Case reports suggest mTOR activation through mutations or deletions of TSC1 or TSC2 and activity of mTOR inhibitors in this disease. ABI-009 is an albumin-bound mTOR inhibitor with increased tumor uptake. The AMPECT trial is the first prospective study in malignant PEComa. Methods: Eligible patients (pts) with centrally confirmed PEComa receive ABI-009 (100 mg/m 2 IV, wkly, 2/3 wks) until progression or unacceptable toxicity. Primary endpoint: ORR by independent review (IR), assessed every 6 wks (RECIST v1.1). Secondary endpoints: duration of response (DOR), PFS6, PFS, and safety. Exploratory endpoints (EE): investigator-assessed (IA) outcomes and mutational status. Sample size: 30 efficacy-evaluable pts based on target ORR of 30% (primary analysis planned when all pts treated ≥6 mo). Results: EE and safety are reported (IR pending). As of Feb 12, 2019, enrollment is complete; 34 pts treated, 31 evaluable for efficacy, 42% (13/31) pts ongoing Rx. IA ORR is 42% PR (13/31, 95% CI: 24.5, 60.9), 35% SD (11/31), and 23% PD (7/31); 69% of PRs were reached at 1st restaging (wk 6); 69% PRs are ongoing, with 5 pts >1yr and 2 pt >2 yrs on Rx (all ongoing). Other IA outcomes: median DOR is not reached; PFS6 is 66%; median PFS is 8.9 mo (95% CI: 5.5, -). The most common (>30%) nonhematologic treatment-related AEs (TRAEs) of any grade: mucositis (65%), fatigue (53%), nausea/weight loss (35% each), diarrhea (32%); the most common (>15%) hematologic TRAEs: anemia (44%) and thrombocytopenia (18%). Pneumonitis (15%) was G1/G2. The most common (>10%) G3 TRAEs: mucositis (18%), anemia (12%); No grade ≥4 TRAEs. TSC1 or TSC2 mutations occurred in 5 and 9 (no overlap) of 25 pts with known mutational status, respectively. PR was seen in 100% (9/9) pts with TSC2 mutation, 20% (1/5) pts with TSC1 mutation, and 9% (1/11) pts without mutation in TSC1 or TSC2 , P < 0.0001 (2x3 Fisher exact test). PR was significantly higher in pts with TSC2 mutations vs pts without mutation in TSC1 or TSC2, P = 0.0001 (Fisher exact test). Disease control (PR+SD) was seen in 93% (13/14) pts with TSC1 or TSC2 mutations vs 55% (6/11) pts without mutation in TSC1 or TSC2 , P = NS. Conclusions: Preliminary IA outcomes showed that ABI-009 treatment of PEComa resulted in substantial and durable responses with manageable toxicities. TSC2 mutations were associated with IA response.
