Fruquintinib Combined With PD-1 Inhibitors for the Treatment of the Patients With Microsatellite Stability Metastatic Colorectal Cancer: Real-World Data

Article

Author: Gu, Y ; Tu, S ; He, L ; Zhou, C ; Li, Q ; Cheng, X ; Zhang, B

AIMS:

Programmed death-1 (PD-1) or programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1) inhibitors have shown limited effectiveness in patients with microsatellite stable (MSS) metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC). Combining anti-angiogenesis inhibitors with PD-1 inhibitors has the potential to reverse the immunosuppressive tumour microenvironment, synergistically enhancing the anti-tumour immune response in MSS mCRC. The goal is to present real-world data that prove the clinical efficacy and safety of fruquintinib combined with PD-1 inhibitors in MSS mCRC.

MATERIALS AND METHODS:

We conducted a real-world retrospective study in patients with MSS mCRC who received treatment with fruquintinib combined with PD-1 inhibitors between May 2019 and March 2023 in our centre.

RESULTS:

Seventy seven patients with MSS mCRC received fruquintinib combined with PD-1 inhibitors. In total, 5.2% of patients (4/77) achieved a partial response (PR), while 50.6% (39/77) had a stable disease (SD). Notably, three lesions achieving PR were all lung metastases and the overall disease control rate (DCR) reached 55.8% (43/77). Median progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) reached 5.1 months (95% CI: 3.6-6.7) and 14.6 months (95% CI: 9.6-15.6), respectively. Multivariate Cox analysis showed that prior treatment without vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) inhibitors was significantly associated with PFS and OS (p < 0.05). Further analysis indicated that total- or polymorphonuclear myeloid-derived suppressor cells (PMN-MDSCs) significantly decreased after treatment (P = 0.039), especially in the PR/SD group (P = 0.003). Most adverse events included abdominal pain, rash, oedema, diarrhoea, and immunotherapy-associated hypothyroidism, yet symptoms were controllable.

CONCLUSION:

Our results provided additional evidence that patients with MSS mCRC could benefit from the combination of fruquintinib and PD-1 inhibitors, especially those with lung metastases or without prior treatment with VEGF inhibitors. The detection of MDSCs may be an immune indicator for predicting of the combined therapy.

Late-line options for patients with metastatic colorectal cancer: a review and evidence-based algorithm

Review

Author: Cremolini, Chiara ; Ciracì, Paolo ; Studiale, Vittorio ; Antoniotti, Carlotta ; Taravella, Ada

Over the past few years, several novel systemic treatments have emerged for patients with treatment-refractory metastatic colorectal cancer, thus making selection of the most effective later-line therapy a challenge for medical oncologists. Over the past decade, regorafenib and trifluridine-tipiracil were the only available drugs and often provided limited clinical benefit compared to best supportive care. Results from subsequent practice-changing trials opened several novel therapeutic avenues, both for unselected patients (such as trifluridine-tipiracil plus bevacizumab or fruquintinib) and for subgroups defined by the presence of actionable alterations in their tumours (such as HER2-targeted therapies or KRAS^G12C inhibitors) or with no acquired mechanisms of resistance to the previously received targeted agents in circulating tumour DNA (such as retreatment with anti-EGFR antibodies). In this Review, we provide a comprehensive overview of advances in the field over the past few years and offer a practical perspective on translation of the most relevant results into the daily management of patients with metastatic colorectal cancer using an evidence-based algorithm. Finally, we discuss some of the most appealing ongoing areas of research and highlight approaches with the potential to further expand the therapeutic armamentarium.

Budget impact analysis of introducing fruquintinib for metastatic colorectal cancer previously treated with fluoropyrimidine-, oxaliplatin-, and irinotecan-based chemotherapy and biologics in the United States from the payer perspective

Article

Author: Asfaw, Alemseged Ayele ; Hernandez, Luis ; Li, Shujun ; Zou, Denise ; Khanduri, Pratishtha ; Paly, Victoria Federico

AIMS:

Fruquintinib is a selective small molecule tyrosine kinase inhibitor of vascular endothelial growth factor receptor (VEGFR)-1, -2, and -3 recently approved in the United States (US) for the treatment of adult patients with metastatic colorectal cancer (CRC) who have previously been treated with fluoropyrimidine-, oxaliplatin-, and irinotecan-based chemotherapy, an anti-VEGF biological therapy, and if RAS wild-type and medically appropriate, anti-epidermal growth factor receptor therapy. This study aimed to estimate the 5-year budget impact of fruquintinib from a US payer perspective (commercial and Medicare).

MATERIALS AND METHODS:

A budget impact model was developed to compare two scenarios: a reference scenario in which patients received regorafenib, trifluridine/tipiracil, or trifluridine/tipiracil with bevacizumab and an alternative scenario in which patients received reference scenario treatments or fruquintinib. Market shares were evenly divided across available options. A 5-year time horizon and a hypothetical health plan of 1 million members was assumed. The model included epidemiological inputs to estimate the eligible population; clinical inputs for treatment duration, progression-free survival, overall survival, and adverse event (AE) frequency; and cost inputs for treatment, AEs, disease management, subsequent therapy, and terminal care costs. Budget impact was reported as total, per member per year (PMPY), and per member per month (PMPM).

RESULTS:

The model estimated an eligible population of 194 patients (39 per year) over 5 years. In the base case, the estimated 5-year budget impact of fruquintinib was $4,077,073 ($0.82 PMPY and 0.07 PMPM) for a commercial health plan. During the first year, the estimated budget impact was $627,570 ($0.63 PMPY and 0.05 PMPM). Results were robust across sensitivity analyses. PMPM costs from the Medicare perspective were greater than the base-case (commercial) ($0.17 vs. $0.07) due to higher incidence of CRC in that population.

CONCLUSIONS:

Fruquintinib is associated with a low budget impact for payers based on proposed thresholds in the US.

HUTCHMED to Receive Milestone Payment from Takeda following First European Reimbursement for FRUZAQLA® (fruquintinib)

— US$10 million milestone payment to HUTCHMED follows first national reimbursement in Europe — — Follows June 2024 European approval of FRUZAQLA® (fruquintinib), the first novel oral targeted therapy in the EU for metastatic colorectal cancer regardless of biomarker status in over a decade — HONG KONG and SHANGHAI and FLORHAM PARK, N.J., Dec. 12, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- HUTCHMED (China) Limited (“HUTCHMED”) (Nasdaq/AIM:HCM; HKEX:13) today announces that it will receive a US$10 million milestone payment by its partner Takeda (TSE:4502/NYSE:TAK). Takeda received a national reimbursement recommendation for FRUZAQLA® (fruquintinib) for patients with previously treated metastatic colorectal cancer (“CRC”) in Spain in December 2024, the first national reimbursement recommendation in Europe. CRC is the second most common cause of cancer-related deaths in Europe. FRUZAQLA® was approved by the European Commission (“EC”) of the European Union (“EU”) in June 2024. Takeda has the exclusive worldwide license to further develop, commercialize and manufacture fruquintinib outside of mainland China, Hong Kong and Macau. “We are delighted for both our partner, Takeda, and patients in Spain who will now be able to receive reimbursement for this innovative treatment. This is an important step forward in improving patient access across Europe more broadly,” said Dr Weiguo Su, Chief Executive Officer and Chief Scientific Officer of HUTCHMED. “It also underscores our ongoing collaboration with Takeda and reinforces our shared commitment to addressing the needs of patients with metastatic colorectal cancer.” The approvals by the EC were primarily based on results from the Phase III multiregional FRESCO-2 trial. Data from FRESCO-2 were published in The Lancet in June 2023. FRUZAQLA® was approved in the US in November 2023, in the EU in June 2024, in Switzerland in August 2024, in Canada, Japan and the United Kingdom in September 2024 and in Argentina, Australia and Singapore in October 2024. Regulatory applications are progressing in many other jurisdictions. About CRC CRC is a cancer that starts in either the colon or rectum. According to the International Agency for Research on Cancer/World Health Organization, CRC is the third most prevalent cancer worldwide, associated with more than 1.9 million new cases and 900,000 deaths in 2022. In Europe, CRC was the second most common cancer in 2022, with approximately 538,000 new cases and 248,000 deaths.1,2 In the US, it is estimated that 153,000 patients will be diagnosed with CRC and 53,000 deaths from the disease will occur in 2024.3 In Japan, CRC was the most common cancer, with an estimated 146,000 new cases and 60,000 deaths, in 2022.2 Although early-stage CRC can be surgically resected, metastatic CRC remains an area of high unmet need with poor outcomes and limited treatment options. Some patients with metastatic CRC may benefit from personalized therapeutic strategies based on molecular characteristics; however, most patients have tumors that do not harbor actionable mutations.4,5,6,7,8 About Fruquintinib Fruquintinib is a selective oral inhibitor of all three VEGF receptors (VEGFR-1, -2 and -3). VEGFR inhibitors play a pivotal role in inhibiting tumor angiogenesis. Fruquintinib was designed to have enhanced selectivity that limits off-target kinase activity, allowing for drug exposure that achieves sustained target inhibition and flexibility for potential use as part of a combination therapy. About Fruquintinib Approvals Global regulatory submissions are based on data from two large, randomized, controlled Phase III trials, the global, multi-regional FRESCO-2 trial and the FRESCO trial conducted in China, showing consistent benefit among a total of 734 patients treated with fruquintinib. Safety profiles were consistent across trials. Results from the FRESCO-2 trial were published in The Lancet in June 2023,9 while results from the FRESCO trial were published in The Journal of the American Medical Association, JAMA.10 In mainland China, Hong Kong and Macau, fruquintinib is co-marketed by HUTCHMED and Eli Lilly and Company under the brand name ELUNATE®. It was included in the China National Reimbursement Drug List (NRDL) in January 2020. Since its launch in China, over 100,000 patients with colorectal cancer have been treated with fruquintinib.

FRUZAQLA should not be used during pregnancy unless the clinical condition of the woman requires treatment with FRUZAQLA. If FRUZAQLA is used during pregnancy or if the patient becomes pregnant while on treatment, the patient must be informed of the potential hazard to the fetus; Breast-feeding: The safe use of FRUZAQLA during breast-feeding has not been established. It is not known whether FRUZAQLA or its metabolites are excreted in human milk. There are no animal data on the excretion of FRUZAQLA in animal milk. A risk to the breastfeeding newborns/infants cannot be excluded. Breastfeeding should be discontinued during treatment and for 2 weeks after the last dose; Fertility: There are no data on the effects of FRUZAQLA on human fertility. Results from animal studies indicate that FRUZAQLA may impair male and female fertility. SPECIAL WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS FOR USE Hypertension: Hypertension, including hypertensive crisis, has been reported in patients treated with FRUZAQLA. Pre-existing hypertension should be monitored and adequately controlled in accordance with standard medical practices before starting FRUZAQLA treatment. Hypertension should be medically managed with antihypertensive medicinal products and adjustment of the FRUZAQLA dose, if necessary. FRUZAQLA should be permanently discontinued for hypertension that cannot be controlled with antihypertensive therapy or in patients with hypertensive crisis. Hemorrhagic events: Hemorrhagic events have been reported in patients treated with FRUZAQLA, including gastrointestinal (GI) tract events. Serious and sometimes fatal bleeding events have been reported in patients after treatment with FRUZAQLA. Hematologic and coagulation profiles should be monitored in accordance with standard medical practices in patients at risk for bleeding, including those treated with anticoagulants or other concomitant medicinal products that increase the risk of bleeding. In the event of severe bleeding requiring immediate medical intervention, FRUZAQLA should be permanently discontinued. Gastrointestinal perforation: GI perforation events, including fatal events, have been reported in patients treated with FRUZAQLA. Symptoms of GI perforation should be periodically monitored during treatment with FRUZAQLA. FRUZAQLA should be permanently discontinued in patients developing GI perforation. Proteinuria: Proteinuria events have occurred in patients treated with FRUZAQLA. Proteinuria should be monitored before initiation and during treatment with FRUZAQLA in accordance with standard medical practices. If urine dipstick proteinuria ≥ 2 g / 24 hours is detected, dose interruptions, adjustments, or discontinuation may be necessary. FRUZAQLA should be permanently discontinued in patients developing nephrotic syndrome. Palmar-plantar erythrodysesthesia syndrome (PPES): PPES is the most frequently reported dermatological adverse reaction. If Grade ≥2 skin reactions are detected, dose interruptions, adjustments, or discontinuation may be necessary. Posterior reversible encephalopathy syndrome (PRES): PRES has been reported in 1 patient (0.1%) treated with FRUZAQLA in clinical studies. PRES is a rare neurologic disorder that can present with headache, seizure, lethargy, confusion, altered mental function, blindness, and other visual or neurological disturbances, with or without associated hypertension. A diagnosis of PRES requires confirmation by brain imaging, preferably magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). In patients developing PRES, discontinuation of FRUZAQLA, along with control of hypertension and supportive medical management of other symptoms, are recommended.Impaired wound healing: Impaired wound healing has been reported in 1 patient (0.1%) treated with FRUZAQLA in clinical studies. Patients are recommended to withhold FRUZAQLA for at least 2 weeks prior to surgery. FRUZAQLA should not be resumed for at least 2 weeks after surgery, as clinically indicated when there is evidence of adequate wound healing. Arterial and venous thromboembolic events: It is recommended to avoid starting treatment with FRUZAQLA in patients with a history of thromboembolic events (including deep vein thrombosis and pulmonary embolism) within the past 6 months or if they have a history of stroke and/or transient ischemic attack within the last 12 months. If arterial thrombosis is suspected, FRUZAQLA should be discontinued immediately. INTERACTIONS Effects of other medicinal products on the pharmacokinetics of FRUZAQLA CYP3A inducers Co-administration of FRUZAQLA with rifampicin (a strong CYP3A inducer) 600 mg once daily decreased FRUZAQLA AUCinf by 65% and decreased Cmax by 12%. The concomitant use of FRUZAQLA with strong and moderate CYP3A inducers should be avoided. CYP3A inhibitors Co-administration of FRUZAQLA with itraconazole (a strong CYP3A inhibitor) 200 mg twice daily did not result in clinically meaningful changes in the area under the concentration-time curve (AUC) and Cmax of FRUZAQLA. No dose adjustment of FRUZAQLA is needed during concomitant use with CYP3A inhibitors. Gastric acid lowering agents Co-administration of FRUZAQLA with rabeprazole (a proton pump inhibitor) 40 mg once daily did not result in clinically meaningful changes in the AUC of FRUZAQLA. No dose adjustment of FRUZAQLA is needed during concomitant use with gastric acid lowering agents. Effect of FRUZAQLA on the pharmacokinetics of other medicinal products Medicinal products that are substrates of P-glycoprotein (P-gp) Co-administration of a single dose of dabigatran etexilate 150 mg (a P-gp substrate) with a single dose of FRUZAQLA 5 mg decreased AUC of dabigatran by 9%. No dose adjustment is recommended for P-gp substrates during concomitant use with FRUZAQLA. Medicinal products that are substrates of breast cancer resistance protein (BCRP) Co-administration of a single 10 mg dose of rosuvastatin (a BCRP substrate) with a single 5 mg dose of FRUZAQLA decreased AUC of rosuvastatin by 19%.

HUTCHMED and Innovent Jointly Announce NMPA Conditional Approval for ELUNATE® (Fruquintinib) in Combination with TYVYT® (Sintilimab Injection) for the Treatment of Advanced Endometrial Cancer

— First regulatory approval for fruquintinib combination therapy with an immune checkpoint inhibitor — Dec. 03, 2024 -- HUTCHMED (China) Limited (“HUTCHMED”) (Nasdaq/AIM:HCM; HKEX:13) and Innovent Biologics, Inc. (“Innovent”) (HKEX:1801) today jointly announce that the New Drug Application (“NDA”) for the combination of ELUNATE® (fruquintinib) and TYVYT® (sintilimab injection) has been granted conditional approval in China for the treatment of patients with advanced endometrial cancer with Mismatch Repair proficient (“pMMR”) tumors that have failed prior systemic therapy and are not candidates for curative surgery or radiation. This approval follows the priority review status and breakthrough therapy designation by the National Medical Products Administration (“NMPA”) of China and marks the first regulatory approval for the combination of fruquintinib with a leading immune checkpoint inhibitor. The conditional approval by the NMPA was supported by registration stage data from FRUSICA-1, the endometrial cancer registration cohort of a multi-center, open-label Phase II study investigating fruquintinib in combination with sintilimab in endometrial cancer patients who have experienced disease recurrence, disease progression or intolerable toxicity with treatment on platinum-based doublet chemotherapy. Results from FRUSICA-1 were presented at the American Society of Clinical Oncology annual meeting in June 2024.1 The study results showed that IRC-assessed objective response rate (ORR) and disease control rate (DCR) was 35.6% and 88.5% respectively. The combination treatment showed rapid on-set efficacy, with a median time to response (TTR) of only 1.6 months. The median progression free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) reached 9.5 months and 21.3 months respectively. Adverse events are consistent with those reported for similar immunotherapy and antiangiogenic agents combination treatments. Additional details can be found at clinicaltrials.gov, using identifier NCT03903705. “This approval of fruquintinib plus sintilimab could represent a paradigm shift in managing this challenging disease. This innovative combination not only leverages the synergistic effects of targeted therapy and immunotherapy, but also addresses a critical gap in treatments available for patients with limited responses to traditional therapies,” said Prof. Xiaohua Wu, Director of the Department of Gynecologic Oncology at Fudan University Affiliated Cancer Hospital and Principal Investigator of the FRUSICA-1 study. “With the promising efficacy and manageable safety profile observed in clinical trials, we are eager to have this treatment option available to patients. It brings us closer to our goal of improving survival and enhancing quality of life for patients living with advanced endometrial cancer.” “This NMPA approval of fruquintinib in combination with sintilimab represents a significant advancement for patients with advanced endometrial cancer who have long await more effective treatments. It underscores the potential of fruquintinib to be used with other therapeutic agents to improve patient outcomes,” said Dr. Michael Shi, Head of R&D and Chief Medical Officer of HUTCHMED. “It is also a testament to our ongoing efforts to extend the clinical benefit of fruquintinib to a broader patient population. We are eager to make this innovative treatment available to advanced endometrial cancer patients as soon as we can and will continue to explore further opportunities to bring hope to more patients battling cancer.” Dr. Hui Zhou, Senior Vice President of Innovent, stated: “This approval of sintilimab and fruquintinib combination therapy marks a meaningful advancement in the treatment landscape for advanced endometrial cancer. Together with HUTCHMED, we aim to provide a novel treatment option that improves survival rates and quality of life for patients facing limited treatment options against this aggressive cancer. TYVYT® (sintilimab injection), as a cornerstone in immuno-therapy, continues to be evaluated in clinical trials in combination with novel modalities. We remain steadfast in our commitment to reinforcing the leadership position of TYVYT® (sintilimab injection) in immuno-therapy and driving forward treatment solutions through innovation and cooperation.” In July 2023, the NMPA granted Breakthrough Therapy Designation to the combination of fruquintinib and sintilimab for this potential indication. This designation recognizes the potential of a therapy to address a severe condition with no effective treatment options, and where clinical evidence demonstrates substantial advantages over existing therapies. A Phase III confirmatory study of the fruquintinib and sintilimab combination in this setting has been planned (NCT06584032). Endometrial cancer originates in the uterus and remains a significant global health challenge. In 2020, approximately 417,000 people were diagnosed with endometrial cancer, resulting in around 97,000 deaths.2 Іn China alone, an estimated 82,000 new cases and 17,000 were reported in 2020.3 While early-stage endometrial cancer can often be surgically resected, recurrent and/or metastatic endometrial cancer remains an area of high unmet need with poor outcomes and limited treatment options.4,5,6 Fruquintinib is a selective oral inhibitor of all three vascular endothelial growth factor (“VEGF”) receptors (VEGFR-1, -2 and -3). VEGFR inhibitors play a pivotal role in inhibiting tumor angiogenesis. Fruquintinib was designed to have enhanced selectivity that limits off-target kinase activity, allowing for drug exposure that achieves sustained target inhibition and flexibility for potential use as part of a combination therapy. Fruquintinib is approved for marketing for the treatment of patients with metastatic colorectal cancer who have previously received fluoropyrimidine, oxaliplatin and irinotecan-based chemotherapy, and those who have previously received or are not suitable for receiving anti-VEGF therapy or anti-epidermal growth factor receptor (“EGFR”) therapy (RAS wild-type) in China, where it is co-developed and co-marketed by HUTCHMED and Eli Lilly and Company under the brand name ELUNATE®. It was included in the China National Reimbursement Drug List (“NRDL”) in January 2020. Since its launch in China, over 100,000 patients with colorectal cancer have been treated with fruquintinib. Takeda has the exclusive worldwide license to further develop, commercialize, and manufacture fruquintinib outside of mainland China, Hong Kong and Macau, and markets under the FRUZAQLA® brand name. Fruquintinib received approval in the US in November 2023, in the EU in June 2024, in Switzerland in August 2024, in Canada, Japan and the United Kingdom in September 2024 and in Argentina, Australia and Singapore in October 2024. Regulatory applications are progressing in many other jurisdictions. The global regulatory submissions are based on data from two large, randomized, controlled Phase III trials, the global, multi-regional FRESCO-2 trial and the FRESCO trial conducted in China, showing consistent benefit among a total of 734 patients treated with fruquintinib. Safety profiles were consistent across trials. Results from the FRESCO-2 trial were published in The Lancet in June 2023,7 while results from the FRESCO trial were published in The Journal of the American Medical Association, JAMA.8 Sintilimab, marketed as TYVYT® (sintilimab injection) in China, is a PD-1 immunoglobulin G4 monoclonal antibody co-developed by Innovent and Eli Lilly and Company. Sintilimab is a type of immunoglobulin G4 monoclonal antibody, which binds to PD-1 molecules on the surface of T-cells, blocks the PD-1 / PD-Ligand 1 (PD-L1) pathway, and reactivates T-cells to kill cancer cells.9 In China, sintilimab has been approved and included in the updated NRDL for seven indications. The updated NRDL reimbursement scope for TYVYT® (sintilimab injection) includes: For the treatment of relapsed or refractory classic Hodgkin’s lymphoma after two lines or later of systemic chemotherapy; For the first-line treatment of unresectable locally advanced or metastatic non-squamous non-small cell lung cancer lacking EGFR or ALK driver gene mutations; For the treatment of patients with EGFR-mutated locally advanced or metastatic non-squamous non-small cell lung cancer who progressed after EGFR-TKI therapy; For the first-line treatment of unresectable locally advanced or metastatic squamous non-small cell lung cancer; For the first-line treatment of unresectable or metastatic hepatocellular carcinoma with no prior systematic treatment; For the first-line treatment of unresectable locally advanced, recurrent or metastatic esophageal squamous cell carcinoma; For the first-line treatment of unresectable locally advanced, recurrent or metastatic gastric or gastroesophageal junction adenocarcinoma. Furthermore, sintilimab’s eighth indication, in combination with fruquintinib for the treatment of patients with advanced endometrial cancer with pMMR tumors that have failed prior systemic therapy and are not candidates for curative surgery or radiation, has been approved by the NMPA in December 2024. In addition, two clinical studies of sintilimab have met their primary endpoints: Phase II study of sintilimab monotherapy as second-line treatment of esophageal squamous cell carcinoma; Phase III study of sintilimab monotherapy as second-line treatment for squamous non-small cell lung cancer with disease progression following platinum-based chemotherapy.

Innovent and HUTCHMED Jointly Announce NMPA Conditional Approval for TYVYT® (Sintilimab Injection) in Combination with ELUNATE® (Fruquintinib) for the Treatment of Advanced Endometrial Cancer

SAN FRANCISCO, U.S. and SUZHOU, China, Dec. 3, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Innovent Biologics, Inc. ("Innovent") (HKEX: 01801), a world-class biopharmaceutical company that develops, manufactures and commercializes high-quality medicines for the treatment of oncology, cardiovascular and metabolic, autoimmune, ophthalmology and other major diseases, and HUTCHMED (China) Limited ("HUTCHMED") (Nasdaq/AIM:HCM; HKEX:13)，jointly announce that the New Drug Application (NDA) for the combination of TYVYT® (sintilimab injection) and ELUNATE® (fruquintinib) has been granted conditional approval in China for the treatment of patients with advanced endometrial cancer with Mismatch Repair proficient (pMMR) tumors that have failed prior systemic therapy and are not candidates for curative surgery or radiation. This approval follows the priority review status and breakthrough therapy designation by the National Medical Products Administration (NMPA) of China and marks the eighth approved indication for TYVYT® (sintilimab injection). The conditional approval by the NMPA was supported by registration stage data from FRUSICA-1, the endometrial cancer registration cohort of a multi-center, open-label Phase 2 study investigating sintilimab in combination with fruquintinib in endometrial cancer patients who have experienced disease recurrence, disease progression or intolerable toxicity with treatment on platinum-based doublet chemotherapy. Results from FRUSICA-1 were presented at the American Society of Clinical Oncology annual meeting in June 2024.[i] The study results showed that IRC-assessed ORR and DCR was 35.6% and 88.5% respectively; the combination treatment showed rapid on-set efficacy, with a median time to tumor response (mTTR) of only 1.6 months. The median PFS and OS reached 9.5 months and 21.3 months, respectively. Adverse events are consistent with those reported for similar immunotherapy and antiangiogenic agents combination treatments. Additional details can be found at clinicaltrials.gov, using identifier NCT03903705. A Phase 3 confirmatory study of the sintilimab and fruquintinib combination in this setting has been planned (NCT06584032). "This approval of sintilimab plus fruquintinib could represent a paradigm shift in managing this challenging disease. This innovative combination not only leverages the synergistic effects of targeted therapy and immunotherapy, but also addresses a critical gap in treatments available for patients with limited responses to traditional therapies," said Prof. Xiaohua Wu, Director of the Department of Gynecologic Oncology at Fudan University Affiliated Cancer Hospital and Principal Investigator of the FRUSICA-1 study. "With the promising efficacy and manageable safety profile observed in clinical trials, we are eager to have this treatment option available to patients. It brings us closer to our goal of improving survival and enhancing quality of life for patients living with advanced endometrial cancer." Dr. Hui Zhou, Senior Vice President of Innovent, stated: "The approval of sintilimab and fruquintinib combination therapy marks a meaningful advancement in the treatment landscape for advanced endometrial cancer. Together with HUTCHMED, we aim to provide a novel treatment option that improves survival rates and quality of life for patients facing limited treatment options against this aggressive cancer. TYVYT® (sintilimab injection), as a cornerstone in immuno-therapy, continues to be evaluated in clinical trials in combination with novel modalities. We remain steadfast in our commitment to reinforcing the leadership position of TYVYT® (sintilimab injection) in immuno-therapy and driving forward treatment solutions through innovation and cooperation." "This NMPA approval of fruquintinib in combination with sintilimab represents a significant advancement for patients with advanced endometrial cancer who have long awaited more effective treatments. It underscores the potential of fruquintinib to be used with other therapeutic agents to improve patient outcomes," said Dr. Michael Shi, Head of R&D and Chief Medical Officer of HUTCHMED. "It is also a testament to our ongoing efforts to extend the clinical benefit of fruquintinib to a broader patient population. We are eager to make this innovative treatment available to advanced endometrial cancer patients as soon as we can and will continue to explore further opportunities to bring hope to more patients battling cancer."
