Objective Response Rate of 32% with Pertuzumab Plus Trastuzumab in HER2-Amplified Metastatic Colorectal Cancer
On March 8, 2019, a Phase 2 clinical trial evaluating the efficacy and safety of the anti-HER2 monoclonal antibody combination of pertuzumab (Perjeta) plus trastuzumab (Herceptin) in patients with HER2-amplified metastatic colorectal cancer who had received multiple prior lines of therapy was published in the medical journal The Lancet Oncology.
Trial Design
This Phase 2 trial administered treatment to patients every 3 weeks, with the treating physician evaluating objective response rate.
Background: Given established evidence of efficacy of anti-HER2 antibodies pertuzumab and trastuzumab in HER2-positive breast cancer, gastric cancer, and other solid tumors, this trial was conducted based on the hypothesis that these agents might also benefit patients with HER2-amplified metastatic colorectal cancer.
Results
Efficacy: Among patients with HER2 amplification, the objective response rate (ORR) was 32%.
Safety: Most common adverse events: diarrhea, fatigue, and nausea. Less common adverse events: hypokalemia and abdominal pain. No treatment-related deaths occurred.
Based on the trial results, heavily pretreated patients with HER2-amplified metastatic colorectal cancer demonstrated acceptable tolerability and meaningful antitumor activity with this combination therapy.
