for the first and second stage respectively). The data manager will record all adverse events (AEs). Discussion This is the first prospective study to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of niraparib in neoadjuvant treatment for advanced OC. The result of this study will provide a solid base for further expanding the clinical applications of the PAPRi and exploring more therapeutic possibilities for patients with HRD positive advanced OC.
