A phase 2, open-label, single-arm, prospective, multicenter study of nab-sirolimus plus letrozole in advanced or recurrent endometrioid endometrial cancer.

Abstract

TPS5640 Background: This clinical trial is designed to evaluate the antitumor activity of nab-sirolimus in combination with letrozole in patients with advanced or recurrent endometrioid endometrial carcinoma (EEC). Despite recent pivotal data demonstrating improved outcomes with immunotherapy plus chemotherapy, regardless of mismatch repair status, alternative nonchemotherapy-based treatment options for patients with advanced or recurrent EEC remain necessary. Dysregulation of mTOR signaling is implicated in the pathology of EEC, in which >80% harbor PTEN or PI3K/Akt/mTOR pathway alterations. Moreover, crosstalk between mTOR and estrogen receptor signaling pathways is associated with endocrine therapy resistance. GOG-3007 and other phase 2 studies have demonstrated that the combination of conventional mTOR inhibitors (mTORis) and endocrine therapy provides clinical benefit in patients with EEC. nab-Sirolimus is an mTOR inhibitor that uses albumin-bound sirolimus nanoparticles given by IV and is approved by the US FDA for malignant perivascular epithelioid cell tumor. Preclinical data of nab-sirolimus demonstrated improved tumor accumulation, mTOR inhibition, and tumor growth suppression compared with conventional mTORis. We hypothesize that the simultaneous inhibition of mTOR and ER with nab-sirolimus and letrozole, respectively, may provide a signal of synergistic antitumor activity in patients with recurrent EEC. Methods: In this phase 2, open-label, single-arm, multicenter study (NCT05997017), nab-sirolimus (100 mg/m2, intravenous, on days 1 and 8 of each 21-day cycle) and letrozole (2.5 mg, oral, daily) are administered to patients (~29 planned, Simon’s 2-stage design) with clinically confirmed, advanced, or recurrent EEC. Eligibility criteria include age ≥18 years, ≤1 prior chemotherapy-based regimen in the advanced, metastatic, or recurrent setting, prior adjuvant chemotherapy is permitted, Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance status score 0 or 1, naive to mTORi, and measurable disease (per Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors [RECIST] v1.1). The primary endpoint is best overall response rate by RECIST v1.1. Key secondary endpoints include duration of response, disease control rate (defined as complete response plus partial response plus stable disease of ≥12 weeks after start of treatment), progression-free survival, overall survival, and safety. Exploratory endpoints include correlation of baseline molecular biomarkers with clinical outcomes. The trial is open for enrollment. Clinical trial information: NCT05997017 .
