A phase 1b study of sotorasib combined with panitumumab as second-line treatment of KRAS G12C-mutated colorectal cancer.

Abstract

128 Background: In the CodeBreaK 101 phase 1b study, sotorasib, a KRASG12C inhibitor, plus panitumumab, an anti-epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) monoclonal antibody, showed acceptable safety and promising efficacy for patients with chemorefractory KRAS G12C–mutated metastatic colorectal cancer: an objective response rate (ORR) of 30% and median progression-free survival (PFS) of 5.7 months were observed. Here, we evaluated sotorasib plus panitumumab in the second-line (2L) setting. Methods: CodeBreaK 101 (NCT04185883) subprotocol H includes dose exploration and expansion in multiple cohorts. Patients eligible for the 2L sotorasib plus panitumumab dose-expansion cohort were KRASG12C inhibitor–naïve and had received no more than one prior regimen for metastatic disease. Patients received oral sotorasib at 960 mg daily and IV panitumumab 6 mg/kg every 2 weeks. The primary endpoint was safety. Secondary endpoints included efficacy endpoints. Results: As of May 23, 2023, this cohort was fully enrolled; all 20 patients (50% female, median age 60.0 years) were included in this analysis. All patients received fluoropyrimidine-based treatment and 17 (85%) patients received oxaliplatin-based treatment as first-line therapy. Any-grade treatment-related adverse events (TRAEs) occurred in 19 (95%) patients. The most common any-grade TRAEs were dermatitis acneiform (60%), dry skin (55%), pruritus (45%), and hypomagnesemia (30%). Grade ≥3 TRAEs occurred in 4 (20%) patients and included fatigue, hypomagnesemia, decreased appetite, and rash (5% each). No TRAEs were grade ≥4 or resulted in treatment discontinuation or deaths. Confirmed ORR was 30% (95% CI: 11.9, 54.3). The disease control rate was 90% (95% CI: 68.3, 98.8). At a median follow-up of 11.3 months (95% CI: 5.6, not estimable), median PFS was 8.3 months (95% CI: 4.3, 14.1). Conclusions: This is the first report of safety and efficacy from a 2L cohort evaluating a KRASG12C inhibitor plus an anti-EGFR antibody in KRAS G12C-mutated metastatic colorectal cancer. The toxicities of sotorasib plus panitumumab were consistent with the expected safety profile of the individual agents and with that reported previously for this combination; the ORR was similar to that previously observed for this combination in a more chemorefractory population. The ORR and PFS of sotorasib plus panitumumab compare favorably to current standard approaches in the 2L treatment of metastatic colorectal cancer. Clinical trial information: NCT04185883 .
