14P - Gut and oral microbiota profiling in patients (pts) with hormone receptor-positive (HR+) metastatic breast cancer (MBC) receiving pembrolizumab (P) plus eribulin (E): CALADRIO (ID 32)

Abstract

Background

Changes occurring in host-associated microbial communities (i.e. microbiota) may modulate responses to checkpoint blockade immunotherapy. We previously showed that anti-programmed cell death 1 protein P added to microtubule-targeting chemotherapy E has an encouraging antitumor activity in HR+ MBC pts regardless of programmed death-ligand 1 status. The CALADRIO study assessed the impact of gut and oral microbiota on clinical outcome of pts from the KELLY trial.

Methods

The phase 2 KELLY trial investigated the efficacy and safety of P plus E in 44 pts with pre-treated, HR+, HER2-negative, locally recurrent inoperable or MBC (NCT03222856). Fecal and saliva samples were prospectively collected at baseline (BL), after 3 cycles, and end of treatment from a subset of pts. Tumor response was grouped into clinical benefit (CB; complete or partial responses, or stable disease [SD] ≥24 weeks) and no CB (SD <24 weeks or progressive disease) as per RECIST 1.1. Shotgun metagenomic and 16S rRNA gene sequencing were used to characterize fecal and saliva microbiota profiles, respectively. Microbiota data were analyzed using MEGAHIT, LEfSe, Wilcoxon ranked sum, and PERMANOVA methods.

Results

A total of 58 fecal and 68 saliva samples were collected. Overall P+E did not cause significant gut or oral microbiota perturbations, indicating any drug-related microbial toxicity. Across all pts, dominant gut microbiota genera included Bacteroides and Faecalibacterium, with a common oral microbe, Prevotella, also present. LeFSe analysis suggested CB was driven in part by gut-associated Bacteroides fragilis and oral-associated Streptococcus with an abundance ≥50%. Pts experiencing CB had gut and oral microbiota richness at BL and a decrease over treatment potentially related to the antibiotic usage. Several typical oral microbes in both saliva and fecal samples were also observed, suggesting a potential translocation along the oral-gut axis.

Conclusions

These preliminary findings suggest potential avenues for downstream microbiota pts stratification before commencement of treatment. Further investigation is required in larger cohorts.

205TiP - ATRACTIB: A Phase 2 Trial of First-Line (1L) Atezolizumab (A) in Combination with Paclitaxel (P) and Bevacizumab (B) in Metastatic Triple-Negative Breast Cancer (mTNBC) (ID 213)

Abstract

Background

The IMpassion130 and KEYNOTE-355 trials have established a substantial benefit from adding an immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI) to 1L chemotherapy (CT) for mTNBC with programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1)–positive tumors. However, many patients (pts) still have a poor outcome with a high unmet medical need. Preclinical and small ongoing clinical studies in TNBC provided encouraging results on the synergism between ICIs, vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF)-targeted agents, and standard CT without adding significant toxicity. ATRACTIB is evaluating the safety and efficacy of A (anti-PD-L1 antibody) combined with P and B (a VEGF-targeted drug) as 1L regimen for mTNBC pts irrespective of PD-L1 status.

Trial design

ATRACTIB is an international, investigator-initiated, open-label, single-arm, phase 2 trial (NCT04408118). Pts aged ≥18 years, with unresectable locally advanced or mTNBC, Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance status of 0–1, who had received no prior systemic therapy or ≥12 months since (neo)adjuvant taxane-based CT are eligible. Pts receive A (840 mg IV, days 1, 15) with P (90 mg/m2 IV, days 1, 8, 15), and B (10 mg/kg IV, days 1, 15) on each 28-day cycle until disease progression, unacceptable toxicity, or patient withdrawal. The primary endpoint is investigator-assessed progression-free survival (PFS) as per RECIST v.1.1. Secondary efficacy endpoints include objective response rate (ORR), clinical benefit rate, time until response, response duration, overall survival, and best percentage change in the sum of the diameters of measurable tumors; safety and tolerability as per NCI-CTCAE v.5.0. Exploratory endpoints are PFS and ORR as per immune-related RECIST, and analysis of predictive biomarkers. The primary analysis consists of median PFS estimation (H0: ≤7 months; H1: ≥9.5 months) based on the exponential maximum likelihood estimation test. A sample size of 100 pts is needed to attain 80% power at a nominal one-sided α level of 5%. An interim analysis is planned for assessing the safety and feasibility in the first 20 pts who have completed a 3-month follow-up or reached the end of study. This trial was opened to accrual in October 2020.
