Safety and efficacy of nintedanib for the treatment of metastatic colorectal cancer.
    Expert opinion on investigational drugs, 2017, Volume: 26, Issue:11

    Nintedanib (BIBF 1200) is an oral tyrosine kinase inhibitor that targets the vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGFR), platelet-derived growth factor (PDGFR) and fibroblast growth factor (FGFR) receptors. It is approved in Europe in combination with docetaxel for patients with advanced lung adenocarcinoma who have progressed to first-line chemotherapy. However, its role in the treatment of metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC) is uncertain. Recent results from the LUME-Colon 1 pivotal phase III trial showed only a marginal increase in progression free survival over placebo in refractory mCRC patients, with a toxicity profile similar to other antiangiogenic agents, and no benefit in overall survival. Areas covered: The aim of this review is to summarize the pharmacology, efficacy and safety profile of nintedanib in the context of mCRC, and to provide some perspective regarding the role of this drug in clinical practice. Expert commentary: Nintedanib provides limited clinical benefit in refractory CRC and its use in this clinical setting is not warranted. Efforts shall continue to pursue the identification of predictive biomarkers that allow the selection of subpopulations with a greater likelihood to benefit from this therapeutic approach, in order to improve the benefit-risk and cost-benefit ratios of this and other antiangiogenic agents.

First-line therapy for treatment-naive patients with advanced/metastatic renal cell carcinoma: a systematic review of published randomized controlled trials.
    Anti-cancer drugs, 2016, Volume: 27, Issue:5

    In the recent years, a number of targeted therapies have been approved for first-line treatment of patients with metastatic renal cell carcinoma. A systematic review was conducted to assess the clinical efficacy, safety and effect of all first-line treatments evaluated to date on health-related quality of life (HRQoL). A systematic search of Embase, Cochrane and MEDLINE databases was performed to identify randomized controlled trials (1980-2015) evaluating any targeted therapy/immunotherapy against placebo or any other targeted intervention/immunotherapy in treatment-naive patients with metastatic renal cell carcinoma. Conference proceedings from major cancer congresses (2007-2015) were handsearched. Sixteen randomized controlled trials were identified, mostly phase III. Overall, targeted therapies were associated with either improved [sunitinib, bevacizumab+interferon α (IFNα) and temsirolimus] or comparable (sorafenib) progression-free survival (PFS) versus IFNα monotherapy. Sunitinib demonstrated comparable PFS and overall survival to pazopanib, comparable PFS to sorafenib and shorter PFS compared with bevacizumab+IFNα (although no conclusions were made with regard to superiority/inferiority). Compared with sorafenib, tivozanib demonstrated a significantly longer PFS, and both tivozanib and axitinib demonstrated higher response rates. Nintedanib demonstrated comparable PFS and overall survival to sunitinib in a phase II trial. Temsirolimus, sunitinib and sorafenib treatment led to better HRQoL versus IFNα; pazopanib was associated with better HRQoL versus sunitinib. No direct meta-analyses or indirect treatment comparison analysis were undertaken because of noncomparability of the trials. In general, targeted therapies demonstrated favourable clinical efficacy and improved HRQoL compared with IFNα monotherapy. The newer therapies, tivozanib and axitinib (but not nintedanib), appeared to exhibit greater clinical benefit (response rate) than older tyrosine kinase inhibitors.

Nintedanib plus docetaxel as second-line therapy in patients with non-small-cell lung cancer: a network meta-analysis.
    Future oncology (London, England), 2015, Volume: 11, Issue:3

    Nintedanib plus docetaxel has proven an overall survival benefit over docetaxel monotherapy in second-line treatment of non-small-cell lung cancer of adenocarcinoma histology in the LUME-Lung 1 pivotal trial. No published trials have previously compared nintedanib plus docetaxel with agents – other than docetaxel – that are approved second-line treatments for non-small-cell lung cancer.. The relative efficacy of nintedanib plus docetaxel versus second-line agents was evaluated by conducting a network meta-analysis of progression-free survival and overall survival.. Nine suitable studies were identified. The estimated probability of nintedanib plus docetaxel being the best treatment with regard to overall survival was 70% (versus 16% for pemetrexed, 10% for docetaxel and 3% for erlotinib). Results for progression-free survival were similar.. In patients with advanced non-small-cell lung cancer of adenocarcinoma histology, results suggest that nintedanib plus docetaxel offers clinical benefit compared with docetaxel alone, when used as second-line treatment, and suggests that this combination may also add clinical benefit compared with erlotinib in this patient group.

A phase I/II, open-label, randomised study of nintedanib plus mFOLFOX6 versus bevacizumab plus mFOLFOX6 in first-line metastatic colorectal cancer patients.
    Annals of oncology : official journal of the European Society for Medical Oncology, 2015, Volume: 26, Issue:10

    This randomised, open-label, phase I/II study evaluated the efficacy and safety of nintedanib, an oral, triple angiokinase inhibitor, combined with chemotherapy, relative to bevacizumab plus chemotherapy as first-line therapy in patients with metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC).. Patients with histologically confirmed mCRC (adenocarcinoma), an Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance status ≤ 2 and adequate organ function were included. Patients were randomised 2:1 to receive nintedanib 150 mg or 200 mg b.i.d. plus mFOLFOX6 (oxaliplatin 85 mg/m(2), l-leucovorin 200 mg/m(2) or d,l-leucovorin 400 mg/m(2), 5-fluoruracil bolus 400 mg/m(2) followed by 2400 mg/m(2), every 2 weeks) or bevacizumab (5 mg/kg every 2 weeks) plus mFOLFOX6. During phase I, patients underwent a 3 + 3 dose-escalation schema to determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of nintedanib in combination with mFOLFOX6. The primary end point was progression-free survival (PFS) rate at 9 months. Objective response (OR) was a secondary end point.. The nintedanib recommended phase II dose was 200 mg b.i.d. plus mFOLFOX6 based on safety data from phase I (n = 12). Of 128 patients randomised in the phase II part, 126 received treatment (nintedanib plus mFOLFOX6, n = 85; bevacizumab plus mFOLFOX6, n = 41). PFS at 9 months was 62.1% with nintedanib and 70.2% with bevacizumab [difference: -8.1% (95% confidence interval -27.8 to 11.5)]. Confirmed ORs were recorded in 63.5% and 56.1% of patients in the nintedanib and bevacizumab groups, respectively. The incidence of adverse events (AEs) considered related to treatment was 98.8% with nintedanib and 97.6% with bevacizumab; the incidence of serious AEs was 37.6% with nintedanib and 53.7% with bevacizumab. The pharmacokinetics of nintedanib and the components of mFOLFOX6 were unaffected by their combination.. Nintedanib in combination with mFOLFOX6 showed efficacy as first-line therapy in patients with mCRC with a manageable safety profile and further studies in this population are warranted.

Randomized Phase II trial of nintedanib, afatinib and sequential combination in castration-resistant prostate cancer.
    Future oncology (London, England), 2014, Volume: 10, Issue:2

    The aim of this article was to evaluate afatinib (BIBW 2992), an ErbB family blocker, and nintedanib (BIBF 1120), a triple angiokinase inhibitor, in castration-resistant prostate cancer patients.. Patients were randomized to receive nintedanib (250 mg twice daily), afatinib (40 mg once daily [q.d.]), or alternating sequential 7-day nintedanib (250 mg twice daily) and afatinib (70 mg q.d. [Combi70]), which was reduced to 40 mg q.d. (Combi40) due to adverse events. The primary end point was progression-free rate at 12 weeks.. Of the 85 patients treated 46, 20, 16 and three received nintedanib, afatinib, Combi40 and Combi70, respectively. At 12 weeks, the progression-free rate was 26% (seven out of 27 patients) for nintedanib, and 0% for afatinib and Combi40 groups. Two patients had a ≥50% decline in PSA (nintedanib and the Combi40 groups). The most common drug-related adverse events were diarrhea, nausea, vomiting and lethargy.. Nintedanib and/or afatinib demonstrated limited anti-tumor activity in unselected advanced castration-resistant prostate cancer patients.

Therapeutic impact of Nintedanib with paclitaxel and/or a PD-L1 antibody in preclinical models of orthotopic primary or metastatic triple negative breast cancer.
    Journal of experimental & clinical cancer research : CR, 2019, Jan-11, Volume: 38, Issue:1

    Triple negative breast cancer (TNBC) is an aggressive malignancy with poor prognosis, in part because of the current lack of any approved molecularly targeted therapy. We evaluated various combinations of three different drugs: nintedanib, an antiangiogenic TKI targeting VEGF receptors, paclitaxel (PTX), or a PD-L1 antibody, using models of orthotopic primary or advanced metastatic TNBC involving a metastatic variant of the MDA-MB-231 human cell line (called LM2-4) in SCID mice and two mouse lines (EMT-6 and a drug-resistant variant, EMT-6/CDDP) in immunocompetent mice. These drugs were selected based on the following: PTX is approved for TNBC; nintedanib combined with docetaxel has shown phase III clinical trial success, albeit in NSCLC; VEGF can act as local immunosuppressive factor; and PD-L1 antibody plus taxane therapy was recently reported to have encouraging phase III trial benefit in TNBC.. Statistical analyses were performed with ANOVA followed by Tukey's Multiple Comparison Test or with Kruskal-Wallis test followed by Dunn's Multiple Comparison Test. Survival curves were analyzed using a Log-rank (Mantel Cox) test. Differences were considered statistically significant when p values were < 0.05.. Toxicity analyses showed that nintedanib is well tolerated when administered 5-days ON 2-days OFF; PTX toxicity differed in mice, varied with cell lines used and may have influenced median survival in the metastatic EMT6/CDDP model; while toxicity of PD-L1 therapy depended on the cell lines and treatment settings tested. In the LM2-4 system, combining nintedanib with PTX enhanced overall antitumor efficacy in both primary and metastatic treatment settings. In immunocompetent mice, combining nintedanib or PTX with the PD-L1 antibody improved overall antitumor efficacy. Using the advanced metastatic EMT-6/CDDP model, optimal efficacy results were obtained using the triple combination.. These results suggest circumstances where nintedanib plus PTX may be potentially effective in treating TNBC, and nintedanib with PTX may improve PD-L1 therapy of metastatic TNBC.

Nintedanib Is a Highly Effective Therapeutic for Neuroendocrine Carcinoma of the Pancreas (PNET) in the Rip1Tag2 Transgenic Mouse Model.
    Clinical cancer research : an official journal of the American Association for Cancer Research, 2015, Nov-01, Volume: 21, Issue:21

    Pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (PNET) represent a rare but challenging heterogeneous group of cancers with an increasing incidence over the last number of decades. Herein, we report an in-depth evaluation of the new antiangiogenic small-molecule tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) nintedanib in the preclinical Rip1Tag2 transgenic mouse model of neuroendocrine carcinoma of the pancreas (insulinoma).. We have assessed the antiangiogenic and antitumor activity of nintedanib, in comparison with other antiangiogenic TKI, by treating Rip1Tag2 transgenic mice with different treatment schedules complemented with histopathologic, cell biologic, and biochemical analyses.. Prolonged nintedanib treatment of Rip1Tag2 mice has led to a strong suppression of angiogenesis, accompanied by a reduced tumor burden, which translated into a significant prolongation of survival. Despite nintedanib's inhibitory action on perivascular cells, the blood vessels remaining after therapy displayed a considerably mature phenotype with tight perivascular cell coverage and preserved perfusion. Nintedanib treatment did not increase local tumor invasiveness or metastasis to the liver and pancreatic lymph nodes--a phenomenon that has been observed with antiangiogenic treatments of Rip1Tag2 transgenic mice in other laboratories. In contrast with the strong reduction in blood microvessel densities, nintedanib did not have any impact on tumor lymphangiogenesis.. Based on our findings, we propose the clinical evaluation of the antiangiogenic drug nintedanib as a new treatment modality for PNET patients, notably in a direct comparison with already established therapeutic regimens, such as sunitinib.
