简要总结

Gestational trophoblastic neoplasias (GTN) are characterized by the persistence of elevated hCG titers after complete uterine evacuation of a partial hydatidiform mole (PHM) or a complete hydatidiform mole.

Low-risk GTN patients (FIGO score ≤ 6) are commonly treated with single agent treatment (methotrexate or actinomycin-D) The cure rate, assessed by hCG normalization, is obtained in 65 to 75% of patients with these agents GTN patients with resistance to these treatments are treated with another single agent drug or polychemotherapy regimens, such as EMA-CO or BEP regimen.

Chemotherapy standard regimens are old and toxic for these young lady patients, with potential long term effects detrimental for further maternity and quality of life

There is a strong rational for investigating the anti-PDL1 monoclonal antibody avelumab in chemoresistant GTN patients. Several elements suggest that the normal pregnancy immune tolerance is "hijacked" by GTN cell for proliferating :

  • Spontaneous regressions of metastastic GTN are regularly observed, thereby the role of immune system for rejecting GTN cells.
  • Strong and constant overexpression of PDL1 and NK cells has been found in all subtypes and settings of GTN tumors from French reference gestational trophoblastic center.
  • Complete and durable responses to pembrolizumab were reported in 3 patients with multi-chemoresistant GTN in United Kingdom.
  • Three cases of hCG normalization with avelumab in 6 patients with chemo-resistant GTN enrolled in TROPHIMMUN cohort A (resistant to a mono-chemotherapy).
  • Cytotoxicity of avelumab is mediated through antibody dependent cell cytotoxicity (ADCC) by NK cells.

结局指标

主要结局

Incidence of Dose limiting toxicities of methotrexate and avelumab combination in low-risk GTN patients as first line.

时间窗: treatment duration 3 months (median estimation)

Safety run-in: dose-limiting toxicities (DLT) will be determined during the first 3 months after the start of treatment

Rate of patients with successful normalization of hCG

时间窗: treatment duration 3 months (median estimation)

The main endpoint of this study is the rate of patients with successful normalization of hCG allowing for treatment discontinuation (hCG normalization). Patients will continue on treatment until the weekly hCG assays reach the institutional normal threshold, and then for 3 additional cycles, or otherwise will be stopped in the case of resistance, defined as a rise (a \> 20% rise between two assays, observed twice on three consecutive weekly assays) or a plateau (a \< 10% decrease between two assays observed three times on four consecutive weekly assays) in the hCG level, or unacceptable toxicity and/or death.

次要结局

  • To assess the efficacy of avelumab and methotrexate in terms of relapse free survival in low-risk GTN patients as first line setting after an initial hCG normalization that enabled study treatment discontinuation(during treatment (3 months median), 1 month after the end of treatment and 36 months after the end of treatment)
  • To assess the efficacy of avelumab and methotrexate in terms of overall survival in low-risk GTN patients as first line setting(during treatment (3 months median), 1 month after end of treatment and 36 months after end of treatment)
  • Evaluate the safety of methotrexate and avelumab combination administration(during treatment duration (3 months), 1 month after end of treatment and 36 months after end of treatment (median : 8 months 1/2).)
  • To assess the efficacy of avelumab and methotrexate in terms of resistance-free survival in low-risk GTN patients as first line setting(during treatment (3 months median), 1 month after the end of treatment and 36 months after the end of treatment)
