Objective To assess, in a multicentre phase II trial, the safety and efficacy of BEZ235, an oral pan-class I phosphoinositol-3-kinase (PI3K) and mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) complex1/2 inhibitor, in locally advanced or metastatic transitional cell carcinoma (TCC) after failure of platinum-based therapy. Patients and Methods Patients with locally advanced or metastatic TCC progressing after platinum therapy were prospectively stratified by PI3K/Akt/mTOR pathway alterations, defined as PTEN loss and PIK3CA mutation. All patients received BEZ235 until progressive disease or unacceptable toxicity. The primary endpoint was the progression-free survival (PFS) rate at 16 weeks. This study was, however, closed prematurely because BEZ235 was withdrawn from further development. Results A total of 20 patients (18 without and two with PI3K/Akt/mTOR alterations) were enrolled and received BEZ235. One partial response (5%) and two cases of stable disease (10%) were observed, all in patients without PI3K/mTOR pathway alterations. The PFS rate at 8 and 16 weeks was 15 and 10%, respectively; the median (range) PFS was 62 (38-588) days (95% confidence interval [CI] 53-110); and the median (range) overall survival was 127 (41-734) days (95% CI 58-309). Among the 90% of patients who experienced drug-related adverse events of any grade, 50% experienced grade 3-4 adverse events, including stomatitis (15%), fatigue (5%), nausea (5%), diarrhoea (5%), renal failure (5%), cutaneous rash (5%), hepatotoxicity (5%) and hypertension (5%). Conclusion BEZ235 showed modest clinical activity and an unfavourable toxicity profile in patients with advanced and pretreated TCC; however, a minority of patients experienced a clinical benefit, suggesting that a complete blockade of the PI3K/mTOR axis could improve outcome in some specific patients. Furthermore, this study showed that molecular stratification of patients for personalized medicine before treatment is feasible.
