TPS8604 Background: T-VEC (formerly OncoVEXGM-CSF) is an oncolytic HSV1 that selectively replicates in tumors. The proposed MOA includes lytic destruction of injected tumors and induction of a systemic anti-tumor immune response enhanced by local GM-CSF expression. Intratumoral T-VEC tx in a 50-patient (pt) ph II study in advanced melanoma (Stage IIIc-IVM1c) was well tolerated and achieved a high rate and duration of response, including 20% CR (Senzer et al., JCO 2009; 27: 5763-71). As immune effects may be delayed, progressive disease (PD) often occurred before response. Based on the ph II data, a randomized ph III trial of T-VEC in unresectable melanoma (the OPTiM study; clinical trials registry NCT00769704) was designed taking into account the response patterns seen with T-VEC and other immunotherapeutic agents. T-VEC is the first "armed" oncolytic agent to enter pivotal testing worldwide. Methods: OPTiM compares the efficacy and safety of intratumoral T-VEC to sc GM-CSF in 430 pts with treated or untreated unresectable Stage IIIb-IVM1c melanoma stratified by typical prognostic factors. Pts are randomized 2:1 to T-VEC (priming dose of up to 4 x 106 pfu intratumorally then 3 wks later by up to 4 x 108 pfu Q2W) or GM-CSF 125 µg/m2 qd sc x 14 days every 28 days. Key eligibility criteria are ≥ 18 yrs old, ECOG 0-1, and at least 1 injectable cutaneous, sc, or nodal tumor. The primary endpoint is durable response rate (DRR: CR or PR continuously maintained for ≥ 6 mo initiating within 12 mo of starting tx; secondary endpoints include OS. Responses are subject to independent review. Pts are treated until wk 24, even with PD. Thereafter pts are treated until clinically significant PD, CR, or for 1 yr. The study has 90% power to show a 10% difference in DRR with 2-sided Fisher Exact Test (α = 5%). Enrollment closed in July 2011 with 439 pts randomized in the US, UK, S Africa, and Canada. Interim analysis in Dec 2010 on 75 pts on study > 9 mo concluded that the study should continue. Results are expected during 2012. Conclusions: T-VEC provides a novel potential tx for melanoma. This pivotal ph III study is expected to report during 2012.

7527 Background: Æ-941 is a shark cartilage extract with antiangiogenic properties. We conducted a placebo-controlled trial testing Æ-941, with IC and CRT, in unresectable stage III NSCLC. Methods: Eligibility criteria included performance status (PS) < 2, weight loss < 10%. Subjects received one of two treatment regimens depending on site of enrollment: carboplatin (C) (AUC 6) and paclitaxel (P) (200 mg/m2) × 2 cycles followed by CRT (60 Gy/30 fractions) with weekly C (AUC 2) and P (45 mg/m2) × 6 doses or cisplatin (CDDP) (75 mg/m2, d1) and vinorelbine (V) (30 mg/m2, d1 and 8) × 2 cycles followed by CRT (60 Gy/30 fractions) with CDDP (75 mg/m2, day 1) and V (15 mg/m2, d1 and 8) × 2 cycles. Subjects were randomized to receive Æ-941 (Arm A) or placebo (Arm B), 120 mL orally twice daily, at the start of IC and continuing after CRT as maintenance therapy. Randomization was stratified for stage, gender, and type of chemotherapy. The primary endpoint was overall survival (OS), with a planned sample size of 756 subjects providing 80% power to detect a 25% difference in OS, assuming a control arm median survival time (MST) of 13 months, type I error 0.05. Results: Between 6/00 and 2/06, 384 subjects were enrolled onto the trial and randomized. In 2/06 the trial was closed to new patient entry due to insufficient accrual. This final analysis is based on 379 randomized and eligible subjects (188 arm A, 191 arm B). Subject characteristics: 60% male, median age 63 years (range 37–84), 56% stage IIIB, 58% C-based chemotherapy, median follow-up 3.7 years. There was no significant difference in OS between arms A and B, with MSTs of 14.4 (95% CI 12.6–17.9) and 15.6 (95% CI 13.8–18.1) months, respectively (log-rank p=0.73). OS by pre-specified stratification factors: stage IIIB vs IIIA (MST 13.9 vs. 17.4 months, p=0.25), C vs. CDDP chemotherapy (MST 14.4 vs. 16.7 months, p=0.13), and male vs. female (MST 15.7 vs. 15.1 months, p=0.74). The study drug was well tolerated. Fewer subjects in arm A experienced grade 3 or higher adverse events (66% vs. 77%, p=0.018). Conclusions: The addition of Æ−941 to IC and CRT does not improve OS in patients with unresectable stage III NSCLC. No significant financial relationships to disclose.

LBA9008 Background: T-VEC is an oncolytic immunotherapy (OI) derived from herpes simplex virus type-1 designed to selectively replicate within tumors and to produce GM-CSF to enhance systemic antitumor immune responses. OPTiM is a randomized, phase III trial of T-VEC or GM-CSF in patients (pts) with unresected melanoma with regional or distant metastases. We report the primary results of the first phase III study of OI. Methods: Key criteria: age ≥18 yrs; ECOG ≤1; unresectable melanoma stage IIIB/C or IV; injectable cutaneous, SC, or nodal lesions; LDH ≤1.5X upper limit of normal; ≤3 visceral lesions (excluding lung), none >3 cm. Pts were randomized 2:1 to intralesional T-VEC (initially ≤ 4 mL x106 pfu/mL then after 3 wks, ≤ 4 mL x108 pfu/mL Q2W) or SC GM-CSF (125 µg/m2qd x 14 days q28d). The primary endpoint was durable response rate (DRR): partial or complete response (CR) continuously for ≥6 mos starting within 12 mos. Responses were per modified WHO by blinded central review. A planned interim analysis of overall survival (OS; key secondary endpoint) was performed. Results: 436 pts are in the ITT set: 295 (68%) T-VEC, 141 (32%) GM-CSF. 57% were men; median age was 63 yrs. Stage distribution was: IIIB/C 30%, IVM1a 27%, IVM1b 21%, IVM1c 22%. Objective response rate with T-VEC was 26% (95% CI: 21%, 32%) with 11% CR, and with GM-CSF was 6% (95% CI: 2%, 10%) with 1% CR. DRR for T-VEC was 16% (95% CI: 12%, 21%) and 2% for GM-CSF (95% CI: 0%, 5%), p<0.0001. DRR by stage (T-VEC, GM-CSF) was IIIB/C (33%, 0%), M1a (16%, 2%), M1b (3%, 4%), and M1c (8%, 3%). Interim OS showed a trend in favor of T-VEC; HR 0.79 (95% CI: 0.61, 1.02). Most common adverse events (AEs) with T-VEC were fatigue, chills, and pyrexia. Serious AEs occurred in 26% of T-VEC and 13% of GM-CSF pts. No ≥ grade 3 AE occurred in ≥ 3% of pts in either arm. Conclusions: T-VEC demonstrated both a statistically significant improvement in DRR over GM-CSF in pts with unresectable stage IIIB-IV melanoma and a tolerable safety profile; an interim analysis showed a trend toward improved OS. T-VEC represents a novel potential tx option for melanoma with regional or distant metastases. Clinical trial information: NCT00769704.

Oncolytic Immunotherapy

Purpose Talimogene laherparepvec (T-VEC) is a herpes simplex virus type 1–derived oncolytic immunotherapy designed to selectively replicate within tumors and produce granulocyte macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF) to enhance systemic antitumor immune responses. T-VEC was compared with GM-CSF in patients with unresected stage IIIB to IV melanoma in a randomized open-label phase III trial. Patients and Methods Patients with injectable melanoma that was not surgically resectable were randomly assigned at a two-to-one ratio to intralesional T-VEC or subcutaneous GM-CSF. The primary end point was durable response rate (DRR; objective response lasting continuously ≥ 6 months) per independent assessment. Key secondary end points included overall survival (OS) and overall response rate. Results Among 436 patients randomly assigned, DRR was significantly higher with T-VEC (16.3%; 95% CI, 12.1% to 20.5%) than GM-CSF (2.1%; 95% CI, 0% to 4.5%]; odds ratio, 8.9; P < .001). Overall response rate was also higher in the T-VEC arm (26.4%; 95% CI, 21.4% to 31.5% v 5.7%; 95% CI, 1.9% to 9.5%). Median OS was 23.3 months (95% CI, 19.5 to 29.6 months) with T-VEC and 18.9 months (95% CI, 16.0 to 23.7 months) with GM-CSF (hazard ratio, 0.79; 95% CI, 0.62 to 1.00; P = .051). T-VEC efficacy was most pronounced in patients with stage IIIB, IIIC, or IVM1a disease and in patients with treatment-naive disease. The most common adverse events (AEs) with T-VEC were fatigue, chills, and pyrexia. The only grade 3 or 4 AE occurring in ≥ 2% of T-VEC–treated patients was cellulitis (2.1%). No fatal treatment-related AEs occurred. Conclusion T-VEC is the first oncolytic immunotherapy to demonstrate therapeutic benefit against melanoma in a phase III clinical trial. T-VEC was well tolerated and resulted in a higher DRR (P < .001) and longer median OS (P = .051), particularly in untreated patients or those with stage IIIB, IIIC, or IVM1a disease. T-VEC represents a novel potential therapy for patients with metastatic melanoma.

3075 Background: L-BLP25 is an innovative cancer vaccine that incorporates a synthetic MUC1 lipopeptide in a liposomal delivery system. L-BLP25 is expected to elicit an immune response to cancer cells that express MUC1. Previous clinical studies have demonstrated that L-BLP25 has the potential to extend survival of pts with stage IIIB locoregional NSCLC (Butts C et al., JCO 2005; 23:6674–6681). The present ph I-II study was designed to assess the safety of the current formulation of L-BLP25 using a monophosphoryl lipid A in pts with unresectable stage IIIA and stage IIIB NSCLC. Methods: Pts with stable disease or an objective response to upfront radical therapy with chemoradiation for unresectable stage III NSCLC, plus ECOG 0–1 were eligible. All pts were vaccinated according to a previously described schedule (1). Maintenance immunizations were administered every 6-wks until disease progression. Primary and secondary endpoints were safety and survival respectively. Results: Twenty-two pts were recruited at 7 sites in Canada. 16 pts were evaluated for this interim safety analysis (8 stage IIIA, 8 stage IIIB, median age; 57, ECOG 0 56%, concurrent chemotherapy; 93.8%). Thirteen pts had a partial response and 3 had stable disease following chemoradiation. Thirteen pts experienced an adverse event (AE) during the first 4 vaccinations of which 7 pts had a L-BLP25 related adverse event. Grade 1/2 AEs related to L-BLP25 ≥10% included fatigue, dyspnea, insomnia, anorexia, headache, diarrhea, paresthesia, abdominal pain, influenza-like illness, urinary tract infection and peripheral neuropathy. No pts discontinued L-BLP25 due to an AE and no grade 3/4 AEs related to L-BLP25 were reported. Six pts (37.5%) had an injection site reaction. As of September 2006, 10 pts were still on study treatment. Conclusions: This formulation of L-BLP25 was well tolerated and the side effect profile was similar to that seen in previous studies (1). A controlled global multi-center phase III trial is underway to further evaluate L-BLP25 in this patient population. No significant financial relationships to disclose.

TPS8584 Background: Platinum-based concurrent chemoradiation(CRT) followed by one year of the human immunoglobulin G1 kappa (IgG1κ) monoclonal antibody, durvalumab, which blocks the interaction of PD-L1 with its receptors PD-1 and CD80, is the standard of care for locally advanced, unresectable non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Early studies have noted the feasibility of concomitant administration of radiotherapy and immune checkpoint inhibition in NSCLC. EA5181 will evaluate the use of concomitant durvalumab with chemo-radiotherapy for locally advanced NSCLC. Methods: EA5181 is a randomized, multi-center, phase III study for patients with unresectable Stage III NSCLC comparing the efficacy of CRT with concomitant durvalumab to CRT, followed by one year of durvalumab. Eligibility criteria include: an ECOG PS of 0-1, adequate pulmonary function (FEV1 and DLCO both > 40%), no history of auto-immune disease and no past chemotherapy or RT for this lung cancer. Stratification factors include age, sex, stage, and planned concurrent chemotherapy type. Eligible patients with be randomized 1:1 to receive 60Gy RT (2Gy fractions) CRT and durvalumab (Arm A) or 60Gy CRT (Arm B). Investigators will be allowed to choose from three different chemotherapy options: cisplatin/etoposide q 28 days, Pemetrexed/cisplatin q 21 days, and weekly paclitaxel/Carboplatin. Arm A will use 750mg fixed of durvalumab (considered equivalent to 10mg/kg) on days 1, 11, and 21 of RT. Assuming no disease progression, patients in both arms will be followed by monthly (q28 days) fixed dose of 1500mg durvalumab for one year which will be given optimally within 14 days of radiation or when (non)hematologic toxicity is < Grade 2. The primary endpoint is overall survival. Secondary endpoints include progression-free survival, incidence of local/distant progression and toxicity. The target sample size is 660 patients, anticipated to recruit over 55 months, with follow up for an additional 42 months. This provides approximately 82% power if the true hazard ratio for overall survival was 0.75 or less, with 2-sided alpha of 0.05, and assuming a median survival of 42.5 months in the control arm. The study was activated on 04/09/20 and has currently accrued 90 patients on 02/03/21. Clinical trial information: NCT04092283.

Malaria disease is one of the environmental health problems, Health Office of Katingan District Kasongan District Health Center. Katingan Hilir is a malaria endemic area with an API value in 2010 of 5.6 ‰ and is a red zone in malaria stratafication. Malaria discovery rates from 2008 to 2010 always increase. The high rate of malaria morbidity is due to the lack of knowledge level and community behavior pattern.The aim of this research is to know the correlation between knowledge level and behavioral pattern about malaria with malaria incident in Kasongan sub-district of Katingan Hilir district of Katingan Regency. The type of research is analytic, research design using Fisher exact test. The number of respondents in this study was 58 respondents.Chi-square statistical test results with Continuity Correction obtained p-value 0.002 indicates that there is a relationship between the level of knowledge with the incidence of malaria and the results of statistical tests with Fisher exact test obtained p-value 0.002 that there is a relationship between behavioral patterns with malariaincidence.Efforts that can be done, among others, control the factors causing malaria such as the level of knowledge and behavior patterns as well as increasing the extension of public awareness.
