e15585 Background: A previous phase 1b trial has shown encouraging efficacy of regorafenib plus nivolumab in patients with microsatellite stable/mismatch repair proficient (MSS/pMMR) metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC). We aimed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of this regimen in Chinese patients in the real world. Methods: We retrospectively identified patients with MSS/pMMR mCRC who received at least one dose of programmed cell death-1 (PD-1) inhibitors plus regorafenib from 5/2019 to 2/2021 in 10 Chinese medical centers. The primary endpoint was overall survival (OS). Secondary endpoints included progression-free survival (PFS), objective response rate (ORR), disease control rate (DCR) and the safety. Results: Fifty-two patients were identified. Liver metastases were presented in 35 patients (67%). A total of 48 patients (92%) received regorafenib plus a PD-1 inhibitor as the third or later line treatment. At the data cut-off, 11 patients (21%) were still on treatment. Other patients terminated treatment because of progressive disease (45%), treatment-related adverse events (TRAEs) (14%) or treatment-unrelated deaths (6%). The median treatment cycle was 3 (range, 1-18). At a median follow-up of 4.9 months, the median OS was 17.3 months (95% CI, 10.2-NR) and the median PFS was 3.1 months (95%CI, 2.5-6.0). Baseline liver metastases were associated with inferior PFS (2.7 versus 6.3 months, p <0.05), but not OS (17.3 months versus NR, p =0.6). Among 38 patients evaluable for response, two patients (5%) achieved partial response, and 17 patients (45%) experienced stable disease as the best response. The DCR was 50% (95%CI, 5.0-NR) and was similar among different PD-1 inhibitors (Table). TRAEs were observed in 30 patients (58%). Fatigue (21%), hand-foot syndrome (19%) and rash (13%) were the most common TRAEs. Eight patients (15%) experienced grade 3-4 TRAEs, including rash (n=3), hand-foot syndrome (n=2), hypertension (n=1), myocardial enzyme elevation (n=1) and visual field loss (n=1). No treatment-related death occurred. Conclusions: The combination of regorafenib plus PD-1 inhibitors was generally tolerated and exhibited potential benefit in terms of OS and DCR. The presence of baseline liver metastases was predictive for shorter PFS but requires further investigation. Disease control rate of different PD-1 inhibitors.[Table: see text]

e15126 Background: Capecitabine is widely used in the treatment of advanced colorectal cancer. Continuous low dose chemotherapy has been postulated to have anti-angiogenic effects discrete from its anti-proliferative effects on tumors (metronomic therapy). Dalteparin and prednisone have also been implicated in inhibiting tumour angiogenesis and hypothesized to have additive benefit to chemotherapy. This randomized phase II study examined the additive effect of dalteparin and prednisone with capecitabine in metastatic colorectal cancer. Methods: Patients with metastatic colorectal cancer were randomized to either capecitabine (C) 2,500 mg/m2 in divided doses from days 1–14 in a 3-week cycle or capecitabine with dalteparin and prednisone (CDP). There was no restriction on previous treatment, other than no prior capecitabine. Dalteparin was given at 5,000 units once daily subcutaneously, and prednisone orally 10 mg daily, both on a continuous basis. Thirty patients were planned for accrual in each arm with interim analysis when accrual reached fifteen in each arm. The primary end-point was disease control defined as treatment response or stable disease >4 months. Radiological evaluation was performed every 6 weeks. Treatment was discontinued if patients had progressive disease or intolerable toxicity. Results: Thirty patients were recruited. Fourteen patients had received ≥3 previous regimens (median 3 (C), 2 (CDP)). Median performance statuses were ECOG 1 (C) and 0 (CDP). Nine patients achieved stable disease greater than 6 months (5 (C)/4 (CDP)). There was no statistical difference in the median survival time and time-to- progression for the two groups (11.1 mth (C)/15.8 mth (CDP); 3.2 mth (C)/2.8 mth (CDP)). The commonest toxicities overall were myelosuppression and hand-foot syndrome (HFS). The most common Grade 3+ adverse events were HFS (6 patients) and diarrhea (4 patients). Conclusions: The combination of dalteparin, prednisone and capecitabine did not improve disease control over that seen with capecitabine in refractory metastatic colorectal cancer. No significant financial relationships to disclose.

PurposeTo evaluate whether capecitabine plus oxaliplatin (XELOX) is noninferior to fluorouracil. folinic acid, and oxaliplatin (FOLFOX-4) as first-line therapy in metastatic colorectal cancer (MCRC).Patients and MethodsThe initial design of this trial was a randomized, two-arm, noninferiority, phase III comparison of XELOX versus FOLFOX-4. After patient accrual had begun, the trial design was amended in 2003 after bevacizumab phase III data became available. The resulting 2 × 2 factorial design randomly assigned patients to XELOX versus FOLFOX-4, and then to also receive either bevacizumab or placebo. We report here the results of the analysis of the XELOX versus FOLFOX-4 arms. The analysis of bevacizumab versus placebo with oxaliplatin-based chemotherapy is reported separately. The prespecified primary end point for the noninferiority analysis was progression-free survival.ResultsThe intent-to-treat population comprised 634 patients from the original two-arm portion of the study, plus an additional 1,400 patients after the start of the amended 2 × 2 design, for a total of 2,034 patients. The median PFS was 8.0 months in the pooled XELOX-containing arms versus 8.5 months in the FOLFOX-4–containing arms (hazard ratio [HR], 1.04; 97.5% CI, 0.93 to 1.16). The median overall survival was 19.8 months with XELOX versus 19.6 months with FOLFOX-4 (HR, 0.99; 97.5% CI, 0.88 to 1.12). FOLFOX-4 was associated with more grade 3/4 neutropenia/granulocytopenia and febrile neutropenia than XELOX, and XELOX with more grade 3 diarrhea and grade 3 hand-foot syndrome than FOLFOX-4.ConclusionXELOX is noninferior to FOLFOX-4 as a first-line treatment for MCRC, and may be considered as a routine treatment option for appropriate patients.

687 Background: XELOX (capecitabine/L-OHP) therapy that includes orally administered fluoropyrimidine instead of infusional fluorouracil (5-FU) was approved for metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC) in Sep 2009 in Japan. A pivotal trial (NO16966 study) demonstrated the non-inferiority of XELOX to FOLFOX (5-FU/L-OHP/LV) and the superiority of those L-OHP-based regimens plus bevacizumab (BV) to those without in the first-line treatment of mCRC. We evaluated the safety and efficacy of XELO+BV compared with FOLFOX4 or mFOLFOX6 plus BV in the first-line treatment for mCRC patients at a single institute. Methods: Between Jun 2007 and Nov 2008, 85 patients received FOLFOX4+BV (FF4 arm), between Dec 2008 and Sep 2009, 40 patients received mFOLFOX6+BV (FF6 arm), and between Oct 2009 and Sep 2010, 60 patients received XELOX+BV (XELOX arm). The best overall responses were evaluated using RECIST 1.0 during chemotherapeutic treatment, and adverse events were graded according to CTCAE ver.3.0. Progression-free survival (PFS) was estimated by Kaplan-Meier methods. Results: Characteristics of patients of FF4 arm, FF6 arm, and XELOX arm were below: median age, 60 yr vs. 62 yr vs. 60.5 yr; gender (male), 48.2 % vs. 62.5 % vs. 58.3%. The overall response rates (CR+PR) were 61.1 %, 72.5 %, and 75 % (95% CI; 50.6-71.8%, 58.0-87.0%, and 63.7-86.3%). Median PFS were 17.0 months, 15.5 months, and 14.4 months, respectively (cut-off: Aug 31, 2011). There were no statistical significances not only between FF4 arm and FF6 arm (log-rank; p=0.641), but also between XELOX arm and FF4+FF6 (FOLFOX) arm (log-rank; p=0.138). FOLFOX arm was associated with higher incidence of grade 3/4 neutropenia than XELOX arm. Grade3 diarrhea and hand-foot syndrome (HFS) were more frequent in XELOX arm. Conclusions: This study suggests that XELOX arm was equal to FOLFOX arm, regardless of regimen, in tumor response and PFS. Further follow-up is necessary to confirm the benefit on survival.

Objective We performed this meta-analysis to compare the efficacy and toxicity of regorafenib and TAS-102. Methods Electronic databases were searched to identify studies comparing the efficacy and safety of regorafenib and TAS-102 in patients with chemotherapy-refractory metastatic colorectal cancer using pooled analyses. Results Three clinical trials were included in this analysis. Regarding the reasons for treatment discontinuation, regorafenib was significantly associated with disease progression (odds ratio [OR] = 0.33, 95% confidence interval [CI] = 0.21–0.50) and adverse events (OR = 4.38, 95% CI = 2.69–7.13). However, overall (OR = 0.97, 95% CI = 0.81–1.17) and progression-free survival (OR = 1.01, 95% CI = 0.86–1.18) did not significantly differ between the groups. The most common treatment-related adverse events in the regorafenib group were neutropenia (OR = 0.06, 95% CI = 0.03–0.11), hand–foot syndrome (OR = 50.34, 95% CI = 10.44–242.84), and liver dysfunction (OR = 34.51, 95% CI = 8.30–143.43). Conversely, the incidence of thrombocytopenia did not differ between the two groups. Conclusions Regorafenib and TAS-102 have similar efficacy but different adverse event profiles. Differences in the toxicity profiles of the two drugs will help guide treatment selection.

e15074 Background: The aim of this prospective study was to evaluate efficacy and safety of bevacizumab in combination with capecitabine as first line treatment in elderly patients with MCC. Methods: 40 elderly patients (median age 75 years) with MCC have been treated with bevacizumab in combination with capecitabine as their first line therapy. Regimen consisted of bevacizumab 7.5 mg mg/kg on day 1 plus capecitabine 1000 mg/m2 on day 1–14 followed by 7 days rest. Results: The median follow up time at time of ASCO will be 12 months. Median number of 9 cycles was administrated, ranging from 1 to 23. 3 patients (7.5 %) had complete response, 19 patients (47.5 %) had partial response, 11 patients (27.5 %) had stable disease, 1 patient (2.5 %) progressed according to RECIST criteria and 6 patients (15%) were not evaluated yet. Until this report 15 of 40 patients progressed and 9 of 40 patients died. Median time to progression is 6.37 months. Median overall survival will be reported at ASCO 2009 meeting. The most common hematological adverse events were mild (grade I and II): anemia (27.5%) neutropenia (22.5%), and thrombocytopenia (20%). The most common non-hematological toxicity were mild as well (grade I and II): hand-foot syndrome (70%), arterial hypertension (52.5%), proteinuria (45%), hyperbilirubinemia (45%), diarrhea (25%), loss of appetite (23.5%), fever (22.5%), fatigue (17.5%), tearing (17.5%), and nail changes (12.5%). Grade 3 and 4 adverse events occurred rarely: hand-foot syndrome (12.5%), deep vein thrombosis (7.5%), fever (5%), and arterial hypertension (2.5%). Conclusions: This prospective phase II study has demonstrated that bevacizumab in combination with capecitabine as first line treatment in elderly patients with metastatic colorectal cancer is an effective and well-tolerated regimen.
