A multicenter, phase II trial of GC1118 , a novel anti‐EGFR antibody, for recurrent glioblastoma patients with EGFR amplification
Cancer Medicine(2023)
Abstract
We evaluated the therapeutic efficacy of GC1118, a novel anti-epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) monoclonal antibody, in recurrent glioblastoma (GBM) patients with EGFR amplification.This study was a multicenter, open-label, single-arm phase II trial. Recurrent GBM patients with EGFR amplification were eligible: EGFR amplification was determined using fluorescence in situ hybridization analysis when a sample had both the EGFR/CEP7 ratio of ≥2 and a tight cluster EGFR signal in ≥10% of recorded cells. GC1118 was administered intravenously at a dose of 4 mg/kg once weekly. The primary endpoint was the 6-month progression-free survival rate (PFS6). Next-generation sequencing was performed to investigate the molecular biomarkers related to the response to GC1118.Between April 2018 and December 2020, 21 patients were enrolled in the study and received GC1118 treatment. Eighteen patients were eligible for efficacy analysis. The PFS6 was 5.6% (95% confidence interval, 0.3%-25.8%, Wilson method). The median progression-free survival was 1.7 months (range: 28 days-7.2 months) and median overall survival was 5.7 months (range: 2-22.0 months). GC1118 was well tolerated except skin toxicities. Skin rash was the most frequent adverse event and four patients experienced Grade 3 skin-related toxicity. Genomic analysis revealed that the immune-related signatures were upregulated in patients with tumor regression.This study did not meet the primary endpoint (PFS6); however, we found that immune signatures were significantly upregulated in the tumors with regression upon GC1118 therapy, which signifies the potential of immune-mediated antitumor efficacy of GC1118.
