Background: The inclusion of the CD38-targeting antibody daratumumab (Dara) increases the depth and duration of the response, as demonstrated by Dara-VTd and Dara-VRd protocols to treat NDMM - TE patients (pts). However, the access to new drugs is a challenge for some countries in Latin America. There are many induction protocols and one of the most used inductions worldwide is cyclophosphamide (C), thalidomide (T) and dexamethasone (d)- (CTd). We hypothesized that the combination of daratumumab and CTd (Dara-CTd) could be safe and allow deeper activity in NDMM TE pts. Objective: The primary endpoint was the attainment of VGPR after two consolidation cycles post-autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT). Secondary endpoints were the overall response rate during all treatment phases and minimal residual disease (MRD), based on the International Myeloma Working Group (IMWG) criteria that includes the next-generation flow by the EuroFlow® and PET-CT and the safety profile. An exploratory endpoint was the analysis of the immunologic change in the lymphocyte profile during the treatment. Methods: This is a phase II, open-label single-center clinical trial. The main inclusion criteria were: NDMM TE, creatinine clearance > 30 ml/min, normal cardiac, renal and liver function and the Easter Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status = 0 - 2. The protocol scheme was Dara-CTd for up to four 28-day induction cycles: C-500mg oral (PO) on days 1,8 and 15, T at 100-200mg PO on days 1 to 28, Dex at 40mg PO on days 1,8,15 and 22 and Dara at 16mg/Kg/dose intravenous (IV) on days 1,8,15 and 22 during cycles 1 - 2 and every other week in cycles 3 - 4, followed by ASCT. Consolidation was started at D+30 after transplant and all patients received up to four 28-day consolidation cycles: Dara at 16mg/Kg and (d) at 40mg every other week, associated with T at 100mg PO on days 1 - 28. Dara at 16mg/Kg was used monthly as maintenance until progression or limiting toxicity. All patients received antiviral, anti-pneumocystis and anti-thrombotic prophylaxis. Results: The first patient was enrolled in November 2018. A total of 21 pts were included, the median age being 56 (range 38 - 67 years), 18 (85%) were non-white, 3 (14%) had an R-ISS = 1, 12 (57%) had an R-ISS = 2 and 3 (14%), an R-ISS = 3. Five (24%) pts had high-risk chromosomal abnormalities [del17p, t(4;14) or t(14;16)]. To date, 18 pts have completed induction, 12 have received transplants and 10 have completed D+90 post-transplant assessment. In an intention to treatment analysis, after the end of induction (cycle 4), 17 (95%) of the pts obtained > PR and 7 (33%) obtained VGPR or better. Ten patients have completed two consolidation cycles after transplant and 100% obtained > VGPR as best response, 8 (80%) obtained MRD = -10-5 negative remission by flow cytometry and 6 (60%) had negative PET-CTs. Five (50%) patients had both flow and PET-CT negativity. Two patients died from infection, one post-transplant, considered not related to the investigational agent, and another after consolidation, related to the investigational agent. The most common non-hematological adverse events (AEs) grades 3 and 4 before ASCT were neuropathy (n = 6), infusion reaction (n = 6), infection (n = 2), hypertension (n = 1) and rash (n = 1). Conclusion: This is the first study that combined daratumumab with CTd as induction for NDMM TE patients. This preliminary data has shown that the association of Dara-CTd achieved a deep response with a safety profile. Clinical trial information: NCT03792620.

Abstract Background: Newly drugs access for MM treatment still a challenge in some countries. One of the most available inductions for TE NDMM patients (pts) worldwide is cyclophosphamide (C), thalidomide (T) and dexamethasone (d)-(CTd). Dara the first anti- CD38, had been combined with VCd, VTd and VRd and markedly increased the depth and duration of the response. We hypothesized that Dara and CTd combination could be safe and allow deeper activity as an alternative protocol. Aims: The aims of this analysis were to evaluate Progression Free Survival (PFS) of Dara-CTd treatment and minimal residual disease (MRD) after one year of Dara maintenance. Primary endpoint of the study was to evaluate the VGPR after two consolidation cycles post-autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT). Methods: This is a phase II, open-label single-center clinical trial. The main inclusion criteria were: TE NDMM, creatinine clearance > 30 ml/min, normal cardiac, renal and liver function and the Easter Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status = 0 - 2. The protocol was Dara-CTd for up to four 28-day induction cycles: C-500mg oral (PO) on days 1,8 and 15, T at 100-200mg PO on days 1 to 28, (d) at 40mg PO on days 1,8,15 and 22 and Dara at 16mg/Kg/dose intravenous (IV) on days 1,8,15 and 22 during cycles 1 - 2 and every other week in cycles 3 - 4, followed by ASCT. All pts received up to four 28-day consolidation cycles that was started at D+30 after ASCT: Dara at 16mg/Kg and (d) at 40mg every other week, associated with T at 100mg PO on days 1 - 28. Dara at 16mg/Kg was used monthly as maintenance until progression or limiting toxicity. G-CSF was used for stem cell (SC) mobilization and plerixafor had been allowed whenever the pts need. The MRD was evaluated by next-generation flow (NGF) based and PET-CT was performed when the patient obtained NGF negativity or finished consolidation. PFS outcome was estimated using Kaplan-Meier method. All pts received antiviral, anti-pneumocystis and anti-thrombotic prophylaxis. Data cut-off was June 15, 2021. Results: The first pts was enrolled in November 2018. A total of 24 pts were included, the median age being 60 (range 37- 67 years), 23 (92%) were non-white, 5 (21%) had an R-ISS = 1, 12 (54%) had an R-ISS = 2 and 4 (16%), an R-ISS = 3. Six (25%) pts had high-risk chromosomal abnormalities [del17p, t(4;14) or t(14;16)]. To date, all pts have completed induction, 20 have received transplant and 17 have completed D+90 post-transplant assessment. No SC mobilization failure was observed, and six (30%) pts needed plerixafor use. By ITT analysis after a median follow up of 20 months the PFS at 12 and 18 months was 86%. No PFS difference was observed between different subgroups. Regarding response rates, after the end of induction (cycle 4), 19 (90%) of the pts obtained > PR and 8 (38%) obtained >VGPR, including three MRD negativity by NGF. 17 pts have completed two consolidation cycles after transplant and 94% obtained > VGPR as best response, 13 (76%) obtained MRD negativity by NGF and 10 (58%) had negative PET-CT. Seven (41%) pts had both flow and PET-CT negativity. Six pts completed one year of maintenance and five of them (83%) still MRD negativity by NGF. Four pts died from infection, two of them related with covid infection (one before transplant and one during maintenance). Another case post-transplant, considered not related to the investigational agent and one after consolidation, related to the investigational agent. Two pts have discontinued treatment due to progression - 1 before ASCT e 1 during maintenance. The most common adverse events (AEs) grades 3 and 4 were neutropenia (n = 12), infusion reaction (n = 7), neuropathy (n = 6), lymphopenia (n = 4), infection (n = 3), hypertension (n = 1) and rash (n = 1). Summary/Conclusion: The Daratumumab - CTd protocol is an active regimen capable of producing deep and sustainable responses and improve the PFS of NDMM TE pts with a favorable safety profile.

2521 Background: LVGN6051, a monoclonal antibody against CD137 (also known as 4-1BB or TNFRSF9) with an engineered Fc capable of selectively binding to the Fcγ receptor IIB, acts as a conditional CD137 agonist, resulting in immune activation optimally in tumor microenvironment ( Qi, Nat. Commun. 2019 ). In preclinical models, LVGN6051 demonstrated robust anti-tumor efficacy and safety as a single agent and in combination with anti-PD-1 antibodies. Therefore, we have initiated this first-in-human study of LVGN6051 alone or in combination with pembrolizumab for the treatment of advanced or metastatic malignancy. Methods: This study includes accelerated dose escalation monotherapy up to 2 mg/kg of LVGN6051, and traditional 3 + 3 design for higher doses of LVGN6051 alone or in combination with pembrolizumab. Then, this study will enroll patients with specific types of malignancies following Simon’s two-stage design. Both agents are administered once every 3 weeks. Primary objectives of this study were to define the safety profile and to establish the recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D) of LVGN6051 alone or in combination with pembrolizumab. Pharmacokinetics, immunogenicity, pharmacodynamics and clinical efficacy will be also evaluated. Results: At the cut-off date on January 18, 2021, 16 subjects have been enrolled into the monotherapy cohorts (n=12, no DLT observed up to 7 mg/kg), and the combination cohort (n=4, ongoing at LVGN6051 2 mg/kg and pembrolizumab 200 mg, one DLT observed). No treatment-related adverse event (TRAE) was observed in monotherapy. Treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAE) in combination included increased ALT/AST, thrombocytopenia, and fatigue. In the combination cohort, one patient with predominant hepatic metastases and history of intermittent grade 2 hepatic impairment experienced grade 3 increased ALT/AST (DLT) on cycle 1 day 15 that were resolved to her baseline without corticosteroids on cycle 1 day 18. TRAE included increased ALT/AST, thrombocytopenia, neutropenia, nausea and fatigue. Seven of 10 evaluable patients in the monotherapy cohorts demonstrated stable disease with the longest treatment being 8+ months. Tumor reductions by >10% were observed in melanoma and neuroendocrine tumor on monotherapy. One patient with metastatic head and neck squamous cell carcinoma who had progressed on an anti-PD-L1 based therapy showed an immune partial response (iPR) for 6+ months to the combination therapy. Conclusions: Preliminary evidence showed that LVGN6051 was well tolerated and tumor shrinkages were observed. While we continue assessing its safety profile, antitumor activity was observed in the LVGN6051 and pembrolizumab cohort. The favorable safety profile and preliminary antitumor activity warrant further evaluation in patients with advanced malignancies. Clinical trial information: NCT04130542.

e15550 Background: The combination of anti-VEGF or anti-EGFR targeted drugs with chemotherapy is the standard first-line therapy for metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC), and the followed maintenance treatment is an optional approach to balance the efficacy and toxicity. However, studies regarding the maintenance strategies based on antiangiogenic TKIs are limited currently. Anlotinib, a novel oral multi-target TKI which can inhibit both tumor angiogenesis and tumor cell proliferation simultaneously, substantially prolonged the PFS with manageable toxicity for refractory mCRC in the phase III ALTER0703 clinical trial. Here we report an update on the effectiveness and safety of anlotinib plus XELOX as first-line treatment followed by anlotinib monotherapy for mCRC. Methods: In this open label, single-arm, multicenter phase II clinical trial, 53 mCRC patients without prior systemic treated, aged 18-75 and an ECOG performance status of 0 or 1 were planned to recruit. Eligible patients received capecitabine (1000 mg/m2, po, d1-14, q3w) and oxaliplatin (130 mg/m2, iv, d1, q3w) plus anlotinib (10mg, po, d1̃14, q3w) treatment for 6 cycles. After 6 cycles of inducing therapy, patients would receive anlotinib (12mg, po, d1̃14, q3w) as maintenance therapy until disease progression or intolerable adverse events (AEs). The primary endpoint was PFS; Secondary endpoints included ORR, DCR, DOR and safety. Results: By the data analysis cutoff date of January 22, 2021, a total of 18 patients were enrolled, of which 12 patients were available for efficacy assessment. In best overall response assessment, there were 50.0% PR (6/12), 33.3% SD (4/12) and 16.7% PD (2/12). The ORR was 50.0% (95% CI, 21.1-78.9%) and DCR was 83.3% (95% CI, 51.5-97.9%). The longest duration of treatment was 8.8 months and the response was still ongoing. The median PFS was not reached. The most common treatment related adverse events (TRAEs) of any grade (≥20%) were leukopenia, hypertension, neutropenia, diarrhea, fatigue, hypertriglyceridemia. Grade 3/4 TRAEs included hypertension (22.2%), hypertriglyceridemia (11.1%), lipase elevated (11.1%) and neutropenia (5.6%). No grade 5 AEs occurred. Conclusions: The update results suggested that anlotinib combined with XELOX as first line regimen followed by anlotinib monotherapy showed promising anti-tumor activity and manageable safety for patients with mCRC. And the conclusions needed to be confirmed in trials continued subsequently. Clinical trial information: ChiCTR1900028417.

TPS8055 Background: Len maintenance post ASCT is standard of care for patients (pts) with NDMM. Deep responses (CR or better) post ASCT correlates with better progression free survival (PFS). In a meta-analysis of len maintenance post ASCT (McCarthy PL et al. J Clin Oncol. 2017), only 10.7% of pts achieve CR post ASCT, and 72% of pts who discontinued len maintenance did so because of progressive disease (PD). Selinexor is a selective inhibitor of nuclear export that blocks exportin 1, thus retaining tumour suppressor proteins within the nucleus while blocking proto-oncoprotein translation. It is approved in combination with bortezomib and dexamethasone (dex) for pts with MM who have had at least 1 prior line of treatment, or with dex for pts with penta-refractory MM by the FDA. The oral bioavailability and weekly schedule of selinexor makes it suitable in combination with len for maintenance therapy. Given the encouraging activity (ORR 92%) and tolerability of selinexor, len and dex from the phase 1b/2 STOMP study, we hypothesise that combination low-dose selinexor and len (XR) will be well tolerated and effective, increasing CR and MRD negativity rate post ASCT, thus prolonging PFS compared to len. Methods: ALLG MM23 SeaLAND, is an ongoing randomised, multi-centre, phase 3 trial. Eligible pts ( > 17 years of age) have measurable disease, have undergone 3-6 cycles (C) of induction containing a proteasome inhibitor (PI) and/or immunomodulatory drug and recovered post melphalan-conditioned ASCT with adequate haematopoiesis, renal and liver function, and with ECOG performance status. Registration occurs prior to ASCT with screening between 75 to 115 days post ASCT. The study includes a lead-in safety phase of 20 patients with XR: Len 10mg daily days 1 to 21 and Selinexor 40mg weekly in a 28-day cycle. If well tolerated, Selinexor escalates to 60mg po weekly from C2 and Len to 15mg po daily from C4. Two safety reviews will occur after the 10th and 20th patients completes C2, respectively. Upon meeting safety criteria, a sample size of 290 pts will be randomised 1:1 to XR or lenalidomide (R). Therapy will continue until PD. The primary endpoint is PFS at 3 years post randomisation. Secondary endpoints include ORR and MRD-negativity rate (International Myeloma Working Group Response Criteria), PFS on next treatment line (PFS2), OS, safety and tolerability, quality of life, and cost effectiveness. Main analysis occurs after 232 patients complete 3-years of follow-up. Exploratory objective is to correlate immunological and molecular profiles to treatment response and resistance. ALLG MM23 SeaLAND is a multisite bi-national investigator-initiated trial lead by Australia and New Zealand’s national cooperative group, the Australasian Leukaemia & Lymphoma Group.

588 Background: Now fluoropyrimidine plus Bmab is considered a recommendable option to the majority of elderly mCRC patients who are deemed inappropriate for the standard doublet chemotherapy with biologics. Our previous phase II study of UFT/ LV in elderly mCRC patients (≥75 years old) had demonstrated acceptable safety and efficacy (overall response rate [ORR] 33%, progression-free survival [PFS] 5.3 months, overall survival [OS] 18 months). The aim of the present study was to investigate the efficacy and safety of Bmab in combination with UFT/LV for elderly mCRC patients. Methods: This study was designed as a single-arm, open-label, multicenter, cooperative group (SGOSG-TCTG) clinical trial (trial registration: UMIN000003515). Key eligibility criteria included age ≥75 years, ECOG performance status (PS) 0 or 1, first-line chemotherapy, measurable lesions, and preserved organ functions. Patients received UFT 300mg/m2/day and LV 75mg/body/day on days 1-21 followed by 7 days rest, and intravenous administration of Bmab 5mg/kg on days 1 and 15. Treatment repeated every 28 days. The primary endpoint was PFS, and secondary endpoints were ORR, OS, and safety. Results: A total of 55 patients were enrolled from 15 institutions between Aug 2008 and Mar 2012. Among them, 52 eligible patients were evaluated. Median age was 80 years (range: 75-87). ECOG PS 0 was 73%. Median PFS was 8.2 months (95% confidence interval [CI], 6.2-10.3, events in 86.5%). Confirmed ORR was 40.4% (95% CI, 27.0-54.9%). Median OS was 18.7 months (95% CI, 10.3-27.0, events in 48%). The most common grade ≥3 treatment-related adverse events were hypertension (11.5%), fatigue (7.7%), nausea (5.8%), and diarrhea (5.8%). The treatment-related death occurred in 2 (3.8%) patients. Main reasons for discontinuation of treatment were disease-progression (62.5%) and toxicity (27.1%). Conclusions: Bmab in combination with UFT/LV is tolerable and effective treatment option for elderly patients (≥75 years old) with mCRC. Further trial with Bmab plus UFT/LV targeting elderly mCRC patients would be warranted. Clinical trial information: 000003515.

6597 Background: Lumiliximab, an anti-CD23 monoclonal antibody, had pharmacologic activity and an outstanding safety profile in a recently completed phase 1, single-agent study. Based on evidence of clinical activity, favorable safety profile, and preclinical data suggesting synergy with both fludarabine and rituximab, we initiated a combination study of lumiliximab with FCR in previously treated patients. Methods: Patients ≥18 years of age with relapsed CD23+ B-cell CLL were eligible for this open-label, dose-escalation, phase 1/2 study. Sample size was planned for ≤37 patients. Patients received either 375 mg/m2 or 500 mg/m2 of lumiliximab in combination with each 28-day cycle of FCR for 6 cycles. Primary objectives were to determine the safety profile, recommended phase 2 dose, and clinical activity of lumiliximab with FCR. Results: Accrual began in June 2004; 30 of the 31 patients were enrolled by December 2005; data are available for 28 patients. No dose-limiting toxicity was noted in the phase 1 component (375 mg/m2 dose, n=3, and 500 mg/m2 dose, n=6) and 500 mg/m2 was chosen for the phase 2 dose. All enrolled patients had progressive, symptomatic CLL as defined by NCI criteria, median 2 prior treatments (range, 1 to 9), median age 58, 64% males, 96% WHO performance status of ≤1. Seventeen patients experienced CTC Grade 3 or 4 adverse events (hematologic toxicity typically associated with FCR). Sixteen patients completed ≥3 cycles of treatment and were evaluated for response using NCI-WG criteria: 7 (44%) patients with confirmed complete responses (CRs); 1 with unconfirmed CR (pending marrow confirmation), 3 with partial responses (PRs), 4 with PRs awaiting confirmation, and 1 with disease progression. Twelve patients are not yet evaluable for response. Conclusions: Lumiliximab in combination with FCR is well tolerated and may enhance the activity of FCR for treatment of patients with progressive CLL after prior therapy. [Table: see text]

Phase 3

TPS787 Background: Imprime PGG (Imprime) is a novel immune modulator (complex carbohydrate biologic), which harnesses innate immune cells to enhance killing of antibody-targeted tumor cells. In a phase 2 single-arm clinical trial in mCRC, the combination of Imprime with cetuximab resulted in 24% ORR, 62% disease control rate (DCR), and median time to progression (TTP) of 12 wks (Tamayo ME, Ann Onc 2010), representing approximate 100% increases vs historical control (Cunningham, NEJM 2004). ORR was 45%, DCR, 82% and TTP, 24 wks in pts with KRAS WT tumors (post hoc analysis). Single-agent cetuximab has been shown to improve objective response rate (ORR), progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) in patients (pts) with epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) expressing, KRAS wild-type (WT) metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC) who failed oxaliplatin- and irinotecan-based therapy or are intolerant to irinotecan. The mechanism of action of cetuximab is thought to rely on competitive blockade of endogenous ligand binding and downstream signaling, internalization and down regulation of EGFR, as well as antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity (ADCC) (Erbitux SmPC). The current trial, sponsored by Biothera (registered with ClinicalTrials.gov NCT01309126) is to confirm these findings in phase 3. Methods: Eligible pts will have had prior oxaliplatin- and irinotecan-based therapy or be intolerant to irinotecan, and will meet key inclusion criteria including measurable disease and ECOG performance status of 0 or 1. In a 2:1 randomization, stratified by geographic region, prior chemotherapy and site, approximately 795 pts will receive weekly open-label Imprime plus cetuximab or cetuximab alone. The primary endpoint of the study is OS and primary analysis will occur when ~709 deaths have occurred. Secondary endpoints include PFS, ORR (based on RECIST 1.1), quality of life, safety and pharmacokinetics. Exploratory endpoints include biomarker analyses. Pt screening and enrollment is underway in the United States and Europe. Clinical trial information: NCT01309126.
