Untreated RCC Patients First Line Therapy – no prior systemic treatment Formerly cytokine therapy, but currently < 10% patients receive IL-2 or IFNα Series of phase 3 trials – comparator arm IFNα Agents investigated : Sunitinib Bevacizumab Temsirolimus Sorafenib (phase 2)

24
Why pursue combination therapy with targeted agents? Limitations of present therapy- ultimately uniform “resistance” May induce “better” responses –More complete responses with potential long-term disease-free remissions –More durable remissions- extend them from 8-16 months to 24-36 months May allow use of less of each drug and bring costs down May diminish toxicity when both used at lower dose

32
Conclusions- Sunitinib + Bevacizumab While activity against was observed across multiple RCC histologies, treatment at full doses was poorly tolerated in the Phase 1 trial in RCC pts. Chronic therapy resulted in a high proportion of patients experiencing Grade 3/4 hypertension The dose level of sunitinib 50 mg with bevacizumab 10 mg/kg as is not recommended for administration to RCC patients Reasons for differences between these 2 trials : - Patient population : RCC vs solid tumors - Differences in design with CCF trial using conservative dose escalation - Median duration of therapy different 32
33
Phase 1 Trial Sunitinib + Temsirolimus 3 patients with metastatic RCC (≤ 2 prior treatment regimens accrued Study schema : first cohort treated at following dose levels Temsirolimus 25 mg IV q1week + Sunitinib 25 mg/d 4/2 weeks 2/3 patients in first cohort experienced Gr 3 toxicity, no further patients accrued Toxicity – rash, thrombocytopenia Further investigation of combination not recommended Patel et al, manuscript in press Clin GU Cancer
34
Issues with Combination Therapy with Targeted Agents Is combination better than sequential therapy? –Information on results of sequencing and efficacy of second line targeted agent –Sunitinib is active in Bevacizumab- failures –Axitinib active in Sorafenib failures –Everolimus active in TKI failures –Sorafenib and Sunitinib can induce benefit in patients that fail the other Increase Toxicity? Increase Cost? How to test this concept?

Summary Increased understanding of angiogenesis both in normal and tumor-associated situations has led to introduction of avariety of angiogenesis inhibitors and other novel molecular targeted therapies. Clear cell RCC is a model for the effects of various angiogenesis inhibitors A variety of multi-kinase and VEGF inhibitors including bevacizumab, have significant activity in recently completed phase 2 & 3 clinical trials : - TKI’s (FDA approval) : sunitinib (↑PFS, ORR), sorafenib ( PFS,? survival) - VEGF inhibitor : bevacizumab + IFNα (↑ PFS, ORR) - mTOR inhibitor (FDA approval): temsirolimus (↑ OS, poor risk)
