FTD-TPI, Bevacizumab, and Radioembolization With 166Ho-microspheres in Refractory Metastatic Colorectal Cancer

Extrahepatic disease progression limits clinical efficacy of individualized radioembolization for patients with refractory metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC). In the same patient population, trifluridine/tipiracil (FTD-TPI) and bevacizumab lead to disease control and overall survival benefit and may be a radiosensitizer.

The purpose of this study is to determine safety, tolerability, and activity of individualized radioembolization with 166Holmium (166Ho)-microspheres combined with FTD-TPI and bevacizumab.

Treatment and study plan

Systemic treatment (FTD-TPI and bevacizumab)

Drug

Systemic treatment (FTD-TPI and bevacizumab) administration is according to standard clinical practice. Each treatment cycle will be 28 days in duration.

One treatment cycle consists of the following:

  • Days 1-5: oral intake of FTD-TPI and bevacizumab IV infusion on day 1
  • Days 8-12: oral intake of FTD-TPI
  • Day 15: bevacizumab IV infusion

Bevacizumab 5.0mg/kg i.v. is repeated every 2 weeks. If toxicity occurs, dose modifications and dose delays should be administered and applied according to standard practice.

Radioembolization with 166-Ho microspheres

Device

Individualized 166Ho radioembolization will be performed via a catheter during angiography. Before the treatment, a scout procedure will be performed to determine individualized 166Ho dose of the treatment. Dosimetry-based treatment planning will be individualized using Q- Suite software.

In case of bilateral disease, patients will be treated in two procedures to each hemi-liver, separated by 1 month. Before the first procedure, a scout procedure will be performed in which the individualized 166Ho dose of the first and second procedure will be calculated.

Primary outcomes

  1. Hepatic objective response rate (hORR) (PERCIST 1.0)

    Time frame: Evaluated every 8 weeks after the start of treatment until 1 year after the start of treatment or until disease progression, whichever comes first.

    Hepatic objective response rate (hORR) will be assessed by Positron Emission Tomography Response Criteria in Solid Tumors (PERCIST) 1.0.

Secondary outcomes

  1. Hepatic objective response rate (hORR) (RECIST 1.1)

    Time frame: Evaluated every 8 weeks after the start of treatment until 1 year after the start of treatment or until disease progression, whichever comes first.

    Hepatic objective response rate (hORR) will be assessed by Response Evaluation Criteria In Solid Tumors (RECIST) 1.1.

  2. Overall and extra-hepatic ORR (RECIST 1.1)

    Time frame: Evaluated every 8 weeks after the start of treatment until 1 year after the start of treatment or until disease progression, whichever comes first.

    Overall and extra-hepatic ORR will be assessed by RECIST 1.1.

  3. Overall and extra-hepatic ORR (PERCIST 1.0)

    Time frame: Evaluated every 8 weeks after the start of treatment until 1 year after the start of treatment or until disease progression, whichever comes first.

    Overall and extra-hepatic ORR will be assessed by PERCIST 1.0.

  4. Serious adverse events (SAE's)

    Time frame: Evaluated every 8 weeks after start treatment during the first half year. The collection period will start from the first day of the first treatment cycle until 180 days thereafter.

    The occurrence of any (suspected unexpected) serious adverse event (SAE) that is possibly, probably or definitely related to the combined treatment.

  5. Grade ≥3 adverse events (CTCAE 5.0)

    Time frame: Evaluated every 8 weeks after start treatment during the first half year. The collection period will start from the first day of the first treatment cycle until 180 days thereafter.

    The rate of grade ≥3 adverse events (CTCAE 5.0).

  6. Occurrence of radioembolization-induced liver disease (REILD)

    Time frame: Evaluated every 8 weeks after start treatment during the first half year.

    Radioembolization-induced liver disease (REILD) is defined as a total bilirubin increase to grade ≥3 or higher according to the CTCAE v5.0, in combination with ascites and low albumin, developing at least 2 weeks after radioembolization and up to 4 months after radioembolization, in the absence of tumor progression or biliary obstruction.

  7. Radioembolization related vascular events

    Time frame: Evaluated every 8 weeks after start treatment during the first half year.

    Number of participants with a vascular event (dissection, pseudo-aneurism, thrombus etc.) that is possibly, probably or definitely related to the radioembolization.

  8. Dose reductions, dose delays of FTD-TPI

    Time frame: Evaluated during the first two cycles (each cycle is 28 days).

    The frequency of dose reductions and dose delays of FTD-TPI during the first 2 cycles.

  9. Radioembolization completion rate

    Time frame: Evaluated immediately after the radioembolization treatment.

    Defined as the successful treatment of both hemi-livers (in case of bilateral disease) according to the individualized treatment plan designed at the scout dose.

  10. Progression free survival (PFS)

    Time frame: Evaluated every 8 weeks after the start of treatment until 1 year after the start of treatment or until disease progression, whichever comes first.

    PFS is defined as time from the first day of the first treatment cycle to progression of disease or death, whichever occurs first. Progression of disease is based on tumor response as observed on radiographic imaging according to RECIST 1.1.

  11. Overall survival (OS)

    Time frame: Evaluated once per year until the end of the study (the end of study is defined as six months after the first day of the first treatment cycle (each cycle is 28 days) of the 36th evaluable participant).

    OS is defined as the time from the first day of the first treatment cycle to the date of death. Patients still alive at the analysis cut-off date are censored at the last date known to be alive. OS will be collected for all patients from the Personal Records Database (BRP), yearly during the duration of the study.

Other outcomes

  1. Dosimetry scout + post treatment 1 and 2

    Time frame: Evaluated immediately after the radioembolization treatment.

    To evaluate biodistribution / dosimetry using CT and quantitative SPECT both for scout dose imaging and post-treatment imaging. Tumor dose and normal liver dose will be calculated for each hemi-liver in the scout procedure and two post treatment scans.
