PURPOSE This is a phase Ib trial of regorafenib plus nivolumab for gastric and colorectal cancer. PATIENTS AND METHODS Enrolled patients received regorafenib plus nivolumab in a dose-finding part to estimate the maximum tolerated dose. Additional patients were enrolled in a dose-expansion part. Regorafenib of 80-160 mg was administered once daily for 21 days on/7 days off with nivolumab 3 mg/kg every 2 weeks. The primary end point was dose-limiting toxicity (DLT) during the first 4 weeks to estimate the recommended dose. RESULTS Fifty patients (25 each with gastric and colorectal cancer) were enrolled. All patients had received ≥ 2 previous lines of chemotherapy, including anti-angiogenetic inhibitors in 96% of patients. Seven patients with gastric cancer had previously been treated with immune checkpoint inhibitors. One patient had microsatellite instability–high colorectal cancer, whereas the remaining patients had microsatellite stable or mismatch repair–proficient tumors. Three DLTs (grade 3 colonic perforation, maculopapular rash, and proteinuria) were observed with regorafenib 160 mg; none were observed with 80 or 120 mg. During the dose-expansion part, regorafenib dose was reduced from 120 to 80 mg because of frequent maculopapular rash. The common grade ≥ 3 treatment-related adverse events were rash (12%), proteinuria (12%), and palmar-plantar erythrodysesthesia (10%). Objective tumor response was observed in 20 patients (40%), including 11 with gastric cancer (44%) and 9 with colorectal cancer (36%). Median progression-free survival was 5.6 and 7.9 months in patients with gastric and colorectal cancer, respectively. CONCLUSION The combination of regorafenib 80 mg plus nivolumab had a manageable safety profile and encouraging antitumor activity in patients with gastric and colorectal cancer, which warrants additional investigations in larger cohorts.

351 Background: FOLFIRINOX is an approved regimen for metastatic pancreatic cancer (mPC). We performed a modification in FOLFIRINOX schedule, using nab-paclitaxel (nab-p) to obtain two regimens that could be as effective and less toxic than the original triplet. NabucCO study was a randomized phase II trial to assess activity and toxicity of nab-p instead of either oxaliplatin (Nab-FOLFIRI) or irinotecan (Nab-FOLFOX) in first line setting. Previous dose–finding NabucCO study defined that maximum tolerated dose of nab-p with FOLFIRI is 120 mg/m2, and with FOLFOX is 160 mg/m2. Methods: The study was a 1:1 parallel arm, open label, not comparative one to assess overall response rate (ORR) of Nab-FOLFIRI and Nab-FOLFOX as primary end-point. Patients (pts) with PS 0-1, untreated for mPC were randomized to receive leucovorin 400 mg/m2, 5FU bolus 400 mg/m2, 5FU 48h ci 2400 mg/m2, irinotecan 180 mg/m2 plus nab-p 120 mg/m2 (arm A) or leucovorin 400 mg/m2, 5FU bolus 400 mg/m2, 5FU 48h ci 2400 mg/m2 and oxaliplatin 85 mg/m2 iv plus nab-p 160 mg/m2 (arm B) every 2 weeks for up to 12 cycles. Secondary end points were clinical benefit rate (CBR), progression free survival (PFS), overall survival (OS), and safety. Results: From November 2015 to January 2017, 84 pts were treated (42 for each arm). Median age was 60 years (29-65) in arm A and 64 years (47-64) in arm B. The ORR was 31 % for both schedules, with a CBR of 69% and 71%, respectively. At a median follow-up of 11.4 months for arm A and 14.5 months for arm B (censored on august, 31th 2017), 1-year survival is 41% and 50%, respectively. For Nab-FOLFIRI PFS and mOS were 6 months (90% CI: 4.9-8.0) and 13.2 months (90% CI: 8.3-14.8), while in Nab-FOLFOX were 5.6 months (90% CI:4.9-7.2) and 10.8 months (90% CI: 8.4-12.8). Grade ≥3 toxicities in arm A were neutropenia (19%) and febrile neutropenia (12%). In arm B, main grade ≥3 toxicities were neutropenia (29%), fatigue (14%), peripheral neuropathy (7%). No toxic death were registered. Conclusions: Nab-FOLFIRI and Nab–FOLFOX demonstrated a similar activity to FOLFIRINOX, with better safety profile in terms of neutropenia, fatigue and neuropathy. These results could justify a future phase III evaluation. Clinical trial information: NCT02109341.

e15551 Background: A combination of anti-vascular endothelial growth factor receptor(anti-VEGFR) and anti-programmed cell death-1/ligand 1 (PD-1/L1) may synergize with each other and lead to better anti-tumor efficacy. We aimed to assess the safety and preliminary efficacy of combination therapy with geptanolimab (GB226, a highly selective, fully human monoclonal antibody PD-1 mAb) plus fruquintinib (a VEGFR inhibitor) in previously treated metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC) patients. Methods: In this phase Ib trial, we enrolled mCRC patients who had failed one or two standard therapies. Patients were given geptanolimab (3mg/kg every 2 weeks) and fruquintinib (once daily for 21 days on/7 days off with planned dose cohorts of 3mg, 4mg, and 5mg) on a 28-day cycle. A standard 3+3 design was employed to determine the primary endpoints of the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and/or the recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D) based on dose-limiting toxicities (DLT). Secondary endpoints included objective response rate (ORR), duration of response (DOR), disease control rate (DCR), progression free survival (PFS), and overall survival (OS). Results: By December 15, 2020, 15 patients were enrolled: 1 with MSI-H, 12 with MSS, and 2 with MS unknown. Ten out of 15 patients (66.7%) had received ≥2 previous lines of treatment including chemotherapy in combination with anti-EGFR (33.3%) or anti-VEGF (53.3%). Seven patients (46.7%) were found to have the PD-L1 combined positive score (CPS)≥1. Two DLTs (one patient with grade 3 ALT and AST elevation and one patient with grade 3 proteinuria) were identified in fruqintinib 5mg cohort (6 patients enrolled). No DLT was observed in either 3mg (3 patients enrolled) or 4mg (6 patients enrolled) cohorts. RP2D of this combination was identified as geptanolimab (3mg/kg, every 2 weeks) and fruquintinib (4mg, once daily for 21 days on/7 days off). In all evaluable patients, the overall ORR was 26.7% (4/15, 3 confirmed PR, 1 unconfirmed PR), and the ORR was 33.3% (2/6) in the RP2D group. The DCR for all evaluable patients was 80%, and the median PFS (mPFS) was 7.33 months (95% CI: 1.91 – NE). The median DOR and median OS was not reached at the data cut-off date. Among 12 patients with MSS, the ORR was 25.0% (3/12, 2 confirmed PR, 1 unconfirmed PR), DCR was 75% and mPFS was 5.45 months (95% CI: 1.84-9.66). All patients had at least 1 treatment related AE (TRAE). The common TRAE were proteinuria (46.7%), hypertension (46.7%), and elevated aspartate aminotransferase (40.0%). Grade 3 AEs were observed in 46.7% of patients and the most common grade 3 AE was hypertension (20.0%). No grade 4 and 5 TRAE was observed. Conclusions: The combination of geptanolimab and fruquintinib had manageable safety profiles and encouraging anti-tumor activity in mCRC patients. Clinical trial information: NCT03977090.

2522 Background: Immune suppressive cells such as regulatory T cells (Tregs) or tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs) may contribute to resistance to anti-PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitors (A-PD1). Regorafenib, a potent inhibitor of angiogenic and oncogenic kinases, reduced TAMs in tumor models. The combination of regorafenib plus A-PD1 exhibited superior tumor growth suppression compared to either treatment alone in murine models. Methods: In this study, we enrolled patients (pts) with previously treated, advanced GC or CRC. The pts received regorafenib plus nivolumab in a dose-finding phase to estimate the maximum tolerated dose (MTD). Additional pts were enrolled in a dose-expansion phase to further establish the safety and determine the preliminary efficacy. Regorafenib of 80 to 160 mg was administered once daily for 21 on 7 days off with intravenous nivolumab 3 mg/kg every 2 weeks. The primary endpoint was dose-limiting toxicity (DLT) during cycle one (4 weeks) to estimate the MTD and the recommended dose. Results: Fifty pts were enrolled (25 GC; 25 CRC) until October 2018. The median prior treatment line was 3 (range 2-8). During dose-escalation, 3 DLTs were observed with regorafenib 160 mg, including grade (G) 3 maculopapular rash, mucositis and proteinuria, while there was no DLT with 80 or 120 mg. In the dose expansion cohort with regorafenib 120 mg, the dose was reduced to 80 mg owing to frequent G3 skin toxicities. Grade ≥ 3 treatment related adverse events occurred in 17 pts; the common events ( > 5%) being rash (14%), palmar-plantar erythrodysesthesia (10%), and proteinuria (8%). Objective tumor response was observed in 19 pts (38%) including 11 MSS GC, 7 MSS CRC and 1 MSI-H CRC for response rates of 44% in GC and 29% in MSS CRC. Three of the 7 A-PD1 pretreated GC pts achieved a partial response. The pre- and post-treatment tumor samples showed a reduction of FoxP3hiCD45RA-Tregs fraction at the tumor response. Conclusions: The combination of regorafenib 80mg plus nivolumab had a manageable safety profiles and encouraging anti-tumor activity in MSS GC and CRC pts, which warrants further investigations in a larger cohort. Updated biomarker analysis will be presented. Clinical trial information: NCT03406871.

Purpose To evaluate the tolerability and effectiveness of uracil-tegafur (UFT) with leucovorin (LV) in the treatment of elderly patients with advanced colorectal cancer. Patients and Methods Patients ≥ 75 years of age with previously untreated colorectal cancer were eligible for this phase II, single-arm, open-label, multicenter cooperative group clinical trial. UFT 100 mg/m2 plus LV 30 mg orally every 8 hours for 28 days every 35 days was administered until progression. Results Fifty-eight patients were enrolled between June 2000 and July 2001, and 55 were treated. The median age of treated patients was 81 years (range, 75 to 90 years), 26 patients were (47%) women, and 80% had good performance status (0 to 1). The observed overall response rate was 22% (95% CI, 11.8% to 35.0%). The estimated median overall survival time was 13.0 months (95% CI, 9.6 to 17.4 months), and median progression-free survival time was 4.6 months (95% CI, 2.6 to 6.7 months). Among the 56 treated patients (including one ineligible patient), 31 (55%) experienced grade 3 to 4 toxicities, most commonly diarrhea (25%) and GI toxicity (36%), with patients older than 85 years of age at highest risk. Conclusion The results of this trial support the efficacy of oral UFT/LV in elderly patients with colorectal cancer. The regimen is tolerated moderately well overall, particularly as compared with other fluoropyrimidine regimens, although there is increased GI toxicity in the most elderly. These results suggest that studies using newer oral fluoropyrimidine analogs should be investigated in this patient population.

We report results of our prospective pilot trial (NCT02917096) evaluating safety/feasibility of peri-transplant administration of ruxolitinib for myelofibrosis treatment. Primary objectives were to determine the safety and identify maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of ruxolitinib. Ruxolitinib was given at two dose levels (DL) of 5 and 10mg twice daily, with fludarabine/melphalan conditioning regimen and tacrolimus/sirolimus GVHD prophylaxis. We enrolled 6 and 12 patients in DL-1 and DL-2, respectively. Median age at transplant was 65 years (range:25-73) for all patients. Per DIPSS, 4 patients were at high and 14 were at intermediate risk. PBSCs was the graft source from a matched sibling (n=5) or unrelated (n=13) donor. At each DL one patient developed DLTs: Grade 3 cardiac and GI with Grade 4 pulmonary in DL-1 and Grade 3 kidney injury in DL-2. All patients achieved engraftment. Cumulative incidence (CI) of acute GVHD grade 2-4 and 3-4 were 17% (95% CI: 6-47) and 11% (95% CI: 3-41), respectively. CI of 1-year chronic GVHD was 42% (95% CI: 24-74). With the median follow-up of 22.6 months (range:6.2-25.8) in surviving patients the 1-year overall and progression free survival were 77% (95% CI: 50-91) and 71% (95% CI: 44-87), respectively. Causes of death (n=4) were cardiac arrest, GVHD, respiratory failure, and refractory GVHD of liver. Our results showed that peri-HCT ruxolitinib was safe and well-tolerated with the MTD determined as 10 mg BID, associated with dose-dependent PK and cytokine profile. The early efficacy data are highly promising in this group of high-risk older patients with MF.

3559 Background: The MORPHEUS platform consists of multiple, global, open-label, randomized Phase Ib/II trials designed to identify early efficacy and safety signals of treatment (tx) combinations across cancers. Here, atezo (anti-PD-L1) was tested with Imprime and bev (anti-VEGF) for MSS mCRC, a poorly immunogenic cancer generally resistant to checkpoint inhibitors. Imprime acts as a pathogen-associated molecular pattern that, when bound to anti-β glucan antibodies (ABA), activates the innate immune system with the potential to 1) promote priming and expansion of tumor-specific T cells, 2) promote M2-M1 macrophage polarization and 3) enhance the immunomodulatory effects of atezo and bev. Therefore, we hypothesized that atezo + Imprime + bev would induce an antitumor response beyond that of rego, a standard-of-care multikinase inhibitor, in patients (pts) with MSS mCRC. Methods: Pts with MSS mCRC unselected for the Imprime-specific biomarker (ABA) and refractory to 1-2 prior lines of standard therapy received atezo (1200 mg IV every 3 weeks [q3w]) + Imprime (4 mg/kg IV on Days 1, 8, 15) + bev (7.5 mg/kg IV q3w) or control tx with rego (160 mg orally days 1-21; dose escalation to 160 mg during Cycle 1 allowed per institutional guidelines). The primary endpoint was objective response rate (ORR; investigator-assessed RECIST 1.1); secondary endpoints included disease control rate (DCR; response or stable disease ≥ 12 weeks), progression-free survival (PFS), overall survival (OS) and safety. Results: Pts were followed-up for ≥18 wk. 15 pts received atezo + Imprime + bev and 13 received rego. Grade (Gr) 3/4 tx-related adverse events (TRAEs) were seen in 13% of atezo + Imprime + bev and 62% of rego pts. No Gr 5 AEs occurred in atezo + Imprime + bev pts and 1 (8%) was reported in a rego pt. One pt in each arm (7% vs 8%, respectively) withdrew from tx due to a TRAE. No radiological responses were seen in either arm. Five pts (33%) receiving atezo + Imprime + bev and 8 (62%) receiving rego had stable disease as best response. DCR was 13% with atezo + Imprime + bev and 23% with rego. Median PFS was 1.5 mo (95% CI: 1.4, 2.8) and 2.8 mo (95% CI: 1.6, 3.1), and median OS was 5.7 mo (95% CI: 4.4, 10.5) and 10.2 mo (95% CI: 4.8, NE) with atezo + Imprime + bev and rego, respectively. There was no apparent correlation between baseline PD-L1 expression or CD8+ lymphocyte tumor infiltration and clinical benefit. Further, the systemic exposure of atezo, Imprime and bev and immunogenicity of atezo and bev are in line with previous clinical experience. Additional biomarker, pharmacokinetics and anti-drug antibody data will be shown. Conclusions: Atezo + Imprime + bev was well tolerated; toxicities were consistent with the safety profiles of the individual agents. No efficacy signal was identified with atezo + Imprime + bev in pts with MSS refractory mCRC. Clinical trial information: NCT03555149.

5075 Background: Vascular endothelial growth factors (VEGFs) and VEGF receptors (VEGFRs) are important mediators of tumor growth and metastasis and their expression is associated with poor prognosis in EOC. PTK/ZK is a novel, oral, angiogenesis and lymphangiogenesis inhibitor that blocks tyrosine kinase signaling from all known VEGFRs. Methods: An open label, multicenter, phase IB dose escalation study evaluating PTK/ZK with chemotherapy as first line therapy in Pts with stage IC to IV EOC. Maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and dose limiting toxicity (DLT) of PTK/ZK were assessed; PK of PTK/ZK, carboplatin and paclitaxel was characterized. Paclitaxel was administered as a 3-hour infusion on day 1 of each 21-day cycle at a dose of 175 mg/m2. Carboplatin was given immediately after paclitaxel as a 30-min IV infusion to AUC of 5 mg min/mL. PTK/ZK was given once daily from day 3 to day 21 of each chemotherapy cycle. Cohorts of 3 to 6 Pts received doses of PTK/ZK at 250, 500, 750, 1000 or 1250 mg/day. Dose expansion in 21 additional Pts was conducted with 1250 mg/day without reaching MTD. After completion of chemotherapy, PTK/ZK was given continuously until disease progression. PK samples were collected in cycle 1 (without PTK/ZK) and cycle 2 (after PTK/ZK pre-treatment). Results: 42 Pts were enrolled. To date 39 Pts are evaluated for safety, 19 Pts for DLT, 35 Pts for PK and 21 Pts with residual disease for tumor response. No DLTs were reported. The most frequently observed grade 3/4 toxicity was neutropenia (31%), leucopenia (18%) and hypertension (10%). PTK/ZK did not aggravate chemotherapy related side effects. To date 67% of Pts had achieved CR/PR, 9% SD, 5% PD and 19% UNK. PTK/ZK exposure at steady state was similar in cycle 1 and 2. PTK/ZK had no impact on the systemic exposure of carboplatin. Paclitaxel exposure was decreased by an average of 18% in cycle 2 compared to cycle 1 for Pts treated with PTK/ZK 1250 mg/day. Conclusion: Combination of PTK/ZK with paclitaxel and carboplatin is feasible and shows favorable safety profile. The combination is active in EOC and deserves further evaluation. [Table: see text]

14005 Background: AMG 706 is an oral, investigational multikinase inhibitor (MKI) with antiangiogenic and direct antitumor activity achieved by selectively targeting VEGF, PDGF and Kit receptors. Methods: This is a fully enrolled, phase 1b, open-label, dose- finding study. The objectives are to determine the maximum tolerated dose and to assess safety and PK of AMG 706 in pts with solid tumors receiving AMG 706 plus gemcitabine. Pts =18 years with ECOG 0–2 and no prior treatment with bevacizumab or VEGFr MKIs were assigned to cohorts receiving escalating doses of AMG 706 (50mg QD, 125mg QD or 75mg BID continuously from day 2 of cycle 1) plus gemcitabine (1000mg/m2 weekly for 7/8 wks, then 3/4 wks per cycle) for up to 11 cycles. Assessments include dose-limiting toxicities (DLT) (weeks 1–4) and tumor response (every 3 months). Results: 26 pts were enrolled and received at least 1 dose of AMG 706 (50mg QD n=11; 125mg QD n=6; 75mg BID n=9). All but 2 pts have completed the study. Median (range) age was 57 (25–77) yrs. 65% of pts received prior chemotherapy; 4 pts received prior gemcitabine (50mg QD n=2; 125mg QD n=1; 75mg BID n=1). There were 2 DLTs: grade 4 neutropenia (125mg QD), grade 3 deep vein thrombosis (75mg BID). Treatment-related adverse events (AE) occurring in = 10% of pts are shown in the table . The mean AMG 706 PK profiles were not markedly different when AMG 706 was dosed on the same day or 24 hours after gemcitabine administration. Objective tumor responses per RECIST for 26 evaluable pts were: 2 unconfirmed PR (50mg QD n=1; 125mg QD n=1), 7 SD (50mg QD n=3; 125mg QD n=1; 75mg BID n=3), 11 PD (50mg QD n=7; 125mg QD n=3; 75mg BID n=1), and 6 not available (125mg QD n=1; 75mg BID n=5). Conclusions: These preliminary data suggest that, in pts with solid tumors, AMG 706 combined with gemcitabine had an expected AE profile at the target once-daily dose of 125mg QD, with little effect on AMG 706 PK. The data provide a foundation for conducting further trials, potentially including biliary tumors. Final data will be presented. [Table: see text] No significant financial relationships to disclose.

3619^ Background: Patients (pts) with unresectable colorectal cancer liver-only metastases (CLMs) may become resectable after downsizing by chemotherapy (CT) and biologic therapy. Although biologics are thought to improve overall response rate (ORR), the optimal combination of a biologic and CT for resectability remains uncertain. Methods: This open-label, multinational study randomized pts with unresectable CLMs to bevacizumab (BEV) plus mFOLFOX6 or FOLFOXIRI q2w. Resectability was assessed by interdisciplinary review. Unresectability was defined as ≥1 of the following: no possibility of upfront R0/R1 resection of all hepatic lesions, <30% estimated residual liver after resection, or disease in contact with major vessels of the remnant liver. The primary end point was overall resection rate (R0/R1/R2). Results: From 10/2008 to 12/2011, 80 pts were randomized to mFOLFOX6-BEV (n=39) or FOLFOXIRI-BEV (n=41). Pt characteristics were male (46% vs 71%), aged ≥60 y (36% vs 63%), ECOG PS of 1 (23% vs 37%), and ≥5 target CLMs (49% vs 49%) in the mFOLFOX6-BEV and FOLFOXIRI-BEV arms, respectively. Resection rate, ORR, and progression-free survival (PFS) data are shown (Table). Grade ≥3 adverse events (AEs) occurred in 84% and 95% of pts receiving mFOLFOX6-BEV and FOLFOXIRI-BEV, respectively, and included neutropenia (35% vs 48%; febrile, 8% vs 13%) and diarrhea (14% vs 28%). Conclusions: The results suggest that FOLFOXIRI-BEV improves resection rates, ORR, and long-term outcomes vs mFOLFOX6-BEV in pts with initially unresectable CLMs. CT- and BEV-related AEs occurred with the expected incidence and were manageable. FOLFOXIRI-BEV should be evaluated further as an effective regimen to downsize CLMs. Clinical trial information: NCT00778102. [Table: see text]

72^ Background: Gastric cancer (GC) is the second leading cause of cancer death in Japan as well as globally. Effective treatment of GC remains a therapeutic challenge. Although in the AVAGAST trial, bevacizumab was found to offer no survival benefit. Angiogenesis continues to be the standard treatment for GC, and thus, clinical trials on many anti-angiogenic drugs have been conducted. TSU-68 (orantinib) is an oral, angiokinase inhibitor targeting the vascular endothelial growth factor receptor 2, platelet-derived growth factor receptor β, and fibroblast growth factor receptor 1. The present study evaluated the progression-free survival (PFS) and pharmacokinetics (PK) of TSU-68 in combination with Japanese standard S-1 and cisplatin (S-1/CDDP) in patients with advanced GC. Methods: In this open-label, multicenter, randomized, controlled, parallel-group, phase II trial, patients were randomized to Arm A (S-1/CDDP) or Arm B (TSU-68 plus S-1/CDDP). All patients received oral S-1 (40-60 mg/m2) twice daily for 21 days followed by a 14 day rest plus intravenous CDDP (60 mg/m2) on Day 8, repeated every 35 days. In Arm B pts received oral TSU-68 (400 mg/dose) alone, twice daily by addition 35 days. The primary endpoint was PFS. Results: In total, 93 patients were enrolled. For Arm A [male:female ratio], n=47 [35:11]; Arm B, n=45 [30:15]; the respective median age was 63.5 and 62.0 years. The median PFS was 7.0 and 6.8 months in Arms A and B, respectively (HR, 1.23; 95%CI, 0.74 to 2.05; P=0.425); the respective response rates were 56.5% and 62.2%. The most common grade 3/4 toxicities were neutropenia (Arms A and B, 34.8% and 31.1%) and hemoglobin (Arms A and B, 26.1% and 48.9%). There were no differences in other toxicities between the 2 arms, both treatments were tolerated, and no treatment-related deaths were observed. In the PK study, although Arm B had a significantly lower plasma exposure to FT, CDHP, and Oxo compared to Arm A, the exposure to 5-FU was not different between the 2 arms. The exposure to CDDP in Arm B was significantly but slightly lower than that in arm A. Conclusions: Thus,TSU-68 plus S-1/CDDP therapy did not prolong PFS of patients with advanced GC as compared with S-1/CDDP. Clinical trial information: JapicCTI-101327.
