e12534 Background: In the PALOMA-2 study, 1L PAL+L prolonged progression-free survival in women with estrogen receptor-positive/HER2- ABC vs placebo + L (hazard ratio 0.58; P< 0.001). Here we assess a cohort of Canadian pts treated with 1L PAL+L for ABC in an EAP study (NCT02142868). Methods: This was an open-label, single-arm study of US and Canadian postmenopausal women (N = 337) with HR+/HER2- ABC for whom 1L ET with L was deemed appropriate. The primary objective was to allow pt access to PAL in combination with L. PAL (125 mg/d orally [3 wk on, 1 wk off]) was administered with L (2.5 mg orally QD) until PAL was commercially available. Secondary objectives included safety and patient-reported outcomes (PROs). Results: 96/97 (99%) treated/enrolled Canadian pts were assessed for safety and PROs (treated pt characteristics: median age 62.5 y, white/Asian [89%/7%], metastatic sites bone/lung/liver [71%/25%/17%], ECOG PS 0-1/2 [93%/7%], 89% with prior systemic anticancer treatment [tx]). Median exposure was 4 x 28 d cycles of tx, and the median average PAL dose was 125 mg/d. All-causality treatment-emergent adverse events (AEs) were reported in 100% pts; 68% had grade 3/4 events, the most common events were neutropenia (61%), infections (3%), and alanine aminotransferase increase (3%). Grade 4 neutropenia and grade 3 febrile neutropenia were reported in 2% and 1% of pts, respectively. Due to AEs, PAL was temporarily discontinued in 59% and 31% had ≥1 dose reduction. The main reasons pts permanently discontinued from the study were sponsor study termination, 77%; objective progression, 11%; and AE related/unrelated to study drug, 6%/2%. All EQ-5D questions were completed by 96% pts at baseline and 85% by end of tx (EOT). At EOT, the median EQ-5D index and the EQ visual analog scale scores were not significantly changed from baseline. Conclusions: A safe and tolerable profile was observed for PAL+L in 1L treatment of Canadian pts with HR+/HER2− ABC, consistent with other studies.

Her2 Breast Cancer

1087 Background: Breast cancer is the most common cancer among women, with up to 37% of patients (pts) harboring germline BRCA1/2 mutations (g BRCA1/2m) that appear to be sensitive to poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase proteins 1 and 2 (PARP1/2) inhibition. Pamiparib is an orally administered selective PARP1/2 inhibitor that has the potential to cross the blood-brain barrier. This study evaluated the efficacy and safety of pamiparib in pts with locally advanced/metastatic human epidermal growth factor receptor 2-negative (HER2-) breast cancer, with deleterious or suspected deleterious g BRCA1/2m, who received ≤ 2 prior lines of chemotherapy. Methods: In this open-label, phase 2, multi-center study in China (NCT03575065), pts with locally advanced/metastatic HER2- breast cancer with deleterious or suspected deleterious g BRCA1/2m triple negative breast cancer (TNBC cohort) or hormone receptor-positive (HR+)/HER2- breast cancer (HR+ cohort) were enrolled. Pts received pamiparib 60 mg orally twice daily in 28-day cycles. The primary endpoint was objective response rate (ORR; RECIST v1.1) by independent review committee (IRC). Secondary endpoints included duration of response (DOR) and progression free survival (PFS) by IRC, overall survival (OS), safety and tolerability. Results: 88 pts were enrolled (median age 45.5 years), 76 pts (TNBC cohort n = 55; HR+ cohort n = 21) had measurable disease at baseline per IRC. 60 pts (68.2%) received 1 or 2 prior lines of chemotherapy; 42 pts (47.7%) were treated with platinum previously. Median follow-up was 13.77 months (TNBC cohort, 10.87 months; HR+ cohort, 18.45 months). In the TNBC cohort: confirmed ORR was 38.2% (95% CI: 25.4–52.3); median DOR (mDOR) was 6.97 months (95% CI: 3.94–not estimable[NE]); median PFS (mPFS) was 5.49 months (95% CI: 3.65–7.33); median OS (mOS) was 17.08 months (95% CI:13.70–NE). In the HR+ cohort: confirmed ORR was 61.9% (95% CI: 38.4–81.9); mDOR was 7.49 months (95% CI: 5.55–14.75); mPFS was 9.20 months (95% CI: 7.39–11.93); mOS was not reached (NR; 95% CI 18.10–NE). ≥ Grade 3 treatment emergent adverse events (TEAEs) occurred in 54 pts (61.4%); anemia was the most common TEAE, occurring in 77 pts (87.5%). Dose reduction due to TEAEs occurred for 57 pts (64.8%); discontinuations due to TEAEs occurred for 2 pts (2.3%). Conclusions: Pamiparib showed a promising response in pts with locally advanced/metastatic HER2- breast cancer with a g BRCA1/2m. The safety profile of pamiparib was considered acceptable and was generally consistent with therapies in the same class. Clinical trial information: NCT03575065 .[Table: see text]

e15064 Background: Some targeted agents have shown variable safety profiles in Asian vs non-Asian patients with mRCC. A retrospective analysis of sunitinib in Korean patients with mRCC found increased incidence and severity of certain adverse events (AEs) compared with previous global trials (Hong et al. Cancer Res Treat. 2009;41:67-72). The open-label, expanded-access program REACT (RAD001 Expanded Access Clinical Trial in RCC; NCT00655252) provided everolimus, a mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) inhibitor, before its regulatory approval to 1367 patients with VEGFr-TKI refractory mRCC from 34 countries. Final results of REACT were recently published (Grünwald et al. Eur J Cancer. 2012;48:324-332). This analysis compared study end points in Asian patients with those in the total REACT population. Methods: The primary objective of REACT was to assess the safety of everolimus 10 mg/day, as determined by the overall occurrence of grade 3/4 AEs. Best overall tumor response was evaluated based on RECIST 1.0. Results: Baseline characteristics of Asian patients (n = 109; from South Korea, Taiwan, Thailand, and Singapore) were similar to those of the total study population. Median duration of everolimus exposure was longer in Asian patients than in the total population: 24.1 (range, 2.0-72.7) vs 14.0 (0.1-83.7) weeks. Overall incidence of grade 3/4 AEs was slightly higher in Asian patients than in the total population (70.6% vs 61.6%); common grade 3/4 AEs in Asian patients and the total population, respectively, included anemia (26.6% vs 13.4%), hyperglycemia (11.9% vs 5.5%), pneumonia (10.1% vs 4.2%), stomatitis (6.4% vs 5.4%), thrombocytopenia (3.7% vs 1.0%), and pneumonitis (3.7% vs 2.7%). More patients in the Asian population than in the total population had achieved disease control: partial response, 3.7% vs 1.7%; stable disease, 67.0% vs 51.6%. Conclusions: In this subanalysis of REACT, Asian patients treated with everolimus experienced a greater clinical benefit with a slightly higher incidence of AEs. These results are supportive of the use of everolimus in the Asian population.

7502 Background: SELECT investigated whether the addition of C to standard chemotherapy improved progression-free survival (PFS) in patients (pts) with recurrent or progressive NSCLC after failure of platinum-based therapy. Methods: SELECT was a multicenter, open label, randomized phase III trial. Per investigator choice, pts received either P (500 mg/m2) or D (75 mg/m2) on day 1 and then were randomized within each group to chemotherapy plus C (400/250 mg/m2) (initial/weekly) or chemotherapy alone. Therapy was given for up to six 3-week cycles; pts randomized to C continued weekly monotherapy until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. The primary objective was PFS for PC vs. P as determined by an Independent Review Committee (IRC). Secondary endpoints included overall survival (OS), objective response rate (ORR) and duration of response (DOR) by IRC, and safety. Preplanned subgroup analyses for epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) staining intensity by immunohistochemistry and histology were performed. Results for PC vs. P only are presented. Results: Between Jan 2005 and Feb 2010, 938 total pts were randomized. Baseline demographics were comparable between PC (n=301) and P (n=304): median age 64 years; male 60%; Caucasian 88%; KPS 80-100/60-70 84%/16%; squamous/non-squamous 24%/76%. Median PFS (months) PC: 2.89 and P: 2.76 (hazard ratio [HR] =1.03 [95% confidence interval (CI)=0.87-1.21]; p=0.76). Median OS (months) PC: 6.93 and P: 7.79 (HR=1.01 [95% CI=0.86-1.20]; p=0.86). ORR PC: 6.6% and P: 4.3% (odds ratio =1.59 [95% CI=0.78-3.26]; p=0.20). Median DOR (months) PC: 4.17 and P: 6.93 (HR=1.58 [95% CI=0.74-3.36]; p=0.24). There were no statistical differences in efficacy based on histology or EGFR staining intensity. More drug-related AEs/SAEs were observed in the PC arm, with differences mainly attributable to skin toxicities, GI (diarrhea/stomatitis), and hypomagnesemia. Conclusions: The addition of C to P did not improve efficacy in this pt population. Further biomarker analyses are planned. The safety profiles for C and P were consistent with existing data and no new safety signals were observed.

262 Background: Resminostat (4SC-201), an oral pan-HDAC inhibitor, is in clinical development in a variety of cancer indications. The SHELTER study aims to evaluate safety, tolerability and efficacy in HCC patients (pts) exhibiting progressive disease under sorafenib first-line therapy. Methods: Pts with advanced HCC, (BCLC B or C) are included in a multi-center, open-label, two-arm parallel group trial. Radiologic progression under sorafenib is determined acc. to RECIST by central review prior to study entry. For Arm A, dose escalation of resminostat and sorafenib is performed to determine the MTD. Resminostat is administered orally once-daily in a “5+9” schedule, consisting of 5 consecutive treatment days followed by a 9-day rest period resulting in 14 day cycles on dose levels of 200 (DL1), 400 (DL2) and 600 mg (DL3+4), either combined with continuously taken sorafenib at 400 (DL1-3) or 800 mg (DL4) (Arm A), or as resminostat monotherapy (600 mg, Arm B). Primary objective is to determine progression-free survival after 12 weeks (w) (6 cycles). Secondary objectives include safety, tolerability, tumor response, TTP, OS, PK, biomarkers. Results: To date, 39 pts were treated with 600 mg resminostat alone or on DL1-4 in combination with sorafenib. Up to now, no DLT occurred in 5 pts treated on DL4. Most frequently AE observed include CTC grade 1-2 gastrointestinal complaints such as nausea and vomiting and skin disorders like rash, pruritus and HFSR. CTC Grade 3-4 toxicity documented in SAE reports consisted mainly of no-hematological events and was mostly related to the tumor disease. Interim results revealed that 15 out of 27 pts (56%) assessed after 6 w of treatment, and 11 out of 24 pts after 12 w displayed SD. In one patient treated on DL2, SD persisted for more than 1 year along with good long-term tolerability. Conclusions: Preliminary clinical data show a favorable drug profile of resminostat either in mono or in combination treatment with sorafenib. No DLT was observed on the highest DL of the combination therapy up to now. Initial data on toxicity and therapeutic activity to overcome resistance to sorafenib are promising and will be updated for the meeting.

72^ Background: Gastric cancer (GC) is the second leading cause of cancer death in Japan as well as globally. Effective treatment of GC remains a therapeutic challenge. Although in the AVAGAST trial, bevacizumab was found to offer no survival benefit. Angiogenesis continues to be the standard treatment for GC, and thus, clinical trials on many anti-angiogenic drugs have been conducted. TSU-68 (orantinib) is an oral, angiokinase inhibitor targeting the vascular endothelial growth factor receptor 2, platelet-derived growth factor receptor β, and fibroblast growth factor receptor 1. The present study evaluated the progression-free survival (PFS) and pharmacokinetics (PK) of TSU-68 in combination with Japanese standard S-1 and cisplatin (S-1/CDDP) in patients with advanced GC. Methods: In this open-label, multicenter, randomized, controlled, parallel-group, phase II trial, patients were randomized to Arm A (S-1/CDDP) or Arm B (TSU-68 plus S-1/CDDP). All patients received oral S-1 (40-60 mg/m2) twice daily for 21 days followed by a 14 day rest plus intravenous CDDP (60 mg/m2) on Day 8, repeated every 35 days. In Arm B pts received oral TSU-68 (400 mg/dose) alone, twice daily by addition 35 days. The primary endpoint was PFS. Results: In total, 93 patients were enrolled. For Arm A [male:female ratio], n=47 [35:11]; Arm B, n=45 [30:15]; the respective median age was 63.5 and 62.0 years. The median PFS was 7.0 and 6.8 months in Arms A and B, respectively (HR, 1.23; 95%CI, 0.74 to 2.05; P=0.425); the respective response rates were 56.5% and 62.2%. The most common grade 3/4 toxicities were neutropenia (Arms A and B, 34.8% and 31.1%) and hemoglobin (Arms A and B, 26.1% and 48.9%). There were no differences in other toxicities between the 2 arms, both treatments were tolerated, and no treatment-related deaths were observed. In the PK study, although Arm B had a significantly lower plasma exposure to FT, CDHP, and Oxo compared to Arm A, the exposure to 5-FU was not different between the 2 arms. The exposure to CDDP in Arm B was significantly but slightly lower than that in arm A. Conclusions: Thus,TSU-68 plus S-1/CDDP therapy did not prolong PFS of patients with advanced GC as compared with S-1/CDDP. Clinical trial information: JapicCTI-101327.

1012 Background: Data from randomized trials comparing ET v ET-Bev in 1st line HR+/HER2- ABC pts showed controversial results. We performed a pooled-analysis of two randomized trials (LEA and CALGB 40503) to refine the Bev value in this patient population. Methods: We analysed 749 ABC pts with ET (letrozole-673, tamoxifen-39, fulvestrant 250mg-37) +/- Bev. Primary objective was to compare progression-free survival (PFS). Secondary endpoints were: safety; other efficacy (overall response rate [ORR], clinical benefit rate [CBR] and overall survival [OS]) in all pts; and efficacy in de novo pts and by previous endocrine-sensitivity (-/+ 24 months [mo] without recurrence under ET in adjuvant setting). Multivariable Cox models were fitted for PFS adjusted by study co-variables and controlled for study level differences. Results: Median age was 61 years (yr) (range: 25-87); 40% had de novo ABC and 60% recurrent disease (with disease free interval of ≤ 1 yr in 5%, 1-2 yr in 7% and > 2 yr in 88%); 82% of recurrent pts had previous ET sensitivity. Median PFS was 14.3 mo in the ET arm v 19 mo in the ET+Bev arm (HR 0.77; 95% CI 0.66-0.91; p<0.01). ORR and CBR with ET v ET+Bev were 40 v 61% (p<0.01) and 64 v 77% (p<0.01). OS did not differ between arms (HR 0.96; 95% CI 0.77-1.18; p=0.68). PFS for de novo ABC pts was 14.6 and 19.3 mo in the ET and ET+Bev arms (HR 0.82; 95% CI 0.63-1.06; p=0.13). PFS differed between arms for previous sensitive pts (HR 0.68; 95% CI 0.53-0.89; p=0.004) but not for ET-resistant pts (HR 0.73; 95% CI 0.4-1.3; p=0.29). Grade 3-5 hypertension (2.2 v 20.1%), proteinuria (0 v 9.3%), cardiovascular events (0.5 v 4.2%) and liver events (0 v 2.9%) were significantly higher in the ET+Bev arm (all p<0.01). Multivariable analyses showed age (p<0.01), PgR status (p<0.01), type of prior ET (p<0.01) and treatment arm (p<0.01) to be associated with PFS. Conclusions: The addition of Bev to ET increased PFS but not OS. Analyses to define subgroups with prolonged benefit from ET alone or ET-Bev are ongoing.

4513 Background: Sunitinib is an antiangiogenic agent indicated for the treatment of metastatic renal cell carcinoma (mRCC). Sunitinib is given in a 4 week on, 2 week off (4/2) schedule. Significant toxicities are observed in patients in the 3rd and 4th weeks of therapy. We hypothesized that a 2 week on, 1 week off (2/1) schedule would provide improved toxicity without compromising efficacy. Methods: A multicenter, single arm study was performed, with patients initiating sunitinib 50mg on a 2/1 schedule. Schedule and dose alterations were performed if grade > 3 toxicities were observed. The primary objective was to determine the percentage of patients who experienced grade > 3 fatigue, diarrhea, or HFS. The sample size of 60 patients was selected to ensure the upper bound of a 95% confidence would fall below standard schedule rate of 25%-30% if sample rate was 10%-15%, respectively. Secondary outcomes included response rate (RR), progression free survival (PFS) and dose reductions. Results: Between August 2014 and April 2016, 60 patients were enrolled, and 59 treated. Patients had a median age of 65.5 years (ranging from 45-92). 24% of patients (14/59) had grade 3 or higher fatigue, diarrhea, or HFS (95% CI: 13.6%, 36.6%). This is similar to the average of the 4 week on, 2 week off schedule of 25%-30%, and the lower bound of the confidence interval is in the center of our target rate of 10%-15%. Among events at least possibly related to study drug, patients were most likely to experience the expected events of diarrhea (75% with 5 grade 3 events), fatigue (71% with 6 grade 3 events), and HFS (54% with 3 grade 3 events). 22 (37%) patients responded (25.0%, 50.9%). Among patients with secondary endpoint data available, median PFS was 19.3 months (95% CI: 8.2, NR) and 33/56 (59%) of patients underwent dose reduction. Conclusions: Sunitinib administered in a 2/1 schedule in this study did not result in a lower rate of grade 3 or higher fatigue, diarrhea or HFS when compared to historical data from trials employing a 4/2 schedule. However, efficacy data showed robust response rate and a prolonged PFS, suggestive of long-term tolerability in patients receiving sunitinib on a 2/1 schedule. Evaluation of toxicity kinetics and patient quality of life is ongoing. Clinical trial information: NCT02060370.

BackgroundIn RECOURSE (, trifluridine/tipiracil significantly improved overall survival and progression-free survival (PFS) versus placebo in patients with pretreated metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC). PRECONNECT was designed to further characterise safety and clinical use of trifluridine/tipiracil.MethodsIn this ongoing, international, multicentre, open-label trial, patients with pretreated mCRC received oral trifluridine/tipiracil 35 mg/m2 twice daily on days 1–5 and 8–12 of each 28-day cycle. The primary endpoint was safety; secondary endpoints included PFS and quality of life (QoL).Results793 patients (median age 62 years) from 13 countries received trifluridine/tipiracil for a median of 2.84 months (IQR 2.64). Adverse events (AEs) were experienced by 96.7%; the most common (≥20% of patients) were neutropaenia, asthenia/fatigue, nausea, anaemia and diarrhoea. Grade ≥3 AEs occurred in 73.9% of patients, with the most common being neutropaenia (39.1% of patients), anaemia (9.8%) and asthenia/fatigue (5.0%). Median PFS was 2.8 months (95% CI 2.7 to 2.9). Median time to Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance status deterioration (≥2) was 8.9 months (range 0.03–14.72). There was no clinically relevant change from baseline in QoL.ConclusionsPRECONNECT showed consistent results with the previously demonstrated safety and efficacy profile of trifluridine/tipiracil, with no new safety concerns identified. QoL was maintained during treatment.Trial registration numberNCT03306394.

15055 Background: Currently, there is no strong evidence that systemic therapies provide a survival benefit for patients (pts) with hCC. However, preclinical data have shown that the novel epothilone patupilone has potent anti-proliferative activity against 8 HCC cell lines with intrinsic multidrug resistance. This exploratory study tested whether patupilone monotherapy has antitumor activity in HCC patients with intact liver function. Methods: This open-label, single-arm, multicenter, 2-stage phase II study was to enroll 24 pts in the first stage and 41 pts in the second stage, if = 3 complete or partial responses were observed in the first stage. Patients with unresectable and/or metastatic HCC (histologically confirmed) with = 1 measurable lesion were eligible if they had well-preserved hepatic function (Child-Pugh Class A) and life expectancy = 3 months. Patupilone was administered as a single IV infusion at 10 mg/m2 over 20 minutes every 3 weeks. Primary endpoint was objective response. Results: Twenty-five patients were enrolled, 24 were evaluable, and 1 violated protocol. The most common adverse events (AEs) suspected to be study-drug related were NCI CTC grade 1/2 diarrhea, fatigue, and vomiting. Grade 4 serious AEs included hyponatremia (2 pts [8%]), cardiac arrest (1 pt [4%]), diarrhea (1 pt [4%]), and gastrointestinal hemorrhage (1 pt [4%]). Grade 3 serious AEs included diarrhea (3 pts [12%]), hyponatremia (2 pts [8%]), deep vein thrombosis (1 pt [4%]), abdominal pain (1 pt [4%]), and hyperkalemia (1 pt [4%]). Most pts had dose adjustments or delays; 3 discontinued treatment. During the first stage, 1 pt had a confirmed partial response through 4 cycles, and 11 pts (44%) had stable disease for = 2 cycles with a median of 4 cycles (range, 2 to 8 cycles). Median progression-free survival was 3 months (range, 1 to 6 months), and 10 pts (40%) progressed within the first 2 cycles. The study did not progress to stage 2. Conclusions: Patupilone demonstrated an acceptable safety profile. Serious AEs were observed in a minority of patients, and most did not require treatment discontinuation. Patupilone demonstrated only modest antitumor activity in pts with HCC in this study. No significant financial relationships to disclose.

e19090 Background: Taxanes continue to play an important role in the treatment of advanced NSCLC. Paclitaxel poliglumex (XyotaxTM) is an ester α-poly-L-glutamic acid conjugate of paclitaxel allowing for solubility in aqueous solution, not requiring Cremophor or ethanol for intravenous administration or premedications. This is a non-randomized single-arm, single-institution open label dose-ranging study was designed to evaluate the combination of pemetrexed and paclitaxel poliglumex. Methods: The primary objective of this study was to evaluate the safety of this combination. Patients (pts) were enrolled in 2 different dosing levels. The first 6 received 135 mg/m2 paclitaxel poliglumex and 500 mg/m2 pemetrexed intravenously every 3 wks. None of the 6 pts experienced an initial dose limiting toxicity (IDLT) following 2 cycles of therapy and the paclitaxel poliglumex was then escalated to 175 mg/m2 with 500 mg/m2 pemetrexed. Eligibility included advanced NSCLC, one or more measurable lesions (RECIST), ECOG = 0–2, prior chemotherapy and radiation allowed, no grade 2+ peripheral neuropathy, no untreated brain metastases, and no active cardiac disease. Results: Twelve pts were enrolled, 6 pts to each dose level. Four of the pts were female, the median age was 65 years (48- 74), 11 had a performance status of 0–1, and only 1 pt received prior chemotherapy. There were no IDLTs at the first dose level, and there was one IDLT of infection with neutropenia at the second dose level. The median number of cycles completed was 5 (range 1–12 cycles). Aside from grade 3 fatigue in 2 pts there were no grade 3 or greater non-hematologic toxicities. Common non-hematologic toxicities included peripheral neuropathy, constipation, fatigue, and alopecia. Of the 12 pts, the best response was stable disease in 9 pts, 2 are without disease progression, and 6 pts are alive to date. The median progression free survival was 3.3 months (range 0.7–10.7 months). Conclusions: The combination of paclitaxel poliglumex and pemetrexed was well tolerated at the proposed phase II dose of 175 mg/m2 and 500 mg/m2. The PFS is encouraging and future studies of this combination are recommended. No significant financial relationships to disclose.
