Patients were randomly assigned (1:1) to receive adjuvant oxaliplatin via HAI (HAI group, n = 50) or IV infusion (IV group, n = 49), both combined with IV LV5FU2 for at least 3 months. The primary end point was hepatic recurrence-free survival (h-RFS).

Five-year overall survival (OS) remains ∼30-40%, and most patients will develop relapsed or refractory (R/R) disease. Duvelisib is an oral dual inhibitor of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K)-δ and PI3K-γ isoforms. Here, we report on the final analysis of the phase 2 PRIMO trial (NCT03372057; Secura Bio, Inc.) evaluating duvelisib monotherapy in R/R PTCL.METHODSPRIMO was conducted in 2 phases (Dose Optimization and Dose Expansion [PRIMO-EP]) at 45 centers globally. Eligible patients were ≥18 years of age, had histologically confirmed diagnosis of PTCL, and had received ≥2 cycles of 1 standard regimen for PTCL. Based on Dose Optimization results, the selected regimen for PRIMO-EP was 75 mg BID for 2 cycles (to maximize disease control) followed by 25 mg BID (to reduce late toxicities), continued until progressive disease or unacceptable toxicity.RESULTSPRIMO-EP (N=123) outcomes included Independent Review Committee-assessed objective response rate (ORR): 48.0%, complete response rate (CRR): 33.3%, median progression-free survival (mPFS): 3.4 months, mOS: 12.4 months, median duration of response (mDOR): 7.9 months. In the AITL subgroup, outcomes were ORR: 62.2%, CRR: 51.4%, mPFS: 8.3 months, mOS: 18.1 months, mDOR: 11.3 months. Treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs) (any grade) occurred in 120 patients (97.6%), TEAEs grade ≥3 occurred in 91 patients (74.0%). TEAEs resulting in dose hold or dose reduction occurred in 44.7% and 9.8% of patients.CONCLUSIONSThe PRIMO study demonstrates significant activity and tolerability of duvelisib in patients with R/R PTCL, most notably in the AITL subgroup. This provides strong rationale for further development in PTCL, and more specifically in the subgroup of nodal T-follicular helper cell lymphoma.","PeriodicalId":15384,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Clinical Oncology","volume":"28 1","pages":"101200JCO2503120"},"PeriodicalIF":45.3,"publicationDate":"2026-04-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147733321","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Effective treatments are limited for chemorefractory metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC).METHODSOrigAMI-1 (ClinicalTrials.gov identifier: NCT05379595) is a phase Ib/II study evaluating amivantamab monotherapy in chemorefractory (2-3 prior lines) mCRC. Participants had centrally confirmed RAS/BRAF/EGFR ectodomain wild-type status, without ERBB2/HER2 amplification. Participants with left-sided mCRC without (cohort A) or with (cohort B) prior anti-EGFR antibody treatment, or right-sided mCRC (cohort C) regardless of prior anti-EGFR treatment, received intravenous amivantamab 1,050 mg (1,400 mg for ≥80 kg) once every 2 weeks. The primary end point was objective response rate (ORR) per RECIST v1.1.RESULTSBy October 31, 2024, 94 participants received amivantamab monotherapy (median follow-up, 11.9 months). The median age was 60 years, and 65% of participants were male, with a median of 2 prior lines (94%, prior bevacizumab). In left-sided cohorts, the ORR was 29% (5 of 17) in cohort A and 19% (10 of 54) in cohort B; the median duration of response (DoR) was 9.0 months and 6.1 months, and the median progression-free survival (PFS) was 5.7 months and 4.6 months, respectively. In the right-sided cohort, the ORR was 22% (10 of 23; 43% had prior anti-EGFR), the median DoR was 9.8 months, and the median PFS was 3.7 months. Most frequent treatment-related grade ≥3 adverse events (AEs) were rash (7%), dermatitis acneiform (4%), and hypoalbuminemia (4%). One participant discontinued amivantamab because of a treatment-related AE.CONCLUSIONAmivantamab monotherapy demonstrated promising, durable antitumor activity in chemorefractory mCRC, regardless of prior anti-EGFR therapy and the primary tumor location. The amivantamab safety profile in mCRC is consistent with experience in NSCLC. Amivantamab plus chemotherapy is currently being explored in two phase III studies in first-line and second-line mCRCs.","PeriodicalId":15384,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Clinical Oncology","volume":"9 1","pages":"JCO2502187"},"PeriodicalIF":45.3,"publicationDate":"2026-04-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147731609","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
