LBA5006 Background: ICON7 was designed to investigate safety and efficacy of adding bevacizumab to standard chemotherapy in women with newly diagnosed ovarian cancer. Analyses of mature progression-free survival (PFS) data suggest a PFS benefit from bevacizumab (p=0.0041, a 15% improvement at 12 months and 1.5 months overall), and a trend for overall survival (OS) improvement, hazard ratio (HR)=0.81, 95%CI=0.63 to 1.04, p =0.098. The final analysis of OS will be performed when 715 deaths have occurred. An interim analysis with at least 365 deaths was requested by regulatory authorities considering licensing. This was approved by the independent data monitoring and steering committees. A subgroup analysis for poor prognosis patients (FIGO III debulked to >1.0cm or FIGO IV with debulking) was performed in an exploratory manner. Methods: Eligible women with high-risk early (FIGO stage I or IIa (grade 3 or clear cell), capped ≤10%) or advanced (stage IIb-IV) epithelial ovarian, primary peritoneal or fallopian tube cancer were randomised (1:1) to 6 cycles of 3 weekly chemotherapy (carboplatin AUC 5 or 6 and paclitaxel 175mg/m2) alone, or the same chemotherapy given concurrently with bevacizumab (7.5mg/kg) for 5 or 6 cycles followed by continued 3-weekly single-agent bevacizumab for 12 additional cycles or until progression whichever was the earlier. Results: From December 2006 to February 2009, 1,528 women were randomised from 263 centres in 7 GCIG groups. Baseline characteristics were balanced between arms: median age (57 years); ECOG PS 0-1 (47%); high-risk early-stage disease (9%); poor prognosis patients (30%); histology (69% serous, 8% endometrioid, 8% clear cell). Overall OS analysis: median follow-up 28 months, 377 deaths (200 standard, 177 bevacizumab), HR=0.84, 95%CI=0.69 to 1.03, p=0.099. Exploratory subgroup analysis of poor prognosis patients: 188 deaths (109 standard, 79 bevacizumab), HR=0.64, 95%CI=0.48 to 0.85, p=0.0022 with p=0.015 for test for interaction (treatment/risk group). Conclusions: The overall trend for improvement in OS from bevacizumab continues with a numerically larger benefit in poor prognosis patients.

Abstract Background LATITUDE was a randomized, double-blind, international and phase 3 study of abiraterone acetate plus prednisone in patients with high-risk metastatic hormone-naïve prostate cancer. In the first interim analysis of LATITUDE (clinical cutoff date: 31 October 2016), significant prolongation in overall survival and radiographic progression-free survival (co-primary endpoints) was observed when compared with placebo. The results of the Japanese subgroup analysis of LATITUDE first interim analysis were consistent with those of the overall population. In this study, overall survival and safety results from the final analysis of the Japanese subgroup of the LATITUDE study are presented (clinical cutoff date: 15 August 2018). Methods Abiraterone acetate (1000 mg/day) and prednisone (5 mg/day) were administered orally in the abiraterone acetate plus prednisone group, and matching placebos in the placebo group. Results Of the 1199 patients included in LATITUDE, 70 constituted the Japanese subgroup (abiraterone acetate plus prednisone: n = 35, placebo: n = 35). Following a median (range) follow-up of 56.6 (2.5, 64.2) months, the median overall survival was not reached in both the treatment arms of the Japanese subgroup (hazard ratio: 0.61; 95% confidence interval: 0.27–1.42; nominal P = 0.2502). A total of 23 deaths (abiraterone acetate plus prednisone: 9 [25.7%], placebo group: 14 [40.0%]) were reported in Japanese subgroup. Grade 3/4 adverse events were reported in 24 (68.6%) and 9 (25.7%) patients in the abiraterone acetate plus prednisone and placebo groups, respectively. Conclusions In this Japanese subgroup analysis, addition of abiraterone acetate plus prednisone to androgen-deprivation therapy demonstrated favorable efficacy and safety outcomes in patients with newly diagnosed, high-risk metastatic hormone-naïve prostate cancer. Survival benefits observed in the Japanese subgroup first interim analysis were sustained long-term and were consistent with the overall population.

PURPOSE The primary objective was to determine if vaginal cuff brachytherapy and chemotherapy (VCB/C) increases recurrence-free survival (RFS) compared with pelvic radiation therapy (RT) in high-intermediate and high-risk early-stage endometrial carcinoma. PATIENTS AND METHODS A randomized phase III trial was performed in eligible patients with endometrial cancer. Eligible patients had International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics (2009) stage I endometrioid histology with Gynecologic Oncology Group protocol 33–based high-intermediate–risk criteria, stage II disease, or stage I to II serous or clear cell tumors. Treatment was randomly assigned between RT (45 to 50.4 Gy over 5 weeks) or VCB followed by intravenous paclitaxel 175 mg/m2 (3 hours) plus carboplatin (area under the curve, 6) every 21 days for three cycles. RESULTS The median age of the 601 patients was 63 years, and 74% had stage I disease. Histologies included endometrioid (71%), serous (15%), and clear cell (5%). With a median follow-up of 53 months, the 60-month RFS was 0.76 (95% CI, 0.70 to 0.81) for RT and 0.76 (95% CI, 0.70 to 0.81) for VCB/C (hazard ratio, 0.92; 90% confidence limit, 0.69 to 1.23). The 60-month overall survival was 0.87 (95% CI, 0.83 to 0.91) for RT and 0.85 (95% CI, 0.81 to 0.90) for VCB/C (hazard ratio, 1.04; 90% confidence limit, 0.71 to 1.52). Vaginal and distant recurrence rates were similar between arms. Pelvic or para-aortic nodal recurrences were more common with VCB/C (9% v 4%). There was no heterogeneity of treatment effect with respect to RFS or overall survival among clinical or pathologic variables evaluated. CONCLUSION Superiority of VCB/C compared with pelvic RT was not demonstrated. Acute toxicity was greater with VCB/C; late toxicity was similar. Pelvic RT alone remains an effective, well-tolerated, and appropriate adjuvant treatment in high-risk early-stage endometrial carcinomas of all histologies.

Kidney renal clear cell carcinoma (KIRC) has long been identified as a highly immune-infiltrated tumor. However, the underlying role of pyroptosis in the tumor microenvironment (TME) of KIRC remains poorly described. Herein, we systematically analyzed the prognostic value, role in the TME, response to ICIs, and drug sensitivity of pyroptosis-related genes (PRGs) in KIRC patients based on The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) database. Cluster 2, by consensus clustering for 24 PRGs, presented a poor prognosis, likely because malignancy-related hallmarks were remarkably enriched. Additionally, we constructed a prognostic prediction model that discriminated well between high- and low-risk patients and was further confirmed in external E-MTAB-1980 cohort and HSP cohort. By further analyzing the TME based on the risk model, higher immune cell infiltration and lower tumor purity were found in the high-risk group, which presented a poor prognosis. Patients with high risk scores also exhibited higher ICI expression, indicating that these patients may be more prone to profit from ICIs. The sensitivity to anticancer drugs that correlated with model-related genes was also identified. Collectively, the pyroptosis-related prognosis risk model may improve prognostic information and provide directions for current research investigations on immunotherapeutic strategies for KIRC patients.

Objectives: The aim of this study was to determine the 3-year overall survival among the epithelial ovarian cancer patients based on the histology, age, and the stage of the disease in Iran during 2011-2017. Materials and Methods: This study was a cross-sectional retrospective study that was conducted on 179 newly diagnosed patients with epithelial ovarian cancer, who had referred to the gynecologic cancers clinic in a referral training hospital in Tehran during 2011-2017. The patients’ data including the demographic characteristics of the patients, the stage of the disease, and the treatment type were analyzed based on the pathologic responses. Results: Among 220 newly diagnosed patients with epithelial ovarian cancer, 179 of them were suitable for the follow-up. There were 93 death and 85 living cases among these patients and the mean age of the patients was 50.5 ± 11.3. In addition, most of the patients were in stage 3 (60.9%) and 6.7% of them were in stage 4. The most common pathology was serous adenocarcinoma (70.9%). In this study, the overall survival rate had no connection with the type of tumor histology but it was related to the stage of the disease (P=0.05). Finally, there was no mortality in stage one and among the mucinous adenocarcinoma cases. Conclusions: The survival in the epithelial ovarian cancer was related to the stage of the disease and among all the pathologies, mucinous adenocarcinoma and clear cell carcinoma had the best survival rate.

204 Background: Previous results from the ATTRACTION-3 phase 3 trial demonstrated a significant improvement in overall survival and a favorable safety profile compared with taxane chemotherapy (CT) in previously-treated ESCC patients. To our knowledge, no long-term efficacy and safety data of this immune checkpoint inhibitor has been reported in ESCC. Herein, we report the three-year survival data of Nivo in ESCC. Methods: In ATTRACTION-3, 419 patients with unresectable advanced or recurrent ESCC refractory or intolerant to 1 prior fluoropyrimidine/platinum-based CT were randomized in a 1:1 ratio to receive Nivo (N = 210) or the investigator’s choice of CT (paclitaxel or docetaxel) (N = 209) until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. The primary endpoint was overall survival (OS). A subgroup analysis of OS according to the best overall response (BOR) was performed. The onset of treatment-related adverse events of special interest over time in the Nivo arm was also evaluated. Results: As of data cut-off on 25 May 2020, 3 years after the last patient was enrolled, the median OS (mOS) was 10.91 months with Nivo versus 8.51 months with CT [hazard ratio (HR) 0.79; 95% confidence interval (CI) 0.64-0.97]. The OS rates of patients with Nivo and CT were 20.2 % and 13.5 % at 24 months, and 15.3% and 8.7% at 36 months, respectively. In the subgroup analysis of OS by BOR, mOS in CR/PR patients were 19.91 and 15.41 months (HR 0.84, 95%CI 0.46-1.54) and that in SD patients were 17.38 and 9.36 months (HR 0.45, 95%CI 0.26-0.78) in the Nivo and CT arm, respectively. Furthermore, mOS in PD patients were 10.91 and 6.18 months (HR 0.56, 95%CI 0.33-0.95) in the Nivo and CT arm, respectively. No new safety signals were detected during the three-year follow-up. Time to onset of the event of special interest was within the range of events previously observed in other indications. Conclusions: At three-year follow up, Nivo continued to show improved OS over CT in pretreated patients with advanced ESCC patients. Nivo showed a longer mOS than CT regardless of BOR. During the three-year follow-up, no new safety signals were observed. Clinical trial information: NCT02569242.
