Real-world evidence of Trastuzumab Deruxtecan (T-DXd) Efficacy in HER2-expressing gynecological malignancies

This retrospective single-center study identified 10 patients with HER2-expressing (IHC 2+/3+) recurrent or metastatic gynecological cancers who received trastuzumab deruxtecan (5.4 mg/kg IV every 3 weeks). The cohort had a median progression-free survival of 5.4 months (95% CI 0.8-9.8). Five patients had a partial response, one had stable disease at 12 weeks, and four had disease progression at initial assessment. Clinical benefit was observed mainly in tumors with HER2 IHC 3+.

Reported effects: median PFS 5.4 mo [0.8–9.8], n=10 Β· partial responses 5, n=10 Β· +2 more

Key findings
  • 10 patients with recurrent/metastatic HER2-expressing gynecological malignancies were treated with T-DXd.
  • Histologies included uterine neoplasms (n=5), cervical squamous carcinoma (n=1) and ovarian cancers (n=4).
  • Median age was 65.4 years (25th-75th percentile, 58.1-75.2 years).
  • HER2 by IHC: 5 patients were 3+ and 5 patients were 2+.
  • Median number of prior therapy lines was 4 (range 2-6); 2 uterine serous carcinoma patients were pretreated with trastuzumab and 4 patients had prior immunotherapy.
  • Dose: T-DXd 5.4 mg/kg IV every 3 weeks until progression/toxicity.
  • Median progression-free survival (PFS) in the cohort was 5.4 months (95% CI 0.8-9.8 months).
  • Responses: 5 patients had partial response (including 2 previously treated with trastuzumab), 1 patient had stable disease at 12 weeks, 4 patients had disease progression at initial assessment.
  • Most patients who derived clinical benefit had HER2 IHC 3+ expression.
Limitations: Retrospective, single-center design; Very small sample size (n=10); No control or comparator arm; Heterogeneous mix of gynecologic histologies; Heavily pre-treated population limits generalizability; Limited/absent reporting of safety or adverse event data in the abstract; Potential selection and reporting bias inherent to retrospective series.

Trastuzumab Deruxtecan for Human Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor 2-Expressing Advanced or Recurrent Uterine Carcinosarcoma (NCCH1615): The STATICE Trial

Journal of clinical oncology : official journal of the American Society of Clinical Oncology Β· May 2023 Β· single-arm phase II trial

Trastuzumab-deruxtecanuterine carcinosarcoma

This phase II study tested trastuzumab deruxtecan in people with recurrent uterine carcinosarcoma whose tumors expressed HER2. The study found tumor responses in both the HER2-high and HER2-low groups, and the median progression-free survival and overall survival were reported for each group. Side effects were common, including some serious adverse events and pneumonitis/interstitial lung disease, but the authors said they were generally manageable with monitoring.

Reported effects: ORR by central review 54.5% [32.2–75.6], n=22 Β· ORR by central review 70% [34.8–93.3], n=10 Β· +6 more

Key findings
  • Central-review ORR was 54.5% in the HER2-high group and 70.0% in the HER2-low group.
  • Investigator-assessed ORR was 68.2% in the HER2-high group and 60.0% in the HER2-low group.
  • Median PFS was 6.2 months in the HER2-high group and 6.7 months in the HER2-low group.
  • Median OS was 13.3 months in the HER2-high group and not reached in the HER2-low group.
  • Grade β‰₯3 adverse events occurred in 61% of patients.
  • Pneumonitis/interstitial lung disease occurred in 24% at grade 1-2 and 3% at grade 3.
Limitations: Single-arm study with no control group; Small sample size; Short/unclear follow-up for survival outcomes; Subgroup analyses were exploratory; Safety and efficacy were assessed in a selected HER2-expressing recurrent population.

This study evaluated an anticancer agent in patients with HER2-expressing uterine carcinosarcoma.
