8558 Background: The anti-CTLA-4 tremelimumab at two different dose-schedules of administration showed promising activity in second-line malignant mesothelioma (MM) patients (Calabrò et al., Lancet Oncol, 2013; Calabrò et al., Lancet Respir Med, 2015). These initial results and the efficacy of targeting the PD-1/PD-L1 axis in different tumor types, prompted the NIBIT-MESO-1 study aimed at investigating the efficacy and safety of tremelimumab combined with the anti-PD-L1 durvalumab in mm patients. We report the safety analysis from the fully-enrolled NIBIT-MESO-1 study. Methods: The NIBIT-MESO-1 is a phase II, open-label, single Center study. Forty mm patients received tremelimumab at 1 mg/Kg i.v. every 4 weeks (Q4W) for 4 doses, and durvalumab at 20 mg/Kg i.v. Q4W for 13 doses. Primary objective is immune-related (ir)-objective response rate; secondary are safey, ir-disease control rate, ir-progression free survival, and overall survival. Tumor assessment per ir-modified RECIST or ir-RECIST 1.1 for pleural or peritoneal MM, respectively, was performed at baseline and q12 weeks. Adverse events (AEs) were recorded according to CTC v4.0. (ClinicalTrials.gov Id: NCT02588131). Results: From October 2015 to October 2016, 40 mm patients (38 pleural and 2 peritoneal), median age 64 years (range 41-80), ECOG performance status 0 (n = 19) or 1 (n = 21) were enrolled in the study. mm histology was epithelioid (n = 32), biphasic (n = 5), sarcomatoid (n = 2) or undefined (n = 1). As of January 2017, 12 first or 28 second-line mm patients received a median of 5.5 doses of therapy (range = 1-13). Twenty-four patients (60%) experienced any grade irAEs: 5 patients (12.5%) had grade 3-4 AEs, the most frequent being hepatotoxicity (7.5%). AEs were generally manageable and reversible per protocol guidelines. Three patients (7.5%) were discontinued due to treatment-related AEs (1 trombocytopenia, 1 limbic encephalitis, 1 liver toxicity). Conclusions: The combination of tremelimumab and durvalumab is safe and manageable in mm patients. Clinical trial information: NCT02588131.

5566 Background: High EGFR expression occurs in 35–70% of primary ovarian tumors and is often associated with poor prognosis. This Phase II, open-label, non-comparative multicenter study investigated the efficacy and tolerability of gefitinib (Iressa) in combination with paclitaxel (P) and carboplatin (C) for second-line treatment of patients (pts) with ovarian, tubal or peritoneal adenocarcinoma. Methods: Women (>18 years) with platinum-resistant/refractory (relapsed <6 months after first-line platinum-based and P chemotherapy), or platinum-sensitive (relapsed >6 months) disease were enrolled. Pts received gefitinib (500 mg/day), P (175 mg/m2) and C (AUC 5) every 3 weeks for 6–8 cycles, after which pts could continue to receive gefitinib. The primary endpoint was objective response rate (ORR) assessed using RECIST or Rustin criteria. Results: Sixty-eight pts (26 resistant/refractory and 42 sensitive) were enrolled (median age [range]: 57 [34–72] years; ECOG performance status 0/1/2: 41/26/1). ORR and disease control rates were 19.2% and 69.2%, respectively, for resistant/refractory; and 61.9% and 81.0%, respectively, for sensitive pts (see table ). Grade 3/4 toxicities (in =10% pts) were neutropenia (59%), diarrhea (25%), leukopenia (22%), anemia (13%), and acne (13%). Two myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) and one acute biphenotypic leukemia were observed during treatment. Another pt developed MDS 34 months after study treatment discontinuation. Conclusions: Gefitinib (Iressa) in combination with P and C has promising activity as second-line treatment for ovarian, tubal or peritoneal adenocarcinoma and is generally well tolerated. The hemopathies are under further investigation. [Table: see text] No significant financial relationships to disclose.

Efficacy Parameters

6022 Background: Dasatinib is a potent inhibitor of src-family kinases, ephA2, PDGFR, Abl, and c-kit. A single-center, open-label, phase II trial was conducted to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK), and efficacy of dasatinib in recurrent or metastatic HNSCC. Methods: Pts with measurable disease by RECIST, who received 0 or 1 prior regimen for recurrent or metastatic HNSCC with an ECOG performance status 0–1 and tumor tissue appropriate for IHC and FISH were eligible. Dasatinib 100 mg bid was given for 28-day cycles. Primary endpoints were 12-wk progression-free survival (PFS) and objective response rate (ORR). Pts who took at least 1 dose of dasatinib and who died or left study before 12 wks were counted as progressive disease (PD). A 2 stage design, closure after accrual of 15 pts was required if PFS was 45% or less and ORR was 0. Otherwise, planned accrual was 35. Response was assessed at 4 and 12 wks. PK was studied in pts receiving dasatinib per PEG. Biomarkers relevant to Src pathway were planned in tissue and blood. Results: Fifteen pts were accrued. To date, 13 pts are evaluable for response, and 15 pts for toxicity. No grade 3/4 hematologic toxicities were noted. Grade 2–4 nonhematologic toxicities(n): pleural effusion(2), nausea/vomiting(2), dehydration(1), diarrhea(1), dyspnea(1). Toxicity led to hospitalization of 4 pts and drug discontinuation in 5 pts. ORR was 0. One pt was stable at 12 wks (PFS: 7.6%). This pt stopped drug at 15 wks due to toxicity, but also had PD. One pt died on study and cause was deemed unlikely related. Conclusions: Dosed at 100mg bid, dasatinib led to a characteristic toxicity profile in this pt population. Rates of hospitalization and discontinuation for toxicity were fairly high. Final efficacy parameters are pending evaluation of 2 pts. Evaluation of PK and tissue/blood biomarkers is ongoing. No significant financial relationships to disclose.

The Impact

TPS3635^ Background: The identification of prognostic and predictive biomarkers could significantly improve the risk-benefit ratio and cost-effectiveness of 1st-line mCRC regimens. This is the first prospective study of tumoral ERCC1 (chemo-resistance marker to platinum compounds) and plasma VEGF-A as potential biomarkers for oxaliplatin- and BV-containing regimens, respectively, in an effort to further define the optimal chemotherapy backbone with biologic therapies, including BV, for mCRC. Methods: In this randomized, open-label, global, phase II study, patients (N=360) with histologically or cytologically confirmed CRC and ≥1 measurable metastatic lesion are stratified at screening by tumoral ERCC1 mRNA expression (high vs low, cutoff of 1.7 [ERCC1/β-actin mRNA]). Eligibility criteria include completion of adjuvant therapy >12 months before screening and an ECOG performance status ≤1. Blood samples are collected to quantify plasma VEGF-A levels. Patients within each ERCC1 stratification group are randomized 1:1 to mFOLFOX6-BV or FOLFIRI-BV administered in 2-week cycles. BV will be given at a dose of 5 mg/kg IV q2w. Patients will remain on study treatment until disease progression (PD) or unacceptable toxicity. If oxaliplatin or irinotecan need to be discontinued, BV and 5-fluorouracil or capecitabine are to be continued until PD. The primary objectives are: 1) to assess ERCC1 and VEGF-A as biomarkers of progression-free survival (PFS) for oxaliplatin- and BV-containing regimens in 1st-line mCRC, and 2) within ERCC1 high patients, to test whether FOLFIRI-BV is associated with a prolonged 1st-line PFS compared to mFOLFOX6-BV. Secondary objectives include assessing the impact of these markers on overall survival, objective response, hepatic metastases resection, and safety. Exploratory endpoints include correlative analyses with additional tumor tissue, blood, and SNP markers. The first patient was enrolled in August 2011. An interim biomarker distribution assessment of the first 100 patients is planned, and the evaluation of the primary endpoints is estimated for early 2015. Clinicaltrials.gov: NCT01374425.

First Line Therapy

4506 Background: Sunitinib (S) is established as a standard first-line therapy for patients (pts) with advanced RCC. However, treatment can be limited by the occurrence of drug-related adverse events (AEs). This Phase II study assessed the efficacy and safety of nintedanib (N) – a potent, triple angiokinase inhibitor of VEGFR-1–3, PDGFR-α/β, and FGFR-1–3, as well as RET and Flt3 – vs S in previously untreated pts with RCC. Methods: Ninety-nine eligible pts (96 of whom were treated) with advanced, unresectable/recurrent clear cell RCC, an ECOG performance status of 0–1, and no prior systemic therapy were randomized 2:1 to receive N 200 mg twice daily (n=64; given in 4-week cycles) or S 50 mg once daily (n=32; 4 weeks on, 2 weeks off schedule). Treatment continued until disease progression or unacceptable drug-related AEs. Primary endpoints were progression-free survival at 9 months (PFS-9) and, in N-treated pts only, QTc interval change (baseline to day 15). Secondary endpoints included PFS, objective response rate (ORR; RECIST 1.1), overall survival (OS), time to progression (TTP), time to treatment failure (TTF), and AEs. Results: Baseline characteristics were balanced between the arms. PFS-9 was not statistically significantly different between N- and S-treated pts (43 vs 45%; p=0.85). There were also no statistically significant differences between N and S with regard to PFS (median: 8.44 vs 8.38 mo; hazard ratio: 1.16; 95% CI: 0.71–1.89; p=0.56), confirmed ORR (18.8 vs 31.3%; p=0.19), OS (median: 20.37 vs 21.22 mo; p=0.63), TTP (median: 8.48 vs 8.54 mo; p=0.52), and TTF (median: 8.41 vs 8.36 mo; p=0.46). Grade ≥3 AEs occurred in 47% of N-treated pts and 56% of S-treated pts. Common AEs (all grades; N vs S) included diarrhea (61 vs 50%), nausea (38 vs 34%), fatigue (both 25%), and vomiting (16 vs 22%). Dermatologic AEs (8 vs 47%) were less frequent with N than S. There was no increase from baseline in QTc >60 ms on days 1 or 15 in N-treated pts, and there was no relationship between N exposure and QT interval change. Conclusions: N demonstrated similar efficacy to S and had a manageable safety profile, including a lower incidence of dermatologic AEs vs S. In addition, N was not associated with QT prolongation. Clinical trial information: NCT01024920.

588 Background: Now fluoropyrimidine plus Bmab is considered a recommendable option to the majority of elderly mCRC patients who are deemed inappropriate for the standard doublet chemotherapy with biologics. Our previous phase II study of UFT/ LV in elderly mCRC patients (≥75 years old) had demonstrated acceptable safety and efficacy (overall response rate [ORR] 33%, progression-free survival [PFS] 5.3 months, overall survival [OS] 18 months). The aim of the present study was to investigate the efficacy and safety of Bmab in combination with UFT/LV for elderly mCRC patients. Methods: This study was designed as a single-arm, open-label, multicenter, cooperative group (SGOSG-TCTG) clinical trial (trial registration: UMIN000003515). Key eligibility criteria included age ≥75 years, ECOG performance status (PS) 0 or 1, first-line chemotherapy, measurable lesions, and preserved organ functions. Patients received UFT 300mg/m2/day and LV 75mg/body/day on days 1-21 followed by 7 days rest, and intravenous administration of Bmab 5mg/kg on days 1 and 15. Treatment repeated every 28 days. The primary endpoint was PFS, and secondary endpoints were ORR, OS, and safety. Results: A total of 55 patients were enrolled from 15 institutions between Aug 2008 and Mar 2012. Among them, 52 eligible patients were evaluated. Median age was 80 years (range: 75-87). ECOG PS 0 was 73%. Median PFS was 8.2 months (95% confidence interval [CI], 6.2-10.3, events in 86.5%). Confirmed ORR was 40.4% (95% CI, 27.0-54.9%). Median OS was 18.7 months (95% CI, 10.3-27.0, events in 48%). The most common grade ≥3 treatment-related adverse events were hypertension (11.5%), fatigue (7.7%), nausea (5.8%), and diarrhea (5.8%). The treatment-related death occurred in 2 (3.8%) patients. Main reasons for discontinuation of treatment were disease-progression (62.5%) and toxicity (27.1%). Conclusions: Bmab in combination with UFT/LV is tolerable and effective treatment option for elderly patients (≥75 years old) with mCRC. Further trial with Bmab plus UFT/LV targeting elderly mCRC patients would be warranted. Clinical trial information: 000003515.

TPS9114 Background: Transforming growth factor β (TGF- β) promotes tumor progression via immune- and non–immune-related processes. M7824 is an innovative first-in-class bifunctional fusion protein composed of 2 extracellular domains of TGF-βRII (a TGF-β “trap”) fused to a human IgG1 monoclonal antibody against PD-L1. Targeting these independent and complementary pathways may restore and enhance antitumor responses. An expansion cohort of the NCT02517398 study of patients with advanced NSCLC (n = 80) treated with M7824 in the second-line setting presented at ESMO 2018 showed an objective response rate of 86% in the subgroup with high PD-L1 tumor expression at the recommended phase 2 dose (1200 mg intravenously [IV] every 2 weeks [Q2W]). Observed data support the hypothesis that M7824 may be superior to other PD-(L)1 inhibitors, including pembrolizumab, for the treatment of NSCLC. Based on the promising antitumor activity and manageable safety profile, this study will evaluate M7824 treatment in patients with advanced NSCLC in the 1L setting. Methods: Here we present a global, randomized trial comparing M7824 vs pembrolizumab in the 1L treatment of patients with metastatic NSCLC with high PD-L1 expression levels. Patients in this study must have a histologically confirmed diagnosis of advanced NSCLC with high PD-L1 expression on tumor cells (defined as either ≥80% by the Dako 73-10 pharmDx kit or ≥50% by the Dako 22C3 pharmDx kit since both assays are expected to select a similar patient population at their respective cut-offs). ECOG performance status must be 0 or 1. Patients must not have received prior systemic treatment for advanced NSCLC. Patients with tumors with actionable mutations (for which targeted therapy is locally approved) are not eligible. Patients will receive 1200 mg Q2W or pembrolizumab 200 mg Q3W as an IV infusion until confirmed disease progression, unacceptable toxicity, or trial withdrawal. Dual primary endpoints are progression-free survival and best overall response; key secondary endpoints include overall survival, duration of response, and safety. Estimated enrollment is 300 patients. Clinical trial information: NCT03631706.

5017 Background: Pembrolizumab (pembro) is a new standard of care in chemotherapy (CT) pre-treated patients (pts) with metastatic UC. Nab-paclitaxel demonstrated preliminary activity in advanced UC. In the PEANUT study (NCT03464734) we investigated their combination in advanced UC after CT failure. Methods: In an open-label, single-arm, phase 2 trial, pts received 200 mg pembro, intravenously (IV), on D1 and 125 mg/m2 IV nab-paclitaxel on D1 and D8, every 3 weeks, until disease progression (PD) or unacceptable toxicity. Inclusion criteria were: predominant UC histology, failure of ≤2 platinum-based CT for metastatic disease. Response was evaluated by RECIST v.1.1 criteria every 2 cycles. Biomarkers included PD-L1 combined positive score (CPS) and comprehensive genomic profiling on tumor and blood samples (FoundationONE and FoundationACT assay). The primary endpoint was the progression-free survival (PFS). The target was to detect an improvement in the median PFS from ≤3.0 months (H0) to ≥5.0 months (H1). Results: Between 01 and 12/2019, PEANUT study enrolled 65 pts: 24% were female, median age was 69 yrs (IQR: 61-73); 25% had failed > 1 prior systemic therapies; 35% had ECOG-performance status 1; 33% had liver metastases. The median TMB was 6.9 mut/Mb. After median follow-up (FUP) of 5.5 months, 34 pts have relapsed (52.3%). The median PFS was 5 months (95%CI: 3-not reached). The 3-month PFS was 60.7% (95%CI: 49.8-74.1). The confirmed objective response-rate (ORR) was 47.7% (95%CI: 35.2-60.4): 22 partial responses and 9 complete responses (13.8%). The median duration of response was not reached, and 4 pts (6.1%) are long-term responders ( > 12 months). Grade 3 treatment-related adverse events (TRAE) were seen in 20 pts (30.7%). Most common any-grade TRAE included alopecia (76%), neutropenia (33.3%) and asthenia (33%). Neither TMB nor CPS were significantly associated with PFS on univariable analyses. In matched tumor/blood samples, objective responses were seen in 8/10 pts with PI3KCA mutations (80%); 6/10 pts with RB1 alterations (60%); 5/12 pts with DNA damage repair gene alterations (41.7%). Conclusions: Pembro-nab-paclitaxel, the first salvage CT-immunotherapy combination in UC, demonstrated a good tolerability, promising PFS and a clinically meaningful ORR in II-III line setting of advanced UC. As more mature data on biomarker selection emerges, this combination warrants additional studies in either second-line or earlier disease settings. Clinical trial information: NCT03464734 .

Gastroesophageal Junction Cancer

BackgroundIrinotecan is used as second-line treatment in advanced gastric or gastroesophageal junction (G/GEJ) cancer. The role of anti-programmed death-1 (PD-1) antibody plus irinotecan, in this setting and population is unclear.MethodsThis multicenter, open-label, single-arm, phase II trial was conducted in 11 Chinese hospitals. Eligible patients had histologically confirmed advanced G/GEJ cancer that refractory to, or intolerant of, first-line chemotherapy with a platinum and/or fluoropyrimidine. Subjects received HX008 200 mg intravenously every 3 weeks plus irinotecan 160 mg/m2 intravenously every 2 weeks until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. The primary end point was objective response rate (ORR) as assessed according to Response Evaluation Criteria In Solid Tumors V.1.1.ResultsBetween October 2018 and September 2019, a total of 58 patients with advanced G/GEJ cancer were enrolled in this study. Median follow-up was 10.5 months (range 7.4–18.9) months. Confirmed ORR was observed in 16 patients, for an ORR of 27.6% (95% CI 16.1% to 39.1%); 19 patients experienced stable disease, leading to a disease control rate of 60.3% (95% CI 46.4% to 73.0%). ORR in patients with PD-ligand 1 (L1) positive (Combined Positive Score (CPS) ≥1) and negative (CPS＜1) tumors was 38.5% (5/13) and 37.5% (3/8), respectively. Median duration of response was 8.0 months (range 1.5–12.5), 6 of 16 (37.5%) responses were ongoing. Median progression-free survival (PFS) was 4.2 months (95% CI 2.2 to 5.5). Median overall survival (OS) was not reached (NR) (95% CI 8.7 to NR). Patients with PD-L1 positive tumors tended to have longer OS than those with PD-L1 negative tumors, but the difference was not statistically significant (NR vs 8.7 months, p=0.1858).The most common treatment-related adverse events of grade 3 or 4 included neutropenia (32.8%), leukopenia (31.0%), anemia (17.2%), decreased appetite (8.6%), vomit (6.9%), nausea (6.9%) and fatigue (5.2%). There were no treatment-related deaths.ConclusionThe combination of HX008 and irinotecan demonstrated promising activity and manageable safety as second-line treatment in patients with advanced G/GEJ cancer, which warrants further study.Trial registration numberNCT03704246

e15535 Background: Axitinib is a highly selective inhibitor of VEGFR-1, 2 and 3 and has recently been approved for second-line treatment of metastatic renal cell cancer (mRCC). We present data of 43 patients treated with axitinib in second-line and beyond. Methods: Medical records of all patients who were treated with axitinib between July 2009 and December 2012 were retrospectively reviewed. Axitinib was prescribed at a dose of 5 mg bid and escalated to 7 or 10 mg bid in the absence of hypertension and other dose-limiting toxicities. Objective response rate (ORR) was assessed by RECIST. Progression free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) were calculated from the first day of axitinib until progression and/or death, respectively. Results: Fourty-three patients with a median age of 65 years (range: 17-84) are currently evaluable for analysis. The majority of patients (58.1%) had an ECOG Performance status of 0 and were classified MSKC- intermediate risk (62.8%). All patients had undergone surgery for the primary tumor and 53.5% had three or more metastatic sites. Fifty-five percent of the patients received axitinib in third or fourth-line (14% and 41.9%, respectively). Prior therapies included sunitinib (86%), everolimus (35%) and pazopanib (35%) and 62.8% had progressed on sunitinib before axitinib was initiated. Objective remission and disease stabilization were observed in 14.3% and 40% of the entire population. The median PFS and OS were 6.8 months (95% CI: 5.5 – 8.0) and 17.2 months (95% CI: 10.8 – 23.6), respectively. Dose escalation to 7 or 10 mg bid was feasible in 40% of the patients. Fatigue (76.7%), hypertension (65.1%) and hypothyroidism (53.5%) were among the most commonly observed all grade toxicities. Conclusions: Axitinib showed considerable efficacy in both second-line and beyond second-line patients. Generous dose escalation based on a “treat to hypertension”-concept may have led to a longer PFS than previously reported from a purely VEGFR-TKI-refractory patient population.

502 Background: Combination chemotherapy of capecitabine plus oxaliplatin (XELOX) with bevacizumab is commonly used as standard chemotherapy for metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC). A previous meta-analysis showed that there was no difference between two age groups of <65 years and ≥65 years on overall survival (OS) after treatment with chemotherapy with bevacizumab. However, the safety and efficacy of XELOX with bevacizumab in elderly patients (pts) ≥75 years with mCRC remain unclear. Methods: This study was an open-label multicentre phase II study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of XELOX with bevacizumab in pts ≥75 years with metastatic CRC. The primary objective was to assess progression-free survival (PFS). The secondary endpoints were the safety, response rate (RR), time to treatment-failure (TTF) and OS. Results: 36 pts were enrolled. Pts characteristics were; median age 78 (range 75-86); male/female, 21/15; ECOG performance status 0/1, 30/6; colon/rectum 24/12, creatinine clearance (CCr) 60.2 ml/min (range 32.6-84.6). Median follow-up period was 220 days. RR was 55.6% and median TTF was 209 days. The median PFS and median OS are not reached. Grade 3 or 4 adverse events (AEs) were reported in 22 pts (62.8%). Common grade 3 or 4 AEs were hypertension (11.4%), leukopenia (20.0%), peripheral sensory neuropathy (14.3%), hand foot syndrome (8.6%), and fatigue (8.6%). Examining the relationship between renal function (CCr) and AEs, the incidence of Grade 3 or 4 AEs in the lower CCr group was significantly higher than that in the higher CCr group (61.6% vs. 47.8%; p=0.013); hematological toxicities (87.5% vs. 14.8%; p=0.0003) and non-hematological toxicities (61.5% vs. 11.1%; p=0.018). Conclusions: XELOX with bevacizumab is safely administered in elderly patients ≥75 years. Renal function (CCr) could be a good predictive marker for grade 3 or 4 AEs.
