5139 Background: Chemotherapy for pts with CRPC who have progressed after docetaxel remains to be defined. Patupilone is an epothilone with broad spectrum pre-clinical activity including in taxane resistant models. Methods: Multicenter, 2-stage design. Pts with metastatic CRPC with progressive disease during or within 6 months of receiving docetaxel were eligible. Patupilone was initially given 10mg/m 2 IV every 3 weeks. PSA response rate (≥50% decline) was the primary endpoint (H0 = 15%, H1 = 25%, α = 0.1, β = 0.2). Secondary endpoints were measurable disease response, serial pain and analgesics scores, progression free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS). Results: 83 pts were enrolled from March 2007-June 2008. 401 cycles administered (median 5, range 1–15). Baseline characteristics (range): median age 67 (47–85), PSA 212 (2.6–11520), hemoglobin 118 (89–160), median time to progression after docetaxel 1.0 months (0.0–6.0), number of prior chemotherapy regimens 1:2:3+ in 45:28:10 pts, ECOG PS 0–1:2 in 73:10 pts, disease in bone/lymph nodes/viscera in 76/47/14 pts respectively. In the first 6 pts, gastrointestinal serious adverse events (AE) occurred in 4 pts (diarrhea and vomiting) which lead to a dose reduction of patupilone to 8 mg/m2 for subsequent patients. Grade 3/4 related adverse events at this dose included fatigue (16%), diarrhea (13%) and anorexia (5%). There were no grade 3/4 hematologic AEs. In 78 pts evaluable for PSA response, PSA declines of ≥30% and ≥50% have occurred in 44/78 (56%) and 35/78 (45%) with a confirmed PSA response in 25 pts (32%). Partial response occurred in 5% and stable disease in 64% of 44 evaluable pts. Pain response (2 point decline on 6 point scale) occurred in 36 (51%) of 71 pts eligible for analysis. Median PFS for PSA and non-PSA outcomes (measurable disease/symptomatic progression or death) was 7.6 months (3.7–11.5) and 5.6 months (3.9–7.3) respectively. Follow up for OS is continuing. Conclusions: Patupilone 8 mg/m2 every 3 weeks was well tolerated and associated with encouraging PFS, PSA and pain responses in pts with docetaxel resistant/refractory disease. Further investigation of patupilone in this population is warranted. [Table: see text]

TPS4692^ Background: The phase III TROPIC study (NCT00417079) reported a significant improvement in overall survival (OS) for cabazitaxel (Cbz) + prednisone (P;CbzP) (25 mg/m2 IV Q3W/10 mg PO QD) vs mitoxantrone (M) + P (MP) (median OS 15.1 vs 12.7 mos; HR 0.70; P < 0.0001) in pts with mCRPC (also known as hormone-refractory prostate cancer) previously treated with a D-containing regimen. CbzP is approved by the FDA, EMA and other health authorities for the treatment of pts with mCRPC that has progressed after a D-containing regimen. Cbz toxicity is consistent with other taxanes; compared with M, more hematologic toxicities are reported (primarily Grade 3–4 neutropenia). Phase I/II studies identified 20 and 25 mg/m2 as recommended doses; 25 mg/m2 was selected for the phase III TROPIC study. As pooled data show Grade 3–4 neutropenia incidence is lower with Cbz < 25 mg/m2 (61%) vs ≥ 25 mg/m2 (74%), it is of interest to assess if reducing the Cbz approved dose in mCRPC lessens hematologic toxicity and is non-inferior in terms of efficacy. Methods: PROSELICA (NCT01308580) is a randomized, open-label, multinational, phase III study comparing 20 mg/m2 and 25 mg/m2 Cbz for efficacy and tolerability. Pts with a life expectancy > 6 mos, ECOG PS ≤ 2, histologically/cytologically confirmed metastatic prostate adenocarcinoma resistant to hormone therapy and previously treated with a D-containing regimen are eligible. Pts are randomized 1:1 to receive Cbz 20 mg/m² or 25 mg/m² IV Q3W + P 10 mg PO QD, treated until disease progression, unacceptable toxicity or withdrawal of consent (max 10 cycles), and stratified according to ECOG PS, measurable disease (yes/no) and region. The primary endpoint is OS (non-inferiority design). Secondary endpoints include safety, progression-free survival (PCWG2 criteria), PSA and pain progression and response, tumor response in pts with measurable disease and health-related quality of life. Cbz PK and pharmacogenomics will be assessed in pt subgroups. Planned enrollment is 1,200 pts. Study start was in May 2011; as of Jan 2012, 270 pts had been enrolled. The first DMC meeting recommended continuing the study without change.

TPS4696^ Background: Docetaxel (D) in combination with prednisone (P) as first-line (1L) chemotherapy in patients (pts) with mCRPC is the current standard of care. However, treatment is not curative and D-resistant disease typically develops. Cabazitaxel (Cbz) is a novel taxane active in D-sensitive and -resistant tumor models. Clinical activity of Cbz plus P (CbzP) was demonstrated in the Phase III TROPIC study in mCRPC pts previously treated with a D-containing regimen; CbzP showed a significant overall survival (OS) benefit vs mitoxantrone plus prednisone (median OS 15.1 vs 12.7 months; HR 0.70; P < 0.0001). Therefore, it is of interest to determine if CbzP provides an OS advantage vs DP in 1L mCRPC pts. Methods: The phase III FIRSTANA study (NCT01308567) is a randomized, open-label, multinational trial in 1L mCRPC pts, designed to compare the efficacy of Cbz 25 mg/m² IV Q3W (Arm A) and Cbz 20 mg/m² IV Q3W (Arm B) vs D 75 mg/m2 IV Q3W (Arm C). P 10 mg PO QD is to be given concomitantly. Pts are stratified by ECOG PS (0–1 vs 2), measurable disease (yes/no) and region (depending on availability of Cbz as 2L). Pts with ECOG PS ≤ 2, histologically/cytologically confirmed metastatic prostate adenocarcinoma, with no prior chemotherapy and with disease progression following medical or surgical castration are eligible. The primary endpoint is OS. Secondary endpoints include progression-free survival (PFS) (PCWG2 criteria), radiologic PFS, tumor response in measurable disease (RECIST 1.1), PSA response and PSA PFS, pain response and pain PFS, time to occurrence of any skeletal-related events, safety profile and health-related quality of life. Cbz pharmacokinetics and pharmacogenomics will be assessed in pt subgroups. Pts will be treated until progression, unacceptable toxicity or pt request. Planned enrollment is 1,170 pts; study size was calculated to achieve 90% power for OS. Study start was in May 2011; at January 2012, 219 pts were enrolled. The first DMC meeting recommended continuing the study without change.

5102 Background: Atrasentan, an oral selective endothelin A receptor antagonist, demonstrated activity in patients with RCC included in Phase I studies. Based on these preliminary findings, a phase II study was undertaken in patients with measurable or nonmeasurable (bone only) metastatic RCC. Methods: Patients with locally recurrent or metastatic disease were stratified on disease status (measurable or bone only metastases) and prior immunotherapy. Eligible patients also had no prior chemotherapy, no more than 1 prior immunotherapy, and ECOG PS 0, 1, or 2. Prior nephrectomy was permitted. Patients received atrasentan 10 mg/day po until progression or unacceptable toxicity. Standard RECIST criteria were used to assess response. The primary endpoint was the progression-free rate at 6 months. Rates of 25% among patients treated with prior immunotherapy and 45% among patients with no prior immunotherapy were considered promising. A two-stage design was used for cohorts with no prior immunotherapy. Results: Between July 2003 and July 2005, 98 patients were registered. Four patients were ineligible and 1 withdrew before treatment. Median duration of treatment was 10 weeks (range, 2 to 107 weeks). Toxicities were mild, with 73% of patients reporting no Grade 3 or higher treatment- related adverse events. Grade 4 adverse events included neutropenia (n=3), dyspnea (n=2), thrombosis and supraventricular arrhythmia (n=1 each). Six-month progression-free rates (90% CI) were 14% (6 - 25%), 0% (0 - 39%), 12% (3 - 28%) and 17% (5 - 38%) respectively for patients with prior immunotherapy and measurable disease (n=44), prior immunotherapy and bone metastases only (n=6), no prior immunotherapy and measurable disease (n=25), and no prior immunotherapy and bone metastases only (n=18). Median progression-free survival was 2.3 months (95% CI, 2.0 - 3.5 months). Conclusions: While well-tolerated, atrasentan did not yield 6-month progression-free rates that would support its use as first-line monotherapy in patients with advanced RCC. No significant financial relationships to disclose.

3518 Background: CD105 (endoglin) is an angiogenic membrane protein that is over-expressed on proliferating vasculature in solid tumors and up-regulated following anti-VEGF therapy. TRC105 is a human/murine chimeric IgG1 anti-CD105 monoclonal antibody that inhibits angiogenesis and tumor growth via endothelial cell growth inhibition, ADCC, and apoptosis. Methods: The safety and PK of TRC105 were evaluated in patients with refractory cancer. Subjects were to have adequate organ function and no CNS or central thoracic tumors. TRC105 was escalated in cohorts of 3–6 patients to a maximum feasible dose of 1.0 mg/kg i.v. every 2 weeks. Results: 19 ECOG PS 0–1 patients received TRC105 at doses between 0.01–1.0 mg/kg, including 11 men and 8 women aged 37 to 79 years (median 59). One patient experienced dose-limiting toxicity (DLT) at 0.1 mg/kg of grade 4 gastric ulcer bleeding on Day 4 which resolved spontaneously. No other grade 3 or 4 adverse events were reported. Possibly related grade 1–2 adverse events were rare including fatigue, anemia, proteinuria, dysgeusia, diarrhea, flushing, hyperuricemia and intermittent postcoital vaginal bleeding. One patient with castrate-refractory prostate cancer remains on study after 13 months of TRC105 at 0.01 mg/kg with a complete PSA response and bone scan normalization. In addition, 6-month stable disease was seen in a patient with ovarian cancer (CA125 decrease of 16%). Best response also included stable disease (n = 3) and progression (n = 14). Serum TRC105 concentrations expected to saturate CD105 binding sites (> 0.2 ug/mL) were achieved at a dose of 0.3 mg/kg, and concentrations > 10 ug/mL were achieved at 1.0 mg/kg. HAMA became detectable in 1 patient after 3 months of TRC105 therapy. Conclusions: TRC105 is tolerated at doses with evidence of clinical activity. Additional monotherapy and combination studies are planned. [Table: see text]

10040 Background: Vorolanib (CM082) is a multi-target tyrosine kinase inhibitor including VEGF, PDGF, c-kit, and Flt-3. Toripalimab (JS001) is a humanized IgG4 mAb against programmed death-1 (PD-1) with clinical activity in metastasis melanoma but not in its mucosal subtype. In this phase II study (NCT03602547), we investigated the safety and efficacy of CM082 in combination with JS001 in patients (pts) with advanced mucosal melanoma. Methods: The study enrolled pts from 18 to 75 years-old with histologically confirmed metastatic mucosal melanoma, ECOG PS 0-1, no prior systemic anti-cancer treatment. Eligible pts were treated with CM082 tablet (150 or 200 mg once daily) combined with JS001 (240mg every 2 weeks, IV, Q2W) until confirmed disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Clinical response was evaluated every 8 week. The primary endpoint was overall response rate (ORR) using RECIST v1.1. Secondary endpoints included progression-free survival (PFS), overall survival (OS), disease control rate (DCR), duration of remission (DOR), and time to first remission (TTR) according to RECIST v1.1 and iRECIST. The safety was also assessed. Results: Between July 2018 and April 12, 2019, 40 pts (19 pts in 150mg group; 21 pts in 200mg group) were enrolled and 38 pts were evaluable for tumor response (150mg n = 18, 200mg n = 20), with 4 (22.2%) confirmed partial response (PR), 6 (33.3%) stable disease (SD) and 8 (44.4%) progression disease (PD) in the 150mg CM082 group; 3 (15%) PRs (including 2 unconfirmed), 10 (50%) SD, and 7 (35%) PD were reported in the 200mg CM082 group. Tumors shrank in 10 pts (56%) in the 150mg group and 10 pts (50%) in the 200mg group. At data cut-off (November 28, 2019), 29 pts had PFS events (150mg n = 12; 200mg n = 17). The median PFS was 5.7 (95% CI 2.0, NE) months and 5.6 (1.9, 7.7) months in the two groups, respectively. The most common treatment-related adverse events (AEs) were grade 1 or 2, including leukopenia, elevated LDH, increased ALT, neutropenia, increased AST, and elevated GGT. Common grade 3 or higher adverse events ( > 10%) were increased ALT (12 pts, 30%), increased AST (11 pts, 27.5%), neutropenia (6 pts, 15%) and elevated GGT (6 pts, 15%). Eight pts had 9 serious AEs (SAEs). The study is still ongoing and more data will be presented in the future. Conclusions: PFS benefit was observed in both 150mg and 200mg subgroups. This study demonstrated potentially improved efficacy with predictable toxicities of CM082 in combination with JS001 therapy, which may be an effective treatment option for pts with advanced mucosal melanoma. Clinical trial information: NCT03602547.

BackgroundImmune checkpoint therapy (ICT) has low response rates in patients with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC), in part due to few T cells in the tumor microenvironment (TME). Anti-cytotoxic T lymphocyte-associated protein 4 (CTLA-4) promotes intratumoral T cell infiltration but induces upregulation of PD-1 and programmed death ligand-1 (PD-L1) within the prostate TME. Combined anti-CTLA-4 plus anti-PD-1 can partly overcome this adaptive resistance and was recently shown to augment responses in patients with mCRPC with measurable disease. Although bone is the most common site of metastasis in prostate cancer, patients with bone-predominant disease are frequently excluded from trials because they lack measurable disease, which limits assessment of disease progression and tissue sampling. We therefore designed this study to investigate combined ICT in mCRPC to bone.HypothesisCombined anti-CTLA-4 (tremelimumab) plus anti-PD-L1 (durvalumab) is safe and well tolerated in patients with chemotherapy-naïve mCRPC to bone.Patients and methodsIn this single-arm pilot study, men with chemotherapy-naïve mCRPC to bone received tremelimumab (75 mg intravenous) plus durvalumab (1500 mg intravenous) every 4 weeks (up to four doses), followed by durvalumab (1500 mg intravenous) maintenance every 4 weeks (up to nine doses). The primary endpoint was incidence of adverse events. Secondary endpoints included serum prostate-specific antigen (PSA), progression-free survival (PFS), radiographic PFS (rPFS), and maximal PSA decline.ResultsTwenty-six patients were treated between August 8, 2017 and March 28, 2019. Grade ≥3 treatment-related adverse events (TRAEs) occurred in 11 patients (42%), with no grade 4 or 5 events. TRAEs leading to discontinuation occurred in three patients (12%). PSA decline ≥50% occurred in three patients (12%). Six patients (24%) achieved stable disease for >6 months. At a median follow-up of 43.6 months, median rPFS was 3.7 months (95% CI: 1.9 to 5.7), and median overall survival was 28.1 months (95% CI: 14.5 to 37.3). Post-treatment evaluation of the bone microenvironment revealed transcriptional upregulation in myeloid and neutrophil immune subset signatures and increased expression of inhibitory immune checkpoints.ConclusionsTremelimumab plus durvalumab was safe and well tolerated in patients with chemotherapy-naïve mCRPC to bone, with potential activity in a small number of patients as measured by rPFS. Combination of CTLA-4 and PD-L1 blockade with therapies targeting the myeloid compartment or other inhibitory immune receptors may be necessary to overcome mechanisms of resistance within prostate bone microenvironment.Trial registration numberNCT03204812.

4514 Background: Heat Shock Protein 27 (Hsp27) is a multi-functional chaperone protein that regulates cell signaling and survival pathways implicated in cancer progression. In prostate cancer models, Hsp27 complexes with androgen receptor (AR) and enhances transactivation of AR-regulated genes. OGX-427 is a 2nd generation antisense oligonucleotide that inhibits Hsp27 expression with in vitro and in vivo efficacy and was well tolerated with single agent activity in phase I studies. Methods: Chemotherapy-naïve pts with no/minimal symptoms were randomized to receive OGX-427 600 mg IV x 3 loading doses then 1000 mg IV weekly with P 5 mg PO BID or P only. Primary endpoint was the proportion of pts progression free (PPF) at 12 weeks (PCWG2 criteria). A 2-stage MinMax design (H0 = 5%, HA >20%, α=0.1, β=0.1) with 32 pts/arm provides 70% power to detect the difference at 0.10 1-sided significance. Secondary endpoints include PSA decline, measurable disease response, and circulating tumour cell (CTC) enumeration. Results: 38 pts have been enrolled; 1st stage of accrual completed with 2nd stage accruing. In the 1st 32 pts randomized (17 to OGX-427+P, 15 to P), baseline median age was 71 years (53-89), ECOG PS 0 or 1 in 66% and 34% of pts, median PSA 66 (6-606), metastases in bone/lymph nodes/liver or lung was 75/56/9%, 31% had prior P treatment, and 93% had ≥5 CTC/7.5 ml. Predominantly grade 1/2 infusion reactions (chills, diarrhea, flushing, nausea, vomiting) occurred in 47% of pts receiving OGX-427+P. One pt on OGX-427+P developed hemolytic uremic syndrome. A PSA decline of ≥50% occurred in 41% of pts on OGX-427+P, and 20% of pts treated with P. A measurable disease partial response was seen in 3/8 (38%) evaluable pts on OGX-427+P and 0/9 pts on P. CTC conversion from ≥5 to <5/7.5 ml occurred in 50% of pts on OGX-427+P and 31% treated with P. Thus far, in 26 evaluable pts the PPF at 12 weeks was 71% (95% CI: 42-92) in OGX-427+P treated pts and 33% (95% CI: 10-65) in pts on P. Conclusions: These data provide clinical evidence for the role of Hsp27 as a therapeutic target in prostate cancer and support continued evaluation of OGX-427 for pts with CRPC.

128 Background: LEN has anti-angiogenesis and immunomodulatory properties making it ideal to investigate in CRPC. We report on a phase II study investigating LEN in chemotherapy-naïve CRPC patients (pts) Methods: Eligible pts received LEN at 25 mg daily on days 1 – 21 every 28-days until progression. Daily aspirin or coumadin were required. Responses were assessed every 2 cycles. Toxicity was assessed every cycle. Primary end point: The CB of LEN [Sum of complete response (CR), partial response (PR) and stable disease (SD)]. Secondary end points: Toxicity, time to radiographic and PSA progression (TTP and TTP-PSA), time to next treatment (TTNT), overall survival (OS), and LEN’s impact on quality of life (QOL). Results: 31 pts were enrolled; 27 response-evaluable (1 withdrew consent, 3 off per choice after adverse events). Median age is 74 (range 58-89) with 24 (77%) having Gleason ≥ 7 disease. Median PSA is 66 (2.1-918.6). Six pts (19%) had liver/lung involvement. Fourteen pts (51%) showed biochemical response with 4 (15%) having >50% PSA drop. TTP-PSA is 4 months (2-11). No radiographic responses seen but 17 pts had SD for a median of 4 months (2-16) (CB=55%). Median number of LEN cycles was 3 (2-15). With a median follow-up of 18 months (5-38), 17 patients (55%) remain alive; median OS of 18 months. Grade 3/4 hematologic toxicities were most common (neutropenia 41%, leukopenia 12%, anemia 9%, thrombocytopenia 9%). Other grade 3/4 toxicities: venothromboembolism, atrial fibrillation, and dehydration (6% each). Serious adverse events (SAEs) were witnessed in 10 pts (32%) with only 1 (3%, rash) definitely related to LEN. Others were not related or possibly related. Of 27 pts, 7 (26%) had a dose reduction and 2 (7%) required two dose reductions. Dose reductions occurred after cycle 3. QOL scales suggested no adverse impact. Median TTNT is 2 months (9 pts received chemotherapy, 10 pts went onto studies, 3 pts received hormonal therapies, 4 pts received radiation, 3 pts had no therapy yet, and 2 pts remain on LEN). Conclusions: LEN is active as monotherapy in CRPC. Biochemical responses are witnessed and clinical benefit is observed. Myelosuppression is the most common toxicity.

284 Background: Cabazitaxel (C) administered on a 3-weekly dose schedule has shown a survival benefit in mCRPC patients (pts) pre-treated with docetaxel (D) with concerns about toxicity. We sought to evaluate safety and efficacy of a 2-weekly C schedule. Methods: At the EGP hospital from November 2013 to September 2014, 26 mCRPC pts for whom C was indicated (previously treated with D) received C 16 mg/m² on days 1 and 15 of a 4 weeks-cycle plus daily 10 mg prednisone, until completion of 6 cycles, disease progression, unacceptable toxicity or death. We analyzed safety with toxicity grade ≥ 3 and efficacy, including PSA response, time to biochemical progression (TTBP), radiological progression-free survival (rPFS) and overall survival (OS). Results: 26 pts received C in a 2-weekly schedule; full data are available for 20 pts. Median age was 66.5 years, 34.6% of pts were >70 years; 30.8% had ECOG PS 2; 47.8% had Gleason ≥ 8; 53.8% had lymph node metastases; 96.2% had bone metastases; none had lung or liver metastases. Median D cycles previously received were 6; respectively 80% and 88.4% of pts had received ≥ 2 hormonal manipulations and abiraterone acetate (AA). Median baseline hemoglobin was 12.2 g/dL, median PSA 104.6 ng/mL; 42.9% of pts had ALP ≥ 1.5N, 33.3% had LDH ≥ 1.5N. 4 pts (15%) had grade 1 thrombocytopenia at baseline, 1 (3.8%) had grade 4, reflecting diffuse bone marrow involvement. All pts received G-CSF in primary prophylaxis. Median number of C administration was 7, only 4 pts stopped C because of toxicity (2 for asthenia, 1 for febrile neutroepnia, 1 for thrombocytopenia). Toxicities grade ≥3 were: anemia 33.3%; thrombocytopenia 30%; neutropenia 23.8%; febrile neutropenia 5% (1 pt); no grade ≥3 diarrhea was observed. 45% (9 pts) achieved ≥30% PSA response and 30% (6 pts) ≥50% PSA response. Clinical, biological or radiological response occurred in 50% (10 pts). Median TTBP and rPFS were 3.0 months (2.2-3.6) and 4.2 months (2.8-7.4) respectively. Median OS was not reached at the time of data collection. Conclusions: 2-weekly 16 mg/m² C schedule has a manageable toxicity profile in heavily D and AA pretreated mCRPC pts, and warrants controlled prospective evaluation compared to the standard 3-weekly C schedule.

2007 Background: EORTC-1320-BTG investigated the activity, safety and quality of life of therapy with the tetrahydroisoquinoline alkaloid trabectedin (Yondelis) in patients with recurrent higher-grade meningiomas. Trabectedin was originally derived from the Caribbean sea squirt, Ecteinascidia turbinata, and currently is manufactured by total synthesis. Methods: Adult patients with histological diagnosis of WHO grade II or III meningioma and radiologically documented progression after maximal feasible surgery and radiotherapy were randomly assigned in a 2:1 ratio to receive intravenous trabectedin (1.5 mg/m2every three weeks) or local standard of care (LOC). The primary endpoint was progression-free survival (PFS). Results: Within 22.1 months, we randomized a total of 90 patients (n=29 in LOC arm, n=61 in trabectedin arm) in 35 institutions and nine countries. In the LOC arm, the following treatments were administered: hydroxyurea (n=11), bevacizumab (n=9), none (n=4), chemotherapy (n=3), somatostatin analogue (n=1), combined chemotherapy and somatostatin analogue (n=1). With 71 PFS events, median PFS was 4.17 months in the LOC and 2.43 months in the trabectedin arm (hazard ratio [HR] for progression, 1.42; 80% CI, 1.00-2.03; p=0.204) with a PFS-6 rate of 29.1% (95% CI, 11.9%-48.8%) in the LOC and 21.1% (95% CI, 11.3%-32.9%) in the trabectedin arm. Median OS was 10.61 months in the LOC and 11.37 months in the trabectedin arm (HR for death, 0.98; 95% CI, 0.54-1.76; p=0.94).Grade 3 to 5 adverse events occurred in 44.4% (18.5% related, 4 serious adverse events, 0 lethal events) of the patients in the LOC and 59% (32.8% related, 57 serious adverse events and 2 toxic deaths) of patient in the trabectedin arm. Conclusions: In this first prospective randomized trial performed in recurrent grade II or III meningioma, trabectedin did not improve PFS and OS and was associated with significantly higher toxicity as compared to LOC treatment. The data collected in this study may serve as benchmark for future clinical trials in this setting. Clinical trial information: NCT02234050.
