Long Term Follow Up

Abstract BACKGROUND Between 1995 and 2002 the EORTC Brain Tumor Group conducted a prospective phase III study on adjuvant procarbazine, CCNU and vincristine (PCV) chemotherapy in anaplastic oligodendroglioma (AOD). A mature follow-up presented in 2012 showed survival benefit of the addition of PCV, in particular in 1p/19q co-deleted tumors and tumors with MGMT promoter methylation. We now present very long term follow-up. MATERIALS AND METHODS Patients were eligible if locally diagnosed with a newly diagnosed AOD. They were randomized between radiotherapy (RT, 33 x 1.8 Gy) and the same RT followed by 6 cycles PCV (RT/PCV). Primary endpoints were overall survival (OS) and progression free survival (PFS). 1p/19q status (FISH) was determined in 300 patient. Kaplan- Meier technique and Cox modeling were used for long term survival analysis. Primary analyses were adjusted for known prognostic factors. For other analyses no adjustment was performed. RESULTS With 368 patients included, a median follow-up of 18.4 years and 307 (83%) survival events, median and 20-year survival after RT/PCV versus RT alone were 42.3 mo and 16.8% vs 30.6 months and 10.1% (HR 0.78; 95% CI (0.63, 0.98), adjusted p=0.06). Eighty patients were 1p/19q codel of which 26 (33%) were still alive, in this subgroup median and 20-year survival after RT/PCV versus RT alone were 14 years and 37.1% versus 9.3 years and 13.6% (HR 0.60, 95% CI (0.35, 1.03), unadjusted p=0.06). Twenty year PFS in 1p/19q codel was 31.3% in RT/PCV treated patients and 10.8% in RT only treated patients (HR 0.49, 95% CI (0.29, 0.83), unadjusted p=0.007). In the 1p/19q codel subgroup age, WHO PS and necrosis at pathology were identified to be of independent prognostic value for OS. CONCLUSION This long term analysis confirms the earlier conclusions and provides data on long term survival in this patient group. In 1p/19q codel patients treated with RT/PCV, the 20-year PFS and OS rates are 31% and 37% respectively.

Long Term Follow Up

PURPOSE: To determine long-term survival and predictors of recurrence in a retrospective cohort of patients with epithelial ovarian cancer treated with intraperitoneal (IP) chemotherapy. PATIENTS AND METHODS: Records were reviewed of 433 patients who received IP therapy for ovarian cancer between 1984 and 1998; follow-up data were available for 411 patients. IP therapy was provided as consolidation therapy (n = 89), or for treatment of persistent (n = 310) or recurrent (n = 12) disease after surgery and initial systemic therapy; therapy usually consisted of platinum-based combination therapy. Statistical analysis included tests for associations between potential prognostic factors, and between prognostic factors and survival. Survival probabilities were estimated by Kaplan-Meier methods, and prognostic factors for survival were evaluated by a Cox proportional hazard model. RESULTS: The mean age of patients was 52 years (range, 25 to 76 years). Distribution by stage and grade was as follows: stage I, 7; II, 24; III, 342; IV, 52; not available (NA), 8; and grade 1, 30; 2, 99; and 3, 289; NA, 15. The median survival from initiation of IP therapy by residual disease was none, 8.7 years; microscopic, 4.8 years; less than 1 cm, 3.3 years; more than 1 cm, 1.2 years. In a multivariate analysis, the only significant predictors of long-term survival were grade and size of residual disease at initiation of IP therapy. CONCLUSION: Prolonged survival was observed in selected patients receiving IP platinum-based therapy. It is not possible to determine the contribution of IP therapy to survival in this study. A relationship between size of disease at the initiation of IP therapy and long-term survival was demonstrated.

The Difference

2 Background: AOD are chemotherapy-sensitive tumors especially if 1p/19q co-deleted. Between 1995 and 2002 the EORTC Brain Tumor Group conducted a prospective phase III study on adjuvant procarbazine, CCNU and vincristine chemotherapy (PCV) in AOD. We now present long-term follow-up. Methods: Patients (pts) with locally diagnosed newly diagnosed AOD were randomized between radiotherapy (RT, 33 x 1.8 Gy) and the same RT followed by 6 cycles of standard PCV (RT/PCV). Primary endpoints were overall survival (OS) and progression-free survival (PFS). 1p/19q status, IDH status and MGMT promoter methylation were determined in 300, 167, and 186 pts respectively. Results: Between 1996 and 2002, 368 pts were included. At the time of analysis 281 pts (76.4%) had died. Median PFS after RT/PCV was significantly longer compared to RT alone (24.3 months versus 13.21 months, hazard ratio [HR] 0.66, [95% confidence interval (95% CI) 0.52, 0.83]). More RT arm patients received chemotherapy at progression (75% vs 53%). Median OS was also significantly prolonged in the RT/PCV arm (42.3 months vs 30.6 months for the RT arm, HR 0.75 [95% CI 0.60, 0.95]). 1p/19q co-deleted patients (n = 76) treated with RT/PCV had improved OS compared to RT arm pts (median OS not reached vs 113 months; HR 0.54, p = 0.0487). In the 224 patients without 1p/19q co-deletion the difference in OS was non-significant (OS RT/PCV arm 25 months vs 22 months in the RT arm, HR 0.82, p = 0.18; test for interaction p = 0.22). There was a slight trend towards improved OS in MGMT methylated and IDH mutated tumors versus unmethylated and IDH wild type tumors (Table). Conclusions: The addition of PCV to RT increases PFS and OS in AOD. Pts with 1p/19q co-deletion appear to benefit most from the addition of PCV, with a trend for improved OS in pts with MGMT methylation and IDH mutations. [Table: see text]

Long Term Follow Up

Extrahepatic bile duct tumors, 80 per cent of which are adenocarcinomas, are rare neoplasms accounting for less than two per cent of all cancers. Carcinoid tumor of the extrahepatic bile ducts is a reportable lesion, with only approximately 50 cases described in the literature since 1959. We present a case of a primary extrahepatic bile duct carcinoid tumor resected for cure with the longest reported follow-up time (11 years) after surgery. We also summarize the existing literature with regard to this rare tumor. Our case lends strong support to the notion that extrahepatic biliary carcinoids are generally indolent lesions that, if aggressively resected, can result in excellent long-term survival. Complete excision with clear margins seems to provide the best chance of obtaining long-term survival and cure.

Purpose SWOG S0016 was a phase III randomized study that compared the safety and efficacy of R-CHOP (rituximab plus cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine, and prednisone) with CHOP-RIT (CHOP followed by consolidation with iodine-133–tositumomab radioimmunotherapy) for previously untreated patients with follicular lymphoma. Understanding the long-term outcome of patients provides a benchmark for novel treatment regimens for FL. Patients and Methods Between 2001 and 2008, 531 previously untreated patients with FL were randomly assigned to receive either six cycles of R-CHOP or six cycles of CHOP-RIT. Patients with advanced-stage disease (bulky stage II, III, or IV) of any pathologic grade (1, 2, or 3) were eligible. Results After a median follow-up of 10.3 years, 10-year estimates of progression-free and overall survival were 49% and 78% among all patients, respectively. Patients in the CHOP-RIT arm had significantly better 10-year progression-free survival compared with patients in the R-CHOP arm (56% v 42%; P = .01), but 10-year overall survival was not different between the two arms (75% v 81%; P = .13). There was no significant difference between the CHOP-RIT and R-CHOP arms in regard to incidence of second malignancies (15.1% v 16.1%; P = .81) or myelodysplastic syndrome or acute myeloid leukemia (4.9% v 1.8%; P = .058). The estimated 10-year cumulative incidences of death resulting from second malignancies were not different (7.1% v 3.2%; P = .16), but cumulative incidence of death resulting from myelodysplastic syndrome or acute myeloid leukemia was higher in the CHOP-RIT arm compared with the R-CHOP arm (4% v 0.9%; P = .02). Conclusion Given these outstanding outcomes, immunochemotherapy should remain the standard induction approach for patients with high-risk FL until long-term follow-up of alternative approaches demonstrates superiority.

3538 Background: CRC liver metastases can be resected after downsizing with intensive chemotherapy schedules, with a strong correlation between the response and resection rates. Cetuximab plus chemotherapy has been shown to increase the rates of tumor response and resection of liver metastases. (Van Cutsem et al, JCO 2011). Methods: Patients (pts) with technically non-resectable and/or with > 4 liver metastases were randomized to treatment with FOLFOX/cetuximab (arm A) or FOLFIRI/cetuximab (arm B) and evaluated regarding resectability every 2 months. Resection was offered to all patients who became resectable during the study. K-ras and b-raf status were retrospectively evaluated. Data on tumor response and resection were reported earlier (Folprecht et al, Lancet Oncol 2010). Overall and progression free survival were analyzed in December 2012. Results: Between Dec 2004 and March 2008, 56 pts were randomized to arm A, 55 to arm B. For the current analysis, 109 pts were evaluable for overall survival (OS), and 106 patients for PFS. The median OS was 35.7 [95% CI: 27.2-44.2] months (arm A: 35.8 [28.1-43.6], arm B: 29.0 [16.0-41.9], HR 1.03 [0.66-1.61], p=0.9). The median PFS was 10.8 [9.3-12.2] months (Arm A: 11.2 [7.2-15.3], Arm B: 10.5 [8.9-12.2], HR 1.18 [0.79-1.74], p=0.4). Patients with R0 resection had a better OS (median: 53.9 [35.9-71.9] mo) than patients without R0 resection (27.3 [21.1-33.4] mo, p=0.002) and a better PFS (median 15.4 [11.4-19.5] and 8.9 [6.7-11.1] mo in R0 resected and not R0 resected pts, p<0.001). The 5 year survival in R0 resected patients is 46.2% [29.5-62.9%]. Conclusions: This study confirmed a favourable long term survival of patients with initially “nonresectable” CRC liver metastases treated in a multidisciplinary approach of neoadjuvant chemotherapy with cetuximab and subsequent metastasectomy in pts who became resectable.

10013 Background: 5-year follow-up of the phase 3 KEYNOTE-006 study (NCT01866319) showed pembro improved OS vs ipilimumab (ipi) in patients (pts) with advanced melanoma. 3-y OS rate from pembro completion for pts who completed 2 y of pembro was 93.8%. Results with 8 mo of additional follow-up are presented to inform clinical care. Methods: Eligible pts with ipi-naive advanced melanoma, ≤1 prior therapy for BRAF-mutant disease, and ECOG PS 0 or 1 were randomized to pembro 10 mg/kg Q2W or Q3W for ≤2 y or ipi 3 mg/kg Q3W for 4 doses. Pts discontinuing pembro with CR, PR, or SD after ≥94 weeks were considered pts with 2-y pembro. Pts who stopped pembro with SD, PR or CR could receive ≤12 mo of additional pembro (2nd course) upon disease progression if still eligible. ORR was assessed per immune-related response criteria by investigator review. OS was estimated using the Kaplan-Meier method. Pembro arm data were pooled. Post hoc ITT efficacy analyses are shown. Results: Median follow-up from randomization to data cutoff (Jul 31, 2019) was 66.7 mo in the pembro and 66.9 mo in the ipi arms. OS outcomes are shown in Table. For the 103 pts with 2-y pembro (30 CR, 63 PR, 10 SD), median follow-up from completion was 42.9 mo (95% CI, 39.9-46.3).Median DOR was not reached. 36-mo OS from pembro completion was 100% (95% CI, 100.0-100.0) for pts with CR, 94.8% (95% CI, 84.7-98.3) for pts with PR, and 66.7% (95% CI, 28.2-87.8) for pts with SD. 15 pts received 2nd-course pembro; BOR in 1st course was 6 CR, 6 PR, and 3 SD. Median time from end of 1st course to start of 2ndcourse was 24.5 mo (range, 4.9-41.4). Median follow-up in pts who received 2nd-course pembro was 25.3 mo (range, 3.5-39.4). Median duration of 2nd-course pembro was 8.3 mo (range, 1.4-12.6). BOR on 2ndcourse was 3 CR, 5 PR (ongoing responses, 7 pts), 3 SD (ongoing, 2 pts), and 2 PD (1 death); 2 pts pending. Conclusions: Pembro improves the long-term survival vs ipi in pts with advanced melanoma, with all pts who completed therapy in CR still alive at 5 years. Retreatment with pembro at progression in pts who stopped at SD or better can provide additional clinical benefit in a majority of pts. Clinical trial information: NCT01866319. [Table: see text]

ObjectivesTo examine the long-term survival outcome of dabrafenib in combination with trametinib in Chinese patients with unresectable or metastatic acral/cutaneous melanoma with BRAF-V600 mutation and to explore potential predictors of effectiveness.MethodsThis was a long-term follow-up of Chinese patients with unresectable or metastatic BRAF V600-mutant acral/cutaneous melanoma administered dabrafenib (150 mg twice daily) plus trametinib (2 mg once daily) in an open-label, multicenter, single-arm, phase IIa study (NCT02083354). Efficacy endpoints included objective response rate (ORR), duration of response (DOR), progression-free survival (PFS), and overall survival (OS). The impacts of baseline characteristics on PFS and OS were analyzed.ResultsA total of sixty patients were included. The median age was 48 years, and 24 patients (40.0%) were male. Totally 12 individuals (20.0%) had acral melanoma, and 45 (75.0%) had failed previous systemic therapy. Up to July 2020, the median duration of follow-up was 37.0 (95% confidence interval [CI] 29.1-44.9) months. The updated ORR was 71.7% (95%CI 60.3%-83.1%). The 3-year OS rate was 28.8% (95%CI 19.1-43.6%) in the overall population, and 35.7% (95%CI 15.5–82.4%) in acral melanoma patients. The median DOR was 7.5 months (95%CI 4.5 to 10.5). Baseline normal lactic dehydrogenase (LDH), metastatic organ sites&lt;3 and complete response to combination therapy with dabrafenib plus trametinib were associated with improved PFS and OS.ConclusionDabrafenib combined with trametinib confer long-term survival in Chinese patients with BRAF V600-mutant, unresectable or metastatic acral/cutaneous melanoma.Clinical Trial Registrationhttps://clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/show/NCT02083354, identifier NCT02083354.

e16202 Background: There are limited treatment options for advanced neuroendocrine tumours, and radiolabelled somatostatin analogues have shown favourable safety and efficacy over other existing treatments. Lutetium Octreotate has been shown to be the somatostatin analogue of choice in Peptide Radiolabelled Radiotherapy (PRRT) for advanced neuroendocrine tumours (NETs). Methods: We conducted a retrospective review of the long term safety and survival outcomes of 104 patients prospectively treated on the CLEMENT1, CLEMENT2, NETTLE, and NETT VALuE trials where patients with advanced progressive NETs were treated with Lutetium Octreotate PRRT in Perth, Western Australia. With a median follow-up time of 68 months, this is the longest follow-up study of advanced NETs treated with Lutetium PRRT in the literature to date. Results: Results showed comparable periods of disease stability as other studies, with median progression free survival of 43 months, and superior survival to other series, with a median survival of 71 months. There were patients who had very durable responses, with five year overall survival 61.5%, five year progression free survival 30.1%, 10 year overall survival 30.1%, and 10 year progression free survival of 29.3%, demonstrating Lu 177 can provide a very long duration of response in some patients. PRRT treatment was well tolerated with 1.9% of patients suffering long term renal impairment, and 1% with long term mild thrombocytopenia attributed to PRRT. Importantly, there was a higher rate of MDS and leukaemia in our series (6.7%), which is likely attributed to the longer period of follow-up with all except one case occurring 48 months after PRRT treatment, which is later than the median follow up in most other studies. Conclusions: Overall, this study showed that Lutetium PRRT remains an efficacious and well tolerated treatment in long term follow-up. For clinicians deciding on the timing of PRRT for individual patients the 6.7% long term risk of MDS/leukaemia needs to be balanced against the 29.3% PFS at 10 years.

Chi Square Analysis

Background: Young patients (pts) with acute aortic dissection (AAD) have distinct risk factors and presenting symptoms compared to older pts, but whether these differences extend past discharge is relatively unknown. Methods: Among pts presenting with AAD enrolled in the International Registry of Acute Aortic Dissection, pts <40 (N=280) were compared with pts ≥ 40 (N=3585). Chi-square analysis or Fischer’s Exact test were performed for categorical variables; age was compared using Student’s T-test. Kaplan-Meier curves were generated for freedom from adverse events rates 0-60 months following discharge. Mean follow-up was 28.6 months. Results: Significant differences in demographics and history were noted between pts <40 and the older cohort. Young pts more commonly had type A AAD (71.8%, 201/280, v. 64.6%, 2317/ 3585, p<0.016), while type B AAD was more typical in older pts (p<0.016). On imaging studies, pts <40 were less likely to present with IMH (7.3%, 246/3355, v. 2.3%, 6/266, p=0.002), but were more likely to have a patent false lumen (77.9%, 141/181, v. 62.1%, 1425/2295, p<0.001). Surgical management was more common in young pts, for both AAD types. In-hospital complications or mortality did not differ between groups. Kaplan-Meier analysis demonstrated better long-term survival in young pts compared to those ≥ 40 (p=0.029). Kaplan-Meier analyses of freedom from adverse events at 5 years illustrated no difference in aortic growth between groups, but significantly more late interventions in younger pts (p=0.006). Conclusions: Young pts show distinct differences in comparison to older pts, specifically regarding presentation, AAD type and management. Long-term survival and follow-up intervention rates are higher in young pts.
