9053 Background: Anlotinib hydrochloride, an oral TKI targeting VEGFR, FGFR, PDGFR and c-Kit, showed promising efficacy in PhaseⅡstudy. Here, we evaluated the efficacy and safety of anlotinib as third-line treatment for advanced NSCLC, a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled Phase Ⅲtrial (ALTER-0303). Methods: Eligible ⅢB/Ⅳ NSCLC pts who progressed after at least 2 lines of prior therapies were randomized 2:1 to receive anlotinib or placebo (12 mg QD from day 1 to 14 of a 21-day cycle) till progression or intolerable toxicity. Enrolled pts harboring EGFR or ALK mutations must had failed in previous match-targeted therapies. The primary endpoint is OS; secondary endpoint includes PFS, DCR and ORR. Results: As of Aug 2016, total of 437 pts from 31 sites were randomized. The baseline characteristics of Anlotinib arm (N=294) and placebo arm (N=143) were well balanced in the age, gender, ECOG PS and gene states. With 292 OS events (66.82%), significant superiorities in OS, PFS, DCR and ORR were observed in Anlotinib arm according to investigator-assessed results. Grade ≥ 3 treatment-related AEs were hypertension, dermal toxicity and hypertriglyceridemia. There was no treatment–related death in either arm. (Data presented in the Table.) Conclusions: ALTER-0303 trial met its primary endpoint. Anlotinib significantly improved OS and PFS in advanced NSCLC with a manageable safety profile. The results strongly suggest that anlotinib should be considered as a candidate for the third-line treatment or beyond in advanced NSCLC. Clinical trial information: NCT02388919. [Table: see text]

8001 Background: Erlotinib (E), a small-molecule EGFR TKI, is proven to extend survival versus placebo (P) in 2nd/3rd-line advanced NSCLC. The phase III SATURN study (BO18192) was initiated to evaluate E as maintenance therapy after standard 1st-line platinum-based chemotherapy (CT) in advanced NSCLC. Methods: Patients with no evidence of disease progression after 4 cycles of CT were randomized to receive either E 150 mg/day or P until progression or unacceptable toxicity. The primary endpoint was progression-free survival (PFS) in all patients and the co-primary endpoint was PFS in EGFR immunohistochemistry-positive (IHC+) patients. Results: A total of 1,949 patients entered the CT phase, of whom 889 were randomized to E (n=438) or P (n=451). Median age was 60 years for both arms. Baseline characteristics for E and P arms (%): male/female: 73/27 and 75/25; adenocarcinoma + BAC/squamous-cell/other: 47/38/15 and 44/43/13; stage IIIB/IV: 26/74 and 24/76; Caucasian/Asian/other: 84/14/2 and 83/15/2; ECOG PS 0/1: 31/69 and 32/68; current/former/never smoker: 55/28/18 and 56/27/17. PFS (by investigator assessment; confirmed by independent review) was significantly prolonged with E versus P in all patients (HR 0.71 [95% CI 0.62–0.82]; p<.0001) and in EGFR IHC+ patients (HR 0.69 [95% CI 0.58–0.82]; p<.0001). Subgroup analyses will be reported. Response rate was 12% with E versus 5% with P. Disease control rate (complete response + partial response + stable disease >12 wks) was 40.8% with E versus 27.4% with P (p<.0001). OS data are not yet mature. E was well tolerated: the majority of treatment-related adverse events (AEs) were grade 1/2. AEs reported in ≥10% of all patients were rash (60% with E versus 9% with P) and diarrhea (20% with E versus 5% with P); again, most were grade 1/2. Only 2.3% of patients receiving E had a serious treatment-related AE and 2.8% withdrew due to a treatment-related AE. Conclusions: The SATURN study met its primary and co-primary endpoints with high statistical significance. Erlotinib in the 1st-line maintenance setting is well tolerated, and significantly improves disease control and delays progression versus placebo across patient subgroups. [Table: see text]

154 Background: While taxane-monotherapy following fluoropyrimidine plus platinum is recognized as the standard treatment strategy for advanced gastric cancer, triplet chemotherapy with docetaxel, cisplatin and S-1 (DCS) is another option for first-line therapy in Japan. However, efficacy of taxane after DCS therapy has not been sufficiently evaluated. Methods: We retrospectively evaluated the efficacy and safety of taxane-monotherapy after DCS between January 2010 and April 2015 for advanced gastric cancer. The taxane-monotherapy included weekly paclitaxel (PTX) (80 mg/m2, day 1, 8 and 15 of a 28-day cycle) and triweekly nab-PTX (260 mg/m2, day 1). Other selection criteria were: ECOG PS < 2; adequate organ function; no severe ascites; HER2-negative. Results: Thirty of 92 patients who had been treated with DCS received taxane-monotherapy. Fifteen and 15 patients received taxane-monotherapy as the second and third-line treatment, respectively. Patients characteristics of each group (2nd/3rd) were; median age: 64/62 (range 27-75/42-75); ECOG PS ≤ 1: 14/13; number of metastatic sites ≥ 2: 9/12; median taxane-free interval from first-line treatment: 1.6/3.4 (range 0.9-2.3/2.2-8.3) months; median total dose of prior DTX: 349/208 (range 39-844/141-685) mg/m2. Number of patients who received PTX/nab-PTX were 10/5 and 13/2 in the second and third line treatment. Median relative dose intensity of taxane was 96.4% (range 57.6-172.9%) in the second-line, 98.5% (44.0-166.8%) in the third-line group. Response rate and disease control rate were 0% and 37.5% in the second-line, and 0% and 38.5% in the third-line group. Median progression free survival and overall survival were 3.4 and 5.8 months in the second-line group, and 2.0 and 4.5 months in the third-line. Grade 3 or 4 neutropenia, anemia, and anorexia, occurred in 33%, 13% and 13% in the second-line group, and 6.7%, 13% and 6.7% in the third–line group, associated with no treatment related death. Conclusions: It is suggested that taxane-monotherapy has acceptable toxicities but insufficient efficacy in advanced gastric cancer patients after DCS therapy.
