The survival of most patients with advanced stage non-small cell lung cancer is prolonged by several months when they are treated with first- and next-generation inhibitors targeting ALK rearrangements, but resistance inevitably emerges. Some of the mechanisms of resistance are sensitive to novel ALK inhibitors but after an initial tumor response, more or less long-term resistance sets in. Therefore, to adapt treatment it is necessary to repeat biological sampling over time to look for different mechanisms of resistance. To this aim it is essential to obtain liquid and/or tissue biopsies to detect therapeutic targets, in particular for the analysis of different genomic alterations. This review discusses the mechanisms of resistance to therapeutics targeting genomic alterations in ALK as well as the advantages and the limitations of liquid biopsies for their identification.

e15620 Background: VFL is the standard chemotherapy in second-line advanced TCCU in Europe (EMA approval 21/09/2009). We set up a multicenter retrospective study to evaluate the efficacy and toxicity of VFL in patients (pts) with advanced TCCU after platinum failure within the framework of routine practice. Methods: Descriptive and retrospective study in pts who had demonstrated prior progression to a platinum-containing chemotherapy regimen at 7 centers. VFL standard dose (280-320/m2 every three weeks) was administered until progression or unacceptable toxicity. Objective response was evaluated according to RECIST criteria v.1.1. Results: Between April 2010 and December 2012, a total of 45 pts with median age of 68 years (range 47-83) were analyzed. Main characteristics: ECOG 0-1-2 in 7pts (15.6%), 33pts (73.3%), 5pts (11.1%). Mean creatinine clearance was 59 ml/min. Primary sites of disease were bladder 39pts (86.7%), renal pelvis 5pts (11.1%) and prostatic urethra 1pt (2.2%). All pts had previously received platinum-based chemotherapy as a first-line treatment (cisplatin in 45% of pts). Metastatic locations were: 27pts (60%) lymph nodes, 18pts (40%) lung, 13pts (29%) bone and 10pts (22%) liver. The median number of cycles of VFL was 5 (1-18). All pts were assessed for response, one (2.2%) patient presented complete response (CR), 11pts (24.4%) partial response (PR), 18pts (40%) stable disease (SD) and 15pts (33.4%) progressive disease (PD). Median progression-free survival was 4 months (95% CI, 2.2-5.7). Median overall survival (OS) was 11 months (95% CI, 3.5-18). OS at 6 months was 45%. Liver metastasis was the main prognostic factor for OS (p=0.04). Grade 3/4 adverse events included neutropenia 6pts (13%), constipation 4pts (9%), abdominal pain 4pts (9%) and nausea/vomiting 3pts (6%). Conclusions: This retrospective analysis confirm VFL as an active agent in pts progressing after platinum-based combination for advanced TCCU in a daily clinical practice in Spain. As ESMO (Bellmunt J, 2011) and Spanish (Castellano D, 2012) guidelines recommend vinflunine, it should be offered in this setting or alternatively, treatment within a clinical trial.
