10009 Background: Entrectinib is a CNS-penetrant oral inhibitor of TrkA/B/C, ROS1 and ALK tyrosine kinases. We report the efficacy of entrectinib in children with recurrent/refractory solid or CNS tumors. Methods: Patients ≤ 20y old with recurrent/refractory solid tumors were eligible. After determination of the recommended dose in all-comers, disease-specific expansion cohorts of CNS and solid tumors harboring target aberrations in NTRK1/2/3, ROS1 or ALK, and neuroblastoma (NBL), regardless of mutation spectrum, were enrolled. Response, assessed by Investigator, was classified as complete response (CR), partial response (PR), stable disease (SD) or progressive disease (PD) using RANO for CNS tumors, RECIST for solid tumors, and Curie score for NBL. Results: Between May 2016 and October 2018, 29 patients aged 4.9m–20y (median 7y) were enrolled and 28 were evaluated for response. Entrectinib was well tolerated. Dose limiting toxicities were elevated creatinine, dysgeusia, fatigue and pulmonary edema. The recommended dose was 550 mg/m2 daily. All responses occurred at doses ≥ 400 mg/m2. In CNS tumors (n = 6), all high-grade with gene fusions: 1 achieved a CR ( ETV6-NTRK3); 3 achieved a PR ( TPR-NTRK1, EEF1G-ROS1, EML1-NTRK2); 1 achieved an unconfirmed PR ( GOPC-ROS1); and 1 has yet to be evaluated ( KANK1-NTRK2). In extracranial solid tumors (n = 8), 6 had a fusion of whom 1 achieved a CR ( DCTN1-ALK) and 5 achieved a PR ( TFG1-ROS1, EML4-NTRK3, ETV6-NTRK3, KIF5B-ALK, ETV6-NTRK3). In NBL (n = 15): 1 achieved a CR ( ALK F1174L). Median duration of therapy was 85d (6–592d) for all patients; 56d (6–338d) for non-responders; and 281d (56–592d) for responders. Median time to response was 57d (30–58d). Conclusions: Entrectinib produced striking, rapid and durable responses in all children with refractory CNS and solid tumors harboring NTRK1/2/3, ROS1 or ALK fusions (11 out of 11) as well as in an ALK-mutated NBL. No responses were seen in tumors lacking aberrations in target kinases. These results support the continued evaluation of entrectinib as a targeted therapeutic in solid tumors with NTRK1/2/3, ROS1 and ALK fusions, especially in high-grade CNS neoplasms. Clinical trial information: NCT02650401.

Abstract The phase 1/2 STARTRK-NG trial is evaluating entrectinib, a CNS-penetrant oral inhibitor of TRK, ROS1 and ALK tyrosine kinases, in children with solid tumors, including primary CNS tumors. Eligible patients are ≤22y with recurrent/refractory solid tumors. The recommended dose was determined in all-comers, and then expansion cohorts of CNS and solid tumors with NTRK1/2/3, ROS1 or ALK gene fusions, and neuroblastomas (NBL) regardless of mutation spectrum, were enrolled. Investigator-assessed response was classified as complete (CR) or partial response (PR), stable (SD) or progressive disease using RANO (CNS), RECIST (solid tumors), or Curie score (NBL). By the clinical data cut-off, 01 April 2019, 32 patients were enrolled. As of 31 Oct 2018 (enrollment data cut-off), 29 patients were enrolled and included in the evaluable population. Median age was 7y (range 4.9m to 20y). Entrectinib was well tolerated; phase 1 dose-limiting toxicities were: elevated creatinine, dysgeusia, fatigue, and pulmonary edema. The recommended dose was 550mg/m2 daily; all responses occurred at doses ≥400mg/m2. In 6 patients with high-grade CNS tumors, all gene-fusion-positive, ORR was 100% (Investigator-assessed responses): 2 CR (ETV6-NTRK3, EML1-NTRK2); 4 PR (TPR-NTRK1, KANK1-NTRK2, EEF1G-ROS1, GOPC-ROS1). In extracranial solid tumors 6/8 had a fusion; of these, 2 achieved a confirmed CR (DCTN1-ALK, ETV6-NTRK3), and 4 achieved PR (ETV6-NTRK3, EML4-NTRK3, TFG1-ROS1, KIF5B-ALK). Central imaging review is being performed and will be provided. Duration of therapy ranged from 0.2 to 22.2 months for all 32 patients. In responding patients, time to response ranged from 1 to 8.3 months. In children with refractory CNS tumors harboring NTRK1/2/3 or ROS1 fusions, entrectinib produced striking, rapid, and durable responses. No responses were seen in tumors lacking target gene fusions. These results support the continued evaluation of entrectinib in solid tumors with target gene fusions, especially high-grade CNS neoplasms.

Updated entrectinib data in children and adolescents with recurrent or refractory solid tumors, including primary CNS tumors.

107 Background: The phase 1/2 STARTRK-NG trial (NCT02650401) is evaluating entrectinib, a CNS-penetrant oral inhibitor of TRK, ROS1 and ALK tyrosine kinases, in children and adolescents < 21 years old with recurrent/refractory solid tumors, including primary CNS tumors. Methods: After determining the recommended dose as 550mg/m2/day in all-comers, expansion cohorts with gene-fusion-positive CNS/solid tumors ( NTRK1/2/3 and ROS1) are being enrolled. Results: As of 1 July 2019 (data cut-off), 34 patients (4.9 months to 20 years old; median age 7 years) have been evaluated for response to treatment with entrectinib. Responses were classified as complete response (CR), partial response (PR), stable disease (SD), or progressive disease (PD) using RANO for CNS tumors, RECISTv1.1 for solid tumors, or Curie score for neuroblastomas. Responses in fusion-positive patients were assessed by blinded independent central review (BICR), and occurred at doses ≥400mg/m2. Best responses in patients with fusion-positive CNS tumors (n = 8) were four CR ( ETV6-NTRK3, EML1-NTRK2, GOPC-ROS1, and TPR-NTRK1), two PR ( KANK1-NTRK2 and EEF1G-ROS1), and two PD ( EML4-ALK and PARP6-NTRK3). In patients with fusion-positive solid tumors (n = 6) best responses were three CR ( DCTN1-ALK, ETV6-NTRK3, and ETV6-NTRK3), and three PR ( TFG-ROS1, EML4-NTRK3, and KIF5B-ALK). Responses (Investigator-assessed) in patients with non-fusion tumors (n = 20) were one CR ( ALK F1174L mutation), four SD, ten PD, and five patients were unevaluable or had no data. The objective response rate (defined as the total number of CR and PR) in fusion-positive patients was 86% (12/14) versus 5% (1/20) in non-fusion patients. Similarly, PFS was 17.5 months (95% CI 7.4–NE) in fusion-positive patients versus 1.9 months (1.8–5.7; p = 0.0002) in non-fusion patients. Most commonly reported treatment-related adverse events included weight gain (n = 14 [5 Grade 3/4]), elevated creatinine (n = 13), anemia (n = 13), nausea (n = 11), increased ALT (n = 10 [1 Grade 3/4]), increased AST (n = 10 [1 Grade 3/4]), decreased neutrophils (n = 9 [6 Grade 3/4]), and bone fractures (n = 7, of which 4 were treatment related). Conclusions: In children and adolescents < 21 years old, entrectinib has produced striking, rapid, and durable responses in solid tumors with target gene fusions, especially in high-grade CNS neoplasms. Clinical trial information: NCT02650401.

Abstract STARTRK-NG (phase 1/2) is evaluating entrectinib, a CNS-penetrant oral, TRK/ROS1/ALK tyrosine kinase inhibitor, in patients &lt;21 years with recurrent/refractory solid tumors, including primary CNS tumors. After determining the recommended dose, 550mg/m2/day, in all-comers, expansion cohorts with gene-fusion-positive CNS/solid tumors (NTRK1/2/3, ROS1) are being enrolled. As of 5Nov2019 (data cut-off), 39 patients (4.9m–20y; median 7y) have been evaluated for response, classified as complete (CR) or partial response (PR), stable (SD) or progressive disease (PD) using RANO (CNS), RECIST (solid tumors), or Curie score (neuroblastoma). Responses in patients with fusion-positive tumors were Investigator-assessed (BICR assessments are ongoing) and occurred at doses ≥400mg/m2. Best responses in fusion-positive CNS tumors (n=14) were: 4 CR (GKAP1-NTRK2, ETV6-NTRK3 [n=2], EML1-NTRK2); 5 PR (KANK1-NTRK2, GOPC-ROS1, ETV6-NTRK3, TPR-NTRK1, EEF1G-ROS1); 3 SD (BCR-NTRK2, ARHGEF2-NTRK1, KIF21B-NTRK1); 2 PD (PARP6-NTRK3, EML4-ALK); and in fusion-positive solid tumors (n=8) were: 3 CR (ETV6-NTRK3 [n=2], DCTN1-ALK); 5 PR (EML4-NTRK3, TFG-ROS1 [n=3], KIF5B-ALK). Responses (Investigator-assessed) in non-fusion tumors (n=17) were: 1 CR (ALK F1174L mutation), 3 SD, 10 PD, 3 no data/unevaluable. The objective response rate (CR+PR/total) in patients with fusion-positive tumors was 77% (17/22) versus 6% (1/17) in those with non-fusion tumors. All 39 patients experienced ≥1 adverse event (AE); the most frequent AEs included weight gain and anemia (both 48.7%); increased ALT, increased AST, cough and pyrexia (all 46.2%); increased creatinine and vomiting (both 43.6%); and bone fractures (n=10, in 9 patients). Entrectinib has produced striking, rapid, and durable responses in solid tumors with target gene fusions, especially high-grade CNS neoplasms.

TPS5600 Background: KIF18A is a mitotic kinesin motor protein that regulates chromosome positioning during cell division and is overexpressed in a subset of human cancers. TP53 mutant unstable aneuploid cancer cells with chromosomal instability (CIN) features are dependent on KIF18A motor activity to prevent lethal multipolar cell division. Preclinical data demonstrate that treatment with AMG 650; an oral, first in class, selective small molecule inhibitor of KIF18A may be safe and tolerable. We are conducting a first-in-human phase 1 study with AMG 650 in adult subjects with locally advanced or metastatic solid tumors with TP53MUT, triple negative breast cancer (TNBC), high grade serous ovarian cancer (HGSOC) or serous like endometrial cancers and other solid tumors. Methods: In this phase 1, multicentric, dose escalation and dose expansion study we evaluate the safety and tolerability of AMG 650 monotherapy in patients with advanced/metastatic solid tumors (NCT04293094). The main objective is to determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and/or recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D) based on emerging safety, efficacy, and pharmacodynamics (PD) data prior to reaching the MTD. Key inclusion criteria include the presence of measurable disease and diagnosis of advanced/metastatic triple negative breast cancer (TNBC), high-grade serous ovarian cancer (HGSOC), serous-like endometrial cancer or other solid tumors with documented TP53 mutations. In the dose expansion phase, participants with locally advanced or metastatic TNBC or HGSOC will be treated with the preliminary RP2D identified from the dose exploration part of the study. Primary endpoints include the incidence of Dose Limiting Toxicities (DLTs),Treatment-Emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs), Serious Adverse Events (SAEs), Treatment-related Adverse Events and the evaluation of the number of participants who experience a clinically significant change from baseline in vital signs, electrocardiogram and laboratory tests parameters. Secondary endpoints include Objective Response Rate, Duration of Response, Progression-free Survival, Clinical Benefit Rate, Time to Response, Time to Progression, Overall Survival (OS), Maximum Plasma Concentration (Cmax) of AMG 650, Time to Maximum Plasma Concentration (Tmax) of AMG 650 as well as Area Under the Plasma Concentration-time Curve (AUC) Over the Dosing Interval for AMG 650. Continuous monitoring of toxicity is conducted. The study began enrolling pts in March 2020 and is ongoing.

Abstract Background Radiotherapy may synergize with programmed death 1 (PD-1)/PD-1 ligand (PD-L1) blockade. The purpose of this study was to determine the recommended Phase II dose, safety/tolerability, and preliminary efficacy of combining pembrolizumab, an anti-PD-1 monoclonal antibody, with hypofractionated stereotactic irradiation (HFSRT) and bevacizumab in patients with recurrent high grade gliomas (HGGs). Methods Eligible subjects with recurrent glioblastoma or anaplastic astrocytoma were treated with pembrolizumab (100 or 200 mg based on dose level Q3W) concurrently with HFSRT (30 Gy in 5 fractions) and bevacizumab 10 mg/kg Q2W. Results Thirty two patients were enrolled (bevacizumab naïve, n = 24; bevacizumab resistant, n = 8). The most common treatment-related adverse events (TRAEs) were proteinuria (40.6%), fatigue (25%), increased alanine aminotransferase (25%), and hypertension (25%). TRAEs leading to discontinuation occurred in 1 patient who experienced a grade 3 elevation of aspartate aminotransferase. In the bevacizumab naïve cohort, twenty patients (83%) had a complete response (CR) or partial response (PR). The median overall survival (OS) and progression-free survival (PFS) were 13.45 months (95% CI: 9.46-18.46) and 7.92 months (95% CI: 6.31-12.45), respectively. In the bevacizumab resistant cohort, PR was achieved in 5 patients (62%). Median OS was 9.3 months (95% CI: 8.97-18.86) with a median PFS of 6.54 months (95% CI: 5.95-18.86). The majority of patients (20/26 pts; 77%) had tumor-cell/tumor-microenvironment PD-L1 expression &lt;1%. Conclusions The combination of HFSRT with pembrolizumab and bevacizumab in patients with recurrent HGG is generally safe and well tolerated. These findings merit further investigation of HFSRT with immunotherapy in HGGs.

12005 Background: C-1311 (Symadex) is the most active member of a new series of anti-cancer agents, the imidazoacridinones, specially designed compounds developed from research on the structure-activity relationships of existing cancer therapies. This clinical trial was designed to assess the safety profile of ascending doses of C-1311 and to determine the recommended dose when administered every 3 weeks (Q3W). Methods: Patients with advanced solid tumors refractory to conventional therapy were enrolled. The dose escalation scheme was divided into 2 phases with different schedules. Initially, C-1311 was given as a 1-hour daily infusion over 5 consecutive days. Following review of pre-clinical data, coupled with preliminary results of a parallel weekly study, a day 1 only schedule was explored. The maximum tolerated dose (MTD) is defined as the dose at which 2/3 or 2/6 pts experience a dose-limiting toxicity (DLT). The recommended dose (RD) is defined as the dose level below the MTD, confirmed by expansion of the RD cohort to 9 pts. Results: The first 5 patients were treated at doubling doses of 6, 12, 24, 48 and 96 mg/m2 on a schedule of 1-hour daily infusions over 5 consecutive days, repeated every 3 weeks; no DLTs were seen. The 6th pt received the same total dose as the 5th (480 mg/m2) but on day 1 only, following which a modified Fibonacci design with cohorts of 3 pts and 33% dose increments was utilized. Subsequently, pts received C-1311 at doses of 640 mg/m2 (3 pts), 850 mg/m2 (3 pts) and 1100 mg/m2 (5 pts); 2/5 pts treated at 1100 mg/m2 experienced an identical DLT (grade 4 neutropenia for ≥7 days with grade 4 thrombocytopenia), defining this as the MTD. The 850 mg/m2 cohort was expanded to confirm this as the RD. Neutropenia, thrombocytopenia, anemia and fatigue have been reported as drug-related grade 3 or 4 adverse events (AEs). Grade 1 or 2 AEs most commonly described as drug-related are fatigue, nausea, vomiting and diarrhea. Stable disease was observed in two patients with advanced malignancy. A pt had a stable disease over 8 cycles and one over 6 cycles. Plasma drug concentrations are linear and proportional to dose. Conclusions: A C-1311 dose of 850 mg/m2 administered once every 3 weeks offers a predictable and tolerable safety profile. [Table: see text]

9003 Background: Imatinib mesylate inhibits selectively specific activations of the platelet-derived growth factor receptor (PDGFR), c-KIT and BCR/ABL tyrosine kinases and is approved for the treatment of chronic myeloid leukemia and gastro-intestinal stromal tumors (GIST). This study evaluated efficacy of imatinib in solid childhood tumors. Methods: Phase II study of imatinib as single agent in children and adolescents with refractory or relapsing solid tumor expressing at least one of the receptors. Patients were to be treated at 340 mg/m2, a dose escalation allowed to 440 mg/m2 after 2 months in case of insignificant improvement. C-KIT, PDGFRα and β expression was determined on archive tissue sections by immunohistochemistry prior to study entry. Gene mutations, pharmacokinetics, pharmacogenetics, and positron emission tomography imaging were assessed. Results: 36 patients, 21 boys, median age 13.7 years (2.2–22.5 y), 12 with brain tumors, 6 fibromatosis, 8 mesenchymal/bone tumors, and 10 other solid tumors, including 1 GIST and 3 chordoma, were treated at 340 mg/m2 daily during a total of 168 months (median 1.9 month/patient, range 0.5–19). 18/36 expressed c-KIT, 10 PDGFRα, 21 PDGRβ; 12 expressed more than one receptor. Ten patients were escalated to 440 mg/m2 due to lack of efficacy. During the 1st month, 17 patients experienced mild toxicity (grade 1 and 2) related to study treatment: gastro-intestinal (n=22), face edema (n=7), asthenia (n=5), tumor induration (n=2), skin toxicity (n=2), thrombocytopenia (n=1). No partial or complete response was observed; 5 patients (2 fibromatosis, 1 GIST, 1 medulloblastoma, 1 pseudo-inflammatory tumor) experiencing durable stable disease have been under treatment for more than 12 months. Interesting tumor stabilization during 10 and 7 months, respectively, was achieved in a brain stem glioma and a renal carcinoma. Glucose uptake on 18FDG PET scan was reduced in a chordoma, although the child progressed and died due to disease. Pharmacokinetic and genetic data are currently evaluated. Conclusions: Imatinib as single agent was well tolerated, but—as used in our study —failed to show measurable anti-tumor effects according the standard criteria in the pediatric malignancies studied. No significant financial relationships to disclose.

Abstract Prognosis for pediatric patients with advanced relapsed/refractory (R/R) solid (including central nervous system [CNS]) tumors is poor; targeted therapies achieve response rates of only ~15%. Germ cell tumors and high-grade glioma (HGG) are the most common with KIT mutations; sarcoma and HGG are the most common tumors with platelet-derived growth factor receptor alpha (PDGFRA) mutations. Two-year overall survival is &lt;10% for pediatric patients with diffuse intrinsic pontine glioma, often driven by PDGFRA mutations. No KIT/PDGFRA targeted therapies are currently approved for pediatric patients with R/R solid tumors. The selective KIT and PDGFRA inhibitor, avapritinib, demonstrated potent activity against KIT activation-loop (exon 17), juxtamembrane (exon 11), and extracellular-domain (exon 9) mutants (IC50 &lt;2 nM), and PDGFRA activation-loop (D842V) mutants (IC50=0.24 nM). CNS penetration in preclinical models (brain-to-plasma ratios at steady-state ranging from 0.74–1.00) demonstrated potential for activity against CNS tumors. Avapritinib is approved for the treatment of adults with unresectable/metastatic gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GIST) harboring PDGFRA exon 18 mutations (including D842V) in the USA based on an overall response rate ³84% with 59% response durations &gt;6 months, and in the EU for adults with unresectable/metastatic GIST harboring a PDGFRA D842V mutation. The objectives of this 2-part phase 1/2 multicenter, open-label study, anticipated to enroll 31 patients from Q3 2021, are to assess avapritinib safety, preliminary efficacy, and pharmacokinetics in pediatric patients with KIT/PDGFRA-mutant solid R/R tumors. Eligible patients are aged 2 to &lt;18 years with no alternative treatment options. Part 1 will enroll ≥6 patients; primary endpoint is confirmed age and body surface area physiologically-based pharmacokinetic modeling dose to provide equivalent exposure to the 300 mg adult avapritinib dose. Part 2 will enroll ≥25 patients at the recommended modeled avapritinib dose from Part 1; primary endpoint is overall response rate. Avapritinib once-daily will be administered in continuous 28-day cycles.

3500 Background: LBH589 is a novel deacetylase inhibitor (DACi) which induces apoptosis of tumor cells at nanomolar levels. In this phase 1 study, we evaluated the safety and tolerability of LBH589 in pts with advanced solid tumors or non-hodgkins lymphoma. Methods: LBH589 was administered orally on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday (MWF) weekly. Western blots on peripheral blood lymphocytes were used to study histone acetylation (HA). Plasma PK profiles were analyzed on Days 1 and 15. Results: Thirty two pts have been treated (Median age 63 years; 18 M, 14 F). Pts received 15 mg (3), 30 mg (10), the dose-limiting toxicity level (DLT), or 20 mg (19), the maximum tolerated dose (MTD). Tumor types included: CTCL (10), renal cell (6), melanoma (6), prostate (4), hepatic (1), rhabodomyosarcoma (1), mesothelioma (1), colon (1), bladder (1), and parotid gland (1). Three DLTs were reported; G3 diarrhea and transient G4 thrombocytopenia at 30 mg and G3 fatigue at 20 mg. The most common adverse events were anorexia, nausea, fatigue, diarrhea and transient thrombocytopenia. Of the 1,057 ECGs, 1 pt (20 mg) had a QTcF of 503 msec, an isolated event after the first dose with no recurrence on continued therapy. The mean change in QTcF from baseline was < 10 msec during the first cycle in all cohorts. No increase in HA was seen at 15 mg, but did increase in 50% of pts at 72 hrs post dose in both the 20 mg and 30 mg cohorts. LBH589 was rapidly absorbed in plasma (Tmax 1.5 hr), then declined with a mean terminal half-life of 16 hrs. Cmax and AUC increased linearly with doses between 15–30 mg. Two cutaneous T- cell lymphoma (CTCL) pts achieved a complete response (5 and 7 months) and 4 CTCL pts attained a partial response (6.5, 8, 9 and 18+ months). Stable disease was achieved in 7 pts: CTCL-2 pts (2 and 3 months); RCC-2 pts (3.5 and 7 months); melanoma-1 pt (4 months), mesothelioma-1 pt (2.5 months) and parotid gland-1 pt (5 months). Fifteen pts progressed on treatment and 4 pts were not evaluable for response. Conclusions: At 20 mg MWF every week, LBH589 oral produced a sustained pharmacodynamic effect on HA for ≥72 hours post dose in 50% of pts. Cardiac data indicates no clinically-significant effect on QTcF. Preliminary evidence of tumor response was observed at this dose and schedule in CTCL pts. No significant financial relationships to disclose.
