e13521 Background: The vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) antibody bevacizumab (Bev) and the VEGF receptor (VEGFR) inhibitor sunitinib are efficacious agents in many malignancies. This combination has been previously evaluated in phase I studies of advanced solid tumors. In addition to renal cell carcinoma (RCC), objective responses in the previous phase I occurred in melanoma and adrenal carcinoma. An expansion phase of the phase I study was undertaken primarily to obtain further safety data in these tumor types. Methods: Patients (pts) with metastatic solid tumors with ECOG performance status 0-1 were enrolled on a phase I trial of sunitinib (37.5 mg daily weeks 1-4) and Bev (5 mg/kg iv on days 1, 15 and 29) of a 6 week cycle. Responses were assessed by CT scans performed at baseline and every 12 weeks based on RECIST criteria v1.0. Results: Twenty-two pts were enrolled (10 males, 12 females; median age 58 years) in the expansion cohort. Tumor types included melanoma (11), RCC (5), adrenal cancer (5) and angiosarcoma (1). Prior systemic treatment included chemotherapy (41%) and immunotherapy (27%). Common all grade toxicities included fatigue (77%), hypertension (73%), thrombocytopenia (68%), nausea (59%) and oral mucositis (55%). Grade 3 or higher toxicities occurred in 15 pts (68%); including hypertension (41%), thrombocytopenia (23%) and fatigue (14%). Seven pts developed hemorrhagic events, all grade 1 or 2. Two pts experienced grade 4 thrombocytopenia, 3 RCC pts developed grade 1 thrombotic microangiopathy (TMA); while 1 melanoma patient developed decreased haptoglobin (grade 1) with associated thrombocytopenia (grade 4) and schistocytes consistent with TMA. A median of 2 cycles were completed (range, 1-8). Best response in 19 evaluable pts included partial response 21% (4/19; melanoma (2), adrenal (1), and RCC(1)); stable disease 21% (4/19) and progressive disease 58% (11/19). Overall, 6 pts (31.5%) had measurable reduction in tumor burden. Conclusions: The safety profile of Bev plus sunitinib in melanoma and adrenal carcinoma pts is similar to the previously evaluated toxicities in RCC pts. Although reversible, combined VEGF and VEGFR inhibition may lead to microangiopathy even in non-RCC pts. Clinical trial information: NCT00357318.

3526 Background: XL880 is a sub-nM inhibitor of the hepatocyte growth factor receptor (Met) and VEGF receptor family with low in vitro nM inhibition of PDGFRβ, KIT, FLT3, Tie-2 and Ron. Methods: The safety of XL880 was evaluated in two phase 1 studies. XL880 was administered mass-based on a 5 days on / 9 days off schedule (study 1) or as a fixed daily dose (study 2). Inclusion criteria include ECOG performance status = 2, adequate liver, cardiac, and renal function and no brain metastases. Tumor response is assessed every 8 wks by RECIST criteria. Pharmacokinetics, pre and post treatment tumor biopsies and plasma markers of angiogenesis (VEGF, sVEGFR and Ang2) were collected. Results: To date, 51 pts have been dosed in studies 1 & 2. In study 1, dose limiting toxicities (DLT) included reversible Gr3 elevations of lipase, hepatic transaminases and proteinuria. The maximum tolerated dose (MTD) was 3.6 mg/kg. In study 2, the MTD has not been defined. Common adverse events include hypertension and fatigue with loss of concentration. In study 1, 5 of 40 pts had partial responses (2+ -12+ months[m]), 3 pts had minimal responses and 8 pts had stable disease (SD) > 3 m. In study 2, 5 of 8 evaluable pts had SD > 3 m (4 ongoing) and 3 are too early to evaluate. Correlative studies in tumor biopsies show marked inhibition of phospho (p)-met, p-RON, p- ERK, p-AKT and increased apoptosis at less than the MTD. Patients in study 2 pts showed lower XL880 Cmax values with consistent mean concentrations (Css)compared with study 1 MTD pts. Css levels are reached in 15 d. Conclusions: XL880 as daily oral or 5 day on / 9 day off administration is generally well tolerated for > 1 year, although hypertension is nearly universal but manageable. XL880 has demonstrated substantial phase I antitumor activity with both dosing regimens. Correlative studies indicate significant activity against Met and Ron signaling. Enrollment continues on study 2. Phase II trials in gastric cancer and head and neck cancer will begin soon. No significant financial relationships to disclose.

5066 Background: Enzalutamide (ENZA) is a novel androgen receptor (AR) inhibitor that prolongs survival in men with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) who had received prior docetaxel (DOC). DOC also prolongs survival in mCRPC and also appears to have anti-tumor effects mediated through the androgen-receptor axis, providing a compelling rationale for combining the two agents. CYP3A4 plays a role in DOC clearance and is induced by ENZA. We therefore conducted a phase I study to explore the PK and safety profiles of this combination. Methods: This study (NCT01565928) evaluated the safety and pharmacokinetics (PK) of DOC co-administered with ENZA in men with mCRPC on androgen deprivation therapy. Pts received DOC (75 mg/m2) by 1-h infusion every 3 weeks with corticosteroids. ENZA (160 mg/d) was started 24 h after the first DOC infusion. Plasma PK samples were collected for 24 h after Cycle (C) 1 and C2 DOC infusions to enable within-subject comparisons of DOC PK ± ENZA. A sample size of 18 pts able to receive ≥ 2 full doses of DOC was specified for PK analyses. Results: Twenty-two pts were enrolled, 4 did not receive 2 full doses of DOC. As of 21 Sept 2012, preliminary PK and C1 and C2 safety data were available from 15 pts. The median age was 65 (range 46-80 yrs); 11 had ECOG performance status 1 (vs 0). Prior primary therapy included surgery (n=2), radiation (n=4) or both (n=5); median PSA was 44.7ng/mL (1.9-585). ANC<1000/mm3 was reported in 14 pts (1 febrile neutropenia), other adverse events in ≥4 pts included fatigue (11), dyspnea (6), alopecia (5), peripheral neuropathy (5), anemia (4) and dysgueusia (4). No seizures were reported. Preliminary PK data (n=15) show similar DOC exposure (within 20%) for DOC in combination with ENZA vs. DOC alone.Final PK and updated tolerability and efficacy data beyond Cycle 2 will be presented. Conclusions: In mCRPC pts, ENZA does not appear to affect tolerability of DOC or have a clinically meaningful impact on DOC PK. Clinical trial information: NCT01565928.

13085 Background: Retinoids have been used to treat a wide variety of malignancies. Bexarotene is a synthetic retinoid that binds preferentially to the RXR subclass of retinoid receptors. In the initial phase I trial of bexarotene, a subset of patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) had prolonged stabilization of disease and survival. In vitro evidence suggests that the effects of retinoids may be enhanced when used in conjunction with taxanes. This is a phase I trial designed to determine the maximum tolerated dose of docetaxel in combination with a fixed dose of bexarotene. Methods: Patients with pathologically confirmed solid tumors for whom no standard therapies exist, who have an ECOG performance status ≤2, adequate organ function and normal serum triglycerides were eligible. Each cycle was 4 weeks long. Oral bexarotene was given at 400 mg/m2 daily. Docetaxel was given weekly for 3 out of 4 weeks at two dose levels, 25 or 30 mg/m2, for up to 6 cycles. For patients exhibiting disease stabilization or response, treatment with bexarotene was continued until disease progression. Restaging studies were performed after every 2 cycles. Results: To date 10 patients have been enrolled, half of whom had NSCLC - 7 male, mean age = 61 (range 37–73), 100% PS = 0 or 1. 29 cycles were completed (range 1 to 8). 7 patients have been treated at 25 mg/m2 and 3 at 30 mg/m2 of docetaxel. Hypothyroidism, hypertriglyceridemia, and fatigue were common but generally mild. Two patients experienced grade III fatigue, and 1 each experienced grade III hypertriglyceridemia, neutropenia, and cough. There were no grade IV toxicities. Two patients were taken off study because of non-fatal radiation recall pneumonitis that was controlled with steroids. In this heavily pretreated population, of 8 patients assessable for response, 5 had stable disease for at least 2 cycles. One patient with NSCLC had a partial response that persisted for 6 cycles. Conclusions: Bexarotene and docetaxel (at a minimum of 25 mg/m2) can be safely coadministered. Care should be taken in patients who have been previously irradiated. Enrolment and dose escalation for the phase I trial is still ongoing. A phase II trial of the combination as second line therapy in NSCLC is planned. [Table: see text]

3552 Background: Delta-like 3 (DLL3) is highly and specifically expressed in solid tumors, such as neuroendocrine carcinomas (NECs), malignant melanoma (MM), and medullary thyroid carcinoma (MTC). Rovalpituzumab tesirine (Rova-T) is a DLL3-targeting antibody-drug conjugate. Methods: This Phase 1/2 study (NCT02709889) enrolled patients with relapsed/refractory DLL3+ (>1% by IHC) advanced solid tumors and ECOG performance status of 0-1. Rova-T was given IV at 0.2, 0.3, or 0.4 mg/kg on d 1 of each 6-wk cycle (q6wk) for dose escalation (3+3 design) in disease-specific cohorts in Phase I. The recommended Phase 2 dose (RP2D) was tested in Phase II. Safety and dose-limiting toxicities (DLTs) were primary endpoints; efficacy outcomes were secondary endpoints. Results: The study enrolled 200 patients; 101 had NECs (large cell NEC [n=13], neuroendocrine prostate cancer [n=21], high-grade gastroenteropancreatic NEC [n=36], other [n=31]) and 99 had other solid tumors (MM [n=20], MTC [n=13], glioblastoma [GBM; n=23], other [n=43]). The median age was 61 y (range, 28-84); 63% were male. The RP2D was 0.3 mg/kg q6wk for 2 cycles in all cohorts. There were 7 DLTs in 5 patients: 2 with 0.2 mg/kg (Grade [Gr] 3 photosensitivity reaction, Gr 3 dyspnea), 2 with 0.3 mg/kg (1 with Gr 2 effusion, Gr 3 tumor lysis syndrome, and Gr 3 rhabdomyolysis; 1 with Gr 4 kidney injury), and 1 with 0.4 mg/kg (Gr 4 thrombocytopenia). Despite only 1 DLT identified with 0.4 mg/kg, the totality of the safety data suggested that this dose is not well tolerated. Common adverse events (AEs) in patients given 0.3 mg/kg (n=145) are shown (Table). Serious AEs occurred in 77/145 patients (53%), most commonly (≥3%) malignant neoplasm progression (n=18; 12%), pleural effusion (n=7; 5%), pericardial effusion (n=6; 4%), and dyspnea (n=5; 3%). The objective response rate (ORR) was 11% (21/200): 14 had NEC, 2 had MM, 2 had MTC, 2 had small cell carcinoma (SCC) not of lung origin (all partial responses), and 1 had GBM (complete response). In patients with NECs given 0.3 mg/kg, ORR, clinical benefit rate, and progression-free survival trended in favor of those with high DLL3-expressing tumors (≥50% by IHC) which represented 51% of NECs. Conclusions: Rova-T was tolerable in patients with advanced solid tumors at 0.3 mg/kg q6wk for 2 cycles. Antitumor activity was observed in patients with NEC, MM, MTC, SCC, and GBM. Clinical trial information: NCT02709889 . [Table: see text]

3570 Background: Lenalidomide is a potent anti-angiogenic and immune modulating agent. This phase I trial of docetaxel and lenalidomide was undertaken to evaluate the maximal tolerated dose (MTD), dose-limiting toxicity (DLT), and secondarily, any tumor response for this novel combination. Methods: Patients with advanced solid tumors with adequate organ function were eligible. Lenalidomide was given orally days 1–14, and docetaxel was administered intravenously on day 1 of each 21-day cycle. DLT was defined as grade 3 or higher non-hematologic toxicity, grade 4 neutropenia with fever, and grade 4 anemia or thrombocytopenia. Results: Nineteen patients, 14 male and 5 female, with tumor types including prostate (7), sarcoma (3), head and neck (2), pancreatic, colon, melanoma, adenocarcinoma of unknown primary, gastric, bladder, and GIST have been enrolled. ECOG performance status was zero (10 patients) or one (9 patients). The median age was 59 years (range 35 to 86). Fourteen patients had zero or one prior treatment regimens (range 0 to 6). A total of 64 cycles have been administered (range 1 to 12). In the first nine evaluable patients, eight (89%) had grade 3 or 4 neutropenia. Docetaxel 75 mg/m2 given every 3 weeks with lenalidomide 5 mg on days 1–14 exceeded the MTD due to one grade 3 nausea/vomiting and one grade 4 neutropenia with fever. After the addition of pegfilgrastim on day 2, there has not been any neutropenia in the subsequent seven evaluable patients. Other grade 3 and 4 toxicities included leukopenia (31%), lymphopenia (19%), as well as nausea, vomiting, fatigue, anemia, infection, hyponatremia, and hypokalemia (6% each). Seven patients (44%) have had stable disease (range 3 to 12 cycles). One prostate cancer patient experienced a >95% reduction of PSA. Enrollment is ongoing and the current dose level is docetaxel 75 mg/m2, lenalidomide 10 mg days 1–14, and pegfilgrastim on day 2. Conclusions: The toxicity evaluation is ongoing. This trial will provide the MTD of docetaxel 75 mg/m2 given every 3 weeks with lenalidomide on days 1–14 in combination with pegfilgrastim support to avoid neutropenia. No significant financial relationships to disclose.

2576 Background: Many patients treated with anti-PD-1 therapy do not show a clinical response. Preclinical studies suggest that adding hypofractionated radiotherapy (HFRT) to anti-PD1 can increase the efficacy of immunotherapy through several mechanisms including increased antigen presentation. We conducted a prospective trial testing the combination of pembrolizumab and HFRT in patients with metastatic solid tumors. Methods: This prospective single-institution phase I trial tested pembrolizumab in combination with HFRT in patients with metastatic cancers (NSCLC, melanoma, pancreas, breast, others) and an ECOG performance status of 0-1. Melanoma and NSCLC patients were required to have progression of disease on anti-PD1, having received ≥ 2 doses of anti-PD1 and progression documented by RECIST v1.1. Patients were required to have an index lesion ≥1 cm that was amenable to HFRT and at least one other lesion that was not irradiated and could be followed for response using RECIST criteria. Pembrolizumab 200 mg IV every 3 weeks was administered beginning 1 week prior to the first fraction of radiation. The HFRT dose was 8 Gy x 3 fractions or 17 Gy x 1 fraction, determined by randomization during the Expansion phase. The primary objective was the safety of HFRT combined with pembrolizumab, with dose-limiting toxicity (DLT) defined as Grade ≥ 3 non-hematological toxicity related to the combination of Pembrolizumab and HFRT. The secondary objective was the radiographic response of metastatic lesions outside the radiation field as measured by RECIST. Results: 59 patients aged 27-90 years (median 60) were enrolled from March 2015 to December 2018 (24 in the Safety Phase and 35 in Expansion Phase). 40 patients (67.7%) had treatment-related AEs, of which 4 were grade 3 and none were grade 4. One patient experienced hepatitis, classified as DLT. While most patients did not have a radiologic response, in patients with metastatic melanoma, 7 of 16 (43.8%, exact 95% CI 19.8-70.1%) had an objective response to HFRT + pembrolizumab, including 3 complete and 4 partial responses. Responses are durable with 3/3 complete responders alive with no progression, and 3/4 partial responders alive with 2 having no evidence of progression. Among melanoma patients, only 2 of 7 (29%) responders received ipilimumab prior to enrollment, compared to 8 of 9 (89%) non-responders (p = 0.035). An increase in Ki67+ PD-1+ non-naïve CD8 T-cells was observed in the blood 2 weeks after HFRT, but the magnitude did not correlate with likelihood of response. Responses were observed after either 17 Gy x 1 fraction or 8 Gy x 3 fractions, with no difference in response rate by fractionation. Conclusions: This study suggests that HFRT administered with concurrent pembrolizumab is associated with acceptable toxicity and that in patients with metastatic melanoma progressing on anti-PD-1 therapy, this approach yields an ORR of 44%. Clinical trial information: NCT02303990.

Background/Objective: With the increasing interest in natural products, a phase I openlabel study of OMN54 (Aneustat™) in patients with advanced malignancies was initiated to determine toxicity, maximum tolerated dose (MTD), dose limiting toxicities (DLT), and pharmacokinetics (PK). OMN54 is a multitargeted agent, combining three Chinese botanicals; Ganoderma lucidium, Salvia miltiorrhiza and Scutellaria barbata. Methods: Eligible patients (pts) were >18 years of age with advanced solid tumors, able to swallow oral capsules, ECOG performance status < 2, measurable disease as defined by RECIST 1.1 and adequate organ function. Results: Twenty-two patients were enrolled in 6 dose levels, 2 with daily dosing and 4 with twicedaily dosing ranging from 1 to 5 grams daily. All were evaluated for toxicity and 20 for response. No treatment-related dose-limiting toxicities (DLTs) were reported and the recommended phase II dose (RP2D) was determined to be 2.5 g twice daily. Seven adverse events in 5 patients were reported as possibly drug-related; 6 were GI toxicity and 1 was a skin disorder. All were grade 1 except one grade 2 vomiting. No RECIST responses were seen. Six pts were treated with > 2 cycles; one for 8 cycles. Four patients had reductions in TGF –β and EGF, exploratory biomarkers possibly suggestive of a drug effect. Plasma half-lives of 1 -2 hours were noted for all parent drug chemical markers with no accumulation over time. Conclusion: OMN54 was well tolerated, with no DLTs observed. Further studies at the RP2D will assess the biological activity.

Preliminary results of a phase II study of alrizomadlin (APG-115), a novel, small-molecule MDM2 inhibitor, in combination with pembrolizumab in patients (pts) with unresectable or metastatic melanoma or advanced solid tumors that have failed immuno-oncologic (I-O) drugs.

2506 Background: Alrizomadlin (APG-115) restores TP53 function, activating p53-mediated apoptosis in tumor cells with wild-type TP53 and/or MDM2 amplification. Alrizomadlin also functions as a host immunomodulator and hence may restore antitumor activity in pts with cancers failing PD-1/PD-L1 blockade. Methods: This US multicenter trial assessed alrizomadlin combined with pembrolizumab in pts with unresectable/metastatic melanoma or advanced solid tumors that had failed I-O drugs; or pts with malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumor (MPNST), liposarcoma, or ATM mutant solid tumors that had failed any standard therapy. Eligible pts had ECOG performance status of 0-2 and no CNS metastases. The phase II study cohorts included pts with melanoma, NSCLC, solid tumor with ATM mutation, well-differentiated/dedifferentiated liposarcoma, urothelial carcinoma, and MPNST. Alrizomadlin was administered orally at 150 mg once every other day for 2 consecutive weeks with 1 week off and pembrolizumab at 200 mg via IV infusion for 30 minutes on Day 1 of a 21-day cycle. Results: As of December 25, 2020, 84 pts had been treated in 6 cohorts: melanoma (n = 26), NSCLC (n = 23), ATM mutation (n = 9), liposarcoma (n = 14), urothelial (n = 9), and MPNST (n = 3). In the PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitor-failed melanoma cohort, there was 1 confirmed partial response (PR) out of 5 pts with uveal melanoma, 2 PR (1 confirmed and 1 unconfirmed) of 5 pts with mucosal melanoma, and 1 confirmed PR of 11 pts with cutaneous melanoma. ORR in the melanoma cohort was 17.4% (4/23 evaluable pts), and the disease control rate was 60.9% (14/23). In the MPNST cohort, 1 of 3 pts had an unconfirmed ongoing PR. In I-O drug-failed NSCLC (n = 14 evaluable) and urothelial (n = 5 evaluable) cohorts, each reported 1 confirmed PR. Common treatment (alrizomadlin or pembrolizumab)-related adverse events (TRAEs) (≥ 10%) were nausea (63.1%), thrombocytopenia (36.9%), vomiting (33.3%), fatigue (31.0%), decreased appetite (27.4%), diarrhea (21.4%), neutropenia (15.4%), and anemia (11.9%). Grade ≥ 3 TRAEs (≥ 5%) included thrombocytopenia (20.2%), neutropenia (14.2%), and anemia (8.3%). Eleven pts discontinued treatment due to AEs: 5 were treatment related, including 2 grade 4 thrombocytopenia, and 1 each of grade 2 vomiting, grade 2 fatigue, and grade 2 posterior reversible encephalopathy syndrome (PRES). Three treatment-related SAEs were PRES, pyrexia, and asthenia. Conclusions: Alrizomadlin combined with pembrolizumab is well tolerated and may restore antitumor effects in pts with cancer resistant to or intolerant of I-O drugs, as suggested by preliminary antitumor activities in multiple tumor types.

10020 Background: Low-dose metronomic topotecan (mTP) represents a novel approach to chemotherapy delivery which, in preclinical models, may work synergistically with pazopanib (PZ) in targeting angiogenesis. This study was designed to determine the recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D) of mTP/PZ in pediatric patients with solid tumors, while describing the safety and toxicity of this regimen. Methods: A phase I dose-escalation, pharmacokinetic (PK) and pharmacodynamic (PD) study of mTP/PZ was conducted at ten sites across Canada, enrolling pediatric patients aged 2-21 years with relapsed/refractory solid tumors. Patients were treated with oral mTP and PZ suspension daily without interruption in 28-day cycles, with dose escalation in accordance with the rolling-six design. Five dose levels (0.12/125, 0.16/125, 0.22/125, 0.22/160, and 0.3/160 mg/m2/day of mTP/PZ) were evaluated. PK studies were performed on day 1 and at steady state, and PD studies included circulating angiogenic factors VEGFR1, VEGFR2, VEGF, endoglin and placental growth factor. Results: Thirty patients (pts) were enrolled, of whom 26 were evaluable for dose-limiting toxicity (DLT), with median age 12 years (3-20). The most common diagnoses included osteosarcoma (8), neuroblastoma (NB, 7), Ewing sarcoma/PNET (4), and rhabdomyosarcoma (4). The most common grade 3/4 adverse events (AEs) related to protocol therapy were neutropenia (18%), thrombocytopenia (11%), lymphocytopenia (11%), AST elevation (11%), and lipase elevation (11%). Only 2 cycle-1 DLTs were observed on study, both at the 0.3/160 mg/m2 mTP/PZ dose level (2/5 pts) comprising persistent grade 3 thrombocytopenia and grade 3 ALT elevation. No AEs experienced beyond cycle-1 required treatment discontinuation. Best response was stable disease in 10/25 pts (40%) for a median duration of 6.4 months (1.7-45.1). One patient with refractory NB achieved stable disease for 45 months and continued on mTP/PZ via compassionate access after study closure. PK and PD results are pending at this time. Conclusions: The combination of oral mTP and PZ is safe and tolerable in pediatric patients with solid tumors, with a RP2D of mTP 0.22 mg/m2/day and PZ suspension 160 mg/m2/day. Ten patients achieved stable disease for a median of 6 months. The lack of objective responses suggests that this combination is likely of limited benefit for relapsed disease, but may play a role as maintenance therapy. Clinical trial information: NCT02303028.

Purpose Gemcitabine plus nanoparticle albumin-bound (NAB) paclitaxel (GA) significantly improved survival compared with gemcitabine alone in patients with metastatic pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) and a Karnofsky performance status (PS) of 70% or greater. Because of the low number of patients with reduced PS, the efficacy of this regimen in fragile patients remains unclear. This study aimed to evaluate the efficacy and tolerability of different GA dosing regimens in patients with a poor PS. Patients and Methods In the phase I part of this study, patients were randomly assigned to one of the following four parallel GA treatment arms (six patients per arm): a biweekly schedule of NAB-paclitaxel (150 mg/m2 [arm A] or 125 mg/m2 [arm C]) plus gemcitabine 1,000 mg/m2 or a standard schedule of 3 weeks on and 1 week off of NAB-paclitaxel (100 mg/m2 [arm B] or 125 mg/m2 [arm D]) plus gemcitabine 1,000 mg/m2. The two regimens with the better tolerability profile on the basis of predefined criteria were evaluated in the phase II part of the study, the primary end point of which was 6-month actuarial survival. Results Arms B and D were selected for the phase II part of the study. A total of 221 patients (111 patients in arm B and 110 patients in arm D) were enrolled. Baseline characteristics including median age (71 and 68 years in arms B and D, respectively), sex (51% and 55% men in arms B and D, respectively), and metastatic disease (88% and 84% in arms B and D, respectively) were comparable between arms. The most frequent grade 3 or 4 toxicities in arms B and D were anemia (12% and 7%, respectively), neutropenia (32% and 30%, respectively), thrombocytopenia (7% and 11%, respectively), asthenia (14% and 16%, respectively), and neurotoxicity (11% and 16%, respectively). In arms B and D, there were no significant differences in response rate (24% and 28%, respectively), median progression-free survival (5.7 and 6.7 months, respectively), and 6-month overall survival (63% and 69%, respectively). Conclusion NAB-paclitaxel administered at either 100 and 125 mg/m2 in combination with gemcitabine on days 1, 8, and 15 every 28 days is well tolerated and results in acceptable safety and efficacy in patients with metastatic pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma and a poor PS.
