Abstract Text MEK inhibitors (MEKi) lack monotherapy efficacy in most RAS-mutant cancers. BCL-xL is an anti-apoptotic protein identified by a synthetic lethal shRNA screen as a key suppressor of apoptotic response to MEKi.We conducted a dose escalation study (NCT02079740) of the BCL-xL inhibitor navitoclax and MEKi trametinib in patients with RAS-mutant tumors with expansion cohorts for: pancreatic, gynecologic (GYN), non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), and other cancers harboring KRAS/NRAS mutations. Paired pretreatment and day 15 tumor biopsies and serial cell-free (cf)DNA were analyzed.A total of 91 patients initiated treatment, with 38 in dose escalation. Fifty-eight percent had ≥3 prior therapies. A total of 15 patients (17%) had colorectal cancer, 19 (11%) pancreatic, 15 (17%) NSCLC, and 32 (35%) GYN cancers. The recommended phase II dose (RP2D) was established as trametinib 2 mg daily days 1 to 14 and navitoclax 250 mg daily days 1 to 28 of each cycle. Most common adverse events included diarrhea, thrombocytopenia, increased AST/ALT, and acneiform rash. At RP2D, 8 of 49 (16%) evaluable patients achieved partial response (PR). Disease-specific differences in efficacy were noted. In patients with GYN at the RP2D, 7 of 21 (33%) achieved a PR and median duration of response 8.2 months. No PRs occurred in patients with colorectal cancer, NSCLC, or pancreatic cancer. MAPK pathway inhibition was observed in on-treatment tumor biopsies. Reductions in KRAS/NRAS mutation levels in cfDNA correlated with clinical benefit.Navitoclax in combination with trametinib was tolerable. Durable clinical responses were observed in patients with RAS-mutant GYN cancers, warranting further evaluation in this population.

Filtering

  • Case insensitive filtering will display rows if any text in any cell matches the filter term
  • Use simple literal full or partial string matches
  • Separate multiple filter terms with a space. Any order may be used (i. e. a b c and c b a are equivalent )
  • Filtering will only apply to rows that are already loaded on the page. Filtering has no impact on query parameters.
  • Use quotes to match on a longer phrase with spaces (i.e. "mtor c1483f")

Sorting

  • Generally, the default sort order for tables is set to be first column ascending; however, specific tables may set a different default sort order.
  • Click on any column header arrows to sort by that column
  • Hold down the Shift key and click multiple columns to sort by more than one column. Be sure to set ascending or descending order for a given column before moving on to the next column.
