Abstract

Background

Triple negative breast cancer (TNBC) is an aggressive malignancy with poor prognosis, in part because of the current lack of any approved molecularly targeted therapy. We evaluated various combinations of three different drugs: nintedanib, an antiangiogenic TKI targeting VEGF receptors, paclitaxel (PTX), or a PD-L1 antibody, using models of orthotopic primary or advanced metastatic TNBC involving a metastatic variant of the MDA-MB-231 human cell line (called LM2–4) in SCID mice and two mouse lines (EMT-6 and a drug-resistant variant, EMT-6/CDDP) in immunocompetent mice. These drugs were selected based on the following: PTX is approved for TNBC; nintedanib combined with docetaxel has shown phase III clinical trial success, albeit in NSCLC; VEGF can act as local immunosuppressive factor; and PD-L1 antibody plus taxane therapy was recently reported to have encouraging phase III trial benefit in TNBC.

Methods

Statistical analyses were performed with ANOVA followed by Tukey’s Multiple Comparison Test or with Kruskal-Wallis test followed by Dunn’s Multiple Comparison Test. Survival curves were analyzed using a Log-rank (Mantel Cox) test. Differences were considered statistically significant when p values were < 0.05.

Results

Toxicity analyses showed that nintedanib is well tolerated when administered 5-days ON 2-days OFF; PTX toxicity differed in mice, varied with cell lines used and may have influenced median survival in the metastatic EMT6/CDDP model; while toxicity of PD-L1 therapy depended on the cell lines and treatment settings tested. In the LM2–4 system, combining nintedanib with PTX enhanced overall antitumor efficacy in both primary and metastatic treatment settings. In immunocompetent mice, combining nintedanib or PTX with the PD-L1 antibody improved overall antitumor efficacy. Using the advanced metastatic EMT-6/CDDP model, optimal efficacy results were obtained using the triple combination.

Conclusions

These results suggest circumstances where nintedanib plus PTX may be potentially effective in treating TNBC, and nintedanib with PTX may improve PD-L1 therapy of metastatic TNBC.

Keynote webinar | Spotlight on antibody–drug conjugates in cancer

Antibody–drug conjugates (ADCs) are novel agents that have shown promise across multiple tumor types. Explore the current landscape of ADCs in breast and lung cancer with our experts, and gain insights into the mechanism of action, key clinical trials data, existing challenges, and future directions.
