TPS3647 Background: Observational data indicate that physical activity (PA) is strongly associated with colon-cancer specific survival. NCIC CTG CO.21 (CHALLENGE) is designed to determine the effects of a structured PA intervention on disease-control outcomes for survivors of high-risk stage II or III colon cancer who have completed adjuvant chemotherapy within the previous 2-6 months. Methods: Phase III randomized controlled trial. Target sample size of 962 patients is powered to detect a Hazard Ratio of 0.75 for disease-free survival (DFS). Trial participants will be stratified by centre, disease stage, body mass index, and performance status, and will be randomly assigned to a structured, individualized PA intervention or to general health education materials. The PA intervention will consist of a behavioural support program and supervised PA sessions delivered over a 3-year period, beginning with regular face-to-face sessions and tapering to less frequent face-to-face or telephone sessions. The goal of the PA program is to increase weekly PA by 10 MET hours/week. The PA program is delivered by physical activity consultants trained in exercise physiology and behavior change. Outcomes: The primary endpoint is DFS. Important secondary endpoints include multiple patient-reported outcomes (including those that address fatigue), objective physical functioning, biologic correlative markers (including assessment of the insulin pathway), and an economic analysis. Current Enrollment: The study is open at 19 centers in Canada and 20 centers in Australia. Accrual as of February 4, 2013 includes 212 registered and 184 randomized patients. Summary: Cancer survivors and cancer care professionals are interested in the potential role of PA to improve multiple disease-related outcomes, but a randomized controlled trial is needed to provide compelling evidence to justify changes in health care policies and practice. Clinical trial information: NCT00819208.

Purpose Reduction of adjuvant treatment duration may decrease toxicities without loss of efficacy in stage III colon cancer. This could offer clear advantages to patients and health care providers. Methods In International Duration Evaluation of Adjuvant Chemotherapy (IDEA) France, as part of the IDEA international collaboration, patient with colon cancer patients were randomly assigned to 3 and 6 months of modified FOLFOX6 (mFOLFOX6: infusional fluorouracil, leucovorin, and oxaliplatin) or capecitabine plus oxaliplatin (CAPOX) by physician choice. The primary end point was disease-free survival (DFS), and analyses were descriptive. Results A total of 2,010 eligible patients received either 3 or 6 months of chemotherapy (modified intention-to-treat population); 2,000 (99%) had stage III colon cancer (N1: 75%, N2: 25%); 1,809 (90%) received mFOLFOX6, and 201 (10%) received CAPOX. The median age was 64 years, and the median follow-up time was 4.3 years. Overall, 94% (3 months) and 78% (6 months) of patients completed treatment (fluoropyrimidines ± oxaliplatin). Maximal grade 2 and 3 neuropathy rates were 28% and 8% in the 3-month arm and 41% and 25% in the 6-month arm ( P < .001). Final rates of residual neuropathy greater than grade 1 were 3% in the 3-month arm and 7% in the 6-month arm ( P < .001). There were 578 DFS events: 314 and 264 in the 3- and 6-month arms, respectively. The 3-year DFS rates were 72% and 76% in the 3- and 6-month arms, respectively (hazard ratio [HR], 1.24; 95% CI, 1.05 to 1.46; P = .0112). In the 3 and 6-month arms, respectively, for patients who received mFOLFOX6, the 3-year DFS rates were 72% and 76% (HR, 1.27; 95% CI, 1.07 to 1.51); for the T4 and/or N2 population, they were 58% and 66% (HR, 1.44; 95% CI, 1.14 to 1.82); and for the T1-3N1 population, they were 81% and 83% (HR, 1.15; 95% CI, 0.89 to 1.49). Conclusion IDEA France, in which 90% of patients received mFOLFOX6, shows superiority of 6 months of adjuvant chemotherapy compared with 3 months, especially in the T4 and/or N2 subgroups. These results should be considered alongside the international IDEA collaboration data.

3519 Background: Tumor deposits (TDs) are isolated tumor foci in the pericolic, perirectal or mesocolic fat without residual lymph node (LN) tissue. TDs seem to impact the prognosis of stage III colon cancer (CC) patients (pts) but are only considered in TNM staging in the absence of LN metastases (LNM). We aimed at evaluating the prognosis value for disease free survival (DFS)of TDs in International Duration Evaluation of Adjuvant Chemotherapy (IDEA) France phase III study (NCT00958737) that compared 3 versus 6 months of adjuvant FOLFOX or CAPOX for stage III CC pts. Methods: All pathological reports of pts included in IDEA France trial were retrospectively analyzed. DFS according to the presence or absence of TDs was evaluated using Kaplan-Meier estimator. Multivariable Cox model analysis was performed to evaluate the association between TDs and DFS. This analysis did not included immunohistochemical biomarkers. Results: Among the 2022 pts included in IDEA France study, 1942 (96%) were analyzed. 80 pts were excluded: no pathological report (n = 68), pts without treatment (n = 12). TDs were found in 184 pts (9.47%), of whom 74 with N1a/b (40%), 55 with N1c (30%) and 55 with N2 LN stage (30%). All characteristics were similar according to the presence of TDs, except for tumor/node (TN) stage (T4 and/or N2 are more frequent in pts with TDs; p = .0046). The 3-year DFS rates were 65.59% [95% confidence interval (95%CI) 58.04-72.12] and 74.71% [95%CI 72.57-76.71] for pts with and without TDs, respectively (p = 0.0079). In multivariable analysis, TDs were associated with higher risk of recurrence or death (hazard ratio (HR) = 1.36, 95%CI 1.05-1.75, p = .0201), as well as T4 and/or N2 (HR = 2.21, 95%CI 1.03-1.59, p < .001), 3 months of adjuvant treatment (HR = 1.29, 95%CI 1.09-1.52, p = .0029), obstruction (HR = 1.28, 95%CI 1.03-1.59, p = .0233) and male (HR = 1.24, 95%CI 1.04-1.46, p = .0151). Adding TDs count to the LNM count, 35 out of 1454 N1a/b/c CC pts (2.4%) were reclassified as N2 and experienced worse 3 years DFS than confirmed N1 CC pts (p = .0151). Conclusions: TD is an independent and valuable prognostic factor for DFSin stage III CC pts and should be considered whatever the LNM status.

Abstract Malignant B-cells in Follicular Non-Hodgkin’s Lymphoma expresses a clonal idiotype immunoglobulin which can serve as the basis for a patient-specific anti-idiotype vaccine. In a previous single-arm Phase II study by Bendandi, et al (Nature Med5:1171–1177, 1999), we evaluated the ability of tumor-specific idiotype (Id) conjugated to keyhole limpet hemocyanin (KLH) administered concurrently with granulocyte-monocyte colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF) adjuvant to induce complete remissions and molecular remissions in treated patients. The vaccine formulation induced a tumor-specific cytotoxic CD8+ and CD4+ T-cell response in patients in first complete remission after standard chemotherapy, as well as achieved molecular remissions in 8 of 11 of these patients. Data available at the time of this abstract for the 20-patient cohort, indicates a median follow-up of 9.167 years. 9 patients (45 %) remain in continuous first CR at their most recent follow-up (either in 2004 or 2005), and overall survival is 95%. The data further indicates the median disease free survival for the cohort is 96.5 months (8.04 years). To date there have been no additional reported mortalities in this cohort. As of August 2005, we report the progress of the Phase III clinical trial for this vaccine, opened in January 2000 by the NCI to evaluate the impact of this hybridoma-based Id vaccine on disease-free survival in a group of up to 375 previously untreated patients who have attained a CR or CRu from PACE [Prednisone, Doxorubicin, Cyclophosphamide, and Etoposide (ProMACE without methotrexate)] chemotherapy, and who are randomized to receive either vaccine or control. To date, 187 patients have been accrued onto the study. Of those patients, 145 (77.5%) achieved a CR or Cru and are being followed in this ongoing clinical trial.

Purpose This phase III clinical trial evaluated the impact on disease-free survival (DFS) of adding oxaliplatin to bolus weekly fluorouracil (FU) combined with leucovorin as surgical adjuvant therapy for stage II and III colon cancer. Patients and Methods Patients who had undergone a potentially curative resection were randomly assigned to either FU 500 mg/m2 intravenous (IV) bolus weekly for 6 weeks plus leucovorin 500 mg/m2 IV weekly for 6 weeks during each 8-week cycle for three cycles (FULV), or the same FULV regimen with oxaliplatin 85 mg/m2 IV administered on weeks 1, 3, and 5 of each 8-week cycle for three cycles (FLOX). Results A total of 2,407 patients (96.6%) of the 2,492 patients randomly assigned were eligible. Median follow-up for patients still alive is 42.5 months. The hazard ratio (FLOX v FULV) is 0.80 (95% CI, 0.69 to 0.93), a 20% risk reduction in favor of FLOX (P < .004). The 3- and 4-year disease-free survival (DFS) rates were 71.8% and 67.0% for FULV and 76.1% and 73.2% for FLOX, respectively. Grade 3 neurosensory toxicity was noted in 8.2% of patients receiving FLOX and in 0.7% of those receiving FULV (P < .001). Hospitalization for diarrhea associated with bowel wall thickening occurred in 5.5% of the patients receiving FLOX and in 3.0% of the patients receiving FULV (P < .01). A total of 1.2% of patients died as a result of any cause within 60 days of receiving chemotherapy, with no significant difference between regimens. Conclusion The addition of oxaliplatin to weekly FULV significantly improved DFS in patients with stage II and III colon cancer. FLOX can be recommended as an effective option in clinical practice.
