LY3200882 and Capecitabine in Advanced Resistant TGF-beta Activated Colorectal Cancer (EORTC1615)

Summary

Part I of this study is designed to identify the recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D) of the combination regimen of LY3200882/capecitabine as second line treatment in patients with 5-FU or capecitabine resistant CRC. Part II is designed to obtain proof of principle of the LY3200882 plus capecitabine combination in patients with chemo-resistant CRC. The combination of LY3200882 plus capecitabine will be given as second line therapy in the phase II part of this study. Patients with chemotherapy resistant activated TGF-β signature-like tumors will have received a fluoropyrimidine (5FU or capecitabine) in the first line of chemotherapy, usually combined with oxaliplatin and, depending upon local hospital preferences or national guidelines, also bevacizumab, or cetuximab/panitumumab if the tumor is KRAS wild type. Addition of LY3200882 to capecitabine should thus result in reversal of unresponsiveness, which is the first step in exploring this concept in the clinic. Capecitabine can be used as single agent in advanced CRC and is thus attractive for this study concept. If proof of principle is achieved also other tumor types can be explored with this genetic makeup, such as non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) in second line of treatment after platinum doublet therapy in first line, usually cisplatin/carboplatin-pemetrexed in non-squamous and cisplatin/carboplatin-gemcitabine or cisplatin/carboplatin-paclitaxel in squamous type NSCLC.
