14560 Background: The oral fluoropyrimidine X (Xeloda®) has efficacy, safety and convenience benefits vs. 5-FU/LV in adjuvant / first-line CRC. E (Tarceva®) inhibits epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR), which predicts poor prognosis. A randomized open-label phase II study was performed to establish activity of X alone vs. X + E (XE) in first-line. Methods: Pts (ECOG PS 0–2 and/or elevated LDH) with MCRC not eligible for immediate surgical metastatectomy and unwilling/unable to undergo combination chemotherapy were randomized to X (1000mg/m2/d bid d1–14 q3w) or XE (X 1000mg/m2/d bid d1–14 q3w + E 150mg/d). A third arm (E alone) was included but dropped after 13 pts, following safety committee review of progressions at first CT scan. Primary endpoint: time to progression (TTP). Results: 59 pts (median age 65y, range 46–84; 44 M, 15 F) have been accrued (X=21; XE=25; E=13). Mean time on study: 3.8 months (range 0.2–12). 9 pts are on active treatment, 21 pts on follow-up and 29 pts have died. Interim efficacy results are available for 50 pts (X n=15; XE n=22, E n=13). There were no significant differences in response rate, median TTP (4.9 vs. 9.2 months) and median overall survival (18.2 vs. 15.1 months) for X vs. XE. Grade 3 adverse events (AEs) with X were diarrhea, nausea, hand-foot syndrome (HFS), angina, dyspnea (all 5%). Corresponding rates of grade 3 AEs with XE were diarrhea (20%), fatigue (16%), stomatitis (12%), HFS (8%), vomiting (8%), dehydration (8%), thrombosis, weight loss, decreased appetite, dry eyes, headache, anxiety, abdominal pain, anorexia, hyponatremia (all 4%). The only grade 4 AEs were skin rash (4%) and subjective weakness (4%) - both XE. Conclusions: Interim results indicate that XE is at least as effective as X alone in first-line MCRC. Recruitment is continuing and further follow-up may help fully determine the potential benefits of adding E to X. [Table: see text] No significant financial relationships to disclose.

485 Background: Vascular endothelial growth factor receptor inhibitors, including axitinib (AG-013736), may be useful in treating patients with mCRC. The goals of this study were to estimate the objective response rate (ORR), progression-free survival (PFS), overall survival (OS) and safety in patients with mCRC treated with mFOLFOX-6 combined with axitinib or bevacizumab or both. Methods: Patients with mCRC untreated with any systemic chemotherapy >12 months prior to enrollment, ECOG PS 0/1, adequate organ function, and controlled hypertension were eligible for this randomized, open-label, phase II study. Patients receiving prior treatment with antiangiogenic agents or those who were pregnant were ineligible. All patients received standard mFOLFOX-6 treatment and were randomized to receive either axitinib 5 mg (Arm A), or bevacizumab 5 mg/kg (Arm B), or axitinib 5 mg + bevacizumab 2 mg/kg (Arm C). Axitinib was administered orally twice daily. Efficacy was determined by RECIST criteria. Results: A total of 42, 43, and 41 patients were enrolled in Arms A, B, and C, respectively. The ORR was 29%, 49%, and 39% for Arms A, B, and C, respectively. Median PFS was 315 days, 350 days, and 377 days, with 1-year survival of 72%, 79%, and 80% for Arms A, B, and C, respectively. Discontinuations due to adverse events (AEs) were more common in Arm A (36%), than in Arms B (19%) or C (32%). More patients withdrew from Arm A (18%) than from Arms B (5%) or C 12%). The rates of grade 3 AEs were similar across arms, except for hypertension and fatigue which were more common in Arms A (15% and 12%) and C (21% and 29%) compared with Arm B (2% and 12%). Serious AEs were reported by 41%, 40%, and 56% of patients in Arms A, B, and C, respectively; the most common were gastrointestinal disorders (21%, 16%, 15%, respectively). Conclusions: In combination with mFOLFOX-6 chemotherapy, treatment with axitinib resulted in a lower ORR but comparable survival to bevacizumab and this did not appear to improve significantly in the presence of both agents. This result may have been affected by the higher numbers of discontinuations and withdrawals in Arm A compared with the other 2 arms. [Table: see text]

15059 Background: 5FU in combination with P can be considered a standard treatment for MGC. Ir and T are active agents with not complete cross-resistance with P and 5FU. The combination of Ir or T with P and 5FU is feasible but with substantial toxicities. A different way to include Ir and T in the first-line treatment of MGC is to use them sequentially to a P and 5FU containing regimen. Methods: we conducted a phase II study of first-line sequential chemotherapy in MGC pts with measurable disease (RECIST criteria). Treatment consisted of: 3 cycles of PFL (biweekly P 50 mg/sqm d1, LV 200 mg/sqm d1 and 5FU 3200 mg/sqm 48-h c.i. starting on d1) followed by 3 cycles of IrFL (biweekly Ir 180 mg/sqm d1 and 5FU/LV) followed by 3 cycles of TFL (biweekly T 50 mg/sqm d1 and 5FU/LV). Evaluation of disease was performed every 3 cycles. Results: 46 pts have been enrolled. Pts characteristics are: median age = 60 years (37–75), M/F = 36/10, sites of disease (single/multiple) 9/37, ECOG PS 0/1 = 27/19. Treatment was well tolerated. Grade 3–4 non-haematological toxicities were: diarrhea in 2,5% pts with PFL; diarrhea and asthenia in 2,5% and stomatitis in 5% pts with IrFL; stomatitis in 5,7% pts with TFL. Grade 3/4 neutropenia was observed in 14% pts with PFL, 15% with IrFL and 22,9% pts with TFL. Nor febrile neutropenia neither toxic deaths have occurred. Two pts had not evaluable disease and 6 are still receiving treatment. We observed 1 CR and 8 PR with PFL (RR 24%) among the 38 evaluable pts. IrFL improved responses in 10 pts while 4 pts progressed and TFL further improved responses in 6 pts while 5 pts progressed. Response rate at the end of the planned 9 cycles was 40% (4 CR, 11 PR; 95% CI 25–58%). At a median follow-up of 15.5 mos median TTP is 6.8 mos and median OS is 13.5 mos. Conclusions: this sequential treatment is feasible with a very favourable safety profile and produces encouraging results in terms of activity and efficacy in a population of unselected MGC patients. Final data will be presented at the meeting. Partially supported by A.R.C.O. Foundation. No significant financial relationships to disclose.

10692 Background: X and T are highly active single agents in MBC. The XT combination leads to superior overall survival (OS), time to progression (TTP) and response rate (RR) vs. T alone in anthracycline-pretreated MBC [O’Shaughnessy et al. J Clin Oncol 2002]. The aim of this trial was to evaluate the efficacy and safety of sequentially administered T then X as first-line treatment in MBC. Methods: Pts ≥ 18 years with previously untreated, HER2neu-negative MBC, ECOG PS ≤ 2, were included in this prospective, multicenter, non-randomized, phase II study. Pts received 3 cycles of T (100mg/m2 d1) followed by 3 cycles of X (1250mg/m2 bid d1–14), every 3 weeks. Results: To date, 38 pts are evaluable for safety and 33 pts for efficacy. Baseline characteristics: median age 54.4 years (range 33–76); PS ≥ 1 50%; 36 (95%) pts had previous (neo)adjuvant anthracyclines, 8 (21%) concomitant with paclitaxel. The most frequent metastatic sites were: bone 47%, nodes 39% and liver 36%. 69% of pts had ≥ 2 metastatic sites. To date, 38 pts have received 3 cycles of T and 33 have also received 3 cycles of X. A total of 195 cycles have been administered: T 108 cycles (median 3, range 1–3); X 87 cycles (median 3, range 1–3). Dose reductions and interruptions for T vs. X were 32 vs. 21% and 21 vs. 21%, respectively. Median relative dose intensity: T 0.97 (range 0.62–1.00), X 0.93 (range 0.26–1.00). T grade 3/4 toxicities (37 evaluable pts): asthenia 19%, mucositis 16%, nausea 13%, febrile neutropenia 11%, rash 5%, diarrhea 5%, infection 3%. X grade 3/4 toxicities (33 evaluable pts): hand-foot syndrome 9%, diarrhea 9%, vomiting 9%, asthenia 6%, nausea 3%, anorexia 3%. In the 33 pts evaluable for efficacy, the RR was 61%, including 4 CRs and 16 PRs. At a median follow-up of 6.1 months, median TTP has not yet been reached. Conclusions: These preliminary results show that the sequential regimen of T followed by X is feasible, effective and well tolerated in first-line MBC, although giving X before T should also be investigated. Findings from a recent trial of XT vs. T followed by X [Beslija et al. ECCO 2005] suggest that XT should be standard in fit poor-prognosis pts with aggressive disease.

5576 Background: Endometrial cancer (EC) is the most common gynecologic malignancy. Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) overexpression in EC correlates with poor outcome, thus targeting VEGF is a rational therapeutic approach. We have conducted a two-stage open-label phase II study in advanced EC with sunitinib, an oral tyrosine kinase inhibitor of multiple VEGF receptors. Methods: Eligible pts have recurrent or metastatic EC and have received up to 1 prior chemotherapy (CT) regimen for metastatic disease. Sunitinib is given at 50 mg daily (OD) for 4 consecutive weeks (wks) followed by 2 wks off. Dose could be reduced to 37.5 mg OD and then 25 mg OD in the setting of toxicity. Imaging is repeated every 12 wks. Primary objectives are objective response rate (ORR by RECIST) and rate of 6-month progression-free survival (PFS). If 1 or more responses occur in the first 15 evaluable pts, the study would continue to a second stage (total = 30 pts). Secondary objectives are time to progression (TTP), overall survival (OS), and safety. Results: We report the results of the first stage of this study. Sixteen pts have been treated (median age: 63; range 41–74) with 37 cycles of sunitinib (median 2; range: 1–7). Baseline ECOG PS was 0 (7 pts), 1 (8 pts), or 2 (1 pt). Histology was endometrioid (7 pts), serous (5 pts), clear cell (1 pt), or mixed/other (3 pts). Most pts had high-grade histology (G3: 8; G2: 4; G1: 2; GX: 2). Nine pts had prior adjuvant CT, 8 pts had 1 prior CT for advanced EC, 4 pts had prior hormones and 7 pts had prior radiotherapy. Partial response was achieved by 2 pts (ORR = 12.5%), and 2 other pts had a best response of stable disease; 3 of these pts remained progression-free > 6 months. Median TTP = 2.5 months (95% CI: 2.47-NR), and median OS = 6.2 months (95% CI: 5.1-NR). Grade 3/4 adverse events (AE) in >10% of pts were fatigue (7 pts, 44%) and hypertension (5 pts, 31%). Dose reduction was required for 11 of 16 pts (69%). Two pts were inevaluable after receiving <2 cycles due to AE (grade 4 hyponatremia; grade 3 fatigue) and 1 other pt has yet to complete 2 cycles. Conclusions: Sunitinib shows preliminary activity in EC. This trial will proceed to a second stage of accrual to further explore the efficacy and safety of sunitinib in advanced EC.

102 Background: This phase II study aimed to investigate the safety and efficacy of XP compared to SP in the first-line treatment of HER2 negative AGC. Methods: Patients were randomly assigned to receive either SP (S-1 at 40–60 mg twice daily for 21 days plus cisplatin at 60 mg/ m2 on day 8, every 5 weeks) or XP (capecitabine 1,000 mg/m2 twice daily for 14 days plus cisplatin 80 mg/m2 on day 1, every 3 weeks). Primary endpoint was response rate (RR), and secondary endpoints were progression-free survival (PFS), overall survival (OS), time to treatment failure (TTF), and adverse events. Results: 84 eligible patients were randomly assigned to receive SP ( N = 41) or XP ( N = 43). No statistical difference was observed in overall RR between the SP and XP groups [51.2% (95% CI, 35.1% to 67.1%) vs. 53.5% (95% CI, 37.7% to 68.8%), P = 1.000]. Despite not significant, however, SP vs. XP showed a trend toward better PFS [median, 5.9 months vs. 4.1 months; hazard ratio (HR), 0.763; 95% CI, 0.462 to 1.259; P = .284] and OS (median, 13.5 months vs. 10.0 months; HR, 0.776; 95% CI, 0.485 to 1.244; P = .290). This trend in the SP vs. XP comparison was more pronounced in TTF (median, 4.5 months vs. 3.1 months; HR, 0.651; 95% CI, 0.421 to 1.006; P = .052). Common grade 3 to 4 hematological toxicities were neutropenia and anemia (SP group, 23% and 23%; XP group, 35% and 28%). Grade 3-4 anorexia and hyponatremia were more frequently seen in the XP group (31% and 16%) compared to the SP group (13% and 5%). Treatment-related deaths occurred in one patient (2.3%) in the XP group. Conclusions: XP failed to demonstrate the superior efficacy over SP. Higher incidence of severe toxicities by XP suggests SP as the standard 1st line chemotherapy for HER2 negative AGC in Japan. Clinical trial information: UMIN000006755.

11540 Background: Loss of activity of the Krebs cycle component succinate dehydrogenase (SDH) complex is a mechanism of tumorigenesis in SDH-deficient cancers. Accumulation of the metabolite succinate inhibits α-ketoglutarate-dependent dioxygenases leading to DNA hypermethylation. Guadecitabine is a small molecule DNA methyltransferase inhibitor. We conducted a Phase II study to test the hypothesis that guadecitabine will impact tumor growth by reversing DNA hypermethylation in tumors with Krebs cycle abnormalities (NCT03165721). Study Objectives: Our primary objective was to assess the clinical activity of guadecitabine in patients with SDH-deficient GIST, PHEO/PGL, and HLRCC-associated renal cell carcinoma. Secondarily, we desired to evaluate the toxicities of patients on treatment with guadecitabine. Methods: We conducted a single site, open label, phase II study using a small optimal two-stage design to evaluate response in SDH-deficient GIST, PHEO/PGL, and HLRCC-associated renal cell carcinoma. Patients >12 years of age received guadecitabine subcutaneously at 45mg/m2/day for 5 consecutive days on a 28-day cycle. Activity via imaging response was assessed utilizing RECISTv1.1. Toxicities were graded using version 4.0 of the NCI Common Toxicity Criteria. All patients were included in analysis. Results: We enrolled nine patients (6F:3M) with an age range of 18-57 years. Seven patients had SDH-deficient GIST (78%), one patient with paraganglioma (11%), and one with HLRCC-associated renal cell carcinoma (11%). No patients had a complete or partial response. Five patients came off study due to progression (56%) with one death due to disease progression in the patient with HLRCC-associated renal cell carcinoma (11%). Three patients (33%) withdrew due to lack of response with stable disease. One patient was withdrawn due to investigator’s discretion (11%). Toxicities possibly, probably, or definitely related to drug included grade 3 leukopenia (11%) febrile neutropenia (11%), grade 3-4 neutropenia (22%) requiring dose reductions, grade 3 hypertension (11%), grade 2 lung infection requiring hospitalization (11%). Conclusions: In this single site, open label, phase II study in patients with SDH-deficient GIST, PHEO/PGL, and HLRCC-associated renal cell cancer guadecitabine was tolerated by the majority of patients. No complete or partial responses were observed. Clinical trial information: NCT03165721 .
