Integrins mediate invasion and angiogenesis in prostate cancer bone metastases. We conducted a phase II study of cilengitide, a selective antagonist of α(v)β(3) and α(v)β(5) integrins, in non-metastatic castration resistant prostate cancer with rising PSA.
Patients were observed for 4 weeks with PSA monitoring, and then treated with 2,000 mg IV of cilengitide twice weekly until toxicity/progression. PSA, circulating tumor cells (CTCs) and circulating endothelial cells (CECs) were monitored each cycle with imaging performed every three cycles. Primary end point was PSA decline by ≥ 50%. Secondary endpoints were safety, PSA slope, time to progression (TTP), overall survival (OS), CTCs, CECs and gene expression.
16 pts were enrolled; 13 were eligible with median age 65.5 years, baseline PSA 8.4 ng/mL and median Gleason sum 7. Median of three cycles was administered. Treatment was well tolerated with two grade three toxicities and no grade four toxicities. There were no PSA responses; 11 patients progressed by PSA after three cycles. Median TTP was 1.8 months and median OS has not been reached. Median pre- and on-treatment PSA slopes were 1.1 and 1.8 ng/mL/month. Baseline CTCs were detected in 1/9 patients. CTC increased (0 to 1; 2 pts), remained at 0 (2 pts) or decreased (23 to 0; 1 patient) at progression. Baseline median CEC was 26 (0-61) and at progression, 47 (15-148). Low cell counts precluded gene expression studies.
Cilengitide was well tolerated but had no detectable clinical activity. CTCs are of questionable utility in non-metastatic prostate cancer.
整合素在前列腺癌骨转移中的侵袭和血管生成中起介导作用。我们对非转移性去势抵抗性前列腺癌(伴 PSA 升高)进行了 cilengitide 的 II 期研究,cilengitide 是 α(v)β(3)和 α(v)β(5)整合素的选择性拮抗剂。
患者接受 4 周 PSA 监测,然后每两周接受 2000mg 的 cilengitide 静脉滴注 2 次,直到出现毒性/进展。每个周期监测 PSA、循环肿瘤细胞(CTC)和循环内皮细胞(CEC),每三个周期进行一次影像学检查。主要终点为 PSA 下降≥50%。次要终点为安全性、PSA 斜率、无进展生存期(TTP)、总生存期(OS)、CTC、CEC 和基因表达。
共纳入 16 例患者,13 例符合条件,中位年龄 65.5 岁,基线 PSA 8.4ng/ml,中位 Gleason 评分 7 分。中位治疗周期为 3 个周期。治疗耐受性良好,有 2 例 3 级毒性,无 4 级毒性。无 PSA 反应,11 例患者在 3 个周期后 PSA 进展。中位 TTP 为 1.8 个月,中位 OS 尚未达到。中位治疗前和治疗时 PSA 斜率分别为 1.1 和 1.8ng/ml/月。基线时,9 例患者中有 1 例检测到 CTC。CTC 增加(0 至 1;2 例),在进展时保持在 0(2 例)或减少(23 至 0;1 例)。基线时中位 CEC 为 26(0-61),进展时为 47(15-148)。低细胞计数使基因表达研究无法进行。
cilengitide 耐受性良好,但无明显临床活性。在非转移性前列腺癌中,CTC 的作用尚不确定。
