Abstract BACKGROUND Brain metastases (BM) are the most common intracranial tumor with limited treatment options following the progression after WBRT. METHODS This open label phase 2 study for patients have progressed following WBRT enrolled participants who received bevacizumab 10 mg/kg intravenously every two weeks until CNS disease progression (one cycle=4 weeks). The primary endpoint was objective radiographic tumor response as defined by modified Response Assessment in Neuro-oncology (RANO) criteria. Secondary endpoints included safety, progression free survival (PFS), time to response, duration of response, overall survival (OS), and quality of life (QOL) as measured by FACT-G and FACT-Br. RESULTS A total of 27 patients were registered of which 24 were evaluable for ORR (3 came off study prior to first follow up MRI brain). Median age was 53 (range 27–73), median number of cycles was 5.5 (range 1–20) with a median follow up of 8.7 months (range 2.4–47.9mo). Of the 24 evaluable patients, 6 showed radiographic response (Partial response=6, stable disease=16, progressive disease=2, 81% (22/24) experienced clinical benefit). The 6 month PFS: 46% (95% CI: 25% - 67%) and median PFS was 5.3 months. Median OS was 9.5 months (95% confidence interval 6.3m – 15.0m). For the patients who completed sequential QOL assessments, there no decline in QOL seen secondary to treatment and there was a non statistically significant improvement seen in the FACT-Br questionnaire. Overall, treatment was well tolerated with 3 grade 3 adverse events seen: hypertension (n=3), headache (n=1) and thrombotic event (n=1). CONCLUSION For this pretreated BM population with historically poor clinical outcome and survival, we showed disease response with bevacizumab therapy, drug tolerability and improved survival as compared to historical controls. While larger studies are needed to confirm, bevacizumab therapy could be a viable option for solid tumor BM patients who experience progression following WBRT.

2070 Background: Brain metastases (BM) are the most common intracranial malignancy with overall a poor prognosis estimated at approximately 4 months from time of initial diagnosis for treated patients, and even lower after failing WBRT after which treatment options have been limited and outcomes poor. Methods: This is an open label phase 2 study where patients who have previously failed WBRT received bevacizumab at a dose of 10 mg/kg intravenously every two weeks until CNS disease progression with one cycle being defined as 4 weeks. The primary endpoint was objective radiographic tumor response as defined by modified Response Assessment in Neuro-oncology (RANO) criteria. Secondary endpoints included progression free survival (PFS) at 6 months, time to progression, time to response, duration of response, overall survival (OS), quality of life (QOL) as measured by the FACT-G and FACT-Br and safety. Results: A total of 27 patients were consented and registered to study of which 24 were evaluable for ORR (3 came off study prior to first follow up MRI brain). Medianage was 53 (range 27-73), median number of cycles was 5.5 (range 1-20) with a median follow up of 8.7 months (range 2.4-47.9mo). Of the 24evaluable patients, there were 6 Partial response, 16 stable disease and 2progressive disease. The 6 month PFS: 46% (95% CI: 25% - 67%) and median PFS was 5.3 months. Median OS was 9.5 months (95% confidence interval 6.3m – 15.0m). For the patients who completed sequential QOL assessments, there was no significant decline in QOL but there was a nonsignificant improvement in the FACT-Br scores. Overall, treatment was well tolerated with 3grade 3 adverse events seen: hypertension (n = 3), headache (n = 1) and thrombotic event (n = 1). Conclusions: For this WBRT failure BM population, we were able to show a 25% disease response to bevacizumab therapy along with good drug tolerability and no noted central nervous system bleeding. Improved survival as compared to historical controls was seen 9.5 m. Of the 24 evaluable patients, 81% (22/24) experienced clinical benefit defined as stable disease or better. Bevacizumab therapy could be a viable option for solid tumor BM patients who experience progression following WBRT, however a larger trial is required to confirm this data. Clinical trial information: NCT01898130.

e16006 Background: FTD/TPI, an antimetabolite, is approved for treatment of refractory mGEC. This study sought to determine whether the combination of FTD/TPI with IRI (“TASIRI”) was safe and effective in mGEC previously treated with FP. Methods: This investigator‐initiated, multicenter, open‐label, single-dose level, single‐arm phase 1b study enrolled pts with mGEC previously treated with at least one line of FP containing regimen. FTD/TPI was given at 25 mg/m2 twice daily on days 1 to 5 with 180 mg/m2 IRI on day 1 of a 14‐day cycle. The primary endpoint was progression-free survival at six months (mo) (PFS-6). The aim was to show an improvement of PFS-6 from 15% to at least 30% based on historical controls. Results: At the time of data-cutoff (03Feb2021), 23 pts were screened and ultimately 20 pts were treated. The study met its primary endpoint. With a median follow-up of 9.8 mo (range 0.7 – 17), 8 pts are still on treatment and 4 pts have died. PFS-6 is 53.9% (lower limit of 95% CI: 28%). Median PFS and overall survival are 6.9 mo and not reached, respectively. At the time of data-cutoff, data were available for 13 pts with measurable disease by RECIST criteria and at least 1 on-treatment scan. Of those, 11 had stable disease and 2 had progressive disease as best response (5 pts had tumor shrinkage < 30%), therefore the disease control rate was 84.6%. The most common any grade (G) treatment related adverse events (TRAE) were nausea (n = 14, 70%), diarrhea (n = 9, 45%), and fatigue (n = 8, 40%). G3-4 TRAE in > 5% of pts were anemia (17%) and neutropenia (9%). 2 serious TRAE were reported: G4 febrile neutropenia (n = 1) and G3 hypotension (n = 1). There was no G5 TRAE. Conclusions: The combination of TASIRI showed encouraging clinical activity with a meaningful improvement in PFS-6 compared to historic controls. TASIRI was well tolerated and no new safety signals were seen. TASIRI warrants further investigation for patients with refractory mGEC and limited treatment options. Updated results with longer follow-up will be presented at the meeting. Clinical trial information: NCT04074343.

3551 Background: KRAS wt mCRC pts progressing on chemotherapy and anti-EGFR mAbs have limited treatment options. Sym004 is a first-in-class drug mixture of two mAbs targeting non-overlapping epitopes on the EGFR, causing its internalization and degradation. With this unique mechanism of action, Sym004 overcomes acquired resistance to anti-EGFR mAbs in preclinical studies. Methods: Open-label, multicenter trial assessing safety (primary endpoint) and efficacy of 2 dose levels of Sym004 in KRAS wt mCRC pts with prior clinical benefit to anti-EGFR mAbs and subsequent progression during or within 6 months after treatment cessation. Sym004 was administered until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Tumor responses were evaluated centrally according to RECIST criteria. Paired skin and tumor biopsies were obtained at baseline and week 4. Results: In total, 42 pts were enrolled at 9 mg/kg (13) and 12 mg/kg (29). Median age was 66 years and median number of prior treatment lines 3. Central radiology review was performed in 12/13 (92%) pts at 9 mg/kg and 27/29 (93%) pts at 12 mg/kg. Tumor shrinkage > 10% was documented in 4/12 (33%) pts at 9 mg/kg, with partial response (PR) in 1/12 (8%) and stable disease (SD) in 9/12 (75%). At 12 mg/kg, 7/27 (26%) pts had > 10% tumor shrinkage, with PR in 3/27 (11%) and SD in 15/27 (56%). Median progression-free survival was 13.6 weeks (95% CI: 5.3-23) and 13.7 weeks (95% CI: 5.9-18.6), respectively. Duration of response for pts with PR was 5.6-17.6 weeks. Grade 3 or higher toxicity included skin rash in 26/42 (62%), hypomagnesemia in 16/42 (38%) and diarrhea in 2/42 (8%). Adverse events were manageable with dose reduction and supportive medication. There were no indications of immunogenicity. Pharmacodynamic analysis in serial tumor samples showed profound down-regulation of EGFR and reduction in proliferation marker Ki67. Conclusions: Sym004 at weekly doses of 9 and 12 mg/kg showed significant clinical activity in anti-EGFR treatment-refractory KRAS wt mCRC pts, clearly demonstrating proof-of-concept. Serial biopsies confirmed its mechanism of action. No unexpected adverse events were observed. Clinical trial information: NCT01117428.

8588 Background: MM-002 is a randomized, open-label, multicenter phase II trial evaluating the safety and efficacy of POM with or without LoDEX in advanced RRMM pts. Methods: Pts who had received ≥ 2 prior therapies, including lenalidomide (LEN) and bortezomib (BORT), and were refractory to their last treatment were randomized to POM+LoDEX (POM 4 mg/day, days 1–21 of a 28-day cycle; LoDEX 40 mg/week) or POM alone. End points included progression-free survival (PFS), response rate (according to EBMT criteria and investigator assessment), response duration, overall survival (OS), and safety. The efficacy outcomes are based on the intent-to-treat population (POM+LoDEX, n = 113; POM, n = 108). Results: The median number of prior therapies in each group was 5 (range 1–13). In the POM+LoDEX arm, 30 (27%) pts had high-risk cytogenetics, including del(17p13) and/or t(4p16/14q32). The overall response rate (≥ partial response) was 34% and 15% with POM+LoDEX and POM, respectively, with a median duration of 8.3 (95% CI: 5.8–10.1) and 8.8 (95% CI: 5.5–11.4) mos, respectively. At least minimal response was observed in 45% and 31% of pts, respectively. Median PFS was 4.6 (95% CI: 3.6–5.5) and 2.6 (95% CI: 1.9–2.8) mos with POM+LoDEX and POM, respectively, with a median follow-up of 16.0 and 12.2 mos. Median OS was 16.5 (95% CI: 12.4–18.5) and 13.6 (95% CI: 9.6–18.1) mos, respectively. The most common treatment emergent Gr 3/4 adverse events (AEs) reported in the safety population (n = 219) were neutropenia (44%), anemia (23%), thrombocytopenia (21%), and pneumonia (18%); there were no reports of Gr 3/4 peripheral neuropathy. The incidence of deep-vein thrombosis was low (2%). AEs were managed through dose reductions or interruptions, and supportive care with G-CSF (52%), RBC transfusions (47%), and platelet transfusions (17%). Discontinuations due to AEs were 10%. Conclusions: POM with or without LoDEX is clinically effective and generally well tolerated in RRMM pts who have received multiple prior treatments, including LEN and BORT. AEs were predictable and manageable. Updated data will be presented at the meeting. Clinical trial information: NCT00833833.

Abstract BACKGROUND New treatment modalities are needed for recurrent glioblastoma (rGBM). Selinexor is a novel, oral selective inhibitor of nuclear export which forces nuclear retention of tumor suppressor proteins including p53 and p27, leading to apoptosis. We previously reported interim results showing tolerability, preliminary efficacy, and blood-brain barrier penetration in a surgical cohort (N=8). We now report updated results following completion of accrual to non-surgical cohorts (N=68). MATERIALS AND METHODS This is an open-label, multicenter, phase 2 study of selinexor monotherapy. Patients (pts) not undergoing surgery for measurable rGBM per response assessment neuro-oncology criteria (RANO) were enrolled in one of 3 arms encompassing different dosing schedules of selinexor (50 mg/m2 [~ 85 mg] BIW, 60 mg BIW, and 80 mg QW). Treatment was continuous, although cycles were defined as 28 days and response was assessed every other cycle by MRI. Prior treatment with radiotherapy and temozolomide was required and prior bevacizumab was exclusionary. The primary endpoint was 6-month progression free survival (6mPFS) rate, calculated by the Kaplan-Meier method. RESULTS 76 pts were enrolled; 24, 14 and 30 pts on doses of ~85 mg BIW, 60 mg BIW, and 80 mg QW, respectively. Median age was 56 years (range 21–78). Median number of prior treatments was 2 (range 1–7) At the end of the 6 cycles, 30.2% pts on 80 mg QW were free from progression. The 6mPFS rate on 80 mg QW was 18.9%. Best RANO-defined responses (assessed locally) among 26 evaluable pts on 80 mg QW included 1 complete response, 2 partial responses, 7 stable disease, and 16 with progressive disease. Complete and partial responses were durable: the complete and a partial responder remain on selinexor for 393 and 1093 days respectively, as of the cut-off date. Median duration of response was 10.8 months. The most common related adverse events (all grades) in pts on ~85 mg BIW/60 mg BIW/80 mg QW were nausea (42%/64%/63%), leukopenia (38%/7%/43%), fatigue (71%/71%/47%), neutropenia (29%/14%/33%), decreased appetite (46%/71%/27%), and thrombocytopenia (67%/29%/23%). CONCLUSION Selinexor demonstrated efficacy, with durable responses and disease stabilization in rGBM. Based on the favorable efficacy and safety profile, selinexor at a dose of 80 mg QW is recommended for further development in rGBM.

e20020 Background: Exportin 1 (XPO1) mediates the nuclear export and functional inactivation of tumor suppressor proteins, is required for MM growth, is associated with poor prognosis in MM and mediates resistance to standard MM therapies. Selinexor (SEL) is a first-in-class, oral selective inhibitor of nuclear export (SINE) compound approved in combination with dexamethasone (dex) ± bortezomib for patients (pts) with previously treated MM. Once MM becomes refractory to αCD38 mAb, pts have limited effective treatment options and poor prognosis. Overall response rate (ORR) to the first regimen after refractoriness to an αCD38 mAb is 31%, median progression-free survival (mPFS) is 3.4 months (m), and median overall survival (mOS) is 8.6 m. The doublet SEL-dex (Xd) has shown ORR ̃26% in triple-class (IMID, PI, αCD38 mAb) refractory MM; SEL-based triplets could be more effective in this population. Methods: STOMP (Selinexor and Backbone Treatments of Multiple Myeloma Patients) is a multi-arm, open-label, Phase 1b/2 study evaluating SEL in various triplet combinations. Here, we retrospectively analyzed the efficacy and safety of SEL-containing triplets in pts previously treated with αCD38 mAbs. Pts received SEL-dex (Xd) plus pomalidomide (XPd, n = 19), bortezomib (XVd, n = 4), lenalidomide (XRd, n = 4), daratumumab (XDd, n = 2) or carfilzomib (XKd, n = 18). ORR, mOS, mPFS and adverse events (AEs) were analyzed. Results: Among the 47 pts, median age 64 yrs, female 53%, median time from diagnosis 5.1 yrs, median number of prior regimens 5 (range, 2–11). Prior daratumumab (96%), isatuximab (4%); 96% had MM refractory to aCD38 mAb, 81% had triple-class refractory MM, 74% and 47% were quad- and penta-exposed, 43% and 15% had quad- and penta-refractory MM. αCD38 mAb was included in the immediate prior regimen of 57% of pts and median duration from end of most recent aCD38 mAb therapy to first dose of study treatment was 6.9 weeks (range, 2.6-114.9). ORR was 51% among the 45 evaluable pts, 59% in the XPd arm (n = 17; 2 pts were not efficacy evaluable) and 67% in the XKd arm. ORR was 47% (9/19) among pts with quad-refractory MM and evaluable efficacy. Among all evaluable pts mPFS was 8.8 m (95% CI: 4.9, NE) and mOS was 20.4 m (95% CI: 9.6, NE). Among the 25 pts with αCD38 mAb in their immediate prior regimen, efficacy was similar to that regimen: ORR 52% vs. 45%, mPFS 8.8 vs. 9.3 m. The most common treatment emergent AEs were nausea (72%), anemia (64%), thrombocytopenia (60%), fatigue (57%), which were managed with standard supportive care and dose modifications. Conclusions: SEL-containing triplets in pts with MM previously treated with αCD38 mAbs, most of whom had triple-class refractory MM, exhibit tolerability and comparable effectiveness to their most recent αCD38 mAb-containing regimens. Compared to historical control, mOS was much higher among these patients. Further investigation is warranted. Clinical trial information: NCT02343042.

354 Background: Patients (pts) with mUC who progress after platinum (PLT)-based chemotherapy and immune checkpoint inhibitor (CPI) therapy have poor outcomes and limited treatment options. Sacituzumab govitecan (SG) is a novel antibody-drug conjugate. It consists of a monoclonal antibody targeting Trop-2, an epithelial cell surface antigen overexpressed in UC, conjugated to the active metabolite of irinotecan (SN38). Methods: We performed a phase I/II basket study in pts with advanced solid tumors receiving intravenous SG administered on day 1 and 8 of 21-day cycles, until progression or unacceptable toxicity. CT/MRI scans were obtained at 8-week intervals for response assessment. We evaluated pts with mUC who progressed after ≥1 prior systemic therapy and were treated with SG at the 10 mg/kg dose level. Endpoints included safety, objective response rate (ORR) by RECIST 1.1, clinical benefit rate (CBR; complete response [CR], partial response [PR], or else SD ≥6-mo), and Kaplan-Meier estimated duration of response (DOR), progression-free survival (PFS), and overall survival (OS). Results: 45 pts (41M/4F; median age 67, range 49-90; ECOG 0/1: 31%/69%) received a median of 2 (range: 1-6) prior treatment lines, including PLT-based chemotherapy (95%) and CPI (38%). 33 had visceral metastases involving liver (n=15), lung (n=27), and other organs (n=5). The ORR was 31% (14/45), with 2 CR and 12 PR. In pts with visceral involvement, the ORR was 27% (9/33). The ORR in CPI-treated pts was 23% (4/17). The median DOR was 12.6 mo (2 pts continuing >2 y), and the CBR was 47% (21/45). Median PFS and OS were 7.3 mo and 18.9 mo, respectively. The AE profile was consistent with prior reports. Grade ≥3 AEs in ≥5% of pts were neutropenia/neutrophil count decreased (38%), anemia (11%), hypophosphatemia (11%), diarrhea (9%), fatigue (9%), and febrile neutropenia (7%). Conclusions: SG demonstrated clinical activity in pts with relapsed/refractory mUC, including CPI-treated pts and pts with visceral disease. A single-arm, open-label, global phase 2 trial is underway to evaluate antitumor activity and safety of SG in advanced UC.(TROPHY-U-01; NCT03547973). Clinical trial information: NCT03547973.

4117 Background: Patients (pts) with advanced CCA who progressed on or after first line chemotherapy have no approved treatment options. Fibroblast growth factor receptor (FGFR) gene alterations are observed in many tumor types including 14-17% in CCA. Erdafitinib, an orally bioavailable, selective pan-FGFR kinase inhibitor, has shown clinical activity against solid tumors with FGFR alterations. Methods: LUC2001 is an open-label, multicenter, Ph2a study in advanced CCA pts with FGFR alterations (FoundationOne), who progressed after ≥ 1 prior treatment. The primary endpoint is objective response rate (ORR; RECIST 1.1). The secondary endpoints are disease control rate (DCR), progression free survival (PFS), duration of response (DOR), safety and pharmacokinetics (PK). Disease is evaluated every 8 weeks until disease progression (PD). Results: As of 3 Dec 2018, 222 CCA pts were molecularly screened; 34 had FGFR alterations, of whom 14 (8 FGFR2 fusion, 3 FGFR2 mutation, 1 FGFR3 fusion, 2 FGFR3 mutation) were dosed 8 mg once daily with up titration option. Median age was 51.5 years. 13/14 and 12/14 pts had prior platinum or gemcitabine based therapy respectively, 7/14 pts got re-treated with platinum or gemcitabine based therapy, and 9/14 pts had ≥2 prior lines of therapy. Median number of treatment cycles was 5.0 (range: 1; 22) and treatment duration was 4.83 (range: 0.5; 20.3) months. In 12 evaluable pts, there were 6 confirmed partial response (PR), 4 stable disease (SD) and 2 PD; ORR (CR+PR) was 6/12 (50.0%), DCR (CR+PR+uCR+uPR+SD) was 10/12 (83.3%); median DOR was 6.83 months (95% CI: 3.65; 12.16); median PFS was 5.59 months (95% CI: 1.87, 13.67). In 10 evaluable FGFR2+ pts, ORR was 6/10 (60.0%); DCR was 10/10(100%); median PFS was 12.35 months (95% CI: 3.15, 19.38). The most common TEAEs ( > 30%) were hyperphosphatemia, dry mouth, stomatitis, and dry skin. 9 pts had ≥ Grade 3 AEs (8 Grade 3,1 Grade 5), of which 7 drug related. TEAE led to treatment 1 discontinuation, 6 dose reductions and 1 death (not drug related). The results of PK and PK/PD relationship were consistent with other erdafitinib studies in different ethnic background pts. Conclusions: Asian advanced CCA pts with FGFR alterations treated with erdafitinib had encouraging efficacy and acceptable safety profile similar to experience in other tumor types and populations. Clinical trial information: NCT02699606.

Bevacizumab Treatment

Abstract Background Salvage treatment for recurrent brain metastases (BM) of solid cancers is challenging due to the high symptomatic burden and the limited local treatment options. Methods Patients with recurrent BM with no option for further local therapies were retrospectively identified from BM databases. Bevacizumab-based treatment was initiated as a salvage treatment. Radiological imaging before and after bevacizumab-based treatment was reevaluated for treatment response using the Response Assessment in Neuro-Oncology (RANO) BM criteria. Results Twenty-two patients (36.4% male) with recurrent BM from breast cancer (40.9%), colorectal cancer (31.8%), or lung cancer (27.3%) were identified. Previous BM-directed therapies were radiosurgery in 16/22 (72.7%) patients, whole-brain radiotherapy in 8/22 (36.4%), and neurosurgical resection in 11/22 (50.0%). Time since BM diagnosis to initiation of bevacizumab treatment was 16.5 months. Of 22 patients 14 (63.6%) received concurrent systemic therapies. Neurological symptom improvement could be achieved in 14/22 (63.6%) and stabilization in 6/22 (27.3%) patients, resulting in a clinical benefit in 20/22 (90.9%) patients. Steroids could be reduced or stopped in 15/22 (68.2%) patients. Rate of improvement on T1-weighted imaging was 15/19 (78.9%; median reduction: −26.0% ± 32.9) and 19/20 (95%; median reduction: −36.2% ± 22.2) on T2-weighted FLAIR imaging. According to RANO-BM best response was partial response in 7/19 (36.8%), stable disease in 9/19 (47.3%), and progressive disease in 3/19 (15.7%) patients. Median CNS-specific progression-free survival was 8 months and median overall survival after initiation of bevacizumab treatment was 17 months. Conclusions Bevacizumab-based treatment had clinically relevant intracranial activity in the vast majority of patients suffering from recurrent, symptomatic BM. The data supports a prospective clinical trial of bevacizumab as a salvage treatment in BM.

Real World Data

In the UK, Trifluridine-tipiracil (Lonsurf) is used to treat metastatic colorectal cancer in the third-line setting, after prior exposure to fluoropyrimidine-based regimes. Current data on the real-world use of Lonsurf lack long-term follow-up data. A retrospective evaluation of patients receiving Lonsurf at our Cancer Centre in 2016–2017 was performed, all with a minimum of two-year follow-up. Fifty-six patients were included in the review. The median number of cycles of Lonsurf administered was 3. Median follow-up was 6.0 months, with all patients deceased at the time of analysis. Median progression-free survival (PFS) was 3.2 months, and overall survival (OS) was 5.8 months. The median interval from Lonsurf discontinuation to death was two months, but seven patients received further systemic treatment and median OS gained was 12 months. Lonsurf offered a slightly better PFS but inferior OS to that of the RECOURSE trial, with PFS similar to real-world data previously presented. Interestingly, 12.5% had a PFS > 9 months, and this cohort had primarily left-sided and RAS wild-type disease. A subset received further systemic treatment on Lonsurf discontinuation with good additional OS benefit. Lonsurf may alter the course of disease for a subset of patients, and further treatment on progression can be considered in carefully selected patients.
