About this study

Official title: Anti PD-L1 (Atezolizumab) as an Immune Primer and Concurrently With Extended Field Chemoradiotherapy for Node Positive Locally Advanced Cervical Cancer

This phase I trial studies how well atezolizumab before and/or with standard of care chemoradiotherapy works in immune system activation in patients with stage IB2, II, IIIB, or IVA cervical cancer that has spread to the lymph nodes. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as atezolizumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Giving atezolizumab before and/or with chemoradiotherapy may lower the chance of tumors growing or spreading.

Read the detailed description

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:

  1. To determine whether differences in sequencing of atezolizumab and chemoradiation result in differential immune activation, as determined by clonal expansion of T cell receptor beta (TCRB) repertoires in peripheral blood on day 21.

SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:

  1. To investigate the feasibility of administration of the anti PD-L1 antibody (atezolizumab) as an immune primer and concurrent with chemoradiation (CRT) therapy in patients with locally advanced cervical cancer.

II. To determine the nature and degree of toxicity of the anti PD-L1 antibody (atezolizumab) administered as an immune primer and concurrent with chemoradiation (CRT) therapy in patients with locally advanced cervical cancer.

III. To examine the changes in T cell receptor (TCR) clonality, diversity, and frequency in peripheral blood and tissue and correlate this with clinical outcomes, such as the exploratory response assessment on the post-treatment positron emission tomography (PET)-computed tomography (CT) scan and 2-year disease-free survival (DFS).

IV. To assess the predictive value of baseline and on-treatment PD-L1 expression in the tissue in each treatment arm for clinical outcomes using post-treatment PET-CT scan and 2-year DFS as the outcome measures.

EXPLORATORY OBJECTIVES:

  1. To explore baseline and on-treatment blood and tissue biomarkers that could predict response to the combination therapy, as correlated to the exploratory clinical endpoint of the week 12 (day 140) PET-CT scan and 2-year DFS.

II. To explore the response assessment on the exploratory and optional post-treatment week 12 (day 140) PET-CT scan and the clinical 2-year disease free survival (DFS).

OUTLINE: Patients are randomized to 1 of 2 arms.

ARM A: Patients receive atezolizumab intravenously (IV) over 30-60 minutes on days -21, 0, and 21 in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Patients also receive standard of care cisplatin chemotherapy IV over 90 minutes on days 0, 7, 14, 21, 28, and 35. Beginning on day 0, patients also receive standard of care radiation therapy once daily (Monday-Friday) for a total of 25 fractions with image guided brachytherapy beginning in week 4, 5, or at the end of radiation therapy.

ARM B: Patients receive atezolizumab IV over 30-60 minutes on days 0, 21, and 42 in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Patients also receive standard of care cisplatin chemotherapy, radiation therapy, and image guided brachytherapy as in Arm A.

After completion of study treatment, patients are followed up at 1 and 3 months, and then every 3 months for 2 years.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Immune Response

    The immune response is measured by total T cell receptor beta (TCRB) clonal expansion in peripheral blood at day 21 from baseline using Adaptive Biotechnologies' immunoSEQ platform from Day -21 to Day 21 for group 1 (i.e., Arm A), and from Day 0 to Day 21 for group 2 (i.e., Arm B). The higher number of total TCR clonal expansion indicates better immune response.

    Measured: Arm A: 42 days from the first dose of Atezolizumab Arm B: 21 days from the first dose of Atezolizumab

Secondary outcomes (7)
  1. Percentage of Participants With Dose Limiting Toxicities

    A DLT is defined as any drug related adverse effects that occur during treatment period until 30 days after the completion of CRT and meet the criteria as evaluated by NCI CTCAE v.5 unless clearly unrelated to study therapy (e.g., disease progression).

    Measured: Arm A: 111 days, i.e., from start of the priming dose of atezolizumab until 30 days after the completion of CRT Arm B: 90 days, i.e., from start of CRT until 30 days after the completion of CRT(Chemoradiation therapy).

  2. Post-treatment 3-month PET/CT Metabolic Response

    Percentage of participants with complete post-treatment 3-month PET/CT metabolic response. The post-treatment 3-month PET/CT metabolic response is evaluated based on the ratio of post-treatment week-12 PET-CT SUVmax to base-line PET-CT scan SUV max, and the response will be classified as complete metabolic response for the ratio < 0.34, or classified as partial metabolic response for 0.34 <= the ratio < 0.76, or classified as stable metabolic response for 0.76 <= the ratio < 1.25, or classified as progressive metabolic disease for the ratio >= 1.25.

    Measured: 3 months after completion of study treatment

  3. Adverse Events (Grade 3 or Higher) During Treatment Period as Assessed by Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) Version (v)5

    Number of participants with a maximum grade of 3 or higher during treatment period. Adverse events are graded and categorized using CTCAE v5.0.

    Measured: Arm A: 111 days, i.e., from start of the priming dose of atezolizumab until 30 days after the completion of CRT Arm B 90 days, i.e., from start of CRT until 30 days after the completion of CRT

  4. T Cell Receptor (TCR) Simpson Clonality

    TCR Simpson clonality in peripheral blood is measured at day 21 using Adaptive Biotechnologies' immunoSEQ platform. It quantitates the extent of mono- or oligoclonal dominance within a TCR repertoire by measuring the shape of the clone frequency distribution ranging from 0 to 1, where values approaching 1 indicate a nearly monoclonal population.

    Measured: Arm A: 42 days from the first dose of Atezolizumab Arm B: 21 days from the first dose of Atezolizumab

  5. Pre-treatment PD-L1 Expression

    Pre-treatment PD-L1 SP142 positive immune cells in tumor area in formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE) biopsy primary tumor tissues

    Measured: Within 3 days after randomization but before start of study treatment

  6. Disease-free Survival (DFS) at 2 Years

    Percentage of participants who survive disease-free at 2 years, where DFS is defined as the duration of time from study entry to date of first documented recurrence or progression of disease or death, whichever occurs first. Progression is assessed by RECIST 1.1.Progression is defined using Response Evaluation Criteria In Solid Tumors Criteria (RECIST v1.1), as a 20% increase in the sum of the longest diameter of target lesions, or a measurable increase in a non-target lesion, or the appearance of new lesions.

    Measured: Up to 2 years

  7. T Cell Receptor (TCR) Diversity

    TCR diversity in peripheral blood is measured at day 21 by counting the number of unique rearrangements to a common number of T cells using Adaptive Biotechnologies' immunoSEQ platform. A higher TCR diversity indicates a richer TCR repertoire.

    Measured: Arm A: 42 days from the first dose of Atezolizumab Arm B: 21 days from the first dose of Atezolizumab
