Abstract:
4069 Background: BKM120 is an oral pan-class I phosphatidylinositol-3-kinase (PI3K) inhibitor, which showed promising activity in breast cancer and squamous cell carcinoma of head and neck. We prospectively investigated clinical activity, safety and biomarkers of BKM120 in advanced esophagus squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC). Methods: We conducted a multicenter phase II study of BKM120 monotherapy in patients with pretreated advanced ESCC. All the patients had a treatment history of fluoropyrimidine and platinum. BKM120 of 100 mg/day was orally administered in a 28-day cycle. A primary end-point was a disease control rate (DCR). Using Simon’s minimax two-stage design, total of 41 patients were required for primary analysis (promising DCR of 60%, non-promising one of 40%, one-sided alpha level of 10% and power of 90%). The response rate (RR), progression-free survival (PFS), overall survival (OS), and safety were also evaluated as secondary endpoints. Tumor samples for all the patients were required for gene alternation analysis in comprehensive genomic profiling assay (FoundationOne). Results: A total of 42 patients (median age, 62.5 years; performance status 0/1 = 28/14) were enrolled. One ineligible patient was excluded from primary analysis. Nineteen and two patients had SD and unconfirmed PR. DCR was 51.2% (95% CI, 35.1% to 67.1%), which met the primary endpoint of the study. Median PFS and OS was 2.0 months (95% CI, 1.8 to 3.2 months) and 9.0 months (95% CI, 6.4 to 11.7 months), respectively. Common grade 3 or 4 adverse events were anorexia, rash, hyponatremia, lipase increased, and abnormal hepatic function (including increased transaminase levels), which were profiles similar to previous studies of BKM120 monotherapy. No treatment-related deaths occurred. Further analyses of the gene alternation are ongoing. Conclusions: BKM120 monotherapy showed promising efficacy and mild toxicity profile in patients with pretreated advanced ESCC. BKM120 is worth evaluating in a further confirmatory study. Result of subgroup analyses with respect to gene alternation status will be presented. Clinical trial information: UMIN000011217.
