613 Background: Sub-analyses of US and European randomized trials have demonstrated that primary tumor location is a critical prognostic factor in mCRC treated with 1st-line chemotherapy; moreover, left-sided tumor location may be a predictor of cetuximab efficacy in KRAS exon 2 wild-type tumors (Loupakis F, et al. J Natl Cancer Inst 2015; von Einem JC, et al. J Cancer Res Clin Oncol 2014). We therefore investigated the prognostic impact of primary tumor location on outcomes of Japanese pts enrolled in JACCRO CC-05 or CC-06 trial, which evaluated efficacy of cetuximab in combination with FOLFOX or SOX, respectively, for mCRC with KRAS exon 2 wild-type tumors. Methods: This study evaluated the association of tumor location with overall survival (OS) and progression-free survival (PFS) in mCRC pts from 2 phase II trials of 1st-line therapy; JACCRO CC-05 of cetuximab plus FOLFOX (n= 57, UMIN000004197) and CC-06 of cetuximab plus SOX (n= 67, UMIN000007022). Tumors proximal or from left flexure to rectum were defined as right-sided or left-sided, respectively. Results: In total of 124 pts of the 2 trials, 110 pts were assessable for the primary tumor location: 90 pts with left-sided tumors and 20 pts with right-sided tumors. In the population consists of 110 evaluable pts, median PFS was 9.4 months, and median OS was 33.9 months. Left-sided tumors were significantly associated with longer OS (36.2 months vs. 12.6 months, HR 0.28, 95%CI 0.15-0.53, p< 0.0001) and PFS (11.1 months vs. 5.6 months, HR 0.47, 95%CI 0.29-0.82, p= 0.0041) compared to right-sided tumors. The association was evident in the group of FOLFOX (p< 0.0001 for OS and p= 0.0002 for PFS), while there was a trend in OS of the group of SOX (p= 0.079). In the FOLFOX-group, median OS and PFS were 5.7 and 3.0 months, respectively, for right-sided tumors (n= 9) and 42.8 and 11.3 months, respectively, for left-sided tumors (n= 43). Conclusions: Our study demonstrates that primary tumor location may serve as a predictor of prognosis of mCRC pts treated with cetuximab plus oxaliplatin-based therapy, potentially confirming the prognostic impact of tumor location.

Aim: To determine the impact of KRAS mutation status on survival in patients undergoing surgery for colorectal liver metastases (CLM). Patients & methods: Patients with resected CLM and KRAS mutations. Survival was compared between mt-KRAS and wt-KRAS. Results: Of 662 patients, 174 (26.3%) were mt-KRAS and 488 (73.7%) wt-KRAS. mt-KRAS patients had significantly lower recurrence-free survival (HR: 1.42; 95% CI: 1.10–1.84). There were no differences between the groups for sidedness. Poorer survival was associated with mt-KRAS with positive lymph nodes, >1 metastases, tumors >5 cm, synchronous tumors and R1–R2. Conclusion: KRAS mutation status can help predict recurrence-free survival. Primary tumor location was not a prognostic factor after resection. KRAS mutation status can help design a multidisciplinary approach after curative resection of CLM.

Abstract Background: Whether primary tumor location of colorectal cancer (CRC) affects survival of patients after resection of liver metastases remains controversial. This study was conducted to investigate the differences in clinicopathological characteristics and prognosis between right-sided CRC and left-sided CRC patients with liver metastases after hepatectomy. Methods: From 2002 to 2018, 611 patients with colorectal liver metastases (CRLM) who underwent hepatectomy at our center were reviewed. Primary tumors located from cecum to transverse colon were defined as right-sided group (n = 141); tumors located from splenic flexure to rectum were defined as left-sided group (n = 470). Patients were compared between two groups before and after a 1:1 propensity score matching (PSM) analysis. Results: Before PSM, median survival time and 5-year overall survival (OS) rate in right-sided group were 77 months and 56.3%, and those in left-sided group were 64 months and 51.1%, respectively. After PSM, median survival time and 5-year OS rate in right-sided group were 77 months and 55.9%, and those in left-sided group were 58.8 months and 47.3%, respectively. The OS rates did not differ between two groups before and after PSM (P = 0.575; P = 0.453). However, significant different recurrence-free survival (RFS) rate was found before and after PSM between right-sided and left-sided group (P = 0.028, P = 0.003). Conclusions: Compared to patients with left-sided primary tumors, patients with right-sided primary tumors had a worse RFS but similar OS. Careful preoperative evaluation, intensive preoperative chemotherapy and frequent follow-up to detect early recurrence might be justified for CRLM patients with right-sided primary tumors.

3525 Background: FIRE3 compared 1st-line therapy with FOLFIRI plus either cetuximab (arm A) or bevacizumab (arm B) in 592 patients (pts) with KRAS exon 2 wild-type metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC). Second-line therapies appeared more successful in arm A compared to arm B. The impact of primary tumor location on this observation is unclear. Methods: Pts. were stratified for primary tumor site (left- vs. right-sided). Duration of 2nd-line therapy was calculated as time from first to last application. Progression-free survival (PFS2nd) and overall survival (OS2nd) of second-line therapy) were evaluated by Kaplan-Meier method and compared by log rank test as well as Cox regression. All analyses were performed in the RAS wild-type population of the trial and reported according to drug sequences. Results: 272 of 400 pts. (68%) received 2nd-line therapy, of those 206 (109 in arm A, 97 in arm B) pts. presented left-sided, whereas 66 (26 in arm A, 40 in arm B) pts. presented right-sided primaries. PFS2nd was markedly longer in pts. with left-sided as compared to right-sided primary tumors (6.0 (95% CI: 5.5-6.7) vs. 3.4 (95% CI: 3.0-5.8) months, hazard ratio (HR): 0.64 (95% CI: 0.47-0.87), P = 0.005). Differences in PFS2nd between study-arms were evident in pts. with left-sided primaries (arm A: 7.3 (95% CI: 6.4-7.7) vs. arm B: 5.3 (95% CI: 4.3-5.9) months, HR: 0.61 (95% CI: 0.44-0.84), P = 0.002), but not in pts. with right-sided primaries (arm A: 4.0 (95% CI: 3.0-6.3) vs. arm B: 3.3 (95% CI: 2.6-5.8) months, HR: 1.09 (95% CI: 0.62-1.90). Consistent observations were also made for treatment duration and OS2nd. Conclusions: This retrospective analysis indicates that treatment duration and efficacy of second-line therapy are associated with primary tumor location. Efficacy of second-line therapy was significantly greater in pts. with left-sided tumors as compared to right sided tumors. This difference was driven by superior activity of second-line regimens of arm A compared to arm B in left-sided tumors. Our observations confirm the strong prognostic value of primary tumor location in mCRC across treatment lines. Clinical trial information: NCT00433927.

741 Background: Recently it has been suggested that primary tumor location may have a clinical impact on the front line chemotherapies; namely, right-sided tumor benefit less from cytotoxic and targeted agents compared with left-sided tumor. Regorafenib and TAS 102 have recently emerged and the prognostic impacts of tumor location on these agents are unknown. Methods: Clinical information of patients who were administrated Regorafenib and/or TAS 102 was retrospectively collected. Patients’ demographics by tumor location were compared using Fisher’s exact test. Time to treatment failure (TTF), and overall survival (OS) by tumor location were calculated using Kaplan-Meyer Methods and compared using Log-rank test. In addition, subgroup analyses were performed to see the interactions between tumor location and covariates in each agent. All tests were performed at the two-sided .05 significance level. Results: The median TTF (mTTF) and OS (mOS) were 2.0 and 8.0 months in the regorafenib group (n = 98) and were 2.4 and 7.9 months in the TAS102 group (n = 95), respectively. In the regorafenib group, 71 patients had a left-sided tumor and 27 patients had a right-sided tumor. In the TAS102 group, 64 patients had a left-sided and 31 patients had a right-sided tumor. There was no significant difference between right and left sides in both groups with the exception that a greater number of older patients was seen in right-sided in the TAS102 group. No significant difference of TTF and OS by primary site were observed in regorafenib (HR 0.92, 95% CI 0.68-1.70, P = 0.71 for TTF, HR 1.09, 95% CI 0.68-1.81, P = 0.74 for OS) and in TAS 102 (HR 0.84, 95%CI 0.53-1.36, P = 0.48 for TTF, HR 1.26, 95% CI 0.72-2.33 P = 0.43 for OS). Significant interactions were shown between presence of liver metastasis and tumor location both in TTF and OS in regorafenib (p < 0.05). On the other hand, in TAS102, significant interactions were shown between period from 1st line chemotherapy and tumor location in TTF and between time to metastasis and tumor location in OS (p < 0.05). Conclusions: In contrast to front line chemotherapy, no clinical impact of tumor location was demonstrated at the salvage lines in mCRC.
