TPS4160 Background: While sorafenib is established as the standard first-line treatment for patients with advanced HCC, its use can be complicated by the occurrence of drug-related adverse events (AEs). Nintedanib, a potent, oral triple angiokinase inhibitor that targets VEGF, PDGF and FGF signaling (as well as Flt3 and RET), has demonstrated clinical activity in various advanced solid tumors with a relatively low incidence of AEs typically associated with angiogenesis inhibitors (e.g. skin toxicity, hypertension, hemorrhage, and hematologic toxicity) and is currently in phase III for non-small cell lung cancer and ovarian cancer. In the Phase I, dose-finding stage of this ongoing, multicenter, open-label Phase I/II trial (NCT01004003), 200mg twice daily (bid) was established as the maximum tolerated dose of nintedanib in previously untreated patients with advanced HCC (Palmer D, et al. Ann Oncol 2012;23(Suppl 9):ix245[Abs 740P]). Nintedanib had an acceptable liver AE profile; the most common AEs were mild/moderate gastrointestinal toxicities. Methods: The randomized Phase II stage of the trial aims to assess the efficacy, safety, and pharmacokinetics of nintedanib in comparison with sorafenib. Eligible patients have pathologically confirmed, measurable HCC that is not amenable to local therapy, ECOG Performance Status of ≤2, Child-Pugh score of 5–6 (Class A), AST/ALT levels ≤2× upper limit of normal, and no prior systemic therapy. Patients are being stratified by macrovascular invasion and/or extrahepatic spread and then randomized 2:1 to receive nintedanib 200mg bid or sorafenib 400mg bid in continuous 28-day cycles until progression or unacceptable toxicity. Overall, 93 patients were randomized between Sept 2011 and Nov 2012. The primary endpoint is time to progression (TTP) by independent review, according to RECIST 1.0. TTP will be estimated in the treated set by Kaplan–Meier methodology with treatment effects compared using a Cox proportional hazards model. Secondary endpoints include overall survival, tumor response, progression-free survival, safety and pharmacokinetics. Results are due late 2013. Clinical trial information: NCT01004003.

294 Background: Golvatinib (G) is highly potent, small molecule ATP-competitive inhibitor of the c-Met receptor tyrosine kinase and multiple members of the Eph receptor family as well as c-Kit and Ron, based on isolated kinase assays. G plus sorafenib (S) had an additive cell killing effect in a HepG2 hepatocellular cell viability assay, thus warranting further evaluation of the combination in HCC. Methods: The study is an ongoing open-label phase I/II study. Eligible pts have advanced HCC, Child-Pugh (CP) A or B, up to 2 prior regimens, including S. A 3+3 dose escalation design was used to determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) with planned doses of G (200 mg, 300 mg, 400 mg) PO qd each in combination with S 400 mg bid in 28 day cycles.The dose limiting toxicity (DLT) evaluation period was the first 28 days. Treatment continued until disease progression or development of unmanageable toxicities. Response was assessed by RECIST 1.1. Phase I is complete and preliminary data are presented. Results: 13 pts (med age: 60; M/F: 83%/17%, CP A/B: 92%/8%) were enrolled in 2 cohorts and the MTD was declared as G 200 mg qd and S 400 mg bid. Median treatment duration, 112 days. Confirmed partial responses (PRs) were observed in 2/12 (17%) pts and durable SD was observed in 4/13 (31%) pts based on investigator assessment. Conclusions: G in combination with S appeared to demonstrate manageable toxicity in advanced HCC pts. The PRs and durable SD observed in this pretreated pt population appear favourable and support continued evaluation in phase II. Clinical trial information: NCT01271504. [Table: see text]

4076 Background: C+A combination therapy displayed high objective response rate, disease control rate, and durable response with a manageable safety profile in patients (pts) with advanced HCC. Here we performed an updated analysis of OS to characterize the OS benefit of C+A in HCC pts. Methods: 70 pts in first-line cohort and 120 pts in second-line cohort were enrolled. Median OS and 2-year OS rate were evaluated via updated data (data cutoff, 3 January, 2021). Median time from enrollment to data cutoff of the total population (N = 190) was 29.1 months (range, 24.0-33.7). Results: OS events had occurred in 58.6% pts in first-line cohort and 60.0% pts in second-line cohort. The median OS was 20.1 months (95% CI, 14.9-NR) and 2-year OS rate was 43.3% (95% CI, 31.3-54.7) in first-line cohort. The median OS was 21.8 months (95% CI, 17.3-26.8) and 2-year OS rate was 44.6% (95% CI, 35.5-53.3) in second-line cohort. Conclusions: Long-term follow-up of C+A demonstrated remarkable survival benefit in advanced HCC pts, which further suggested that C+A is a promising combination therapy in advanced HCC pts. Clinical trial information: NCT03463876.

312 Background: Silmitasertib (CX-4945), an oral small molecule inhibitor of casein kinase 2 (CK2), has exhibited preclinical antitumor activity and strong synergism with gemcitabine + cisplatin. We investigated the safety and efficacy of silmitasertib in combination with gemcitabine + cisplatin in patients with unresectable cholangiocarcinoma (CCA). Methods: S4-13-001 is a multicenter, open-label, phase Ib/II study of silmitasertib in combination with gemcitabine + cisplatin in patients with locally advanced or metastatic CCA. The phase Ib portion included dose-escalation, expansion, and exploratory cohorts of silmitasertib with doses ranging from 200 to 1000 mg bid (6 days for the escalation/expansion cohorts and 10 and 21 days’ continuous dosing for the exploratory cohorts). In the phase II portion patients received silmitasertib 1000 mg bid for 10 days in combination with gemcitabine + cisplatin on days 1 & 8 over a 21-day cycle. In this interim analysis, we present findings from the combined population of patients from the phase Ib and II portions of the study. Response to treatment was assessed by RECIST v1.1 every 6 weeks. Primary efficacy outcome measure was progression-free survival (PFS). ClinicalTrials.gov (NCT02128282). Results: A total of 87 patients were enrolled and received silmitasertib in the phase Ib (n=50) and phase II (n=37) portions of the study. Of these, 55 patients were evaluable for efficacy with details as follows: median PFS 11.1 (95% CI 7.6–14.7) months; median overall survival (OS) 17.4 (95% CI 13.4–25.7) months; overall response rate (ORR) 32.1%; and disease control rate (DCR) 79.3%. Almost all patients (79/87; 90.8%) evaluable for safety reported ≥1 treatment-related adverse event (TEAE). The most common TEAEs (all grades) with silmitasertib were diarrhea (65.5%), nausea (50.6%), vomiting (33.3%), fatigue (31.0%), and anemia (21.8%). The most common grade ≥3 TEAEs were diarrhea (13.8%), neutropenia (11.5%), nausea (9.2%), anemia (8.0%), and thrombocytopenia (8.0%). Eleven patients (12.6%) discontinued treatment due to TEAEs. Conclusions: Silmitasertib in combination with gemcitabine + cisplatin yields promising preliminary evidence of efficacy in patients with locally advanced or metastatic CCA. Based on these data a randomized phase III trial is planned. Clinical trial information: NCT02128282.

Abstract Background: Despite recent improvements in therapy, follicular lymphoma (FL) remains incurable with standard treatment, warranting investigation of new approaches. Bortezomib, the first-in-class proteasome inhibitor has demonstrated promising efficacy as a single agent in heavily pretreated patients (pts) with FL. This is the first study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of the addition of bortezomib to cyclophosphamide, vincristine, prednisone and rituximab (CVP-R). Methods: This is a phase II multi-center open-label trial adding bortezomib (1.3 mg/m2 day 1&8) to standard dose C(750 mg/m2) V(1.4 mg/m2, capped at 2 mg) P(40 mg/m2 × 5) –R(375 mg/m2) for up to 8 cycles in pts with newly diagnosed stage III/IV FL requiring therapy. Planned accrual is 90 patients. A two-stage design was employed with a planned interim analysis of the first 28 patients to ensure an acceptable level of neurotoxicity (defined as less than 5/28 patients with grade 3/4 neurotoxicity after the first 4 cycles) and meaningful response rate (more than 12/28 patients with a complete response following 8 cycles), prior to enrolling remaining patients. Results: Median age of the first 28 patients was 55 years (range, 30–73). Fifty percent were male and 79% had stage IV disease. FLIPI score at study entry: low 14%, intermediate 43%, high 43%. Overall, the combination of bortezomib and CVP-R was extremely well tolerated. To date, no pts have developed grade 4 neurotoxicity and only 1/28 (4%) has developed grade 3 neurotoxicity within the first 4 cycles (neuropathic pain which resolved without need for treatment modification). The incidence of grade 1 and 2 neurotoxicity was 54% and 25% respectively. Only 3 pts discontinued therapy prematurely (2 pt refusal, 1 progressive disease). Ninety-four percent of planned bortezomib treatments in the first four cycles and 93% of vincristine doses were administered without dose reduction. Hematologic toxicity was mild, with no pts experiencing grade 3/4 anemia or thrombocytopenia. Only 2 episodes of febrile neutropenia occurred and no grade 3/4 infections were noted. Although it is too early to report on efficacy in this ongoing trial, response objectives for stage I have been met, and enrollment to stage 2 is underway. Conclusions: The addition of bortezomib to standard dose CVP-R is very well tolerated, with an acceptable level of neurotoxicity, without compromising the delivery of bortezomib or vincristine. This ongoing study will provide toxicity and efficacy data to facilitate the development of a planned phase III trial.

e18046 Background: Platinum and non-platinum doublet chemotherapy has similar efficacy in advanced NSCLC patients (pts). Bevacizumab (B) improves outcomes when added to platinum doublets, but its safety and efficacy in combination with non-platinum doublets is unknown. This study was designed to test the combination of B, docetaxel (D), and gemcitabine (G) in first-line treatment of advanced NSCLC. Methods: Pts with metastatic, non-squamous NSCLC, PS 0-1, and measurable disease by RECIST were enrolled in this open-label, single arm phase II trial. Pts received D (75 mg/m2) on d1, G (900 mg/m2) on d1 & 8, and B (15 mg/kg) on d1 every 21d for up to 6 cycles, followed by B maintenance until progression or 12 mos total. Pts received growth factor d9. CT scans were performed every 6 wks. The primary endpoint was 1-yr progression-free survival (PFS), with secondary endpoints of safety, objective response rate (ORR), overall PFS, and overall survival (OS). Pts with tumor cavitation, untreated brain metastases, and hemoptysis were excluded. Planned enrollment was 46. Results: 13 pts were enrolled from 12/2009 to 4/2011. Pt characteristics: Median age 63 (35-69), 85% male, PS 0 (38%), PS 1 (62%). The median # of cycles of chemotherapy was 6 (1-6), median # cycles of B was 4 (1-15), with 2 pts coming off study prior to the first evaluation (1 grade 5 encephalopathy, 1 grade 4 febrile neutropenia). 5 pts (38%) had chemo dose reduction and 4 (31%) discontinued treatment for toxicity. 3 pts (23%) discontinued B prior to progression, 2 for tumor cavitation and 1 for grade 1 hemoptysis. The grade 3-5 non-hematologic toxicity rate was 69%, with 6 pts (46%) hospitalized with pneumonitis/pneumonia felt possibly related to study drugs. At this point enrollment was halted for safety concerns. The 1-yr PFS was 8%, and the median PFS was 6.9 mos (95% CI 2.0-NYR). 11 pts were evaluable for response, and 6 pts had partial responses for an ORR of 55%. The median OS was NYR with median follow up of 10.9 mos. Conclusions: The combination of B, D, and G was not tolerable at the doses and schedule used in this study. A formal phase I trial is needed if this combination is to be investigated further.

4503 Background: Pembrolizumab (P), a PD-1 inhibitor, is active and well tolerated in platinum-treated, advanced urothelial carcinoma (UC). Epacadostat (E) potently and selectively inhibits indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase 1 (IDO1), a tryptophan-catabolizing enzyme that suppresses T-cell–mediated immune surveillance. IDO1 overexpression is associated with tumor progression and shortened patient (pt) survival. ECHO-202/KEYNOTE-037 is an open-label, phase I/II study of E + P in pts with advanced tumors. We report phase I/II efficacy and safety outcomes for the UC cohort at an October 29, 2016 data cutoff. Methods: Adult pts with advanced UC, prior platinum therapy (adjuvant or advanced disease setting) or alternative therapy (if platinum was not appropriate), and no prior checkpoint inhibitor therapy were eligible to participate. In phase I, pts received E (25, 50, 100, or 300 mg PO BID) + P (2 mg/kg or 200 mg IV Q3W); MTD was not exceeded. E (100 mg BID) + P (200 mg Q3W) dosing was selected for phase II. Response was assessed in RECIST 1.1–evaluable pts. Safety was assessed in pts receiving ≥1 E + P dose. Results: A total of 40 pts (phase I, n = 5; phase II, n = 35) were evaluated. Median age was 67 years, 75% were men, 88% were white, 100% had prior platinum therapy, and 75% had 0–1 prior line of therapy for advanced disease. Preliminary ORR (CR+PR) and DCR (CR+PR+SD) for all efficacy-evaluable pts were 35% (13/37; all PR) and 57% (21/37; 13 PR, 8 SD), respectively; for pts with 0–1 prior line of therapy for advanced disease, ORR and DCR were 37% (10/27) and 63% (17/27). At data cutoff, 12/13 responses were ongoing (range, 1+ to 652+ days). PFS and biomarker analyses are ongoing. The most common TRAEs (≥10% of 40 pts) were fatigue (28%), rash (18%), and increased amylase (10%; asymptomatic). Grade ≥3 TRAEs occurred in 20% of pts (rash was the only grade ≥3 TRAE to occur in > 1 pt [n = 3]). Three pts discontinued due to TRAEs (grade 3 rash [n = 1]; grade 3 COPD exacerbation [n = 1], grade 2 diarrhea [n = 1]). Conclusions: E + P was generally well tolerated and associated with increased response compared with previously reported PD-1 inhibitor monotherapy in pts with advanced UC. A phase III UC study is planned. Clinical trial information: NCT02178722.

Purpose To determine the dose of cetuximab that can be safely combined with irinotecan for treatment of pediatric and adolescent patients with refractory solid tumors. Patients and Methods This open-label, phase I study enrolled patients ages 1 to 18 years with advanced refractory solid tumors, including tumors of the CNS. Patient cohorts by age group (children, ages 1 to 12 years; adolescents, ages 13 to 18 years) received escalating weekly doses of cetuximab (75, 150, 250 mg/m2) in a 3 + 3 design, plus irinotecan (16 or 20 mg/m2/d) for 5 days for 2 consecutive weeks every 21 days. The primary end points were establishing the maximum-tolerated dose (MTD), recommended phase II dose (RPIID), and pharmacokinetics of the combination. Preliminary safety and efficacy data were also collected. Results Twenty-seven children and 19 adolescents received a median of 7.1 and 6.0 weeks of cetuximab therapy, respectively. Cetuximab 250 mg/m2 weekly plus irinotecan 16 mg/m2/d (pediatric) or 20 mg/m2/d (adolescent) have been established as the MTD/RPIID. Dose-limiting toxicities included diarrhea and neutropenia. Mild to moderate (grade 1 to 2) acneiform rash occurred in a majority of patients; no grade 3 to 4 rashes were observed. Cetuximab demonstrated dose-dependent clearance in both children and adolescents, similar to that in adults. There were two confirmed partial responses, both in patients with CNS tumors. Stable disease was achieved in 18 patients overall, including 10 patients with CNS tumors (38.5%). Conclusion The cetuximab/irinotecan combination can be given safely to children and adolescents with cancer. Promising activity, particularly in CNS tumors, warrants phase II evaluation of this regimen.
