A Phase I Study of the Combination of Pexidartinib and Sirolimus to Target Tumor-Associated Macrophages in Unresectable Sarcoma and Malignant Peripheral Nerve Sheath Tumors.
To evaluate the safety and tolerability in phase I first-in-human combination therapy with pexidartinib, an inhibitor of colony-stimulating factor-1 receptor, and sirolimus, an mTOR inhibitor, to target tumor-associated macrophage (TAM) polarization in soft tissue sarcomas (STS).. This multicenter phase I study used the time-to-event continual reassessment method (TITE-CRM) to study the combination of sirolimus, doses ranging from 2 to 6 mg, with pexidartinib, doses ranging from 600 to 1,000 mg, both provided continuously on a 28-day cycle, in patients with advanced sarcoma. A total of 24 patients [8 malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumor, 3 tenosynovial giant cell tumor (TGCT), 5 leiomyosarcoma, and 8 with other sarcoma subtypes] were enrolled. The median age was 46 years, 56% were male, and 61% had >2 prior lines of therapy.. The recommended phase II dose was 2 mg of sirolimus combined with 1,000 mg of pexidartinib daily. Of the 18 evaluable subjects, 5 experienced dose-limiting toxicities (2 elevated aspartate aminotransferase/alanine aminotransferase, 2 elevated sirolimus trough levels, and 1 grade 5 dehydration). Most common grade 2 or higher treatment-related adverse events included anemia, fatigue, neutropenia, and lymphopenia. Clinical benefit was observed in 12 of 18 (67%) evaluable subjects with 3 partial responses (all in TGCT) and 9 stable disease. Tissue staining indicated a decreased proportion of activated M2 macrophages within tumor samples with treatment.. Pexidartinib can be safely administered with sirolimus. These findings support further investigation of this combination to determine clinical efficacy. Clinicaltrials.gov identifier NCT02584647.
