310 Background: Optimal sequencing of approved therapeutic agents in mCRPC is not known. The standard approach, is to treat until resistance then switch. The PRINT trial explores the efficacy of treating mCRPC with a rapidly-cycling, non-cross reactive regimen as a way to more effectively treat an intrinsically heterogeneous disease, to delay or prevent drug resistance, and minimize treatment toxicity. Methods: Patients were treated with 3 consecutive treatment modules, each of 12 weeks' duration: 1. abiraterone acetate 1000 mg PO daily and prednisone 5 mg PO BID; 2. cabazitaxel 20 mg/m2 IV and carboplatin AUC 4 IV q3 weeks; 3. enzalutamide 160 mg PO daily and radium-223 50 kBq/kg IV q4 weeks (in those with bone metastases). After completion of this 9 month regimen, patients are followed on ADT alone. Primary endpoint is PSA or radiographic time to disease progression. Results: From 3/2017 to 10/2018, 28 of 40 planned men with mCRPC were enrolled, 19 (67.9%) with bone metastases. PSA response rates ( > 90%/ > 50%), compared to baseline, following each treatment module: 1. 50%/78.6%; 2. 50%/92.7%; 3. 64.39%/92.7%. Currently, 14 patients have completed the study regimen with median follow up of 3.6 months, 8 of whom continue without any additional therapy. Of the patients evaluable for primary endpoint, median time to PSA progression is 96+ days (95% CI 82-110+ days). The regiment was well tolerated, grade 3/4 adverse effects include: hyperglycemia (17.9%), diarrhea (7.1%), anemia (3.6%), fatigue (3.6%), neutropenia (3.6%), thrombocytopenia (3.6%). Measurable response and molecular correlate data will be presented. Conclusions: Treatment of mCRPC with a rapidly-cycling non-cross reactive regimen is feasible, demonstrates significant antitumor benefits, and is well tolerated. Further follow up will determine if PRINT delays progression compared with standard approaches. Clinical trial information: NCT02903160.

89 Background: Optimal sequencing of therapeutic agents in mCRPC remains debated, but the standard approach is to treat with one agent until resistance is met before switching. PRINT explores the efficacy of treating mCRPC with a rapidly-cycling, non-cross reactive regimen as a way to more effectively treat intrinsic heterogeneity, delay/prevent drug resistance, and minimize toxicity. Methods: Enrolled patients all received 3 consecutive treatment modules, each 12 weeks: 1. abiraterone acetate 1000 mg PO daily + prednisone 5 mg PO BID; 2. cabazitaxel 20 mg/m2 IV + carboplatin AUC 4 IV q3 weeks; 3. enzalutamide 160 mg PO daily + radium-223 55 kBq/kg IV q4 weeks (in those with bone metastases). Upon completion of the 9-month regimen, patients are followed on ADT alone. Primary endpoint for the study is PSA or radiographic time to progression (TTP). Results: From 3/2017 to 10/2019, 35 of 40 planned men with mCRPC were enrolled, 25 patients have completed the 9-month study regimen and evaluable for TTP analysis. With median follow up of 52 weeks, median time to PSA progression after therapy completion is 15.5 weeks (95%CI; 5-26.1+ weeks). PSA response rates show successive improvements with each sequential treatment module (Table). Six (24%) patients continue on post-study surveillance with ADT alone, two of which have remained off any mCRPC agents for over a year (64+ weeks, 54+ weeks). In patients needing to restart therapy, experience with efficacy and tolerability of each agent while on the study, has helped inform subsequent mCRPC drug selection. The study regimen is well-tolerated, with few grade 3/4 AE’s: hyperglycemia (14.3%), diarrhea (5.7%), anemia (2.9%), fatigue (2.9%), neutropenia (2.9%), and thrombocytopenia (2.9%). Conclusions: Treatment of mCRPC with a rapidly-cycling non-cross reactive regimen demonstrates significant antitumor benefits, with potential for long-term suppression of disease. Further longitudinal follow up will determine if PRINT delays progression compared with standard approaches. Clinical trial information: NCT02903160. [Table: see text]

54 Background: Despite primary treatment for localized PC, 20-30% of men experience a BCR, detected by a rise in prostate-specific antigen (PSA). Though 30% of these patients develop metastatic disease, the optimal treatment of men with BCR has yet to be determined. In this trial, we evaluate the efficacy of DOC, BEV, and ADT for men with BCR after local therapy for PC. Methods: 41 men with a BCR and PSA doubling time of ≤10 months (mos) were enrolled. Patients received 4 cycles of DOC (75 mg/m2) every 3 weeks, 8 cycles of BEV (15 mg/kg) every 3 weeks, 18 mos of a luteinizing-hormone releasing hormone (LHRH) agonist, and 15 mos of bicalutamide (50 mg daily) beginning after completion of DOC. The primary endpoint was the proportion of patients free from PSA-progression 1 year after completion of ADT. Secondary endpoints included PSA response, testosterone recovery, and toxicity. Results: Median follow-up was 27.6 mos. Median age at diagnosis was 58 years. Median PSA at diagnosis was 6.7 ng/mL, with the majority of patients (59%) having Gleason 7 disease. Most patients underwent radical prostatectomy +/- radiation therapy (n=36). At baseline, 33 men (81%) had a normal testosterone (> 240 ng/dL). The table describes the PSA responses for the entire cohort. 10 men (28%) had a normal testosterone 6 mos after completing ADT. 17 men (47%) had a normal testosterone 12 mos after completing ADT, of whom 5 (29%) had a PSA <0.2 ng/mL at that time. There were 15% grade 1, 34% grade 2, 39% grade 3, and 12% grade 4 adverse events (AEs). The most frequent grade 3-4 AEs included neutropenia (24%), febrile neutropenia (11%), and hypertension (9%). Conclusions: DOC, BEV, and ADT for BCR resulted in complete responses in 16 men (44%) 1 year after completion of therapy. Longer follow-up is needed to determine the efficacy of this regimen.

BackgroundPrevious data from cohort C of phase 1b/2 study KEYNOTE-365 (NCT02861573) showed that PD-1 inhibitor pembrolizumab + enzalutamide was well tolerated and showed antitumor activity in patients with abiraterone acetate–pretreated mCRPC. Updated data after a minimum of 22 months of follow-up are presented.MethodsPatients in the prechemotherapy mCRPC state who were intolerant to ≥4 weeks‘ treatment with abiraterone acetate or for whom this treatment failed, had progressive disease ≤6 months before screening, and had ECOG PS 0-2 were enrolled. Patients received pembrolizumab 200 mg IV Q3W + enzalutamide 160 mg orally QD. Primary end points were PSA response rate (decrease ≥50% from baseline), confirmed ORR per RECIST v1.1 by blinded independent central review (BICR), and safety. Secondary end points were time to PSA progression; DCR (CR or PR of any duration + SD or non-CR/non-PD ≥6 months) and DOR per RECIST v1.1 by BICR; rPFS per PCWG3-modified RECIST v1.1 by BICR; and OS.ResultsOf 103 enrolled patients, 102 were treated. Median age was 70.0 years (range, 43–87); 29.4% of patients were PD-L1+; 37.3% had RECIST-measurable disease. Median follow-up (time from enrollment to data cutoff) was 40.2 months (range, 22.3–49.9). Confirmed PSA response rate in patients with baseline PSA measurement (N = 101) was 23.8%. Median time to PSA progression was 4.0 months (95% CI, 3.5–4.4). In 38 patients with measurable disease, ORR was 10.5% (2 CR; 2 PR). Median DOR was 11.8 months (4.3 to 38.3+ months); 1 patient had a response ≥12 months. DCR for the total population was 33.3%. Median (95% CI) rPFS was 6.0 months (4.1–6.3); rPFS at 12 months was 30.1%. Median (95% CI) OS was 20.1 months (16.9–25.2); OS at 12 months was 76.2%. Treatment-related AEs (TRAEs) occurred in 92.2% of patients; most common (≥20%) were fatigue (39.2%), nausea (21.6%), and rash (21.6%). Grade 3–5 TRAEs occurred in 42.2%, most commonly rash (7.8%) and fatigue (5.9%). Four patients died of AEs: 1 death was treatment-related (unknown cause).ConclusionsAfter a minimum follow-up of 22 months, pembrolizumab + enzalutamide continued to show antitumor activity in abiraterone acetate–pretreated mCRPC. The safety profile of pembrolizumab + enzalutamide was generally consistent with individual profiles of each agent. There was a higher incidence than typically reported for the individual agents of all-grade (21.6%) and grade 3 (7.8%) rash, which resolved with standard-of-care treatment. The combination is being further evaluated in the phase 3 study KEYNOTE-641.AcknowledgementsMedical writing and/or editorial assistance was provided by Matthew Grzywacz, PhD, of ApotheCom (Yardley, PA, USA).

5029 Background: Pembro had activity as monotherapy in pretreated advanced mCRPC. Data are presented here from cohort B (pembro + docetaxel/prednisone) of KEYNOTE-365 (NCT02861573), a phase 1b/2 umbrella study to test combinations in mCRPC. Methods: Pts who progressed on or became intolerant to ≥4 wk of abi or enza in the prechemotherapy mCRPC state and progressed within 6 mo before screening were eligible. Pts received pembro 200 mg IV with docetaxel 75 mg/m2 IV Q3W plus prednisone 5 mg orally twice daily. The primary end points were safety and PSA response rate (confirmed PSA decrease ≥50%). Key secondary end points were investigator-determined ORR (RECIST v1.1), disease control rate (DCR: CR+PR+SD ≥6 mo), time to PSA progression, rPFS, and OS. Results: 72 pts (median age, 68 y; visceral disease, 36%; measurable disease, 50%) began pembro + docetaxel. Median (95% CI) follow-up was 10 (8-12) mo. Efficacy is outlined in the table. Treatment-related AEs occurred in 69 (96%) pts; most frequent (≥30%) were alopecia (43%), fatigue (40%), and diarrhea (39%). Grade 3-5 treatment-related AEs occurred in 27 (38%) pts, including 2 deaths from treatment-related AEs (pneumonitis). Most commonly reported immune-mediated AEs were infusion-related reactions (11%) and colitis (10%). Conclusions: Pembro + docetaxel/prednisone has activity in pts with mCRPC who previously progressed on second-generation hormone therapy. AEs were considered mild for the treatment combination.

71 Background: Galeterone is a first-in-class multitargeted oral steroid analog; it suppresses prostate cancer by a combination of AR modulation (antagonism and degradation) and CYP17 inhibition. Safety and proof of concept of galeterone in CRPC was assessed in ARMOR1. Galeterone was reformulated by spray dry dispersion technology (SDD) to optimize PK and remove food effect. ARMOR2 (NCT 01709734) is an open label, 2-part phase 2 trial that evaluates safety and efficacy of SDD galeterone in 4 populations of CRPC patients. These results report Part 1. Methods: Objectives of Part 1: confirm dose equivalence of SDD formulation with evaluation of PK, safety and PSA response. Metastatic (M1) and non-metastatic (M0) treatment naïve CRPC pts enrolled to groups of 1,700, 2,550 or 3,400 mg PO daily. An abiraterone refractory (Abi-R) group of 3 patients opened at 2,550mg. Results: 28 were enrolled in part 1. Safety: All groups were safe by IMC assessment. There were 4 grade 3 adverse events. 2 were unrelated to study drug. 2 had transient G3 ALT elevations (did not recur with rechallenge). There was no AME: supplemental steroids were not required. G4 angioedema occurred in a pt receiving lisinopril (known association with angioedema). Efficacy: PSA response was improved compared to ARMOR1 (AACR 2012. Taplin et al abstract: CT-07). At early follow up Abi-R pts showed improvements in PSA with 1 PSA30% response, 2 with stablized PSA (decline in PSA-V from +0.44 to -0.39 ng/day). Conclusions: Galeterone in SDD formulation is tolerated at doses up to 3,400mg daily. SDD galeterone provides improved PSA response and durability vs. prior formulation. There is evidence of activity in abiraterone refractory patients. Clinical trial information: 01709734. [Table: see text]

e16032 Background: Metronomic oral CTX and C has demonstrated activity and a favourable toxicity profile in CRCP. Combination of such strategy with the standard DP could be of interest. Methods: Pts with CRPC received D 60 mg/sqm iv day 1 every 3 weeks up to 12 cycles and from day 2 continuously: P 5 mg po BID, CTX 50 mg po daily, and C 200 mg po BID. Primary objective is the percentage of pts free of progression at 6 months; secondary are: PSA levels decrease ≥ 50%, objective responses (RECIST), toxicities (NCI-CTC criteria) survival and pharmacodynamic evaluations. Results: To date 29 pts have been enrolled. Main pts characteristics are: median age 72 years (52–78 years), median PS 0 (0–2), median baseline PSA level 38,8 ng/mL (2.5–1309 ng/mL); main sites of disease: bone 23 pts (79%), lymphnodes 6 pts (21%), liver 1 pt (3,5%). Twenty-nine pts are evaluable for toxicity whereas 28 for PSA response (1 pt abandoned the study due to allergic reaction after first D administration). Median number of D cycles delivered is 10 (1–12) and median duration of metronomic CTX plus P and C is 224 days (35–874 days). Main grade 3 side-effects are: neutropenia (2 pt; 7%), thrombocytopenia, diarrhoea, stomatitis and onycholysis (1 pt; 3.5%). No grade 4 toxicities have been observed.The rate of pts free of progression at 6 months is 80%. Overall 18 pts (64%) showed a PSA decrease ≥ 50% and 23 pts (82%) showed any PSA decrease from baseline (range: 4%-99%of decrease). Four pts are evaluable according to RECIST criteria: we observed 1 CR, 2 SD and 1 PD. At a median follow up of 12,4 months median time to PSA progression is 11.6 months (95% CI 8,3–15). Conclusions: Metronomic CTX plus C in combination with DP is a feasible and tolerable regimen with a promising preliminary activity. The evaluation of plasma levels of thrombospondin-1 (TSP-1), VEGF, sVEGFR-2, VE-cadherin mRNA, and the expression of TSP-1 and VEGF in peripheral blood mononuclear cells, as potential surrogated markers of antiangiogenic activity of the combination, is ongoing. No significant financial relationships to disclose.

153 Background: Docetaxel (D) remains the standard first cytotoxic therapy in mCRPC. Given its mechanism of action, acceptable toxicity profile and simple administration, SU had potential as maintenance therapy for mCRPC. In this multicenter study, we evaluated the tolerability and efficacy of SU monotherapy in patients (pts) with mCRPC who have responded to D. Methods: Pts withmCRPC and responding/stable disease at the time of D completion were enrolled in this multicentre trial. Pts received 50mg of SU daily on 4/2 week on/off cycles. The primary endpoint was progression-free survival (PFS), defined on the basis of RECIST criteria and worsening disease-related symptoms requiring further therapy. Because the effect of SU on PSA is not well known, PSA progression alone was not considered disease progression. PFS of 180 days was considered to be a clinically meaningful threshold for recommending further study of SU. PSA response was a secondary endpoint. The threshold for PSA-progression (PSA-P) was defined as a 25% increase in PSA over baseline. Results: Twenty-three pts were enrolled and treated. Mean age was 66.5 years (48-78). ECOG scores of 0, 1, and 2 were reported for 9, 13 and 1 pts respectively. Mean number of prior cycles of D was 8.6 (4-12). A total of 92 cycles of SU were administered; a mean of 4 per pt (1-11). Mean follow-up was 5.4 months (0.6-15). A total of 479 adverse events (AE) were recorded, of which 88% were Grade 1-2 and 12% were Grade 3-4. The AE were of a type and severity expected for SU. Three Grade 4s occurred, consisting of hepatitis, myelosuppression, and pneumonia. Median PFS was 133 days (95% CI: 48-154). Most pts had immediate PSA increases without evidence of disease progression, with the mean increases in PSA over baseline being 197%, 342%, and 1437% in Cycles 1, 2, and 3, respectively (p<0.05). Conclusions: Although SU was well tolerated as maintenance therapy with predictable side-effects, median PFS was lower than the predefined threshold of 180 days. PSA values were not informative as significant increases were observed as early as Cycle 2. This agent is not considered worthy of further investigation in this setting of maintenance therapy. Clinical trial information: NCT00550810.

152 Background: Metastatic PC patients with a poor response to initial androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) as reflected by a PSA > 4 ng/ml after 7 months of ADT have a poor prognosis. In the S9346 trial, about 25% of all enrolled patients had a PSA > 4 ng/ml after 7 months of ADT with a subsequent median survival (OS) of 13 months. S1014 examined the efficacy of AA in this setting. Methods: Eligible patients with metastatic PC and a PSA of > 4ng/ml between 6-12 months after starting ADT were treated with 1,000 mg of AA daily + 5 mg of prednisone twice daily. PSA could be rising or falling at the time of enrollment, but had to be > 4 ng/ml. No chemotherapy or secondary hormonal therapies were allowed, except in patients receiving an anti-androgen at the time of enrollment, who were continued on this therapy. The primary endpoint was a PSA of ≤ 0.2ng/ml within 12 months of starting AA. The null hypothesis was a 5% rate and alternative was 20%, requiring 6 or more patients with PSA < 0.2 ng/ml to conclude the regimen is promising (one-sided α=0.048, power=0.92). Results: Forty-one patients were enrolled between 7/2012 and 7/2013. One patient was deemed not analyzable due to not receiving any protocol treatment. Fourteen patients remain on treatment. Five (13%) patients achieved an undetectable PSA of ≤ 0.2ng/ml (95% CI 4%, 27%). Nine (23%) additional patients had PSA level > 0.2 but < 4 ng/ml. Twenty-one patients had no PSA response and six were not assessable and assumed to be non-responders. The median progression-free survival (PFS) was 17.4 months. There was one incident each of Grade 4 ALT elevation and rectal bleeding. Twelve patients reported Grade 3 adverse events as their worst level of severity. Conclusions: Although encouraged by 5 patients attaining “undetectable” PSA responses to AA in this poor prognosis setting, this study did not reach the protocol pre-specified level of 6 responses. OS and PFS will be updated with further follow-up. The therapy was generally well tolerated, without any clear signal of any unexpected toxicity. Clinical trial information: NCT01309672.

247 Background: The ALSYMPCA study (Parker, NEJM, 2013) was the basis for regulatory approval of Ra-223 for the treatment of castrate-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC) patients (pts) with symptomatic bone metastases. The aim of this prospective EAP was to monitor acute and long-term safety of Ra-223. Pt profiles and findings in the EAP setting are presented. Methods: In the EAP, CRPC pts with symptomatic bone metastases who either received or were not eligible for docetaxel received Ra-223 50 kBq/kg by injection q4wks for 6 cycles. Primary endpts: ECOG PS, symptomatic skeletal-related events (SSE), treatment-emergent adverse events [TEAEs], routine laboratory tests including PSA. Exploratory endpts: overall survival (OS), SSE rates, changes in total ALP (tALP)/PSA responses, time to tALP normalization, and to tALP and PSA progression. Descriptive statistics were used. Results: 184 pts entered treatment; baseline characteristics were similar as seen in ALSYMPCA (N=600) (exceptions in table); 67% had total ALP <220 U/L and 47% mild/moderate pain. 81/184 (44%) received all 6 injections; 26 (14%) had a dose interruption/delay, 18 due to AEs. Median OS was 17m (50/184; 27% pts). TEAEs occurring at ≥10% were anemia, fatigue, diarrhea, and nausea. The most common Grade 3/4 hematologic TEAE was anemia (11%). Majority of pts had no change in ECOG PS within each trt cycle. 19 (10%) pts had an SSE, 13 received EBRT for bone pain. 33% of pts had a ≥30% confirmed ALP decline from baseline and 16% had a ≥50% decline. Median time to ALP progression was not reached. Median time to PSA progression was 4m and 6% had a confirmed PSA response. Conclusions: In heavily pretreated patients with CRPC and bone metastases and in an EAP setting, Ra-223 was well tolerated with no new safety concerns and a positive effect on efficacy parameters.
