AbstractAsunercept (company code APG101 [Apogenix AG]; company code CAN008 [CANbridge Pharmaceuticals]) is a novel glycosylated fusion protein that has shown promising effectiveness in glioblastoma. This Phase I study was initiated to evaluate the tolerability and safety of asunercept in combination with standard radiotherapy and temozolomide (RT/TMZ) in Asian patients with newly diagnosed glioblastoma. This was the Phase I portion of a Phase I/II open label, multicenter trial of asunercept plus standard RT/TMZ. Adults with newly-diagnosed glioblastoma received surgical resection followed by standard RT/TMZ plus asunercept 200 mg/week (Cohort 1) or 400 mg/week (Cohort 2) by 30-min IV infusion. The primary endpoint was the safety and tolerability of asunercept during concurrent asunercept and RT/TMZ; dose-limiting toxicities were observed for each dose. Secondary endpoints included pharmacokinetics (PK) and 6-month progression-free survival (PFS6). All patients (Cohort 1, n = 3; Cohort 2, n = 7) completed ≥ 7 weeks of asunercept treatment. No DLTs were experienced. Only one possibly treatment-related treatment emergent adverse event (TEAE), Grade 1 gingival swelling, was observed. No Grade > 3 TEAEs were reported and no TEAE led to treatment discontinuation. Systemic asunercept exposure increased proportionally with dose and showed low inter-patient variability. The PFS6 rate was 33.3% and 57.1% for patients in Cohort 1 and 2, respectively. Patients in Cohort 2 maintained a PFS rate of 57.1% at Month 12. Adding asunercept to standard RT/TMZ was safe and well tolerated in patients with newly-diagnosed glioblastoma and 400 mg/week resulted in encouraging efficacy.Trial registration NCT02853565, August 3, 2016.

Phase Iii Study

Abstract A randomized phase III trial in Japan commenced in June 2019. The present standard treatment for newly diagnosed glioblastoma is maximal resection followed by chemoradiotherapy with temozolomide. The purpose of this study is to confirm the superiority of maximal resection with carmustine wafer implantation followed by chemoradiotherapy with temozolomide over the standard maximal resection followed by chemoradiotherapy with temozolomide in terms of overall survival for newly diagnosed glioblastoma. A total of 250 patients will be accrued from 35 Japanese institutions in 5.5 years. Patients with >90% surgical resection will be registered and randomly assigned to each group with 1:1 allocation. The primary endpoint is overall survival and the secondary endpoints are progression-free survival, loco-regional progression-free survival and incidence of adverse events. This trial has been registered in the Japan Registry of Clinical Trial, as jRCT1031190035 [https://jrct.niph.go.jp/en-latest-detail/jRCT1031190035].

Abstract Preclinical studies indicate that up-regulation of carbonic anhydrase (CA) by temozolomide (TMZ), via a mechanism requiring the proto-oncogene BCL-3, promotes resistance to therapy in glioblastoma (GBM) cells. Moreover, the CA inhibitor, acetazolamide (ACZ), sensitizes patient-derived GBM cells and xenografts to TMZ. These findings led to the current Phase I study investigating the safety and efficacy of adding ACZ to adjuvant TMZ in patients with newly diagnosed, MGMT-methylated malignant glioma. 24 patients were enrolled (23 GBM and one Grade III IDH-mutant astrocytoma), median age was 53.5 and mean KPS 91. ACZ was given on days 1-21 of each adjuvant TMZ cycle (250 mg BID days 1-7, increased to 500 mg BID days 8-21). No patient experienced the primary outcome of regimen limiting toxicity (RLT) and there were only three grade III adverse events deemed likely unrelated to ACZ. For the secondary endpoints of overall and progression free survival (OS and PFS, respectively), only the 23 GBM patients were included (22 IDH-wildtype and 1 IDH-mutant). From diagnosis, median PFS was 18.8 months (95% CI: 10.4-23.0) and median OS was 25.0 months (95% CI: 19.9-28.4). Median time from diagnosis to consent was 2.9 months. As of April 2021, only 7 of 23 deaths had occurred. 2-year OS% was 68.2%. Further analysis of secondary endpoints including 6-month objective response rate (ORR) and biomarker analysis of BCL-3 by IHC will be available in the coming months. In sum, the data indicate that addition of ACZ to TMZ is safe and does not lead to reduced TMZ dosing. Also, compared to historical data, interim outcomes suggest that addition of ACZ may substantially improve PFS and 2-year overall survival. These findings support the hypothesis that ACZ acts as a chemosensitizer of alkylating chemotherapy in GBM and support examination of this regimen in a randomized, placebo-controlled study.

Abstract BACKGROUND: In newly diagnosed patients, the addition of thalidomide or bortezomib (Velcade™) to the standard oral melphalan/prednisone combination significantly increased response rate and event-free survival. In this multicenter, open-label, non randomized, phase I/II trial, the safety/efficacy profile of the 4 drug combination, bortezomib (Velcade™), melphalan, prednisone, and thalidomide (VMPT) was evaluated in patients with relapsed/refractory myeloma. METHODS: Bortezomib was administered by IV bolus on days 1, 4, 15, 22 at three dose levels: in the first cohort (10 patients) at 1.0 mg/m2; in the second cohort (10 patients) at 1.3 mg/m2and in the third cohort (10 patients) at 1.6 mg/m2. Oral melphalan was administered at 6 mg/m2 on days 1–5, oral prednisone at 60 mg/m2 on days 1–5. Thalidomide was delivered at 50 mg on days 1–35. Each course was repeated every 35 days for a total of 6 courses. RESULTS: Thirty patients, median age 66 years (range 38–79), with relapsed or refractory myeloma were enrolled. Fourteen patients received VMPT as second line of therapy, 16 as third line. Twenty patients received prior autologous transplant, 10 conventional chemotherapy and 9 thalidomide-based regimens. After a median of 6 courses, 20 patients (67%) achieved a partial response (PR) including 13 patients (43%) who achieved at least a very good partial response (VGPR). Among patients who received VMPT as second line treatment, the PR rate was 79%, and the immunofixation negative complete response rate 36%. The 1-year progression-free survival was 61%, and the 1-year survival from study entry was 84%. Grade 3 non-hematological adverse events included: infections (5 patients), fatigue (1), vasculitis (1) and peripheral neuropathy (2); no grade 4 toxicities were recorded. CONCLUSIONS: Initial results showed that VMPT is an effective salvage therapy with a high proportion of responses. Toxicities were manageable. The incidence of neurotoxicities was unexpectedly low.

2066 Background: To evaluate the efficacy and tolerability of ifosfamide, carboplatin and etoposide ( ICE ) in patients with recurrent glioblastoma. Methods: This was an open-label, single-center phase II trial. Forty-two patients with first recurrent glioblastoma after surgery, standard radiotherapy and a first-line temozolomide-based or ACNU-based chemotherapy, were enrolled.The primary endpoint was progression-free survival at 6 months ( PFS-6 ), and secondary endpoints were response rate, toxicity, and survival. Chemotherapy consisted of Ifosfamide ( 700 mg / m2 on day 1, 2 and 3 ), carbopaltin ( 100 mg / m2 on day 1 ), etoposide ( 70 mg / m2 on day 1, 2, and 3 ), every 6 weeks. Results: PFS-6 was 37 %. The median PFS was 17 weeks. Response rate was 27 %. Adverse events were generally mild ( grade 1 or 2 ) and consisted mainly of alopecia. Conclusions: This regimen is well tolerated and has activity in patients with recurrent glioblastoma. No significant financial relationships to disclose.

Post Radiation

2076 Background: This study evaluated efficacy and safety of bevacizumab (BEV) added to the post-radiation treatment phase for patients with newly diagnosed glioblastoma (GBM). Methods: Sixty-two participants with newly diagnosed GBM were enrolled between May 2007 and June 2010. Participants received standard radiation therapy (RT) within 6 weeks of surgery, and concomitant administration of temozolomide (TMZ). Four weeks after radiation, treatment with TMZ (Days 1-5 of a 28 day cycle) with BEV, (days 1 and 15 of a 28 day cycle) was started, and continued until disease progressed or adverse effects indicated need to stop treatment. Analyses were completed for all participants by intention to treat (ITT), with progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) serving as primary and secondary endpoints respectively. Results: Subbjects completed a mean of 7.7 (range 0-29) cycles of post-RT with BEV and TMZ. Twenty participants (32%) were unable to proceed to the post-RT phase. The forty-two participants who did proceed to the post-RT phase completed a mean of 11.5 cycles of treatment. Thirty-eight participants (61%) stopped the study due to disease progression; 6 participants (14%) voluntarily discontinued treatment after 24 cycles with at least stable disease. At a median follow-up time of 24 months, median progression-free survival (PFS) for all participants was 8.8 months while median overall survival (OS) was 16.5 months for all participants. Ly with These results also compare favorably with recently reported results from the AVAglio study (PFS = 10.6 mo.). The toxicity profile was consistent with that reported in similar studies. MGMT promoter methtion.ylation status is under investiga Conclusions: Participants in this study demonstrated a median 1.9 month PFS benefit as compared to the 6.9 median OS reported by Stupp, et al. (2005) and a median 1.9 month OS benefit as compared to the 14.6 month median OS reported by Stupp, et al. (2005). Results suggest that the addition of bevacizumab to the post-RT phase of treatment improves both PFS and OS for persons with GBM despite the high percentage of participants being unable to progress to post-radiation treatment.

777 Background: Surgical resection can improve survival of patients with resectable colorectal liver metastases (CLMs). Here, we investigatedthe efficacy and safety of XELOX as perioperative treatment for patients with potentially resectable CLM. Methods: Patients with potentially resectable liver-only metastases from CRC were enrolled. The primary endpoint of this study was progression-free survival (PFS); and the secondary endpoints included objective response rate (ORR), R0 resection rate, overall survival (OS) and safety profile of perioperative treatment of XELOX. Eligible patients were treated with XELOX (oxaliplatin 130 mg/m2 on day 1 plus capecitabine 1,000 mg/m2 b.i.d. for 14 days every 3 weeks). Tumor remission was assessed by CT after 6 weeks (2 cycles) of chemotherapy. Resectability of CLM was assessed by CT after 12 weeks (4 cycles) of chemotherapy. Adjuvant chemotherapy using XELOX was started within 8 weeks after hepatectomy. Results: Thirty patients (17 males and 13 females) were enrolled from 10 medical sites between January 2010 and October 2011, with median age of 57.5 years (range: 32-77). Median PFS was 336 days (95% CI: 173~385), and median OS was 912 days (95% CI: 516~1332). The ORR was 40% (12/30). The conversion rate from unresectable to resectable was 43.3% (13/30). Among these 11 patients who had received surgery (2 had withdrawn consent), 10 (90.9%) had received R0 resection. Subgroup analysis shows that patients who had received hepatectomy had longer median PFS [95% CI] (382 days [210~518] vs. 173 days [111~337], p = 0.0268) and median OS [95% CI] (1332 [721~NA] vs. 516 [295~1046], p = 0.005). There were 4 patients with post-operation complications of ascites and/or hydrothorax, and 3 patients had early chemotherapy termination due to drug-related AEs, including leukopenia, hepatotoxicity and diarrhea. Conclusions: Perioperative chemotherapy of XELOX is an option for patients with potentially resectable CLM due to the effect in prolonging PFS and OS, as well as the manageable toxicities and post-operation complications. Clinical trial information: NCT00997685.
