Abstract Background To evaluate the efficacy and safety of cabozantinib in Japanese patients with advanced hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) who had progressed following one or two lines of systemic therapy including sorafenib. An exploratory evaluation in sorafenib-naïve patients was performed. Methods In this open-label, single-arm, phase 2 trial, patients received oral cabozantinib 60 mg once daily. The primary endpoint was progression-free survival (PFS) rate at Week 24. Secondary endpoints included PFS, overall survival (OS), objective response rate (ORR, best response of complete/partial response), disease control rate (DCR, objective response or stable disease) and safety. Results Thirty-four patients received cabozantinib across 17 centers (prior sorafenib cohort, n = 20; sorafenib-naïve cohort, n = 14). PFS rate at 24 weeks was 59.8% [90% confidence interval (CI) 36.1–77.2%] in the prior sorafenib cohort, 16.7% (90% CI 4.0–36.8%) in the sorafenib-naïve cohort and 40.1% (90% CI 24.8–55.0%) overall. Median PFS was 7.4 months for the prior sorafenib cohort, 3.6 months for the sorafenib-naïve cohort, and 5.6 months overall. OS rate at 6 months was 100.0%, 78.6% and 91.1%, respectively; DCR was 85.0%, 64.3% and 76.5%, respectively. The ORR was 0.0% for both cohorts. All patients required dose modifications due to adverse events, the most common of these were palmar–plantar erythrodysesthesia syndrome and diarrhea. Three patients (8.8%) discontinued due to adverse events other than disease progression. Conclusions Cabozantinib 60 mg/day has a favorable benefit/risk profile for Japanese patients with advanced HCC who have previously received one or two lines of systemic anticancer therapy including sorafenib.

TPS9594 Background: Pembro, a PD-1 inhibitor, has shown effective antitumor activity, deep and durable responses, and survival benefit in treatment-naive pts and those with previously treated metastatic melanoma. Len, a potent inhibitor of VEGF receptors 1-3, FGF receptors 1-4, PDGF receptor α, RET, and KIT, combined with a PD-1 inhibitor showed antitumor activity superior to either agent alone in preclinical models of colorectal and lung cancer. Additionally, len plus pembro showed anti-tumor activity and was well-tolerated (24-wk ORR, 47.6%; TRAE: gr 3/4, 67%; gr 5, 0%) in pts with advanced melanoma previously treated with 0-2 therapies in the phase 1b/2 KEYNOTE-146 trial. The efficacy and safety of len plus pembro combination therapy will be evaluated in an open-label, phase 2 trial of pts with advanced melanoma that progressed on PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitor therapy (NCT03776136). Methods: Key inclusion criteria: age ≥18 years, histologically/cytologically confirmed unresectable stage III-IV melanoma that progressed (per iRECIST) within 12 weeks of last dose of an approved PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitor therapy (≥2 doses as monotherapy or combined with other therapies), measurable disease, ECOG PS 0/1, no active autoimmune disease, and adequate organ function. Pts must provide a baseline tumor sample. Pts will receive len 20 mg/day orally plus pembro 200 mg IV Q3W for approximately 2 years (35 doses of pembro), after which they may receive len alone until PD or unacceptable toxicity. Response will be assessed per RECIST v1.1 based on blinded independent central review (BICR) Q9W until week 54, Q12W until week 102, and Q24W thereafter. Pts with CR may discontinue treatment after ≥24 weeks of therapy; eligible pts may continue treatment beyond initial RECIST- or iRECIST-defined PD. AEs will be assessed throughout treatment and for 90 days (120 days for serious AEs) after last dose and graded per NCI CTCAE v4.0. Pts will be followed-up for survival status Q12W. The primary efficacy end point is ORR per modified RECIST v1.1 (BICR). Key secondary end points are PFS and DOR per modified RECIST v1.1 (BICR), OS, and safety; an exploratory biomarker analysis is planned. Clinical trial information: NCT03776136.
