- W569503540 abstract "e14544 Background: BEV is potent inhibitor of VEGF-mediated tumor angiogenesis. VEGF is also crucial in antineoplastic immunortolerance by blocking the generation of dendritic cells (DC). VEGF inhibition may thus result in an improved anti-cancer immune response which may be further augmented by GM-CSF, a powerful stimulator of DC generation. In a previous study, GM-CSF was able to produce clinical responses in patients (pts) suffering from refractory carcinomas (Kurbacher et al., Oncology 2005). In this trial, we investigated BEV+GM-CSF in pts with advanced solid neoplasms. Methods: 26 pts have been enrolled: epithelial ovarian cancer, n=12; breast cancer, n= 6; primary peritoneal carcinoma, n=3; hormone-refractory prostate cancer, n=2; miscellaneous, n=3. All pts have been considered refractory to or non-treatable by chemotherapy due to their baseline bone marrow and/or organ functions. Fourteen pts had previously received BEV as part of other antineoplastic regimens. BEV was applied at a fixed dose of 6 mg/kg q2w. The starting dose of GM-CSF (sargramostim) was 125 μg/d. In cases not responding and/or not achieving moderate leukocytosis (< 20 G/L), GM-CSF was increased every 4 weeks at 25 μg increments up to a maximum of 250 μg/d. Toxicity was documented according to the NCI-CTC score, responses were recorded according to the RECIST or Rustin criteria. Results: Grade (G) 3–4 hypertension was seen in 3 pts, with 1 pt experiencing cerebral stroke 6 weeks after cessation of BEV+GM-CSF. Other G3–4 toxicities were fatigue in two pts, and fever, pain, myalgia, and central nervous symptoms in either one pt. Other side-effects like injection-site reactions, proteinuria, anemia, thrombocytopenia, and constipation did not exceed G1–2. The objective response rate was 31% (1 CR, 7 PR, 10 SD, and 8 PD); the rate of pts benefiting was 69%. Eight pts failing prior BEV benefited from BEV+GM-CSF. Until today, 13 pts have died. The median time to progression is 92 days and the median overall survival is 302 days. Conclusions: BEV+GM-CSF is an active and generally well tolerated non-cytotoxic regimen in pts with advanced solid tumors. Thus, large-scaled studies of this promising treatment are warranted. No significant financial relationships to disclose." @default.
