INTRODUCTION: Small bowel adenocarcinomas (SBAs) are rare and frequently treated like large intestinal adenocarcinomas. However, SBAs have a very different microenvironment and could respond differently to the same therapies. Our previous data suggested that SBAs might benefit from targeting the PD-1/PD-L1 axis based on PD-L1 staining in almost 50% of SBA tissue samples tested. Thus, we designed a phase 2 study to explore safety and efficacy of avelumab in SBA.
PATIENTS AND METHODS: Patients with advanced or metastatic disease were enrolled; ampullary tumors were considered part of the duodenum and allowed. Prior PD-1/PD-L1 inhibition was not allowed. Avelumab (10 mg/kg) was given every 2 weeks, and imaging was performed every 8 weeks. Primary endpoint was response rate.
RESULTS: Eight patients (n = 5, small intestine; n = 3, ampullary) were enrolled, with a majority (88%) being male and a median age of 61 years. Of 7 efficacy-evaluable patients, 2 (29%) experienced partial responses; stable disease occurred in 3 additional patients (71%). Median progression-free survival was 3.35 months. Most frequent, related toxicities were anemia, fatigue, and infusion-related reaction (25% each), mostly grade ≤2; grade 3 hypokalemia and hyponatremia occurred in one patient, and another reported grade 4 diabetic ketoacidosis.
CONCLUSIONS: Despite the observed benefit, accrual was slower than expected and the study was closed early due to feasibility. A general clinic observation was that patients were receiving immunotherapy off-label as the availability of these agents increased. Off-label availability and disease rarity were likely drivers of insufficient accrual.
