591 Background: FOLFOX+bevacizumab (BEV) is the standard systemic chemotherapy for metastatic colorectal cancer (CRC). We investigated the combination of FOLFOX4 and hepatic arterial infusion (HAI) in patients who had isolated liver metastasis from CRC. We also compared efficacy and safety between this combination therapy and its concomitant use with BEV. Methods: Twenty-five patients entered a phase I/II trial of HAI (5-FU 250 mg/d, leucovorin 25 mg/d; d1-7, q2w) combined with FOLFOX4. Fourteen other patients with a similar background received HAI + FOLFOX4 combined with BEV and the two regimens were compared. Results: In the phase I/II study, the recommended doses for FOLFOX were as follows: L-OHP, 85 mg/m2; l-LV, 100 mg/m2; 5-FU (bolus), 400 mg/m2; and 5-FU (infusion), 600 mg/m2. Sixteen patients who received this regimen showed a response rate of 93.8% (2 CR and 13 PR), a median progression-free survival of 323 days, and a one-year survival rate of 93.7%. In the subsequent phase II trial of HAI + FOLFOX4 with BEV, 14 patients were enrolled and the response rate was 78.6% (2 CR and 9 PR). The outcome was inferior when BEV was used concomitantly. The median numbers of doses were 10 (range: 1-27) for FOLFOX4 and 9 (1-27) for HAI without BEV, whereas the corresponding numbers with BEV were 8 (1-12) and 2 (0-9), respectively. There was a marked decrease in the number of HAI procedures when BEV was used. Thrombosis occurred in 8 patients who received concomitant BEV, which was the most common reason for cessation of HAI. Other adverse events (≥Grade 3) were neutropenia (n=7; 43.8%) and thrombocytopenia (n=2; 12.5%) without BEV or neutropenia (n=7; 43.8%) and diarrhea (n=1; 7.1%) with BEV, and no marked difference was seen between the two regimens. Both regimens were well tolerated. Severe neuropathy was only observed in 1 patient (6.3%; Grade 3) who received concomitant BEV. Conclusions: In the present study, HAI + FOLFOX combined with BEV caused thrombosis and disturbance of wound healing, thereby increasing the incidence of complications and making it difficult to continue treatment. These findings suggest that BEV should not be administered with HAI therapy. No significant financial relationships to disclose.

PURPOSE Venetoclax is an oral BCL-2 inhibitor with single-agent activity in patients with relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma (RRMM) with t(11;14) translocation. Venetoclax efficacy in RRMM may be potentiated through combination with agents including bortezomib, dexamethasone, and daratumumab. METHODS This phase I study ( NCT03314181 ) evaluated venetoclax with daratumumab and dexamethasone (VenDd) in patients with t(11;14) RRMM and VenDd with bortezomib (VenDVd) in cytogenetically unselected patients with RRMM. Primary objectives included expansion-phase dosing, safety, and overall response rate. Secondary objectives included further safety analysis, progression-free survival, duration of response, time to progression, and minimal residual disease negativity. RESULTS Forty-eight patients were enrolled, 24 each in parts 1 (VenDd) and 2 (VenDVd). There was one dose-limiting toxicity in part 1 (grade 3 febrile neutropenia, 800 mg VenDd). Common adverse events with VenDd and VenDVd included diarrhea (63% and 54%) and nausea (50% and 50%); grade ≥ 3 adverse events were observed in 88% in the VenDd group and 71% in the VenDVd group. One treatment-emergent death occurred in part 2 (sepsis) in the context of progressive disease, with no other infection-related deaths on study with medians of 20.9 and 20.4 months of follow-up in parts 1 and 2, respectively. The overall response rate was 96% with VenDd (all very good partial response or better [≥ VGPR]) and 92% with VenDVd (79% ≥ VGPR). The 18-month progression-free survival rate was 90.5% (95% CI, 67.0 to 97.5) with VenDd and 66.7% (95% CI, 42.5 to 82.5) with VenDVd. CONCLUSION VenDd and VenDVd produced a high rate of deep and durable responses in patients with RRMM. These results support continued evaluation of venetoclax with daratumumab regimens to treat RRMM, particularly in those with t(11;14).

PURPOSE: To evaluate the objective response to a short course of hepatic arterial infusion (HAI) using temporary, percutaneously placed catheters alternating with systemic prolonged continuous infusion fluorouracil (ci 5-FU) and daily oral leucovorin (L). PATIENTS AND METHODS: Eligible patients were previously untreated (except for adjuvant therapy) adults with liver-predominant metastases, with Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance status of 0 to 2. Treatment regimen included HAI with fluorodeoxyuridine (FUDR) 60 mg/m2/d and L 15 mg/m2/d continuously infused daily for 4 days. After a 1-week rest, ci 5-FU was administered through a central venous access device using a dose of 180 mg/m2/d with a fixed dose of oral L at 5 mg/m2/d for 21 out of 28 days. Cycles were repeated every 6 weeks. After four cycles of therapy, patients were maintained on ci 5-FU and daily oral L until evidence of progression. RESULTS: Forty-three patients were enrolled onto this trial. One patient was ineligible. The objective response rate for all patients (17 partial, zero complete) was 41% (95% confidence interval [CI], 26% to 56%). Five patients were not able to receive at least one complete cycle of HAI. Among patients who received at least one complete cycle of HAI, the response rate was 46% (95% CI, 30% to 62%). Five patients underwent a liver resection after enrolling onto the protocol. At the time of analysis, estimated median time to progression was 6 months, and estimated median overall survival was 13 months. CONCLUSION: The objective response rate was comparable to that achieved with more prolonged and more frequent HAI using FUDR. This approach should be studied as an acceptable alternative to surgically placed hepatic arterial catheters/pumps and may have a role as neoadjuvant therapy for liver metastases that are unresectable, as well as an adjuvant role for patients with resected hepatic metastatic colorectal cancer.

PURPOSE To assess the efficacy of irinotecan (CPT-11) in the treatment of advanced colorectal cancer in both chemotherapy-naive and pretreated patients. PATIENTS AND METHODS Two hundred thirteen patients (aged 18 to 75 years) with metastatic colorectal cancer, World Health Organization (WHO) performance status < or = 2, and life expectancy > or = 3 months were treated with CPT-11 350 mg/m2 every 3 weeks. All 178 patients eligible for efficacy analysis had not received more than one prior fluorouracil (5-FU)-based chemotherapy regimen (adjuvant or palliative) and had adequate hematologic, renal, and hepatic function. RESULTS Primary tumor sites were the colon (71%) and rectum (28%). Sixty-six percent of the patients had > or = two metastatic sites. Ninety-eight percent of the patients had undergone previous surgery, and 77.5% had received prior chemotherapy. Thirty-two of 178 eligible patients achieved on objective response (four complete responses [CRs] and 28 partial responses [PRs]; response rate, 18%; 95% confidence interval, 12.6% to 24.4%), 65 were stable, and 59 progressed. The response rate was 17.7% in the pretreated group and 18.8% in the chemotherapy-naive group. Within the former subgroup, response rates of 16.1% were reported in patients who were progressive on prior 5-FU chemotherapy and 19.1% in patients who were progressive off such treatment. The median duration of objective response (9.1 months) and median time to achievement of a response (9.3 weeks) did not differ between chemotherapy-naive and pretreated patients. The most frequent adverse events were neutropenia, which developed in 80% of the patients, delayed diarrhea (87%), alopecia (88%), fatigue (81%), and nausea/vomiting (77%). All these adverse events were manageable. Severe (WHO grade 3 or 4) neutropenia was only observed in 18% of the cycles, leukopenia in 11%, delayed diarrhea in 11%, and nausea and vomiting in 3%. Development of simultaneous grade 3 or 4 neutropenia and delayed diarrhea during 4% of the cycles was the safety issue of greatest concern. CONCLUSION CPT-11 has definite activity in the treatment of advanced metastatic colorectal cancer both in chemotherapy-naive and in pretreated patients who experienced disease progression on 5-FU, which suggests a lack of cross-resistance between CPT-11 and 5-FU. Diarrhea and neutropenia, the major toxicities of CPT-11, contribute to the risk to develop febrile neutropenic sepsis.
