Osteosarcoma with cell-cycle and fibroblast growth factor genomic alterations: case report of Molecular Tumor Board combination strategy resulting in long-term exceptional response

Abstract There is a paucity of information about molecularly driven therapy in osteosarcomas. We report a 31-year-old woman with chemotherapy–refractory metastatic osteosarcoma who was successfully treated with the combination of palbociclib (CDK4/6 inhibitor) and lenvatinib (multikinase FGFR inhibi...

description Abstract There is a paucity of information about molecularly driven therapy in osteosarcomas. We report a 31-year-old woman with chemotherapy–refractory metastatic osteosarcoma who was successfully treated with the combination of palbociclib (CDK4/6 inhibitor) and lenvatinib (multikinase FGFR inhibitor), selected based on next generation sequencing that showed CDK4 and CCND2 amplifications (upregulates CDK4/6), and FGF6 (ligand for FGFR1,2 and 4), FGF23 (ligand for FGFR1,2,3, and 4) and FRS2 (adaptor protein for FGFR signaling) amplifications. The patient’s tumor showed 68% reduction in positron emission tomography (PET) avidity, lasting 31 months after therapy initiation, when a solitary recurrence occurred, was resected, and treatment continued. The patient remains on matched targeted therapy at 51 + months from the start of the combination. Treatment was given at reduced dosing (lenvatinib 10 mg oral daily (approved dose = 24 mg daily)) and palbociclib 75 mg oral daily, one week on and one week off (approved dose = 125 mg oral daily, three weeks on/one week off) and is tolerated well. Therefore, co-targeting the aberrant cyclin and FGFR pathways resulted in long-term exceptional response in a patient with refractory advanced osteosarcoma.
