3561 Background: Activating RAS mutation is a negative predictor of anti-EGFR therapy. In the final analysis of 20100007, the first phase 3 study to prospectively evaluate efficacy and safety of WT RAS ( KRAS and NRAS exons 2, 3, 4 ) mCRC, pmab + BSC continued to show improved survival (OS and PFS) and ORR. Recent data suggest that tumor burden reduction and ETS may contribute to improved OS. Previous studies have shown that pmab plus chemotherapy results in ETS, which correlates with OS benefit (Douillard et al, EJC, 2015; Rivera et al, JCO, 2015; Mansmann et al, JCO 2013). Here we report analyses of ETS and DpR and the effect on OS in patients (pts) with WT RAS mCRC treated with pmab monotherapy in the ‘0007 trial. Methods: Anti-EGFR naïve pts with WT KRAS exon 2 mCRC were randomized 1:1 to pmab + BSC or BSC. Pt tumors were further evaluated for RAS status, and DpR (percent tumor shrinkage at nadir or progression) and ETS (≥/< 0% or ≥/< 20% by week 8) were analyzed in WT RAS pts. OS and PFS were compared for each ETS group. Results: Of 377 pts with WT KRAS exon 2 mCRC, 270 were WT RAS (142 pmab + BSC, 128 BSC alone). In the pmab + BSC arm, 69.5% and 38.2% of pts had ≥0% and ≥20% ETS, respectively, and median (Q1, Q3) DpR was 16.9% (0%, 37.5%). OS was improved in pts with higher ETS (≥0% or ≥20%) compared with lower ETS (<0% or <20%; Table). Conclusions: In this post-hoc analysis, pmab monotherapy provided any ETS benefit (≥0%) in 69.5% of WT RAS mCRC pts, and ETS was associated with improved PFS and OS. Pmab should be considered both in combination and as monotherapy for its significant impact on OS and also for its ability for substantial ETS in pts with WT RAS mCRC. Validation is necessary to investigate the value and cutoff of ETS in a prospective study. Clinical trial information: NCT01412957. [Table: see text]

642 Background: An overall survival (OS) benefit in WT KRAS exon 2 mCRC was not seen with pmab monotherapy in study 20020408 possibly due to crossover of patients (pts) in the BSC arm. Retrospective analyses have indicated that other KRAS and NRAS mutations beyond KRAS exon 2 are predictive of anti-EGFR tx effects. Study 20100007 assesses the OS benefit of pmab in chemorefractory WT KRAS exon 2 mCRC and is the first phase 3 trial to prospectively evaluate pmab tx effects in WT RAS (exons 2, 3, and 4 of KRAS and NRAS) mCRC. Methods: Anti-EGFR naive pts were randomized 1:1 to receive pmab (6 mg/kg Q2W) + BSC or BSC. KRAS exon 2 and RAS mutation status of tumors were determined centrally. The primary endpoint was OS in WT KRAS exon 2 mCRC. Secondary endpoints were OS in WT RAS mCRC and progression-free survival (PFS), objective response rate (ORR), and safety in both WT KRAS exon 2 and WT RAS groups. Crossover was not permitted. Results: 377 pts with WT KRAS exon 2 mCRC were enrolled. RAS ascertainment rate was 86%. OS was significantly improved with pmab + BSC vs BSC in both WT KRAS exon 2 (HR=0.73, 95% CI=0.57-0.93, P=0.0096) and WT RAS (HR=0.70, 95% CI=0.53-0.93, P=0.0135) mCRC (results in table). Pts with mutant RAS mCRC did not benefit from pmab tx (OS HR=0.99, 95% CI=0.49-2.00). No new safety signals were seen. Conclusions: Pmabsignificantly improved OS in chemorefractory WT KRAS exon 2 mCRC. The tx effects in OS and PFS were more pronounced in those with WT RAS mCRC, further substantiating the importance of RAS testing at diagnosis to best inform the use of pmab to treat mCRC.

3620 Background: The primary and final analyses of PRIME demonstrated that pmab + FOLFOX4 significantly improved progression-free survival (PFS) vs FOLFOX4 alone for first-line treatment of patients (pts) with wild-type (WT) KRAS exon 2 mCRC. Methods: Pts were randomized 1:1 to pmab 6.0 mg/kg every 2 weeks + FOLFOX4 or FOLFOX4 alone and had no prior chemotherapy for mCRC, ECOG performance status ≤ 2, and tumor tissue for biomarker testing. The primary endpoint was PFS by central assessment. Secondary endpoints included OS, objective response rate, and safety. KRAS exon 2 tumor status was determined by a blinded central lab prior to the primary analysis. This exploratory analysis of updated survival (>80% OS events) estimated the treatment effect of pmab + FOLFOX4 compared with FOLFOX4 alone on OS by KRAS exon 2 status. Previous analyses in pts with WT KRAS exon 2 tumor status reported OS with an event rate of 54% of pts in the primary analysis and 68% of pts in the final analysis. Results: 1183 pts were randomized and received treatment: 593 pts in the pmab + FOLFOX4 arm and 590 pts in the FOLFOX4 alone arm. The KRAS exon 2 ascertainment rate was 93%, consistent with the primary analysis. 535/656 pts (82%) with WT KRAS exon 2 mCRC had an OS event at the time of this analysis. Results are shown (Table). Conclusions: In this updated analysis, an improvement in OS was observed in pts with WT KRAS exon 2 mCRC treated with pmab + FOLFOX4 vs FOLFOX4 alone (p = 0.03). Median OS was reduced in pts with mutant (MT) KRAS mCRC (p = 0.16) and is consistent with previous analyses. Updated efficacy and safety results will be presented. KRAS testing is critical to select appropriate pts with mCRC for treatment with pmab. Clinical trial information: NCT00364013. [Table: see text]

3617 Background: An exploratory biomarker analysis of the randomized, phase 3 monotherapy 20020408 study of pmab vs best supportive care (BSC) demonstrated that mutations in KRAS exon 3 and NRAS exons 2 and 3 appeared to be predictive of pmab response (Peeters et al, 2013). We expanded these results to determine whether mutations in exon 4 of the KRAS and NRAS genes are predictive for pmab treatment and to determine the treatment effect in the overall wild-type (WT) KRAS and NRAS population. Methods: Using a combination of Next Generation Sequencing, Sanger Sequencing, and WAVE-based SURVEYOR Scan Kits from Transgenomic, archival patient tumors were examined for mutations in KRAS and NRAS exon 4. These data were combined with previously presented data from KRAS and NRAS exon 2 and 3 analyses for evaluation of the comprehensive WT KRAS and NRAS subgroup. Results: 9/243 (3.7%) and 2/243 (0.8%) patient tumors with WT KRAS exon 2 status harbored a mutation in KRAS or NRAS exon 4, respectively. One tumor had mutations in both KRAS and NRAS exon 4. In the pmab arm, patients with WT KRAS and WT NRAS tumor status had an objective response rate (ORR) of 15% (11/72) whereas patients with mutant (MT) KRAS or MT NRAS tumor status had an ORR of 1% (1/95; 1 patient with MT KRAS exon 4 had a partial response). There were no responses in the BSC arm regardless of the tumor status. In this analysis set, the treatment hazard ratio (HR; pmab:BSC) for progression-free survival (PFS) in the WT KRAS and WT NRAS subgroup was 0.38 (95% CI: 0.27 - 0.56), and in the MT KRAS or MT NRAS subgroup was 0.98 (95% CI: 0.73 - 1.31). The original WT KRAS exon 2 subgroup PFS HR was 0.45 (95% CI: 0.34 - 0.59) (Amado et al, 2007). Conclusions: This exploratory analysis suggests that mutations in KRAS and NRAS exon 4 occur in a small, but meaningful percentage of patients with mCRC. Extending previous findings from this study in patients with MT KRAS and/or MT NRAS exon 2 and/or 3 tumors, patients with MT KRAS and/or MT NRAS exon 4 tumors do not appear to benefit from pmab therapy. Clinical trial information: NCT00113763.

507 Background: ASPECCT demonstrated that panitumumab (pmab) was noninferior to cetuximab (cmab) for overall survival (OS). Ad hoc analyses from ASPECCT suggested that hypomag was associated with better outcomes for pmab and cmab (Price 2015). However, results from the phase 3 NCIC CTG/AGITG CO.17 trial indicated hypomag at day 28 was associated with worse outcomes for cmab (Vickers 2013). Methods: Patients (pts) with chemorefractory WT KRASexon 2 mCRC were randomized 1:1 to receive pmab or cmab. Ad hoc analyses by hypomag were performed from the final analysis of ASPECCT at week 5, consistent with the NCIC CTG/AGITG CO.17 trial analysis (Vickers, 2013). Results: 999 pts were treated: 496 received pmab and 503 received cmab. Any grade hypomag was 29.0% and grade ≥3 was 7.3% in the pmab arm vs 19.3% and 2.8% in the cmab arm, respectively. In the pmab arm, 1.2% of pts discontinued treatment and 5% of pts had dose modifications due to hypomag vs 0.4% and 3% in the cmab arm, respectively. Efficacy results by hypomag are shown (Table). Conclusions: In ASPECCT, rates of hypomag were higher in the pmab vs the cmab arm. Pts who developed any grade hypomag with pmab or cmab had longer median OS compared with those pts who did not. Consistent with previous analyses, development of hypomag at week 5 was associated with worse median OS for cmab. Clinical trial information: NCT01001377. [Table: see text]

Early tumor shrinkage (ETS) and depth of response (DoR) predict favorable outcomes in metastatic colorectal cancer. We aim to evaluate their prognostic role in metastatic pancreatic cancer (PC) patients treated with first-line modified-FOLFIRINOX (FOLFOXIRI) or Gemcitabine + Nab-paclitaxel (GemNab). Hence, 138 patients were tested for ETS, defined as a ≥20% reduction in the sum of target lesions’ longest diameters (SLD) after 6–8 weeks from baseline, and DoR, i.e., the maximum percentage shrinkage in the SLD from baseline. Association of ETS and DoR with progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) was assessed. ETS was reached in 49 patients (39.5% in the FOLFOXIRI, 29.8% in the GemNab group; p = 0.280). In the overall population, ETS was significantly associated with better PFS (8.0 vs. 4.8 months, p < 0.001) and OS (13.2 vs. 9.7 months, p = 0.001). Median DoR was −27.5% (−29.4% with FOLFOXIRI and −21.4% with GemNab, p = 0.016): DoR was significantly associated with better PFS (9.0 vs. 6.7 months, p < 0.001) and OS (14.3 vs. 11.1 months, p = 0.031). Multivariate analysis confirmed both ETS and DoR are independently associated with PFS and OS. In conclusion, our study added evidence on the role of ETS and DoR in the prediction of outcome of PC patients treated with first-line combination chemotherapy.
