We determined the safety and efficacy of sorafenib in patients with castrate resistant prostate cancer (CRPC).
Sixty-four chemotherapy and radiotherapy naïve patients with CRPC received 400 mg sorafenib orally twice daily in 6-week cycles. All patients had bone metastasis, while 16 had lymph node-, 9 had liver-, and 10 had lung metastases. Treatment was continued until disease progression or excessive toxicity.
All patients were assessable for response. A median of 6.4 consecutive cycles was administered per patient. Median overall survival for all patients was 14.6 months (confidence interval [CI], 8.2-22.2). No complete response (CR) occurred. Of the 35 patients with measurable extraosseous disease, 7 (20%) had a partial response. Overall, 13 patients (20.3%; 95% CI, 4%-32%) achieved a 50% or greater reduction (partial response [PR]) in prostate-specific antigen (PSA) level after two cycles. The median response duration was 2.5 months (95% CI, 1.4 to 4.8), and the median time to progression was 5.9 months (95% CI 3.6 to 7.6). There was no treatment-related death. Toxicities were well tolerated.
Sorafenib demonstrated some antitumor activity. Further studies are necessary to determine a subgroup of patients who would likely respond better to sorafenib.
我们评估了索拉非尼在去势抵抗性前列腺癌(CRPC)患者中的安全性和疗效。
64 例化疗和放疗初治的 CRPC 患者接受 400mg 索拉非尼口服,每日 2 次,6 周为 1 个周期。所有患者均有骨转移,16 例有淋巴结转移,9 例有肝转移,10 例有肺转移。治疗持续至疾病进展或出现无法耐受的毒性。
所有患者均进行了疗效评估。中位每位患者接受了 6.4 个连续周期的治疗。所有患者的中位总生存期为 14.6 个月(置信区间[CI],8.2-22.2)。无完全缓解(CR)。在 35 例可测量的骨外疾病患者中,7 例(20%)有部分缓解。总体而言,13 例患者(20.3%;95%CI,4%-32%)在 2 个周期后前列腺特异性抗原(PSA)水平下降 50%或更多(部分缓解[PR])。中位缓解持续时间为 2.5 个月(95%CI,1.4 至 4.8),中位无进展时间为 5.9 个月(95%CI,3.6 至 7.6)。无治疗相关死亡。毒性反应可耐受。
索拉非尼显示出一定的抗肿瘤活性。需要进一步的研究来确定哪些患者可能对索拉非尼有更好的反应。
