<b><i>Background:</i></b> Due to few efficacious options in later lines of therapy in metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC), there has been considerable interest in the possibility of retreatment with previously administered agents. This study investigated the efficacy and safety of irinotecan retreatment (IRI2) in patients with refractory mCRC. <b><i>Methods:</i></b> We performed a retrospective analysis of patients with mCRC who were retreated with irinotecan-based regimens. The retreatment regimens with anti-epidermal growth factor receptor therapies were excluded. <b><i>Results:</i></b> A total of 64 patients were included. Patients had a median age of 56 years and were offered mainly in the setting of third- or fourth-line therapy with IRI2. The disease control rate was 78.2% including an objective response of 23.5%. Median progression-free survival and overall survival were 5.5 and 19.3 months, respectively. The most frequent grade 3 or higher toxicities were nausea/vomiting (27.9%) and neutropenia (25%). <b><i>Conclusion:</i></b> IRI2 might be a reasonable option for heavily pretreated patients with mCRC who achieved disease control with prior irinotecan therapy.

3595 Background: We conducted a phase II trial of gemcitabine with S-1 to evaluate the activity and toxicity of such a combination in heavily pre-treated patients (pts) with metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC) who have progressed after treatment with fluoropyrimidines-, oxaliplatin- and irinotecan-containing regimens. Methods: 36 pts were enrolled, with the following characteristics: 19 females (53%), median age 57 (28-72), 30 EOGO PS 0-1 (83%). S-1 was given orally (30 mg/m2) b.i.d for 14 consecutive days and gemcitabine (1000 mg/m2) was given on days 1 and 8, every 21 days, until disease progression and for a maximum of 9 cycles. The primary endpoint was objective response rate (ORR). Results: The median number of cycles was 5 (range 1-9), ORR was 16.7% (95% confidence interval [CI] 4.5-28.9%) and disease control rate was 61.1% (95% CI 45.2-77.0%) with 6 partial responses and 16 stable diseases. Median duration of disease control was 5.8 months (95% CI 4.1-7.5 months). Median progression-free survival was 3.7 months (95% CI 2.2-5.2 months) and median overall survival was 10.0 months (95% CI 7.4-12.7 months). Grade 3-4 toxicities were rare (neutropenia 12%, anemia 11%, leucopenia 6%, thrombocytopenia 3% and diarrhea 3%). Conclusions: Combination chemotherapy with gemcitabine and S-1 was a convenient, well tolerated and efficacious for heavily pre-treated pts with mCRC. This regimen warrants further evaluation in pts with good PS but no further treatment options.

e15008 Background: To assess the safety and efficacy of apatinib, an oral vascular endothelial growth factor receptor-2 inhibitor, combined with thymidylate synthase inhibitor raltitrexed in patients with metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC) as a third- or later-line therapy. Methods: Patients with mCRC after at least 2 lines of chemotherapy were enrolled whenever they previously treated with bevacizumab or not. Apatinib was given orally at 250mg or 500mg daily. Raltitrexed was administered intravenously at 3 mg/m2 on day 1 every 3 weeks. The primary endpoints were progression-free survival (PFS). The second endpoints were objective response rate (ORR), overall survival (OS) and safety. Results: From August 2017 to November 2018, thirty-one patients were enrolled in Chinese PLA General Hospital. After a median follow-up of 6.4 months, the median treatment cycle was 4. four patient achieved partial response(PR), and 11 patients achieved stable disease (SD) and 16 achieved progression disease (PD) in accordance with RECIST version 1.0, illustrating a DCR of 48.4% and an ORR of 12.9% .The Median PFS was 2.4 months and the median OS was 6.4 months. The most common adverse events were hypertension (n=12, 38.7%), nausea and vomiting (n=11, 33.8%), myelosuppression (n=9, 29.0%). The most common grade 3 to 4 adverse events were hypertension (n=2, 6.4%) and hand-foot syndrome (n=2, 6.4%). Grade 3 to 4 hematologic toxicities were rare. One patient died from cardiac arrest after three days treatment. There was no significantly association between PFS or OS, and clinical features including tumor location, KRAS status, and prior surgery or not, and number of metastatic organs. There was no trend showing patients who experienced had hypertension or myelosuppression had longer PFS and OS. Compared to the patients never received bevacizumab, the patients who had previously bevacizumab had the similar PFS and OS (3.9 versus 2.3months, P=0.787; 6.1 versus 6.4months, P=0.287). Grade1-2 nausea and vomiting and age <57 were independent predictors for longer PFS and OS. Conclusions: Apatinib combined with raltitrexed had efficacy but had limited survival benefit in mCRC refractory to standard chemotherapy. This regime showed us a higher risk of adverse event incidence and warrant further exploring of benefit population. Clinical trial information: NCT03344614 .

Methods: Between Dec 2009 and Nov 2011, 23 pts were enrolled, with the following characteristics: 12 males and 11 females, median age 57 years (28-72). S-1 was given orally (30 mg/m2) b.i.d for 14 consecutive days and gemcitabine (1000 mg/m2) was given on days 1 and 8, every 21 days, until disease progression and for a maximum of 9 cycles. The primary endpoint was objective response rate (ORR). Results: The median number of cycles was four (range 1-9). OR was 8.7% (95% confidence interval [CI] 0-20.2) and disease control rate was 56.5% (95% CI 36.4-76.9) with two partial responses and eleven stable diseases. Median duration of disease control was 8.5 months (95% CI 3.8-13.2). Median progression-free survival was 3.2 months (95% CI 1.9-4.5) and median overall survival was 11.8 months (95% CI 4.0-19.5). Grade 3-4 toxicities were neutropenia (8%) and thrombocytopenia (4%). Conclusions: Combination chemotherapy with gemcitabine and S-1 was well tolerated and efficacious for refractory mCRC pts.

Purpose Panitumumab, a fully human antibody targeting the epidermal growth factor receptor, is active in patients with metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC). This trial evaluated panitumumab added to bevacizumab and chemotherapy (oxaliplatin- and irinotecan-based) as first-line treatment for mCRC. Patients and Methods Patients were randomly assigned within each chemotherapy cohort to bevacizumab and chemotherapy with or without panitumumab 6 mg/kg every 2 weeks. The primary end point was progression-free survival (PFS) within the oxaliplatin cohort. Tumor assessments were performed every 12 weeks and reviewed centrally. Results A total of 823 and 230 patients were randomly assigned to the oxaliplatin and irinotecan cohorts, respectively. Panitumumab was discontinued after a planned interim analysis of 812 oxaliplatin patients showed worse efficacy in the panitumumab arm. In the final analysis, median PFS was 10.0 and 11.4 months for the panitumumab and control arms, respectively (HR, 1.27; 95% CI, 1.06 to 1.52); median survival was 19.4 months and 24.5 months for the panitumumab and control arms, respectively. Grade 3/4 adverse events in the oxaliplatin cohort (panitumumab v control) included skin toxicity (36% v 1%), diarrhea (24% v 13%), infections (19% v 10%), and pulmonary embolism (6% v 4%). Increased toxicity without evidence of improved efficacy was observed in the panitumumab arm of the irinotecan cohort. KRAS analyses showed adverse outcomes for the panitumumab arm in both wild-type and mutant groups. Conclusion The addition of panitumumab to bevacizumab and oxaliplatin- or irinotecan-based chemotherapy results in increased toxicity and decreased PFS. These combinations are not recommended for the treatment of mCRC in clinical practice.

PURPOSE To assess the efficacy of irinotecan (CPT-11) in the treatment of advanced colorectal cancer in both chemotherapy-naive and pretreated patients. PATIENTS AND METHODS Two hundred thirteen patients (aged 18 to 75 years) with metastatic colorectal cancer, World Health Organization (WHO) performance status < or = 2, and life expectancy > or = 3 months were treated with CPT-11 350 mg/m2 every 3 weeks. All 178 patients eligible for efficacy analysis had not received more than one prior fluorouracil (5-FU)-based chemotherapy regimen (adjuvant or palliative) and had adequate hematologic, renal, and hepatic function. RESULTS Primary tumor sites were the colon (71%) and rectum (28%). Sixty-six percent of the patients had > or = two metastatic sites. Ninety-eight percent of the patients had undergone previous surgery, and 77.5% had received prior chemotherapy. Thirty-two of 178 eligible patients achieved on objective response (four complete responses [CRs] and 28 partial responses [PRs]; response rate, 18%; 95% confidence interval, 12.6% to 24.4%), 65 were stable, and 59 progressed. The response rate was 17.7% in the pretreated group and 18.8% in the chemotherapy-naive group. Within the former subgroup, response rates of 16.1% were reported in patients who were progressive on prior 5-FU chemotherapy and 19.1% in patients who were progressive off such treatment. The median duration of objective response (9.1 months) and median time to achievement of a response (9.3 weeks) did not differ between chemotherapy-naive and pretreated patients. The most frequent adverse events were neutropenia, which developed in 80% of the patients, delayed diarrhea (87%), alopecia (88%), fatigue (81%), and nausea/vomiting (77%). All these adverse events were manageable. Severe (WHO grade 3 or 4) neutropenia was only observed in 18% of the cycles, leukopenia in 11%, delayed diarrhea in 11%, and nausea and vomiting in 3%. Development of simultaneous grade 3 or 4 neutropenia and delayed diarrhea during 4% of the cycles was the safety issue of greatest concern. CONCLUSION CPT-11 has definite activity in the treatment of advanced metastatic colorectal cancer both in chemotherapy-naive and in pretreated patients who experienced disease progression on 5-FU, which suggests a lack of cross-resistance between CPT-11 and 5-FU. Diarrhea and neutropenia, the major toxicities of CPT-11, contribute to the risk to develop febrile neutropenic sepsis.

14555 Background: This is a phase II study combination of capecitabine plus bevacizumab for patients with metastatic colorectal cancer after failure of both irinotecan- and oxaliplatin-containing regimens. Methods: The dose of capecitabine was 1000 mg/m2, administered twice daily for 14 days every 3 weeks. Bevacizumab was given at a dose of 5mg/kg on day 1 as i.v. infusion every 3 weeks. Treatment was repeated until the occurrence of disease progression or unaccepted toxicity. Results: Twenty-eight patients were enrolled. Of 28 patients, the overall response rate was 14.3% and the disease control rate was 42.9%. With a median follow-up period of 7 months, median time to progression and overall survival duration were 3 months and 14 months, respectively. The 1-year survival rate of all patients was 60.7%. The most common treatment-related grade 3/4 hematological toxicities included leukopenia/neutropenia in 4 patients and thrombocytopenia in 3 patients. Nonhematologic toxicities attributable to bevacizumab included bleeding in 3 patients, hypertension in 4 patients, thromboses in 3 patients, proteinuria in 5 patients, and gastrointestinal perforation in 1 patient. Conclusions: This drug regimen was well tolerated and combination of bevacizumab and capecitabine shows potential as third line chemotherapy in heavily pretreated patients with metastatic colorectal cancer. No significant financial relationships to disclose.

Methods: 34 pts were enrolled, with the following characteristics: 17 (50%) females, median age 57 years (28-72), 28 (82%) ECOG PS 0-1. S-1 was given orally (30 mg/m2) b.i.d for 14 consecutive days and gemcitabine (1000 mg/m2) was given on days 1 and 8, every 21 days, until disease progression and for a maximum of 9 cycles. The primary endpoint was objective response rate (ORR). Results: The median number of cycles was four (range 1-9). ORR was 14.7% (95% confidence interval [CI] 2.8-26.6) and disease control rate was 58.8% (95% CI 42.2-75.3) with five partial responses and fifteen stable diseases. Median duration of disease control was 5.1 months (95% CI 3.3-7.0). Median progression-free survival was 3.2 months (95% CI 2.3-4.1) and median overall survival was 11.8 months (95% CI 7.0-16.5). Grade 3-4 toxicities were neutropenia (12%), anemia (12%), thrombocytopenia (3%) and diarrhea (3%). Conclusions: Combination chemotherapy with gemcitabine and S-1 was well tolerated and efficacious for heavily pre-treated mCRC pts, and could be an alternative for pts with good PS but no further treatment options.

766 Background: Patients with metastatic colorectal cancer (CRC) usually receive multiple lines of treatment. Using a present day standard 1st line chemotherapy combination a progression free survival in the range of 8-12 months can be obtained. With consecutive treatment lines the median survival has now exceeded the 2-year landmark. In case of disease progression after two or more lines of treatment, the survival is about 4-6 months with best supportive care alone. However, some patients are still able and willing to receive further therapy. In the present retrospective analysis the efficacy of a weekly intravenous high-dose infusion of 5-Fluorouracil and folinic acid in heavily pretreated patients with metastatic CRC beyond the standard chemotherapy lines was evaluated. Methods: The Klinikum Wels-Grieskirchen collects data on all CRC patients since July 2006 in a clinical tumor registry. In this retrospective analysis pretreated CRC patients that were treated with the Ardalan-regimen (500mg/m2 folinic acid as 1 hour infusion followed by 2.600mg/m25-Fluorouracil as 24-hour infusion) have been evaluated. Results: A total of 23 evaluable patients with a median age of 66 years received the Ardalan-regimen as 2nd (4.4%), 3rd (13%), 4th (13%), 5th (52.2%), 6th (4.4%) or 7th (13%) line treatment. The median number of cycles received was 9 (range 2-18) and the Ardalan-regimen was started within 13-56 months (median 26 months) after the diagnosis of metastatic disease. Fourteen (60.9%) and nine (39.1%) out of these patients were women and men, respectively. 60.9% (14 patients) had a tumor located in the colon and 39.1% had rectal cancer. 17.4% of patients had stable disease and 65.2% of patients had progressive disease after 3 months of therapy. In 4 patients response according to RECIST criteria was not evaluable. Median overall survival since the start of the Ardalan-regimen was 6.7 months. Conclusions: Patients with advanced metastatic CRC can be candidates for multiple lines of therapy. In previously heavily pretreated patients, the Ardalan-regimen is able to control the disease in a limited proportion of patients.

Abstract Background: A previous phase I/II C-TASK FORCE study of trifluridine/tipiracil plus bevacizumab for patients with heavily pretreated metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC) showed promising activity with an acceptable toxicity profile. This retrospective study aimed to investigate the safety and efficacy of trifluridine/tipiracil plus bevacizumab compared with trifluridine/tipiracil monotherapy in patients with heavily pretreated mCRC in clinical settings. Methods: Records of patients with mCRC refractory to standard therapies who initiated trifluridine/tipiracil plus bevacizumab from January 2016 to March 2018 or trifluridine/tipiracil monotherapy from June 2014 to December 2015 were retrospectively reviewed at our institution. Results: Totally, 60 patients received trifluridine/tipiracil plus bevacizumab and 66 received trifluridine/tipiracil monotherapy. All patients had previously received standard chemotherapy. Median progression-free survival (PFS) was 3.7 months [95% confidence interval (CI), 2.3−5.1] in the trifluridine/tipiracil plus bevacizumab group and 2.2 months (95% CI, 1.8−2.6) in the trifluridine/tipiracil monotherapy group [hazards ratio (HR) 0.69; 95% CI 0.48−0.99]. PFS rate at 16 weeks was 46.6% for the trifluridine/tipiracil plus bevacizumab group and 33.9% for the trifluridine/tipiracil monotherapy group. Although a relatively higher incidence of grade ≥3 neutropenia was observed in the trifluridine/tipiracil plus bevacizumab group than that in the other group (50.0% vs. 40.9%, p = 0.371), the incidence of febrile neutropenia was not high (3.3% vs. 7.8%, p = 0.444). Conclusions: In real-world settings, trifluridine/tipiracil plus bevacizumab prolonged PFS and helped achieve higher 16-week PFS rate compared with trifluridine/tipiracil monotherapy in patients with heavily pretreated mCRC with manageable toxicities. Trial registration: Retrospectively registered

541 Background: In the previous studies, panitumumab (Pmab) has been demonstrated the efficacy for patients with metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC) in all treatment lines. It is still controversial about the efficacy of Pmab for patients that had progressed on prior cetuximab (Cmab), though there had been a few reports (from Metges et al. and Wadlow et al.) regarding the efficacy of Pmab after Cmab refractory or intolerance. To evaluate the efficacy and safety of Pmab in patients with cetuximab-refractory mCRC, in comparison with anti-EGFR antibody naïve patients (Cmab-naïve) and Cmab-refractory or intolerance patients (prior-Cmab). Methods: Two hundred patients with mCRC treated by Pmab contained chemotherapy were retrospectively registered from 20 centers in Japan (HGCSG 1002 study). Of these, the patients that were refractory to or intolerant for 5-FU/ irinotecan/ oxaliplatin, and were administered Pmab monotherapy were included in this analysis. Results: Of 93 patients (44 prior-Cmab and 49 Cmab-naïve) were evaluated. There were no significant differences in the baseline characteristics of the patients in each group. The incidence of Grade 3 or higher any skin toxicities were higher in the Cmab-naïve (26.5.%) than in the prior-Cmab (11.4%). The overall response rate (RR) was not significantly difference (prior-Cmab/ Cmab-naïve, 9.1%/ 10.2%), but the disease control rate (DCR) was slightly higher in Cmab-naïve group (38.6%/ 55.1%, p=0.15). Progression free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) were follows: prior-Cmab/ Cmab-naïve, 2.8m/ 3.1m, 6.8m / 9.5m. There was a significant difference between the two groups in OS curve (p=0.04). Conclusions: Pmab was safely administered to heavily pretreated mCRC patients in daily practice. Although there were no significant differences in RR, DCS and PFS between prior-Cmab and Cmab-naïve, but the median OS was longer for the Cmab-naïve group compared with the prior-Cmab group. Therapeutic efficacies of Pmab for prior-Cmab patients did not comparable to those for Cmab-naïve patients. We are now performing a phase II trial on the efficacy of Pmab for Cmab-refractory mCRC patients.
