Abstract CT108: HELOISE: phase IIIB randomized multicenter study comparing two trastuzumab (H) dose regimens combined with chemotherapy (CT) as first-line (1L) therapy in patients (pts) with HER2-positive metastatic gastric/gastroesophageal junction adenocarcinoma (mGC/GEJC)

Background: CT (fluorouracil/platinum) + H is standard of care (SoC) for 1L HER2-positive mGC/GEJC based on the ToGA Phase 3 study. ToGA post hoc analyses showed that lowest H trough concentration (Cycle 1 C trough ) quartile pts had shorter overall survival (OS) than pts in higher quartiles, and that they were enriched for poorer prognostic factors at baseline, e.g. ECOG 2, no prior gastrectomy, ?2 metastatic sites. HELOISE (NCT01450696) investigated whether higher dose H (HD H) + CT, when compared to SoC H + CT, improves OS in 1L HER2-positive mGC/GEJC. Methods: Pts with the high risk features above were randomized 1:1 to loading dose H 8 mg/kg then SoC H maintenance 6 mg/kg every 3 weeks (q3w) or loading dose H 8 mg/kg then HD H maintenance 10 mg/kg q3w until progression; each arm combined with cisplatin 80 mg/m 2 + capecitabine 800 mg/m 2 in cycles 1-6. The primary objective was HD H OS superiority (target HR 0.75, all randomized pts); other objectives included pharmacokinetics (PK) and safety. Final results are from an interim analysis for futility at 125 OS events. Results: 248 pts had been randomized at clinical cutoff, Feb 13, 2015. Baseline characteristics/demographics were balanced overall, with median ages 58.5 and 62.6 years in the SoC H and HD H arms, respectively; 23% of pts per arm were female. Safety was comparable between arms, with no difference in congestive heart failure (0% each). The OS futility boundary was crossed (HR 1.24 > 0.95); safety, efficacy, and PK data are shown in the table. A marked increase in mean C trough was observed following the first HD H cycle vs SoC H.
Conclusions: Although HD H maintenance dosing is associated with higher H concentrations in HELOISE, we observed no increased efficacy (OS, PFS) and no new safety signals. HELOISE confirms SoC H (8 mg/kg loading dose followed by H 6 mg/kg q3w maintenance doses) as SoC with CT for 1L treatment of HER2-positive mGC/GEJC. Citation Format: Manish A.
