Pertuzumab and Trastuzumab: the Rationale Way to Synergy
Anais da Academia Brasileira de Ciências (2016) 88(1 Suppl.): 565-577 (Annals of the Brazilian Academy of Sciences) Printed version ISSN 0001-3765 / Online version ISSN 1678-2690 http://dx.doi.org/10.1590/0001-3765201620150178 www.scielo.br/aabc Pertuzumab and trastuzumab: the rationale way to synergy SANDRINE RICHARD1, FRÉDÉRIC SELLE1, JEAN-PIERRE LOTZ1,2, AHMED KHALIL1, JOSEPH GLIGOROV1,2 and DANIELE G.

Despite this achievement, most patients with HER2-positive metastatic breast cancer still show progression of their disease, highlighting the need for new therapies. The continuous interest in novel targeted agents led to the development of pertuzumab, the first in a new class of agents, the HER dimerization inhibitors. Pertuzumab is a novel recombinant humanized antibody directed against extracellular domain II of HER2 protein that is required for the heterodimerization of HER2 with other HER receptors, leading to the activation of downstream signalling pathways. Pertuzumab combined with trastuzumab plus docetaxel was approved for the first-line treatment of patients with HER2-positive metastatic breast cancer and is currently used as a standard of care in this indication. -

Despite early disappointments, monoclonal antibodies targeting CD38 (daratumumab) and signaling lymphocytic activation molecule F7 (SLAMF7) (elotuzumab) have become available for patients with multiple myeloma in the same year. Specifically, phase 3 clinical trials of combination therapies incorporating daratumumab or elotuzumab indicate both efficacy and a very favorable toxicity profile. These therapeutic monoclonal antibodies for multiple myeloma can kill target cells via antibody-dependent cell-mediated cytotoxicity, complement-dependent cytotoxicity, and antibody-dependent phagocytosis, as well as by direct blockade of signaling cascades. -

The Potential of Adoptive Transfer of Γ9δ2 T Cells to Enhance
www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN The potential of adoptive transfer of γ9δ2 T cells to enhance blinatumomab’s antitumor activity against B‑cell malignancy Yun‑Hsiang Chen1, Yun Wang2, Cheng‑Hao Liao3 & Shu‑Ching Hsu4,5,6,7,8,9* Blinatumomab, a bispecifc T cell engager (BiTE) antibody targeting CD19 and CD3ε, can redirect T cells toward CD19‑positive tumor cells and has been approved to treat relapsed/refractory B‑cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (R/R B‑ALL). However, chemotherapeutic regimens can severely reduce T cells’ number and cytotoxic function, leading to an inadequate response to blinatumomab treatment in patients. In addition, it was reported that a substantial portion of R/R B‑ALL patients failing blinatumomab treatment had the extramedullary disease, indicating the poor ability of blinatumomab in treating extramedullary disease. In this study, we investigated whether the adoptive transfer of ex vivo expanded γ9δ2 T cells could act as the efector of blinatumomab to enhance blinatumomab’s antitumor activity against B‑cell malignancies in vivo. Repeated infusion of blinatumomab and human γ9δ2 T cells led to more prolonged survival than that of blinatumomab or human γ9δ2 T cells alone in the mice xenografted with Raji cells. Furthermore, adoptive transfer of γ9δ2 T cells reduced tumor mass outside the bone marrow, indicating the potential of γ9δ2 T cells to eradicate the extramedullary disease. Our results suggest that the addition of γ9δ2 T cells to the blinatumomab treatment regimens could be an efective approach to enhancing blinatumomab’s therapeutic efcacy. The concept of this strategy may also be applied to other antigen‑specifc BiTE therapies for other malignancies. -

Dual Targeting of HER2-Positive Cancer with Trastuzumab Emtansine and Pertuzumab: Critical Role for Neuregulin Blockade in Antitumor Response to Combination Therapy

Albain9, Nadia Harbeck10, Veronique Dieras7, Diana Crivellari11, Liang Fang2, Ellie Guardino3, Steven R. Olsen3, Lisa M. Crocker4, and Mark X. Sliwkowski1 Abstract Purpose: Targeting HER2 with multiple HER2-directed therapies represents a promising area of treatment for HER2-positive cancers. We investigated combining the HER2-directed antibody–drug con- jugate trastuzumab emtansine (T-DM1) with the HER2 dimerization inhibitor pertuzumab (Perjeta). Experimental Design: Drug combination studies with T-DM1 and pertuzumab were performed on cultured tumor cells and in mouse xenograft models of HER2-amplified cancer. In patients with HER2- positive locally advanced or metastatic breast cancer (mBC), T-DM1 was dose-escalated with a fixed standard pertuzumab dose in a 3þ3 phase Ib/II study design. Results: Treatment of HER2-overexpressing tumor cells in vitro with T-DM1 plus pertuzumab resulted in synergistic inhibition of cell proliferation and induction of apoptotic cell death. The presence of the HER3 ligand, heregulin (NRG-1b), reduced the cytotoxic activity of T-DM1 in a subset of breast cancer lines; this effect was reversed by the addition of pertuzumab. Results from mouse xenograft models showed enhanced antitumor efficacy with T-DM1 and pertuzumab resulting from the unique antitumor activities of each agent. -
