614 Background: TAS-102 improved overall survival of metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC) patients with median progression free survival (PFS) of 2.0 months (RECOURSE trial). Subsequently, the combination of TAS-102 and bevacizumab has been shown to extend median PFS with 3.7 months (C-TASK FORCE). However, this study included patients with 2nd line and 3rd line chemotherapy. Our study was planned exclusively for patients receiving this combination as a 3rd line chemotherapy to investigate clinical impact of this combination beyond cytotoxic doublet. Methods: This phase II study was conducted in investigator-initiated, open-label, single-arm, multicentered manner in Japan. Eligible patients were 20-80 years old, and had to have an ECOG performance status of 0 or 1; had confirmed unresectable mCRC with histologically diagnosed adenocarcinoma; were refractory or intolerant to fluoropyrimidine, irinotecan, and oxaliplatin in the 1st and the 2nd line chemotherapy. TAS-102 (35 mg/ m²) was given orally twice daily on days 1–5 and 8–12 in a 4-weeks cycle, and bevacizumab (5 mg/ kg) was administered by intravenous infusion for 30 minutes in every 2 weeks. The primary endpoint was progression free survival (PFS), and the secondary endpoints were time to treatment failure (TTF), response rate (RR), overall survival (OS), and safety. Results: Between June 2016 and August 2017, 32 pts were enrolled. The median PFS was 4.5 months, and the median OS was 9.3 months. Partial response was observed in 2 patients. The most common adverse events above grade 3 were neutropenia (15 patients) followed by thrombocytopenia (4 patients). Treatment-related serious adverse events were reported in 1 patient. There were no non-hematologic adverse events above grade 3. No treatment-related deaths occurred. Conclusions: This is the first study which involves the combination TAS-102 and bevacizumab as the 3rd line chemotherapy in the setting beyond cytotoxic doublet for the patients with mCRC. This study met its primary endpoint PFS, which is comparable to the results of C-TASK FORCE study. This combination has a potential to be one of therapeutic options of the 3rd line chemotherapy for mCRC. Clinical trial information: 000022438.

Aim: We report real-world evidence with regorafenib in previously treated metastatic colorectal cancer from the French cohort of the international, prospective, observational CORRELATE study. Patients & methods: Patients receiving regorafenib according to French health authority approval were included. The primary end point was treatment-emergent adverse events. Overall survival and progression-free survival were secondary end points. Results: Two hundred and forty-two patients (61% male, median age: 66 years) were enrolled. The most common grade ≥3 drug-related treatment-emergent adverse events were hand–foot skin reaction (10.3%), asthenia/fatigue (9.9/1.2%) and hypertension (6.2%). Median overall survival and progression-free survival were 6.8 (95% CI: 6.3–7.6) and 2.8 months (95% CI: 2.6–3.0), respectively. Conclusion: The real-world safety and effectiveness data of regorafenib in metastatic colorectal cancer in France align with findings from Phase III clinical trials and the global CORRELATE population.

Abstract Background: A previous phase I/II C-TASK FORCE study of trifluridine/tipiracil plus bevacizumab for patients with heavily pretreated metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC) showed promising activity with an acceptable toxicity profile. This retrospective study aimed to investigate the safety and efficacy of trifluridine/tipiracil plus bevacizumab compared with trifluridine/tipiracil monotherapy in patients with heavily pretreated mCRC in clinical settings. Methods: Records of patients with mCRC refractory to standard therapies who initiated trifluridine/tipiracil plus bevacizumab from January 2016 to March 2018 or trifluridine/tipiracil monotherapy from June 2014 to December 2015 were retrospectively reviewed at our institution. Results: Totally, 60 patients received trifluridine/tipiracil plus bevacizumab and 66 received trifluridine/tipiracil monotherapy. All patients had previously received standard chemotherapy. Median progression-free survival (PFS) was 3.7 months [95% confidence interval (CI), 2.3−5.1] in the trifluridine/tipiracil plus bevacizumab group and 2.2 months (95% CI, 1.8−2.6) in the trifluridine/tipiracil monotherapy group [hazards ratio (HR) 0.69; 95% CI 0.48−0.99]. PFS rate at 16 weeks was 46.6% for the trifluridine/tipiracil plus bevacizumab group and 33.9% for the trifluridine/tipiracil monotherapy group. Although a relatively higher incidence of grade ≥3 neutropenia was observed in the trifluridine/tipiracil plus bevacizumab group than that in the other group (50.0% vs. 40.9%, p = 0.371), the incidence of febrile neutropenia was not high (3.3% vs. 7.8%, p = 0.444). Conclusions: In real-world settings, trifluridine/tipiracil plus bevacizumab prolonged PFS and helped achieve higher 16-week PFS rate compared with trifluridine/tipiracil monotherapy in patients with heavily pretreated mCRC with manageable toxicities. Trial registration: Retrospectively registered

3593 Background: The FIRIS study (Muro K et al. Lancet Oncol 2010;11:853–860) previously demonstrated the non-inferiority of Irinotecan plus S-1(IRIS) to FOLFIRI for metastatic colorectal cancer(mCRC), with progression-free survival (PFS) as the primary endpoint. We previously reported that IRIS plus bevacizumab(IRIS/bev) is very effective as first-line treatment (Komatsu Y et al. ESMO 2010). We now report the updated results of this study. Methods: Eligible patients had to have mCRC with a confirmed diagnosis of adenocarcinoma, an age of >20 years, ECOG performance status (PS) of 0-1, and no history of prior chemotherapy. S-1 40-60 mg twice daily p.o. was given on days 1-14 and irinotecan 100 mg/m2 and bevacizumab 5 mg/kg i.v. were given on days 1 and 15 of a 28-day cycle. The primary endpoint was safety. The secondary endpoints included overall response (OR), progression-free survival (PFS), and overall survival (OS). Results: The target number of 53 patients was enrolled as of March 2009. The results are reported for 52 patients with evaluable lesions. The clinical characteristics of the patients were as follows. The median age was 63.5 years (range, 48 to 82). The male:female ratio was 3:2. The performance status on the Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group scale was 0. In January 2012, on safety analysis, the incidence of grade 3 or 4 neutropenia was 27%. The incidences of other grade 3 or 4 adverse reactions were as follows: diarrhea, 17%; anorexia, 4%; stomatitis, 2%; hypertension, 21%; and gastrointestinal perforation, 0%. The overall response rate was 63.5%. Three patients had complete response. Thirty patients had partial response, 16 had stable disease, none had progressive disease, and 3 were not evaluable. Median progression-free survival was 17.0 months and median survival time was 39.6 months. Conclusions: IRIS/Bev is a remarkably active and generally well-tolerated first-line treatment for patients with mCRC. Randomized control trial comparing this regimen with oxaliplatin containing regimen(XELOX or mFOLFOX6 plus bevacizumab) is being planned.

610 Background: In our previous report, addition of bevacizumab (BV) to the FOLFOX4 regimen appeared to significantly improve response rate, progression-free survival and overall survival in first-line treatment for patients with metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC) (Suenaga M, et al. ASCO-GI 2011 [abstr 588]). Update results met median overall survival, and statistical analysis of survival was performed. Methods: An observational cohort study was carried out on all eligible patients scheduled to receive FOLFOX4 (n = 128) or FOLFOX4+BV (n = 85) between 2005 and 2007, 2007 and 2009, with a median follow-up time of 20.4 months vs. 30.2 months, respectively. Predefined efficacy endpoints were treatment characteristics, response rates, progression-free survival, and overall survival in the periods of time observed. Results: Median progression-free survival was 9.9 months (95% CI, 8.4-11.4) in the FOLFOX4- and 17 months (95% CI, 11.8-22.3) in the FOLFOX4+BV-treated patients (p=0.002). Median overall survival times were 20.5 months (95% CI, 16.9-24) and 38.8 months (95% CI, 32.9-44.8) in the two groups, respectively (p<0.001). In the ECOG PS 0 population, progression-free survival in the FOLFOX4 and FOLFOX4+BV groups was 11 months and 17 months with a hazard ratio of 0.63 (95% CI, 0.44-0.89) in favour of FOLFOX4+BV, similarly in OS with a hazard ratio of 0.53 (95% CI, 0.36-0.77). Subgroup population received 5-FU plus leucovorin (FL) as maintenance during oxaliplatin discontinuation due to adverse events had longer PFS or OS in both groups, though no significance. PFS were 14.7 and 21.6 months, and OS were 29 and 45.9 months, respectively. Secondary resection was performed more in FOLFOX4+BV (11.8%) than FOLFOX4 (3.9%) patients. Conclusions: These data indicate potential survival benefits from the addition of BV to the FOLFOX4 regimen as first-line treatment for mCRC. Maintenance using FL after discontinuation of oxaliplatin due to adverse events appeared to be an essential factor for better survival.

552 Background: Anti-Epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) antibody therapy is expected to be effective in treatment for metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC) with wild-type KRAS, but for mCRC with mutated KRAS, no salvage treatment has been established. We performed a phase II clinical study on 3rd-line chemotherapy combined bevacizumab with S-1, an oral fluorinated pyrimidine preparation containing a dihydropyrimidine dehydrogenase inhibitor, and bevacizumab for mCRC resistant to oxaliplatin and irinotecan. Methods: Subjects were mCRC patients with mutated KRAS, who showed aggravation even after 2 regimens with oxaliplatin and irinotecan. S-1 (80-120 mg/body) was administered for 4 weeks and withdrawn for 2 weeks. The dose of S-1 was decided according to the subjects’ body surface area. Bevacizumab (5 mg/kg) was administered on Days 1, 15, and 29. This treatment was provided until progression. The primary endpoint was disease control rate (DCR), and secondary endpoints were response rate (RR), median progression free survival (mPFS), overall survival (OS), and adverse event (AE). Results: A total of 31 subjects mutated KRAS were enrolled between August 2009 and July 2011. An independent review committee evaluated antitumor effects in eligible 29 of the 31 subjects in accordance with the Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST). Two subjects in whom antitumor effects could not be evaluated were excluded. The DCR was 69% (95% confidence interval [CI], 49.2-84.7%), RR 0% (95% CI, 0-12.3%), mPFS 3.7 months (95% CI, 2.7-6.5 months), OS 9.0 months (95% CI, 7.5-12.0 months), and the median observation period 9.0 months. In 30 subjects for safety evaluation, the incidence of Grade 3 or greater adverse events was 50%. There was no treatment-related death. Major adverse events were anorexia (Grade 3 or greater, 20%), diarrhea (Grade 3, 10%), and decreased hemoglobin (Grade 3 or greater, 16.7%). Conclusions: The results suggest that 3rd-line chemotherapy combined bevacizumab with S-1 is safe and may delay the progression of mCRC resistant to oxaliplatin and irinotecan with mutated KRAS.

Abstract Background: This study aimed to evaluate in clinical practice the efficacy and safety of polyethylene glycol conjugated granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (PEG-G-CSF) for preventing neutropenia in metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC) patients that received fluorouracil, leucovorin, oxaliplatin, and irinotecan (FOLFOXIRI) plus bevacizumab (Bev). Methods: We retrospectively analyzed mCRC patients who received FOLFOXIRI plus Bev between December 2015 and December 2017. We evaluated the efficacy of PEG-G-CSF for treating neutropenia, the overall response rate (ORR) according to the Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors version 1.1, progression free survival (PFS), overall survival (OS), and adverse events of FOLFOXIRI plus Bev based on the Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events version 4.0. Results: A total of 26 patients (median age 53.5 years) were included. The ORR rate was 65.3%, the median PFS was 9.6 months (7.2–16.9), and the median OS was 24.2 months (13.6–NA). Grade 3 or 4 neutropenia occurred in 53.8% of the patients and febrile neutropenia occurred in 7.7%. PEG-G-CSF was given to 77.0% of the patients, including prophylactically (n = 9) and after the development of grade 3 or 4 neutropenia (n = 11). No patients experienced grade 3 or higher neutropenia after the administration of PEG-G-CSF. In seven of the nine patients who received PEG-G-CSF prophylactically (77.7%), no dose adjustment was required.Conclusions: PEG-G-CSF was useful in preventing severe neutropenia in mCRC patients treated with FOLFOXIRI plus Bev.

Abstract The addition of rituximab to a variety of chemotherapy regimens for the treatment of patients with CLL has yielded promising results in phase II trials. The R-FC regimen demonstrated particularly high rates of overall response (ORR), complete remission (CR), progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) in relapsed/refractory CLL (Wierda, et al, JCO 2005). REACH was an open-label, multicenter, randomized, phase III study to evaluate the efficacy and tolerability of R-FC versus FC in relapsed or refractory patients with CD20 positive CLL. The primary endpoint of the study was progression free survival. Five hundred and fifty two patients from 17 countries were randomized (1:1) to receive either R-FC or FC. Rituximab was administered IV before the FC infusion for a total of 6 treatment cycles at intervals of 28 days (Cycle 1: 375 mg/m2 IV; Cycles 2–6: 500 mg/m2 IV). Fludarabine (25 mg/m2 IV/day) and cyclophosphamide (250 mg/m2 IV/day) were administered over 3 days for 6 cycles. Baseline demographics, disease characteristics, and prognostic factors were well balanced between the two arms. Median age was 63 years. All Binet stages were represented (A 10%, B 59%, C 31%). A median of one prior treatment had been administered, consisting of single-agent alkylator therapy (66%), purine-analogs (16%), or combination treatments (CHOP, COP, F-containing, 18%). Patients with prior FC combination treatment or prior rituximab were not eligible. Median observation time was 25 months. The primary endpoint PFS was significantly prolonged by median 10 months in the R-FC arm (30.6 months) compared to FC (20.6 months, p =0.0002, Hazard Ratio (HR) 0.65 [95% CI 0.51; 0.82]). Secondary endpoints EFS, TTNT, DR showed similar results. ORR were higher for R-FC vs. FC (70% vs. 58%, p=0.0034), due to superior CR rates (24% vs. 13%, p=0.0007). Multiple subgroups were analyzed applying a Cox-regression model: all Binet stages experienced similar incremental benefits in PFS (HR Binet A 0.75, B 0.65, C 0.61). Mutational status and cytogenetic subgroups remained prognostic and benefited from the addition of rituximab to FC (HR IgVH unmutated 0.62, mutated 0.7; del17p pos 0.75, neg 0.63; del13q pos 0.56, neg 0.77). Median overall survival was not reached for R-FC and was 53 months for FC, (p=0.29, HR 0.83). Of 47 patients that relapsed and were treated in the R-FC arm, 30% received rituximab again. Sixty-nine patients were treated at relapse in the FC arm, and 49% received rituximab. Grade 3/4 Adverse Events were higher in the R-FC arm (80%) vs. FC (74%), but serious adverse events were similar (50% vs. 48%, respectively). Grade 3/4 neutropenia and febrile neutropenia were only marginally increased for R-FC (42% and 15%) vs. FC (40% and 12%, respectively), the same was seen for thrombocytopenia (R-FC 11% vs. FC 9%). Grade 3/4 infections (R-FC 18%, FC 19%) were similar, and there was no difference in bacterial, viral, or fungal infections between the two arms. Grade 3/4 anemia was slightly increased in the FC arm (R-FC 2%, FC 5%). Slightly higher Fatal Adverse Events were seen with R-FC (13%) vs. FC (10%). Fatal SAEs were mainly due to infections, secondary neoplasms, and cardiac disorders. Summary and conclusion: In this large randomized trial in relapsed or refractory CLL, with 10 months improvement in PFS and a doubling of CR rates, R-FC was statistically significant and clinically meaningful superior to FC in the primary analysis. Improvement in PFS was seen across most subgroups, including all Binet stages. Fatal AEs were relatively high in both arms. However, overall, the addition of rituximab to FC in REACH showed a very favorable risk-benefit profile and did not reveal any new or unexpected safety signals.

607 Background: Anti-epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) antibody therapy showed to be effective in treatment for metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC) with wild KRAS. Especially, combination chemotherapy with anti-EGFR antibody plus irinotecan is expected more effective than anti-EGFR antibody alone, resistant to irinotecan. We conducted a phase II trial of panitumumab plus irinotecan for mCRC with wild KRAS resistant to fluoropyrimidine, oxaliplatin, and irinotecan in Japanese. Methods: Subjects were mCRC patients with wild KRAS, who showed resistance to fluoropyrimidine, oxaliplatin, and irinotecan and had measurable disease, ECOG PS 0-2. Panitumumab (6 mg/kg) plus irinotecan (same dose as prior irinotecan) was administered every two weeks. This treatment was provided until progression. The primary endpoint was response rate (RR). Secondary endpoints were disease control rate (DCR), progression-free survival (PFS), overall survival (OS), response duration, and adverse event (AE). Results: A total of 31 subjects were enrolled between July 2010 and July 2012. Median age was 64 years old (range 42-74). Nineteen patients had liver metastasis, 11 had lung metastasis, and 3 had lymph node metastasis. An independent review committee evaluated for efficacy in eligible 31 subjects in accordance with the Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) version 1.1. The RR of primary endpoint was 29.0% (95% confidence interval (CI), 14.2-48.0 %). DCR was 74.2% (95%CI, 55.4-88.1%) and median PFS was 5.6 months.(95%CI: 3.4-8.7) In 31 subjects for safety evaluation, the incidence of any Grade 3 or greater adverse events was 58.1%. Major adverse events of grade 3 were diarrhea (19.4%), rash acneiform (12.9%), fatigue (9.7%), anorexia (9.7%). A sudden death and an infusion related reaction were occurred. Conclusions: Combination chemotherapy with panitumumab plus irinotecan was demonstarated to be safe and more effective than Japanese single arm phase II of panitumumab alone for mCRC, resistant to fluoropyrimidine, oxaliplatin and irinotecan. This result in Japanese is equal to other reports of panitumumab plus irinotecan. Clinical trial information: UMIN000003819.
