- Brief Summary
In this open-label, multicenter, phase II study, avelumab showed promising antitumor activity and manageable toxicity in patients with mCRC harboring dMMR/MSI-H or POLE mutation. The ORR and median PFS were 24.2% and 3.9 months, respectively, and six of eight responders were continuing avelumab treatment with durable response at the end of the analysis. Of note, the ORR and median PFS were 28.6% and 8.1 months, respectively, in patients with MSI-H by PCR or NGS, which were thought to be more reliable methods of determining the MSI status than IHC. Although no patients with POLE mutations had response to avelumab, the limitations of small sample size and variation in mutation sites need to be taken into account. TRAEs of any grade and TRAEs of grade 3 or 4 were observed in 72.7% and 18.2% of patients, respectively, which was consistent with previous studies [17]. There were two discontinuations of treatment, one because of a TRAE and the other because of a serious adverse event, probably related to treatment. There were no treatment-related deaths. The efficacy of avelumab (an anti–PD-L1 inhibitor) for mCRC with dMMR/MSI-H, specifically in patients with MSI-H by PCR or NGS, is comparable to that of pembro- lizumab and nivolumab (anti–PD-1 inhibitors) in this setting. In the KEYNOTE-016 trial, only patients with MSI-H CRC had the objective response to pembrolizumab (ORR 40%), whereas none of those with MSS CRC had the objective response [4]. A subsequent multicenter trial of pembrolizu-mab for dMMR/MSI-H CRC, the KEYNOTE-164 phase II study, resulted in an ORR of 33% and a median PFS of 4.1 months; the 12-month PFS and OS rates were 34% to 41% and 72% to 76%, respectively, according to prior line of treatment [6,7]. Nivolumab also showed promising antitumor activity in terms of ORR (31.1%) in dMMR/MSI-H CRC, and the 12-month PFS and OS rates were 50% and 73%, respectively [5]. All these favorable results in dMMR/MSI-H CRC contrast sharply with those of later-line conventional chemotherapy for overall mCRC with treatments such as regorafenib or TAS-102, which resulted in ORR of only 1% and median PFS of around 2 months [2,3]. Several phase I results from the JAVELIN Solid Tumor Trials have shown promising ORRs and disease stabilization with avelumab in various types of advanced tumors. Specifically, among 53 patients with metastatic or locally advanced previously treated solid tumors, four (8%) achieved respon-ses and 30 (57%) had SD [18]. The ORR with avelumab ranged from 6.7% to 18.2%, depending on tumor type such as metastatic or unresectable previously treated renal cell carcinoma [12], urothelial carcinoma [13], non-small cell lung cancer [15], and ovarian cancer [14]. In a phase II study of 88 patients with chemotherapy-refractory metastatic Merkel cell carcinoma [11], the ORR with avelumab was 33%, including a CR rate of 11.4%. To date, avelumab has been approved for treatment of previously treated metastatic Merkel cell carcinoma, urothelial carcinoma, and renal cell carcinoma in combination with axitinib.
