11049 Background: Tumors express IDO1, an intracellular enzyme involved in the degradation of tryptophan to kynurenine, in order to evade immunosurveillance. Epacadostat inhibits IDO1 and shifts the tumor microenvironment from an immunosuppressive state to an immune-stimulated state. Pembrolizumab previously demonstrated activity in select sarcoma subtypes. We performed an open-label, single-center, phase II study of epacadostat and pembrolizumab in patients with advanced sarcoma. Methods: Patients received the recommended phase II dose of oral epacadostat (100mg) twice per day and intravenous pembrolizumab (200mg/dose) every 3 weeks. The primary endpoint was best objective response rate (ORR) (complete response and partial response [PR]) at 24 weeks by RECIST 1.1. Secondary endpoints included adverse events (AEs), ORR by irRECIST, progression free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS). Correlative studies performed on pre/on-treatment biopsy specimens included PD-L1, IDO1, and kynurenine expression and characterization of tumor infiltrating lymphocytes by IHC, whole exome and RNA sequencing. Results: Twenty-nine patients were enrolled [median age 53 years (range, 24-78), 57% male, ECOG PS 0 83%]. Histological subtypes included leiomyosarcoma (17%), UPS (17%), myxofibrosarcoma (7%), liposarcoma (10.5%), EHE (10.5%), angiosarcoma (3%), “other” sarcoma subtype (35%). Patients were refractory to 0 (21%), 1 (38%), 2 (24%) and ≥ 3 (17%) prior lines of therapy. The most common ( > 20% of pts) grade (G)1 or 2 treatment related AEs (TRAEs) observed included fatigue (31%), rash (31%) and ALT elevation (24%). G3 TRAEs included AST elevation (10%), ALT elevation, anemia, hypophosphatemia and increased lipase each occurred in 3% of pts. Three patients discontinued therapy due to G3 immune mediated hepatitis. Among the 29 evaluable patients 1 (3%) confirmed PR (leiomyosarcoma), 13 stable diseases (45%) and 15 progressions (52%) were observed by RECIST 1.1. The median PFS was 8.0 weeks (two-sided 95% CI: 6.9 ~ 26.7) and the PFS rate at 24 weeks was 27.9% (two-sided 95% CI: 15.0% ~ 52.2%). The median OS was not estimable (two-sided 95% CI: 40.9 weeks ~ NE). The OS at 24 weeks was 85.2% (95% CI: 72.8%, 99.7%). Conclusions: Epacadostat in combination with pembrolizumab was generally well tolerated. Limited anti-tumor activity was observed among advanced sarcoma patients. Correlative analyses including determination of adequacy of IDO1 inhibition will be reported. Clinical trial information: NCT03414229.

Efficacy Analysis

7513 Background: L-MIND (NCT02399085) is an ongoing, open-label, Phase II study of tafasitamab (MOR208), an Fc-modified, humanized, anti-CD19 monoclonal antibody, plus LEN in ASCT-ineligible patients (pts) with R/R DLBCL. Primary analyses and 2-year efficacy results were previously presented; we report an updated efficacy analysis with ≥35 months follow up (cut-off: October 30, 2020). Methods: Pts were aged ≥18 years with ASCT-ineligible R/R DLBCL, had 1–3 prior systemic therapies (Tx), including ≥1 CD20-targeting regimen, with an ECOG status of 0–2. Pts received 28-day cycles (C) of tafasitamab (12 mg/kg IV), once weekly during C1–3, with a loading dose on Day 4 of C1, then every 2 weeks (Q2W) during C4–12. LEN (25 mg PO) was administered on Days 1–21 of C1–12. After C12, progression-free pts received tafasitamab Q2W until disease progression. The primary endpoint was objective response rate (ORR), assessed by IRC. Secondary endpoints included duration of response (DoR), progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS). Results: Eighty of 81 enrolled pts received tafasitamab + LEN and were included in the full analysis set (1 prior Tx, n=40; 2+ prior Tx, n=40). At data cut-off, the overall ORR was 57.5% (n=46/80), including complete response (CR) in 40% of pts (n=32/80) and partial response (PR) in 17.5% of pts (n=14/80) (Table). Kaplan-Meier estimates: median DoR=43.9 months (95% CI: 26.1–not reached [NR]), and NR in pts who achieved a CR (95% CI: 43.9–NR); median PFS=11.6 months (95% CI: 6.3–45.7), with median follow-up 33.9 months; median OS=33.5 months (95% CI: 18.3–NR), with median follow-up 42.7 months. There were no unexpected toxicities or new safety signals. Conclusions: Combination Tx with tafasitamab + LEN followed by tafasitamab monotherapy provided durable responses in pts with R/R DLBCL not eligible for ASCT, with a manageable safety profile. These long-term data indicate the potential of tafasitamab + LEN followed by extended tafasitamab monotherapy in achieving prolonged remission and survival benefit in this patient population, especially at first relapse.

5576 Background: Endometrial cancer (EC) is the most common gynecologic malignancy. Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) overexpression in EC correlates with poor outcome, thus targeting VEGF is a rational therapeutic approach. We have conducted a two-stage open-label phase II study in advanced EC with sunitinib, an oral tyrosine kinase inhibitor of multiple VEGF receptors. Methods: Eligible pts have recurrent or metastatic EC and have received up to 1 prior chemotherapy (CT) regimen for metastatic disease. Sunitinib is given at 50 mg daily (OD) for 4 consecutive weeks (wks) followed by 2 wks off. Dose could be reduced to 37.5 mg OD and then 25 mg OD in the setting of toxicity. Imaging is repeated every 12 wks. Primary objectives are objective response rate (ORR by RECIST) and rate of 6-month progression-free survival (PFS). If 1 or more responses occur in the first 15 evaluable pts, the study would continue to a second stage (total = 30 pts). Secondary objectives are time to progression (TTP), overall survival (OS), and safety. Results: We report the results of the first stage of this study. Sixteen pts have been treated (median age: 63; range 41–74) with 37 cycles of sunitinib (median 2; range: 1–7). Baseline ECOG PS was 0 (7 pts), 1 (8 pts), or 2 (1 pt). Histology was endometrioid (7 pts), serous (5 pts), clear cell (1 pt), or mixed/other (3 pts). Most pts had high-grade histology (G3: 8; G2: 4; G1: 2; GX: 2). Nine pts had prior adjuvant CT, 8 pts had 1 prior CT for advanced EC, 4 pts had prior hormones and 7 pts had prior radiotherapy. Partial response was achieved by 2 pts (ORR = 12.5%), and 2 other pts had a best response of stable disease; 3 of these pts remained progression-free > 6 months. Median TTP = 2.5 months (95% CI: 2.47-NR), and median OS = 6.2 months (95% CI: 5.1-NR). Grade 3/4 adverse events (AE) in >10% of pts were fatigue (7 pts, 44%) and hypertension (5 pts, 31%). Dose reduction was required for 11 of 16 pts (69%). Two pts were inevaluable after receiving <2 cycles due to AE (grade 4 hyponatremia; grade 3 fatigue) and 1 other pt has yet to complete 2 cycles. Conclusions: Sunitinib shows preliminary activity in EC. This trial will proceed to a second stage of accrual to further explore the efficacy and safety of sunitinib in advanced EC.

4122 Background: The mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) signaling pathway is involved in the pathogenesis of neuroendocrine tumors (NET). Everolimus (RAD001), an oral mTOR inhibitor, has antitumor activity in patients (pts) with advanced NET. In this open-label, multicenter, phase II study (RAMSETE), the safety and efficacy of everolimus monotherapy was evaluated in pts with advanced nonsyndromic, nonpancreatic NET. Methods: Pts with advanced (unresectable or metastatic), progressive, nonsyndromic, nonpancreatic NET received everolimus (10 mg/day) as monotherapy. The primary endpoint was objective response rate (proportion of pts with best overall complete response [CR] or partial response [PR] per RECIST v1.0) by central radiologic review. A secondary endpoint included progression-free survival (PFS). Results: By database soft lock (December 1, 2011), 73 pts from 16 European clinics received everolimus (median duration of treatment: 193 days). Fifty-five (75%) pts discontinued; reasons included disease progression (n=23), adverse events (AEs [n=23]), withdrawal of consent (n=4), death (n=3), and protocol deviation (n=2). In the per protocol population (N=60), 32 (53%) pts received prior antineoplastic therapy. The best response by central review was stable disease in 55%. By local review, 3 (5%) pts had a PR, with SD in 39 (65%) pts. Median PFS by central review was 185 days (95% CI: 158-255). Median PFS by local investigator review was 285 days (95% CI: 231-not estimable). 69 (95%) pts reported treatment-related AEs of any grade, including rash (n=28; 38%), diarrhea (n=20; 27%), mucosal inflammation (n=18; 25%), and decreased appetite (n=17; 23%). Treatment-related grades 3 and 4 AEs and serious AEs were reported by 27 (37%) and 18 (25%) pts, respectively. Conclusions: In this open-label trial of everolimus in pts with advanced, nonsyndromic, extrapancreatic NET, a high rate of disease stabilization was achieved after prior tumor progression with favorable median PFS. This study further supports efficacy of everolimus in types of NET other than those studied in RADIANT-3 (pancreatic NET) and RADIANT-2 (NET associated with carcinoid syndrome).

PURPOSE Despite the tissue-agnostic approval of pembrolizumab in mismatch repair deficient (MMRD) solid tumors, important unanswered questions remain about the role of immune checkpoint blockade in mismatch repair–proficient (MMRP) and –deficient endometrial cancer (EC). METHODS This phase II study evaluated the PD-L1 inhibitor avelumab in two cohorts of patients with EC: (1) MMRD/ POLE (polymerase ε) cohort, as defined by immunohistochemical (IHC) loss of expression of one or more mismatch repair (MMR) proteins and/or documented mutation in the exonuclease domain of POLE; and (2) MMRP cohort with normal IHC expression of all MMR proteins. Coprimary end points were objective response (OR) and progression-free survival at 6 months (PFS6). Avelumab 10 mg/kg intravenously was administered every 2 weeks until progression or unacceptable toxicity. RESULTS Thirty-three patients were enrolled. No patient with POLE-mutated tumor was enrolled in the MMRD cohort, and all MMRP tumors were not POLE-mutated. The MMRP cohort was closed at the first stage because of futility: Only one of 16 patients exhibited both OR and PFS6 responses. The MMRD cohort met the predefined primary end point of four ORs after accrual of only 17 patients; of 15 patients who initiated avelumab, four exhibited OR (one complete response, three partial responses; OR rate, 26.7%; 95% CI, 7.8% to 55.1%) and six (including all four ORs) PFS6 responses (PFS6, 40.0%; 95% CI, 16.3% to 66.7%), four of which are ongoing as of data cutoff date. Responses were observed in the absence of PD-L1 expression. IHC captured all cases of MMRD subsequently determined by polymerase chain reaction or genomically via targeted sequencing. CONCLUSION Avelumab exhibited promising activity in MMRD EC regardless of PD-L1 status. IHC for MMR assessment is a useful tool for patient selection. The activity of avelumab in MMRP/non- POLE–mutated ECs was low.

7106 Background: E7389, a synthetic analog of halichondrin B that was isolated from a marine sponge, has broad anti-proliferative activity at nanomolar levels and a unique profile of tubulin interactions. Methods: This is an open-label, single-arm, stratified phase II study of E7389 in patients with measurable, recurrent and/or metastatic NSCLC who progressed during or after platinum-based doublet chemotherapy. E7389 (1.4 mg/m2) was administered as a bolus IV on days 1, 8, and 15 of a 28-day cycle to 72 patients (cohort 1) in stratum I (55 taxane pretreated patients) and stratum II (17 taxane-naive patients) and on Days 1 and 8 of a 21-day cycle (cohort 2), providing an additional 22 patients in stratum I. The primary efficacy endpoint was objective response rate to E7389 monotherapy. Results: As of 9 December 2005, 94 evaluable patients received E7389. Nineteen tumors were classified as squamous cell carcinomas, 39 as adenocarcinomas, and 36 were large cell carcinomas or unclassified. The median number of cycles completed was 3. Fifteen patients completed 6 or more cycles and 75 patients underwent tumor assessments after cycle 2. Major toxicities related to study drug included myelosuppression, nausea, fatigue, dehydration, arthralgias, dyspnea, and peripheral neuropathy. Based on RECIST criteria, 6 partial responses (PR) were observed among 94 evaluable patients (PR rate = 6.4%, 95% CI: 2.8%, 12.8%). For 33 patients the best response was stable disease (SD rate = 35.1%, 95% CI: 25.5%, 45.1%). Disease control rate (PR + SD) was 41.5% (95% CI: 31.4%, 51.7%). For cohort 1, the 12-week progression free survival rate was 57.2%. As of 9 December 2005, median PFS time was 108 days (95% CI = 55, min-max = 1–239+). Cohort 2 is being followed to estimate their 12-week PFS. The correlation of beta tubulin isotype, stathmin, microtubule-associated protein 4 (MAP4) and tau protein mRNA expression with tumor responses is on-going. Conclusions: Based on this data, E7389 has been shown to be safe and effective in the treatment of NSCLC patients. Updated information and results of molecular correlations of responses will be presented. [Table: see text]

6023 Background: We present results of an open label phase II study of the mTOR inhibitor Everolimus in patients (pts) with RAIR TC. Methods: Pts with metastatic, incurable RAIR TC who had shown radiographic progression within 6 months prior to enrollment received Everolimus 10mg orally once daily. Responses were monitored by CT's every two months. The primary endpoint was progression free survival. Sequential biopsies were obtained in selected pts. Results: Enrollment to the differentiated TC (DTC) cohort finished in Jan 2013 and included 33 pts, among them 11 with Hurthle cell TC. Exploratory cohorts enrolled 10 pts with medullary [MTC] and 5 with anaplastic [ATC] with 2 added openings remaining for ATC. For the DTC cohort, median time on study to date is 10 months (mo) (<1-23+). 31 pts are evaluable at this time. PFS in the DTC cohort by Kaplan-Meier (K-M) analysis is 16.0 mo (95%CI 10-NR). Currently, disease stability for 6 and 12 mo or more was achieved in 18 and 10/31 pts, respectively, 11 pts remain on study. Median OS was not reached but 1 year survival by K-M analysis was 76%. One pt achieved a PR. 3 pts with DTC underwent sequential biopsies which revealed activation of autophagy while markers for apoptosis were not detected. Among 10 MTC pts, one achieved a PR and 9 pts had stable disease for 6 mo or more (6-33+). Among 5 ATC pts, 3 progressed, one has ongoing disease stability for 5 mo. One patient achieved a complete response that lasted for 18 mo and whole exome sequencing revealed somatic loss of function mutation affecting the Tuberous Sclerosis 2 (TSC2) protein, a negative regulator of mTOR activity [TSC2 (Q1178*) and FLCN (R17fs)]. Most common treatment-related adverse events were as anticipated and included fatigue, stomatitis and infections. Grade (gr) 3 events included infection 5, weight loss 3, leukopenia 3, thrombocytopenia 3, fatigue 3, hypophosphatemia 2, stomatitis 2, pneumonitis 1 and thrombosis 1pts. One pt had gr 4 hypercholesterinemia and one pt had gr 4 leukopenia. Conclusions: Everolimus has significant anti-tumor activity in pts with advanced TC. Activation of autophagy could account for high rate of disease stability. Sequencing may identify mechanistic basis and predictive markers for treatment response. Clinical trial information: NCT00936858.

4051 Background: Afatinib, an irreversible pan-ErbB kinase inhibitor showed anti-tumor activity against esophageal cancer in phase I trial. In this multicenter, open-label, single arm phase II study, we aimed to evaluate the activity and safety of afatinib in R/M ESCC. Methods: Patients (pts) who had ECOG PS 0-2 and had progressed on platinum-based chemotherapy for R/M ESCC were enrolled. Pts were treated with afatinib 40mg/day until disease progression, unacceptable toxicity, or patient’s refusal. Primary endpoint was objective response rate (ORR) per RECIST 1.1. The estimated sample size was 49, using a two-stage minimax design to evaluate incremental response rate from 5 to 15%. Secondary endpoints included progression-free survival (PFS), overall survival (OS), disease control rate (DCR), and safety profile. Additionally, we try to identify biomarker to predict efficacy of afatinib with target capture sequencing and gene expression profile as exploratory endpoints. Results: In a total of 49 enrolled pts (median age 60; range 44 -84), ORR and DCR were 14.3 % and 73.3%, respectively. With a median follow-up of 6.6 months, median PFS and OS was 3.4 months (95% CI 2.2-4.6) and 6.6 months (95% CI 5.2-8.0). Median treatment duration and duration of response were 2.8 months (range, 0.4-15.3) and 7.1 months (range, 2.5-13.9), respectively. Dose reduction and interruption occurred in 19 (38.8%) and 15 (30.6 %) pts. Treatment-related adverse events (TRAE) occurred in 33 pts (67.3%) with most common TRAEs being diarrhea (n=22, 44.9%) and acneiform rash (n=12, 24.5%). G3-4 TRAEs were rare, occurring in 7 pts (14.3 %). Conclusions: Afatinib demonstrated modest efficacy with manageable toxicity in platinum-resistant R/M ESCC patients. Given the modest response rate, identification of predictive biomarkers is essential for further clinical investigation of afatinib in R/M ESCC. Those biomarkers are being analyzed and will be presented in the conference (NCT02353936). Clinical trial information: NCT02353936. [Table: see text]

106 Background: CUP has a poor prognosis with a median survival of less than 12 months. Given the recent approval of immune checkpoint inhibitors in several cancer types, we performed a multicenter phase II study of nivolumab in CUP patients (pts). Methods: The main population of this study is CUP pts who were previously treated with more than one line of systemic chemotherapy. Previously untreated CUP pts were also enrolled for exploratory analysis. Pathological examination (including IHC), CT, FDG-PET, gastroscopy and colonoscopy and medical examination were mandatory for diagnosis of CUP before enrollment. CUP pts belonging to favorable prognosis groups were excluded from the trial. Nivolumab (240 mg/body) was delivered as an intravenous infusion every 2 weeks for up to 52 cycles until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. The primary endpoint was objective response rate (ORR) according to RECIST 1.1 by an Independent Endpoint Review Committee in previously treated pts. The secondary objectives include investigator-assessed ORR, progression-free survival (PFS), overall survival (OS), safety and the association between the efficacy of nivolumab and PD-L1 expression. Results: A total of 56 CUP pts, 45 previously treated and 11 previously untreated pts, were enrolled in this trial. The median age was 65.5 years, 22 pts were male. Median follow-up was 8.05 mo (range, 0.1 to 20.7 mo). Of 45 previously treated pts, 2 and 9 had an investigator-assessed complete response and partial response (ORR 24.4%, 95% CI: 12.9-39.5%), with a median PFS (mPFS) and OS (mOS) of 5.4 mo (95% CI: 2.6-6.9) and 15.1 mo (95% CI: 8.3-NR), respectively. Among 11 previously untreated pts, 1 pt had partial response (ORR 9.1%, 95% CI: 0.2-41.3%). The mPFS was 3.9 mo and the mOS was not reached in untreated pts (95% CI: 1.1-5.6, and 95% CI: 2.6-NR, respectively). Nivolumab demonstrated a mPFS of 5.1mo (95% CI: 2.7-5.6) and a mOS of 15.9 mo (95% CI: 8.4-NR) in an overall population. Immune-related adverse events occurred in 57% of overall pts with 5% of grade 3 or higher, and the most common were rash (27%), hypothyroidism (16%), and diarrhea/colitis (16%). No treatment related death was observed. Conclusions: In pts with previously treated and untreated CUP, nivolumab demonstrated durable antitumor activity with a manageable safety. Clinical trial information: UMIN000030649.

140 Background: Olaparib is a PARP inhibitor that has shown activity in relapsed gastric cancer (GC) when combined with chemotherapy. MEDIOLA assesses the efficacy and safety of a chemo-free combination of olaparib and durvalumab, an anti-programmed cell death ligand-1 (PD-L1) agent in patients (pts) with solid tumors, including relapsed GC (NCT02734004). Methods: Eligible pts had GC that relapsed following platinum-containing therapy. Pts received olaparib 300 mg PO BID for a 4-wk run-in to allow for serial biopsies, followed by combination olaparib and durvalumab (1.5 g IV q 4 wks) until progressive disease (PD) as measured by RECIST 1.1. Tumor measurements were taken at baseline, 4 wks and q 8 wks thereafter. Primary endpoints were disease control rate (DCR) at 12 wks, safety, and tolerability. The secondary endpoints included DCR at 28 wks, objective response rate (ORR), duration of response (DoR), progression-free survival, and OS. Biomarker endpoints included PD-L1 expression and evaluation of tumor infiltrating lymphocytes. Bayesian predictive probability design was used for statistical analysis. Results: Forty pts were included in the safety and 39 in the efficacy analysis. Among 39 pts, median age was 57 yrs (range 28–77). Nineteen pts (48%) had a grade 3 AE; three pts (8%) a grade 4 AE. Most common AEs were anemia, lipase increase, fatigue, dysphagia, hyponatremia, and alkaline phosphatase increase. Ten pts (25%) had immune-mediated AEs, most commonly rash. The ORR was 10%; two pts had complete response; two had partial response. Median DoR was 11.1 months. DCR at 12 wks was 26%. Further efficacy and biomarker data will be presented. Conclusions: The combination of olaparib and durvalumab was tolerable, with no unexpected AEs. All responses occurred after the addition of durvalumab and were durable, suggesting synergistic treatment effect of the combination in some pts. Furthermore, several pts with early PD showed unexpectedly long survival. DCR at 12 wks was below the target (70%) due to a high rate of early PDs following the olaparib run-in. To address the early treatment failures, an upfront addition of more aggressive therapies to the combination should be explored. Clinical trial information: NCT02734004.

Purpose We performed a phase II study of oral vorinostat, a histone and protein deacetylase inhibitor, to examine its efficacy and tolerability in patients with relapsed/refractory indolent lymphoma. Patients and Methods In this open label phase II study (NCT00253630), patients with relapsed/refractory follicular lymphoma (FL), marginal zone lymphoma (MZL), or mantle cell lymphoma (MCL), with ≤ 4 prior therapies were eligible. Oral vorinostat was administered at a dose of 200 mg twice daily on days 1 through 14 of a 21-day cycle until progression or unacceptable toxicity. The primary end point was objective response rate (ORR), with secondary end points of progression-free survival (PFS), time to progression, duration of response, safety, and tolerability. Results All 35 eligible patients were evaluable for response. The median number of vorinostat cycles received was nine. ORR was 29% (five complete responses [CR] and five partial responses [PR]). For 17 patients with FL, ORR was 47% (four CR, four PR). There were two of nine responders with MZL (one CR, one PR), and no formal responders among the nine patients with MCL, although one patient maintained stable disease for 26 months. Median PFS was 15.6 months for patients with FL, 5.9 months for MCL, and 18.8 months for MZL. The drug was well-tolerated over long periods of treatment, with the most common grade 3 adverse events being thrombocytopenia, anemia, leucopenia, and fatigue. Conclusion Oral vorinostat is a promising agent in FL and MZL, with an acceptable safety profile. Further studies in combination with other active agents in this setting are warranted.
