Abstract
This review discusses the current and future landscape of advanced gastrointestinal stromal tumor (GIST) treatment. It covers the role of tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs), specifically imatinib, and further treatment options, such as sunitinib, regorafenib, and ripretinib, as well as avapritinib for platelet-derived growth factor receptor alpha D842V mutations. In addition, this review emphasizes individualized treatment strategies within multidisciplinary expert teams, including surgery and other locoregional therapies, together with the importance of mutation-guided approaches, particularly for wild-type GISTs. Finally, it explores the potential of next-generation KIT inhibitors, combination therapies, and other investigational approaches.

Abstract
Gastrointestinal stromal tumours (GISTs) are mesenchymal tumours that originate from the interstitial cells of Cajal. GISTs are mainly driven by gain-of-function mutations in receptor tyrosine kinase or platelet-derived growth factor receptor alpha. Surgical resection is the only curative treatment for localized tumours and all currently approved medical GIST treatments are based on orally available tyrosine kinase inhibitors. Recent discoveries in the molecular and clinical features of GISTs have greatly impacted GIST management. Due to the provincially rather than nationally administered Canadian healthcare system, there have been inconsistencies in the treatment of GISTs across the country. Therefore, guidance on the latest knowledge, clinical management and treatment of GIST is needed to standardize the approach to GIST management nationwide. To establish pan-Canadian guidance, provide up-to-date data and harmonize the clinical practice of GIST management in high- and low-throughput centres across Canada; a panel of 20 physicians with extensive clinical experience in GIST management reviewed relevant literature. This included radiologists, pathologists, interventional radiologists, surgeons and medical oncologists across Canada. The structured literature focused on seven key domains: molecular profiling, radiological techniques/reporting, targeted localized therapy, intricacies of systemic treatments, emerging tests, multidisciplinary care and patient advocacy. This literature review, along with clinical expertise and opinion, was used to develop this concise and clinically relevant consensus paper to harmonize the knowledge and clinical practice on GIST management across Canada. The content presented here will help guide healthcare providers, especially in Canada, in terms of approaching and managing GIST.

Hemodialysis and imatinib: Plasma levels, efficacy and tolerability in a patient with metastatic GIST - Case report. Heliyon 2024; 10:e28494. [PMID: 38596050 PMCID: PMC11002597 DOI: 10.1016/j.heliyon.2024.e28494] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/26/2023] [Revised: 03/13/2024] [Accepted: 03/20/2024] [Indexed: 04/11/2024] Open
Abstract
Purpose To study plasma levels, efficacy and tolerability of imatinib in a patient affected by metastatic GIST treated with oral Imatinib and undergoing hemodialysis. Patients and methods The patient suffered from metastatic GIST to the liver having a mutation of exon 9 of KIT. He was on hemodialysis and received first-line treatment with imatinib 400 mg/day. Results The overall mean plasma level of imatinib was 1875,4 ng/ml pre-dialysis, 1553,0 ng/ml post-dialysis and 1998,1 ng/ml post-24h. In red blood cells the overall mean level of imatinib was 619,5 ng/ml pre-dialysis, 484,9 ng/ml post-dialysis and 663,1 ng/ml post-24h. The plasma level of nor-imatinib/imatinib was 16,2% pre-dialysis, 15,6% post-dialysis and 16,4% post-24h. Comparing our findings regarding levels of imatinib in plasma and RBC, we found a statistically significant difference between pre-dialysis and post-dialysis (respectively p < 0,001 and p = 0,002), post-dialysis and post-24h (both p < 0,001), pre-dialysis and post-24h (respectively p = 0.035 and p = 0,042). Ultimately, regarding nor-imatinib/imatinib in plasma, we did not find any statistically significant difference between pre-dialysis and post-dialysis (p = 0,091), post-dialysis and post-24h (p = 0,091), pre-dialysis and post-24h (p = 0.903). Currently the patient is receiving oral imatinib 400 mg/day with radiological evidence of response. Conclusion In this case, hemodialysis did not affect significantly imatinib plasma levels. The statistically significant difference between pre- and post-dialysis can be explained by the fact that dialysis may likely contribute to a small portion of the normal metabolism of imatinib. The evaluation of imatinib levels in RBC and of its main metabolite in plasma also suggests that hemodialysis did not affect other aspects of the elimination of the drug.

Abstract
Advances in molecular genetics have revolutionized our understanding of the pathogenesis, progression, and therapeutic options for treating gastrointestinal (GI) cancers. This chapter provides a comprehensive overview of the molecular landscape of GI cancers, focusing on key genetic alterations implicated in tumorigenesis across various anatomical sites including GIST, colon and rectum, and pancreas. Emphasis is placed on critical oncogenic pathways, such as mutations in tumor suppressor genes, oncogenes, chromosomal instability, microsatellite instability, and epigenetic modifications. The role of molecular biomarkers in predicting prognosis, guiding treatment decisions, and monitoring therapeutic response is discussed, highlighting the integration of genomic profiling into clinical practice. Finally, we address the evolving landscape of precision oncology in GI cancers, considering targeted therapies and immunotherapies.

Abstract
Gastrointestinal stromal tumor (GIST) is the most common malignant neoplasm of mesenchymal origin. GIST spans a wide clinical spectrum that ranges from tumors with essentially no metastatic potential to malignant and life-threatening spread diseases. Gain-of-function mutations in KIT or PDGFRA receptor tyrosine kinases are the crucial drivers of most GISTs, responsible for tumor initiation and evolution throughout the entire course of the disease. The introduction of tyrosine kinase inhibitors targeting these receptors has substantially improved the outcomes in this formerly chemoresistant cancer. As of today, five agents hold regulatory approval for the treatment of GIST: imatinib, sunitinib, regorafenib, ripretinib, and avapritinib. This, in turn, represents a success for a rare neoplasm. During the past two decades, GIST has become a paradigmatic model in cancer for multidisciplinary work, given the disease-specific particularities regarding tumor biology and tumor evolution. Herein, we review currently available evidence for the management of GIST. This clinical practice guideline has been developed by a multidisciplinary expert panel (oncologist, pathologist, surgeon, molecular biologist, radiologist, and representative of patients' advocacy groups) from the Spanish Group for Sarcoma Research, and it is conceived to provide, from a critical perspective, the standard approach for diagnosis, treatment, and follow-up.

Abstract
Most gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GIST) are driven by activating mutations in Proto-oncogene c-KIT (KIT) or PDGFRA receptor tyrosine kinases (RTK). The emergence of effective therapies targeting these mutations has revolutionized the management of advanced GIST. However, following initiation of first-line imatinib, a tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI), nearly all patients will develop resistance within 2 years through the emergence of secondary resistance mutations in KIT, typically in the Adenosine Triphosphate (ATP)-binding site or activation loop of the kinase domain. Moreover, some patients have de novo resistance to imatinib, such as those with mutations in PDGFRA exon 18 or those without KIT or PDGFRA mutation. To target resistance, research efforts are primarily focused on developing next-generation inhibitors of KIT and/or PDGFRA, which can inhibit alternate receptor conformations or unique mutations, and compounds that impact complimentary pathogenic processes or epigenetic events. Here, we review the literature on the medical management of high-risk localized and advanced GIST and provide an update on clinical trial approaches to this disease.

Sunitinib versus imatinib dose escalation after failure of imatinib standard dose in patients with advanced Gastrointestinal stromal tumors - a real-world multi-center study. Transl Oncol 2023; 30:101641.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Whether to escalate imatinib dosage or directly switch to sunitinib in gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs) failing on standard dose 400 mg/d of imatinib is still controversial. METHODS We evaluated progression-free survival (PFS), overall survival (OS), and time to sunitinib failure (TTSF) of patients selecting imatinib dose escalation or directly switching to sunitinib after the failure of imatinib 400 mg/d therapy from 3 tertery referring centers between January 2008 to December 2016. RESULTS A total of 240 patients receiving sunitinib (37.5 mg continuous daily dose or 50 mg 4 weeks on with 2 weeks off) for at least 8 weeks were examined. After failure on imatinib 400 mg/d, 100 (49.3%) patients had dose escalation to 600 mg or 800 mg per day (IM group, imatinib group), and 103 (50.7%) directly switched to sunitinib (SU group, sunitinib group). The PFS in the SU and IM groups was 12 months and 5.0 months (P < 0.001), respectively. TTSF or OS in both groups was not statistically significantly different. CONCLUSIONS After the progression of imatinib standard-dose treatment in recurrent/metastatic GISTs, the PFS of patients directly switching to sunitinib was significantly longer compared with the PFS of patients with imatinib dose escalation. However, when the patients continued with sunitinib therapy after the failure of IM dose escalation, TTSF and OS in the IM group were similar to those in the SU group. Further exploration of the characteristics of the population benefiting from imatinib dose escalation are warranted.

Abstract
PURPOSE Imatinib is used in gastrointestinal stromal tumours (GIST) and chronic myeloid leukaemia (CML). Oncology patients demonstrate altered physiology compared to healthy adults, e.g. reduced haematocrit, increased α-1 acid glycoprotein, decreased albumin and reduced glomerular filtration rate (GFR), which may influence imatinib pharmacokinetics. Given that Chinese cancer patients often report raised imatinib plasma concentrations and wider inter-individual variability reported in trough concentration when compared to Caucasian cancer patients, therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM) has been advocated. METHOD This study utilised a previously validated a Chinese cancer population and assessed the impact of imatinib virtual-TDM in Chinese and Caucasian cancer populations across a dosing range from 200-800 mg daily. RESULTS Staged dose titration to 800 mg daily, resulted in recapitulation to within the target therapeutic range for 50 % (Chinese) and 42.1% (Caucasian) subjects possessing plasma concentration < 550 ng/mL when dosed at 400 mg daily. For subjects with plasma concentrations >1500 ng/mL when dosed at 400 mg daily, a dose reduction to 200 mg once daily was able to recover 67 % (Chinese) and 87.4 % (Caucasian) patients to the target therapeutic range. CONCLUSION Virtual TDM highlights the benefit of pharmacokinetic modelling to optimising treatments in challenging oncology population groups.

Abstract
Gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GIST) are the most common type of soft tissue sarcoma that occur throughout the gastrointestinal tract. Most of these tumors are caused by oncogenic activating mutations in the KIT or PDGFRA genes. The NCCN Guidelines for GIST provide recommendations for the diagnosis, evaluation, treatment, and follow-up of patients with these tumors. These NCCN Guidelines Insights summarize the panel discussion behind recent important updates to the guidelines, including revised systemic therapy options for unresectable, progressive, or metastatic GIST based on mutational status, and updated recommendations for the management of GIST that develop resistance to specific tyrosine kinase inhibitors.

Sun Y, Yue L, Xu P, Hu W. An overview of agents and treatments for PDGFRA-mutated gastrointestinal stromal tumors. Front Oncol 2022; 12:927587. [PMID: 36119525 PMCID: PMC9471148 DOI: 10.3389/fonc.2022.927587] [Citation(s) in RCA: 15] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/24/2022] [Accepted: 08/15/2022] [Indexed: 11/25/2022] Open
Abstract
Platelet-derived growth factor receptor A (PDGFRA) mutations occur in approximately 10-15% of gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs). These tumors with PDGFRA mutations have a different pathogenesis, clinical characteristics, and treatment response compared to tumors with receptor tyrosine kinase protein (KIT) mutations (60-70%). Many clinical studies have investigated the use of tyrosine kinase inhibitors mainly in patients with KIT mutations; however, there is a lack of attention to the PDGFRA-mutated molecular subtype. The main effective inhibitors of PDGFRA are ripretinib, avapritinib, and crenolanib, and their mechanisms and efficacy in GIST (as confirmed in clinical trials) are described in this review. Some multi-targeted tyrosine kinase inhibitors with inhibitory effects on this molecular subtype are also introduced and summarized in this paper. This review focuses on PDGFRA-mutated GISTs, introduces their clinical characteristics, downstream molecular signaling pathways, and existing resistance mechanisms. We focus on the most recent literature that describes the development of PDGFRA inhibitors and their use in clinical trials, as well as the potential benefits from different combination therapy strategies.

Abstract
Background: The introduction of tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) therapy has dramatically improved the clinical effectiveness of patients with locally advanced and/or metastatic gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GIST), and this systematic review was conducted aiming at the cost-effectiveness analysis of TKIs in GIST. Methods: A thorough literature search of online databases was performed, using appropriate terms such as “gastrointestinal stromal tumor or GIST,” “cost-effectiveness,” and “economic evaluation.” Data extraction was conducted independently by two authors, and completeness of reporting and quality of the evaluation were assessed. The systematic review was conducted following the PRISMA statement. Results: Published between 2005 and 2020, 15 articles were incorporated into the systematic review. For advanced GIST, imatinib followed by sunitinib was considered cost-effective, and regorafenib was cost-effective compared with imatinib re-challenge therapy in the third-line treatment. For resectable GIST, 3-year adjuvant imatinib therapy represented a cost-effective treatment option. The precision medicine-assisted imatinib treatment was cost-effective compared with empirical treatment. Conclusion: Although identified studies varied in predicted costs and quality-adjusted life years, there was general agreement in study conclusions. More cost-effectiveness analysis should be conducted regarding more TKIs that have been approved for the treatment of GIST.

Health-Related Quality of Life and Side Effects in Gastrointestinal Stromal Tumor (GIST) Patients Treated with Tyrosine Kinase Inhibitors: A Systematic Review of the Literature. Cancers (Basel) 2022; 14:cancers14071832. [PMID: 35406604 PMCID: PMC8997462 DOI: 10.3390/cancers14071832] [Citation(s) in RCA: 12] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/28/2022] [Revised: 03/30/2022] [Accepted: 04/01/2022] [Indexed: 02/04/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND The introduction of tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) has revolutionized the treatment of gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs), resulting in a substantial gain in median overall survival. Subsequently, health-related quality of life (HRQoL) has become more relevant. Here, we systematically review the available literature on HRQoL issues and side effects of different TKIs registered for the treatment of GIST. METHODS A search through five databases was performed. Full reports in English describing HRQoL outcomes and/or side effects in GIST patients on TKI therapy were included. RESULTS A total of 104 papers were included; 13 studies addressed HRQoL, and 96 studies investigated adverse events. HRQoL in patients treated with imatinib, regorafenib, and ripretinib remained stable, whereas most sunitinib-treated patients reported a decrease in HRQoL. Severe fatigue and fear of recurrence or progression were specifically assessed as HRQoL issues and had a negative impact on overall HRQoL as well as psychological and physical well-being. The majority of studies focused on physician-reported side effects. Nearly all GIST patients treated with a TKI experienced at least one adverse event, mostly mild to moderate. CONCLUSIONS Despite the fact that almost all patients treated with a TKI experienced side effects, this did not seem to affect overall HRQoL during TKI therapy. In daily practice, it are the side effects that hamper a patient's HRQoL resulting in treatment adjustments, suggesting that the reported side effects were underestimated by physicians, or the measures used to assess HRQoL do not capture all relevant issues that determine a GIST patient's HRQoL.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Chemotherapy is ineffective in treating patients with Gastrointestinal Stromal Tumour (GIST). However, several types of tyrosine kinase inhibitors have been investigated since the approval of imatinib in 2001. The purpose of this report was to systematically review studies on the efficacy of neoadjuvant, adjuvant, and lifelong medical oncological treatment of GIST. METHODS The Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses guidelines were followed throughout the review process. The protocol was submitted to the International prospective register of systematic reviews database (ID 251724). A systematic literature search was performed, including phase II- and III studies of biological treatment, reporting on treatment effect in patients with GIST. RESULTS Of 308 identified publications, 42 studies were included in this review. CONCLUSION This review gives an overview of the existing evidence for approved lines of oncological treatments and potential alternatives for patients with GIST in the neoadjuvant-, adjuvant- and life-long setting.

Abstract
Gastrointestinal stromal tumours (GISTs) are the most common gastrointestinal tract mesenchymal tumours. Tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) have transformed the management of advanced GIST. Imatinib was the first TKI to gain approval as management for patients with advanced GIST, establishing a new standard of care. Since then, as a result of several trials including the GRID and INVICTUS studies, we now have five lines of approved targeted therapy, including imatinib, sunitinib, regorafenib, ripretinib and avapritinib for the treatment of unresectable, advanced GISTs. In this review, the Australasian Gastrointestinal Trials Group (AGITG) provide an overview of the key trials that have changed clinical practice, discuss the molecular drivers of GISTs, the importance of molecular testing and directing therapy according to molecular targets, as well as future strategies in the management of advanced GISTs.

Ripretinib intrapatient dose escalation after disease progression provides clinically meaningful outcomes in advanced gastrointestinal stromal tumour. Eur J Cancer 2021; 155:236-244.

Abstract
PURPOSE Ripretinib is a switch-control tyrosine kinase inhibitor that broadly inhibits KIT and platelet-derived growth factor receptor α kinase signalling. Ripretinib showed preliminary efficacy in patients with advanced gastrointestinal stromal tumour (GIST) in a phase I study across a range of doses. Results were confirmed in the phase III INVICTUS study, and ripretinib 150 mg once daily (QD) was subsequently approved as a ≥fourth-line therapy. Here, we report the phase I study results of intrapatient dose escalation (IPDE) in patients with GIST treated across second, third and later lines of therapy. METHODS Patients with advanced GIST who experienced disease progression (PD) at ripretinib 150 mg QD could dose escalate to 150 mg twice daily (BID). Progression-free survival (PFS) 1 was calculated from the date of the first dose of ripretinib 150 mg QD to PD (as per Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumours 1.1); PFS2 was from the date of IPDE (150 mg BID) to PD or death. Treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs) were summarised by dosing periods and compared descriptively. RESULTS Of 142 patients with GIST receiving ripretinib 150 mg QD, 67 underwent IPDE. IPDE provided benefit across all lines of therapy; the median PFS2 was 5.6, 3.3 and 4.6 months for patients on second-, third- and ≥fourth-line therapy, respectively. A partial metabolic response after IPDE was demonstrated in 13 of 37 patients with available positron emission tomography scans. TEAEs reported at both doses were similar. CONCLUSION Ripretinib IPDE after PD provided continued clinical benefit in advanced GIST across second, third and later lines of therapy with a similar safety profile to that observed with the QD regimen.

Clinical Benefit of Ripretinib Dose Escalation After Disease Progression in Advanced Gastrointestinal Stromal Tumor: An Analysis of the INVICTUS Study. Oncologist 2021; 26:e2053-e2060. [PMID: 34313371 PMCID: PMC8571742 DOI: 10.1002/onco.13917] [Citation(s) in RCA: 18] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/28/2021] [Accepted: 07/20/2021] [Indexed: 12/16/2022] Open
Abstract
Background Ripretinib 150 mg once daily (QD) is indicated for advanced gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs) as at least fourth‐line therapy. In INVICTUS, ripretinib intrapatient dose escalation (IPDE) to 150 mg b.i.d. was allowed after progressive disease (PD) on 150 mg QD by blinded independent central review using modified RECIST 1.1. We report the efficacy and safety of ripretinib IPDE to 150 mg b.i.d. after PD among patients randomized to ripretinib 150 mg QD in the INVICTUS study. Materials and Methods Tumor imaging was performed every 28‐day cycle for the first four cycles in the ripretinib 150 mg QD period and then every other cycle, including the 150 mg b.i.d. period. Among the ripretinib IPDE patients, progression‐free survival (PFS)1 was the time from randomization until PD; PFS2 was the time from the first dose of ripretinib 150 mg b.i.d. to PD or death. Results Among 43 ripretinib IPDE patients, median PFS1 was 4.6 months (95% confidence interval [CI], 2.7–6.4) and median PFS2 was 3.7 months (95% CI, 3.1–5.3). Median overall survival was 18.4 months (95% CI, 14.5–not estimable). Ripretinib 150 mg b.i.d. (median duration of treatment 3.7 months) was well tolerated with new or worsening grade 3–4 treatment‐emergent adverse events (TEAEs) of anemia in six (14%) and abdominal pain in three (7%) patients. Ripretinib 150 mg b.i.d. was discontinued because of TEAEs in seven (16%) patients. Conclusion Ripretinib 150 mg b.i.d. after PD on 150 mg QD may provide additional clinically meaningful benefit with an acceptable safety profile in patients with at least fourth‐line GISTs. Implications for Practice Of the 85 patients with advanced gastrointestinal stromal tumor having received at least three prior anticancer therapies randomized to ripretinib 150 mg once daily (QD) in the phase III INVICTUS study, 43 underwent ripretinib intrapatient dose escalation (IPDE) to 150 mg b.i.d. after progressive disease (PD). Median progression‐free survival was 4.6 months before and 3.7 months after ripretinib IPDE. The safety profile of ripretinib 150 mg b.i.d. was acceptable. These findings indicate ripretinib IPDE to 150 mg b.i.d. may provide additional clinical benefit in patients with PD on ripretinib 150 mg QD, for whom limited treatment options exist. This article presents further results from the INVICTUS study, focusing on patients who received ripretinib 150 mg QD who received intrapatient dose escalation to 150 mg b.i.d. after progressive disease.

Abstract
Before the introduction of tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs), the overall survival of patients with advanced or metastatic gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs) was 10 to 20 months because of the lack of approved therapies. In the last 20 years, a treatment algorithm for patients with advanced GISTs, which includes imatinib, sunitinib, and regorafenib as first‐, second‐, and third‐line therapies, respectively, has been established. Recently, 2 new TKIs have been approved: ripretinib for fourth‐line therapy and avapritinib as first‐line therapy in patients harboring platelet‐derived growth factor receptor α (PDGFRA) exon 18 D842V mutations. Additionally, there are several experimental therapies under investigation that could advance individualized patient care. All of these therapies have varying efficacies and safety profiles that warrant an updated treatment landscape review. This review article summarizes the efficacy and safety data currently available for conventional TKIs along with recently approved and experimental therapies. With evolving treatment options and effective toxicity management, patients with advanced gastrointestinal stromal tumors are living longer than ever before. Recently approved targeted therapies and the investigation of experimental treatment options have the potential to alter the current treatment algorithm and encourage personalized patient care.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION 90% of gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs) harbor an activating mutation in the KIT or PDGFRα oncogene, and these are known to confer imatinib sensitivity. AREAS COVERED The author reviews the data regarding the current management of GIST, mechanisms of resistance to imatinib, and new drugs currently in clinical development and provides his unique perspectives on the subject matter. EXPERT OPINION Several studies have shown that the response to imatinib in GIST patients mainly depends on the mutational status of KIT or PDGFRα. Moreover, most, if not all, patients treated with imatinib for advanced GIST will develop a secondary progressive disease under the treatment. In most cases, such progressions are the result of acquired resistance due to the occurrence of secondary c-KIT mutations, especially in GISTs with primary exon 11 mutations. Sunitinib and regorafenib are inhibitors of multiple tyrosine kinases, including KIT, PDGFRα, PDGFRβ, and VEGFRs, and are approved for the management of imatinib- and imatinib/sunitinib-refractory GIST patients, respectively. Clearly, better knowledge of the molecular mechanisms underlying the resistance to imatinib as well as the development of a new class of broad-spectrum tyrosine kinase inhibitors such as avapritinib and ripretinib will provide new individualized therapeutic strategies for GIST patients.

Abstract
Gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs) are the most common mesenchymal
neoplasms of the gastrointestinal tract. Although most patients with
advanced GISTs benefit from imatinib mesylate (IM) as standard
targeted therapy, the optimal duration of adjuvant IM for GIST
patients with high risk of recurrence who underwent surgical resection
remains unknown. In this article, we present a case of a ruptured GIST
of the small intestine accompanied by peritoneal metastases, which was
effectively treated by surgical procedure followed by long-term
adjuvant therapy with IM. Surgical resection was performed for the
ruptured small intestinal GIST, and multitude of peritoneal metastases
were cauterized. The patient received adjuvant therapy with IM (400
mg/day) for 12 years without an interruption or a dose change.
Peritoneal metastatic recurrence was observed by the follow-up
computed tomography scan obtained 12 years after surgery, and surgical
resection of the recurrent GIST was performed. The molecular
examination indicated a KIT exon 11 deletion mutation in both the
primary GIST and recurrent GIST. An additional point mutation was
observed in the recurrent GIST in exon 17 that caused resistance to
IM. The present case might indicate that extensive removal of the
tumor cells through surgery and long-term administration of IM without
an interruption or a dose change were important for achieving improved
recurrence-free survival in patients with ruptured GISTs of the small
intestine with peritoneal metastases.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Gastrointestinal stromal tumour (GIST) is commonly treated with tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs), but most patients ultimately develop secondary resistance. Cabozantinib, a multi-targeted TKI inhibitor, has activity in patient-derived GIST mouse xenograft models and can overcome compensatory MET signalling occurring on TKI treatment. European Organisation for Treatment of Cancer (EORTC) 1317 'CaboGIST' assessed the safety and activity of cabozantinib in patients with GIST who had progressed on imatinib and sunitinib. METHODS In this multi-center, open label, single arm phase II study, eligible GIST patients received oral cabozantinib (60 mg) once daily. Primary end-point was the progression-free survival rate at 12 weeks assessed by the local investigator per Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumours 1·1. If at least 21 of the first 41 eligible and evaluable patients were progression-free at week 12, the activity of cabozantinib was sufficient to warrant further exploration according to the A'Hern one-stage study design. FINDINGS A total of 50 eligible patients started treatment between 02/2017 and 08/2018, including four (8%) still continuing cabozantinib at clinical cut-off (09/2019). The number of 3-weekly treatment cycles ranged from 1 to 30. Among the first 41 eligible and evaluable patients, 24 were progression-free at week 12 (58·5%, 95% confidence interval [CI] 42·0-74·0%). Among all 50 patients, 30 were progression-free at week 12 (60%, 95% CI 45-74%). Seven patients achieved a partial response (14%, 95% CI 6-27%), and 34 had stable disease (68%, 95% CI 53-80%) as best response. Progression was seen in eight patients (16%, 95% CI 7-29%), and one was not evaluable. Disease control was achieved in 41 patients (82%, 95% CI 69-91%). Median progression-free survival was 5·5 months (95% CI 3·6-6·9). The most common adverse events were diarrhoea (76%), palmar-plantar erythrodysesthesia syndrome (60%), fatigue (50%), hypertension (42%), weight loss (40%) and oral mucositis (30%), with 32 (64%) patients requiring dose reductions, 27 (54%) having treatment interruptions and no cabozantinib-related deaths observed. INTERPRETATION EORTC 1317 met its primary end-point, with 24/41 patients being progression-free at week 12 of treatment. The objective response was 14% with an encouraging disease control rate of 82%. Results of this trial confirm preclinical findings and warrant further exploration of cabozantinib in GIST.

Abstract
Gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs) are the most common mesenchymal tumor in the digestive tract. Tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs), represented by imatinib, sunitinib, and regorafenib, have become the main treatment for recurrent and metastatic GISTs. With the wide application of mutation analysis and the precision medicine, molecular characteristics have been determined that not only predict the prognosis of patients with recurrent and metastatic GISTs, but also are closely related to the efficacy of first-, second- and third-line TKIs for GISTs, as well as other TKIs. Despite the significant effects of TKIs, the emergence of primary and secondary resistance ultimately leads to treatment failure and tumor progression. Currently, due to the signal transmission of KIT/PDGFRA during onset and tumor progression, strategies to counteract drug resistance include the replacement of TKIs and the development of new drugs that are directed towards carcinogenic mutations. In addition, it is also the embodiment of precision medicine for GISTs to explore new carcinogenic mechanisms and develop new drugs relying on new biotechnology. Surgery can benefit specific patients but its major purpose is to diminish the resistant clones. However, the prognosis of recurrent and metastatic patients is still unsatisfactory. Therefore, it is worth paying attention to how to maximize the benefits for patients.

Comprehensive review into the challenges of gastrointestinal tumors in the Gulf and Levant countries. World J Clin Cases 2020; 8:487-503. [PMID: 32110658 PMCID: PMC7031830 DOI: 10.12998/wjcc.v8.i3.487] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/24/2019] [Revised: 12/13/2019] [Accepted: 01/01/2020] [Indexed: 02/05/2023] Open
Abstract
Although gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs) are rare, with an incidence of 1/100000 per year, they are the most common sarcomas in the peritoneal cavity. Despite considerable progress in the diagnosis and treatment of GIST, about half of all patients are estimated to experience recurrence. With only two drugs, sunitinib and regorafenib, approved by the Food and Drug Administration, selecting treatment options after imatinib failure and coordinating multidisciplinary care remain challenging. In addition, physicians across the Middle East face some additional and unique challenges such as lack of published local data from clinical trials, national disease registries and regional scientific research, limited access to treatment, lack of standardization of care, and limited access to mutational analysis. Although global guidelines set a framework for the management of GIST, there are no standard local guidelines to guide clinical practice in a resource-limited environment. Therefore, a group of 11 experienced medical oncologists from across the Gulf and Levant region, part of the Rare Tumors Gastrointestinal Group, met over a period of one year to conduct a narrative review of the management of GIST and to describe regional challenges and gaps in patient management as an essential step to proposing local clinical practice recommendations.

Role of Resection Following Focal Progression with Standard Doses of Imatinib in Patients with Advanced Gastrointestinal Stromal Tumors: Results of Propensity Score Analyses. Oncologist 2019; 24:e1443-e1449. [PMID: 31315961 PMCID: PMC6975948 DOI: 10.1634/theoncologist.2019-0009] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/04/2019] [Accepted: 06/12/2019] [Indexed: 01/02/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND There are limited data on the clinical benefits of adding surgical resection in patients with focally progressive gastrointestinal stromal tumor (GIST). This study aims to compare the clinical outcomes of resection plus imatinib dose escalation or maintenance (S group) with imatinib dose escalation alone (NS group) in patients with advanced GIST following focal progression (FP) with standard doses of imatinib. MATERIALS AND METHODS A total of 90 patients with advanced GISTs who experienced FP with standard doses of imatinib were included in this retrospective analysis. The primary endpoints were time to imatinib treatment failure (TTF) and overall survival (OS). RESULTS Compared with the NS group (n = 52), patients in the S group (n = 38) had a higher proportion of primary tumor site involvement and lower tumor burden at FP. With a median follow-up duration of 31.0 months, patients in the S group had significantly better TTF and OS than patients in the NS group (median TTF: 24.2 vs. 6.5 months, p < .01; median OS: 53.2 vs. 35.1 months, p = .009). Multivariate analysis showed that S group independently demonstrated better TTF (hazard ratio [HR], 0.29; p < .01) and OS (HR, 0.47; p = .01). Even after applying inverse probability of treatment-weighting adjustments, S group demonstrated significantly better TTF (HR, 0.36; p < .01) and OS (HR, 0.58; p = .049). CONCLUSION Our results suggested that resection following FP with standard doses of imatinib in patients with advanced GIST provides additional benefits over imatinib dose escalation alone. IMPLICATIONS FOR PRACTICE This is the first study to compare the clinical outcomes of resection plus imatinib dose escalation or maintenance (S group) with imatinib dose escalation alone (NS group) in patients with advanced gastrointestinal stromal tumor (GIST) following focal progression (FP) with standard doses of imatinib. These findings suggest that resection can be safely performed following FP, and the addition of surgical resection provides further clinical benefit over imatinib dose escalation alone. Based on these results, the authors recommend resection following FP in patients with advanced GIST provided that an experienced multidisciplinary team is involved in the patient's treatment.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs) are mesenchymal tumors most often caused by activating mutations of the KIT gene. KIT tyrosine kinase inhibitors provide targeted therapy for the underlying genetic mutation, and adjuvant therapy is indicated for patients who are at significant risk of relapse following GIST resection. This is a report of the safety of imatinib in patients with GIST in the adjuvant setting in an expanded access program. METHODS In this multicenter, open-label, single-arm trial, safety was assessed based on the frequency of adverse events (AEs). RESULTS Three hundred patients were treated and analyzed; 40 patients discontinued treatment. Median overall exposure during the program was 181 days (range 9-420); most patients (260/300 treated) completed the study. Six patients had disease recurrence, 4 of whom discontinued. In line with previously published reports, the most frequent AEs were nausea, diarrhea, and periorbital edema. The AEs were mild to moderate in most cases (76%). CONCLUSIONS These findings are in agreement with the known safety profile of imatinib and confirm the safety of imatinib at 400 mg/day in the adjuvant setting. The incidence of severe AEs was low.

Abstract
The tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) imatinib has radically changed the natural history of KIT-driven gastrointestinal stromal tumours (GISTs). Approved second-line and third-line medical therapies are represented by the TKIs sunitinib and regorafenib, respectively. While imatinib remains the cardinal drug for patients with GISTs, novel therapies are being developed and clinically tested to overcome the mechanisms of resistance after treatments with the approved TKI, or to treat subsets of GISTs driven by rarer molecular events. Here, we review the therapy of GISTs, with a particular focus on the newest drugs in advanced phases of clinical testing that might soon change the current therapeutic algorithm.

Abstract
AIM The majority of available data on the clinical efficacy of sunitinib in patients with imatinib-resistant or -intolerant gastrointestinal stromal tumours (GISTs) are from studies of western populations. We investigated the clinical outcomes of imatinib dose escalation versus sunitinib in first-line imatinib-failure Asian GIST patients to further guide clinical treatment. METHODS Patients received imatinib dose escalation and a shift to sunitinib (Group A) or a direct shift to sunitinib (Group B). The objective tumour response was assessed according to Choi's criteria. Progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) were calculated. The relationship between genetic mutation and survival was analysed. RESULTS In total, 40 patients who fulfilled the inclusion criteria were recruited. The differences in survival between Group A and Group B were not significant for PFS (p = .776) or OS (p = .219). For patients with KIT exon 11 mutation, a trend towards a better PFS was found in Group B (p = .122), OS of Group B was better than Group A (p = .013). The median PFS and OS of sunitinib treatment were 8 and 24 months, respectively, and a clinical benefit was observed in 80%. Patients with KIT exon 11 mutations had better PFS compared to those with KIT exon 9 mutations or wild-type GISTs (p = .017, p = .040, respectively). CONCLUSIONS Both imatinib dose escalation and sunitinib were optional in Asian patients after failure of first-line imatinib, and patients with KIT exon 11 mutation benefited more from a direct shift to sunitinib.

Abstract
Desmoid-type fibromatosis (DF) is a rare monoclonal fibroblastic proliferation that is characterized by locally infiltrative but rarely metastatic lesions. Tyrosine kinase and γ-secretase inhibitors are primarily used in the targeted therapy of DF. The use of these drugs, however, is mainly based on the recommendations of retrospective studies with small sample sizes. Previous studies that focused on the mechanism, efficacy, and safety of targeted therapy for DF were reviewed to provide references for clinical applications and research. The efficacy and safety of targeted therapy were compared with those of other systemic therapy options. Targeted therapy does not provide considerable advantages in efficacy and safety over other medical treatments and is usually applied after the failure of antihormonal therapies, nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, and chemotherapy. Further studies are required to explore the mechanism, indications, and appropriate drug dosage of the targeted therapy of DF.

Abstract
The long‐term effects of tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs), including imatinib, and surgical intervention on advanced gastrointestinal stromal tumor (GIST) were evaluated. All 379 patients had metastatic or recurrent GIST and started 400 mg/d imatinib at the Asan Medical Center in periods 1 and 2 [2001‐2007 (33.2%) and 2008‐2014 (66.8%), respectively]. Men constituted 60.4%; median patient age and tumor size at the initiation of imatinib were 58.6 (14.6‐85.5) years and 51 (0‐324) mm, respectively, without differences between periods except for older age and less preimatinib surgery in period 2. Response and disease control rates with imatinib in measurable GIST were 63.1% and 94.3%, respectively, without differences between periods. More patients in period 2 underwent surgical resection for TKI‐responsive diseases within the first 2 years (24.9%, P = 0.006). With a median follow‐up of 6.1 years (2.5‐16.0) in survivors, median progression‐free survival (PFS) was 5.4 years [95% confidence interval (CI), 4.0‐6.9]. Subsequent sunitinib (P = 0.066) and regorafenib (P = 0.003) were more commonly administered in period 2. Median overall survival (OS) was 8.8 years (95% CI, 7.8‐9.7). PFS with imatinib (P = 0.002) and OS (P = 0.019) were significantly longer in period 2. Young age, smaller tumor size at the initiation of imatinib, KIT exon 11 mutation, surgical intervention, and period 2 were favorable factors for PFS and OS. Patients with advanced GIST showed better prognosis with the optimal use of imatinib, along with active surgical intervention and more common use of subsequent TKIs in period 2.

Chinese consensus on management of tyrosine kinase inhibitor-associated side effects in gastrointestinal stromal tumors. World J Gastroenterol 2018; 24:5189-5202. [PMID: 30581268 PMCID: PMC6295840 DOI: 10.3748/wjg.v24.i46.5189] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.9] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/23/2018] [Revised: 11/04/2018] [Accepted: 11/07/2018] [Indexed: 02/06/2023] Open
Abstract
Tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) have improved the overall survival of patients with gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs), but their side effects can impact dose intensity and, consequently, the clinical benefit. To date, no guideline or consensus has been published on the TKI-associated adverse reactions. Therefore, the Chinese Society of Surgeons for Gastrointestinal Stromal Tumor of the Chinese Medical Doctor Association organized an expert panel discussion involving representatives from gastrointestinal surgery, medical oncology, cardiology, dermatology, nephrology, endocrinology, and ophthalmology to consider the systemic clinical symptoms, molecular and cellular mechanisms, and treatment recommendations of GISTs. Here, we present the resultant evidence- and experience-based consensus to guide the management of TKI-associated side events in clinical practice.

Abstract
OPINION STATEMENT Small bower cancer is a rare disease, despite its incidence is increasing in the last decade. Both benign and malignant tumors can arise from the small intestine. The main histological cancer types are adenocarcinomas, neuroendocrine tumors, sarcomas, gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs), and lymphomas. Due to the rarity of these malignances, all the currently available data are based on small studies or retrospective series, although recent breakthroughs are redirecting our approach to these patients. Immunotherapy for small bowel adenocarcinomas, several multikinase inhibitors in resistant GIST patients, as well as everolimus and 177Lu-DOTATATE in neuroendocrine tumors are only few of the novel therapeutic options that have changed, or may change in the future, the therapeutic landscape of these rare cancers. Larger and more powerful studies on the molecular profile of these tumors may lead to a better design of clinical trials, which eventually would provide our patients with more efficacious treatments to improve both overall survival and quality of life.

Abstract
Gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs) are the most common mesenchymal tumors of the gastrointestinal tract. With the considerable research and application of molecular-targeted therapy for GISTs in the last two decades, GISTs have become a model of multidisciplinary oncological treatment. Although Western clinical guidelines are available for GISTs, such as those by the European Society of Medical Oncology (ESMO), the clinical situations in China are different from those in European countries. There are distinct differences between the clinical practice, diagnostic methods, surgical approach, and availability of new targeted agents in China and those in Europe. This review summarizes the Chinese GIST consensus guidelines compared to the European ones, which may provide an optimal approach to the diagnosis and management of GIST patients.

Abstract
While the treatment of gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs) has been revolutionized by the application of targeted tyrosine kinase inhibitors capable of inhibiting KIT-driven proliferation, diverse mutations to this kinase drive resistance to established therapies. Here we describe the identification of potent pan-KIT mutant kinase inhibitors that can be dosed without being limited by the tolerability issues seen with multitargeted agents. This effort focused on identification and optimization of an existing kinase scaffold through the use of structure-based design. Starting from a series of previously reported phenoxyquinazoline and quinoline based inhibitors of the tyrosine kinase PDGFRα, potency against a diverse panel of mutant KIT driven Ba/F3 cell lines was optimized, with a particular focus on reducing activity against a KDR driven cell model in order to limit the potential for hypertension commonly seen in second and third line GIST therapies. AZD3229 demonstrates potent single digit nM growth inhibition across a broad cell panel, with good margin to KDR-driven effects. Selectivity over KDR can be rationalized predominantly by the interaction of water molecules with the protein and ligand in the active site, and its kinome selectivity is similar to the best of the approved GIST agents. This compound demonstrates excellent cross-species pharmacokinetics, shows strong pharmacodynamic inhibition of target, and is active in several in vivo models of GIST.

Abstract
Aim: To determine whether imatinib adjuvant treatment improved recurrence-free survival (RFS) in gastrointestinal stromal tumor (GIST) with intermediate risk. Materials & methods: Patients who had undergone complete tumor resection with intermediate risk were enrolled. Results: A total of 99 patients received imatinib adjuvant therapy and 93 patients only received observation. The RFS in patients who received adjuvant therapy was superior to RFS in control group (p = 0.004). GIST with location of intestine or rectum and GIST with exon 11 deletion mutation had longer RFS. Conclusion: Adjuvant imatinib improves RFS of GIST with intermediate risk of recurrence, particularly in GIST with intestinal and rectal location or c-kit gene exon 11 deletion mutation.

Abstract
Gastrointestinal stromal tumours (GISTs) represent a very exciting tumour entity for the medical oncologist. There has been extensive clinical and preclinical research dissecting the natural behaviour, molecular landscape and therapeutic responsiveness of this rare mesenchymal tumour. Various molecular subtypes of GIST have a differing prognostic and predictive relevance in the state of the art management of the disease. Emerging mature clinical trial data gathered over the last one and half decade provided substantial molecular profiling information in understanding the success and eventual failure of treatment. In our review of the most relevant literature we aim to guide the clinician in tailoring neoadjuvant, adjuvant and palliative treatment of GIST alongside the different, now well established molecular subgroups of GISTs.

Abstract
We describe an approach to inhibit chemotherapy-induced myelosuppression. We found that short-term exposure of mice to the FLT3 inhibitor quizartinib induced the transient quiescence of multipotent progenitors (MPPs). This property of quizartinib conferred marked protection to MPPs in mice receiving fluorouracil or gemcitabine. The protection resulted in the rapid recovery of bone marrow and blood cellularity, thus preventing otherwise lethal myelosuppression. A treatment strategy involving quizartinib priming that protected wild-type bone marrow progenitors, but not leukemic cells, from fluorouracil provided a more effective treatment than conventional induction therapy in mouse models of acute myeloid leukemia. This strategy has the potential to be extended for use in other cancers where FLT3 inhibition does not adversely affect the effectiveness of chemotherapy. Thus, the addition of quizartinib to cancer treatment regimens could markedly improve cancer patient survival and quality of life.

Abstract
The role of palliative surgery is controversial in advanced gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GIST) after tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) therapy.We evaluated safety and clinical outcomes in a single institution series of advanced GIST patients from January 2002 to December 2008.One hundred and fifty-six patients had been recruited, including 87 patients underwent surgical resection and 69 patients kept on TKIs treatment. Four patients had major surgical complications. Median follow-up was 38.3 months, the overall survival (OS) and progression-free survival (PFS) of the patients in surgical group were longer than the nonsurgical group, PFS: 46.1 versus 33.8 months (P < .01), OS: 54.8 versus 40.4 months. In the subgroup analysis for the patients received surgery, the median PFS for patients with progression disease, stable disease, and partial response was 33.3, 51.5, and 83.0 months, respectively (P < .01). Median OS was 68.0 months in those with only liver or peritoneal metastases, and 45.3 months in those with both metastases. Median PFS of patients underwent R0/R1 resection was 73.6 months compared with 35.8 months in R2 resection patients (P < .01).Patients with advanced GISTs have prolonged OS after debulking procedures. Surgery for patients who have responsive disease after TKIs treatment should be considered.

Abstract
Background Gastrointestinal stromal tumours (GIST) are rarely encountered mesenchymal tumours of the gastrointestinal tract (1.5 people per 100,000/year) that are even more rarely seen in paediatric patients (1–2% of all cases). The standard treatment for advanced adult GIST is imatinib with sunitinib as a second-line option. Although the efficacy and tolerability of sunitinib in adults with GIST has been established, little is known of the profile of sunitinib in paediatric/young adult patients with GIST given the rarity of this disease. Methods Paediatric/young adult patients aged up to 21 years with diagnosis of GIST who were treated with sunitinib were identified from retrospective records from three centres in Europe and the US. Most patients commenced sunitinib in a 6-week cycle, however, dosing could be reduced, delayed, changed to (or initiated with) a continuous schedule. Objective response (Response Evaluation Criteria In Solid Tumours [RECIST]) and adverse events were recorded. Results We identified 9 paediatric/young adult patients (aged 11–21 years) with GIST who were treated with sunitinib de novo (n = 1) or following failure of imatinib (n = 8). Progressive disease was previously documented for all patients including 7 patients during imatinib therapy. Baseline patient and tumour profile characteristics showed a distinct profile (notably all were wild-type KIT/PDGFR) compared to that established for adults. Sunitinib treatment was associated with a best response of stable disease for 7 patients, with disease stabilisation lasting from 1 month to >73 months and a median progression free survival time of 15 months. There was some evidence of better disease control for sunitinib when compared to prior imatinib. Most adverse events with sunitinib were manageable and all were consistent with the known profile of the agent. Conclusion The ability to draw firm conclusions from this case series is limited by the small number of patients and the use of retrospective data which is largely reflective of the rarity of this condition. However, our findings provide initial evidence of clinical benefit and a generally manageable toxicity profile for sunitinib when administered to paediatric/young adult patients with GIST, most of whom had documented progressive disease during prior imatinib treatment.

Abstract
Aim: To assess the efficacy of second-line sunitinib therapy in gastrointestinal stromal tumor patients with different exon 11 mutation genotypes. Patients & methods: Thirty eight of the 75 patients received imatinib (IM) dose escalation followed by sunitinib (IM escalation group), while 37 were switched to sunitinib directly after the failure of first-line IM treatment (sunitinib group). Progression-free survival and overall survival were compared. Results: The median progression-free survival in the sunitinib group was significantly longer than in the IM escalation group (14 vs 4 months; p < 0.001), so was in patients with exon 11 deletions (16 vs 3 months; p < 0.001). Conclusion: Patients who have an exon 11 deletion mutation are more likely to benefit from switching to sunitinib directly than from IM dose escalation.

Abstract
Abstract
Introduction
Sunitinib is approved in China for treatment of gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GIST), after disease progression on, or intolerance to, imatinib. However, available data from prospective clinical trials on its efficacy and safety in Chinese patients is limited. Our objective is to determine the efficacy and safety of sunitinib in Chinese patients with imatinib-resistant/intolerant GIST.
Methods
An open-label, single-arm, multicenter, phase IV study was performed in Chinese patients with imatinib-resistant/intolerant GIST. Sunitinib was administered orally in 6-week cycles of 4 weeks on-treatment (50 mg once daily) and 2 weeks off-treatment. The primary endpoint was progression-free survival (PFS). Tumors were assessed every 6 weeks for the first 24 weeks and every 12 weeks thereafter. Responses were evaluated according to Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) version 1.0.
Results
A total of 60 patients were enrolled, of whom 59 were treated with sunitinib. All patients were Asian, and mean age was 55.1 years. Median PFS was 46.4 weeks (95% CI 33.6–53.1). An objective response (complete or partial) was observed in 11/58 (19%) patients. Median overall survival was 111.3 weeks (95% CI 75.4–167.1), median time to tumor progression was 47.3 weeks (95% CI 34.1–59.3), and median time to tumor response was 22.6 weeks (95% CI 10.4–57.3). The most common adverse events included leukopenia, fatigue, hand-foot syndrome, and neutropenia. No new safety concerns were identified.
Conclusions
This study confirms that sunitinib is active and well tolerated in Chinese patients with imatinib-resistant/intolerant GIST.

Imatinib dose escalation versus sunitinib as a second-line treatment against advanced gastrointestinal stromal tumors: A nationwide population-based cohort study. Oncotarget 2017; 8:71128-71137. [PMID: 29050348 PMCID: PMC5642623 DOI: 10.18632/oncotarget.16795] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.9] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/12/2017] [Accepted: 03/22/2017] [Indexed: 11/25/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Although treatment with imatinib in advanced gastrointestinal stromal tumor (GIST) patients has led to significant clinical benefits, the disease will eventually progress due to imatinib resistance. Treatment options after failure of first-line imatinib include imatinib dose escalation or shifting to sunitinib. However, there is no large-scale study to compare the efficacy difference between these two treatment strategies or the role of surgery. RESULTS This study recruited 521 advanced GIST patients including 246, 125, and 150 placed in groups 1, 2, and 3, respectively. Groups 1 and 2 had significantly longer overall survival (OS) as compared with the group 3 (median 37.5 months versus 16.0 months; p < 0.0001). After adjusting for confounding variables, groups 1 and 2 had longer OS than group 3. A favorable survival trend was seen with surgery, although this benefit disappeared after adjusting for confounding factors. MATERIALS AND METHODS We conducted a nationwide population-based cohort study using data from the Taiwan National Health Insurance Research Database from July 2004 to December 2010. Advanced GIST patients who no longer responded to first-line imatinib were stratified into three groups: imatinib dose escalation (group 1); imatinib dose escalation and a shift to sunitinib (group 2); a direct shift to sunitinib (group 3). The therapeutic success of the three treatment regimens and the effect of surgery were evaluated by overall survival. CONCLUSIONS For advanced GIST patients who failed first-line imatinib treatment, imatinib dose escalation confers significantly longer OS compared to a direct switch to sunitinib. Surgery does not provide survival benefits.

Abstract
Constitutive activating mutations in KIT and platelet-derived growth factor receptor α ( PDGFRα) are heavily involved in the pathobiology of gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs). This disease has served as an effective "proof-of-concept" model for targeting gain-of-function kinase mutations in cancer. This review discusses the current standard of care in terms of pharmacotherapy in the management of localized and metastatic GISTs.
