54 Background: Recent trials have highlighted the clinical utility of second-line hormonal therapies for CRPC. KC, an oral inhibitor of CYP3A4 and CYP17, is commonly used in this setting. Germline SNPs in genes critical to hormone synthesis, transport, metabolism, binding sites, and degradation may contribute to variability in outcomes observed in KC treated CRPC pts. Methods: Between 1/07 and 10/08, all PCa pts seen in the Indiana University Simon Cancer Center oncology clinics were approached for recruitment to the Prostate Cancer Genetic Risk Evaluation of SNPs Study (PROGRESS). Participants completed a demographic and clinical questionnaire and provided a peripheral blood sample. Only pts with initiated on KC were included in this analysis. Germline DNA was analyzed for SNP genotyping on a 128-SNP chip using a TaqMan OpenArray GT Kit. The chip included genes critical to hormone signaling, transport, and elimination pathways with minor allele frequencies > 5%. Pts were followed for progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) endpoints. Univariable analyses were performed to identify significant associations between SNP genotype, clinical parameters, and PFS and OS outcomes. Results: Between January 2007 and October 2008, 39 pts with CRPC initiated on KC therapy enrolled. Demographics included: age (median) – 70 yrs, prostate specific antigen (PSA) (median) – 13.0 ng/ml, PSA doubling time (median) – 2.9 months, metastatic –85%, ECOG PS 0– 74%. Age < 70 was associated with shorter PFS (p=0.010) and age > 70 was associated with shorter OS (p=0.030). SNPs significantly associated with PFS and OS are summarized in the table. Conclusions: Interpatient differences in hormonal pathway germline SNPs may contribute to variability in clinical outcomes in pts treated with KC.

272 Background: AA pts experience greater prostate cancer (PC) incidence and mortality compared to Caucasian (C) pts but are underrepresented in clinical trials (CTs). Greater representation of AAs is required to explore differences in clinical benefit in advanced disease where recent data has reaffirmed the role of D. Methods: In a retrospective analysis, baseline characteristics, Gleason score (GS), ECOG PS, number of cycles (cys), maximum prostate-specific antigen (PSA) declines, radiographic responses, overall survival (OS) and progression-free survival (PFS) were captured in 2 recent D based CTs. Results: Of 136 pts, 28 (21%) self-identified as Black or AA. Median age of AA pts is 66 (50-78 yrs). Median GS is 8 (5-10). Median ECOG PS is 1 (0-2). 15 pts have bone and soft tissue disease; 13 pts have bone only disease. Median number of cys is 28.5 (1-63). Of 27 evaluable pts, 26 had PSA declines (-26 to -99%). Radiographic responses include 11 (39%) partial responses and 16 (57%) pts with stable disease. Median OS for AAs is 29.0 months (mos) (95% CI: 20.9-34.7 mos); median PFS is 21.5 mos (95% CI: 13.7-28.9 mos). Median OS for all non-AA pts is 24.8 mos (95% CI: 21.8-29.5 mos); median PFS is 16.1 mos (95% CI: 14.1-20.1 mos). The VEGF-634G > C SNP, associated with a more aggressive phenotype of PC, was evaluated in 54 pts. No evidence was found that genotype frequency varies between C and AA pts. Conclusions: In this analysis, AA pts did not have inferior OS (29 mos) or PFS (21.5 mos) outcomes compared to non-AA pts (24.8, 16.1 mos). Further analysis from larger studies is required to determine differential benefits of D for AA pts compared to non-AA pts. Clinical trial information: NCT00089609, NCT00942578.

58 Background: Multiple treatment options now exist for metastatic CRPC patients (pts). Germ-line SNPs in docetaxel (D) transport, metabolism, binding site, and degradation genes may contribute to variability in outcomes observed in D treated CRPC pts. Methods: Between 1/07 and 10/08, all PCa pts seen in the Indiana University Simon Cancer Center oncology clinics were approached for recruitment to the Prostate Cancer Genetic Risk Evaluation of SNPs Study (PROGRESS). Participants completed a demographic and clinical questionnaire and provided a blood sample. Only CRPC pts treated with D were included in this analysis. Germ-line DNA was analyzed for SNP genotyping on a 128-SNP chip using a TaqMan OpenArray GT Kit (Applied Biosystems). The chip included genes critical to D signaling, transport, and elimination with minor allele frequencies > 5%. Pts were followed for progression-free (PFS) and overall survival (OS). Univariable analyses were performed to identify significant associations between SNP genotype, clinical parameters, and PFS and OS outcomes. Results: 60 pts with metastatic CRPC initiated on D enrolled. Demographics included: age (median) – 69 yrs, ECOG PS 0– 40%, prostate specific antigen (PSA) (median) – 129.9 ng/ml, PSA doubling time (median) – 1.8 months, visceral mets –25%. No clinical parameters were associated with PFS and OS. Significant SNP associations are summarized below. Conclusions: Differences in germ-line ABCG2, ABCB1, and TUBB4 SNPs may contribute to variation in clinical outcomes in CRPC pts treated with D. [Table: see text] [Table: see text]

Introduction: Radiographic imaging is used to monitor disease progression for men with metastatic castrate-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC). The optimal frequency of imaging, a costly and limited resource, is not known. Our objective was to identify predictors of radiographic progression to inform the frequency of imaging for men with mCRPC. Methods: We accessed data for men with chemotherapy-naive mCRPC in the abiraterone acetate plus prednisone (AA-P) group of a randomized trial (COU-AA-302) (n=546). We used Cox proportional hazards modelling to identify predictors of time to progression. We divided patients into groups based on the most important predictors and estimated the probability of radiographic progression-free survival (RPFS) at six and 12 months. Results: Baseline disease and change in prostate-specific antigen (PSA) at eight weeks were the strongest determinants of RPFS. The probability of RPFS for men with bone-only disease and a ≥50% fall in PSA was 93% (95% confidence interval [CI] 87–96) at six months and 80% (95% CI 72–86) at 12 months. In contrast, the probability of RPFS for men with bone and soft tissue metastasis and <50% fall in PSA was 55% (95% CI 41–67) at six months and 34% (95% CI 22–47) at 12 months. These findings should be externally validated. Conclusions: Patients with chemotherapy-naive mCRPC treated with first-line AA-P can be divided into groups with significantly different risks of radiographic progression based on a few clinically available variables, suggesting that imaging schedules could be individualized.

51 Background: Significant variation in response duration and overall survival exists among prostate cancer (PCa) patients treated with ADT. Germ-line SNPs affecting function of genes critical to hormone synthesis, transport, metabolism, binding sites, and degradation may contribute to variability in clinical outcomes observed in PCa patients treated with ADT. Methods: Between 1/07 and 10/08, all PCa patients seen in the Indiana University Simon Cancer Center oncology clinics were approached for recruitment to the Prostate Cancer Genetic Risk Evaluation of SNPs Study (PROGRESS). Participants completed a demographic and clinical questionnaire and provided a peripheral blood sample. Only patients with confirmed ADT initiation dates were included in this analysis. Germ-line DNA was analyzed for SNP genotyping on a 128-SNP chip using a TaqMan OpenArray GT Kit (Applied Biosystems). The chip included genes critical to hormone signaling, transport, and elimination pathways with minor allele frequencies > 5%. Patients were followed for progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) endpoints. Univariable analyses were performed to identify significant associations between SNP genotype, clinical parameters, and PFS and OS outcomes. Results: 107 patients with PCa initiated on ADT enrolled. Demographics included: age (median)–69 yrs, prostate specific antigen (PSA) (median)–28.0 ng/ml, PSA doubling time (median)–4.9 months, biochemical/metastatic–25%/75%, concurrent anti-androgen therapy–44%. No clinical parameters were associated with PFS and OS. Significant SNP associations with PFS and OS are summarized in the Table. Conclusions: Interpatient differences in hormone pathway germ-line SNPs may contribute to variability in clinical outcomes in patients treated with ADT. [Table: see text] [Table: see text]

Purpose To explore whether progression-free survival (PFS) or biochemical PFS can be used as a predictor of overall survival (OS) and to investigate the dependence between PFS and OS in men with castrate-resistant prostate cancer. Patients and Methods Data from nine Cancer and Leukemia Group B trials that enrolled 1,296 men from 1991 to 2004 were pooled. Men were eligible if they had prostate cancer that had progressed during androgen deprivation therapy and did not receive prior treatment with chemotherapy, immunotherapy, or other nonhormonal therapy. Landmark analyses of PFS at 3 and 6 months from randomization/registration were performed to minimize lead time bias. The proportional hazards model was used to assess the significance effect of PFS rate at 3 and at 6 months in predicting OS. In addition, biochemical progression using the definitions of Prostate-Specific Antigen Working Group (PSAW) Criteria PSAWG1 and PSAWG2 were analyzed as time-dependent covariates in predicting OS. Results The median survival time among men who experienced progression at 3 months was 9.2 months (95% CI, 8.0 to 10.0 months) compared with 17.8 months in men who did not experience progression at 3 months (95% CI, 16.2 to 20.4 months; P < .0001). Compared with men who did not progress at 3 and at 6 months, the adjusted hazard ratios for death were 2.0 (95% CI, 1.7 to 2.4; P < .001) and 1.9 (95% CI, 1.6 to 2.4; P < .001) for men who experienced progression at 3 and 6 months, respectively. In addition, biochemical progression at 3 months predicted OS. The association between PFS and OS was 0.30 (95% confidence limits = 0.26, 0.32). Conclusion PFS at 3 and 6 months and biochemical progression at 3 months predict OS. These observations require prospective validation.

5057 Background: Radiographic progression-free survival (rPFS) is commonly used as a co-primary endpoint in randomized clinical trials in men with metastatic castrate-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC). However, rPFS has not been established as a valid surrogate endpoint of overall survival (OS) in men with mCRPC. Here, we hypothesized that rPFS is a reliable surrogate for OS in mCRPC. We also explored whether PFS is a valid surrogate endpoint of OS at the aggregate trial level. Methods: We performed a systematic search of the literature encompassing the period January 2004-December 2020 using PubMed and clinical trials.gov to identify completed phase III trials in mCRPC post-docetaxel. Eligible trials had to be randomized phase III therapeutic trials that reported OS, PFS or rPFS. OS was measured from the date of random assignment to date of death from any cause or date of last follow-up. rPFS was defined as the time from random assignment to date of disease progression on CT and/or Tc bone scan per trial definition or death from any cause, whichever occurred first. PFS included PSA progression as a component of the composite endpoint. Trial level surrogacy was evaluated by fitting linear regression on the treatment effect of rPFS (or PFS) and OS (in other words, the weighted linear regression of the log(hazard ratio) of OS on the log(hazard ratio) of rPFS). It was pre-specified that rPFS would be considered a valid surrogate for OS if R² was 0·7 or higher. Results: We identified 33 in men with mCRPC post docetaxel approval. We assessed the association between PFS and OS in 29,456 patients from 30 trials. Overall, a moderate correlation was observed at the trial level between OS and PFS ( R2 = 0.46, 95 %CI = 0.20-0.68) in these trials. In 18 trials with 16,818 mCRPC patients where rPFS was considered as a key endpoint, a moderate correlation between the treatment effects on rPFS and OS was observed at the trial level ( R2= 0.65, 95% CI = 0.23-0.87). Conclusions: This meta-analysis demonstrates moderate correlation between treatment effects of rPFS and OS in patients with mCRPC. However, rPFS did not meet the pre-specified surrogacy threshold of 0.7. Clinical trial information: several.

115 Background: R is an investigational, fully human monoclonal antibody to hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) that prevents HGF binding to the c-Met receptor. We conducted a 3-arm, double-blind, randomized phase 2 study to examine the safety and estimate the efficacy of adding R to MP in CRPC pts. Methods: Eligible pts (≥ 18 years) had progressive CRPC, prior taxane-based chemotherapy, and ECOG PS ≤ 1. The primary endpoint was overall survival (OS). Secondary endpoints included progression-free survival (PFS), PSA response, pharmacokinetics (PK), and safety. Pts were randomized 1:1:1 to R (15 mg/kg IV Q3W) + MP (12 mg/m2 IV Q3W, 5 mg BID orally) [Arm A]; R (7.5 mg/kg IV Q3W) + MP [Arm B]; or Pbo + MP [Arm C] for up to 12 cycles. Results: 142 pts (Arms A/B/C: 45/48/49 pts) were enrolled between March 10, 2009 and December 2, 2009. Median age: 67/67/69 yrs; ECOG PS 1: 69/71/61%; progression during prior taxane therapy: 51/54/47%. Most common reason for discontinuation was disease progression (60/58/69%). Efficacy is shown in the table. R + MP showed no statistically significant difference in OS. Adverse events (AE) with ≥ 5% difference in Arms A + B vs C included peripheral edema, 24/8%; nausea, 44/35%; mucosal inflammation, 8/0%; rash, 8/0%; arthralgia, 16/8%; neutropenia, 16/8%. Grade 5 AE: cardiac arrest, pulmonary embolism, septic shock (1 each in Arm B). R showed linear PK with mean (SD) steady state Cmin of 251 (100) and 127 (35) μg/mL and Cmax of 609 (126) and 297 (75) μg/mL in Arms A and B. R did not affect PK of M. Conclusions: R + MP was well tolerated with no unexpected toxicities. R + MP showed no significant improvements in OS, PFS, and PSA response. [Table: see text]

Background With the introduction of oral chemotherapy, the paradigm for cancer treatment is shifting. Use of oral chemotherapy agents offers a non-invasive option for patients with metastatic castrate-resistant prostate cancer. However, these medications are not without challenges including strict adherence for optimal effects, novel toxicity profiles, frequent lab parameter monitoring, high cost, and proper handling and disposal methods. Pharmacists are positioned to play a key role in providing patients with the education required to assure an optimal treatment course is carried out. Methods Two cohorts of patients receiving abiraterone, bicalutamide, or enzalutamide for metastatic castrate-resistant prostate cancer seen in our outpatient cancer center 21 months before and 24 months after the implementation of a pharmacist-led oral chemotherapy-monitoring program in December of 2012 were retrospectively compared. Patients were evaluated for number of interventions, adherence to lab parameter monitoring, and overall time on each therapy. Results Of the 64 patients identified, 31 patients fulfilled inclusion criteria. A significant increase in the average number of interventions per patient (6.9 vs. 2.6; P = 0.004) and adherence to lab parameter monitoring (10 vs. 3; P = 0.04) in the post-program implementation cohort was found. However, no significant difference in overall time on therapy (10.3 vs. 8.1; P = 0.341) between the two groups was observed. Conclusion These results suggest a potential opportunity exists to maximize oral chemotherapy treatment outcomes with the addition of a formalized monitoring program directed by an oncology pharmacist.
