Abstract LB127: VAL-083 in patients with recurrent glioblastoma treated under expanded access program
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Abstract Current standard-of-care for glioblastoma (GBM) includes surgery followed by concurrent therapy with radiation and temozolomide (TMZ) and adjuvant TMZ. Almost all GBM patients experience recurrent/progressive disease despite upfront standard of care treatment, with a median overall survival of 3-9 mo. after recurrence. There are limited treatment options available upon progression of disease which may include potential participation in clinical trials. However, patients may not meet the strictly defined entry criteria to participate in these clinical trials. VAL-083 is a first-in-class bifunctional alkylating agent that acts independent of O6-methylguanine-DNA-methyltransferase (MGMT) methylation status. Under an Expanded Access (EA) program, we have treated 24 patients with recurrent GBM, who were not eligible to participate in clinical trials with VAL-083. Four (4/24; 17%) patients had leptomeningeal disease (LMD) at time of enrolment. While safety data was assessed for all patients, those without LMD (20 patients) were evaluated for efficacy. All patients evaluated for efficacy received chemoradiation with TMZ, and the mean number of adjuvant TMZ cycles was 5 (± 6.2). The median time from last progression to start of VAL-083 was 0.65 mo. (95%CI: 0.32-1.55) and median KPS was 80 (25-75P: 70-90). Eight (8/20; 40%) patients had 2 or more prior recurrences, 9/20 (45%) patients had multifocal disease, and 5/20 (25%) had prior lomustine. Eighteen (18/20; 90%) patients had unmethylated promoter status for MGMT and 18/20 (90%) were IDH wild type. All patients had at least 1 mutation, with 11/20 (55%) having 5 or more mutations, and one patient had hypermutator phenotype with MSH6 mutation. The most common mutations were, TERT 11/20 (55%), PTEN 9/20 (45%), and TP53 6/20 (30%). All patients started treatment with VAL-083 at 30 mg/m2 administered on 3 consecutive days every 21 days. Seven patients received bevacizumab concurrently with VAL-083. VAL-083 was well tolerated and the main adverse events were consistent with prior experience, i.e., thrombocytopenia and neutropenia. Eight (8/24; 33%) patients had a dose reduction, 7 of which were due to thrombocytopenia, and 1 due to neutropenia. Five patients with thrombocytopenia had prior lomustine. As of cut-off date (05 Jan, 2023), median progression free survival (mPFS) and median overall survival (mOS) from last disease progression was 5.9 mo (95%CI: 3.9-7.9) and 9.4 mo (95%CI: 3.0-14.3), respectively. In patients without multifocal disease mOS was even longer, 14.3 mo (95%CI: 3.9-14.3). Use of VAL-083 in this expanded access study showed benefit in the treatment of recurrent GBM patients even those who have had multiple recurrences and were not candidates for the treatment through clinical trial. Additional safety and efficacy measures will be presented at the meeting.Clincialtrials.gov Identifier: NCT03138629.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
