Purpose Both docetaxel and thalidomide have demonstrated activity in androgen-independent prostate cancer (AIPC). We compared the efficacy of docetaxel to docetaxel plus thalidomide in patients with AIPC. Methods Seventy-five patients with chemotherapy-naïve metastatic AIPC were randomly assigned to receive either docetaxel 30 mg/m2 intravenously every week for 3 consecutive weeks, followed by a 1-week rest period (n = 25); or docetaxel at the same dose and schedule, plus thalidomide 200 mg orally each day (n = 50). Prostate-specific antigen (PSA) consensus criteria and radiographic scans were used to determine the proportion of patients with a PSA decline, and time to progression. Results After a median potential follow-up time of 26.4 months, the proportion of patients with a greater than 50% decline in PSA was higher in the docetaxel/thalidomide group (53% in the combined group, 37% in docetaxel-alone arm). The median progression-free survival in the docetaxel group was 3.7 months and 5.9 months in the combined group (P = .32). At 18 months, overall survival in the docetaxel group was 42.9% and 68.2% in the combined group. Toxicities in both groups were manageable after administration of prophylactic low-molecular-weight heparin in the combination group. Conclusion In this randomized phase II trial, the addition of thalidomide to docetaxel resulted in an encouraging PSA decline rate and overall median survival rate in patients with metastatic AIPC. After the prophylactic low-molecular-weight heparin was instituted to prevent venous thromboses, the combination regimen was well tolerated. Larger randomized trials are warranted to assess the impact of this combination.

133 Background: Docetaxel remains the standard of care for patients (pts) with mCRPC. However, the optimal duration of chemotherapy (Ch) is not known. Providing Ch holidays is often undertaken, but is not well characterized. A randomized phase II trial was undertaken to test two ICh regimens. Methods: Pts with Ch naive mCRPC and KPS > 60% were eligible. Pts were treated with “induction” docetaxel 75 mg/m2 q3 weeks, and prednisone 5 mg po bid. After 6 cycles, responding pts (PSAWG1 criteria) stopped Ch and were randomized to observation (Obs) or to GM-CSF, 250 mcg/m2 sq daily for 14 days out of every 28 day cycle. Pts were followed with monthly PSA and imaging every 2 cycles until progressive disease (PD) by PSAWG1 criteria, at which point they resumed treatment with Ch, again for 6 cycles, followed by the same “off Ch” regimen. The primary endpoint was the time to PD while on Ch (time to Ch resistance.) Results: Of 97enrolled pts to date, 94 are evaluable (3 are still undergoing induction). 69 pts completed induction (25 did not due to PD, adverse events (AE), or MD choice), of which 27 had PD after 6 cycles. Thus, 42/94 evaluable pts (45%) were eligible for randomization. Of these, 21 pts underwent Obs and 21 received GM-CSF. To date, 23/42 (55%) pts who underwent a Ch holiday restarted Ch, all for PSA PD. 8/23 (35%) had a response to Ch re-initiation. (15 pts did not re-start Ch because of AE, other therapy being started, or patient choice, and 4 pts are still undergoing either Obs or GM-CSF.) Obs pts were “off Ch” for a median of 2 months (range 2-4), compared with 3 months (range 2-8) for GM-CSF pts. Conclusions: While feasible, only 45% of pts met criteria for ICh. 35% of pts responded to Ch re-initiation. Insufficient data exist to assess the impact of GM-CSF on time off Ch or time to Ch resistance. No significant financial relationships to disclose.

4018 Background: Gemcitabine/platinum combination is considered as globally acceptable standard care in patients with ABTC. Two recently published randomized trials showed adding EGFR antagonist, either erlotinib or cetuximab, does not further improve the clinical outcomes of gemcitabine/oxaliplatin (GEMOX)-treated ABTC patients. However, the impact of KRAS mutation status on the results of both studies was not properly addressed. Methods: A prospective, multicenter randomized, phase II trial to evaluate the therapeutic efficacies of adding cetuximab to GEMOX in patients with ABTC, in which eligible patients were stratified by status of KRAS mutation and ECOG PS, and tumor location then randomized to receive either GEMOX (gemcitabine 800 mg/m2, fixed-rate infusion and oxaliplatin 85 mg/m2, i.v., Q 2 weeks) or GEMOX plus cetuximab (500 mg/m2, i.v., Q 2 weeks, C-GEMOX). The primary endpoint was overall response rate (ORR). As an exploratory trial, 120 (60 per arm) patients was estimated to detect a two-tailed 10% difference in ORR (20% in GEMOX and 30% in C-GEMOX) with a significant level of a=0.2 and b=0.5. Results: Between Nov 2010 and May 2012, a total of 122 patients were accrued. The demography was male: 47.5%, median age: 60 y/o, ECOG PS 0/1: 28.7%/71.3%, IHCC/EHCC/GBC: 71.3%/16.4%/12.3%, KRAS mutation: 36.1%, with locally advanced/metastatic diseases: 32.0%/68.0%, and prior surgical resection: 41.8%. On intent-to-treat analysis, the ORR and DCR in the C-GEMOX (N=62) and GEMOX (N-60) arms was 27.3% vs 15.0% (p=0.1223) and 82.2% vs 60.0% (p=0.0090), respectively (Fisher’s exact test); while the median PFS was 7.1 vs 4.0 months (p= 0.0069) and median OS was 10.3 vs 8.8 months (p=0.4057), respectively (log-rank test). Planned subgroup analysis showed the 43 patients with KRAS mutated tumors benefited more from cetuximab therapy, with a DCR of 78.3% vs 38.1% (p=0.0132), median PFS of 7.0 vs 1.9 months (p=0.0351) and median OS of 10.3 vs 6.6 months (p=0.6924). Conclusions: Adding cetuximab significant improves the DCR and PFS of GEMOX in ABTC patients, notably in subpopulation with KRAS mutated tumors. Larger-scale phase III trial is warranted. Clinical trial information: NCT01267344.

267 Background: Our randomized phase II trial showed adding cetuximab to GEMOX marginally improved the ORR and median PFS in ABTC patients regardless their KRAS mutation status. Recently, MET overexpression was noted in 11.7% to 16.2% of BTC, and associated with poor OS. ROS1 kinase fusion has also been detected in 8.6% of IHCC.The aim of the study is to evaluate the impact of ROS1, ALK and/or MET (RAM) overexpression on the clinical outcomes of ABTC patients. Methods: FFPE tissue sections that were prospectively collected for biomarker study from all 122 patients were subjected for determining the expression of ROS1, ALK and MET by IHC in a central laboratory. Results: Of 110 patients with enough tissue section for IHC of all three markers, 18 tumors were found to over-express ROS1 (in 9), ALK (in 5) and/or MET (in 6). One tumor over-expressed all three biomarkers. As compared with RAMlow tumors, the 18 RAMhigh tumors were significantly more of IHCC and without prior surgery, and with more frequent concurrent KRAS mutation. RAMhigh tumors was associated with significant inferior median OS than RAMlow tumors, 5.7 vs 11.8 months (p=0.04). Of the latter 92 patients, adding cetuximab improved the therapeutic efficacy of GEMOX in ABTC, with ORR of 31.8% vs 10.4% (p=0.02), DCR of 61.4% vs 37.5% (p=0.04) and median PFS of 7.0 vs 4.5 months (p=0.02). OS was only marginally affected, with median OS of 12.5 vs 10.4 months (p=0.36). The ORR in KRASwt and KRASmut patients receiving C-GEMOX and GEMOX was 34.5% vs 11.8% (p=0.04) and 26.7% vs 7.1% (p=0.33), respectively; whiles the DCR was 65.5% vs 50.0% (p=0.31) and 53.3% vs 7.1% (p=0.01), respectively, and the median PFS was 7.1 vs 5.8 months (p=0.07) and 7.0 vs 1.9 months (p=0.05), respectively. The results suggest that, the presence of KRAS mutation did not preclude the benefit of adding cetuximab to GEMOX in RAMlowsubpopulation. Conclusions: ROS1/ALK/METhigh ABTC had poor survival after C-GEMOX/GEMOX; while C-GEMOX significantly improved the ORR, DCR and PFS as compared to GEMOX alone in patients with ROS1/ALK/METlow tumors regardless their KRAS mutation status. Biomarker-driven design is warranted for future ABTC trials.

489 Background: Studies indicate that RAS mutations beyond KRAS exons 2-3 may predict anti-EGFRs benefit. EXPERT-C was a randomized phase II trial of neoadjuvant CAPOX and CRT ± C in MRI-defined, high-risk RC. We have previously shown that adding C in KRAS (exons 2-3)/BRAF wild type (WT) patients did not improve complete response (CR) and was associated with a non-significant improvement in progression-free survival (PFS) (HR 0.62, p=0.23) and overall survival (OS) (HR 0.56, p=0.20). The aim of this study was to analyse the impact of RAS mutations on the outcome of C-treated patients in this trial. Methods: Between October 2005 and July 2008, 164 eligible patients were randomly assigned to 4 cycles of CAPOX followed by CRT, surgery, and 4 cycles of adjuvant CAPOX (n=81) or the same regimen plus C (CAPOX-C, n=83). KRAS (exons 2-3) and NRAS (exon 3) mutations were prospectively analysed. Of 90 KRAS/NRAS WT patients, 84 were retrospectively analysed for additional KRAS (exon 4) and NRAS (exons 2/4) mutations by using bi-directional Sanger sequencing. The effect of C on CR, PFS, and OS in patients with RAS WT tumors was analyzed. PFS and OS were estimated with the Kaplan-Meier method and treatment arms compared using a log-rank analysis. Results: Eleven (13%) of 84 patients initially classified as KRAS/NRAS WT were found to have tumours harbouring a mutation in KRAS exon 4 (11%) or NRAS exons 2/4 (2%). Overall, after this retrospective mutation analysis, 78/149 (52%) assessable patients were RAS WT (CAPOX, n=40; CAPOX-C, n=38). After a median follow-up of 63.8 months, in line with the initial analysis, the addition of C in the group of RAS WT patients, was associated with numerically higher, but not statistically significant, rates of CR (15.8% vs. 7.5%, p=0.31), 5-year PFS (78.4% vs. 67.5%, p=0.17) and 5-year OS (83.8% vs. 70%, p=0.20). Conclusions: Although the results of our analysis are potentially affected by the small numbers, in our locally advanced RC population the status of RAS did not appear to significantly improve the selection of patients who may benefit from the use of an anti-EGFR therapy.
