Purpose This randomized, multicenter, blinded, placebo-controlled phase III trial tested the efficacy and safety of bevacizumab (BV) with gemcitabine and carboplatin (GC) compared with GC in platinum-sensitive recurrent ovarian, primary peritoneal, or fallopian tube cancer (ROC). Patients and Methods Patients with platinum-sensitive ROC (recurrence ≥ 6 months after front-line platinum-based therapy) and measurable disease were randomly assigned to GC plus either BV or placebo (PL) for six to 10 cycles. BV or PL, respectively, was then continued until disease progression. The primary end point was progression-free survival (PFS) by RECIST; secondary end points were objective response rate, duration of response (DOR), overall survival, and safety. Results Overall, 484 patients were randomly assigned. PFS for the BV arm was superior to that for the PL arm (hazard ratio [HR], 0.484; 95% CI, 0.388 to 0.605; log-rank P < .0001); median PFS was 12.4 v 8.4 months, respectively. The objective response rate (78.5% v 57.4%; P < .0001) and DOR (10.4 v 7.4 months; HR, 0.534; 95% CI, 0.408 to 0.698) were significantly improved with the addition of BV. No new safety concerns were noted. Grade 3 or higher hypertension (17.4% v < 1%) and proteinuria (8.5% v < 1%) occurred more frequently in the BV arm. The rates of neutropenia and febrile neutropenia were similar in both arms. Two patients in the BV arm experienced GI perforation after study treatment discontinuation. Conclusion GC plus BV followed by BV until progression resulted in a statistically significant improvement in PFS compared with GC plus PL in platinum-sensitive ROC.

LBA5007 Background: BEV, a humanized anti-VEGF monoclonal antibody, has shown a progression-free survival (PFS) benefit in 2 frontline phase III trials in patients with EOC, PPC and FTC. The therapeutic impact of BEV in combination with carboplatin (C) and gemcitabine (G) followed by single agent BEV to disease progression (PD) was evaluated in this phase III trial in the platinum-sensitive recurrent setting. Methods: Patients had recurrent, platinum-sensitive EOC, PPC or FTC, 1 prior regimen, no prior BEV, ECOG performance status 0-1, measurable disease. Subjects were randomized to: Arm A: [IV C (AUC 4, Day (D) 1) + G (1,000 mg/m2 D1 and 8) + placebo (PL) D1] q21D x 6 cycles (c) → PL q21D until PD or unacceptable toxicity (tox) Arm B: [CG + BEV (15 mg/kg) D1] q21D x 6 c → BEV q21D until PD or tox primary endpoint was investigator assessed PFS (RECIST). Secondary endpoints included objective response (OR), overall survival (OS), duration of response and safety. The design provided 80% power to detect a 27% reduction in the hazard of progression or death in Arm B vs A, limiting the overall type I error of 5%. Results: OCEANS enrolled 484 patients (242 per arm) from 4/07 - 1/10, median follow up of 24 months. BEV plus CG followed by single agent BEV to PD significantly increased PFS compared to CG alone (HR=0.484, p<0.0001). OR increased by 21% (p<0.0001). OS data is immature with only 29% of patients having had an event. The safety profile was consistent with other BEV trials. Conclusions: Results show a statistically significant and clinically relevant benefit when bevacizumab is added to chemotherapy in patients with recurrent, platinum sensitive EOC, PPC, and FTC. This is the first phase III trial of an antiangiogenic to demonstrate a clinical benefit to these patients. [Table: see text]

TPS463 Background: Combination therapy with the anti-HER2 antibody trastuzumab plus fluoropyrimidine and platinum is the current standard of care for patients with HER2+ mG/GEJc. We hypothesize that combination anti–PD-1 and anti-HER2 therapy will result in T-cell activation, augment antibody-dependent, cell-mediated cytotoxicity, and potentiate antitumor immune response in HER2+ patients. A phase 2 study in HER2+ mG/GEJc demonstrated the safety and preliminary efficacy of trastuzumab/pembrolizumab/chemotherapy; the objective response rate was 87%, and the disease control rate was 100% (Janjigian YY, ASCO GI 2019). KEYNOTE-811 (ClinicalTrials.gov, NCT03615326), a global, multicenter, randomized, placebo-controlled, phase 3 study, is underway. Methods: Key eligibility criteria are age ≥18 years; previously untreated unresectable or metastatic HER2+ (centrally confirmed IHC 3+ or IHC 2+/ISH > 2.0) G/GEJ cancer; life expectancy > 6 months with RECIST v1.1 measurable disease; and adequate organ function and performance status (ECOG PS of 0 or 1). Patients will be randomly assigned 1:1 to receive chemotherapy with pembrolizumab 200 mg intravenously (IV) or placebo with trastuzumab 6 mg/kg (after 8 mg/kg load) every 3 weeks (Q3W) up to 2 years or until intolerable toxicity or disease progression. Investigator-choice chemotherapy will include day 1 cisplatin 80 mg/m2 IV and 5-fluorouracil 800 mg/m2/day IV (days 1-5) or oxaliplatin 130 mg/m2 IV and capecitabine 1000 mg/m2 BID days 1-14 (Q3W). Primary end points are progression-free survival and overall survival. Secondary end points are objective response rate, duration of response, and safety and tolerability. Adverse events are graded per CTCAE v4.0 and will be monitored for 30 or 90 days after treatment. Patients will be followed up for survival. Planned enrollment is approximately 692 patients. Clinical trial information: NCT03615326.

Purpose Patients with recurrent ovarian, peritoneal, or fallopian tube cancer have limited therapeutic options. There are no reports of nanoparticle albumin–bound paclitaxel (nab-paclitaxel) in patients with recurrent platinum-sensitive disease. We report efficacy and toxicity with nab-paclitaxel in this group. Patients and Methods Forty-seven patients enrolled (44 assessable patients). Main inclusion criteria were histologically or cytologically confirmed epithelial cancer of the ovary, fallopian tube, or peritoneum (any stage, grade 2 to 3 if stage I) and measurable disease according to Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) or elevated CA-125 (> 70 U/mL) in patients without measurable disease. Patients received nab-paclitaxel 260 mg/m2 administered intravenously for 30 minutes on day 1 of a 21-day cycle for six cycles or until disease progression. Results Median age was 65.5 years; 76% of patients had stage IIIC or IV disease, 81% had Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance status of 0, and 94% had prior surgery. For assessable patients, the objective response rate (ORR) was 64% (15 complete responses [CR] and 13 partial responses [PR] among 44 assessable patients). In patients evaluated with RECIST only, the ORR was 45% (one CR and four PR of 11 patients). In patients with only elevated CA-125, ORR was 82% (seven CRs and two PRs of 11 patients). In patients meeting both RECIST and CA-125 criteria, the ORR was 64% (seven CRs and seven PRs of 22 patients). Median time to response was 1.3 months (range, 0.5 to 4.8 months). Estimated median progression-free survival was 8.5 months. The most frequent grade 3 to 4 treatment-related toxicities were neutropenia (24%) and neuropathy (9%). Conclusion Nab-paclitaxel is active in this group of patients with recurrent ovarian, peritoneal, or fallopian tube cancer. The ORR was 64%. Toxicities were manageable. Further studies of nab-paclitaxel in combination with platinum are warranted.

Metastatic Setting

Purpose Uveal melanoma is the most common primary intraocular malignancy in adults with no effective systemic treatment option in the metastatic setting. Selumetinib (AZD6244, ARRY-142886) is an oral, potent, and selective MEK1/2 inhibitor with a short half-life, which demonstrated single-agent activity in patients with metastatic uveal melanoma in a randomized phase II trial. Methods The Selumetinib (AZD6244: ARRY-142886) (Hyd-Sulfate) in Metastatic Uveal Melanoma (SUMIT) study was a phase III, double-blind trial ( ClinicalTrial.gov identifier: NCT01974752) in which patients with metastatic uveal melanoma and no prior systemic therapy were randomly assigned (3:1) to selumetinib (75 mg twice daily) plus dacarbazine (1,000 mg/m2 intravenously on day 1 of every 21-day cycle) or placebo plus dacarbazine. The primary end point was progression-free survival (PFS) by blinded independent central radiologic review. Secondary end points included overall survival and objective response rate. Results A total of 129 patients were randomly assigned to receive selumetinib plus dacarbazine (n = 97) or placebo plus dacarbazine (n = 32). In the selumetinib plus dacarbazine group, 82 patients (85%) experienced a PFS event, compared with 24 (75%) in the placebo plus dacarbazine group (median, 2.8 v 1.8 months); the hazard ratio for PFS was 0.78 (95% CI, 0.48 to 1.27; two-sided P = .32). The objective response rate was 3% with selumetinib plus dacarbazine and 0% with placebo plus dacarbazine (two-sided P = .36). At 37% maturity (n = 48 deaths), analysis of overall survival gave a hazard ratio of 0.75 (95% CI, 0.39 to 1.46; two-sided P = .40). The most frequently reported adverse events (selumetinib plus dacarbazine v placebo plus dacarbazine) were nausea (62% v 19%), rash (57% v 6%), fatigue (44% v 47%), diarrhea (44% v 22%), and peripheral edema (43% v 6%). Conclusion In patients with metastatic uveal melanoma, the combination of selumetinib plus dacarbazine had a tolerable safety profile but did not significantly improve PFS compared with placebo plus dacarbazine.
