Abstract Objectives Scalable informatics solutions that provide molecularly tailored treatment recommendations to clinicians are needed to streamline precision oncology in care settings. Materials and Methods We developed a cloud-based virtual molecular tumor board (VMTB) platform that included a knowledgebase, scoring model, rules engine, an asynchronous virtual chat room and a reporting tool that generated a treatment plan for each of the 1725 patients based on their molecular profile, previous treatment history, structured trial eligibility criteria, clinically relevant cancer gene-variant assertions, biomarker-treatment associations, and current treatment guidelines. The VMTB systematically allows clinician users to combine expert-curated data and structured data from clinical charts along with molecular testing data to develop consensus on treatments, especially those that require off-label and clinical trial considerations. Results The VMTB was used as part of the cancer care process for a focused subset of 1725 patients referred by advocacy organizations wherein resultant personalized reports were successfully delivered to treating oncologists. Median turnaround time from data receipt to report delivery decreased from 14 days to 4 days over 4 years while the volume of cases increased nearly 2-fold each year. Using a novel scoring model for ranking therapy options, oncologists chose to implement the VMTB-derived therapies over others, except when pursuing immunotherapy options without molecular support. Discussion VMTBs will play an increasingly critical role in precision oncology as the compendium of biomarkers and associated therapy options available to a patient continues to expand. Conclusion Further development of such clinical augmentation tools that systematically combine patient-derived molecular data, real-world evidence from electronic health records and expert curated knowledgebases on biomarkers with computational tools for ranking best treatments can support care pathways at point of care.

The Impact

e19266 Background: HFHS implemented clinically-oriented Precision Medicine Program (PMP) in 2016. As part of the program, multidisciplinary molecular tumor board (MTB) was created to review complex molecular cases, providing guidance to treating medical oncologist in selecting targeted therapies and clinical trials. In some cases MTB recommended genetic counseling or recommended against/for additional molecular testing. MTB consists of oncologists, molecular pathologists, clinical trial staff, and genetic counselors. MTB was designed as teaching platform engaging hematology-oncology fellows into cases analysis and presentation. Here we present preliminary analysis of the impact of the MTB on the HFHS oncology practice. Methods: From 09/08/2017 to 12/31/2019 MTB reviewed 120 cases, 116 cases were used for this analysis. Data was abstracted using Syapse precision oncology platform, MTB recommendation note, electronic medical record (EMR), and molecular test results. Results: Out of 116 pts 83 (72%) were Caucasian, 25 (22%) African American, 4 (3%) Asian, 1 (1%) American Indian. Fifty-two % (n = 21) had an ECOG performance status of 1. Most common primary disease sites were lung (39%, n = 45) brain (12%, n = 15), and hematologic cancers (9%; n = 10), followed by breast (5%, n = 6), prostate (4%, n = 5), colon (3%, n = 4), and others (28%, n = 31). The most common genetic abnormalities discussed were atypical EGFR (n = 15), non-V600 BRAF (n = 10), KRAS (n = 8), BRCA2 (n = 5), NF2 (n = 4), PTEN (n = 4), CSF3R (n = 3), IDH1 (n = 3), TP53 (n = 3), and 29 less common mutations. Thirty five (30%) pts out of 116 total were recommended clinical trials, although only 3 patients (10% of recommended) were enrolled into trials. 31 pts (27%) were recommended off-label therapy, although trials were preferred. 18% of pts (n = 21) were recommended genetics referral, although only 3 have seen Geneticist, with two undergoing germline testing. One pt was discovered to have a germline RET V804M mutation which was originally detected in the cancer. Conclusions: The first two years of data demonstrate the utility of the MTB and provide a basis for ongoing analysis. Through multidisciplinary approach, MTB encourages care coordination and collaboration. MTB resulted in genetics referrals, clinical trial recommendations, and identification of targeted therapy options, including off label. In many cases, MTB recommendations prevented futile therapies and/or additional molecular testing.

11035 Background: The accelerated impact of next generation sequencing (NGS) in clinical decision making requires the integration of cancer genomics and precision oncology focused training into medical oncology education. The Johns Hopkins Molecular Tumor Board (JH MTB) is a multi-disciplinary effort focused on integration of NGS findings with critical evidence interpretation to generate personalized recommendations tailored to the genetic footprint of individual patients. Methods: The JH MTB and the Medical Oncology Fellowship Program have developed a 3-month precision oncology elective for fellows in their research years. Commencing fall of 2020, the goals of this elective are to enhance the understanding of NGS platforms and findings, advance the interpretation and characterization of molecular assay outputs by use of mutation annotators and knowledgebases and ultimately master the art of matching NGS findings with available therapies. Fellow integration into the MTB focuses on mentored case-based learning in mutation characterization and ranking by levels of evidence for actionability, with culmination in form of verbal presentations and written summary reports of final MTB recommendations. A mixed methods questionnaire was administered to evaluate progress since elective initiation. Results: Three learners who have participated as of February 2021 were included. Of the two who had completed the MTB elective, each have presented at least 10 cases, with at least 1 scholarly publication planned. All indicated strong agreement that MTB elective had increased their comfort with interpreting clinical NGS reports as well as the use of knowledgebases and variant annotators. Exposure to experts in the field of molecular precision oncology, identification of resources necessary to interpret clinical NGS reports, development of ability to critically assess various NGS platforms, and gained familiarity with computational analyses relevant to clinical decision making were noted as strengths of the MTB elective. Areas of improvement included ongoing initiatives that involve streamlining variant annotation and transcription of information for written reports. Conclusions: A longitudinal elective in the JHU MTB has been found to be preliminarily effective in promoting knowledge mastery and creating academic opportunities related to the clinical application of precision medicine. Future directions will include leveraging of the MTB infrastructure for research projects, learner integration into computational laboratory meetings, and expansion of the MTB curriculum to include different levels of learners from multiple medical education programs. Continued elective participation will be key to understanding how best to facilitate adaptive expertise in assigning clinical relevance to genomic findings, ultimately improving precision medicine delivery in patient care and trial development.

e17577 Background: Salivary gland tumors (SGT) represent a rare and heterogeneous group of malignancies. No standard treatment exists in the advanced situation and the prognosis is poor. We here report characteristics and clinical outcomes of patients with SGT discussed at the Charité molecular tumor board (MTB). Methods: Patients with advanced cancer and no curative treatment option were discussed at the Charité MTB. Eligible patients underwent fresh tissue sampling and subsequent whole exome (WES) and RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) and immunohistochemical analyses (EGFR, HER2, AR as well as validation tests) or panel sequencing. Results from molecular testing were discussed at the MTB and patients were followed-up after recommendations were made. Results: 24 patients (median age 56 years, 13 male, 11 female) with advanced SGT were presented at the MTB between 2016 and 2019 (9 adenoidcystic carcinomas, 5 adenocarcinomas, 3 mucoepidermoid, 2 carcinosarcoma, 5 miscellaneous). WES/RNA sequencing was performed on tumor tissue from 16 patients. 2 patients were not included in the sequencing program and WES/RNA-Seq was ongoing for another 4 patients at the time of analysis. For another 2 patients, panel sequencing and IHC analysis, respectively was done. Results from analyses were discussed and a median of 2 recommendations, ranked by priority according to prespecified evidence levels, were made for 17 patients, each. Most commonly proposed treatment options by the MTB were FGFR inhibitors in 6 patients, mTOR or PARP inhibitors in 5 each, EGFR, HDAC inhibitors or antiandrogen therapy in 4, each. Treatments following MTB recommendations were initiated in 8 patients, 1 of which received a second recommended therapy after progression (antiandrogen therapy in 4, EGFR inhibitor in 2, a PDGFR, mTOR and PARP inhibitor in 1, each). A clinical benefit (CR = 1; Mixed Response = 1, SD = 3) was achieved in 5 patients, including a complete response in a patient with a metastatic adenocarcinoma of the parotid gland, treated with antiandrogen therapy. Conclusions: Precision oncology represents a feasible treatment strategy in patients with advanced SGT and shows early evidence of activity in a subset of patients. These results suggest further exploration of personalized therapy in these hard-to-treat tumors.

PURPOSE Precision oncology has transformed the management of advanced cancers through implementation of advanced molecular profiling technologies to identify increasingly defined subsets of patients and match them to appropriate therapy. We report outcomes of a prospective molecular profiling study in a high-volume Asian tertiary cancer center. PATIENTS AND METHODS Patients with advanced cancer were enrolled onto a prospective protocol for genomic profiling, the Individualized Molecular Profiling for Allocation to Clinical Trials Singapore study, at the National Cancer Center Singapore. Primary objective was to identify molecular biomarkers in patient's tumors for allocation to clinical trials. The study commenced in February 2012 and is ongoing, with the results of all patients who underwent multiplex next-generation sequencing (NGS) testing until December 2018 presented here. The results were discussed at a molecular tumor board where recommendations for allocation to biomarker-directed trials or targeted therapies were made. RESULTS One thousand fifteen patients were enrolled with a median age of 58 years (range 20-83 years). Most common tumor types were lung adenocarcinoma (26%), colorectal cancer (15%), and breast cancer (12%). A total of 1,064 NGS assays were performed, on fresh tumor tissue for 369 (35%) and archival tumor tissue for 687 (65%) assays. TP53 (39%) alterations were most common, followed by EGFR (21%), KRAS (14%), and PIK3CA (10%). Of 405 NGS assays with potentially actionable alterations, 111 (27%) were allocated to a clinical trial after molecular tumor board and 20 (4.9%) were enrolled on a molecularly matched clinical trial. Gene fusions were detected in 23 of 311 (7%) patients tested, including rare fusions in new tumor types and known fusions in rare tumors. CONCLUSION Individualized Molecular Profiling for Allocation to Clinical Trials Singapore demonstrates the feasibility of a prospective broad molecular profiling program in an Asian tertiary cancer center, with the ability to develop and adapt to a dynamic landscape of precision oncology.

Recent advancements in molecular testing, the availability of cost-effective technology, and novel approaches to clinical trial design have facilitated the implementation of tumor genome sequencing into standard of care oncology practices. Current models of precision oncology practice include specialized clinics or consultation services based on a molecular tumor board (MTB) approach. MTBs are comprised of interprofessional teams of clinicians and scientists who evaluate tumors at the molecular level to guide patient-specific targeted therapy. The practice of precision oncology utilizing MTB-based models is an emerging approach, transforming precision genomics from a novel concept into clinical practice. This rapid shift in practice from cytotoxic therapy to targeted medicine poses challenges, yet brings exciting opportunities to clinical pharmacists practicing in hematology and oncology. Only a few precision genomics programs in the United States have a strong pharmacy presence with oncology pharmacists serving in leadership roles in research, interpreting genomic sequencing, making treatment recommendations, and facilitating off-label drug procurement. This article describes the experience of the precision medicine clinic at the Indiana University Health Simon Cancer Center, with emphasis on the role of the pharmacist in the precision oncology initiative.

Molecular Tumor Board

Purpose Precision oncology develops and implements evidence-based personalized therapies that are based on specific genetic targets within each tumor. However, a major challenge that remains is the provision of a standardized, up-to-date, and evidenced-based precision medicine initiative across a geographic region. Materials and Methods We developed a statewide molecular tumor board that integrates academic and community oncology practices. The Precision Medicine Molecular Tumor Board (PMMTB) has three components: a biweekly Web-based teleconference tumor board meeting provided as a free clinical service, an observational research registry, and a monthly journal club to establish and revise evidence-based guidelines for off-label therapies. The PMMTB allows for flexible and rapid implementation of treatment, uniformity in practice, and the ability to track outcomes. Results We describe the implementation of the PMMTB and its first year of activity. Seventy-seven patient cases were presented, 48 were enrolled in a registry, and 38 had recommendations and clinical follow-up. The 38 subjects had diverse solid tumors (lung, 45%; GI, 21%; breast, 13%; other, 21%). Of these subjects, targeted therapy was recommended for 32 (84%). Clinical trials were identified for 24 subjects (63%), and nontrial targeted medicines for 16 (42%). Nine subjects (28%) received recommended therapy with a response rate of 17% (one of six) and a clinical benefit rate (partial response + stable disease) of 38% (three of eight). Although clinical trials often were identified, patients rarely enrolled. Conclusion The PMMTB provides a model for a regional molecular tumor board with clinical utility. This work highlights the need for outcome registries and improved access to clinical trials to pragmatically implement precision oncology.

11571 Background: Relapsed/refractory (R/R) non-Hodgkin lymphomas (NHL) have a poor prognosis with limited treatment options. Our expanding knowledge of molecular alterations seen in R/R NHL allows identification of patients that potentially may benefit from a precision medicine approach. However, experience in routine clinical implementation of precision medicine has been limited. Here, we summarize our clinical experience in molecular characterization of RR NHL targeted therapy (TT) using next-generation sequencing (NGS), and selection of targeted therapy (TT) based on molecular profile. Methods: We conducted a prospective study in RR NHL through the Center for Individualized Medicine at Mayo Clinic. Consenting patients underwent NGS using FoundationOne Heme panel from biopsies done at time of relapse. Results of NGS were discussed at the Genomic Tumor Board and recommendations for TT were given based on matching specific molecular alteration(s) with potential agent(s) predicted to be active based on NGS. The agents could include FDA-approved, off-label use and clinical trial therapies. Results: 28 cases were enrolled: 18 aggressive NHL, 10 follicular lymphoma (FL). Molecular alterations were present in all cases. In aggressive B-cell NHL, CDKN2A/B gene cluster alterations were seen in 73% (8/11), while seen in only 1/7 T-cell lymphomas (TCL), and 1/10 FL. TP53 deletions were second most common genomic alterations in DLBCL (57%) and seen in 40% FL. JAK-STAT and ERBB pathways were altered in TCL (2/7 each). IGH-BCl-2 gene rearrangement were common in FL (70%), followed by MLL gene alterations (50%). Targetable mutations were present in 86% (24/28) of cases. A TT was recommended in all 24 cases, but received by 2 patients only. Remaining patients did not due to benefit from current therapy (10/24), ineligibility or lack of clinical trial (7/24) or interim clinical deterioration (5/24). Conclusions: Targetable mutations were identified in most cases of RR NHL with TT recommended for all cases. However, access to TT limits potential clinical benefit of molecular-based matching strategy. More studies are needed to assess impact on clinical outcomes.

3140 Background: Precision oncology is associated with favorable outcomes in selected patients with cancer. Our first IMPACT trial (IMPACT1) demonstrated that in sequential patients with advanced cancer who had tumor molecular testing and participated in phase I clinical trials, matched targeted therapy (MTT) was associated with superior rates of response, progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival compared with those of patients who received non-MTT. Despite the statistical significance for these outcomes, the study was non-randomized. Recognizing that it would be difficult to randomize patients we nonetheless undertook IMPACT2, a phase 2 randomized study to determine whether patients treated on the basis of tumor genomic alterations have longer PFS compared to those whose treatment is not selected on the basis of molecular alteration analysis. Methods: Patients with metastatic cancer undergo a tumor biopsy and genomic profiling. Patients are presented at tumor board and are offered to be randomized between two arms: MTT or non-MTT, when criteria (biomarker present, available clinical trial, eligibility criteria met, insurance approval) are met. In April 2019, we amended the trial to include a “patient-preference” cohort for each arm. Patients who decline randomization are offered choice of arm (ClinicalTrials.gov: NCT02152254). The primary analysis will use both randomized and patient-preference cohorts based on a Bayesian hierarchical model that “borrows” from the patient-preference cohorts to the extent to which its PFS agrees with that in the randomization cohort. Results: The key barriers randomizing patients with actionable molecular alterations are patient-related (advanced, metastatic setting requiring immediate intervening therapy; decline in performance status, organ function; or death); drug-related (FDA-approved drug available; or unavailable MTT against key driver biomarker) or financial (no insurance coverage of MTT; lack of patient resources to participate in trials). As the study spans over a few years, some investigational agents that were considered non-MTT at the time of treatment assignment were later proven to be MTT (e.g., immunotherapeutic agents targeting high tumor mutational burden); and/or were approved by the FDA. Conclusions: Although randomized trials have been considered the gold standard in drug development, such studies in the advanced metastatic setting are complicated. The benefit of Precision Oncology has been exemplified in individual patients who were treated with biomarker-selected therapy. The adaptive design of IMPACT2 enables patient randomization despite the evolving tumor biomarkers and the plethora of investigational drugs. IMPACT2 provides insights for the development of cancer genome-based medicine. Outcomesfor randomized patients are awaited. Clinical trial information: NCT02152254.

129 Background: KRAS and NRAS (RAS) mutations are considered driver mutations in gastrointestinal malignancies such as colorectal and pancreatic cancer. Our institution obtains broad molecular testing (commercial panels with full exon coverage of at least 300 genes) for all stage IV gastrointestinal malignancies that are reviewed at an internal molecular tumor board (MTB). The MTB subjectively felt there was less benefit from comprehensive molecular testing in RAS mutant tumors and wished to quantify this using standardized analysis according to validated guidelines. Methods: We performed a retrospective cohort study of 209 consecutive genomic sequencing results of advanced gastrointestinal malignancies at our institution dating from March 2016 until December 2019. We compared the number of “targetable” mutations in the RAS mutant and wild type (WT) malignancies, as analyzed by an interpretation service according to the Association of Molecular Pathology (AMP) guidelines. A lower AMP score corresponds to a higher level of evidence as a predictive biomarker. We also compared molecular tumor board specific recommendations for each group (excluding recommendations regarding RAS such as EGFR mAbs). Results: There were 134 RAS mutant and 75 RAS WT cases. Alterations with AMP scores of 1A,1B, and 1C were more commonly seen in the RAS WT population 18/75 and 9/134 respectively (24.0% versus 6.7% p-value=0.0004). 39 of 75 cases in RAS WT and 27/134 in RAS mutant (52.0 versus 20.1%, p-value <0.0001) cohort had at least one alteration that was deemed actionable by our institution’s current MTB criteria. Conclusions: Actionable mutations were significantly less common in the RAS mutant versus RAS WT population, and further studies assessing the value of comprehensive genomic testing in RAS mutant gastrointestinal malignancies may be warranted.
