4530 Background: Upregulation of the PD-1 pathway has been observed in BCG-unresponsive NMIBC, suggesting that pembro may be beneficial. Efficacy and safety of pembro in pts with HR, BCG-unresponsive NMIBC was evaluated in the single-arm phase 2 KEYNOTE-057 study (NCT02625961); updated results for pts with carcinoma in situ (CIS) with or without papillary tumors (cohort A) are reported. Methods: Pts with histologically confirmed HR, BCG-unresponsive CIS with or without papillary tumors who received adequate BCG therapy and were unable/refused to undergo radical cystectomy received pembro 200 mg Q3W for 24 mo or until recurrence, progression, or unacceptable toxicity. Pts who developed HR NMIBC or progressive disease during treatment were required to discontinue. Key end points were complete response rate (CRR), duration of response, and safety. Results: 102 pts (median age, 73 years; CIS alone, 63.7%; median number of prior BCG instillations, 12) had enrolled in cohort A as of enrollment cutoff. Median (range) duration of follow-up was 15.8 mo (4.6-28.2) ; 3-mo CRR was 40.2% (95% CI, 30.6-50.4) by central assessment. Among 41 pts who had CR at 3 mo, median CR duration was 12.7 mo (range, 0+ to 20.5+ mo); 75.4% had a CR duration ≥ 6 mo; 52.6% had a CR duration ≥12 mo (Kaplan-Meier method); 24 pts (58.5%) maintained CR at last follow-up, and 15 (36.6%) experienced recurrent NMIBC after CR; at the time of analysis, none progressed to muscle-invasive or metastatic disease. CRR was 44.6% for pts with CIS alone (n = 65), 41.7% for CIS with T1 tumors (n = 12), and 28.0% for CIS with high-grade Ta tumors (n = 25). Treatment-related adverse events (AEs) occurred in 66 (64.7%) pts; most frequent (≥10%) were pruritus (10.8%), diarrhea (10.8%), and fatigue (9.8%). Grade 3/4 treatment-related AEs occurred in 13 (12.7%) pts. Immune-mediated AEs occurred in 19 (18.6%) pts. Conclusions: Pembro continued to show encouraging antitumor activity in pts with HR, BCG-unresponsive CIS with or without papillary tumors and a safety profile consistent with that of previous experience. Updated data using additional follow-up will be presented. Clinical trial information: NCT02625961.

350 Background: The PD-1 inhibitor pembro has durable antitumor activity in pts with metastatic urothelial carcinoma. Upregulation of the PD-1 pathway has been observed in BCG-resistant NMIBC, suggesting pembro may benefit. Efficacy and safety of pembro in pts with HR, BCG-unresponsive NMIBC was evaluated in the single-arm phase 2 KEYNOTE-057 study; updated results for pts with carcinoma in situ (CIS) with or without papillary tumor (cohort A) are reported. Methods: Pts with histologically confirmed HR, BCG-unresponsive CIS with or without papillary disease, who received adequate BCG therapy and were unable/unwilling to undergo radical cystectomy received pembro 200 mg Q3W for 24 mo or until recurrence, progression, or unacceptable toxicity. Pts with HR NMIBC or progressive disease during treatment were required to discontinue. Primary end point: complete response rate (CRR); key secondary end points: duration of response and safety. Results: 103 pts (median age 73 years; CIS alone 71.8%; median number of prior BCG instillations 12) have enrolled in cohort A. 3-mo CRR rate was 38.8% (95% CI 29.4%-48.9%) by central assessment. Among 40 pts who achieved CR at 3 mo, 72.5% maintained CR at last follow-up (median 14.0 mo; range 4.0-26.3) and median CR duration has not been reached (range 0+ to 14.1+ mo). 80.2% of pts had a CR duration of ≥6 mo (Kaplan-Meier method). 10 (25.0%) experienced recurrent NMIBC after CR; at the time of analysis, none progressed to muscle invasive or metastatic disease. Treatment-related adverse events (AEs) occurred in 65 (63.1%) pts; most frequent were pruritus (10.7%), fatigue (9.7%), diarrhea (8.7%), hypothyroidism (5.8%), and maculopapular rash (5.8%). Grade 3/4 treatment-related AEs occurred in 13 (12.6%) pts; 1 death was considered treatment-related (colitis in patient inadequately treated with steroids). Immune-mediated AEs occurred in 19 (18.4%) pts. Conclusions: Pembro had encouraging activity in pts with HR, BCG-unresponsive CIS with or without papillary tumors and a safety profile consistent with that of previous experience. Updated data using additional follow-up will be presented. Clinical trial. Clinical trial information: NCT02625961.

5041 Background: Pembro was recently approved for the treatment of HR NMIBC based on results from the phase 2 KEYNOTE-057 (NCT02625961) study. Herein we present safety, efficacy, and posttreatment outcomes with > 2 y follow-up from KEYNOTE-057 cohort A. Methods: Patients with histologically confirmed HR BCG-unresponsive carcinoma in situ (CIS) with or without papillary tumors who received adequate BCG therapy and were ineligible for or opted out of radical cystectomy (RC) received pembro 200 mg Q3W for up to 2 y or until disease recurrence, progression, or unacceptable toxicity. The primary end point was complete response rate (CRR). Key secondary end points were duration of response (DOR) and safety. Results: Overall, 102 patients were initially enrolled, and 96 were included in the efficacy analysis. Median time from enrollment to data cut off was 28.4 months (range, 18.2-40.5). CRR was 40.6% (95% CI, 30.7-51.1), and median DOR was 16.2 months (range, 0+ to 30.4+). Among 39 patients with CR, 18 (46.2%) had a DOR ≥12 months. No patient’s disease progressed to muscle-invasive or metastatic bladder cancer while on study treatment. Median PFS and OS were not reached. At 12 months, PFS was 82.7% and OS was 97.9%. A total of 36 patients (37.5%) underwent RC after discontinuation from study treatment, which included 9 of 22 patients (40.9%) who had recurrence after initial CR and 27 of 57 (47.4%) nonresponders. Of the 36 who underwent RC, 33 (91.6%) had no pathological upstaging to MIBC and 3 (8.3%) had at least pT2 disease at time of RC. For subsequent treatments other than RC, 27 of 96 (28.1%) patients received additional intravesical therapy (eg, BCG, gemcitabine, or mitomycin), 21 of 96 (21.9%) underwent local procedures (eg, TURBT), and 3 of 96 (3.1%) received systemic therapy (eg, pembro). In 102 patients treated with pembro, treatment-related AEs (TRAEs) occurred in 67 (65.7%) patients; most frequently reported TRAEs were fatigue, pruritus, and diarrhea (10.8% each). Grade 3/4 TRAEs occurred in 13 patients (12.7%), and 21 patients (20.6%) experienced immune-mediated AEs. There were no grade 5 TRAEs. Conclusions: After > 2 y of follow-up, durable and clinically meaningful activity of pembro was observed in patients who had HR BCG-unresponsive CIS with or without papillary tumors and who were ineligible for or opted out of RC. Pembro did not seem to limit the opportunity for subsequent therapies, including RC. The safety profile was consistent with what is reported in the literature.

e16539 Background: A GOG trial comparing cisplatin/ifosfamide/mesna chemotherapy versus whole abdominal irradiation for FIGO stages I-IV carcinosarcoma (CS) showed an estimated median survival (MS) of 50 months for chemotherapy but high toxicity. This study investigates the efficacy and tolerability of a novel regimen using carboplatin AUC 5, ifosfamide 3 g/m2 and mesna 1 g/m2 (CIM) in both the adjuvant and metastatic setting. Methods: Retrospective analysis of women with CS treated from May 1997-May 2007 with CIM (group 1) versus other chemotherapy regimens (group 2). Toxicity was graded according to the Common Toxicity Criteria and MS estimated using the Kaplan-Meier method. Results: Of 51 eligible women (median age 71 years) 35 (69%) had stage 3 or 4 disease. 35/51 (69%) received chemotherapy; 2 with stage 1c disease received pelvic radiotherapy (pRT) alone whilst the remaining 14 were unfit for any treatment. Median follow-up for the treated patients is 45 months. 11/35 patients (31%) received CIM as first-line chemotherapy. Other regimens included: carboplatin (n = 14); carboplatin/paclitaxel (n = 3); carboplatin/epirubicin (n = 3); carboplatin/doxorubicin (n = 2); doxorubicin/ifosfamide (n = 1); cisplatin/ifosfamide (n = 1). 20/35 (57%) received adjuvant chemotherapy (AC) of which 8 received CIM; 11/20 patients also received adjuvant pRT. MS in the CIM AC group is 54.7 months compared to 37.4 months for other regimens. 3/8 patients (37.5%) in the CIM arm developed recurrent disease compared to 9/12 (75%) for other regimens. 4/16 patients received CIM as first- or second-line palliative chemotherapy. All patients responded of whom 2 achieved clinical and radiological complete response (CR). One woman subsequently relapsed and achieved a second CR with CIM. MS for all chemotherapy-treated patients is 54.7 months (group 1) versus 20.6 months (group 2) (p = 0.07). No patients in group 1 experienced any grade 3/4 toxicity and all patients completed the prescribed treatment. There were 2 unexpected treatment-related deaths in group 2, one of whom received carboplatin/paclitaxel and the other carboplatin/epirubicin. Conclusions: CIM appears to be efficacious and well tolerated in the treatment of CS and merits further investigation in clinical trials. No significant financial relationships to disclose.

506 Background: Pembro is an anti-PD-1 antibody with single agent activity in HER2– metastatic BC. I-SPY 2 is a multicenter, phase 2 platform trial which evaluates novel neoadjuvant therapies; the primary endpoint is pathological complete response (pCR, ypT0/Tis ypN0). We report current efficacy results, with final results at ASCO. Methods: Patients (pts) with invasive BC ≥2.5 cm by exam or ≥2 cm by imaging are assigned weekly paclitaxel x 12 (control) +/- an experimental agent, followed by doxorubicin/cyclophosphamide x 4. Combinations of hormone-receptor (HR), HER2, & MammaPrint (MP) status define the 8 signatures studied. MP low HR+ BC is excluded. Adaptive randomization is based on each arm’s Bayesian probability of superiority over control. Graduation by signature is based on an arm’s Bayesian predictive probability of a successful 1:1 randomized phase 3 trial with a pCR endpoint. We provide raw & Bayesian estimated pCR rates adjusted for covariates, time effects over the course of the trial, & serial MRI modeling for pts not yet assessed for pCR surgically. Results: 69 pts were randomized to pembro (HER2- subsets only) from Dec 2015 until it graduated in Nov 2016. 46 pts have undergone surgery (table); the other 23 have on-therapy MRI assessments. In 29 HR–/HER2– (TNBC) pts, pembro increased raw & estimated pCR rates by >50% & 40%, respectively; in 40 HR+/HER– pts, it did so by 13% and 21%. 5 pts had immune-related grade 3 adverse events (AEs); 1 hypophysitis & 4 adrenal insufficiency. 4 pts presented after completion of AC (149-179 d after starting pembro); 1 presented prior to AC (37 d after starting pembro). 7 pts had grade 1-2 thyroid abnormalities. Conclusion: Pembro added to standard therapy improved pCR rates in all HER2- BCs that meet I-SPY 2 eligibility, especially in TNBC. Immune-mediated AEs were observed; pt follow up is ongoing.

9507 Background: Brain metastases (BMts) are a major cause of morbidity/death in MEL. We report the first efficacy data in MEL patients (pts) with BMts who received NIVO+IPI in study CheckMate 204. Methods: In this multicenter US trial (NCT02320058), MEL pts with ≥1 measurable BMt 0.5-3.0 cm and no neurologic symptoms or steroid Rx received NIVO 1 mg/kg + IPI 3 mg/kg Q3W x 4, then NIVO 3 mg/kg Q2W until progression or toxicity. Pts with severe adverse events (AEs) during NIVO+IPI could receive NIVO when toxicity resolved; stereotactic radiotherapy (SRT) was allowed for brain oligo-progression if an assessable BMt remained. The primary endpoint was intracranial (IC) clinical benefit rate (complete response [CR] + partial response [PR] + stable disease [SD] > 6 months). The planned 90-pt accrual is complete; we report efficacy and updated safety for 75 pts with disease assessment before the Nov 2016 database lock. Results: Median age was 59 yrs (range 22–79). Median number of induction doses was 3; 26 pts (35%) received 4 NIVO+IPI doses and 38 pts (51%) began NIVO maintenance. Response data are reported at a median follow-up of 6.3 months (Table). The IC objective response rate (ORR) was 56% (95% CI: 44–68); 19% of pts had a complete response. IC and extracranial responses were largely concordant. Rx-related grade 3/4 AEs occurred in 48% of pts, 8% neurologic, including headache and syncope. Only 3 pts (4%) stopped Rx for Rx-related neurologic AEs. One pt died of immune-related myocarditis. Conclusions: In CheckMate 204, prospectively designed to investigate NIVO+IPI in MEL pts with BMts, NIVO+IPI had high IC antitumor activity with objective responses in 56% of pts, CR in 19%, and no unexpected neurologic safety signals. The favorable safety and high anti-melanoma activity of NIVO+IPI may represent a new Rx paradigm for pts with asymptomatic MEL BMts and could change practice to avoid or delay whole brain RT or SRT.

1000 Background: Pembrolizumab (pembro) monotherapy showed promising antitumor activity and manageable safety in patients (pts) with metastatic TNBC in KEYNOTE-012, -086 and -119. KEYNOTE-355 (ClinicalTrials.gov, NCT02819518) compared pembro + chemotherapy (chemo) vs placebo (pbo) + chemo for previously untreated locally recurrent inoperable or metastatic TNBC. Methods: Pts with ≥6 mo DFI were randomized 2:1 to pembro + chemo (nab-paclitaxel; paclitaxel; or gemcitabine/carboplatin) or pbo + chemo for up to 35 administrations of pembro/pbo or until progression/intolerable toxicity. Pts were stratified by chemo type (taxane vs gemcitabine/carboplatin), PD-L1 status (CPS ≥1 vs <1), and prior (neo)adjuvant treatment with same-class chemo (yes vs no). Dual primary endpoints are PFS (RECIST v1.1, blinded independent central review) and OS by tumor PD-L1 expression (CPS ≥10 and ≥1) and in all pts. PFS was estimated using the Kaplan-Meier method. Stratified log-rank tests were used to assess treatment group differences. HR and 95% CIs were based on a stratified Cox regression model. AEs were monitored throughout the study and graded per NCI CTCAE v4.0. Results: As of Dec 11 2019, median follow-up was 17.5 mo for pembro + chemo (n=566) and 15.5 mo for chemo (n=281). Pembro + chemo significantly improved PFS vs chemo alone in pts with CPS ≥10 tumors (Table), meeting one of the protocol-defined primary objectives. Although the boundary for a statistically significant benefit of pembro + chemo in pts with CPS ≥1 tumors was not met and formal testing in ITT was not performed, the pembro treatment effect increased with PD-L1 enrichment (Table). OS follow-up is ongoing. Grade 3-5 treatment-related AE rates were 68.1% with pembro + chemo (2 deaths) vs 66.9% with chemo (0 deaths); rates of grade 3-4 immune-mediated AEs and infusion reactions were 5.5% vs 0%. Clinical trial information: NCT02819518 . Conclusion: Pembro combined with several chemo partners showed a statistically significant and clinically meaningful improvement in PFS vs chemo alone in pts with previously untreated locally recurrent inoperable or metastatic TNBC whose tumors expressed PD-L1 (CPS ≥10). Pembro + chemo was generally well tolerated, with no new safety concerns. [Table: see text]

4040 Background: In the phase 2 CheckMate 142 trial, NIVO + low-dose IPI had robust, durable clinical benefit and was well tolerated as 1L therapy for MSI-H/dMMR mCRC (median follow-up 13.8 months [mo; range, 9–19]; Lenz et al. Ann Oncol 2018;29:LBA18). Longer follow-up is presented here. Methods: Patients (pts) with MSI-H/dMMR mCRC and no prior treatment for metastatic disease received NIVO 3 mg/kg Q2W + low-dose IPI 1 mg/kg Q6W until disease progression or discontinuation. The primary endpoint was investigator-assessed (INV) objective response rate (ORR) per RECIST v1.1. Results: In 45 pts with median follow-up of 29.0 mo, ORR (95% CI) increased to 69% (53–82) (Table) from 60% (44.3–74.3); complete response (CR) rate increased to 13% from 7%. The concordance rate of INV and blinded independent central review was 89%. Median duration of response (DOR) was not reached (Table). Median progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) were not reached, and 24-mo rates were 74% and 79%, respectively (Table). Nineteen pts discontinued study treatment without subsequent therapy. An analysis of tumor response post discontinuation will be presented. Ten (22%) pts had grade 3–4 treatment-related adverse events (TRAEs); 3 (7%) had grade 3–4 TRAEs leading to discontinuation. Conclusions: NIVO + low-dose IPI continued to show robust, durable clinical benefit with a deepening of response, and was well tolerated with no new safety signals identified with longer follow-up. NIVO + low-dose IPI may represent a new 1L therapy option for pts with MSI-H/dMMR mCRC. Clinical trial information: NTC02060188 . [Table: see text]

PurposeRadiation therapy (RT) with doses ranging from 24 Gray (Gy) to 40 Gy is a proven treatment modality for indolent orbital adnexal lymphoma (IOAL), but recently the use of low dose RT (LDRT, defined as 2 Gy x 2 fractions) has become a notable alternative. However, limited data exists comparing outcomes following LDRT to moderate-dose RT (MDRT, RT dose 4 – 36 Gy). We present a single institution retrospective analysis comparing outcomes of patients with IOALs following LDRT or MDRT.MethodsA total of 36 patients treated with 38 consecutive courses of RT were identified; LDRT was delivered for 14 courses and MDRT for 24 courses. Overall response rates (ORR) were recorded according to Deauville or RECIST criteria with a response characterized as a complete response (CR) or partial response. Local control (LC), orbital control (OC), and overall survival (OS) rates were estimated with the Kaplan-Meier method. RT toxicity was graded per CTCAEv5 and compared with the Fisher’s exact test.ResultsMedian follow-up time was 29 months (m) (range, 4-129m), and median MDRT dose used was 24 Gy (range 21-36 Gy). Overall response rates (ORR) were 100% (CR 50%) and 87.5% (CR 58.3%) following LDRT and MDRT, respectively. OS at 2 years was 100% and 95% for the LDRT and MDRT groups, respectively (p=0.36). LC rates at 2 years was 100% for both LDRT and MDRT groups and at 4 years was 100% and 89% for the LDRT and MDRT groups, respectively (p=0.56). The 4-year OC rate (including both ipsilateral and contralateral relapses) was 80% and 85% for the LDRT and MDRT groups, respectively (p=0.79). No patient required treatment with RT to a previously irradiated orbit. Acute toxicities were reported following 6 LDRT courses compared to 20 MDRT courses (p=.014). No Grade 3 or higher acute toxicities occurred in either group. Late toxicities were reported following 2 LDRT courses compared to 10 MDRT courses (p=0.147).ConclusionsLDRT produced similar ORR, LC, OC, and OS rates compared to MDRT with fewer acute and minimal late toxicities reported. Future multi-center studies with larger patient numbers are warranted to show significant associations.

470 Background: Novel agents are necessary to treat NMIBC to avoid recurrence and progression. This phase Ib clinical trial evaluated the safety and toleraibility of ALT-803, an IL-15 superagonist, plus BCG in patients with BCG-naïve NMIBC. Methods: This is a Phase Ib trial using the 3+3 design to evaluate intravesical ALT-803 plus BCG 50 mg in BCG-naïve NMIBC patients, who would normally be eligible for intravesical BCG alone. The initial dose of ALT-803 was 100 μg/instillation with 2 dose-escalations allowed (200 μg/instillation and 400 μg/instillation) if dose limiting toxicities (DLTs) were not evident. Patients received intravesical ALT-803 in conjunction with BCG weekly for 6 consecutive weeks (Induction Phase). Patients then had routine follow-up with cystoscopy and voided urinary cytology (VUC) every 3 months for 2 years equating to confirmatory response assessment. Negative cystoscopy, VUC and/or biopsy yielded a complete response (CR). When appropriate for high-risk patients, physicians and patients were encouraged to receive maintenance BCG alone as per common practice patterns. Results: No patient in 100 μg/instillation of ALT-803/BCG and 200 μg/instillation of ALT-803/BCG reported an AE. One patient in 400 μg/instillation/BCG cohort developed a urinary tract infection requiring delay of intravesical treatment by 1 week. No grade 3/4 toxicities were noted. All patients have completed therapy without DLTs. To date, 4 patients have 12 month follow-up and are CR. The remaining 5 patients have no evidence of disease. However, follow-ups are currently approximately 3 months. Corollary immune studies are still pending. Conclusions: Intravesical ALT-803 plus BCG was safe and tolerable in patients with BCG-naive NMIBC. Further evaluation in expansion cohorts in a phase II trial is currently underway. Clinical trial information: NCT02138734.

286 Background: Anti-PD-L1 immunotherapy has shown promising clinical activity in urothelial carcinoma (UC). We report on a planned update of efficacy and follow-up in patients (pts) receiving durvalumab for the treatment of locally advanced or metastatic UC. Methods: Pts received durvalumab 10 mg/kg Q2W up to 12 months (mo), unacceptable toxicity or confirmed progressive disease. Tumor PD-L1 expression was assessed using the validated Ventana SP263 assay (PD-L1 high = TC ≥ 25% or IC ≥ 25%). Primary endpoints were confirmed ORR by RECIST v1.1 with blinded independent central review (BICR) and safety. Duration of response (DoR) and overall survival (OS) were key secondary endpoints. Results: As of July 24, 2016 (data cutoff [DCO]), the primary efficacy population included 103 pts who were followed for at least 13 weeks (median duration of follow up 7.3 mo); 37% had ≥ 2 prior regimens; 97% had prior platinum treatment; 95% had visceral metastases; and 49% had liver metastases at baseline. As of the DCO, 21 pts (20.4%) had a confirmed response per BICR (including 5 pts [4.9%] with a complete response) and an additional 3 pts had an unconfirmed response. Responses were seen in both PD-L1 high and PD-L1 low/negative subgroups (Table). Responses occurred early (median time to response 1.4 mo) and were durable. Median DoR has not been reached. Of the 21 confirmed responders, 18 pts had an ongoing response, 16 pts had DoR ≥ 6 mo and 7 pts had DoR ≥ 9 mo. Treatment-related Grade 3/4 AE rates were low (5.2%; as treated population, n = 191); Grade 3/4 immune-mediated AEs (imAEs) occurred in 3 pts, and 1 pt discontinued treatment due to an imAE of acute kidney injury. Conclusions: Durvalumab administered at 10 mg/kg Q2W showed clinical activity and an excellent safety profile in pts with locally advanced or metastatic UC. Clinical trial information: NCT01693562.
