BackgroundDual inhibition of transforming growth factor beta (TGF-β) signaling and PD-1 is a promising strategy to reverse immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment and poor responses to immunotherapy. Based on preliminary clinical data with vactosertib, a highly selective and potent inhibitor of TGF-β receptor type 1, in combination with pembrolizumab, this study aimed to explore a biomarker with predictive value for this regimen in metastatic microsatellite stable (MSS) colorectal cancer (CRC).MethodsTumor biopsy samples were obtained from 24 CRC patients at baseline and cycle 2 in the ongoing MP-VAC-204 study and analyzed by RNAseq and DNAseq. Consensus molecular subtype (CMS), TGF-β responsive gene signatures, IFN-γ signatures, and tumor mutation burden (TMB) were analyzed. Clinically benefited patients were defined by those who achieved objective response assessed by RECIST v1.1/iRECIST or progression free survival more than 24 weeks. Vactosertib responsive gene signature (VRGS) that showed significantly different expression among previously identified TGF-β responsive gene signature and IFN-γ signature in responders than in non-responders was identified and VRGS score was calculated by a mean value of VRGS filtered-in gene expressions divided by 6 house-keeping gene expressions.ResultsAs of July 1, 2020, of the total evaluable 24 patients, 71% were CMS4 subtype and 33% were with high TMB (≥10 mut/Mb). Clinical benefit rate was 33.3% including 3 PR and 1 iPR patients. No significant associations in response rate were observed with CMS subtypes or TMB status. VRGS score was significantly enriched in responders than in non-responders (P value = 0.006; AUC = 0.836). A preliminary cut-off value of 2.179 resulted in 94% specificity and 75% sensitivity with 85.7% patients correctly classifying as a responder. After treatment of vactosertib plus pembrolizumab, TGF-β-related VRGS was significantly decreased and the extent of decrease was greater in responders, compared to non-responders.Ethics ApprovalThe study was approved by Ethics Board of Asan Medical Center, Yonsei University College of Medicine, Samsung Medical Center, and Seoul National University Bundang Hospital with approval number 2018-1215, 4-2018-0728, SMC 2018-07-146-006, and B-1808/487-003, respectively.ConclusionsDevelopment of VRGS as a predictive biomarker for this combination treatment with vactosertib and pembrolizumab is ongoing and its potential clinical utility for patient selection will be explored.Trial RegistrationNCT03724851
