Overview

Primary Objective:To evaluate the efficacy and safety of TIP (paclitaxel + ifosfamide + cisplatin) combined with nimotuzumab \& triprilimab as neoadjuvant treatment in locally advanced penile cancer.

Penile cancer is a rare malignant tumor, which often occurs in the inner plate of prepuce and glans. Squamous cell carcinoma is the most common pathological type. Lymph node metastasis is a crucial factor that leads to poor prognosis of penile cancer. The 5-year OS of penile cancer patients without lymph node metastasis is 90%. Still, it goes down sharply in patients with inguinal lymph node metastasis and pelvic lymph node metastasis, which is 50% and 0%, respectively. Using neoadjuvant chemotherapy to treat patients with locally advanced penile cancer (T4, any N stage, or any T stage, N3) may improve their prognosis. TIP (Paclitaxel + Ifosfamide + Cisplatin) regimen is the first line neoadjuvant treatment recommended by NCCN guidelines. Epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) plays a vital role in the development of penile cancer. It's also an important therapeutic target for penile cancer. PD-1 is an immune checkpoint molecule on the surface of T cells. In recent years, immune-checkpoint inhibitors targeting PD-1 have shown good efficacy in a variety of tumors. Some phase II / III clinical trials have shown that PD-1 inhibitors can improve the prognosis of patients with lung squamous cell carcinoma, head and neck squamous cell carcinoma and cervical cancer. Previous studies have found that PD-L1 is highly expressed in 40% - 60% of penile cancer, suggesting that penile cancer patients may benefit from immunotherapy. The management of penile cancer with lymph node metastasis is difficult, especially for N2-3 stage. This phase II study aim to explore an effective combination therapy for locally advanced penile cancer. 29 patients need to be enrolled.TIP \& nimotuzumab \& triprilimab will be administered per 21-day until surgery, evidence of disease progression or onset of unacceptable toxicity.

Outcomes

Primary Outcomes

Percentage of Participants With Pathologically Complete Response

Histopathologic assessment for patients undergoing surgical resection followed by 4 cycles of neoadjuvant treatment. Pathologically complete response is defined as the absence of noninvasive tumor residuals in inguinal lymph node and pelvic lymph node after neoadjuvant chemotherapy as assessed by American Joint Committee on Cancer (AJCC) staging version 8.0.

Time frame: 12 weeks

Secondary Outcomes

Objective Response Rate (ORR)

ORR is defined as the percentage of participants who achieved a complete response (CR) or partial response (PR) according to Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) version 1.1.

Time frame: 6 weeks

Progression Free Survival (PFS)

Progression free survival is defined as the time from the randomization to tumor progression or death due to any cause.

Time frame: 2 months

Overall Survival (OS)

Overall survival is defined as the time from randomization to death due to any cause.

Time frame: 6 months

Adverse events

Number of participants with treatment-related adverse events as assessed by National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (NCI-CTCAE) version 4.0.

Time frame: 2-months
