2575 Background: Large sequencing studies in MCM have shown a TP53WT incidence of approximately 80%. In preclinical TP53WT melanoma models, the oral p53-MDM2 inhibitor AMG 232 exhibited synergistic, cytotoxic-type antitumor activity when combined with MAPK inhibitors. This phase 1 study assessed the toxicity (CTCAE 4.03), maximum tolerated dose (MTD), pharmacokinetics (PK), and preliminary antitumor activity (RECIST 1.1) of AMG 232 plus trametinib (T) and dabrafenib (D) (BRAFV600-mutant) or T (BRAFV600-WT) in pts with TP53WT MCM. Methods: Using 3+3 dose escalation design, pts with advanced TP53WT (using a CLIA-approved assay) MCM received AMG 232 PO QD for seven days of each 3-week cycle (7/21) at 120, 240, or 480 mg plus either T 2 mg PO QD and D 150 mg PO BID (Arm 1; BRAFV600-mutant) or T 2 mg QD (Arm 2; BRAFnonV600-mutant). Results: At the time of this analysis, 21 pts (median age, 58 y [range 24–76]; male, n = 11; at least 2 systemic treatments, n = 15) were treated. Arm 2 enrolled first: AMG 232 120 mg (n = 6), then 240 mg (n = 6). Due to chronic grade (G) 2 gastrointestinal toxicity, an intermediate dose (180 mg; n = 3) was determined as the preliminary MTD. Arm 1 enrolled at AMG 232 120 mg (n = 4), then 180 mg (n = 2). The most common reasons for AMG 232 withdrawal were disease progression (n = 8) and AEs (n = 4); 6 pts remain on AMG 232. All 21 pts had treatment-related AEs (TRAEs); the most common TRAEs were nausea (n = 18), fatigue (n = 17), diarrhea (n = 14), and vomiting (n = 13). The only DLT (Arm 2; 240 mg) was G 3 pulmonary embolism. Preliminary PK analysis suggests that AMG 232 exposure (area under the curve) is similar to that as monotherapy at the same dose, with no apparent drug-drug interaction between AMG 232 and T; analysis of D and T PK is ongoing. Of 21 pts, 6 had partial response (Arm 1/2, n = 4 [67%]/2 [13%]), 13 had stable disease (Arm 1/2, n = 2 [33%]/11 [73%]), and 2 progressed (Arm 1/2, n = 0/2 [13%]) as best response; 17 had tumor reduction (Arm 1/2, n = 6 [100%]/11 [73%]). Conclusions: In this population of pts with MCM, AMG 232 combined with D and/or T during DE was tolerable up to 180 mg QD 7/21 days, showing an acceptable PK profile and early antitumor activity. Clinical trial information: NCT02110355.

9051 Background: DS-1062a is a trophoblast cell-surface antigen 2 (TROP2)-targeting antibody drug conjugate. TROP2 is highly expressed in epithelial cancers, including non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Overexpression of TROP2 may be associated with poor survival in some solid tumors. Preclinical studies showed promising antitumor activity of DS-1062a in mouse models with TROP2-positive tumors. Preliminary results are reported in the dose escalation part of this phase 1 study. Methods: This is an ongoing phase 1 study of DS-1062a in patients (pts) with advanced solid tumors in the US and Japan (NCT03401385). Adult (age ≥20 years in Japan or ≥18 years in US) pts with measurable disease per RECIST v1.1 and sufficient tumor tissue sample for TROP2 measurement were eligible. Pts were excluded if they had multiple primary malignancies or untreated brain metastases. Endpoints included safety, pharmacokinetics, and efficacy. Results: As of November 16, 2018, 22 pts with advanced NSCLC were treated with DS-1062a at doses of 0.27-mg/kg (n = 4), 0.5-mg/kg (n = 5), 1.0-mg/kg (n = 7), and 2.0-mg/kg (n = 6). Overall, mean (standard deviation) treatment duration and cumulative dose were 7.8 (4.1) weeks and 181.8 (141.4) mg, respectively, with a median of 2 (range 1–6) cycles initiated. The majority (n = 18; 81.8%) of pts had ≥1 treatment-emergent adverse event (TEAE). The most common TEAE, fatigue (n = 9), was the only grade ≥3 treatment-related TEAE (n = 1; 2.0-mg/kg). Serious TEAEs, reported in 5 pts in the 0.27-mg/kg (n = 2), 0.5-mg/kg (n = 2), and 2.0-mg/kg (n = 1) cohorts, were not treatment-related. TEAEs leading to discontinuation occurred in 1 pt in the 0.27-mg/kg cohort (pleural effusion; not treatment-related). One pt died due to progressive disease. Peak concentration (Cmax) and area under the curve from time 0 to last measurable concentration (AUClast) increases were generally dose proportional. Of 18 tumor evaluable pts, 1 had a partial response (PR; 1.0-mg/kg), and 8 had stable disease (SD). Conclusions: DS-1062a was well tolerated at doses up to 2.0-mg/kg. An observable PR and multiple pts with SD warrant further evaluation of DS-1062a. The maximum tolerated dose has not been reached, and this study is ongoing. Clinical trial information: NCT03401385.

SummaryBackground This open-label, phase 1 study investigated TAS4464, a potent NEDD8-activating enzyme inhibitor, in patients with advanced/metastatic solid tumors (JapicCTI-173,488; registered 13/01/2017). The primary objective was dose-limiting toxicities (DLTs). Maximum-tolerated dose (MTD) was investigated using an accelerated titration design. Methods The starting 10-mg/m2 dose was followed by an initial accelerated stage (weekly dosing; n = 11). Based on liver function test (LFT) results, a 14-day, 20-mg/m2 dose lead-in period was implemented (weekly dosing with lead-in; n = 6). Results Abnormal LFT changes and gastrointestinal effects were the most common treatment-related adverse events (AEs). DLTs with 56-mg/m2 weekly dosing occurred in 1/5 patients; five patients had grade ≥ 2 abnormal LFT changes at 40- and 56-mg/m2 weekly doses. Further dose escalation ceased because of the possibility of severe abnormal LFT changes occurring. DLTs with weekly dosing with lead-in occurred in 1/5 patients at a 56-mg/m2 dose; MTD could not be determined because discontinuation criteria for additional enrollment at that particular dose level were met. As no further enrollment at lower doses occurred, dose escalation assessment was discontinued. Serious treatment-related AEs, AEs leading to treatment discontinuation, and DLTs were all related to abnormal LFT changes, suggesting that TAS4464 administration could affect liver function. This effect was dose-dependent but considered reversible. Complete or partial responses to TAS4464 were not observed; one patient achieved prolonged stable disease. Conclusions MTD could not be determined due to TAS4464 effects on liver function. Further evaluation of the mechanism of NEDD8-activating enzyme inhibitor-induced abnormal liver function is required. Trial registration number JapicCTI-173,488 (registered with Japan Pharmaceutical Information Center). Registration date 13 January 2017

2051 Background: Pemetrexed (Alimta [AL]) and paclitaxel (P) are clinically active in a variety of tumors. The primary objective of this trial was to determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of the ALP combination; secondary objectives were: determination of dose-limiting toxicities (DLTs), definition of a recommended phase II dose, pharmacokinetic (PK) characterization and the anecdotal collection of antitumor activity. Methods: Escalating doses of P (3h infusion, d1 and d8) and AL (10 min infusion, d8 prior to P) were given in a 21d cycle. Results: 59 patients (pts) were enrolled. DLTs occurred at the following ALP (mg/m2) doses: 400/30 [G3 bilirubin (b), G3 and G4 thrombocytopenia (plts)]; 500/30 (G4 plts); 500/40 (G3 b); 500/75 (G4 ANC); 500/100 (G4 leukopenia, G4 ANC). With G4 leukopenia and G4 ANC in 4/6 pts and febrile neutropenia in 1 pt, the MTD was reached at the ALP (mg/m2) dose of 500/120. To confirm safety at the recommended dose-level, another 6 patients were treated at the ALP (mg/m2) dose of 500/100. 18 pts [mesothelioma (3), esophagus (2), lung (1), liver (1), renal (1), stomach (1), thyroid (9)] showed stable disease as best response. 4/14 (29%) pts with thyroid carcinoma showed long lasting partial responses [duration (months) 29+, 22, 18, 15]. One additional PR (2) was observed in a pt with penile carcinoma. AL PK when administered with P were consistent with those for AL administered as a single-agent. Conclusions: The ALP combination is safe and shows broad clinical activity. 500/100 mg/m2 is the recommended dose for further studies. Promising antitumor activity was observed in thyroid cancer. A phase II trial in thyroid carcinoma will be conducted. [Table: see text]

4102 Background: Mammalian target of rapamycin inhibitors added to SOR augment antitumor effect in HCC models. We developed a phase 1 trial to determine maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D) of TEM plus SOR in HCC patients (pts). The study was approved and funded by the National Comprehensive Cancer Network (NCCN) from general research support from Pfizer, Inc., and conducted at 2 NCCN centers. Methods: Eligibility: ≥1 measurable site. No prior systemic therapy (Tx). ECOG ≤2, Child Pugh ≤7, bilirubin ≤2 mg/dL, platelets (PLT) ≥75,000/mcL. Design: 3+3 escalation. Dose-limiting toxicity (DLT) window 28 days. MTD expansion cohort of 9 pts for PK and biomarkers. Endpoints: 1°: MTD, RP2D. 2°: Safety, toxicity, PK for TEM. Exploratory: Tumor necrosis, alpha fetoprotein (AFP)-L3, des-γ-carboxyprothrombin, and circulating tumor cells (CTC) by slide-based assay. Results: 21 pts enrolled. Median age: 60 (47-77). Male/Female: 15/6. Etiology: HCV 9 (43%), HBV 4 (19%), HBV+HCV 2 (10%), ETOH 2 (10%), unknown 4 (19%). Toxicity: DL1: 1 DLT Grade (Gr) 3 PLT. All pts required reductions for adverse events (AE); de-escalated to DL-1 for intolerability. DL-1: 1 DLT Gr3 hand-foot syndrome (HFS). Most common related ≥Gr 3 AE: HypoPO4 (52%); PLT (24%); transaminitis (19%); diarrhea, fatigue, HFS (10% each). Possibly related serious AE (SAE): Gr4 tumor rupture, Gr4 urosepsis, Gr3 dental infection with Gr2 ANC, Gr2 pneumonia (1 pt, 5% each). Best response: Confirmed partial response (PR) 2/21 (10%), stable disease (SD) 11/21 (52%), progression 1/21 (5%), 7/21 (33%) not evaluable. Time on study: Range <1 to 19+ months; median 3+ months for pts who completed ≥1 cycle (16/21). 16/21 (76%) had baseline elevated AFP ≥20; 8/16 (50%) had >50% decline. CTC were detected in 5/5 of tested samples. Decreased tumor enhancement on Tx was seen. Conclusions: DL-1 is MTD and RP2D, lower than a prior trial in pts without HCC; tolerability may be impacted by cirrhosis. Encouraging durable radiographic and AFP responses occurred.

2504 Background: Birinapant (B) is a SMAC-mimetic that inhibits IAPs with excellent tolerability, drug exposure, target suppression and apoptotic pathway activation in clinical studies. Preclinical studies demonstrate potent anti-tumor synergy when B is combined with TNFa-inducing chemotherapies (CT). Methods: Escalating doses of B were combined with CT in a 5-arm 3+3 phase 1 study for adults (pts) with relapsed/refractory solid tumors to determine maximum tolerated dose (MTD), pharmacokinetics (PK), and efficacy to identify indications for further studies. The arms included carboplatin/paclitaxel (CP), irinotecan (I), docetaxel (D), gemcitabine (G), and liposomal doxorubicin (LD). Results: 124 pts were treated with B at doses of 2.8 to 47 mg/m2. The MTD of B for each arm was CP (47 mg/m2); I (22 mg/m2); D (47 mg/m2). The proposed G regimen could not be administered in heavily pretreated pts and B could not be evaluated for dose escalation; this arm was discontinued and no dose-limiting toxicities (DLT) occurred. LD drug shortage prevented dose escalation for B > 35mg/m2 (MTD not reached). B did not limit CT administration for CP, I, D, LD, supporting tolerable combination of B with CT. B-associated toxicity of Bell’s palsy (Grade 2) was considered a DLT and noted at higher dose levels for I, D, and LD, but not CP. This unusual reversible toxicity occurred during cycle 1 in 7 pts. Six of these pts continued therapy without recurrence. PK studies demonstrated no effect of B on CT. Except for CP, CT did not change the PK of B. CP increased plasma PK for B, possibly due to OATP1B3 transporter effects, but without increased B toxicities. 11 pts had a partial response, 61 pts had stable disease (>2 cycles, median 4.6 mo) and 37 pts had progressive disease as their best response, with clinical benefit (CR+PR+SD) of 58%. Conclusions: B can be combined with excellent tolerability with multiple CT at standard dosing. B plus CT demonstrated clinical benefit in many tumor types. Notable clinical activity occurred with I + B in pts who had failed prior I. These results support planning for further clinical studies of the I + B, and support the hypothesis for TNFa-mediated I + B synergy. Clinical trial information: NCT01188499.

e15126 Background: Somastatin analogs (SSA), including octreotide and lanreotide, bind predominantly to somatostatin receptor (SSTR) 2 and form the foundation of treatment for symptomatic neuroendocrine tumors (NET). Pasireotide, a novel SSA with a broad binding affinity (SSTR 1-3 and 5), is being explored for treatment of NET. A phase 1 dose-escalation study (NCT01364415) of pasireotide long-acting release (LAR; starting dose of 80 mg) was designed to determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) or recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D) and to characterize safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, and efficacy in pts with advanced NET. Methods: Pts with advanced, well- or moderately differentiated NET received pasireotide LAR beginning at a dose of 80 mg q28d. Successive cohorts will receive doses (up to 220 mg) guided by a Bayesian logistic regression model until MTD/RP2D is reached. Results: To date, 15 pts have been treated at 80 mg (n=6) and 120 mg (n=9). Median age is 59 (44-76) years. Primary tumor sites include small intestine (40%), pancreas (20%), and lung (13.3%). All pts received prior antineoplastic therapy; 93% received prior SSA. Median number of cycles of pasireotide was 6.68 (2-14) (1 cycle=28 days). 10 (67%) pts remain on treatment: 3 on 80 mg and 7 on 120 mg. 5 (33%) have discontinued (disease progression, 2 pts; withdrew consent, 2 pts; adverse event [AE], 1 pt). Median plasma concentrations of pasireotide increased with dose. No dose-limiting toxicities have been reported. Most frequent AEs were similar in both dose groups and included hyperglycemia (87%), diarrhea (53%), abdominal pain (47%), nausea (40%), anemia (33%), and fatigue (33%). Most AEs were mild/moderate. 2 pts (1 in each group) had grade 3 hyperglycemia. 4 (27%) and 2 (13%) pts had HbA1C increase from <6.5% at baseline to 6.5-<8% and ≥8%, respectively. 13 (87%) pts had radiographically stable disease as best response. More pts at 120 mg (50%) vs 80 mg (33%) achieved ≥50% reduction in chromogranin A. Conclusions: Pasireotide LAR up to 120 mg appears to be well tolerated in patients with advanced NET. The study is ongoing. Pasireotide represents a promising therapy for pts with NET. Clinical trial information: NCT01364415.

9549 Background: Preclinical findings have shown a synergy between RT and anti-CTLA-4 monoclonal antibody in several tumor animal models for both local tumor control and distant effects. Preliminary clinical data suggest that it could be due to an abscopal effect of RT. The Mel-Ipi-Rx phase 1 study aimed to determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and safety profile of RT combined with ipilimumab in pts with metastatic melanoma. Methods: A 3+3 dose escalation design was used with 9, 15, 18 and 24 Gy dose of RT (in 3 fractions) at week 4 combined with 10 mg/kg ipilimumab (every 3 weeks for 4 doses). Pts with evidence of clinical benefit at week 12 were eligible for maintenance ipilimumab at 10 mg/kg every 12 weeks starting at week 24 until severe toxicity or disease progression based on immune-related response criteria (irRC). Results: 19 pts with advanced melanoma received ipilimumab between August 2011 and July 2015. Nine pts received the 4 doses of ipilimumab and 2 pts received maintenance ipilimumab (1 and 2 cycles respectively). All pts received the combined RT at week 4 in 3 fractions. All pts presented at least one AE of any grade. The most common AEs were asthenia, diarrhea, desease-related pain and fever. Grade 3 AEs occurred in 8 pts. They included colitis (n = 3), hepatitis (n = 2), anemia (n = 2), asthenia (n = 1), thyroid disorders (n = 1) and nausea/vomiting (n = 1). Nine pts discontinued the study owing to treatment-related adverse events including colitis (n = 6), hepatitis (n = 2) and DRESS (Drug Rash with Eosinophilia and systemic syndrome) (n = 1). DLT occurred in 2/6 pts in the cohort receiving 15 Gy. No drug-related death occurred. According to irRC, 4 partial responses (ORR: 21%) and 4 stable diseases were observed at week 24. The MTD was 9 Gy dose. One pt out of 12 treated in the 9 Gy cohort presented a DLT (grade 3 colitis). The median progression-free survival [95% CI] was 7.2 months [2.4 – 16.8]. The median overall survival [95% CI] was 14.4 months [7.2 – 20.4]. Conclusions: When combined with ipilimumab at 10 mg/kg, in the present design, the MTD of RT was 9 Gy. This combination appears to be associated with antitumor activity. Clinical trial information: 2010-020317-93.

3083 Background: PG545 (pixatimod, pINN) is a novel immunomodulatory agent which stimulates dendritic cells (DC) via TLR9/IL-12 pathway to activate natural killer (NK) cells. It also inhibits tumour-associated macrophages in cancer models. We report on safety, PK, PD, and antitumor activity of PG545 monotherapy. Methods: In this dose escalation (3+3 design) study, eligible pts (ECOG≤1) with advanced solid malignancies who failed standard therapies received PG545 once weekly as a 1-hour i.v. infusion until disease progression or discontinuation due to intolerability. The primary objective was determination of the maximum tolerated dose (MTD). Secondary objectives evaluated safety, antitumor activity based on RECIST (1.1) criteria, PK and PD (plasmacytoid DC & NKp46+NK cells from PBMC, and plasma cytokines/chemokines). Results: The study recruited 23 subjects across four cohorts (25, 50, 100 & 150 mg). Three dose limiting toxicities (DLTs) - hypertension (2), epistaxis (1) - occurred in the 150 mg cohort, which was identified as a non-tolerated dose level. No DLTs occurred in the 100 mg cohort, which was identified as the MTD. Six SAEs were reported to be possibly or likely related to PG545 treatment. No RECIST 1.1 objective responses were reported; best response was prolonged stable disease up to 24 weeks (mCRC), with disease control rate in evaluable subjects of 38% (6/16) at eight weeks. Exposure (AUC0-last) was proportional up to 100mg and mean half-life was 144 hours. At 50 and 100mg dose levels, two subjects in each cohort exhibited up to 4-fold increased numbers of NKp46+NK cells, IFN-α-producing pDCs, and increases (up to 25-fold) in plasma IFN-γ, TNF-α, IP-10 and MCP-1. Conclusions: PG545 is well tolerated up to 100 mg once-weekly via i.v. infusion. Human exposure data at 50mg and 100mg reach exposures consistent with those required for preclinical efficacy. Preliminary PD data support the proposed mechanism of action, which represents a promising approach to improve the efficacy of existing therapies. These data, and the absence of toxicities associated with chemo- or immunotherapies, support the development of PG545 in combination clinical trials. Clinical trial information: NCT02042781.

431 Background: EV is an ADC that selectively targets and kills cells expressing Nectin-4 by delivering a potent microtubule-disrupting agent, monomethyl auristatin E. As mUC tumors express Nectin-4 in almost all pts, the EV clinical profile was assessed in an ongoing Phase 1 study (NCT02091999) at the recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D; 1.25 mg/kg) in mUC pts with CPI failure, a population with a high unmet medical need. Methods: Pts with mUC, treated with ≥1 prior chemotherapy or who were ineligible for platinum chemotherapy, and who had disease progression after CPI therapy received an IV infusion of EV at RP2D on Days 1, 8, and 15 of each 28-day cycle. Primary endpoint was tolerability; a secondary endpoint was investigator-assessed antitumor activity per RECIST v1.1. Results: As of 2 Oct 2017, 62 pts with mUC and prior CPI failure received EV at RP2D (48 M/14 F; median age, 68 yr [range: 41–83]; ECOG 0/1 29%/71%). Primary tumor site was bladder in 73% pts; 63% pts had visceral and 27% had liver metastasis (LM). Most pts (71%) had ≥2 prior therapies in the metastatic setting, including platinum (87%) or taxanes (26%). CPI was the most recent therapy in 76% pts; time from last CPI to first EV dose was < 12 wk for 58% pts. Median treatment duration was 14.8 wk (range: 1.6–40.4); 39 pts continue treatment. Treatment-related AEs occurring in ≥30% pts were fatigue, rash, nausea, alopecia, decreased appetite and diarrhea; most grade ≤2. Grade ≥3 AE reported in ≥5% pts, regardless of attribution, was hyponatremia (6.5%). One fatal AE (respiratory failure) was possibly treatment related. Response evaluable pts (n = 54) had ≥1 post baseline scan or discontinued prior to scan. ORR (confirmed + unconfirmed) was 54% (95% CI: 39.6–67.4); 15 pts had a confirmed PR, 5 had unconfirmed PR, and 9 are pending subsequent assessment. This ORR is similar to CPI-naïve pts (59%; 95% CI: 36.4–79.3). ORR from 17 evaluable pts with LM was 41% (95% CI: 18.4–67.1). Conclusions: EV is tolerable and exhibits antitumor activity in a cohort of pts with mUC and disease progression after CPI. A phase 2 study assessing EV in this population with high unmet need has been initiated (NCT03219333; EV-201 study). Clinical trial information: NCT02091999.
