PURPOSE In advanced gastrointestinal stromal tumor (GIST), there is an unmet need for therapies that target both primary and secondary mutations of pathogenic KIT/PDGFRA oncoproteins. Ripretinib is a novel switch-control kinase inhibitor designed to inhibit a wide range of KIT and PDGFRA mutations. PATIENTS AND METHODS This first-in-human, to our knowledge, phase I study of ripretinib (ClinicalTrials.gov identifier: NCT02571036) included a dose-escalation phase and subsequent expansion phase at the recommended phase II dose (RP2D). Eligible patients included those with advanced GIST, intolerant to or experienced progression on ≥ 1 line of systemic therapy, and other advanced malignancies. Safety, dose-limiting toxicities (DLTs), maximum-tolerated dose (MTD), and preliminary antitumor activity were evaluated. RESULTS At data cutoff (August 31, 2019), 258 patients (n = 184 GIST) were enrolled, with 68 patients in the dose-escalation phase. Three DLTs were reported: grade 3 lipase increase (n = 2; 100 mg and 200 mg twice a day) and grade 4 increased creatine phosphokinase (n = 1; 150 mg once daily). MTD was not reached (maximum dose evaluated, 200 mg twice a day); 150 mg once daily was established as the RP2D. The most frequent (> 30%) treatment-emergent adverse events in patients with GIST receiving ripretinib 150 mg once daily (n = 142) were alopecia (n = 88 [62.0%]), fatigue (n = 78 [54.9%]), myalgia (n = 69 [48.6%]), nausea (n = 65 [45.8%]), palmar-plantar erythrodysesthesia (n = 62 [43.7%]), constipation (n = 56 [39.4%]), decreased appetite (n = 48 [33.8%]), and diarrhea (n = 47 [33.1%]). Objective response rate (confirmed) of 11.3% (n = 16/142) ranging from 7.2% (n = 6/83; fourth line or greater) to 19.4% (n = 6/31; second line) and median progression-free survival ranging from 5.5 months (fourth line or greater) to 10.7 months (second line), on the basis of investigator assessment, were observed. CONCLUSION Ripretinib is a well-tolerated, novel inhibitor of KIT and PDGFRA mutant kinases with promising activity in patients with refractory advanced GIST.

437 Background: Gastrointestinal stromal tumor (GIST) is a visceral sarcoma that arises from the gastrointestinal tract. Currently, imatinib (first-line) and sunitinib (second-line) are two reimbursed targeted therapies for GIST in Taiwan. This study aimed to evaluate the real world data of targeted therapies in GIST treatment among Taiwanese population. Methods: We conducted a nationwide retrospective cohort study based on data from the National Health Insurance Research Database (NHIRD) between January 2005 and December 2010. NHIRD is a comprehensive database of administrative and claim data which covers over 99% of entire population in Taiwan. Patients were selected with ICD codes and targeted therapy utilization, imatinib (IMA) or sunitinib (SUN). Time to treatment discontinuation (DC) due to any reasons (such as death, intolerance and disease progression) was estimated using Kaplan-Meier analysis. Results: From 2005 to 2010, the incidence rate of GIST in Taiwan was between 20 and 30 cases per million. A total of 3,436 GIST patients were identified; the mean age was 63.2 years and 57 % were male. Most patients (94.7%) received standard dose IMA (…400mg/day). Among these patients, 136 patients (4.0%) required IMA dose escalation and 44 (1.3%) patients switched to SUN after IMA. The probability of the 1st-line treatment DC was 20%, 30.7%, 38.9%, 43.2%, and 47.1% for years 1 to 5, respectively. The probability of a change in treatment pattern (defined as either IMA dose escalation or switch to SUN) was 4% 6.8%, 9.6%, 10.5% and 11.7% for years 1 to 5. Lastly, the probability of the 2nd-line treatment DC was 20.5%, 33.7%, 41.1%, 44.8%, 51.7% for years 1 to 5, respectively. Conclusions: First-line IMA plus other treatment modalities may provide additional benefits to progression-free survival. Taiwanese GIST patients who failed first-line treatment still gained benefit from either IMA dose escalation or a switch to SUN. Additional analysis is required for the detailed comparison in different treatment patterns.

e15602 Background: Imatinib is accepted as the standard first-line therapy to treat gastrointestinal stromal tumor (GIST) in patients with unresectable or metastatic disease. In the case of disease progression, physicians may consider increasing imatinib dose or switching to another second-line agent, such as sunitinib. The aim of this study was to analyze the real-world long term treatment patterns of GIST patients. Methods: Two large claims databases from 01/1999 to 03/2008 were combined (MarketScan and Ingenix Impact) to extract patients diagnosed with GIST who initiated on imatinib ≥400 mg/day. Patients were followed from the first observed imatinib prescription to the end of data availability. Patients who dose increased during the study period were defined as dose escalators, while patients who later switched to sunitinib with or without dose escalation were defined as switchers. Kaplan Meier analyses were used to estimate the rate of treatment changes over time including imatinib discontinuation, defined as a lack of imatinib supply for ≥60 days, and switching back to initial treatment. Results: Among the 1,508 GIST patients who initiated on imatinib, 253 patients had a dose increase and 153 patients switched to sunitinib during the study period. 20.1% patients on imatinib discontinued by the end of the first year, and 43.0% discontinued by the end of the third year. Among the 153 switchers, 61 patients had a dose escalation prior to the switch, of which 82.0% reached 800 mg before switching. Among all the switchers, 20.3% switched back to imatinib within 6 months. Conclusions: These claims-based findings on the duration of first-line imatinib therapy of GIST patients supports data on imatinib efficacy in treating GIST from formal clinical research studies. Most of GIST patients who initiated imatinib continued on this therapy without undergoing dose increase or switch to sunitinib. Among switchers, most did not dose escalate before switching and many eventually switched back to imatinib. It appears that physicians tend to not always follow clinical practice guidelines developed based on expert consensus, with respect to decision rules for dose escalation, or for the appropriate time to change kinase inhibitor therapy.
