    Abstract Background: Lenvatinib is an approved first-line treatment for unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma (uHCC). We evaluated the safety and efficacy of lenvatinib
    Methods: We retrospectively evaluated patients from REFLECT who deteriorated to CP-B
    Results: Patients with CP-B
    Conclusion: Results suggest that patients with uHCC whose liver function deteriorates to CP-B after initiation of therapy may continue to receive lenvatinib.

    Abstract Background: Medullary carcinoma (MC) is a recognized histologic subtype of colorectal cancer characterized by poor glandular differentiation and intraepithelial lymphocytic infiltrate. However, MC originating from the small intestine is exceedingly rare, with only nine cases described in the literature. Based on previous cases, surgical resection is currently the mainstay of treatment for those with localized disease. We report the first case of a patient who presented with unresectable microsatellite instability-high (MSI-H) MC of the duodenum and was instead treated with pembrolizumab.
    Case description: A 50-year-old man with history of adenocarcinoma of the proximal descending colon status post hemicolectomy and adjuvant treatment with chemotherapy and family history of Lynch syndrome presented with abdominal pain for two weeks. Computed tomography (CT) abdomen/pelvis revealed a 10.7 cm by 4.3 cm mass in the mid-portion of the duodenum abutting against the pancreatic head. Esophagogastroduodenoscopy (EGD) demonstrated circumferential, partially obstructing, intrinsic stenosis of the duodenum with ampullary involvement and likely invasion into the pancreatic head and common bile duct. Endoscopic biopsy of the primary tumor revealed poorly differentiated MC. Immunohistochemical staining showed loss of MLH1 and PMS2 expression. Staging with CT chest showed no evidence of disease. Positron emission tomography (PET) scan redemonstrated circumferential duodenal wall thickening and hypermetabolic activity with standardized uptake value (SUV) max of 26.4, as well as PET-avid epigastric, retroperitoneal, and periaortic lymphadenopathy suggestive of metastasis. He was started on pembrolizumab and found to have stable disease on repeat imaging along with significant improvement in symptoms and performance status.
    Conclusions: Due to the rarity of the tumor, there is no standardized approach to treatment. All patients in previously published cases underwent surgical resection. However, our patient was deemed a poor surgical candidate. Given his previous history of colon cancer and treatment with platinum-based therapy, he qualified for pembrolizumab as first line therapy for his MSI-H tumor. To our knowledge, this is the first report of MC of the duodenum as well as the first MC to be treated with pembrolizumab in the first line setting. In order to corroborate the use of immune checkpoint inhibitors as a treatment option for MC of the colon or small intestine, the aggregation of existing and future case data in this unique patient group is certainly warranted.

    Abstract Introduction: This study determined the safety and recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D) of the multikinase inhibitor cabozantinib in combination with trifluridine/tipiracil (FTD/TPI) in refractory metastatic colorectal carcinoma (mCRC).
    Patients and methods: Single institution investigator-initiated phase 1 study using 3+3 design. Eligible mCRC patients had received prior standard regimens. Cabozantinib was given orally (p.o.) at 20 mg (dose level [DL] 0) or 40 mg (DL 1) daily on days 1-28, and FTD/TPI p.o. at 35 mg/m
    Results: Fifteen patients were enrolled. Median age 56 years (31-80), male (12/15), ECOG 0/1 = 9/6. Three patients were treated at DL 0 and another nine were treated at DL 1, none exhibiting a DLT. Most common any grade (G) treatment related adverse events (TRAE) were diarrhea (50%), nausea (42%), neutropenia (42%), fatigue (33%), and rash (25%). G3-4 TRAE were neutropenia (25%) and thrombocytopenia, hypokalemia, and weight loss (each 8%). No serious TRAE or G5 were reported. The RP2D was determined to be DL 1. Median PFS was 3.8 months (95% CI 1.9-6.8) and disease control rate was 86.7%.
    Conclusion: The combination of cabozantinib and FTD/TPI is feasible and tolerable at standard doses with the use of growth factors and showed encouraging clinical activity in refractory mCRC.

    Abstract Landmark molecular profiling efforts have identified multiple targetable alterations in cholangiocarcinoma. Among the molecular-driven subsets of cholangiocarcinoma, targeting the fibroblast growth factor receptor (FGFR) has shown promise and represents the first targeted therapy to be approved in treatment-refractory, advanced cholangiocarcinoma. In this review, we provide an up-to-date overview of the clinical development of FGFR inhibitors in advanced cholangiocarcinoma. We review the FGFR pathway and discuss emerging issues including resistance to FGFR inhibitors. We end with a discussion on future considerations to optimize the potential of this class of therapeutics in advanced cholangiocarcinoma.

    Abstract Opinion statement: Data supporting the use of immunotherapy in the treatment of gastroesophageal cancer continues to evolve. The promising results from adjuvant immunotherapy and trials combining immunotherapy plus chemotherapy in the 1L setting have led to broad US FDA approvals. Among the PD-L1 negative subgroups, the magnitude of benefit is diminished; effective therapy for this population remains an unmet need. A detailed biologic understanding of the PD-L1 negative (and low) population represents a barrier to developing effective combination therapies, although combination angiogenesis inhibitors and immunotherapy look encouraging. Early phase clinical trials, particularly with pembrolizumab plus lenvatinib (EPOC 1706), demonstrated a clear signal independent of PD-L1, and a confirmatory phase III trial of pembrolizumab plus lenvatinib is planned. Conceptually, it is important to think of immune checkpoint inhibitor therapy as targeted therapy, most active in clearly defined biomarker-selected populations. Pre-planned analyses have reliably shown a clear trend toward a greater magnitude of benefit in patients with higher PD-L1 expression, particularly CPS ≥ 5 and ≥ 10. Whether there is a linear relationship at higher cutoffs is not well known, though it likely represents smaller and smaller populations. Although beyond the scope of this clinically oriented review, recognition of the spatial and temporal heterogeneity in PD-L1 expression is important and repeat testing from progression samples across lines of therapy should be considered. Questions about additional predictive biomarkers, particularly plasma-derived, remain. Responses by tumor histology and location also differ, and special attention to these factors as well as MSI-H, HER2, and EBV subgroups in future trials is warranted. Questions regarding the incorporation of immunotherapy after progression on 1L immunotherapy plus chemotherapy combinations will arise as these combinations are used more frequently, and this represents a key area of future investigation. Overall, the role of immunotherapy continues to expand in GEA, and we welcome any additional tools for this difficult-to-treat group of cancers.
