5018 Background: Despite CG therapy, most metastatic UC patients die from their disease. Novel approaches are needed. Combining anti-angiogenic therapy with chemotherapy has improved outcomes in other malignancies, offering hope for similar improvements in UC patients. Methods: Metastatic or unresectable chemonaive UC patients (pts) with an ECOG performance status of 0–1 received C 70 mg/m2 iv d1, G 1,000–1,250 mg/m2 iv d1, 8, and B 15 mg/kg iv d1 on a q21d cycle for up to 8 cycles. Gemcitabine was reduced to 1,000 mg/m2 iv d1, 8 for all subsequent pts after 7 thromboembolic events were noted in the first 17 pts. The primary endpoint was progression free survival (PFS). The trial was designed to detect a 33% improvement in PFS from 7.5 months with traditional CG therapy to 11.25 months with CGB. Results: By December 2008, 45 pts were enrolled, with 43 evaluable for toxicity, 36 for response. Demographics include: 33 (77%) male, 10 (23%) female; median age 66 (Range: 41 - 78); 26 (60%) and 17 (40%) ECOG 0/1; 19 (44%) and 24 (56%) lymph node only / visceral metastases. PFS will be evaluated in May 2009 when all pts will have more than 6 month follow-up data. 14 (33%) and 6 (14%) pts experienced grade 3 or 4 hematologic toxicity (4 pts - thrombocytopenia, 2 pts - neutropenic fever). Grade 3 or 4 nonhematologic toxicity was observed in 24 (56%) and 9 (21%) pts (DVT/PE - 9 pts, CNS hemorrhage/proteinuria/hypertension - 1 pt each) Best RECIST response was: complete response 6 pts (17%, 95% CI 6–33%), partial response 18 pts (50%, 95% CI 33–67%); with overall response rate of 67% (95% CI 51–82%). Stable disease lasting at least 12 weeks was observed in 10 pts (28%, 95% CI 14–45%) and progressive disease in 2 pts (5%, 95% CI 1–19%). Conclusions: CGB demonstrates significant clinical activity in the first-line treatment of metastatic UC patients at the expense of considerable toxicity. The durability of disease control will be determined by assessment of PFS. A phase III trial to further define the toxicity risk vs. clinical benefit of bevacizumab addition to platinum-based doublets is planned in this population. [Table: see text]

PurposeNovel approaches are needed for patients with metastatic urothelial cancer (UC). This trial assessed the efficacy and toxicity of bevacizumab in combination with cisplatin and gemcitabine (CGB) as first-line treatment for patients with metastatic UC.Patients and MethodsChemotherapy-naive patients with metastatic or unresectable UC received cisplatin 70 mg/m2on day 1, gemcitabine 1,000 to 1,250 mg/m2on days 1 and 8, and bevacizumab 15 mg/kg on day 1, every 21 days.ResultsForty-three patients with performance status of 0 (n = 26) or 1 (n = 17) and median age of 66 years were evaluable for toxicity and response. Grade 3 to 4 hematologic toxicity included neutropenia (35%), thrombocytopenia (12%), anemia (12%), and neutropenic fever (2%). Grade 3 to 5 nonhematologic toxicity included deep vein thrombosis/pulmonary embolism (21%), hemorrhage (7%), cardiac (7%), hypertension (5%), and proteinuria (2%). Three treatment-related deaths (CNS hemorrhage, sudden cardiac death, and aortic dissection) were observed. Best response by Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors was complete response in eight patients (19%) and partial response in 23 patients (53%), for an overall response rate of 72%. Stable disease lasting ≥ 12 weeks occurred in four patients (9%), and progressive disease occurred in six patients (14%). With a median follow-up of 27.2 months (range, 3.5 to 40.9 months), median progression-free survival (PFS) was 8.2 months (95% CI, 6.8 to 10.3 months) with a median overall survival (OS) time of 19.1 months (95% CI, 12.4 to 22.7 months). The study-defined goal of 50% improvement in PFS was not met.ConclusionCGB demonstrates promising OS and antiangiogenic treatment-related toxicities in the phase II setting of metastatic UC. The full risk/benefit profile of CGB in patients with metastatic UC will be determined by an ongoing phase III intergroup trial.

9504 Background: T-DXd is an antibody-drug conjugate composed of an anti-HER2 antibody, cleavable tetrapeptide-based linker, and topoisomerase I inhibitor payload. In a phase I trial, patients (pts) with HER2-mutated NSCLC who received T-DXd had a confirmed objective response rate (ORR) of 72.7% (8/11) (Tsurutani et al, WCLC 2018). DESTINY-Lung01 (NCT03505710) is an ongoing, multicenter, phase II study of T-DXd in pts with non-squamous NSCLC overexpressing HER2 or containing a HER2-activating mutation. We report data for the cohort with HER2 mutations after a median follow-up of 8.0 mo (range, 1.4-14.2 mo). Methods: Pts were treated with T-DXd 6.4 mg/kg every 3 weeks. The primary endpoint was confirmed ORR (complete response [CR] + partial response [PR]) by ICR. Additional endpoints were disease control rate (DCR; CR + PR + stable disease), duration of response (DOR), progression-free survival (PFS), and safety. Results: At data cutoff (25 Nov 2019), 42 pts (64.3% female) had received T-DXd. Median age was 63.0 years (range, 34-83 years; < 65 y, 59.5%); 45.2% had central nervous system metastases; ECOG performance status was 0 in 23.8% of pts and 1 in 76.2%. HER2 mutations were predominantly in the kinase domain (90.5%). Most pts (90.5%) had prior platinum-based chemotherapy and 54.8% had anti–PD-1 or –PD-L1 treatment; median number of prior treatment lines was 2 (range, 1-6). Median treatment duration was 7.75 mo (range, 0.7-14.3 mo); 45.2% of pts remained on treatment. Confirmed ORR by ICR among the 42 pts was 61.9% (95% CI, 45.6%-76.4%); median DOR was not reached at data cutoff; 16 of 26 responders remained on treatment at data cutoff; DCR was 90.5% (95% CI, 77.4%-97.3%); estimated median PFS was 14.0 mo (95% CI, 6.4-14.0 mo). All pts (42/42) had treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs); 64.3% were grade ≥ 3 (52.4% drug-related), including decreased neutrophil count (26.2%) and anemia (16.7%). There were 5 cases (11.9%) of drug-related interstitial lung disease (ILD) as adjudicated by an independent committee (all grade 2, no grade ≥ 3) and 1 case of grade 1 ILD is pending adjudication. TEAEs led to dose interruption in 25 pts (59.5%), dose reduction in 16 pts (38.1%), and treatment discontinuation in 10 pts (23.8%). Conclusions: T-DXd demonstrated promising clinical activity with high ORR and durable responses in pts with HER2-mutated NSCLC. The safety profile was generally consistent with previously reported studies. Clinical trial information: NCT03505710 .

9000 Background: In the randomized phase 3 CheckMate 9LA trial (NCT03215706), first-line NIVO + IPI combined with 2 cycles of chemo significantly improved overall survival (OS), progression-free survival (PFS), and objective response rate (ORR) vs chemo alone (4 cycles). Clinical benefit was observed regardless of programmed death ligand 1 (PD-L1) expression level and histology. Here we report data with 2 years’ minimum follow-up from this study. Methods: Adult patients (pts) with stage IV / recurrent NSCLC, ECOG performance status ≤ 1, and no known sensitizing EGFR/ALK alterations were stratified by PD-L1 (< 1% vs ≥ 1%), sex, and histology (squamous vs non-squamous) and were randomized 1:1 to NIVO 360 mg Q3W + IPI 1 mg/kg Q6W + chemo (2 cycles; n = 361) or chemo alone (4 cycles; n = 358). Pts with non-squamous NSCLC in the chemo-alone arm could receive pemetrexed maintenance. The primary endpoint was OS. Secondary endpoints included PFS and ORR by blinded independent central review, and efficacy by different PD-L1 levels. Safety was exploratory. Results: At a minimum follow-up of 24.4 months for OS (database lock: Feb 18, 2021), pts treated with NIVO + IPI + chemo continued to derive OS benefit vs chemo, with a median OS of 15.8 months vs 11.0 months, respectively (HR, 0.72 [95% CI, 0.61–0.86]); 2-year OS rates were 38% vs 26%. Median PFS with NIVO + IPI + chemo vs chemo was 6.7 months vs 5.3 months (HR, 0.67 [95% CI, 0.56–0.79]); 8% and 37% of pts who had disease progression received subsequent immunotherapy, respectively. ORR was 38% with NIVO + IPI + chemo vs 25% with chemo. Similar clinical benefit with NIVO + IPI + chemo vs chemo was observed in all randomized pts and across the majority of subgroups, including by PD-L1 expression level (Table) or histology. Any grade and grade 3–4 treatment-related adverse events were reported in 92% and 48% of pts in the NIVO + IPI + chemo arm vs 88% and 38% in the chemo arm, respectively. Conclusion: With 2 years’ minimum follow-up, first-line NIVO + IPI + chemo demonstrated durable survival and benefit versus chemo in pts with advanced NSCLC; no new safety signals were identified. Clinical trial information: NCT03215706. [Table: see text]

7093 Background: Aim of this study was to evaluate the activity and toxicity of MTA and CBDCA combination as first line chemotherapy in advanced MPM. Methods: Chemonaive patients (pts) with histologically proven, an ECOG performance status (PS) 0–2, and measurable advanced MPM were considered. The schedule of administration was: pemetrexed 500 mg/m2 in combination with CBDA AUC 5, once every 21 days for 8 cycles. Results: From July 2003 to March 2005 76 pts (54 male and 22 female) have been treated with this combination chemotherapy. Median age was 62.7 years (range 40–70); median PS 0 (range 0–3); epithelial histologic findings were in 57 (75%), mixed in 13 (17.1%), sarcomatous in 3 (3.9%), and unspecified in 3 (3.9%) pts. A total of 537 cycles was administered (median 7, range 1 to 13). Grade 3 hematologic toxicity according to WHO criteria was seen in 43 (56.6%) pts (neutropenia in 30, thrombocytopenia in 8, and anemia in 5); grade 4 hematologic toxicity in 5 (6.6%) pts. The most common nonhematologic events were grade 3 nausea/vomiting in 10 (13.1%), and fever in 4 (5.3%) pts. 74 pts were evaluable for clinical response. There were 16 (21.%) partial responses (PR) and 3 (3.9%) complete responses (CR), for an overall response rate of 23.9%. 29 (38.2%) pts reported stable disease (SD). The overall survival was considered from date of diagnosis to date of death from any cause or to date of last follow-up. The median survival time for the entire group was estimated at 23 months. Conclusions: The results of this phase II study indicate that, at this dose and schedule, the combination of CBDCA and MTA is moderately active and that the profile of toxicity is acceptable in pts with advanced MPM. No significant financial relationships to disclose.

7565 Background: Standard first-line chemotherapy for elderly NSCLC pts has been considered as a monotherapy with vinorelbine or gemcitabine globally. However, we have demonstrated the high efficacy of CP for elderly pts in our previous trial (Ann Oncol 2010). Meanwhile, D has been considered as an alternative option for this population in Japan according to the result of WJTOG9904 (JCO 2006). Thus we compared the two regimens to select the proper candidate for future phase III trial. Methods: Eligible pts were aged 70 years or older with newly diagnosed stage IIIB/IV NSCLC; ECOG performance status 0-1; adequate organ function; written informed consent. Pts were randomized to receive carboplatin (AUC 6) on day 1 and paclitaxel (70mg/m2 on day 1, 8, and 15) every 4 weeks or D (60mg/m2 on day 1) every 3 weeks. The primary endpoint was overall response rate (ORR), and secondary endpoints were progression-free survival (PFS), overall survival, and toxicity profile. Assuming that ORR of 40% would be potential usefulness while ORR of 20% would be the lower limit of interest, 40 pts in each arm were required if expect 10% loss to follow up. Results: Between July 2006 and September 2010, 84 pts were enrolled and 41 pts in CP arm and 42 pts in D arm were eligible (median age, 76 years; 75% male; 72% stage IV). Median treatment cycle was 4 in each arm (CP, range 1-6; D, range 1-8). ORRs were 51% (95%CI: 36-66%) and 26% (95%CI: 12-39%) in the CP and D arm, respectively. With a median follow-up of 18.4 months, median PFS were 6.5 and 3.9 months in the CP and D arm, respectively (Logrank, P=0.0027). Grade 3 or severer toxicities were as follows: neutropenia (CP, 56% and D, 79%), anemia (CP, 15% and D, 7%), thrombocytopenia (CP, 10% and D, 0%), infection (CP, 20% and D, 25%). One treatment-related death due to neutropenia, pneumonia, and lethal arrhythmia occurred in D arm but none in CP arm. Conclusions: The platinum doublet CP achieved higher activity with an acceptable toxicity profile for elderly pts with advanced NSCLC compared to monotherapy with D. The superiority of CP to the monotherapy in this trial is consistent with results of recent IFCT-0501 trial (Lancet 2011).

439 Background: Weekly nab-P + Gem is a new option for first-line treatment (Tx) of mPC. In the MPACT trial, nab-P/Gem demonstrated superior overall survival (OS; primary endpoint) vs Gem alone as first-line Tx of mPC (Table). Here we report a subgroup analyses evaluating the efficacy and safety outcomes with nab-P + Gem vs Gem alone from the Canadian cohort of the MPACT trial. Methods: Previously untreated pts (N = 861) with mPC were randomized 1:1 (stratified by Karnofsky Performance Status [KPS], region, and the presence of liver metastases) to receive nab-P 125 mg/m2 + Gem 1000 mg/m2 on days 1, 8, and 15 of each 28-day cycle or Gem 1000 mg/m2 weekly for 7 weeks followed by 1 week of rest (cycle 1) and then days 1, 8, and 15 of each 28-day cycle (cycle ≥ 2). Results: 63 pts from Canada enrolled in the MPACT trial. Baseline pt characteristics were well balanced. Median age was 61 years and KPS was similar for both groups and comparable to the intent-to-treat (ITT) populations. Primary lesion in the pancreatic head was more common among pts in the nab-P + Gem vs Gem arm (55% vs 30%); use of biliary stent was similar (33% nab-P + Gem; 27% Gem). Median OS and progression-free survival (PFS) were longer with nab-P + Gem vs Gem (Table). Median Tx duration was 4.2 mo with nab-P + Gem vs 3.2 mo with Gem. Use of subsequent therapy was 30% in the nab-P + Gem arm vs 43% in the Gem arm. The median relative dose intensity for Gem was similar in each arm (81% nab-P + Gem vs 85% Gem). The most common grade ≥ 3 AEs for nab-P + Gem vs Gem were neutropenia (22% vs 10%), fatigue (34% vs 33%), and neuropathy (25% vs 0%). Conclusions: Canadian pts participating in MPACT were similar to the ITT population and nab-P + Gem was well tolerated and showed improved median OS, PFS, and ORR vs Gem alone, although not statistically significant (likely due to the small number of pts). Clinical trial information: NCT00844649. [Table: see text]

1013 Background: C alone has good activity and tolerability in metastatic breast cancer (MBC) and when combined with docetaxel improves response and survival. C combined with B in heavily pretreated MBC improved the response rate but not PFS. In untreated MBC, the addition of B to chemotherapy significantly improves progression-free survival (PFS) which suggests that B, is most effective in early disease. Methods: Primary objective of this single-arm, 2-phase study, is to evaluate PFS in MBC patients receiving first-line treatment with C 1,000 mg/m2 twice daily on days 1–15 (28 doses) and B 15 mg/kg on day 1. Treatment was repeated every 21 days until progression. Eligibility criteria included HER2-negative MBC previously untreated for metastatic disease; ECOG performance status =1; no prior anti-angiogenic or oral fluoropyrimidine therapy. A sample size of 109 patients (including dropouts) was required to give 90% power to test an improvement from 4 months median PFS to 5.6 months with the two-sided test (a 5%) Results: At data cut-off, 103 patients had received study medication. Present results are based on 103 patients (ITT population), except tumor response which is based on 91 patients who had response evaluation. The average # of cycles received in first phase is 6.8. 84 pts.are alive at this time. 38.5% (35/91) pts. have had a response: complete response 5.5%; partial response 33.0%. Stable disease is 42.9% with 81.4% clinical benefit. Planned dose received is 77.7 % for C and 99.0 % for B. The majority of adverse events (AEs) were mild or moderate. The most common grade 3 AEs were hand-foot syndrome (13%) and pain (10%); grade 4 pulmonary embolism occurred in 2% in the first phase of the study. Conclusions: Updated results with longer follow-up including toxicity, TTP and PFS will be presented at the meeting. It appears that in first-line C+B is active for MBC and is well tolerated, with few grade 3/4 toxicities. [Table: see text]

7680 Background: Treatment options for previously treated NSCLC are limited, warranting consideration of novel combinations. This study evaluated the activity and toxicity of erlotinib with bortezomib, a proteasome inhibitor. Dosing was based on the approved indication for erlotinib and on phase I data for the combination. Methods: Patients (pts) with Stage IIIB/IV NSCLC who progressed following one prior line of chemotherapy, with no prior exposure to an EGF-receptor inhibitor and ECOG performance status 0 or 1 were randomly assigned to erlotinib 150 mg po daily alone (arm A) or in combination with bortezomib 1.6 mg/m2 iv on days 1 and 8 (arm B) of a 21-day cycle. Response was evaluated by RECIST and toxicity was graded using NCI CTCAE 3.0. A Simon optimal two-stage design was used to evaluate anti-tumor activity in response-evaluable pts. Results: Fifty pts were treated at 17 sites (January-June 2006); baseline characteristics and treatment intensity were comparable in both arms. Among 24 response-evaluable pts in each arm, there were 3 partial responses (PR) and 1 complete response in arm A and 2 PR in arm B. Median progression-free survival (PFS) was 2.7 and 1.4 months in arms A and B, respectively. The study was halted as required at the planned interim analysis due to insufficient clinical activity in arm B. Activity and toxicity in arm A were consistent with published reports for erlotinib alone. Adverse-event profiles were as expected in both arms, with no significant additivity. In arm B, one pt died of pneumonia. The most common grade 3 treatment-related toxicity was skin rash (12% arm A and 8% arm B), and rash severity correlated with PFS: grades 2/3, 2.8 months PFS (20 pts); grades 0/1, 1.4 months PFS (28 pts), p=0.032. In arm B, one pt each had grade 3 anorexia, hypokalemia, and worsened peripheral sensory neuropathy compared with baseline. There were no grade 4 treatment related toxicities in either arm. Conclusions: The combination of erlotinib and bortezomib in the doses and schedules used in this trial was well tolerated but did not show sufficient activity at this dose and schedule to warrant further development. No significant financial relationships to disclose.

e14614 Background: Conroy et al reported a significant improvement in overall survival of patients with metastatic pancreatic cancer treated with FOLFIRINOX compared to single agent gemcitabine. The regimen was associated with significant grade 3/ 4 toxicities, such as myelosuppression(46%), fatigue(24%), vomiting(15%) and diarrhea (13%). In order to improve the toxicity profile, we have modified FOLFIRINOX (mFOLFIRINOX) regimen by removing the bolus 5-FU and adding the routine use of growth factor prophylaxis. We present our experience with mFOLFIRINOX in patients with locally advanced or metastatic pancreatic cancer. Methods: After obtaining IRB approval, patients with a diagnosis of pancreatic cancer were identified from the Emory University tumor registry. Twenty eight patients who received at least one dose of mFOLFIRINOX (5-FU 2400 mg/m2 CIVI over 46 hours, leucovorin 400 mg/m2, oxaliplatin 85 mg/m2, irinotecan 180 mg/m2 and pegfilgrastim 6 mg every two weeks ) were selected and their charts were retrospectively reviewed for safety, response, and survival. Results: Of 28 patients, 14 (50%) were male, 18 (64%) white, 8 (29%) black and other 2(7%). Median age was 63 (50-75) and ECOG performance status 0-1. Nineteen (68%) patients had primary tumor located in head of pancreas. Eight patients (29%) experienced grade 3/4 toxicities, i.e., nausea/vomiting (11%), diarrhea (11%), fatigue (11%), neuropathy (4%), neutropenia (4%), thrombocytopenia(4%), and sepsis not-related to neutropenia (4%). No grade 3/4 anemia or febrile neutropenia was noted. mFOLFIRINOX controlled the disease in 20 patients (71%) with 2 CR, 4 PR and 14 SD. With a median follow up of 5.5 months, median overall or progression free survival is not reached. Two patients have died and six patients have progressed. Conclusions: Modified FOLFIRINOX is well tolerated in this US population. The clinical activity appears very promising with majority of patients being free of progression.

531^ Background: Final PRIME results showed that pmab + CT significantly improved progression-free survival (PFS) and objective response rate vs CT alone for first-line wild type (WT) KRAS mCRC. Efficacy and PRO by ST severity from the final descriptive analysis of PRIME are presented. Methods: Patients (pts) had no prior chemotherapy for mCRC, ECOG performance status ≤ 2, and tumor tissue available for biomarker testing. The final analysis occurred 30 months after the last pt was enrolled; the primary endpoint was PFS; secondary endpoints included OS, objective response, and safety. Pts who received treatment and were alive without progression at day 28 were included in the ST analysis. Results: 1183 pts were randomized. 1057 pts with WT or MT KRAS mCRC met the criteria for inclusion in the ST analysis. Maximum grade ST was observed by day 28 in > 50% of pts. Results are shown ( table ). Overall differences in change from baseline of the least square means from a mixed effects model of the EQ-5D Overall Health Rating for pmab + CT (n = 285) minus CT alone (n = 294) and for ST gr 0-1 (n = 53) minus ST gr 2-4 (n = 232) were −1.069 (95% CI: −3.6277 to 1.4896) and 0.8971 (95% CI: ‐4.0224 to 5.8167), respectively. The overall safety profile was broadly comparable across ST groups and treatment arms. Conclusions: Pts with WT KRAS mCRC receiving pmab with ST gr 2-4 had longer PFS and OS vs pts receiving CT alone. PRO were not adversely affected by ST severity. [Table: see text]
