3548 Background: Panitumumab is a fully human monoclonal antibody directed against EGFr. We investigated panitumumab antitumor activity in pts who failed prior therapy and had EGFr tumor expression levels ≥ 10%. Methods: In this multicenter, phase 2 study of 300 planned pts, pts had documentation of disease progression (PD) during or following adequate doses of fluoropyrimidine, irinotecan, and oxaliplatin (centrally confirmed refractory disease [CCRD]), 2–3 prior regimens, ECOG score 0–2, and EGFr staining (by IHC) in ≥ 10% of evaluable tumor cells. Pts received panitumumab at 6 mg/kg Q2W until PD. Tumor assessments (modified WHO, blinded central review) were taken periodically from wk 8–48 until PD. Study endpoints were objective response rate (ORR) at wk 16 (+ ≥ 4 wk confirmation; primary) and ORR throughout study, response duration, progression-free survival (PFS) time, survival time, and safety (secondary). Results: In this interim analysis (5/05), 91 enrolled pts received ≥ 1 dose of panitumumab (safety set); 39 had ≥ 20 wks before the cutoff and CCRD (efficacy set). The efficacy set consisted of 23M/16W, mean (SD) age of 58.6 (10.1) years, 82% white, 95% ECOG ≤ 1, 74% colon cancer and 26% rectal cancer; all had ≥ 2 prior regimens (equivalent characteristics for safety set). At wk 16, 3 (8%) had a partial response, 8 (21%) had stable disease, and 19 (49%) had PD as best OR (9 not done/unevaluable). At the time of this interim analysis, response durations were 12.4, 13.2, and 14.0 wks. In the safety set, 96% had at least 1 treatment-related adverse event (24% grade [gr] 3, 1% gr 4, 1% gr 5). Integument and eye toxicities were: 96% skin, 30% nail, 8% eye, 5% hair, and 7% chelitis. 25 (27%) had diarrhea (3 gr 3); 11 (12%) had hypomagnesemia (3 gr 3/4). One pt had a gr 3 hypersensitivity reaction considered related to panitumumab, received medication, and the event resolved; this pt continued treatment with premedication; no further reactions occurred. In 66 pts with both a baseline and postdose sample, no human anti-human antibodies to panitumumab were detected.Additional data will be presented. Conclusions: Panitumumab has antitumor activity and is well tolerated in pts with EGFr tumor expression levels ≥ 10% who failed standard chemotherapy. [Table: see text]

3547 Background: Panitumumab is a fully human monoclonal antibody directed against EGFr. We investigated the antitumor activity of panitumumab in pts with mCRC who failed prior therapy and had low or negative EGFr tumor expression. Methods: In this multicenter, phase 2 study of 150 planned pts, pts had documentation of disease progression (PD) during or after adequate doses of fluoropyrimidine, irinotecan, and oxaliplatin (centrally confirmed refractory disease [CCRD]), 2–3 prior regimens, ECOG score 0–2, and low or negative EGFr staining (by IHC) in evaluable tumor cells. Pts received panitumumab at 6 mg/kg Q2W until PD or drug intolerability. Tumor assessments (modified WHO, blinded central review) were taken periodically from wk 8 until PD. Endpoints were objective response (OR) through wk 16 (+ ≥ 4 wk confirmation; primary) and OR throughout study, response duration, progression-free survival (PFS) time, survival time, and safety (secondary). Results: In this interim analysis (6/05), 88 pts were enrolled and had ≥ 1 dose of panitumumab (safety set); 23 pts had ≥ 20 wks before the cutoff and CCRD (efficacy set). The efficacy set consisted of 16M/7W, median age of 65 (range: 46, 85) yrs, 83% white, 100% with ECOG ≤ 1, 74% colon cancer and 26% rectal cancer; all received ≥ 2 prior regimens (equivalent characteristics for safety set). 2/11 (18%) pts with EGFr-negative tumors and 1/12 (8%) with low EGFr staining had a partial response. Duration was up to 16 wks. 7/23 (30%) of all pts had SD. Median (95% CI) PFS was 7.9 (7.0, 23.0) wks. In the safety set, all pts had a treatment-related adverse event; 19% grade (gr) 3; 2% gr 4. Integument and eye toxicities were: 92% skin, 17% eye, 28% nail, 8% hair, and 2% chelitis. 20 (23%) had diarrhea (1 gr 3); 7 (8%) had hypomagnesemia (2 gr 3/4). Three pts had an infusion reaction-1 gr 3 (led to panitumumab discontinuation) and 2 gr 1/2. In 65 pts with both a baseline and post-baseline sample, no human anti-human antibodies to panitumumab were detected. Updated data will be presented. Conclusions: Responses to panitumumab were seen in pts with mCRC with both low and negative EGFr levels. Efficacy appears similar to that in other studies with panitumumab in pts with higher EGFr tumor levels. [Table: see text]

4082 Background: Panitumumab, a fully human monoclonal antibody against EGFr, is approved for EGFr-expressing mCRC pts with disease progression (PD) on or after fluoropyrimidine-, oxaliplatin-, and irinotecan-containing chemotherapy. However, the predictive value of EGFr tumor-membrane staining as measured by immunohistochemistry (IHC) is undetermined. Methods: This multicenter, single arm, phase 2 study enrolled pts with documented PD during or after fluoropyrimidine and adequate doses of irinotecan and oxaliplatin, and within 6 months after the most recent chemotherapy regimen (determined by an independent eligibility review committee [IERC]), 2–3 prior regimens, and low (1%-9%) or negative (<1%) EGFr tumor membrane staining (by IHC). Pts received panitumumab 6mg/kg Q2W until PD or intolerability. Tumor assessments (modified WHO, blinded central review) were performed every 8 weeks until PD or discontinuation. Endpoints were objective response rate (ORR) through wk 16 (+ =4 wk confirmation; primary), overall ORR, response duration, progression-free survival (PFS), and safety (secondary). Results: In this interim analysis, 91 pts had =20 wks of potential follow-up and comprised the IERC efficacy set; 118 pts comprised the evaluable safety set (=20 wks potential follow-up). In the IERC efficacy set, 57% were male, 86% were white, and median age (range) was 61 (26–85) years. ORR through week 16 is shown; overall ORR was the same ( Table ). The most common adverse events (all, grade 3/4) were dermatitis acneiform (72%, 6%), erythema (69%, 6%), pruritus (65%, 4%), and hypomagnesaemia by lab values (53%, 10%). Four pts (3%) had an infusion reaction per investigator (1 was grade 3). Conclusions: This analysis confirms earlier findings that panitumumab has anti-tumor activity in pts with low or undetectable EGFr tumor membrane levels as measured by IHC. This study has completed enrollment, and updated data will be presented. [Table: see text] No significant financial relationships to disclose.

7119 Introduction: AMG 706 is an investigational, oral, multi-kinase inhibitor with both antiangiogenic and direct antitumor activity targeting VEGF, PDGF, and Kit receptors. Panitumumab, a fully human monoclonal antibody directed against the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFr), has shown antitumor activity and acceptable safety in pts with solid tumors. Methods: This is an ongoing, multicenter, dose finding, phase 1b study of AMG 706 with panitumumab and CP in pts with advanced NSCLC. Primary objectives were to assess the safety and PK of AMG 706; secondary objectives included drug exposure and objective response rates. Pts had stage IIIB/IV NSCLC, ECOG score of 0–1, no symptomatic or untreated CNS metastases, and no prior chemotherapy for NSCLC (segments A&C) or ≤ 1 regimen for NSCLC (segment B). AMG 706 was given orally either QD (50 mg or 125 mg) or BID (75 mg) with CP Q3W (P:200 mg/m2; C: AUC = 6 mg/mL · min; Segment A), with panitumumab (9.0 mg/kg Q3W; Segment B), or with CP+ panitumumab (Segment C). AMG 706 was dosed continuously in 21-day cycles (days 3–21 in cycle 1; days 1–21 in cycle 2 and beyond); pts were sequentially enrolled into escalating AMG 706 dose cohorts. Results: As of 9/05, 22 pts were enrolled (10 in A, 12 in B) into AMG 706 dose cohorts of 50 mg and 125 mg QD. In A and B, respectively, 7 and 6 pts were men; median (range) age was 60.5 (60, 74) and 60.5 (55.7, 71.0). One pt in the 125 mg QD cohort in Segment B had grade (gr) 5 pneumonia. Treatment-related adverse events occurring in >5% of all patients are summarized ( table ). Preliminary data showed that AMG 706 PK profiles were similar when administered with CP either 30 min or 48 hrs apart. At 50 mg QD, there was no effect of AMG 706 on the PK of P. Conclusions: Preliminary data indicate that AMG 706 can be combined safely with CP or panitumumab in pts with advanced NSCLC and that there is no effect on the PK of AMG 706 or P. Updated data will be presented. [Table: see text] [Table: see text]

4134 Background: Panitumumab, a fully human monoclonal antibody against the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFr), is approved for EGFr-expressing mCRC patients (pts) with disease progression (PD) on or following fluoropyrimidine (5FU)-, oxaliplatin (Ox)-, and irinotecan (Ir)-containing chemotherapy. Skin toxicities are common with panitumumab; we examined the association between severity of skin toxicity and panitumumab efficacy. Methods: Data from 5 clinical trials were pooled (4 phase II studies and 1 phase III study). Pts with mCRC had documented PD on or after 5FU, Ox, and/or Ir. Pts received panitumumab 6 mg/kg every two weeks (Q2W) or 2.5 mg/kg weekly (QW) until PD or intolerability. Tumors were assessed using modified WHO or RECIST criteria (blinded central review in 4/5 studies). Endpoints included objective response rate (ORR), progression-free survival (PFS), and overall survival (OS). PFS and OS were measured from enrollment. Only pts with =2 infusions (exposure over 2 wks for QW dosing or over 4 weeks for Q2W dosing) were analyzed to help correct for lead-time bias. Results: 612 of 640 pts were included in the analysis set (62% were male, 92% were white, and median age [range] was 61 [21, 88] years). The median (95% CI) duration of PFS was 8.4 weeks (8.0 to 11.3), the median (95% CI) survival was 6.9 months (6.2 to 7.9), and the ORR (95% CI) was 9.0% (6.8 to 11.5). The most common skin toxicities (any grade, grade 3/4) were erythema (54%, 4%) pruritus (53%, 2%), dermatitis acneiform (52%, 5%), and rash (39%, 2%). ORR, PFS, and OS appeared to favor pts with grade 2–4 skin toxicity vs pts with grade 0- 1 skin toxicity ( table ). Conclusion: In this large combined analysis, severity of skin rash was correlated with increased efficacy of panitumumab in terms of ORR, PFS, and OS.

TPS8113 Background: Elotuzumab (Elo) is a humanized monoclonal IgG1 antibody targeting the cell surface glycoprotein CS1, which is highly expressed on >95% of MM cells. In a MM xenograft mouse model, the combination of Elo + lenalidomide (Len) significantly reduced tumor volume in a synergistic manner compared with either agent alone. In a phase 2 study (N=73) of Elo (10 or 20 mg/kg) in combination with Len and low-dose-dexamethasone (Dex) in pts with RR MM, the 10 mg/kg dose group (n=36) demonstrated objective response rates (ORR) of 92% in all pts, and 100% in pts who had received only 1 prior therapy (n=16). The higher response rate in pts with fewer prior lines of therapy provides a rationale for investigating this combination earlier in the disease course. This randomized, open-label, phase 3 trial will determine if the addition of Elo to Len/Dex improves progression-free survival (PFS) in pts with newly diagnosed, untreated MM. Methods: Pts (N=750) with newly diagnosed symptomatic MM ineligible for stem cell transplant will be randomized in a 1:1 ratio to receive 28-day cycles of Len 25 mg PO (days1-21) and Dex 40 mg PO (days 1, 8, 15 and 22) with or without Elo. Elo dose and schedule is 10 mg/kg IV on days 1, 8, 15, 22 in the first 2 cycles and on days 1 and 15 of cycles 3-18 followed by 20 mg/kg on day 1 of cycle 19 onward. Dex 8 mg IV + 28 mg PO is used during the weeks with Elo. Treatment will continue until disease progression, death, or withdrawal of consent. Pts will be followed up for response every 4 weeks until progressive disease and for survival every 16 weeks. The primary endpoint is PFS (90% power for a hazard ratio [experimental to control arm] of 0.74) and the secondary endpoints are ORR and overall survival. Exploratory endpoints are safety, time to response, duration of response, time to subsequent therapy, health-related quality of life, and pharmacokinetics and immunogenicity of Elo. Potential biomarkers will also be assessed. As of January 1, 2012, 13 pts were enrolled and 9 pts were treated. NCT01335399.

93 Background: Poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) inhibitors (PARPi) show antitumor activity in mCRPC/DDRm pts treated with novel hormonal therapy (NHT). TALAPRO-1 is an open-label study evaluating TALA (a potent PARP inhibitor/trapper) in men with mCRPC/DDRm. We report a planned interim analysis (IA; Dec 2019). Updated results at a Sep 4 2020 cut-off, available in November 2020, will be presented at the meeting. Methods: TALAPRO-1 (NCT03148795) is enrolling pts (N ≈ 100) with measurable soft tissue disease, progressive mCRPC, and DDRm likely to sensitize to PARPi ( ATM, ATR, BRCA1/2, CHEK2, FANCA, MLH1, MRE11A, NBN, PALB2, RAD51C), who received 1–2 chemotherapy regimens (≥1 taxane-based) for metastatic disease and progressed on ≥1 NHT (enzalutamide/abiraterone acetate) given for mCRPC. DDRm are defined as known/likely pathogenic variants or homozygous deletions. Pts receive oral TALA 1 mg/day (moderate renal impairment 0.75 mg/day) until radiographic progression, unacceptable toxicity, consent withdrawal, or death. Primary endpoint is objective response rate (ORR). Secondary endpoints: time to objective response; response duration; prostate-specific antigen (PSA) decrease ≥50%; circulating tumor cell (CTC) count conversion (to CTC = 0 and <5 per 7.5 mL blood); time to PSA progression; radiographic progression-free survival (rPFS); overall survival; safety. A planned efficacy/safety IA was done when 60 pts with DDRm and measurable disease completed ≥6 months of TALA/no longer followed. Radiographic responses are based on investigator assessments. Results: 113 pts received TALA (cut-off Dec 12 2019); 75 pts were evaluable for IA, with DDRm, had measurable disease, received ≥16 weeks’ treatment, and were assessed for ORR (54.7% BRCA1/2, 4.0% PALB2, 22.7% ATM; 18.7% other DDRm).All pts evaluable for IA had prior docetaxel; 45.3% cabazitaxel. Confirmed ORR, rPFS, and composite response (investigator-assessed) in pts who received TALA for ≥16 weeks are in the table. Most common treatment-emergent adverse events: anemia (42.5%); nausea (32.7%). Conclusions: TALA monotherapy has encouraging antitumor activity in docetaxel-pretreated mCRPC pts with BRCA1/2 alterations and was generally well tolerated. Funding: Pfizer Inc.

6033 Background: Pembrolizumab (a humanized monoclonal antibody blocking programmed death receptor-1[PD-1]), and cetuximab (a chimeric monoclonal antibody inhibiting epidermal growth factor receptor) are both FDA-approved, second-line monotherapies for R/M HNSCC. This is the first trial to evaluate anti-tumor efficacy of dual therapy with pembrolizumab and cetuximab. Previously reported safety data demonstrated favorable toxicity. An interim futility analysis of cohort 1 (anti-PD-1/PD-L1 and cetuximab naïve) was completed per protocol. Methods: Patients (pts) with platinum-refractory/ineligible, R/M HNSCC were treated with pembrolizumab 200mg IV on day 1 and cetuximab 400mg/m2 loading dose followed by 250mg/m2 weekly (21-day cycle). Primary endpoint: overall response rate (complete and partial responses) by 6 months (mo). Secondary endpoints: 12-mo progression-free survival (PFS) probability, overall survival, response duration, safety, correlative analyses. Results: 14 evaluable pts were enrolled March 2017-October 2018. Median age 60y (range 47-86y), M:F 6:8, ECOG (0:1) 2:12, 14 mucosal primaries (9 oral cavity, 2 HPV-mediated oropharynx, 2 non-EBV-associated nasopharynx, 1 larynx). 11 pts (79%) had no prior lines of systemic therapy for R/M HNSCC (range 0-1). 6 pts (42.8%) had a partial response by 6 months, meeting pre-planned criteria for trial continuation. 4 pts (28.6%) had stable disease and 4 (28.6%) had progressive disease. Median PFS was 128 days (4.3 mo). Median duration of response was 160.5 days (5.4 mo) for partial responders and 133 days (4.4 mo) for pts with stable disease. Disease control rate (partial + stable) was 71.4%. There were 7 grade 3 treatment-related toxicities. 2 pts discontinued cetuximab due to toxicity, however, both continued pembrolizumab. Conclusions: Interim analysis indicates that pembrolizumab plus cetuximab is potentially active for platinum-refractory/ineligible pts with R/M HNSCC. These results meet protocol specifications for trial continuation. Final results will include PD-L1 expression data. Clinical trial information: NCT03082534.

101 Background: Preclinical evidence suggests simultaneous blockade of vascular endothelial growth factor receptor 2 (VEGFR-2) and programed cell death 1 protein (PD-1) induces synergistic antitumor effects. We assessed safety and preliminary efficacy of ramucirumab (anti-VEGFR-2) plus pembrolizumab (anti-PD-1) in patients (pts) with treatment naïve advanced G/GEJ adenocarcinoma. Methods: This ongoing, multi-cohort, phase 1a/b trial enrolled ECOG PS 0-1 pts with treatment naïve advanced G/GEJ adenocarcinoma with measurable disease and baseline tumor tissue. PD-L1 status was assessed by DAKO PD-L1 22C3 IHC pharmDx assay using the combined positive score with ≥1% being positive. Ramucirumab was administered at 8 mg/kg on Days 1 & 8 with pembrolizumab 200 mg on Day 1 q3W. Primary objective was safety and tolerability of study treatment; preliminary efficacy was examined. Results: As of 31-July-2017, 28 treatment naïve G/GEJ adenocarcinoma pts were treated. Median age was 63 y, 75% male, 57% had ECOG PS of 0, and 68% were PD-L1 positive. At data cutoff, 8 (28%) pts continued to receive study treatment. Median duration of follow-up was 8.1 mo (IQR 6-10). Median treatment duration was 4.3 mo (IQR 2-7). All grades treatment-related adverse events (TRAEs) occurred in 27 (96%) of patients; TRAEs in ≥15% of pts were fatigue (36%), hypertension (25%) and headache (18%). Seventeen (61%) pts experience grade 3 TRAEs, most commonly hypertension (14%), diarrhea (11%), and elevated alanine (7%) or aspartate (7%) aminotransferase. No grade 4-5 TRAEs occurred. An objective response was achieved by 7 (25%) pts, 6 positive and 1 negative for PD-L1. Disease control rate was 68%. Median time to response was 2.7 mo (95% CI 1.3-2.8) and median duration of response was 10 mo (95% CI 9.7-10.3). Median progression-free survival was 5.3 mo (95% CI 3.2-11). Median overall survival has not been reached. Conclusions: Ramucirumab plus pembrolizumab demonstrated encouraging antitumor activity in treatment naïve advanced G/GEJ adenocarcinoma with no grade 4 TRAE observed. Clinical trial information: NCT02443324.

BackgroundHHIs, vismodegib and sonidegib, are approved for treatment of patients with mBCC or locally advanced BCC who are not candidates for surgery or radiation. There is no approved option for patients who progress on or are intolerant to HHIs. Cemiplimab is an anti-programmed cell death-1 monoclonal antibody approved for treatment of patients with metastatic cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma (CSCC) or locally advanced CSCC who are not candidates for curative surgery or curative radiation. Here we present the prespecified interim analysis of the mBCC cohort from the pivotal Phase 2, non-randomized, multi-center study of cemiplimab in patients with advanced BCC who discontinued HHI therapy due to disease progression, intolerance, or no better than stable disease after 9 months (NCT03132636).MethodsPatients with mBCC (nodal and/or distant) received cemiplimab 350 mg intravenously every 3 weeks; interim analysis included patients with the opportunity to be followed for approximately 57 weeks. The primary endpoint was objective response rate (ORR) per independent central review (ICR). Secondary objectives included assessment of safety and tolerability, estimation of duration of response (DOR), progression-free survival (PFS), and overall survival (OS).ResultsIn this interim efficacy analysis of 28 patients, 82.1% were males and median age was 65.5 years (range 38−90). Six patients had a partial response, per ICR, for an ORR of 21.4% (95% CI, 8.3, 41.0). ORR per investigator assessment was 28.6% (95% CI, 13.2, 48.7). Among responders, observed DOR was 9−23 months. Median time to response per ICR was 3.2 months (range, 2.1−10.5). Median Kaplan–Meier (KM) estimation of PFS was 8.3 months. Median DOR had not been reached and median KM estimation of OS was 25.7 months. All six responses had observed durations of at least 8 months. The disease control rate was 67.9% (95% CI, 47.6, 84.1).The most common treatment emergent adverse events (TEAEs) regardless of attribution were fatigue (50.0%), diarrhea (35.7%), pruritus (25.0%), and constipation (25.0%). Hypertension (n=2) was the only Grade ≥3 TEAE regardless of attribution occurring in ≥2 patients. TEAEs leading to death occurred in one (3.6%) patient who died from staphylococcal pneumonia, considered unrelated to study treatment.ConclusionsThis interim analysis demonstrates that cemiplimab is the first agent to provide clinically meaningful anti-tumor activity, including durable responses, in patients with mBCC after progression or intolerance on HHI therapy.AcknowledgementsEditorial acknowledgment: Medical writing support was provided by Cindi Hoover, PhD of Prime, Knutsford, UK, funded by Regeneron Pharmaceuticals, Inc. and Sanofi.Ethics ApprovalThe study protocols and all amendments were approved by the institutional review board at each participating study site.
