We report results from a phase II study assessing the efficacy of the WEE1 inhibitor adavosertib with cisplatin in metastatic triple-negative breast cancer (mTNBC). Patients with mTNBC treated with 0–1 prior lines of chemotherapy received cisplatin 75 mg/m2 IV followed 21 days later by cisplatin plus adavosertib 200 mg oral twice daily for 5 doses every 21 days. The study had 90% power to detect the difference between null (20%) and alternative (40%) objective response rates (ORRs) with a one-sided type I error of 0.1: an ORR >30% was predefined as making the regimen worthy of further study. RNA sequencing and multiplex cyclic immunofluorescence on pre- and post-adavosertib tumor biopsies, as well as targeted next-generation sequencing on archival tissue, were correlated with clinical benefit, defined as stable disease ≥6 months or complete or partial response. 34 patients initiated protocol therapy; median age was 56 years, 2 patients (6%) had BRCA2 mutations, and 14 (41%) had one prior chemotherapy. ORR was 26% (95%CI 13–44), and median progression-free survival was 4.9 months (95%CI 2.3–5.7). Treatment-related grade 3–5 adverse events occurred in 53% of patients, most commonly diarrhea in 21%. One death occurred due to sepsis, possibly related to study therapy. Tumors from patients with clinical benefit demonstrated enriched immune gene expression and T cell infiltration. Among patients with mTNBC treated with 0–1 prior lines, adavosertib combined with cisplatin missed the prespecified ORR cutoff of >30%. The finding of immune-infiltrated tumors in patients with clinical benefit warrants validation. This phase II clinical trial evaluated whether the WEE1 inhibitor adavosertib combined with cisplatin improved clinical outcomes for patients with metastatic triple-negative breast cancer (mTNBC) and investigated molecular correlates of response to this therapy. A total of 34 patients were treated with adavosertib and cisplatin as first or second-line therapy for mTNBC. The endpoint was not met but objective response rate was 26% and median progression-free survival was 4.9 months. Transcriptomic and immunofluorescence analyses revealed that adavosertib treatment and clinical benefit may correlate with intratumoral immune gene expression and T cell infiltration. These findings suggest that adavosertib may augment antitumor immunity and warrant validation in future studies, including an ongoing trial of adavosertib with the PD-L1 inhibitor durvalumab.
