14502 Background: The oral fluoropyrimidine X (Xeloda®) has improved efficacy, safety and convenience compared with 5-FU/LV in MCRC [Van Cutsem et al. Br J Cancer 2004] and early-stage colon cancer [Twelves et al. NEJM 2005]. A recent study showed that I + X q2w is active and well tolerated [Garcia-Alfonso et al. ESMO 2006]. The humanized monoclonal antibody A (Avastin®) targets VEGF and limits tumor angiogenesis. The addition of A to 5-FU/LV/I (IFL regimen) results in significant improvements in survival among pts with MCRC [Hurwitz et al. NEJM 2004]. Replacing 5-FU/LV with X in this combination is a logical step forward. Here we report data from an open-label phase II trial of XIA in MCRC. Methods: Pts with untreated, histologically confirmed MCRC received I 175 mg/m2 i.v. d1, X 1000 mg/m2 orally bid d2–8, and A 5 mg/m2 d1. Treatment was repeated q2w x12 cycles in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Pts without progressive disease after 12 cycles of XIA continued on the same dose of A + X 1500 mg/m2 bid d2–8, q2w. The primary endpoint was progression-free survival (PFS); secondary endpoints were response rate (RECIST), overall survival (OS), safety, and quality of life. Results: 24 out of a planned total of 32 pts have been enrolled. Baseline characteristics are: M/F 50%/50%; median age 53 years (range 30–70); disease stage at initial diagnosis IIIA/IIIB/IV 29%/21%/50%; no. of metastatic sites 1/>1 50%/50%; most common metastatic site liver; prior adjuvant therapy 33% (Mayo 5-FU/LV). Pts received a median of 12 cycles (range 1–18) of XIA. All 24 pts are evaluable for safety and 22 for efficacy. The overall response rate is 77% (4 CR, 13 PR); 2 pts (9%) have stable disease and 3 have progressed. One pt has died. Median PFS and median OS have not yet been reached. The only grade 3 adverse events are diarrhea (13%), fatigue (4%), mucositis (4%), enteritis (4%), ileus (4%); there is one report of grade 4 leucopenia. All other adverse events are mild-to-moderate. Conclusions: The XIA combination appears to be highly active and well tolerated as first-line treatment for MCRC, providing support for further evaluation of this combination. No significant financial relationships to disclose.

e15064 Background: The oral fluoropyrimidine X has improved efficacy, safety, and convenience vs. 5-FU/LV in MCRC [Van Cutsem et al. Br J Cancer 2004] and early-stage colon cancer [Twelves et al. NEJM 2005]. A recent study showed that I + X q2w is active and well tolerated [Garcia-Alfonso et al. ESMO 2006]. The humanized monoclonal antibody A targets VEGF and limits tumor angiogenesis. The addition of A to 5-FU/LV/I (IFL regimen) improves survival significantly in patients (pts) with MCRC [Hurwitz et al. NEJM 2004]. Replacing 5-FU/LV with X in this combination is a logical step forward. Here we report data from an open-label phase II trial of XIA in MCRC. Methods: Pts with untreated, histologically confirmed MCRC received I 175mg/m2 i.v. d1, X 1,000 mg/m2 orally bid d2–8, and A 5 mg/m2 d1. Treatment was repeated q2w x 12 cycles in the absence of progressive disease (PD) or unacceptable toxicity. Pts without PD after 12 cycles of XIA continued on the same dose of A + X 1,500 mg/m2 bid d2–8, q2w. The primary endpoint was progression-free survival (PFS); secondary endpoints were overall response rate (ORR, RECIST), overall survival (OS), safety, and quality of life. Results: 57 pts have been enrolled. Baseline characteristics: M/F 44%/56%; median age 52 years (range 30–70); disease stage at initial diagnosis II/III/IV 16%/9%/75%; no. of metastatic sites 1/>1 47%/53%; most common metastatic site liver. Pts received a median 12 cycles (range 1–12) of XIA. All 57 pts are evaluable for safety and 56 for efficacy. ORR is 46% (3 CR, 13 PR); 5 pts (22%) have stable disease and 35 have PD. Median PFS and OS are 14.9 months (range 1.7–39.2) and 18.3 months (range 2.9–39.2), respectively. Grade 3 adverse events occurring in more than 1 pt are diarrhea (9%), hypertension (9%), hand-foot syndrome (7%), ileus (4%), and hypertriglyceridemia (4%); there is one report of grade 4 leucopenia. Conclusions: The XIA combination appears to be highly active and well tolerated as first-line treatment for MCRC; further studies of XIA are warranted. [Table: see text]

2066 Background: To evaluate the efficacy and tolerability of ifosfamide, carboplatin and etoposide ( ICE ) in patients with recurrent glioblastoma. Methods: This was an open-label, single-center phase II trial. Forty-two patients with first recurrent glioblastoma after surgery, standard radiotherapy and a first-line temozolomide-based or ACNU-based chemotherapy, were enrolled.The primary endpoint was progression-free survival at 6 months ( PFS-6 ), and secondary endpoints were response rate, toxicity, and survival. Chemotherapy consisted of Ifosfamide ( 700 mg / m2 on day 1, 2 and 3 ), carbopaltin ( 100 mg / m2 on day 1 ), etoposide ( 70 mg / m2 on day 1, 2, and 3 ), every 6 weeks. Results: PFS-6 was 37 %. The median PFS was 17 weeks. Response rate was 27 %. Adverse events were generally mild ( grade 1 or 2 ) and consisted mainly of alopecia. Conclusions: This regimen is well tolerated and has activity in patients with recurrent glioblastoma. No significant financial relationships to disclose.

Purpose AZD1775 is a first-in-class, potent, and selective inhibitor of WEE1 with proof of chemopotentiation in p53-deficient tumors in preclinical models. In a phase I study, the maximum tolerated dose of AZD1775 in combination with carboplatin demonstrated target engagement. We conducted a proof-of-principle phase II study in patients with p53 tumor suppressor gene ( TP53)–mutated ovarian cancer refractory or resistant (< 3 months) to first-line platinum-based therapy to determine overall response rate, progression-free and overall survival, pharmacokinetics, and modulation of phosphorylated cyclin-dependent kinase (CDK1) in skin biopsies. Patients and Methods Patients were treated with carboplatin (area under the curve, 5 mg/mL⋅min) combined with AZD1775 225 mg orally twice daily over 2.5 days every 21-day cycle until disease progression. Results AZD1775 plus carboplatin demonstrated manageable toxicity; fatigue (87%), nausea (78%), thrombocytopenia (70%), diarrhea (70%), and vomiting (48%) were the most common adverse events. The most frequent grade 3 or 4 adverse events were thrombocytopenia (48%) and neutropenia (37%). Of 24 patients enrolled, 21 patients were evaluable for efficacy end points. The overall response rate was 43% (95% CI, 22% to 66%), including one patient (5%) with a prolonged complete response. Median progression-free and overall survival times were 5.3 months (95% CI, 2.3 to 9.0 months) and 12.6 months (95% CI, 4.9 to 19.7), respectively, with two patients with ongoing response for more than 31 and 42 months at data cutoff. Conclusion To our knowledge, this is the first report providing clinical proof that AZD1775 enhances carboplatin efficacy in TP53-mutated tumors. The encouraging antitumor activity observed in patients with TP53-mutated ovarian cancer who were refractory or resistant (< 3 months) to first-line therapy warrants further development.

Abstract Purpose Metronomic chemotherapy (MCT) is an increasingly used treatment option in hormone receptor-positive (HR+)/human epidermal growth factor receptor 2-negative (HER2−) advanced/metastatic breast cancer (MBC) after failure of endocrine-based therapies. Methods VinoMetro was a multicentre, open-label, single-arm, phase II study of metronomic oral vinorelbine (VRL; 30 mg/day) as a first-line chemotherapy (CT) in patients with HR+/HER2− MBC after endocrine failure. The primary endpoint was the clinical benefit rate (CBR) at 24 weeks. Results Between January 2017 and April 2019, nine patients were enrolled. The CBR was 22.2% (90% confidence interval [CI] 4.1–55.0), p = 0.211. The median progression-free survival (PFS) was 12.0 weeks (95% CI 11.3–12.7). Grade 3–4 adverse events (AEs) occurred in 22.2% of patients. One patient died of febrile neutropenia. Conclusion VinoMetro (AGO-B-046) was closed early after nine patients and occurrence of one grade 5 toxicity in agreement with the lead institutional review board (IRB). Metronomic dosing of oral VRL in HR+/HER2− MBC as first-line CT after failure of endocrine therapies showed only limited benefit in this population. Trial registration number and date of registration ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT03007992; December 15, 2016.

Objective: The study investigated the efficacy and safety of oral vinorelbine-cisplatin (OV-CDDP) and gemcitabine-cisplatin (GEM-CDDP) in patients with squamous non-small cell lung cancer (sq-NSCLC). Patients and methods: This was an open-label, prospective, multicenter, international phase II study that enrolled untreated patients with advanced sq-NSCLC. Patients were randomized to receive 3-week cycles of either 60–80 mg/m2 OV days 1 and 8 in combination with 80 mg/m2 CDDP day 1 (arm A) or 1250 mg/m2 GEM days 1 and 8 in combination with 75 mg/m2 CDDP day 1 (arm B). After four cycles, patients without disease progression continued maintenance dose of OV or GEM until progression or unacceptable toxicity. The primary objective was disease control rate (DCR). Secondary objectives included progression-free survival (PFS), time to treatment failure (TTF), overall survival (OS), safety, and quality of life (QoL). Results: A total of 114 patients with sq-NSCLC were randomized, and 113 were treated (57 in arm A and 56 in arm B). DCR was high in both arms: 73.7% (95%CI: 62.4–100.0) in arm A and 75.0% (95%CI: 63.7–100.0) in arm B. Median PFS and TTF were similar in arm A and B 4.2 and 2.8 months, and 4.3 and 3.1 months, respectively. Even though the difference was not significant, the OS was 10.2 for arm A and 8.4 months for arm B. The safety profiles were consistent with the current knowledge of adverse events. QoL results revealed an improvement in patients under OV treatment. Conclusion: The OV-CDDP combination showed comparable efficacy to GEM-CDDP with acceptable safety profile and enhanced patients’ QoL. Trial registration: The study was registered under EudraCT number 2012-003531-40.

PURPOSE Recurrent or metastatic adenoid cystic carcinoma (R/M ACC) is a malignant neoplasm of predominantly salivary gland origin for which effective therapies are lacking. We conducted a phase II trial evaluating the multitargeted tyrosine kinase inhibitor lenvatinib in patients with R/M ACC. PATIENTS AND METHODS This study was conducted with a two-stage minimax design. Patients with histologically confirmed R/M ACC of any primary site with radiographic and/or symptomatic progression were eligible. Any prior therapy was allowed except previous lenvatinib. Patients received lenvatinib 24 mg orally per day. The primary end point was overall response rate. Secondary end points were progression-free survival and safety. An exploratory analysis of how MYB expression and genomic alterations relate to outcomes was conducted. RESULTS Thirty-three patients were enrolled; 32 were evaluable for the primary end point. Five patients (15.6%) had a confirmed partial response, 24 patients (75%) had stable disease, two patients (6.3%) discontinued treatment as a result of toxicity before the first scan, and one patient (3.1%) had progression of disease as best response. Median progression-free survival time was 17.5 months (95% CI, 7.2 months to not reached), although only eight progression events were observed. Patients otherwise were removed for toxicity (n = 5), as a result of withdrawal of consent (n = 9), or at the treating physician’s discretion (n = 6). Twenty-three patients required at least one dose modification, and 18 of 32 patients discontinued lenvatinib for drug-related issues. The most common grade 3 or 4 adverse events were hypertension (n = 9; 28.1%) and oral pain (n = 3; 9.4%). Three grade 4 adverse events were observed (myocardial infarction, n = 1; posterior reversible encephalopathy syndrome, n = 1; and intracranial hemorrhage, n = 1). CONCLUSION This trial met the prespecified overall response rate primary end point, demonstrating antitumor activity with lenvatinib in R/M ACC patients. Toxicity was comparable to previous studies, requiring monitoring and management.

Purpose A multicenter, randomized phase II trial, RECORD-3, was conducted to compare first-line everolimus followed by sunitinib at progression with the standard sequence of first-line sunitinib followed by everolimus in patients with metastatic renal cell carcinoma. Patients and Methods RECORD-3 used a crossover treatment design. The primary objective was to assess progression-free survival (PFS) noninferiority of first-line everolimus compared with first-line sunitinib. Secondary end points included combined PFS for each sequence, overall survival (OS), and safety. Results Of 471 enrolled patients, 238 were randomly assigned to first-line everolimus followed by sunitinib, and 233 were randomly assigned to first-line sunitinib followed by everolimus. The primary end point was not met; the median PFS was 7.9 months for first-line everolimus and 10.7 months for first-line sunitinib (hazard ratio [HR], 1.4; 95% CI, 1.2 to 1.8). Among patients who discontinued first-line, 108 (45%) crossed over from everolimus to second-line sunitinib, and 99 (43%) crossed over from sunitinib to second-line everolimus. The median combined PFS was 21.1 months for sequential everolimus then sunitinib and was 25.8 months for sequential sunitinib then everolimus (HR, 1.3; 95% CI, 0.9 to 1.7). The median OS was 22.4 months for sequential everolimus and then sunitinib and 32.0 months for sequential sunitinib and then everolimus (HR, 1.2; 95% CI, 0.9 to 1.6). Common treatment-emergent adverse events during first-line everolimus or sunitinib were stomatitis (53% and 57%, respectively), fatigue (45% and 51%, respectively), and diarrhea (38% and 57%, respectively). Conclusion Everolimus did not demonstrate noninferiority compared with sunitinib as a first-line therapy. The trial results support the standard treatment paradigm of first-line sunitinib followed by everolimus at progression.

Purpose This phase II study evaluated the activity of combined treatment with interferon alfa-2b and sorafenib, a Raf and multiple receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitor, in patients with advanced renal carcinoma. Patients and Methods Eligible patients had metastatic or unresectable renal carcinoma with a clear-cell component, no prior systemic therapy, performance status 0 to 1, and measurable disease. Treatment consisted of interferon alfa-2b 10 × 106 U subcutaneously three times weekly and sorafenib 400 mg orally bid. The primary end point was confirmed Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors response rate. Results Twelve (19%) of 62 assessable patients achieved an objective confirmed response. An additional 31 (50%) had an unconfirmed partial response or stable disease as best response. The median progression-free survival was 7 months (95% CI, 4 to 11 months). The most common adverse events were fatigue, anorexia, anemia, diarrhea, nausea, rigors/chills, leukopenia, fever, and transaminase elevation. Von Hippel-Lindau gene mutations were detected in four (22%) of 18 archival tumor specimens. Conclusion The confirmed response rate for the combination of sorafenib and interferon in advanced renal carcinoma is greater than expected with either interferon or sorafenib alone. The toxicity of this combination is dominated by adverse events common to interferon that limit further development of this regimen.
