DNA damage repair (DDR) genes, involved in homologous recombination or nucleotide excision repair, had been previously described as biomarkers of trabectedin resistance or sensitivity, respectively. The majority of these studies only focused on specific factors (ERCC1, ERCC5, and BRCA1) and did not evaluate several other DDR-related genes that could have a relevant role for trabectedin efficacy. In this retrospective translational study, 118 genes involved in DDR were evaluated to determine, by transcriptomics, a predictive gene signature of trabectedin efficacy. A six-gene predictive signature of trabectedin efficacy was built in a series of 139 tumor samples from patients with advanced STS. Patients in the high-risk gene signature group showed a significantly worse progression-free survival compared with patients in the low-risk group (2.1 vs 6.0 months, respectively). Differential gene expression analysis defined new potential predictive biomarkers of trabectedin sensitivity (PARP3 and CCNH) or resistance (DNAJB11 and PARP1). Our study identified a new gene signature that significantly predicts patients with higher probability to respond to treatment with trabectedin. Targeting some genes of this signature emerges as a potential strategy to enhance trabectedin efficacy.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">12</style></issue><custom1><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/33983674?dopt=Abstract</style></custom1></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Martin-Broto, Javier</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Hindi, Nadia</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Grignani, Giovanni</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Martinez-Trufero, Javier</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Redondo, Andres</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Valverde, Claudia</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Stacchiotti, Silvia</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Lopez-Pousa, Antonio</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">D'Ambrosio, Lorenzo</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Gutierrez, Antonio</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Perez-Vega, Herminia</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Encinas-Tobajas, Victor</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">de Alava, Enrique</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Collini, Paola</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Peña-Chilet, Maria</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Dopazo, Joaquin</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Carrasco-Garcia, Irene</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Lopez-Alvarez, Maria</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Moura, David S</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Lopez-Martin, Jose A</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Nivolumab and sunitinib combination in advanced soft tissue sarcomas: a multicenter, single-arm, phase Ib/II trial.</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">J Immunother Cancer</style></secondary-title><alt-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">J Immunother Cancer</style></alt-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Adult</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Aged</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Antineoplastic Agents, Immunological</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Female</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Humans</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Male</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Middle Aged</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Nivolumab</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Sarcoma</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Sunitinib</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Young Adult</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2020</style></year><pub-dates><date><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2020 11</style></date></pub-dates></dates><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">8</style></volume><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;BACKGROUND: &lt;/b&gt;Sarcomas exhibit low expression of factors related to immune response, which could explain the modest activity of PD-1 inhibitors. A potential strategy to convert a cold into an inflamed microenvironment lies on a combination therapy. As tumor angiogenesis promotes immunosuppression, we designed a phase Ib/II trial to test the double inhibition of angiogenesis (sunitinib) and PD-1/PD-L1 axis (nivolumab).&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;METHODS: &lt;/b&gt;This single-arm, phase Ib/II trial enrolled adult patients with selected subtypes of sarcoma. Phase Ib established two dose levels: level 0 with sunitinib 37.5 mg daily from day 1, plus nivolumab 3 mg/kg intravenously on day 15, and then every 2 weeks; and level -1 with sunitinib 37.5 mg on the first 14 days (induction) and then 25 mg per day plus nivolumab on the same schedule. The primary endpoint was to determine the recommended dose for phase II (phase I) and the 6-month progression-free survival rate, according to Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors 1.1 (phase II).&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;RESULTS: &lt;/b&gt;From May 2017 to April 2019, 68 patients were enrolled: 16 in phase Ib and 52 in phase II. The recommended dose of sunitinib for phase II was 37.5 mg as induction and then 25 mg in combination with nivolumab. After a median follow-up of 17 months (4-26), the 6-month progression-free survival rate was 48% (95% CI 41% to 55%). The most common grade 3-4 adverse events included transaminitis (17.3%) and neutropenia (11.5%).&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;CONCLUSIONS: &lt;/b&gt;Sunitinib plus nivolumab is an active scheme with manageable toxicity in the treatment of selected patients with advanced soft tissue sarcoma, with almost half of patients free of progression at 6 months.
