Abstract BACKGROUND Regorafenib (REG), an oral multikinase inhibitor of angiogenic, stromal, and oncogenic receptor tyrosine kinases showed encouraging benefit in recurrent GBM patients enrolled in the randomized, phase 2 REGOMA trial. We investigated the clinical outcome and safety of REG in a real-life population of recurrent glioblastoma patients treated at Veneto Institute of Oncology as off-label use. MATERIAL AND METHODS Patients receiving REG at Veneto Institute of Oncology (Padua, Italy) were entered prospectively on a clinical database. Data were retrospectively analyzed. The primary endpoints of the study were overall survival (OS) and safety. The major inclusion criteria were: histologically confirmed diagnosis of GBM, disease progression as defined by RANO criteria after surgery followed by radiochemotherapy with temozolomide, ECOG PS ≤ 2; PTS with ≥ 2 prior lines of therapy were excluded. According to original schedule, patients received REG 160 mg once daily for the first 3 weeks of each 4-week cycle until disease progression, death, unacceptable toxicity, or consent withdrawal. Kaplan-Meier method was used to estimate the survival curves, RANO criteria for radiological assessment, CTCAE v5.0 for drug related adverse events. RESULTS From February 2018 to September 2020, 54 consecutive patients were treated with REG and enrolled in this study: median age was 56, ECOG PS 0–1 in 91% of patients, MGMTmet in 53%, second surgery at the time of relapse were performed in 30% of enrolled patient, 41% of patients underwent steroids at baseline. At the time of analysis, median follow-up was 11.1 ms, 30 PTS (56%) had died and 50 PTS (93%) had progressed. Median OS was 10.2 ms (95%CI, 6.4–13.9), 12m-OS was 43%; median PFS was 2.3ms (95%CI, 1.3–3.3) and 6m-PFS was 18%. All patients were evaluable for response: disease control rate (DCR) was 46.3%; stable disease was reported in 38.8% and partial response in 7.4%. Age, MGMT status and corticosteroid use at baseline were not statistically significant on multivariate analysis for OS. Grade 3 drug-related adverse events (AEs) occurred in 10 patients (18%) and the most frequent were hand-foot skin reaction, asthenia and increased lipase and transaminases; 1 PT (2%) reported a grade 4 AE (rash maculo-papular). AEs led to REG dose reductions in 37% of patients and, it was permanently discontinued in 5%. No death was considered to be drug-related. CONCLUSION We reported a large, mono-institutional “real world” experience of REG in recurrent glioblastoma patients. Overall, results are close to those reported in REGOMA trial although, we showed a longer OS. Toxicity was moderate and manageable. Encouraging clinical benefits of REG in recurrent GBM population were confirmed.

Abstract INTRODUCTION Regorafenib (REG), an oral multikinase inhibitor, showed benefit in recurrent GBM (recGBM) patients in the REGOMA trial. We investigated the clinical outcome and safety of REG in a real-life population of recGBM patients treated at Veneto Institute of Oncology as off-label use. MATERIAL AND METHODS Patients receiving REG were entered prospectively on a clinical database. Data were retrospectively analyzed. The primary endpoints were overall survival (OS) and safety. The major inclusion criteria were: histologically confirmed diagnosis of GBM, disease progression by RANO criteria after Stupp protocol, ECOG PS ≤ 2. Patients received REG 160 mg per day for the first 3 weeks in a 4-week cycle. Kaplan-Meier method was used to estimate the survival, RANO criteria for radiological assessment, CTCAE v5.0 for drug related adverse events. RESULTS 54 patients were enrolled: median age was 56, ECOG PS 0-1 in 91%, MGMTmet in 53%, second surgery at the time of relapse in 30%. Median follow-up was 11.1ms, 30 PTS (56%) had died and 50 PTS (93%) had progressed. MedianOS was 10.2 ms (95%CI, 6.4-13.9), 12m-OS was 43%; medianPFS was 2.3 ms (95%CI, 1.3-3.3) and 6m-PFS was 18%. Disease control rate (DCR) was 46.3%; stable disease was reported in 38.8% and partial response in 7.4%. Age, MGMT and corticosteroid use at baseline were not statistically significant on multivariate analysis for OS. Grade 3 drug-related adverse events (AEs) occurred in 10 patients (18%) and the most frequent were hand-foot skin reaction, asthenia and increased lipase and transaminases; 1 PT(2%) reported a grade 4 AE (rash maculo-papular). AEs led to REG dose reductions in 37% of patients and, it was permanently discontinued in 5%. CONCLUSIONS We reported a “real-world” experience of REG in recGBM patients. Results are close to those reported in REGOMA trial; we showed a longer OS. Toxicity was manageable. Encouraging clinical benefits of REG in recGBM population were confirmed.

8043 Background: MO19390 (SAiL) is a single-arm, multicenter, international trial evaluating the safety and efficacy of first-line Bv in combination with a range of chemotherapy regimens in over 2,000 patients (pts). Methods: Primary endpoint was safety; secondary endpoints included time to disease progression (TTP) and overall survival (OS). Pts with untreated locally advanced, metastatic or recurrent non-squamous NSCLC (ECOG PS 0–2) received Bv (7.5 or 15mg/kg) with standard chemotherapy for up to six cycles, then non-progressors proceeded to receive Bv until disease progression. Results: This analysis (data cut-off July 2008) was based on 2,008 pts with a median age of 59. Pts (%) were: male 60.1; stage IIIB/IV 19.5/80.5 (no data 3 pts); adenocarcinoma/large cell/other 85.8/7.1/7.1; ECOG PS 0/1/2 38.1/56.1/5.8. Pts received a median of 6 Bv cycles and 4 chemotherapy cycles. 26.7% of pts experienced grade ≥3 serious adverse events (SAEs); 8.3% of pts experienced grade ≥3 SAEs related to Bv. Adverse events (AEs) of special interest (all grades) included bleeding (27.6%), hypertension (19.3%), proteinuria (14.6%), thromboembolism (8.6%), CHF (2.9%) and GI perforation (1.2%). The incidence of AEs of special interest (all grades) was comparable across the various types of chemotherapy regimens: carboplatin doublets (50.6%)/cisplatin doublets (49.9%)/non-platinum doublets (41.7%)/monotherapy (37.5%). No new safety signals were reported. Trial data were not deemed mature enough to provide efficacy results. Conclusions: SAiL confirms that Bv-based therapy has a well-established and manageable safety profile. Clinical outcomes obtained in this real-life population are consistent with those seen in the pivotal trials of bevacizumab (Avastin) in NSCLC (E4599 and AVAiL), and compare favorably with historical data. Updated efficacy results for 2,147 pts will be presented, based upon an additional 5 months’ follow-up. [Table: see text]

Background. Hepatocellular carcinoma is a relevant cause of mortality worldwide, mainly among patients who have a prior liver disease. In spite of clear recommendations regarding surveillance and screening methods, most patients are still diagnosed only when they are no longer candidates to curative treatment modalities, while others do not achieve the goals of such treatments, thus increasing the need of anticancer drugs. Moreover, when cirrhotic patients begin to receive these drugs, many types of adverse events are seen as a reason to withdrawal, even when there are findings suggesting a good response to the treatment. Case Summary. This case report is about a cirrhotic patient who received many types of treatment, from surgery and chemoembolization during early stages to first- and second-line systemic therapy when the disease turned to be advanced. Since he had no signs of liver dysfunction and suffered tumor progression during sorafenib treatment, regorafenib was initiated. The main findings that make this case important are the adverse events after taking this second-line agent, which would certainly be considered unacceptable and would lead to the drug withdrawal. The reasons why regorafenib was maintained are explained based on clinical and imaging findings, showing how this decision led to an excellent response. Conclusions. The knowledge of the main adverse events described in the pilot clinical trials can avoid unnecessary withdrawal of regorafenib. In addition, some clinical and imaging findings can be deemed as predictors of good response to tyrosine kinase inhibitors.

Abstract BACKGROUND The EMulate Therapeutics Voyager system is an investigational non-sterile, non-invasive, non-thermal, non-ionizing, portable, home-use medical device that uses a specific, localized ultra-low radio frequency energy (ulRFE®) cognate for the treatment of brain cancer. METHODS This ongoing, open-label, multi-center study (NAT-101) is being conducted in the US and Australia in patients with recurrent GBM. There are 3 treatment groups: 32 patients treated with Voyager alone, 43 patients treated with Voyager + Investigator’s choice of anti-cancer therapy, and 21 patients treated with Voyager+lomustine+/-bevacizumab. The objective of the study is to assess if the Voyager is a safe and feasible treatment for recurrent GBM. The primary outcome measure is safety, assessed by the incidence and evaluation of adverse events (AEs) associated with the Voyager. The secondary outcome measures are progression-free survival and overall survival. RESULTS Enrollment is closed, and long-term treatment and follow-up is ongoing. 96 patients were enrolled and treated. 82 patients reported at least one AE, and 18 AEs were assessed as device-related (mild-moderate; 12 headache, 2 vomiting, 1 nausea, 1 confusion, 1 insomnia, and 1 skin irritation). 31 patients reported at least one serious AE, and none were assessed as device-related. 33% of patients treated with Voyager alone and 36% of patients treated with Voyager + chemotherapy were progression-free after 6 months. 58% of patients treated with Voyager alone and 60% of patients treated with Voyager + chemotherapy remained alive after 6 months; median overall survival is 7 months (95% CI=4.4±14.3) in patients treated with Voyager alone and 10 months (95% CI=6.7±11.5) in patients treated with Voyager + chemotherapy. CONCLUSIONS The Voyager system appears to be safe and feasible for the treatment of recurrent GBM. Given that therapy is delivered non-invasively and no device-related serious adverse events were reported, further prospective study of the investigational device is planned.

14035 Background: Telatinib (BAY 57–9352) inhibits VEGFR-2 and VEGFR-3 tyrosine kinases, and PDGFR-β and c-Kit. Preclinical data suggests that targeting VEGFR signaling increases antitumor activity. Methods: This trial investigated the safety, pharmacokinetics (PK), and tumor efficacy of telatinib combined with docetaxel (D). D was administered at a fixed dose of 75mg/m2 on day 1 of 21-day cycles. Telatinib was administered orally, twice daily (bid) from day 3 of Cycle 1 and onwards, thereafter continuously. Dosing of telatinib commenced at 600mg bid (cohort 1, n=6) and increased to 900mg bid (cohort 2, n=7). PK in Cycle 1 were determined on day 1 (D) and day 21 (telatinib). In Cycle 2 comparative PK profiles for both telatinib and D were sampled on days 1–3. Results: Thirteen patients (pts) with advanced solid tumors were enrolled (9M/4F; median age: 56 [range: 34–69]; ECOG PS 0/1: 3/10). A total of 69 cycles have been completed (range,1–10). Treatment-emergent adverse events of CTCAE =3 (NCI-CTC v3.0) were neutropenia (n=11, 79%), fever (n=2, 15%), and fatigue (n=2, 11%). Adverse events of CTC =3 occuring in two pts was febrile neutropenia. Others occurring in only one patient were; hypertension, ALT increase, dehydration, and reversible symptomatic pneumonitis. Study treatment-related adverse events leading to a dose reduction or interruption were neutropenia (n=5, 38%), hypertension (n=1), ALT increase (n=1), and fatigue (n=1). Two pts with prostate ca and 1 with cervical ca had a confirmed partial response. Five pts (1 NSCLC, 1 esophageal ca, 1 renal cell ca and 2 prostate ca) had stable disease for =4 cycles. Mean AUC of D increased by 48% in cohort 1, but only by 16% in cohort 2. Thus, PK data to date do not indicate a clear clinically relevant interaction between telatinib and D. Conclusions: The combination of telatinib and D was tolerated without reaching the toxic dose at telatinib 900mg bid and D 75mg/m2. This combination has demonstrated promising antitumor activity. An extension of the cohort at 900mg bid with 75mg/m2 D is being evaluated to gain further safety and PK data. No significant financial relationships to disclose.

629 Background: Pazopanib (PZP), has been granted for advanced or metastatic RCC. In addition to pivotal clinical trials, real-world evidence (RWE) is required to evaluate effectiveness and safety in clinical routine practices. Methods: APOLON is a non-interventional, multicentric prospective study to assess PZP Progression-Free Survival (PFS) (8-month PFS rate as primary endpoint), Overall Survival (OS), Objective Response Rate (ORR), tolerability, subsequent post-pazopanib therapy sequences. It is conducted in France with 55 sites (hospital or private practitioners) in patients with mRCC, naïve to anti-VEGF therapy, who initiated PZP treatment. Data are collected at baseline and at 1, 2-3, 6, 9, 12, 18, 24, 30, 36 months (mo). Patients (n= 218) were recruited from Nov 2017 to Jan 2019. This interim analysis presents results 6 months after last patient was enrolled. Results: Patients were 71,1% males, with a median age of 69.6 years. They had clear-cell type RCC for 97.7% with a favourable (26.4%), intermediate (52.9%) or poor (20.7%) IMDC risk score. Comorbidities were: hypertension (75.1%), diabetes (26%), arterial disorders (20.1%), other pathologies (47.3%); 81.7% received co-medications. ECOG-PS was 0 (42.9%), 1 (40%), 2 (15.7%), Metastases were mainly located in lungs (62.8%), bones (28.9%), mediastinal (17.9%)/abdominal (17%) lymph nodes, glands (pancreas, thyroid, adrenals) (17.4%). Of them, 56% had an history of partial/total nephrectomy, 28.1% previous local treatments for metastases. Median PFS, assessed by investigator, was 11.3 mo (95%CI: 8.7-13), with an 8-mo PFS rate at 62.9%. ORR was 47.2% and 1-year OS rate was 71.2%. Treatment-related serious adverse events were reported in 17.3% of patients. No new safety signal was identified. After a median follow-up of 8.8 mo, of the 121 patients with discontinuation, 74 received post-PZP lines comprising firstly nivolumab (67.6%), cabozantinib (16.2%), sunitinib (10.8%), other (5.6%). Conclusions: APOLON study represents real-life population including elderly and frail patients with clinically meaningful ORR and PFS with PZP. Reported adverse events were consistent with known safety PZP profile.

Abstract Background: The fully human IgG4 anti-PD-1 monoclonal antibody, nivolumab, has shown to be highly efficacious in relapsed and refractory (RR) classical Hodgkin lymphoma (cHL). Initial results of a single-arm nivolumab monotherapy in heavily pretreated young adults with RR cHL, previously treated with autologous hematopoetic stem cell transplantation (autoSCT) and brentuximab vedotin are promising. However, demonstrating similar results in real-life experience in patients not on Pharma clinical studies are of major clinical importance. Aim: The aim of the current study was to evaluate the efficacy and safety of nivolumab in previously heavily pretreated patients with RR cHL not on Pharma clinical studies. Methods: The records of patients with RR cHL who were treated with nivolumab in seven medical centers were reviewed. The regimen consisted of nivolumab 3 mg/kg once every 2 weeks until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Results: Between May 2015 and April 2016, 30 patients with RR cHL received nivolumab monotherapy. The median age was 35 years (range: 21 to 88). Patients were extremely heavily pretreated with median of 6 prior therapies (range: 3 to 11); 73% of them received ≥ 5 lines of therapy. Specifically, 29/30 (97%) received ABVD, 7/30 (23%) escBEACOPP, 20/30 (67%) gemcitabine based regimens, 30/30 (100%) brentuximab vedotin, 8/30 (27%) bendamustine, 3/30 (10%) lenalidomide, 28/30 (93%) other combinations of chemotherapy and 22/30 (73%) radiotherapy. Twenty patients (67%) previously underwent autoHSCT and 4/30 (13%) allogeneic transplantation (alloSCT), two before and two after receiving nivolumab. Median number of nivolumab doses received was 8 (range 1 to 29). Twenty three patients (77%) are still on treatment. Seven patients (23%) discontinued therapy due to disease progression 3/30 (10%), adverse events 2/30 (7%) and referral to alloSCT 2/30 (7%). Overall response rate among 25 evaluable patients was 76%, complete response (CR) - 7/25 (28%), partial response - 12/25 (48%), stable disease - 3/25 (12%) and only 3/25 (12%) progressed, one of them with cHL type of Richter's transformation. Two patients underwent alloSCT in remission following nivolumab treatment. One patient was transplanted from a matched sibling donor and the second patient from a T replete haploidentical donor with post transplantation cyclophosphamide as anti-graft versus host disease prophylaxis. Both patients are in CR, ten and three months post transplantation, respectively. The median overall survival (OS) and progression free survival (PFS) for the cohort were not reached (Figure 1). At 24 weeks the PFS was 74%. Adverse events reported in 9/30 patients (30%) were usually mild. Severe nivolumab related adverse events in 3/30 (10%) included immune related pneumonitis, myelitis and uveitis. No treatment related death occurred. Conclusions: The check point inhibitor nivolumab is a novel therapy for RR cHL patients, previously with unmet need following relapse or refractory to autoHSCT and brentuximab vedotin. Our real life experience confirms and highlights the efficacy and safety of nivolumab in very heavily pretreated young and elderly patients with cHL eligible as well as ineligible for autologous HSCT.

733 Background: Few data are available on outcome of clinical practice unselected patients (pts) with mCRC. Methods: We retrospectively collected data of pts with mCRC followed at our Institution from January 2010 to December 2013 evaluating the clinical characteristics, treatments and survival outcomes. Results: A total of 584 pts were evaluated, 461 were followed at our Center while 123 were seen for a second opinion. Median age was 66 ys (25-94), 59% were male, 63% had an ECOG PS = 0 while 11% ≥2. 33% had right colon primary, 68% synchronous metastatic (mts) disease and 70% a single mts site. 81% underwent surgery on primary and 41% on metastases. 51% were RAS mutated (mut) and 5% BRAF mut. 57 pts didn't receive any systemic treatment, 33 due to frail clinical conditions and 24 due to radical surgical approach (R0). Among 404 treated pts, 239 received all 3 available cytotoxic agents (oxaliplatin, irinotecan, 5FU), 324 bevacizumab and 98 anti-EGFR; 153 (38%) were enrolled in clinical trials. Median overall survival (OS) was 27.6 months (mo) for the entire mCRC population, 3.7 mo for untreated frail pts, 28.7 mo for treated pts while it is still not reached for untreated R0 pts. OS was significantly longer for pts receiving first line combination therapy (29 vs 17 mo, p < 0.01) while a poor prognosis was confirmed for BRAF mut pts (p < 0.001). In a multivariate analysis age < 70, PS 0 and R0 surgery on mts disease showed a positive prognostic impact on OS while a right site of primary was a negative predictor of outcome. At logistic regression older age, low PS and peritoneal disease negatively affected the possibility to receive all 3 active drugs. Conclusions: Despite being an unselected population our outcomes are comparable with results of clinical trials in the corresponding period. We feel that such positive evidence derives from a personalization of treatment and a multidisciplinary approach to mts disease.
