671 Background: The full dose of cabo is 60 mg, but some pts are treated with a reduced dose with the clinical anticipation of adverse events (AEs). We compared AEs and CO in mRCC pts treated with full versus reduced dose cabo. Methods: We performed a retrospective analysis of 65 mRCC pts treated with cabo at Winship Cancer Institute from 2016-2018. CO were measured by overall survival (OS), progression-free survival (PFS), and objective response (OR). OS and PFS were measured from first dose of cabo to date of death and clinical or radiographic progression, respectively. OR was defined as partial response (PR) or complete response (CR) per RECISTv1.1. AEs were collected from clinic notes. Univariate analysis (UVA) of association between AEs and CO was performed using logistic regression model. Results: Most pts were males (68%) and the median age was 63 years. Most (79%) had clear cell RCC (ccRCC) and the majority were IMDC intermediate (59%) or poor (39%) risk. Most pts (68%) received 60 mg and 48% of these pts underwent a dose reduction for AEs. Nearly all pts (95%) who started on a reduced dose experienced AEs, compared to 66% for pts treated with 60 mg. OR rate was similar for pts on 60 mg (18%) and pts on a reduced dose (19%). The median survival was comparable in pts treated with 60 mg and pts treated with a reduced dose (10.9 vs. 8.8 months, p=0.92 for OS and 5.6 vs. 5.1 months, p=0.23 for PFS) per Kaplan Meier estimation. AEs, particularly gastrointestinal (GI) AEs, were associated with significantly lower chance of OR (Table). Conclusions: CO may be comparable in mRCC pts treated with full versus reduced dose of cabo, but a reduced dose of cabo may not be associated with decreased AEs. GI side effects may be a poor prognostic factor in mRCC pts treated with cabo. Larger studies are warranted to validate these findings. [Table: see text]

613 Background: BMI has been explored as a prognostic factor in cancer pts and treatment-related toxicities have been associated with responses to VEGF-targeted therapy in mRCC pts. We investigated the association of BMI and adverse events (AEs) and CO in mRCC pts treated with cabo. Methods: A retrospective analysis of 65 pts with mRCC treated with cabo at Winship Cancer Institute from 2016 to 2018 was performed. Overall survival (OS), progression-free survival (PFS), and objective response (OR) were used to measure CO. OS and PFS were calculated from first cabo dose to death and radiographic or clinical progression, respectively. An OR was defined as a partial response (PR) or a complete response (CR) using RECISTv1.1. BMI was collected at baseline (BL) and 6 (±2) weeks after cabo initiation. AEs were obtained from clinic notes. Univariate analysis (UVA) of association between BMI and CO was carried out using logistic regression model for OR and proportional hazard model for OS and PFS. Results: The median age was 63 years and 26% were African American. The majority were either IMDC intermediate or poor-risk (59% and 34%, respectively). Most pts (67%) had a BMI ≥ 25 and the median BMI at BL was 26.6. There was no difference in incidence of AEs between pts with BMI < 25 and pts with BMI ≥ 25. Gastrointestinal (GI) AEs incidence was also comparable among pts with a BMI ≥ 25 (62%) and pts with BMI < 25 (57%, p = 0.666). Increased BMI at 6W was significantly associated with prolonged OS and increased baseline BMI at BL showed a trend towards longer OS (Table). Conclusions: Increased BMI may be associated with improved CO in mRCC pts treated with cabo, but there may not be a difference in AEs based on BMI. Larger analyses are needed to validate these findings. [Table: see text]

585 Background: Cabo is approved for the treatment for mRCC. We investigated the association of sites of mets and clinical outcomes (CO) in mRCC pts treated with cabo. Methods: We performed a retrospective analysis of 65 mRCC pts treated with cabo at Winship Cancer Institute from 2016 to 2018. Overall survival (OS) and progression-free survival (PFS) were measured from first dose of cabo to date of death and clinical or radiographic progression, respectively. Objective response was defined as a complete response (CR) or partial response (PR). Sites of mets were obtained from radiology and clinic notes and included bone, lymph node, brain, lung, and liver. Univariate analysis (UVA) and multivariate analysis (MVA) was performed using Cox proportional hazard or logistic regression model. Results: The median age was 63 years and most (68%) were males. The majority of pts (79%) had ccRCC and 48% received at least 2 prior systemic treatments. The distribution of mets were: bone (42%), lymph node (69%), brain (6%), lung (83%), and liver (40%). The UVA and MVA of association between sites of mets and CO are presented in Table. Pts with bone mets had significantly longer OS in UVA and trended towards longer OS and PFS in MVA compared to pts without bone mets. Conclusions: Bone mets may be a prognostic factor for improved CO in mRCC pts treated with cabo. Larger studies are needed to validate the results of this study.

BackgroundThe indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase (IDO) pathway is a key counter-regulatory mechanism that, in cancer, is exploited by tumors to evade antitumor immunity. Indoximod is a small-molecule IDO pathway inhibitor that reverses the immunosuppressive effects of low tryptophan (Trp) and high kynurenine (Kyn) that result from IDO activity. In this study, indoximod was used in combination with a checkpoint inhibitor (CPI) pembrolizumab for the treatment for advanced melanoma.MethodsPatients with advanced melanoma were enrolled in a single-arm phase II clinical trial evaluating the addition of indoximod to standard of care CPI approved for melanoma. Investigators administered their choice of CPI including pembrolizumab (P), nivolumab (N), or ipilimumab (I). Indoximod was administered continuously (1200 mg orally two times per day), with concurrent CPI dosed per US Food and Drug Administration (FDA)-approved label.ResultsBetween July 2014 and July 2017, 131 patients were enrolled. (P) was used more frequently (n=114, 87%) per investigator’s choice. The efficacy evaluable population consisted of 89 patients from the phase II cohort with non-ocular melanoma who received indoximod combined with (P).The objective response rate (ORR) for the evaluable population was 51% with confirmed complete response of 20% and disease control rate of 70%. Median progression-free survival was 12.4 months (95% CI 6.4 to 24.9). The ORR for Programmed Death-Ligand 1 (PD-L1)-positive patients was 70% compared with 46% for PD-L1-negative patients. The combination was well tolerated, and side effects were similar to what was expected from single agent (P).ConclusionIn this study, the combination of indoximod and (P) was well tolerated and showed antitumor efficacy that is worth further evaluation in selected patients with advanced melanoma.

e16567 Background: ICI/TKI combinations are a new standard of care for the initial treatment (tx) of mRCC. Efficacy and toxicity of such combination regimens beyond the first-line (1L) setting remain unknown. Methods: We retrospectively reviewed charts for adult patients (pts) receiving an ICI/TKI combination in any line of tx for mRCC of any histology at one of two academic centers as of May 1, 2020. ICIs included pembrolizumab (Pm), nivolumab (Ni), ipilimumab (Ip), or avelumab (Av); TKIs included sunitinib (Su), axitinib (Ax), pazopanib (Pz), lenvatinib (Ln), or cabozantinib (Ca). Clinical data including pt demographics, histology, International mRCC Database Consortium (IMDC) risk group, tx history, and ICI/TKI tx and toxicity details were recorded. Outcomes included objective response rate (ORR), median progression-free survival (mPFS), and safety, analyzed via descriptive statistics and the Kaplan-Meier method. Results: Of 85 pts, 69 (81%) were male and 67 (79%) had clear cell histology. IMDC risk was favorable (24%), intermediate (54%), poor (20%), and unknown (2%). 39% had ICI/TKI tx in the 1L setting. ICI/TKI regimens included Pm/Ax (33%), Ni/Ca (25%), Ni/Ax (20%), Av/Ax (11%), Ni/Ip/Ca (8%), Ni/Su (2%), and Ni/Ln (1%). ORR and mPFS stratified by line of tx and prior tx are shown in the table. Of 52 pts who received ICI/TKI tx as salvage (after 1L), 52% had a grade 3 or higher (≥G3) adverse event (AE), of which the most common were anorexia (13.5%), diarrhea and hypertension (11.5% each), and fatigue (9.6%). 65% of pts on salvage ICI/TKI tx stopped tx for progression/death, while 16% stopped tx for ≥G3 AE. ≥G3 AE rates by line of tx were 62.5% (2L), 50% (3L), and 45% (≥4L). Conclusions: ICI/TKI combination therapy is effective and safe beyond the 1L setting. Prior tx history appears to impact efficacy but has less of an effect on safety/tolerability. These observations will need to be confirmed in prospective studies.[Table: see text]

Introduction: Limited data exists on utilization of protein post-translational modifications as biomarkers for clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC). We employed high-throughput glycoproteomics to evaluate differential expression of glycoprotein-isoforms as novel markers for ccRCC progression-free survival (PFS). Methods: Plasma samples were obtained from 77 patients treated surgically for ccRCC. Glycoproteomic analyses were carried out after liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry. Age-adjusted Cox proportional hazard models were constructed to evaluate PFS. Optimized Harrells c-index was employed to dichotomize the collective for the construction of Kaplan-Meier curves. Results: The average length of follow-up was 3.4 (range: 0.04-9.83) years. Glycoproteomic analysis identified 39 glycopeptides and 14 non-glycosylated peptides that showed statistically significant (false discovery rate p ≤0.05) differential expression associated with PFS. Five of the glycosylated peptides conferred continuous hazard ratio of > 6 (range 6.3-11.6). These included prothrombin A2G2S glycan motif (HR=6.47, P=9.53E-05), immunoglobulin J chain FA2G2S2 motif (HR=10.69, P=0.001), clusterin A2G2 motif (HR=7.38, P=0.002), complement component C8A A2G2S2 motif (HR=11.59, P=0.002), and apolipoprotein M glycopeptide with non-fucosylated and non-sialylated hybrid-type glycan (HR=6.30, P=0.003). Kaplan-Meier curves based on dichotomous expression of these five glycopeptides resulted in hazard ratios of 3.9-10.7, all with p-value < 0.03. Kaplan-Meyer plot using the multivariable model comprising 3 of the markers yielded HR of 11.96 (p <0.0001). Conclusion: Differential glyco-isoform abundance of plasma proteins may be a useful source of biomarkers for the clinical course and prognosis of ccRCC.

Abstract To study and observe the safety and efficacy of anlotinib in the treatment of advanced osteosarcoma with metastases. We retrospectively studied patients with advanced osteosarcoma and metastases who received anlotinib treatment in our hospital from June 2018 to April 2020. All patients had received standard multimodal therapies, before taking anlotinib. Therapeutic doses of anlotinib were 12 mg for adults and 10 mg for children and adolescents once a day for 2 consecutive weeks, followed by a week of withdrawal. This 3-week cycle of treatment was continued until the tumor progressed rapidly or the patients failed to tolerate the side effects. Adverse drug reactions were recorded, and therapeutic efficacy was evaluated based on progression free survival (PFS), disease control rate (DCR), overall survival (OS), and objective response rate (ORR). The median PFS was 9.81 ± 0.9 months, and the 6-month and 10-month PFS rates were 73.3% and 33.3%, respectively. The median OS was 11.43 ± 0.58 months. No patients achieved complete response. After 6 months of treatment, the DCR and ORR were 80% and 13.3%, respectively. No drug-related deaths or Grade 4 adverse events occurred in the patients. Five patients (33.3%) had Grade 3 adverse events. The most common drug-related adverse events were hand-food syndrome, fatigue, high blood pressure, anorexia, and pneumothorax. Anlotinib had a certain curative effect on patients with advanced osteosarcoma and metastases after failure of standard treatment. The adverse events were mostly tolerable or relieved after treatment.

Background. We investigated the efficacy of TILs and anti-PD1 combination therapy in patients with metastatic cervical cancer with low MSI expression and PDL1-negative. Methods. A total of 80 patients were put on TILs and anti-PD1 combination therapy, and the progression-free survival time (PFS) and overall survival time (OS) were assessed by Kaplan–Meier analysis. Univariate and multivariate analyses were performed to identify factors that could predict the prognosis of metastatic cervical cancer in the previously described patients. Results. The objective response rate was 25%, whereas the mPFS and mOS were 6.1 and 11.3 months, respectively. The therapeutic efficacy was influenced by the characteristics of TILs, infection with HPV, and development of fever just after the therapy. Conclusion. Overall, our results show that the combination therapy of TILs and anti-PD1 significantly improves the prognosis of metastatic cervical cancer.

PURPOSE: To assess the safety and efficacy of vinorelbine in patients with AIDS-related Kaposi’s sarcoma (KS). PATIENTS AND METHODS: From December 1994 to May 1997, within the Italian Cooperative Group on AIDS and Tumors, we enrolled 36 patients with AIDS-related KS who experienced disease progression after one or more regimens of systemic chemotherapy. Patients were treated with vinorelbine 30 mg/m2 every 2 weeks by intravenous bolus. RESULTS: Of 35 assessable patients, three (9%) had a clinical complete response and 12 (34%) had a partial remission, for an overall objective response rate of 43% (95% confidence interval, 26% to 61%). For the 15 patients with objective responses, the median duration of response from the beginning of therapy until the development of progression was 176 days, whereas the median progression-free survival and the median survival durations for 35 assessable patients were 151 days and 216 days, respectively. Vinorelbine also induced responses in patients who had become resistant to regimens that included other vinca alkaloids. Overall, vinorelbine was well tolerated. Toxicity, including neurologic toxicity, was mild and reversible. Neutropenia was the most frequent dose-limiting toxicity. CONCLUSION: Vinorelbine is safe and effective in the treatment of patients with advanced KS who have been previously treated with one or more chemotherapy regimens.

8568 Background: High dose chemotherapy with autologous stem cells transplant (ASCT) is the gold standard in patients with relapsed/refractory HL. Response to induction chemotherapy (chemosensitive patients) plays a major role in prognosis, however the role of CR status after induction therapy has not been established. Methods: One hundred twenty one patients with relapsed/refractory HL received 4 courses of IGEV followed by single (N=59) or tandem (N=19) ASCT (Santoro et al., Haematologica 92, 2007). Response to IGEV was evaluated by Cheson criteria (1999).The aim of this study was to evaluate the role of CR versus no-CR to IGEV induction therapy on the outcome in terms of progression free survival (PSF) and overall survival (OS). Statistical analysis was performed by using the Kaplan-Meier method and Cox proportional hazard model. Results: IGEV induced an overall response rate of 75% with 46% of CR. In the univariate analysis favourable factors for outcome were CR vs no-CR to IGEV (PFS: p <0.001, OS: p 0.002), A vs B symptoms (PFS: p 0.003; OS: p 0.05), limited vs advanced stage (PFS: p 0.03; OS: p 0.03), and 1 vs≥2 previous chemotherapy lines (PFS: p 0.03, OS: p 0.02); response to last therapy (relapsed vs refractory) influenced PFS (p 0.03) but not OS (p 0.70). The multivariate analysis confirmed the favourable prognostic role of CR to IGEV (PFS HR: 2.5, CI 95%:1.3; 4.6 - OS HR 2.3, CI 95%:1.1;4.8) and of the number of previous chemotherapy lines (PFS HR:1.8, CI 95%:1.0;3.2 - OS HR 2.1, CI 95%:1.1;3.9). Conclusions: According to our data, we conclude that: 1. CR to IGEV is the strongest indicator of outcome in relapsed/refractory HL. 2. Achievement of CR to IGEV overcomes the role of initial disease status. 3. Efforts are warranted to increase the CR rate by induction therapy. No significant financial relationships to disclose.

260 Background: No standard care has been established for advanced small-bowel adenocarcinoma (SBA). The aim of this study is to explore a most promising chemotherapy regimen for advanced SBA. Methods: All data were collected from medical records of patients with advanced or recurrent SBA who received chemotherapy between April 1999 and March 2009 at 41 hospitals in Japan. Selection criteria were as follows: 1) histologically proven SBA, excluding ampullary carcinoma, 2) no previous chemotherapy or radiotherapy, 3) ECOG PS 0-2, 4) adequate bone marrow, hepatic and renal functions, 5) no concomitant malignancy. Patients were divided into the five groups by regimens: group A, fluoropyrimidine alone; group B, fluoropyrimidine + cisplatin; group C, fluoropyrimidine + oxaliplatin; group D, fluoropyrimidine + irinotecan; group E, others. Progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) were calculated by Kaplan-Meier method. Results: Demographics of selected 132 patients were: median age (range), 59 (23-78) years; male/female, 87/45; location of primary tumor, duodenum/jejunum/ileum/unknown, 80/32/17/3; advanced/recurrent disease, 91/41. The numbers of the patients in group A, B, C, D and E were 60, 17, 22, 11 and 22, and objective response rates (ORR) in the patients with target lesions were 20% (9/46), 38% (5/13), 42% (8/19), 25% (2/8), 21% (4/19), respectively. Median PFS and OS were 6.0 and 14.0 months for the whole population, and those in each group are shown in the Table.In comparison with fluoropyrimidine alone (A), oxaliplatin-combined regimens (C) associated with better PFS (HR=0.53 [0.31-0.93], p=0.03) and OS (HR=0.64 [0.33-1.25], p=0.19), while cisplatin-combined regimens (B) did not (HR=1.54 [0.88-2.68], p=0.13 for PFS and HR=1.67 [0.94-2.97], p=0.08 for OS) by univariate analysis. Conclusions: It is suggested that oxaliplatin-combined regimens might be the most promising regimen for advanced SBA. [Table: see text] No significant financial relationships to disclose.
