BACKGROUND
For patients with progressive breast cancer brain metastasis (BCBM) after whole brain radiotherapy (WBRT), few options exist. Patupilone is an epothilone that crosses the blood-brain barrier. We hypothesized that patupilone would produce a 35% 3-month CNS progression-free survival in women with BCBM after WBRT.
METHODS
This multicenter phase II trial included 2 cohorts. Group A included women with progressive BCBM after WBRT. Group B was an exploratory cohort of patients with either leptomeningeal metastases or untreated brain metastases. The primary goal was to observe a 35% 3-month CNS progression-free survival in Group A. The sample size was 45 for Group A and 10 for Group B. Patients received patupilone 10 mg/m(2) once every 3 weeks until progression. Responses were scored according to the Macdonald criteria.
RESULTS
Fifty-five patients (45 in Group A, 10 in Group B) enrolled. In Group A, the 3-month CNS progression-free survival was 27%, the median overall survival was 12.7 months, and the overall response rate was 9%. In Group B, which enrolled 5 patients with leptomeningeal disease and 5 with no prior WBRT, no responses occurred and 8 patients had CNS progression before 3 months. Systemic responses occurred in 15% of patients, including a complete response in liver metastases. Diarrhea occurred in 87% of patients; 25% had grade 3 and 4 adverse events.
CONCLUSIONS
Patupilone in patients with BCBM did not meet the efficacy criteria and had significant gastrointestinal toxicity. Further study of brain-penetrant agents is warranted for patients with CNS metastases from breast cancer.
背景
对于接受全脑放疗(WBRT)后发生进展性乳腺癌脑转移(BCBM)的患者,治疗选择有限。帕他泊隆是一种能够穿过血脑屏障的埃坡霉素。我们假设帕他泊隆可使 WBRT 后发生 BCBM 的女性达到 3 个月时中枢神经系统(CNS)无进展生存率为 35%。
方法
该多中心 2 期临床试验包括 2 个队列。A 组纳入 WBRT 后发生进展性 BCBM 的女性。B 组为探索性队列,包括软脑膜转移或未经治疗的脑转移患者。主要目标是观察 A 组中 3 个月时 CNS 无进展生存率达到 35%。A 组的样本量为 45 例,B 组为 10 例。患者接受帕他泊隆 10mg/m²,每 3 周 1 次,直至进展。根据 MacDonald 标准评价缓解情况。
结果
共 55 例患者(A 组 45 例,B 组 10 例)入组。A 组中,3 个月时 CNS 无进展生存率为 27%,中位总生存时间为 12.7 个月,总缓解率为 9%。B 组中,5 例患者患有软脑膜疾病,5 例患者未接受过 WBRT,无缓解发生,8 例患者在 3 个月内出现 CNS 进展。15%的患者出现了全身缓解,包括肝转移的完全缓解。87%的患者出现腹泻,25%的患者出现 3 级和 4 级不良事件。
结论
帕他泊隆在 BCBM 患者中未达到疗效标准,且具有显著的胃肠道毒性。对于乳腺癌脑转移的患者,需要进一步研究能够穿透血脑屏障的药物。
