Abstract
Oxaliplatin- and fluoropyrimidine-based triplet regimens have demonstrated feasibility and efficacy in the treatment of upper gastrointestinal (UGI) cancers. Herein, we evaluate the feasibility and preliminary efficacy of biweekly nab-paclitaxel plus oxaliplatin and S-1/leucovorin (SOLAR) in chemonaïve UGI cancers. A 3 + 3 phase 1 study was conducted to determine the maximal tolerated dose (MTD) of oxaliplatin in SOLAR (nab-paclitaxel [150 mg/m2 in D1], oxaliplatin [60, 75, or 85 mg/m2 in D1], and oral S-1/leucovorin [35 mg/m2 and 30 mg bid from D1 to D7]). The secondary endpoints were overall response rate (ORR), progression-free survival (PFS), overall survival (OS), and safety. Thirteen and 6 accruals were in the dose-escalation and MTD expansion cohorts, respectively. One of 6 patients at level III experienced dose-limiting toxicity (grade 3 diarrhea), which revealed that the MTD of oxaliplatin was 85 mg/m2. After a mean of 15.9 cycles of treatment, the most common treatment-related grade 3/4 toxicities were neutropenia (57.9%) and diarrhea (21.1%). The ORR was 63.2%. The median PFS and OS were 12.5 and 24.7 months, respectively. The current study revealed the MTD of oxaliplatin and demonstrated the preliminary efficacy of SOLAR in UGI cancers, which deserves further investigation. NCT03162510.
