New Formulation

5533 Background: NOX66 is a new formulation of the small molecule, idronoxil. The primary mechanism of action of idronoxil stems from its binding to the transmembrane enzyme ENOX2 expressed on cancer cells, resulting in reduced S1P and increased ceramide levels, thereby promoting apoptosis. Additional intracellular effects include the inhibition of DNA repair mechanisms. There is growing evidence that S1P is a promotor of tumour resistance to immune cell infiltration, highlighting NOX66’s potential to modulate the immune response against cancer. Methods: This two-part phase 1b open-label study enrolled patients with late-stage progressive mCRPC. Part 1 was a dose-escalation safety assessment of three doses of NOX66 (400 mg, n = 4; 800 mg, n = 6 and 1200 mg, n = 15) administered daily for 14 days with radiation therapy (20 Gy) delivered in 5 fractionated doses to one or more symptomatic lesion/s. Part 2 was an expansion cohort with NOX66 at 1200 mg in conjunction with radiation therapy. The primary endpoint of safety was assessed by the frequency and grade of treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs). At 6 weeks, 3- and 6-month follow up, treatment response was assessed radiographically by RECIST1.1 and by PSA >50% reduction. Results: 25 patients received and completed treatment. TEAEs considered related to NOX66 alone were mild (Grade 1) cases of dry mouth and oral mucositis; mild (Grade 1) fatigue was considered related to both NOX66 and radiation. None of the 21 Grade ≥3 TEAEs were considered related to NOX66. At 6 months, of the 15 evaluable patients by RECIST1.1, 9 had SD and 1 had PR and these same patients had maintained this response from 3 months. Five of the 16 PSA-evaluable patients achieved a PSA response (61-98% PSA reduction) at 6 months, which again was maintained from 3 months. Conclusions: NOX66 in combination with low-dose radiation therapy was found to be safe and well tolerated with promising signals of durable efficacy in patients with late-stage mCRPC. Responses of lesions outside the radiation field are being reviewed. Clinical trial information: NCT03307629 .

e16117 Combining radiation therapy with anti-PD-1 for patients with advanced hepatocellular carcinoma: an open-label, single-center, single-arm clinical study Jian-Xu Li, Ting-Shi Su, Xiao-Feng Lin, Yi-Tian Chen, Shi-Xiong Liang, Bang-De Xiang; Guangxi Medical University Cancer Hospital, Nanning, China Abstract Research Funding: Jiangsu Hengrui Pharmaceuticals Co., Ltd., Shanghai, China. Guangxi Medical and Health Appropriate Technology Development and Application Project (No. S2019039), Guangxi, China. Background: Based on the results of recent studies, the PD-1 monoclonal antibodies have been approved to treat the patients with advanced hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) by the FDA. Radiation therapy (RT) can enhance responsiveness to PD-1 monoclonal antibody by potential mechanisms. A phase Ⅱa study was conducted to assess the safety and the efficacy of combining RT with anti-PD-1 for patients with advanced hepatocellular carcinoma. Methods: Patients with advanced HCC were eligible. Stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) were adopted, and the dose of radiation were Dt-PGTV 30-50 Gy/10fractions. Camrelizumab (200mg) were given intravenously every 3 weeks since the first day of RT until disease progression, or intolerable toxicity. Adverse events (AEs) and objective response rate (ORR) were summarized to assess the safety and efficacy. Results: From April 2020 to November 2020, 17 patients were enrolled (median age 54, range 32-69). 15 (88%) patients were male. 14 (82%) had ECOG performance score of 0. All the patients had Child-Pugh score A. 16 patients staged as Barcelona Clinic Liver Cancer staging C or China Liver Cancer staging Ⅲ. Extrahepatic metastases were identified in 11 (65%) patients. 13 (77%) patients were Hepatitis B virus infected. 15 (88%) patients had previously 2 lines or more chemotherapy. 9 (53%) patients had Alpha-fetoprotein level≥400 ng/ml. The ORR was 47%. The best response assessed by RECIST 1.1 was partial response (8 patients). Four patients had grade 3 immune-related adverse events (irAEs), including increased aspartate aminotransferase and alanine transaminase (n =1)，decreased hemoglobin (n =1)，decreased platelet count (n =1)，decreased neutrophil count (n =1). All grade 3 irAEs were mitigated with proper treatment. None treatment-related deaths occurred. Conclusions: In this study, RT combined with anti-PD-1 had an acceptable safety profile and indicated an effective treatment option in patients with unresectable HCC. Clinical trial information: NCT04193696. Clinical trial information: NCT04193696.

TPS4692^ Background: The phase III TROPIC study (NCT00417079) reported a significant improvement in overall survival (OS) for cabazitaxel (Cbz) + prednisone (P;CbzP) (25 mg/m2 IV Q3W/10 mg PO QD) vs mitoxantrone (M) + P (MP) (median OS 15.1 vs 12.7 mos; HR 0.70; P < 0.0001) in pts with mCRPC (also known as hormone-refractory prostate cancer) previously treated with a D-containing regimen. CbzP is approved by the FDA, EMA and other health authorities for the treatment of pts with mCRPC that has progressed after a D-containing regimen. Cbz toxicity is consistent with other taxanes; compared with M, more hematologic toxicities are reported (primarily Grade 3–4 neutropenia). Phase I/II studies identified 20 and 25 mg/m2 as recommended doses; 25 mg/m2 was selected for the phase III TROPIC study. As pooled data show Grade 3–4 neutropenia incidence is lower with Cbz < 25 mg/m2 (61%) vs ≥ 25 mg/m2 (74%), it is of interest to assess if reducing the Cbz approved dose in mCRPC lessens hematologic toxicity and is non-inferior in terms of efficacy. Methods: PROSELICA (NCT01308580) is a randomized, open-label, multinational, phase III study comparing 20 mg/m2 and 25 mg/m2 Cbz for efficacy and tolerability. Pts with a life expectancy > 6 mos, ECOG PS ≤ 2, histologically/cytologically confirmed metastatic prostate adenocarcinoma resistant to hormone therapy and previously treated with a D-containing regimen are eligible. Pts are randomized 1:1 to receive Cbz 20 mg/m² or 25 mg/m² IV Q3W + P 10 mg PO QD, treated until disease progression, unacceptable toxicity or withdrawal of consent (max 10 cycles), and stratified according to ECOG PS, measurable disease (yes/no) and region. The primary endpoint is OS (non-inferiority design). Secondary endpoints include safety, progression-free survival (PCWG2 criteria), PSA and pain progression and response, tumor response in pts with measurable disease and health-related quality of life. Cbz PK and pharmacogenomics will be assessed in pt subgroups. Planned enrollment is 1,200 pts. Study start was in May 2011; as of Jan 2012, 270 pts had been enrolled. The first DMC meeting recommended continuing the study without change.

108 Background: We assessed the cytotoxic effects of the gemcitabine in combination with oxaliplatin (GemOx) in prostate cancer cell lines and evaluated the efficacy and safety of GemOx in patients with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC) who failed docetaxel based chemotherapy. Methods: Gemcitabine and oxaliplatin were preclinically tested for their cytotoxic activity in LNCaP, PC3 and DU145 cell lines. The combined drug effects were evaluated using the Chou and Taladay analysis. Clinically, patients with CRPC who failed prior docetaxel chemotherapy were treated with gemcitabine 1,000 mg/m2 at fixed-dose rate (10 mg/m2/min) and oxaliplatin 100 mg/m2 intravenously every 2 weeks and prednisolone 5 mg orally twice daily. Unless disease progression or intolerability develops, treatment could be continued until 12 cycles. Primary endpoint was PSA response rate (PCWG 1.0 criteria). Results: The IC50of gemcitabine and oxaliplatin were, respectively, 1.25 μM and 0.69 μM for LNCaP cells; 50.00+ μM and 12.81 μM for PC3 cells; and 11.23 μM and 11.04 μM for DU145 cells. The GemOx combination displayed synergistic effects in all 3 cell lines. In phase II study, 31 patients were accrued. At the time of this analysis 7 patients were still continuing treatment. The median age was 67 years (range 57 ~ 81) and the median dose of docetaxel exposure was 525 mg/m2. A total of 231 cycles administered with a median of 9 cycles per patient. PSA responses were observed in 52% (95% CI, 34~69) and partial responses were observed in 7 of 10 patients with measurable disease. Out of 23 patients, 10 patients achieved pain response (44%). With a median FU duration of 8.0 months, the median time to PSA progression was 6.4 months (95% CI, 3.5~9.2). Peripheral neuropathy developed in 78% of patients but remained of grade 1 ~2 intensities. Frequently observed grade 3 or 4 toxicities were neutropenia (10%), thrombocytopenia (10%), anemia (3%), and diarrhea (3%). Conclusions: GemOx is active and well tolerated in patients with CPRC after docetaxel failure and deserves further investigation in this setting (NCT 01487720). Clinical trial information: NCT01487720.

284 Background: Cabazitaxel (C) administered on a 3-weekly dose schedule has shown a survival benefit in mCRPC patients (pts) pre-treated with docetaxel (D) with concerns about toxicity. We sought to evaluate safety and efficacy of a 2-weekly C schedule. Methods: At the EGP hospital from November 2013 to September 2014, 26 mCRPC pts for whom C was indicated (previously treated with D) received C 16 mg/m² on days 1 and 15 of a 4 weeks-cycle plus daily 10 mg prednisone, until completion of 6 cycles, disease progression, unacceptable toxicity or death. We analyzed safety with toxicity grade ≥ 3 and efficacy, including PSA response, time to biochemical progression (TTBP), radiological progression-free survival (rPFS) and overall survival (OS). Results: 26 pts received C in a 2-weekly schedule; full data are available for 20 pts. Median age was 66.5 years, 34.6% of pts were >70 years; 30.8% had ECOG PS 2; 47.8% had Gleason ≥ 8; 53.8% had lymph node metastases; 96.2% had bone metastases; none had lung or liver metastases. Median D cycles previously received were 6; respectively 80% and 88.4% of pts had received ≥ 2 hormonal manipulations and abiraterone acetate (AA). Median baseline hemoglobin was 12.2 g/dL, median PSA 104.6 ng/mL; 42.9% of pts had ALP ≥ 1.5N, 33.3% had LDH ≥ 1.5N. 4 pts (15%) had grade 1 thrombocytopenia at baseline, 1 (3.8%) had grade 4, reflecting diffuse bone marrow involvement. All pts received G-CSF in primary prophylaxis. Median number of C administration was 7, only 4 pts stopped C because of toxicity (2 for asthenia, 1 for febrile neutroepnia, 1 for thrombocytopenia). Toxicities grade ≥3 were: anemia 33.3%; thrombocytopenia 30%; neutropenia 23.8%; febrile neutropenia 5% (1 pt); no grade ≥3 diarrhea was observed. 45% (9 pts) achieved ≥30% PSA response and 30% (6 pts) ≥50% PSA response. Clinical, biological or radiological response occurred in 50% (10 pts). Median TTBP and rPFS were 3.0 months (2.2-3.6) and 4.2 months (2.8-7.4) respectively. Median OS was not reached at the time of data collection. Conclusions: 2-weekly 16 mg/m² C schedule has a manageable toxicity profile in heavily D and AA pretreated mCRPC pts, and warrants controlled prospective evaluation compared to the standard 3-weekly C schedule.

TPS5091 Background: Tumors with biallelic CDK12 loss have been identified as a distinct subtype in metastatic castration resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) and other cancer types. The CDK12 biallelic loss mCRPC genomic signature, distinct from homologous recombination deficient (HRD) and ETS fusion signatures, is characterized by excessive tandem duplications, genomic instability, gene fusion-caused putative neoantigens, and increased tumor T cell infiltration. Early clinical experience with anti-PD-1 immunotherapy in CDK12 loss mCRPC patients (pts) is notable for deep and sustained PSA as well as radiographic responses. We hypothesize that CDK12 biallelic loss is a potential biomarker of immune checkpoint immunotherapy (ICI) efficacy in mCRPC and other cancers. Methods: IMPACT (NCT03570619) is a multi-center, open label, phase 2 study of pts with metastatic cancers that harbor CDK12 biallelic loss. mCRPC pts will be enrolled in cohort A (n = 25) in a Mini-Max Simon Two-Stage design, and all other pts in single-stage cohort B (n = 15). All pts will receive induction therapy with nivolumab 3 mg/kg IV and ipilimumab 1 mg/kg IV q3 weeks for up to 4 cycles, followed by maintenance nivolumab at 480 mg IV q4 weeks (up to 52 weeks in total). Eligible pts must have identified biallelic CDK12 loss on any CLIA/CAP approved next generation sequencing assay and a histologic diagnosis of metastatic prostate adenocarcinoma or other metastatic carcinoma. No prior ICI is allowed. The primary endpoint is the overall response rate (ORR) in cohort A per PCWG3 criteria. An ORR of 30% is targeted in cohort A. Secondary endpoints include safety, secondary efficacy measures, quality of life, and survival measures. Exploratory objectives include tumor whole exome analysis and changes in immune profiles with therapy. Comprehensive and serial monitoring of peripheral blood immune cell populations will be performed via T cell clonal diversity assessment and multi-parametric flow cytometry. Changes in myeloid and lymphoid populations will be assessed from whole blood. Polarization and effector function of T cells and activation of antigen presenting cells will be further characterized from isolated peripheral blood mononuclear cells. Study accrual is ongoing. Clinical trial information: NCT03570619.

4631 Background: Docetaxel increases survival in hormone-refractory prostate cancer and is active in hormone-sensitive disease. In HRLCaP, improvement upon AS plus RT is required, as many patients eventually develop metastases. This trial’s objective was to assess the tolerability of neoadjuvant docetaxel plus AS and RT in men with HRLCaP. Methods: Fifty-four men with newly diagnosed previously untreated HRLCaP were accrued to a Phase II single-arm, 2-stage, open-label study involving 7 Canadian centres. All were to receive 3 years of AS (LHRH-agonist + antiandrogen for 4 weeks). Chemotherapy started week 5. Twenty-four men received docetaxel 35 mg m2 iv weekly × 6 q8 weeks for 2 cycles, RT starting week 25. After protocol revision, 30 men received docetaxel 75 mg m2 iv q3 weekly for 4 cycles, RT starting week 21. The primary endpoint was unacceptable toxicity (UT), defined as ≥Grade 3 non-hematologic toxicity (except nausea/vomiting, tearing, short-term fatigue, and easily-controlled diarrhea), grade 4 thrombocytopenia, grade 4 neutropenia lasting >7 days, febrile neutropenia, or toxicity-related RT change (delay>2 weeks, >25% dose reduction). Results: Median age was 68 (49–79) years. Median iPSA was 19.15 (2.8–138) μg/L. Gleason Score and T-stage were ≥8 and ≥T3a in 70.4% and 42.6%, respectively. All patients have completed RT. Adverse events were as expected for docetaxel. UT occurred in 8 patients (14.8%), including 5 with qweekly docetaxel (Grade 3 acute RT-related genitourinary toxicity - 3, Grade 3 docetaxel hypersensitivity - 1, Grade 3 fatigue >2 weeks - 1) and 3 with q3 weekly docetaxel (Grade 3 acute RT-related genitourinary toxicity - 1, febrile neutropenia - 1, Grade 4 neutropenia >7 days - 1). The following table summarizes PSA response to neoadjuvant treatment. Conclusions: Neoadjuvant AS and docetaxel plus RT in men with HRLCaP appeared well tolerated. Patients will be followed for other outcomes. This approach will be tested in a phase 3 trial. [Table: see text] No significant financial relationships to disclose.

e16055 Background: Previous trials of the antiangiogenic kinase inhibitor sorafenib in mCRPC have reported PSA elevation accompanying radiographic response, and evidence that sorafenib may potentiate docetaxel (dxl) myelosuppression. To assess the safety, antivascular effects, and activity of sorafenib and dxl in mCRPC, a phase II trial with dynamic contrast enhanced-magnetic resonance imaging (DCE-MRI) was conducted. Methods: Eligible men had mCRPC and no prior chemotherapy. Treatment consisted of dxl 75 mg/m2(day 1) and sorafenib (days 2–19) of a 21 day cycle. Patients received 7 days of sorafenib before cycle 1. Six patients received sorafenib 200mg BID and remaining patients received sorafenib 400 mg BID if <4/6 patients had grade 4 neutropenia. DCE-MRI was performed at baseline, days 8 and 28. The primary endpoint was PSA response rate (>50% PSA decline). Secondary endpoints were vascular response rate (>20% decline in area under the gadolinium curve [AUC60]), toxicity rates, and time to progression (TTP). PSA-only progression (2 consecutive PSA rises) was confirmed by a third PSA rise or radiographic progression after a 21-day drug holiday. Sample size of 69 patients in 1 stage was designed to maximize detection of significant correlations between DCE-MRI and clinical outcomes. Results: Six of 13 enrolled patients (46%) had a PSA response. A median PSA increase of 37% was observed in 73% of patients after 1 week of sorafenib. The median TTP was 8+ months. Two patients had complete disappearance of bone lesions. Grade 3 adverse events were neutropenia (77%), hand-foot syndrome (23%), anemia (15%), nausea (8%), and rash (8%). A median AUC60 decline of 40% from baseline was observed after 7 days of sorafenib, and only a 6% decline on day 28 during a scheduled sorafenib holiday. Conclusions: Sorafenib 400 mg po bid and dxl 75 mg/m2 are tolerable in men with mCRPC. Elevated PSA values in men treated with sorafenib and dxl does not always reflect disease progression. DCE-MRI can capture sorafenib's impairment of tumor vasculature in osseous metastases and rebound angiogenesis during drug holidays. Bone responses and TTP data provide evidence of encouraging activity. No significant financial relationships to disclose.

e16105 Background: There is no standard for CRPC once chemotherapy fails. In studies employing docetaxel (D), 35–39% of pts did not complete therapy due to progression and only 45–50% had a PSA response. This implies that many pts develop resistance to D. Sorafenib is a multi kinase inhibitor with antiangiogenesis properties. We hypothesized that sorafenib could overcome chemotherapy resistance in these pts. Methods: Eligible pts must have progressed while on either D or mitoxantrone (M). They received sorafenib at 400 mg orally twice/daily in addition to the chemotherapy agent they were on. Sorefinib/chemotherapy combination was given for a maximum of 6 cycles followed by sorafenib monotherapy until progression. Primary end point was safety of the sorafenib/chemotherapy combination. Secondary end points included the overall clinical benefit calculated as the sum of complete response (CR), partial response (PR), and stable disease (SD), toxicity, and time to disease progression (TTP). Results: To date, 15 pts have been enrolled; 14 are evaluable. Eleven pts were on D and 4 on M. Median age was 68 (range 61–83), median PSA was 111.2 ng/ml (13.6–1703.9). Nine pts (60%) had visceral and bone disease. Median PSA-DT pre-study was 2 months (0.5–6) and median time from last chemotherapy to starting study was 4 weeks. Median number of given cycles was 6.5 (2–12). Six pts did not require dose reduction, 2 others were re-escalated to the full dose. Sorafenib was safely combined with chemotherapy with 6 pts experiencing grade 3 fatigue, 3 developing grade 3 hand/foot syndrome, and 1 experiening grade 3 diarrhea. Eleven pts (73%) had SD radiographically that lasted a median of 6.7 months. In all, 6 out of 14 pts (42%) had a PSA decline after adding sorafenib and 3 (21%) had stable PSA. Of these 9 pts (PR+SD), 2 never doubled their PSA. Two pts had PSA decline after withdrawing sorafenib. Median TTP for PSA was 3.75 months. PSA responses did not correlate with radiographic changes or clinical benefit. With a median follow-up of 8 months, 5 pts (33%) remain alive with 1 continuing on therapy without progression. Conclusions: Sorafenib overcomes chemotherapy-refractoriness and failures in CRPC. [Table: see text]

98 Background: The investigational agent orteronel (TAK-700) is a selective 17,20 lyase inhibitor that down regulates androgenic steroid production in vitro and in vivo. Since phase 1 data in patients (pts) with mCRPC were promising, this open-label, multicenter study was expanded to gather additional data on safety and antitumor activity. Methods: The phase 2 portion of this study included four additional dose cohorts. Pts had no prior chemotherapy, and had baseline testosterone <50 ng/dL and prostate-specific antigen (PSA) ≥5 ng/mL. Results: 97 pts received orteronel 300 mg BID (n=23), 400 mg BID + prednisone 5 mg BID (n=24), 600 mg BID + prednisone (n=26), or 600 mg QD (n=24). At data cut-off (23 May 2011), 62% of pts had withdrawn (including 19% due to AEs and 19% for disease progression [PD]). Most common AEs were fatigue (76%), nausea (47%), and constipation (38%); most common grade ≥3 AEs were fatigue (12%) and hypokalaemia (8%). PSA response rates (≥50% decrease) at 12 wks were 63%, 50%, 41%, and 60% in the 300 mg BID, 400 and 600 mg BID + prednisone, and 600 mg QD groups. Of 51 RECIST-evaluable pts, 10 had partial responses (of which 5 confirmed), 22 stable disease, and 15 PD. At 12 wks, median testosterone decreased from baseline in all groups: (ng/dL, 12 wks/baseline) 0.98/8.50 (300 mg BID), 0.30/9.90 (400 mg BID +prednisone), 0.07/7.33 (600 mg BID + prednisone), 0.49/6.31 (600 mg QD). Similarly, at 12 wks, median dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate (DHEA-S) decreased from baseline in all groups: (µg/dL, 12 wks/baseline) 8.65/53.0 (300 mg BID), 0.10/36.3 (400 mg BID + prednisone), 0.10/51.7 (600 mg BID + prednisone), 5.30/31.5 (600 mg QD). Overall, mean circulating tumor cell numbers decreased from 16.6 (per 7.5mL blood) at baseline to 3.9 at 12 wks. Conclusions: Orteronel ≥300 mg BID appears active and well tolerated in pts with mCRPC, with similar efficacy ± prednisone. PSA response rates suggest that testosterone, rather than DHEA, may be a more reliable marker of lyase inhibition efficacy. Preclinical data and changes in pharmacodynamic parameters in this study suggest partially selective 17,20 lyase inhibition. Final data will be reported.

25 Background: IPI is a fully human, anti-CTLA-4 monoclonal antibody capable of enhancing anti-tumor immunity. Preclinically, radiotherapy (XRT) and CTLA-4 blockade have synergistic anti-tumor activity. This phase 1/2 study in patients (pts) with mCRPC was designed to assess: safety of IPI at various doses, feasibility of combining IPI with XRT, and activity. Methods: mCRPC pts with or without prior chemotherapy were enrolled. In the dose-escalation phase, 33 pts (³6 pts per cohort) received IPI q3 weeks x 4 doses at 3, 5, or 10 mg/kg, or with XRT at 3 or 10 mg/kg. Single dose XRT (8 Gy/lesion, up to 3 lesions per pt) was given 24 to 48 h before the first IPI dose. The 10 mg/kg ± XRT cohorts were expanded to 50; 34 received IPI + XRT (Table). Based on clinical benefit, pts received additional doses of IPI. Endpoints were safety, and activity as assessed by serum prostate-specific antigen (PSA) and RECIST criteria. PSA was monitored monthly, with scans q3 months (mos). Results: There were no dose-limiting toxicities; 10 mg/kg ± XRT cohorts were, therefore, expanded for phase 2 evaluation. Treatment-related adverse events (AEs) and immune-related AEs (irAEs) were common across all cohorts with or without XRT. Common (≥ 15%) treatment-related AEs of any grade in the 10 mg/kg ± XRT group were fatigue (50%), diarrhea (54%), nausea (24%), colitis (22%), decreased appetite (22%), vomiting (18%), rash (32%) and pruritus (20%). Most common grade 3/4 irAEs were colitis (16%), diarrhea (8%) and hepatitis (10%). irAEs were generally responsive to immunosuppressives. Of 50 PSA-evaluable pts in the 10 mg/kg ± XRT group, 8 had PSA response (Table) lasting between 3 and 13+ mos. Of the 28 tumor-evaluable pts receiving 10 mg/kg ± XRT, 1 had complete response and 6 had stable disease. Conclusions: In pts with mCRPC, IPI 10 mg/kg alone or in combination with XRT showed clinical antitumor activity with disease control in some patients, and a generally manageable safety profile. The combination (IPI 10 mg/kg ± XRT) and monotherapy (IPI 10 mg/kg) are being explored in randomized phase 3 trials. [Table: see text]
