Abstract

BACKGROUND: Preclinical studies have demonstrated that IDH1-mutant (IDHmt) gliomas harbor a BRCAness phenotype with a defect in homologous recombination that confers PARP inhibitor sensitivity. METHODS: The phase II component of ABTC 1801 examined the efficacy of the combination of pamiparib (BeiGene BGB-290) with low dose metronomic temozolomide in recurrent IDHmt grade 2 and 3 gliomas. In this two-stage design, Arm A enrolled patients who had failed two lines and Arm B a single line of alkylator therapy. Pamiparib and temozolomide doses based on phase I results was 60 mg BID and 20 mg daily. Primary endpoint was objective response rate (ORR). RESULTS: 39 patients (Arm A 15, Arm B 24) enrolled in the phase II. Median age was 45 (range: 25-69), 56% male, and median KPS 90. 72% of tumors were MGMT methylated. There were no confirmed responses in Arm A and one in Arm B; neither arm met the threshold for additional accrual. One-third of subjects discontinued treatment for reasons other than progressive disease. Estimated median PFS was 5.8 months in Arm A and 11.3 months in Arm B. Seven subjects (Arm A 3, Arm B 4) developed DLT during treatment. Grade 3+ toxicity was principally hematologic; 9 patients had grade 3 anemia, 7 grade 3 and 3 grade 4 neutropenia, and 3 grade 3 thrombocytopenia. In enhancing and non-enhancing tumors from 8 surgical arm patients, median unbound drug tumor/plasma ratios were 0.98 and 0.92, respectively; and median unbound pamiparib tumor concentrations were 209 and 188 nmol/L (or nmol/kg), respectively, which were >20-fold the in vitro IC50 for PARP inhibition. CONCLUSIONS: While pamiparib appeared to achieve sufficient pharmacologically active concentrations in both enhancing and non-enhancing tumors, combination with temozolomide did not produce a meaningful ORR in IDHmt recurrent gliomas. Cumulative hematologic toxicity was substantial.
