<b><i>Introduction:</i></b> Real-world management of patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is crucially challenging in the current rapidly evolving clinical environment which includes the need for respecting patient preferences and autonomy. In this context, regional/national treatment guidelines nuanced to local demographics have increasing importance in guiding disease management. We report here real-world data on clinical outcomes in HCC from a validation of the Consensus Guidelines for HCC at the National Cancer Centre Singapore (NCCS). <b><i>Method:</i></b> We evaluated the NCCS guidelines using prospectively collected real-world data, comparing the efficacy of treatment received using overall survival (OS) and progression-free survival (PFS). Treatment outcomes were also independently evaluated against 2 external sets of guidelines, the Barcelona Clinic Liver Cancer (BCLC) and Hong Kong Liver Cancer (HKLC). <b><i>Results:</i></b> Overall treatment compliance to the NCCS guidelines was 79.2%. Superior median OS was observed in patients receiving treatment compliant with NCCS guidelines for early (nonestimable vs. 23.5 months <i>p</i> &#x3c; 0.0001), locally advanced (28.1 vs. 22.2 months <i>p</i> = 0.0216) and locally advanced with macrovascular invasion (10.3 vs. 3.3 months <i>p</i> = 0.0013) but not for metastatic HCC (8.1 vs. 6.8 months <i>p</i> = 0.6300), but PFS was similar. Better clinical outcomes were seen in BCLC C patients who received treatment compliant with NCCS guidelines than in patients with treatment only allowed by BCLC guidelines (median OS 14.2 vs. 7.4 months <i>p</i> = 0.0002; median PFS 6.1 vs. 4.0 months <i>p</i> = 0.0286). Clinical outcomes were, however, similar for patients across all HKLC stages receiving NCCS-recommended treatment regardless of whether their treatment was allowed by HKLC. <b><i>Conclusion:</i></b> The high overall compliance rate and satisfactory clinical outcomes of patients managed according to the NCCS guidelines confirm its validity. This validation using real-world data considers patient and treating clinician preferences, thus providing a realistic analysis of the usefulness of the NCCS guidelines when applied in the clinics.

TPS3629 Background: Improvements in outcomes for locally advanced rectal cancer (LARC) have plateaued due to an inability to consistently deliver adjuvant therapy (tx) and thus far ineffective novel therapies. Systematic testing of new chemotherapy and radiation sensitizers are needed to advance treatment outcomes. This randomized phase II modular clinical trial platform utilizes Total Neoadjuvant Therapy (TNT) with parallel experimental arms in LARC. The experimental arms are not intended for direct comparison, but to test a variety of sensitizers or hypotheses in a consistent and relatively homogenous high-risk patient (pt) population with correlative biomarkers. Success of any given experimental arm will be determined by achievement of pathologic endpoints compared to a control arm. Methods: This NCTN multi-arm randomized phase II trial serves as a modular platform to assess novel sensitizers to neoadjuvant chemotherapy and/or chemoradiotherapy (chemoRT) in LARC. Eligibility includes LARC as defined by any ONE of the following criteria: distal location (cT3-4 ≤5cm from the anal verge, any N); bulky (any cT4 or tumor within 3mm of the mesorectal fascia); high risk for metastatic disease (cN2); or not a candidate for sphincter-sparing surgical resection. After randomization, pts receive neoadjuvant FOLFOX x 4mo → chemoRT (capecitabine with 50.4Gy) → surgical resection 8-12 wks later. Based on promising phase I results, the first experimental arm will assess the activity of veliparib added to standard chemoRT (capecitabine + RT). Primary endpoint is to demonstrate improvement in Neoadjuvant Rectal Cancer (NAR) score for the experimental arm vs control representing 20% relative risk reduction in DFS HR and 3-4% absolute OS improvement. Secondary endpoints include comparisons of OS, DFS, toxicity, pCR, cCR, tx completion, negative surgical margins, sphincter preservation, sphincter function including quality of life, and exploratory assessments of molecular and radiographic predictors of response and distant failure. Target accrual is 79 evaluable pts per arm with additional arms added through rolling protocol amendments. NCT02921256. Support: U10 CA-180868, -20, 21, -22; UG-189867; AbbVie. Clinical trial information: NCT02921256.

3509 Background: Clinical response following neoadjuvant therapy is paramount to identifying locally advanced rectal cancer (LARC) patients suitable for Watch and Wait (WW). A 3-tier schema was devised to stratify clinical response. Patients with a complete clinical response (cCR) are considered for WW, while those with an incomplete clinical response (iCR) are recommended for total mesorectal excision (TME). A near complete response (nCR) tier captures patients with significant, but not complete, response to be considered for WW. This schema’s efficacy has yet to be validated. We investigated survival and organ preservation (OP) rates based on this 3-tier clinical response assessment in patients with LARC who underwent total neoadjuvant therapy (TNT) in a prospective, multi-center clinical trial. Methods: Patients with MRI stage II and III rectal adenocarcinoma were randomized to either induction chemotherapy (FOLFOX or CAPEOX) followed by chemoradiation or chemoradiation followed by consolidation chemotherapy (FOLFOX or CAPEOX). At 8+/-4 weeks following TNT, response on digital rectal and endoscopic examinations was evaluated by the 3-tier schema. The date of this restaging clinical response assessment was used as time zero. The endpoints of rate of OP, disease-free survival (DFS), TME-free DFS, and overall survival (OS) were evaluated using the Kaplan-Meier method with differences analyzed by the log-rank test. Results: Clinical response assessments were available for 294 patients. The median time to assessment after neoadjuvant therapy was 7.9 weeks. Based on the 3-tier schema, 124 patients were categorized as cCR, 113 as nCR, and 57 as iCR. Baseline age, sex, average distance from the anal verge, clinical T classification, and clinical N classification were similar between the response groups. The table shows the 3-year rates of OP, DFS, TME-free DFS, and OS. The median follow-up was 2.36 years. Of the patients with a nCR, the 3-year TME rate was 48% compared with 21% in the cCR group. Conclusions: The 3-tier clinical response assessment has prognostic implications for OP and DFS in patients with LARC who underwent TNT. In patients with a nCR, more than half achieved OP at 3 years. This information should be utilized to counsel patients regarding their expected outcomes. Clinical trial information: NCT02008656. [Table: see text]
