8513 Background: MP+thalidomide (MPT) and MP+bortezomib (MPV) have shown significant progression-free survival and overall survival (OS) benefits in NDMM pts > 65 years (y) but are associated with peripheral neuropathy (PN). CFZ, a novel proteasome inhibitor, has shown promising activity and a favorable toxicity profile with low PN rates. Methods: This PhI/II study in NDMM >65y was designed to determine maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of CMP and assess safety and efficacy. In PhI, CFZ was started at 20mg/m2, then escalated to 27, 36, and 45mg/m2, given IV in 42-day (D) cycles (C) on D1/2/8/9/22/23/29/30 for 9C. Melphalan 9mg/m² and prednisone 60mg/m² were given PO D1–4 of every 45-day cycle. MTD was based on dose-limiting toxicity (DLT) in C1 defined as any grade (G) 4 hematologic adverse event (AE), any hematologic AE preventing aministration of ≥ 2 C1 CFZ doses except G4 thrombocytopenia without bleeding or G4 neutropenia ≤7D, ≥G3 febrile neutropenia, or any ≥G3 nonhematologic AE. Results: As of Jan 6, 2013, 24 pts have been enrolled in PhI: 6 for each dose level. There were 2 DLTs at 45mg/m2(fever, hypotension) resulting in a MTD of 36mg/m². In PhII, 45 additional pts received CMP at 36mg/m² CFZ for N=69 total PhI/II pts (median age 74y). ORR was 89% with 51% ≥VGPR. With median follow-up of 12 mo, the projected 2y OS was 89.9%. CMP was well tolerated without PN ≥G2. Conclusions: These results compare favorably to those of MPV, MPT, MP+lenalidomide (R), and R+dex in similar pts (ORR 71% San Miguel NEnglJMed2008, 76% Facon Lancet2007, 80% Palumbo JClinOncol2007 and 85% Rajkumar LancetOncol2010, respectively). CFZ 36mg/m2 +MP is tolerable and effective in elderly NDMM pts. Treatment is ongoing. Final safety and efficacy data will be presented during the meeting. Clinical trial information: NCT01279694.

Clinical Trial Information

8032 Background: The impact of t(11;14) (16%–24% of MM pts) on prognosis is not fully understood. Consensus is lacking on the effects of induction treatment (tx) on outcomes with t(11;14). The Connect MM Registry (NCT01081028) is a large, US, multicenter, prospective observational cohort study of pts with NDMM designed to examine real-world diagnostic patterns, treatment (tx) patterns, clinical outcomes, and HRQoL pt-reported outcomes in pts with NDMM. The impact of t(11;14) on tx outcomes are reported. Methods: Analysis included data from pts from 250 community, academic, and government sites in cohort (C) 1 (9/2009–12/2011) and C2 (12/2012–4/2016), who completed first-line (1L; induction) tx and were tested for t(11;14) by FISH or cytogenetics. Primary end points (progression-free survival [PFS] and overall survival [OS]) were measured from start of 1L tx to earliest event (PFS, death or progression; OS, death), loss to follow-up, or data cutoff, adjusted for baseline (BL) risk factors. A sensitivity analysis excluding pts with concomitant cytogenetic abnormalities [del 17p, t(4;14), t(14;16), 1q+] was also performed. Results: By 1/2018, 3011 pts were enrolled; 2938 were treated. Of 1574 enrolled pts tested for t(11;14), 378 were t(11;14)+ and 1196 were t(11;14)−. More pts in C2 vs C1 were t(11;14)+ (60% vs 40%). BL characteristics were similar between groups. t(11;14) status did not affect PFS ( P= NS) or OS ( P= NS; Table). Pts in C1 and C2 received similar 1L txs (IMiD agent + proteasome inhibitor [PI], 30% vs 42%; PI only, 42% vs 43%; IMiD agent only, 17% vs 11%). Results were similar when pts with concomitant abnormalities were excluded. Conclusions: Results of this analysis suggest that t(11;14) does not affect PFS and OS outcomes in NDMM pts.

We aimed to evaluate the efficacy and toxicity of paclitaxel combined with pazopanib in advanced angiosarcoma (AS). The primary end point was progression-free survival (PFS) rate at six months (PFSR6). Planned accrual was 44 patients in order to detect a PFSR6 of >55%, with an interim futility analysis of the first 14 patients. The study did not meet its predetermined interim target of 6/14 patients progression-free at 6 months. At the time of this finding, 26 patients had been enrolled between July 2014 and April 2016, resulting in an overrunning of 12 patients. After a median follow-up of 9.5 (IQR 7.7–15.4) months, PFSR6 amounted to 46%. Two patients had a complete and seven patients a partial response. Patients with superficial AS had a significantly higher PFSR6 (61% vs. 13%, p = 0.0247) and PFS (11.3 vs. 2.7 months, p < 0.0001) compared to patients with visceral AS. The median overall survival in the entire cohort was 21.6 months. A total of 10 drug-related serious adverse effects were reported in 5 patients, including a fatal hepatic failure. Although our study did not meet its primary endpoint, the median PFS of 11.6 months in patients with superficial AS appears to be promising. Taking recent reports into consideration, future studies should evaluate the safety and efficacy of VEGFR and immune checkpoint inhibitors with or without paclitaxel in a randomized, multiarm setting.

e14006 Background: Previous studies have shown that brain metastases of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) with positive driver genes have poor prognosis. There is still lack of prospective studies on the efficacy and safety of targeted therapy combined with concurrent radiotherapy for brain metastases(BM). Methods: NSCLC patients, with ECOG score 0-2, having MRI confirmed brain or meningeal metastases were eligible. Patients must have driver gene mutation and received corresponding targeted therapy. The intracranial radiotherapy regimen was SRS or whole brain radiotherapy. The primary objective was iPFS (intracranial progression-free survival); Secondary objectives were: iORR (intracranial objective response rate), PFS (progression-free survival), OS (overall survival). MMSE (Mini Mental State Examination) and FACT-Br was carried out before/after weekly radiotherapy and during systematic treatment. Treatment-related toxicities were assessed according RTOG/EORTC criteria. Tumor responses were evaluated using RECIST V1.1 criteria. Survival analysis was performed using the Graphprism version 6.0 by Kaplan-Meier method and log-rank test. Results: 23 NSCLC with BM was included. Among them, 10 patients were newly diagnosed with NSCLC BM. 2 patients’ BM progressed after targeted therapy. 11 NSCLC patients were newly diagnosed with BM after targeted therapy. 91.3% of patients presented an EGFR mutation, including primarily EGFR 19-exon deletion, EGFR 21-L8585R. 11.5% presented with c-MET mutation. Median age was 58.34 yrs(44-71yrs). Patients were mostly treated with Erolotinib and Gefitinib. All patients were adenocarcinoma. At last follow-up, for patients newly diagnosed with NSCLC BM, 8 patients had achieved intracranial progression, and 7 patients had reached OS, of which 1 died before completing WBRT. The median iPFS was 9.3m(95%CI:0.571-4.055) and the median OS was 11.9m (95%CI:0.2752 -2.732). As for patients who progressed after targeted therapy, one patient’s OS was 4.4m, iPFS of the other patient was 3.9m. Among NSCLC patients who were newly diagnosed with BM after targeted therapy, 8 patients had achieved intracranial progression and 5 patients had reached OS. The median iPFS was 6.13m (95%CI:0.247-1.751) and the mOS was 13.8m (95%CI:0.3660-3.634). Common adverse effects include dry skin, fatigue, dizziness, headache, anorexia, and grade I myelosuppression and no serious adverse events (SAEs); MMSE and FACT-Br scores were no significant differences at baseline and follow-up. Conclusions: In stage IV brain metastatic NSCLC with driver gene mutation, targeted therapy combined with concurrent radiotherapy for BM is tolerable, and there is no significant impact on the quality of life and cognitive function after radiotherapy. The evaluation of efficacy requires further follow-up. Support:LC2019ZD009,81972853 and 81572279.

Abstract Background: The activity of V in myeloma was first described in the 1970’s. Although Phase II data suggest that V demonstrates single agent activity, subsequent reports have questioned its role. Due to these conflicting results, we conducted a subanalysis investigating the effect of V dose in the phase II DVd-T regimen that we have previously reported (Agrawal et al ASH 2003). We evaluated the effects of V dose on progression free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) in newly diagnosed and relapsed/refractory patients treated with DVd-T. Patients and Methods: As previously reported, this Phase II study enrolled 102 patients with newly diagnosed or relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma with evidence of end organ damage. DVd-T was administered as previously reported. After best response, patients were maintained on prednisone 50mg every other day and the maximum tolerated dose of thalidomide until disease progression. For patients experiencing grade 1 neuropathy, V was reduced by 25%, and for grade 2, by 50%. Patients developing grade 3/4 neuropathy had V discontinued and thalidomide suspended until toxicity decreased by at least one grade. Univariate analyses were conducted to assess the effect of V dose reduction or elimination on PFS and OS. Multivariate analyses were performed to adjust for the impact of age, platelet count, stage, quality of response (CR or near CR versus SD or PR), and thalidomide dose. Results: Trial included 53 newly diagnosed and 49 relapsed/refractory patients. Median age was 62.9 years. 59% had stage 3 or 4 disease. 37% had abnormal cytogenetics. Median beta-2 microglobulin was 4.1. Overall response rate of 87% was seen in newly diagnosed patients (36% achieved CR; 13% near CR; 38% PR; 8% SD; 6% PD). In the relapsed/refractory patients, overall response rate of 87% was achieved (21% achieved CR; 26% near CR; 40% PR; 13% SD). Median follow up was 28.1 months. Median PFS for the newly diagnosed group was 28.2 months and 15.5 for the relapsed/refractory group. Median OS was 39.9 months for the relapsed/refractory group. After 50 months of follow-up for the newly diagnosed group, median OS has not been reached. In total, 464 cycles were administered, of which 225 were given with full dose V and 242 with reduced dose or eliminated V. Grade 3/4 neuropathy occurred in 22 patients. Univariate analysis revealed that reducing or eliminating V had a significant positive effect on PFS and OS (p = 0.0002 and 0.02 respectively). Multivariate analysis adjusting for age at start of study, platelet count, stage, quality of response [CR or near CR versus SD or PR], and thalidomide dose, similarly found that reducing or eliminating the dose of V had a significant positive effect (p = 0.0121) on PFS. However, multivariate analysis did not reveal the same effect on OS (p = 0.11). Conclusions: This subanalysis suggests that the use of full dose V in the DVd-T regimen may have a negative effect on PFS. The exact mechanism by which V affects PFS is not clear. Studies are now on-going investigating this regimen without V. Figure Figure

Abstract Background: Mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) is an unfavorable subtype of B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma characterized by median progression-free survival (PFS) and median overall survival (OS) of only 1.5 and 3–4 years respectively. Although high-dose therapy and an autotransplant may prolong OS, it does not result in a long-term disease free survival. Therefore, there is a need for novel therapeutic approaches for this entity. Methods: We conducted a single-arm phase II study in subjects with newly-diagnosed MCL to assess efficacy and safety of a novel intensive regimen R-MACLO-IVAM-T, a modification of a protocol designed by Magrath et al (JCO1996;14:925). The study size of 22 patients was based on precision of a two-sided 95% confidence interval for the 18-month progression free survival rate. Eligible subjects had a confirmed diagnosis of MCL using WHO criteria, age 18–75 years, ECOG PS ≤ 2, adequate organ function and no history of HIV or prior cancer. Lymphoma extent at presentation was assessed by standard staging procedures as well as esophagogastroduodenoscopy and colonoscopy. Prior to initiating thalidomide maintenance, subjects were enrolled in the STEPS® program. Cycle 1 consisted of R-MACLO: rituximab 375 mg/m2 IV on day 1, doxorubicin 45 mg/m2 IV on day 1, cyclophosphamide 800 mg/m2 IV on day 1 and 200 mg/m2/day on days 2–5, vincristine 1.5 mg/m2 on days 1 and 8 capped to 2mg, methotrexate 1.2 g/m2 IV on day 10 over 1 hour followed by 5.52 g/m2 IV over 23 hours followed by leucovorin 36 hours later. G-CSF was begun on day 13. When the ANC was >1.5×109/L, cycle 2 with R-IVAM was begun: rituximab 375 mg/m2 IV day 1, cytarabine 2 g/m2 IV every 12 hours on days 1 and 2, etoposide, 60 mg/m2 on days 1–5 and ifosfamide 1.5 g/m2 on days 1–5 with mesna. Fourteen days after ANC recovery from cycle 2, cycles 3 and 4 were given in identical fashion to 1 and 2. Four weeks after ANC recovery from cycle 4, subjects were re-staged and responses were assessed by standard criteria. Subjects achieving CR at the end of therapy received thalidomide 200 mg/day until MCL relapse or intolerable toxicity. Results: Accrual started in 4/2004 and ended in 3/2008 when the planned 22 subjects were enrolled. All subjects were evaluable for toxicity and 21 were evaluable for response. Median age was 56.5 years (range 39–73). All subjects had at least stage 3 disease with bone marrow involvement in 19 and gastrointestinal involvement in 10. Distribution according to IPI: 0–1 factor, 3; 2 factors, 8; 3 factors, 8; and 4 factors, 3. Twenty subjects had diffuse variant and 2 had blastic variant. Nineteen subjects completed all 4 cycles of therapy; treatment was stopped in 2 subjects after 2 and 3 cycles respectively, and one subject died during the first cycle. Of the 21 subjects completing 2 cycles of therapy, 20 achieved CR and one PR. Two subjects relapsed at 9 and 33 months respectively, while 19 remain relapse free after median follow-up of 25 months (range 5–51). With a total follow-up of 545 months, the estimated relapse rate is 4.4 per 100 patients per year. There were two deaths: 1 from sepsis on cycle 1 day 8 and the other in CR at 38 months from non-small cell lung cancer diagnosed 19 months after MCL. Common severe toxicities were grade 3–4 neutropenia, thrombocytopenia and anemia in 33%, 19% and 17% of R-MACLO cycles and in 50%, 88% and 68% of R-IVAM cycles respectively. There were 14 bacteremias in 82 cycles, 12 of which were after R-IVAM therapy. Six episodes of reversible grade 1–2 renal toxicity occurred after methotrexate. The thalidomide maintenance dose was reduced in 6 subjects due to grade 3–4 neutropenia and reduced or stopped in 8 subjects because of grade 3–4 peripheral neuropathy. Patients remain under follow-up for relapse and survival. Conclusions: R-MACLO-IVAM-T results in a high overall response rate of 100% (95% CR and 5% PR) and a low relapse rate. At a median follow-up of 25 months, median PFS and OS were not reached. The 2-year actuarial PFS of 94% compares favorably with previously reported 2-year actuarial PFS of 40% and 67% for CHOP-like regimens without and with upfront bone marrow transplantation (Blood2005;105: 2677). The contribution of thalidomide maintenance to this outcome requires additional study. A multicenter clinical trial is suggested.

Abstract Background: In newly diagnosed myeloma patients the combination of bortezomib with melphalan-prednisone (VMP) was superior to MP. In relapsed-refractory patients the 4 drug combination of bortezomib-melphalan-prednisone-thalidomide (VMPT) induced a high proportion of complete responses (CR). Methods: Newly diagnosed myeloma patients (N=393) older than 65 years, from 58 centers in Italy, were randomly assigned to receive VMPT (N=193) or VMP (N=200). Initially, patients were treated with nine 6-week cycles of VMPT (bortezomib 1.3 mg/m2 days 1,4,8,11,22,25,29,32 in cycles 1–4 and days 1,8,22,29 in cycles 5–9; melphalan 9 mg/m2 days 1–4; prednisone 60 mg/m2 days 1–4 and thalidomide 50 mg days 1–42, followed by bortezomib 1.3 mg/m2 every 15 days and thalidomide 50 mg/day as maintenance) or VMP (bortezomib, melphalan and prednisone at the same doses and schedules previously described without maintenance). In March 2007, the protocol was amended: both VMPT and VMP schedules were changed to nine 5-week cycles and bortezomib schedule was modified to weekly administration (bortezomib 1.3 mg/m2 days 1,8,15,22 in cycles 1–9). Primary end-point was progression-free survival (PFS). Results: Patient characteristics were similar in both groups: median age was 71 years, 23% of patients were aged > 75 years. Patients who received at least 1 cycle were evaluated: 152 patients for VMPT (62 received bortezomib bi-weekly infusion and 90 weekly infusion) and 152 patients for VMP (62 received bortezomib bi-weekly infusion and 90 weekly infusion). Data were analyzed in intention-to-treat. The very good partial response (VGPR) rate was higher in the VMPT group (55% versus 42%, p=0.02), including a CR rate of 31% in the VMPT group and 16% in the VMP group (p=0.003). In the subgroup treated with weekly infusion of bortezomib, VGPR was 59% for VMPT and 37% for VMP (p=0.004), including 28% CR for VMPT and 10% for VMP (p=0.004). Subgroup analyses did not show any statistical difference between responses and either age, B2-microglobulin or chromosomal abnormalities, such as del13, t(4;14), t(14;16) and del17. After a median follow-up of 13.6 months, the 2-year PFS was 83.9% in the VMPT group and 75.7% in the VMP group (HR=0.73, 95% CI 0.38–1.42, p=0.35). In patients who received weekly infusion of bortezomib, the 2-year PFS was 86.8% in the VMPT group and 78.1% in the VMP group (HR=0.65, 95% CI 0.24–1.8, p=0.41). In patients who achieved CR after induction, the 2-year PFS was 100% for VMPT and 79% for VMP (p=0.02). The 3-year overall survival (OS) was 89.5% in the VMPT group and 88.7% in the VMP group (HR=1.02, 95% CI 0.43–2.46, p=0.96). The incidence of grade 3–4 adverse events (AEs) was similar in both groups. In the VMPT patients and in the VMP patients, the more frequent AEs were neutropenia (36% vs 31%), thrombocytopenia (20% vs 19%), peripheral neuropathy (18% vs 12%), infections (14% vs 10%), and gastrointestinal complications (7% vs 8%), respectively. The weekly infusion of bortezomib significantly decreased the incidence of grade 3–4 peripheral neuropathy (9% for VMPT and 3% for VMP). Conclusion: VMPT is superior to VMP in terms of response rates. Longer follow-up is needed to assess their effects on PFS and OS. The weekly infusion of bortezomib significantly reduced the incidence of grade 3–4 peripheral neuropathy without influencing outcome. Table.

3538 Background: CRC liver metastases can be resected after downsizing with intensive chemotherapy schedules, with a strong correlation between the response and resection rates. Cetuximab plus chemotherapy has been shown to increase the rates of tumor response and resection of liver metastases. (Van Cutsem et al, JCO 2011). Methods: Patients (pts) with technically non-resectable and/or with > 4 liver metastases were randomized to treatment with FOLFOX/cetuximab (arm A) or FOLFIRI/cetuximab (arm B) and evaluated regarding resectability every 2 months. Resection was offered to all patients who became resectable during the study. K-ras and b-raf status were retrospectively evaluated. Data on tumor response and resection were reported earlier (Folprecht et al, Lancet Oncol 2010). Overall and progression free survival were analyzed in December 2012. Results: Between Dec 2004 and March 2008, 56 pts were randomized to arm A, 55 to arm B. For the current analysis, 109 pts were evaluable for overall survival (OS), and 106 patients for PFS. The median OS was 35.7 [95% CI: 27.2-44.2] months (arm A: 35.8 [28.1-43.6], arm B: 29.0 [16.0-41.9], HR 1.03 [0.66-1.61], p=0.9). The median PFS was 10.8 [9.3-12.2] months (Arm A: 11.2 [7.2-15.3], Arm B: 10.5 [8.9-12.2], HR 1.18 [0.79-1.74], p=0.4). Patients with R0 resection had a better OS (median: 53.9 [35.9-71.9] mo) than patients without R0 resection (27.3 [21.1-33.4] mo, p=0.002) and a better PFS (median 15.4 [11.4-19.5] and 8.9 [6.7-11.1] mo in R0 resected and not R0 resected pts, p<0.001). The 5 year survival in R0 resected patients is 46.2% [29.5-62.9%].

9013 Background: Dabrafenib is a selective BRAF inhibitor with demonstrated efficacy in BRAF V600E-positive mutation in MM. The primary analysis of BREAK-3 (NCT01227889) compared progression-free survival (PFS) in patients (pts) with BRAF V600E-positive mutation MM treated with dabrafenib or DTIC. Methods: Median PFS for dabrafenib of 5.1 months (mo) and study methods were previously described (Hauschild A, et al. Lancet. 2012,380:358–365). Independent review ended at the primary analysis. PFS was updated in Jun 2012 at median follow-up of 10.5 mo for dabrafenib (67% of PFS events), and 9.9 mo for DTIC. Median overall survival (OS) was not reached, so another analysis of OS and safety was performed with data as of Dec 2012, at which time the median follow-up was 15.2 (dabrafenib) and 12.7 (DTIC) mo. PFS of subjects who crossed over was also evaluated at that time. Results: PFS hazard ratio was 0.37 [95% CI; 0.23, 0.57]; median PFS was 6.9 mo dabrafenib and 2.7 mo DTIC. In Dec 2012, 36/63 DTIC pts crossed over; median PFS was 4.3 [95% CI; 4.1, 6.1] mos. OS is presented in the Table.The four most common adverse events (AE) on the dabrafenib arm were hyperkeratosis (39%), headache (35%), arthralgia (35%), and pyrexia (32%). Serious AEs ≥ 5% on the dabrafenib arm included cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma/keratoacanthoma (10%) and pyrexia (5%). Conclusions: Longer follow-up confirms the benefits of dabrafenib on PFS and response rate. Median OS in the dabrafenib arm was over 18 mo and over 15 mo in the DTIC arm. OS results are confounded by crossover of DTIC pts to dabrafenib and likely by subsequent therapy after progression. The effects of subsequent therapy results will be investigated. The safety profile had no significant changes. Clinical trial information: NCT01227889. [Table: see text]

1079 Background: Bevacizumab (Beva) is no longer unanimously recommended in the management of breast cancer (BC). Given the absence of faithful predictors of Beva treatment outcome, we made the hypothesis that constitutional gene polymorphisms could play a role in this context. We report the pharmacogenetic ancillary study of the prospective COMET trial conducted in advanced BC patients (pts) receiving first-line Beva associated with paclitaxel. Methods: Relevant targeted gene polymorphisms were analyzed (blood) in 203 prospective pts (mean age 55.3, median follow-up 24 months). VEGFA at positions -2578C > A (rs699947), -1498T > C (rs833061), -634G > C (rs2010963), and 936C > T (rs3025039) were analyzed by PCR-RFLP. VEGFR1 319A > C (rs9582036), VEGFR2 at positions 604C > T (rs2071559), 1192C > T (rs2305948), 1416T > A (rs1870377), IL8 251T > A (rs4073), CYP2C8 139C > T (rs1572080), 399T > C (rs10509681) and ABCB1 at positions 1199 C > TA (rs2229109), 2677G > TAC (rs2032582) were analyzed by Mass-Array Agena. ABCB1 1236C > T (rs1128503) and 3435T > C (rs1045642) were analyzed by pyrosequencing. All fitted HWE. Results: Median progression-free survival (PFS) was 10.8 months. VEGFR1 319A allele was associated with longer PFS (p = 0.03). The VEGFA-1498T allele was significantly associated with both longer overall survival (OS) (p = 0.005) and PFS (p = 0.065). The VEGFA -2578C allele was associated with greater OS (p = 0.002) and PFS (p = 0.071). These two VEGFA polymorphisms were in linkage disequilibrium (p < 0.0001). Multivariate Cox analysis showed that VEGFA -2578 (p = 0.001) and VEGFR2 1416 (p = 0.025) were significant predictors of OS: the score of favorable alleles (VEGFA -2575C and VEGFR2 1416T) was highly associated with OS (p = 0.0003), with median survival at 24 months being 30% for score 0 (95%CI 15-61), 65% for score 1 (95%CI 55-75) and 90% for score 2 (95%CI 67-90). Conclusions: Application of an easy-to-perform low-cost genotyping test may identify strong predictors of Beva outcome in metastatic BC pts. In the current era of precision medicine, a pharmacogenetic-based personalized Beva therapy deserves to be prospectively validated in BC pts. Clinical trial information: 2012-A00244-39.

e20530 Background: Activated circulating endothelial cells (aCECs) have been indicated as a potential biomarker of angiogenesis in a variety of cancers. Several studies have revealed that aCECs may reflect the extent of tumor angiogenesis, and the level of aCECs counts may has correlation with progression-free survival (PFS) in anti-angiogenesis therapy on NSCLC patients. Therefore, we investigated the association between aCECs and PFS of Anlotinib treatment in ALTER-0303 study. Methods: NSCLC patients with aCECs counts in ALTER-0303 study were observed. Samples were prospectively collected at six time points: before treatment (baseline), on the 7th, 15th, 21th, 42th, 63thday of Anlotinib treatment. aCECs was identified by Flow cytometry (FCM). The prognostic value of aCECs counts was analyzed and, the patients were stratified according to their ratio of the minimum aCECs counts in all time points and counts on baseline (aCECs min/baseline) as <1 and ≥1. Results: Forty-nine patients were included of which 35 and 14 had an aCECs min/baseline<1 and ≥1, respectively in Anlotinib arm. Median follow-up was 8.6 months. In univariate survival analysis, patients with min/baseline<1 had longer PFS [HR=0.439, 95% CI (0.211-0.912), P = 0.023], the median PFS for the patients with aCECs min/baseline <1 and ≥1 were 193 days and 124 days, respectively (shown in Table). However, there were no significant relation between PFS and such aCECs min/baseline ratio found in control arm of ALTER-0303 study. Conclusions: A decrease of aCECs counts from baseline during an initial period of Anlotinib therapy may predict longer PFS and good response in NSCLC patients.
