15035 Background: Paclitaxel has been shown to be effective in patients with advanced gastric cancer. We assess the combination of paclitaxel (Anzatax®, Mayne Pharma), infusional 5-fluorouracil and Cisplatin as first-line chemotherapy for metastatic or recurrent gastric cancer. Methods: Patients with previously untreated metastatic gastric adenocarcinomas are eligible. Fifty patients received paclitaxel (Anzatax®, Mayne Pharma) 150mg/m2 by 2-hour infusion day 1, cisplatin 15 mg/m2 daily days 1 through 5, and 5- fluorouracil by continuous infusion at a dose of 600 mg//m2 daily days 1 through 5. Cycles were repeated every 3weeks until progression. Objective tumor responses, duration of response, time to progression, and toxicity profile are the end points evaluated in this study. Results: Total 50 patients were enrolled (41 men, 9 women). The median age was 59 years (range 32 - 75). All patients had ECOG performance status (PS) 0–2 and adequate organ functions. 50 patients completed one-six cycles (mean 3 cycles). Forty-four patients were evaluable and all patients were assessable toxicity. In these 44 assessable patients, 1 CRs and 14 PRs were obtained, resulting in an overall response rate of 34%. 19 patients (43.2%) had stable disease, and 3 patients (8.9%) progressed. The tumor control rate was 77.3%. The median time to progression(TTP) was 5 months. The major (Grade 3–4) toxicities were neutropenia (22%) and anorexia (4%). There were no treatment-related deaths were recorded in all patients. The median and overall survival times are now being followed up and the results will be announced during the ASCO 2007 annual meeting. Conclusion: The combination of paclitaxel (Anzatax®, Mayne Pharma), cisplatin,and 5-FU has substantial antitumor activity in advanced gastric cancer. The toxicity of this regimen is within acceptable range, but no remarkable response rate was noted. Paclitaxel is an important new agent in the treatment of gastric cancer, and further evaluation of this agent in combination chemotherapy is warranted.

Five electronic databases were searched for eligible records. Outcomes were presented and analyzed according to the objective response rate (ORR), progression-free survival (PFS) rate, and overall survival (OS) rate. Five records involving 2,024 participants were included in the study. The pooled analysis of OS and PFS were longer with ramucirumab (RAM) therapy than without RAM for OS (odds ratio OR = 0.90 , 95% confidence interval CI = 0.82 – 1.00 , p = 0.05 ) and PFS ( OR = 0.74 , 95 % CI = 0.57 – 0.96 , p = 0.02 ). Moreover, compared with the current first-line chemotherapy, the OS ( OR = 0.93 , 95 % CI = 0.83 – 1.04 , p = 0.19 ) and PFS ( OR = 0.82 , 95 % CI = 0.64 – 1.06 , p = 0.13 ) results were not significantly higher with RAM. The ORRs of the patients in the RAM therapy groups were significantly higher than those in the groups without RAM ( OR = 1.40 , 95 % CI = 1.14 – 1.73 , p = 0.001 ).

18109 Background: Most patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) receive either single agents or doublet chemotherapy. For non-elderly patients in good performance status, platinum-based double combinations represent the standard treatment. And oral UFT had the survival advantage in adjuvant setting. Therefore we performed a phase II study using the combination of gemcitabine, cisplatin and UFT as a first line therapy in patients with advanced NSCLC. Methods: Eligible patients had histologically or cytologically confirmed stage IIIB or IV NSCLC with good performance status and were chemotherapy-naive. This study was two-stage design and planned number of patients was forty-seven. Gemcitabine (1,250 mg/m2, 10 mg/kg/min on days 1 and 8) and cisplatin (75 mg/m2 on day 1) were injected intravenously and UFT (400 mg/day) was administered orally on day 1–14. Treatment repeated every 3 weeks. Primary end point was overall response rate and secondary end points were overall survival, time to progression and toxicity. Results: Thirty seven patients with advanced NSCLC were enrolled. The median age of the patients was 60 years (range: 44 to 72). The performance status (WHO) was 0 in 4, 1 in 30 and 2 in 3 patients. Twenty three patients completed six cycles. Complete response was achieved in 1 (3%) patient, partial response in 22 (59%) patients, stable disease in 9 (24%) patients. Overall response rate was 62% on intent to treat basis. Among patients who response evaluation was possible (33 patients), response rate was 70%. The median survival time was 14.5 months (95% CI 6.9, 22.3) and the 1 year survival was 35% and then median time to progression was 3.4 months(95% CI 3, 3.9). Toxicities were moderate and mostly hematological adverse events. Grade 3/4 neutropenia occurred in 37%, 5 patients with febrile neutropenia. Grade 3/4 anemia and thrombocypenia was occurred in 37% and 5%. Nonhematologic toxicities were mild. Conclusion: The combination therapy consisted of gemcitabine, cisplatin and UFT is active and well tolerable first line regimen for NSCLC patients.

LBA5033 Background: CP is standard first-line chemotherapy for AOC. MITO-2 (Multicentre Italian Trials in Ovarian Cancer) is an academic multicenter randomized phase III study, testing whether C-PLD is more effective than CP. Methods: AOC chemo-naïve patients (pts), stage IC-IV, aged≤75, ECOG PS≤2, were randomized to CP (C AUC5 + P 175 mg/m2,d1q3w) or to C-PLD (C AUC5 + PLD 30 mg/m2,d1q3w), both for 6 cycles. Primary endpoint was progression-free survival (PFS). Secondary endpoints were overall survival (OS), response rate, toxicity and quality of life (QoL). To have 80% power in detecting a 0.80 HR in PFS, with 2-sided α error 0.05, 632 events were needed and 820 pts were planned. Response rate and toxicity have been reported at ASCO 2009 (abs #LBA5508). All analyses are based on intention to treat. Results: From Jan ’03 to Nov ’07, 820 pts were randomized, 410 to each arm. Median age was 57 yrs (range 21-77). Stage III (60%) and IV (21%) were prevalent. A plateau in PFS events was reached before obtaining the planned number. Thus, following an IDMC recommendation, the final analysis was done with 556 events occurred as of December 31, 2009. This size is consistent with HR to be detected equal to 0.79, with 80% power. With a median follow-up of 40.2 months, median PFS was 19.0 and 16.8 months with C-PLD and CP, respectively (HR 0.95, 95%CI 0.81-1.13, log-rank p value=0.58). Lack of significant difference was confirmed (HR 0.96, 95%CI 0.81-1.14) at multivariable analysis adjusted by stage, PS, residual disease, age and size of the institution. There was no heterogeneity of treatment effect among major subgroups. With 313 deaths recorded, median OS was 61.6 and 53.2 months with C-PLD and CP, respectively (HR 0.89, 95%CI 0.72-1.12, log-rank p value=0.32). QoL data will be presented at the meeting. Conclusions: In the MITO-2 trial, C-PLD was not found to be superior to CP, which remains the standard first-line chemotherapy for AOC.However, given the observed confidence interval and the different toxicity profile, C-PLD could be considered an alternative to standard therapy. Study was partially supported by Schering-Plough. [Table: see text]

15036 Background: To investigate the efficacy and toxicity of combination irinotecan and docetaxel in patients with ovarian carcinoma refractory (not responded) or resistant (relapsed within 6 months after the last chemotherapy) to the first line chemotherapy with combination paclitaxel (175mg/m2) and carboplatin (AUC=5). Methods: 30 refractory patients and 28 resistant patients with measurable disease were treated with combination irinotecan (60 mg/m2) and docetaxel (30 mg/m2) at days 1 and 8 every 3 weeks for more than 2 courses. Results: The average number of courses administered was 2.6 for refractory cases and 3.4 for resistant cases. The average number of courses administered was 2.6 for refractory cases and 3.4 for resistant cases. Using RECIST criteria, 2/28 (7%) resistant cases responded completely, 6/30 (20%) of refractory cases and 6/28 (21%) resistant cases were responded partially. 16/30 refractory cases and 14/28 cases progressed. Grade 3–4 toxicities were leukopenia (31%) neutropenia (36%) thrombocytopenia (8%) and diarrhea (6%). Conclusions: Combination chemotherapy of CPT-11 and Docetaxel at days 1 and 8 every 3 weeks is a regimen with moderate toxicity and good compliance, and shows some response to those patients who are refractory or resistant to the first-line chemotherapy with paclitaxel and carboplatin with a response rate of 20% and 29%, respectively.

14596 Background: FOLFOX is usually employed as first line treatment of MCC. Some patients (pts), for both clinical reasons and poor compliance, are not eligible for CVD insertion. At the moment, it is not clear if FUFOX (with 5-FU bolus) is less active than FOLFOX (with 5-FU infusion). We evaluated the outcome of MCC pts treated, as first line, with FUFOX. Primary end-point is efficacy. Secondary endpoints are time to progression (TTP) and overall survival (OS). Toxicity is also reported. Materials and Methods: We analysed all consecutive MCC patients who referred to our centre, without CVD, treated with the Hochster regimen: Oxaliplatin 85 mg/m2 days 1, 15; Leucovorin 20 mg/m2 and 5-FU 500 mg/m2 bolus days 1, 8, 15 - every 28 days. Response rate was evaluated with RECIST criteria. TTP and OS were analysed with Kaplan-Meier methods. Results: From July 2003 to October 2006 we treated 25 MCC pts. Main characteristics were: median age 71 years (range 46–79), 12 males, 13 females; PS 0–1; metastatic sites: liver 15 pts; lung 6; abdominal 10. 2 pts are early. A total of 128 courses were administered (5,4 median courses/pt, range 3–9). 5/23 pts (21.7% 90%CI: 9.0%-40.4%) had a PR and 2 achieved a secondary complete surgery. 15/23 pts (65.2%: 90%CI: 46.0%-81.4%) had a SD and 3 pts (13.0%: 90%CI: 3.7%- 30.4%) had a PD. At the moment of analysis 14 pts are still alive with a median follow up of 25 months; the median time to progression is 7.2 months. This combination was well tolerated with no grade 3–4 toxicities observed. G1-G2 peripheral neurotoxicity is reported in 15/25 pts (60%). Other common toxicities are: G1–2 haematological in 10 pts (40%); G1–2 gastrointestinal in 7 pts (28%); asthenia 5 pts (20%). Conclusions: We observed a low response rate, but high number of stable disease. Toxicity was acceptable. Although this is a not controlled study, this regimen seems to be less effective than infusional regimens but, due to the high control rate of disease (86.9%) we can consider it an alternative choice for patients that refuse or cannot receive continuous infusion.

e16151 Background: IV NVB plus hydrocortisone (HC) compared with HC alone resulted in improved clinical benefit, progression-free survival (PFS) and PSA response rate in HRPC. The oral formulation of NVB avoids the side effects associated with the IV injection, may reduce administration and toxicity-related costs and is easy to administer. Due to these advantages, single agent oral NVB treatment could be considered as an optimal option for patients (p) with HRPC previously treated with a taxane or as first-line treatment when a taxane is not indicated. We retrospectively evaluated efficacy and toxicity or oral NVB administered as single agent as first or second-line chemotherapy of metastatic HRPC. Methods: Retrospectively data was collected from p with metastatic HRPC treated with oral NVB 80 mg/m2 days 1 and 8, with a prior test of myelosensitivity at 60 mg/m2 for the first cycle, plus prednisone 10 mg/day. Patients had received a taxane as first-line treatment or had a documented contraindication to receiving docetaxel. 1 cycle was equivalent to a 3-week period. Results: Data on 55 p treated in 11 Spanish centres were included for assessment. Median age was 72.5 years (range 54–86). ECOG PS 0, 17%; 1, 66%; 2, 17%. Median PSA 75 ng/mL. Prior taxane chemotherapy, 87%. Median number of cycles was 4 (range 1–6). 53.8% of p could escalate oral NVB to 80 mg/m2. 221 cycles were performed, 4.1% were delayed and 3.2% had a dose reduction. Grade 3–4 events were infrequent and mainly haematological: neutropenia (5.5% of p), anemia (3.6%), pain (3.6%), infection (1.8%), asthenia (1.8%), respiratory (1.8%). No febrile neutropenia was reported. 49 p were evaluable for PSA response rate; complete plus partial response was observed in 20.4% (95% CI: 10.2% - 34.3%) and PSA stable was reported in 40.8%. 29 p were evaluable for measurable disease; among them, 20.7% presented partial response and 44.8% stable disease. Median follow-up was 4.3 months. Survival status: 49 p (89.1%) are alive and 6 p (10.9%) died. Conclusions: Oral NVB is a safe and active regimen in previous chemotherapy treated HRPC. For those p who can not receive a taxane as first-line therapy, oral NVB can also be considered as an effective first-line treatment. No significant financial relationships to disclose.
