795 Background: Epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) antibodies, cetuximab (C) and panitumumab (P) have shown improvement in clinical outcomes for distinct molecular profiles in metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC). In the first line setting, EGFR targeting of left-sided tumors has shown favorable clinical outcomes when compared to right-sided tumors. Here we examined the efficacy of EGFR therapy in the treatment refractory setting as well as the impact of tumor bulk on clinical outcomes. Methods: A retrospective cohort of 72 patients (pts) with KRAS wild-type mCRC were identified who received either C or P in the late-line setting. Tumor measurements were performed per RECIST v1.1. Disease bulk was defined as single lesion with longest diameter or lymph node with short axis > 3.5 cm. Right colon primary was defined proximal to splenic flexure. Results: In pts with treatment refractory right-sided disease the response rate (RR) was 16.7%, progression free survival (PFS) was 3.7 months (mo), and overall survival (OS) was 14.0 mo. This was compared to left sided disease with RR of 26.0%, PFS 6.2 mo (p < 0.05), and OS 15.0 mo. In the non-bulky cohort the RR was 32.4%, PFS 7.9 mo, and OS 18.4 mo. In the bulky cohort the RR was 5.3% (p < 0.01), PFS 4.0 mo (p < 0.02), and OS 6.6 mo. In the right-sided non-bulky cohort there was a RR of 33% v. 0% in the right-sided bulky cohort. In the left-sided non-bulky cohort there was a RR of 32.3% v. 7.7% in the bulky cohort (p < 0.05). Conclusions: These data indicate that tumor bulk can predict clinical outcomes for anti-EGFR targeting. In the late line setting, pts with left-sided cancers overall trended towards improvements in clinical outcomes, consistent with prior understanding in first line setting. Despite a limited cohort size, response was observed in pts with non-bulky right-sided disease. There was limited-to-no benefit of anti-EGFR targeting with right-sided bulky disease. Left-sided non-bulky patient received the greatest benefit from anti-EGFR targeting. Future prospective studies of targeted therapeutics should incorporate tumor bulk and sidedness when assessing clinical outcomes and tumor biology.

491 Background: Infusional fluorouracil/leucovorin plus irinotecan-based regimen (FOLFIRI) with bevacizumab has been widely used as first-line treatment for patients with metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC). We prospectively analyzed the influence of uridine diphosphate glucuronosyl transferase 1A1 (UGT1A1) genotyping for irinotecan dose escalation in mCRC patients treated with combination of FOLFIRI and bevacizumab as the first-line setting. Methods: A total of 65 mCRC patients undergoing first-line treatment with FOLFIRI combined with bevacizumab were analyzed. Genotypes were performed by analyzing the sequence of TATA box of UGT1A1 of genomic DNA from the patients. Genotype and clinical parameters were compared by univariate analysis. The irinotecan dose is escalating form 180 mg/m2 to 260 mg/m2 in UGT1A1 6/6 or 6/7, and from 120 mg/m2 to 210 mg/m2 in UGT1A17/7. Results: The response rate was observed in 44 of 60 UGT1A1 6/6 or 6/7 (73.3%) in comparison to 1 of 5 UGT1A1 7/7 (20%) patients (p=0.013). The grade III-IV adverse events (AE) was observed in 4 of 60 UGT1A1 6/6 or 6/7 (6.7%) in comparison to 3 of 5 UGT1A1 7/7 (60%) patients (p<0.001), but it was not different between age of ≥ 70 and < 70 (p=0.559). Fifteen of 60 (20%) patients with UGT1A1 6/6 or 6/7 could be performed with liver or lung metastaectomy in comparison to none of 5 patients with UGT1A1 7/7. In addition, the disease control rate was significantly higher in irinotecan dose of ≥ 210 mg/m2 than irinotecan dose of < 210 mg/m2(p=0.015). Conclusions: UGT1A1 promoter polymorphism was found to be predictive of toxicity and efficacy in mCRC patients with first-line treatment of FOLFIRI combined with bevacizumab. The higher dose of irinotecan (≥ 210 mg/m2) may achieve a better disease control rate but do not increase the incidence of GR III-IV AE in mCRC patients of age ≥ 70 years.

777 Background: To test the cost-effectiveness of bevacizumab treatment compared with cetuximab plus irinotecan, fluorouracil, and leucovorin (FOLFIRI) as first-line treatment for patients with right-side metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC). Methods: A Markov model was developed to Chinese clinical practice. The model incorporated clinical and utility data from published literatures, resource utilization and unit prices based on local charge. The lifetime horizontal was used and sensitivity analyses were carried out to test the robustness of the model results. The impact of patient assistance program (PAP) was also evaluated in scenario analyses. Results: Baseline analysis showed that the addition of cetuximab gained additional 0.232 QALYs with more $60,371 relative to bevacizumab therapy, resulting in an ICER of $259,775 /QALY. When PAP was available, the incremental cost decreased to $24,161, which yielded an ICER of $60,371 /QALY, which indicated that the strategy was not cost-effective at a willingness-to-pay (WTP) threshold of 3 times the per capita GDP of China ($22,200/QALY). Sensitivity analyses found that the costs of bevacizumab was the most influential parameter. Conclusions: Bevacizumab treatment for right-side mCRC is not a cost-effective option in comparison with standard chemotherapy in Chinese context.

Results: Baseline analysis showed that the addition of cetuximab gained additional 0.364 QALYs with more $39,450 relative to bevacizumab therapy, resulting in an ICER of $108,287 /QALY. When PAP was available, the incremental cost decreased to $2,464, which yielded an ICER of $6,764 /QALY, which indicated that the strategy might be very cost-effective at a willingness-to-pay (WTP) threshold of 3 times the per capita GDP of China ($22,200/QALY). Sensitivity analyses found that the costs of cetuximab and bevacizumab were the most influential parameters. Conclusions: When PAP was available in Chinese context, cetuximab treatment is likely to be cost-effective versus bevacizumab therapy for patients with left-side mCRC.

Abstract Background Doublet chemotherapy in combination with a biologic agent has been a standard of care in patients with metastatic colorectal cancer for over a decade. The evidence for a “lighter” treatment approach is limited to mono-chemotherapy plus bevacizumab in the RAS unselected population. Anti-EGFR antibodies have activity as monotherapy or in combination with chemotherapy in RAS wildtype metastatic colorectal cancer; however their role in first-line treatment in combination with 5-fluorouracil monotherapy or when given alone has not been well studied. MONARCC aims to investigate this approach in an elderly population. Methods/design MONARCC is a prospective, open-label, multicentre, non-comparative randomised phase II trial. Eligible patients aged ≥70 with unresectable metastatic, untreated, RAS/BRAF wildtype metastatic colorectal cancer will be randomised 1:1 to receive panitumumab alone or panitumumab plus infusional 5-fluorouracil. RAS and BRAF analyses will be performed in local laboratories. Comprehensive Health Assessment and Limited Health Assessments will be performed at baseline and at 16 weeks, respectively, to assess frailty. The Patient Symptom Questionnaire and Overall Treatment Utility are to be undertaken at different timepoints to assess the impact of treatment-related toxicities and quality of life. Treatment will be delivered every 2 weeks until disease progression, unacceptable toxicity (as determined by treating clinician or patient), delay of treatment of more than 6 weeks, or withdrawal of consent. The primary end point is 6-month progression-free survival in both arms. Secondary end points include overall survival, time to treatment failure, objective tumour response rate as defined by RECIST v1.1 and safety (adverse events). Tertiary and correlative endpoints include the feasibility and utility of a comprehensive geriatric assessment, quality of life and biological substudies. Discussion MONARCC investigates the activity and tolerability of first-line panitumumab-based treatments with a view to expand on current treatment options while maximising progression-free and overall survival and quality of life in molecularly selected elderly patients with metastatic colorectal cancer.

e14166 Background: Bevacizumab (Bev) induced hypertension (HTN) may be a predictive biomarker of anti-tumor activity in patients with metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC) . We retrospectively assessed if significant rise in blood pressure (SRBP) [ ≥ 20 mmHg ] or any grade of HTN within first 10 weeks of treatment with bev is associated with improved clinical outcomes. Methods: Retrospective review of all mCRC patients, on or off clinical trial, treated with first line chemotherapy plus Bev (5 mg/kg Q2W or 7.5 mg/kg Q3W) at our institution from 2005-2010 was conducted .BP was measured before each treatment and graded according to CTCAE version 3.0.The median follow-up time of eligible patients was 19.6 months. Results: Of 50 patients eligible for the analysis, 20 patients (40%) developed significant rise in BP or HTN (SRH) whereas 30 patients had no change (NRH). There were no statistical differences between the two groups with respect to age, gender, ECOG status, number of sites of metastases, pre-existing HTN (55% SRH,37% NRH ; P=0.251) and first line chemotherapy regimen. Chemotherapy regimens used in SRH and NRH groups were 5-Fluoropyrimidine based (25% vs 23.3%), irinotecan based (40% vs. 36.7%) and oxaliplatin based (35% vs 30%). Four patients (20%) in the SRH group developed SRBP and other patients in this group developed G1-G3 HTN according to CTCAE v3.0.SRH group had improved median progression free survival (15.8 vs 6.2 months ; p<0.001) and overall survival (25.9 vs. 16 months; p=0.005). Overall response rate was higher in the SRH group (75% vs 26.7%; p=0.001). Conclusions: SRH developing within 10 weeks of commencing first line chemotherapy with bev correlates with improved outcomes in mCRC. These data need confirmation in prospective studies.
