9504 Background: T-DXd is an antibody-drug conjugate composed of an anti-HER2 antibody, cleavable tetrapeptide-based linker, and topoisomerase I inhibitor payload. In a phase I trial, patients (pts) with HER2-mutated NSCLC who received T-DXd had a confirmed objective response rate (ORR) of 72.7% (8/11) (Tsurutani et al, WCLC 2018). DESTINY-Lung01 (NCT03505710) is an ongoing, multicenter, phase II study of T-DXd in pts with non-squamous NSCLC overexpressing HER2 or containing a HER2-activating mutation. We report data for the cohort with HER2 mutations after a median follow-up of 8.0 mo (range, 1.4-14.2 mo). Methods: Pts were treated with T-DXd 6.4 mg/kg every 3 weeks. The primary endpoint was confirmed ORR (complete response [CR] + partial response [PR]) by ICR. Additional endpoints were disease control rate (DCR; CR + PR + stable disease), duration of response (DOR), progression-free survival (PFS), and safety. Results: At data cutoff (25 Nov 2019), 42 pts (64.3% female) had received T-DXd. Median age was 63.0 years (range, 34-83 years; < 65 y, 59.5%); 45.2% had central nervous system metastases; ECOG performance status was 0 in 23.8% of pts and 1 in 76.2%. HER2 mutations were predominantly in the kinase domain (90.5%). Most pts (90.5%) had prior platinum-based chemotherapy and 54.8% had anti–PD-1 or –PD-L1 treatment; median number of prior treatment lines was 2 (range, 1-6). Median treatment duration was 7.75 mo (range, 0.7-14.3 mo); 45.2% of pts remained on treatment. Confirmed ORR by ICR among the 42 pts was 61.9% (95% CI, 45.6%-76.4%); median DOR was not reached at data cutoff; 16 of 26 responders remained on treatment at data cutoff; DCR was 90.5% (95% CI, 77.4%-97.3%); estimated median PFS was 14.0 mo (95% CI, 6.4-14.0 mo). All pts (42/42) had treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs); 64.3% were grade ≥ 3 (52.4% drug-related), including decreased neutrophil count (26.2%) and anemia (16.7%). There were 5 cases (11.9%) of drug-related interstitial lung disease (ILD) as adjudicated by an independent committee (all grade 2, no grade ≥ 3) and 1 case of grade 1 ILD is pending adjudication. TEAEs led to dose interruption in 25 pts (59.5%), dose reduction in 16 pts (38.1%), and treatment discontinuation in 10 pts (23.8%). Conclusions: T-DXd demonstrated promising clinical activity with high ORR and durable responses in pts with HER2-mutated NSCLC. The safety profile was generally consistent with previously reported studies. Clinical trial information: NCT03505710 .

5018 Background: Despite CG therapy, most metastatic UC patients die from their disease. Novel approaches are needed. Combining anti-angiogenic therapy with chemotherapy has improved outcomes in other malignancies, offering hope for similar improvements in UC patients. Methods: Metastatic or unresectable chemonaive UC patients (pts) with an ECOG performance status of 0–1 received C 70 mg/m2 iv d1, G 1,000–1,250 mg/m2 iv d1, 8, and B 15 mg/kg iv d1 on a q21d cycle for up to 8 cycles. Gemcitabine was reduced to 1,000 mg/m2 iv d1, 8 for all subsequent pts after 7 thromboembolic events were noted in the first 17 pts. The primary endpoint was progression free survival (PFS). The trial was designed to detect a 33% improvement in PFS from 7.5 months with traditional CG therapy to 11.25 months with CGB. Results: By December 2008, 45 pts were enrolled, with 43 evaluable for toxicity, 36 for response. Demographics include: 33 (77%) male, 10 (23%) female; median age 66 (Range: 41 - 78); 26 (60%) and 17 (40%) ECOG 0/1; 19 (44%) and 24 (56%) lymph node only / visceral metastases. PFS will be evaluated in May 2009 when all pts will have more than 6 month follow-up data. 14 (33%) and 6 (14%) pts experienced grade 3 or 4 hematologic toxicity (4 pts - thrombocytopenia, 2 pts - neutropenic fever). Grade 3 or 4 nonhematologic toxicity was observed in 24 (56%) and 9 (21%) pts (DVT/PE - 9 pts, CNS hemorrhage/proteinuria/hypertension - 1 pt each) Best RECIST response was: complete response 6 pts (17%, 95% CI 6–33%), partial response 18 pts (50%, 95% CI 33–67%); with overall response rate of 67% (95% CI 51–82%). Stable disease lasting at least 12 weeks was observed in 10 pts (28%, 95% CI 14–45%) and progressive disease in 2 pts (5%, 95% CI 1–19%). Conclusions: CGB demonstrates significant clinical activity in the first-line treatment of metastatic UC patients at the expense of considerable toxicity. The durability of disease control will be determined by assessment of PFS. A phase III trial to further define the toxicity risk vs. clinical benefit of bevacizumab addition to platinum-based doublets is planned in this population. [Table: see text]

9000 Background: In the randomized phase 3 CheckMate 9LA trial (NCT03215706), first-line NIVO + IPI combined with 2 cycles of chemo significantly improved overall survival (OS), progression-free survival (PFS), and objective response rate (ORR) vs chemo alone (4 cycles). Clinical benefit was observed regardless of programmed death ligand 1 (PD-L1) expression level and histology. Here we report data with 2 years’ minimum follow-up from this study. Methods: Adult patients (pts) with stage IV / recurrent NSCLC, ECOG performance status ≤ 1, and no known sensitizing EGFR/ALK alterations were stratified by PD-L1 (< 1% vs ≥ 1%), sex, and histology (squamous vs non-squamous) and were randomized 1:1 to NIVO 360 mg Q3W + IPI 1 mg/kg Q6W + chemo (2 cycles; n = 361) or chemo alone (4 cycles; n = 358). Pts with non-squamous NSCLC in the chemo-alone arm could receive pemetrexed maintenance. The primary endpoint was OS. Secondary endpoints included PFS and ORR by blinded independent central review, and efficacy by different PD-L1 levels. Safety was exploratory. Results: At a minimum follow-up of 24.4 months for OS (database lock: Feb 18, 2021), pts treated with NIVO + IPI + chemo continued to derive OS benefit vs chemo, with a median OS of 15.8 months vs 11.0 months, respectively (HR, 0.72 [95% CI, 0.61–0.86]); 2-year OS rates were 38% vs 26%. Median PFS with NIVO + IPI + chemo vs chemo was 6.7 months vs 5.3 months (HR, 0.67 [95% CI, 0.56–0.79]); 8% and 37% of pts who had disease progression received subsequent immunotherapy, respectively. ORR was 38% with NIVO + IPI + chemo vs 25% with chemo. Similar clinical benefit with NIVO + IPI + chemo vs chemo was observed in all randomized pts and across the majority of subgroups, including by PD-L1 expression level (Table) or histology. Any grade and grade 3–4 treatment-related adverse events were reported in 92% and 48% of pts in the NIVO + IPI + chemo arm vs 88% and 38% in the chemo arm, respectively. Conclusion: With 2 years’ minimum follow-up, first-line NIVO + IPI + chemo demonstrated durable survival and benefit versus chemo in pts with advanced NSCLC; no new safety signals were identified. Clinical trial information: NCT03215706. [Table: see text]

7680 Background: Treatment options for previously treated NSCLC are limited, warranting consideration of novel combinations. This study evaluated the activity and toxicity of erlotinib with bortezomib, a proteasome inhibitor. Dosing was based on the approved indication for erlotinib and on phase I data for the combination. Methods: Patients (pts) with Stage IIIB/IV NSCLC who progressed following one prior line of chemotherapy, with no prior exposure to an EGF-receptor inhibitor and ECOG performance status 0 or 1 were randomly assigned to erlotinib 150 mg po daily alone (arm A) or in combination with bortezomib 1.6 mg/m2 iv on days 1 and 8 (arm B) of a 21-day cycle. Response was evaluated by RECIST and toxicity was graded using NCI CTCAE 3.0. A Simon optimal two-stage design was used to evaluate anti-tumor activity in response-evaluable pts. Results: Fifty pts were treated at 17 sites (January-June 2006); baseline characteristics and treatment intensity were comparable in both arms. Among 24 response-evaluable pts in each arm, there were 3 partial responses (PR) and 1 complete response in arm A and 2 PR in arm B. Median progression-free survival (PFS) was 2.7 and 1.4 months in arms A and B, respectively. The study was halted as required at the planned interim analysis due to insufficient clinical activity in arm B. Activity and toxicity in arm A were consistent with published reports for erlotinib alone. Adverse-event profiles were as expected in both arms, with no significant additivity. In arm B, one pt died of pneumonia. The most common grade 3 treatment-related toxicity was skin rash (12% arm A and 8% arm B), and rash severity correlated with PFS: grades 2/3, 2.8 months PFS (20 pts); grades 0/1, 1.4 months PFS (28 pts), p=0.032. In arm B, one pt each had grade 3 anorexia, hypokalemia, and worsened peripheral sensory neuropathy compared with baseline. There were no grade 4 treatment related toxicities in either arm. Conclusions: The combination of erlotinib and bortezomib in the doses and schedules used in this trial was well tolerated but did not show sufficient activity at this dose and schedule to warrant further development. No significant financial relationships to disclose.

e14614 Background: Conroy et al reported a significant improvement in overall survival of patients with metastatic pancreatic cancer treated with FOLFIRINOX compared to single agent gemcitabine. The regimen was associated with significant grade 3/ 4 toxicities, such as myelosuppression(46%), fatigue(24%), vomiting(15%) and diarrhea (13%). In order to improve the toxicity profile, we have modified FOLFIRINOX (mFOLFIRINOX) regimen by removing the bolus 5-FU and adding the routine use of growth factor prophylaxis. We present our experience with mFOLFIRINOX in patients with locally advanced or metastatic pancreatic cancer. Methods: After obtaining IRB approval, patients with a diagnosis of pancreatic cancer were identified from the Emory University tumor registry. Twenty eight patients who received at least one dose of mFOLFIRINOX (5-FU 2400 mg/m2 CIVI over 46 hours, leucovorin 400 mg/m2, oxaliplatin 85 mg/m2, irinotecan 180 mg/m2 and pegfilgrastim 6 mg every two weeks ) were selected and their charts were retrospectively reviewed for safety, response, and survival. Results: Of 28 patients, 14 (50%) were male, 18 (64%) white, 8 (29%) black and other 2(7%). Median age was 63 (50-75) and ECOG performance status 0-1. Nineteen (68%) patients had primary tumor located in head of pancreas. Eight patients (29%) experienced grade 3/4 toxicities, i.e., nausea/vomiting (11%), diarrhea (11%), fatigue (11%), neuropathy (4%), neutropenia (4%), thrombocytopenia(4%), and sepsis not-related to neutropenia (4%). No grade 3/4 anemia or febrile neutropenia was noted. mFOLFIRINOX controlled the disease in 20 patients (71%) with 2 CR, 4 PR and 14 SD. With a median follow up of 5.5 months, median overall or progression free survival is not reached. Two patients have died and six patients have progressed. Conclusions: Modified FOLFIRINOX is well tolerated in this US population. The clinical activity appears very promising with majority of patients being free of progression.

6009 Background: Uterine serous carcinoma (USC) is an aggressive subtype of endometrial carcinoma characterized by TP53 mutations ( > 90%), often concomitantly with oncogenic mutations or amplifications that can increase replication stress. As such, USC may therefore be uniquely sensitive to further interference of cell cycle regulation by Wee1 inhibition. This two-stage single arm Phase 2 study was conducted to assess the activity of the Wee1 inhibitor adavosertib as monotherapy in recurrent USC. Methods: Women with recurrent USC (defined as non-carcinosarcoma uterine cancers with any serous component) were eligible. Patients (pts) were required to have had at least one prior platinum-based chemotherapy regimen; those with known MSI-H/MMRd disease were required to have received prior PD1/PDL1 therapy or to be ineligible for such therapy. There was no upper limit on the number of prior lines pts could have received. All pts were required to have RECIST measurable disease. Pts received adavosertib 300mg daily on days 1 through 5 and 8 through 12 of a 21-day cycle. Coprimary endpoints were objective response and progression-free survival at 6 months (PFS6). Results: Between OCT-11-2018 and SEP-30-2019, 35 pts enrolled on study. Median follow-up is 4.6 months. The median number of prior lines was 3 (range 1-8). 34 pts were considered evaluable for response. In these pts, 9 confirmed and 1 unconfirmed responses were observed, for an ORR of 29.4% (95% CI 15.1-47.5%). The PFS at 6 months was 58.7% (95% CI: 39.5-73.7%). The median PFS is 6.1 months and the median duration of response is 9.0 months. Frequently observed Grade 3 or higher related adverse events included neutropenia (32.3%), anemia (20.6%), and fatigue (23.5%). Immunohistochemistry and targeted next-generation sequencing were performed to investigate potential biomarkers of response. Conclusions: Adavosertib monotherapy demonstrates promising clinical activity in women with USC. The observed monotherapy activity is higher than in other diseases, and additional exploration of the biology of Wee1 inhibition in USC is needed. Further studies of adavosertib in this patient population are planned. Clinical trial information: NCT03668340.

5567 Background: TAPUR is a phase II basket study evaluating anti-tumor activity of commercially available targeted agents in pts with advanced cancers with genomic alterations. Advanced prostate cancer (PC) pts with germline or somatic BRCA1/2 inactivating mutations treated with O are reported. Methods: Eligible pts had advanced PC, no remaining standard treatment (tx) options, measurable disease, ECOG Performance Status (PS) 0-2, and adequate organ function. Tumor genomic testing was performed in CLIA-certified, CAP-accredited site selected labs. Pts received O tablets or capsules dosed at 300 mg (n=24) or 400 mg (n=5), respectively, orally twice daily until disease progression. Simon 2-stage design tested the null disease control (DC) (objective response (OR) or stable disease at 16+ weeks (wks) (SD16+) according to RECIST) rate of 15% vs. 35% (power = 0.85; α = 0.10). If ≥2 of 10 pts in stage 1 have DC, 18 more pts are enrolled. If ≥7 of 28 pts have DC, the tx is worthy of further study. Pts had radiographic evaluations at 8 and 16 wks and then every 12 wks. Secondary endpoints are progression-free survival (PFS), overall survival (OS) and safety. Results: 29 pts with BRCA1/2 inactivating mutations were enrolled from Aug 2016 to Jul 2019; 4 were identified as ineligible after enrollment due to bone only disease and removed from analyses. Demographics and investigator-reported outcomes are summarized in the Table. Nine pts with OR and 8 with SD16+ were observed for DC and OR rates of 68% (90% CI: 53% - 77%) and 36% (95% CI: 18% - 57%), respectively. Six pts had at least one grade 3 AE or SAE at least possibly related to O including anemia, aspiration, dehydration, diabetic ketoacidosis, fatigue, and neutropenia. Conclusions: Monotherapy with O showed anti-tumor activity in heavily pre-treated PC pts with germline (1/2 pts with OR or SD16+) or somatic (16/23 pts with OR or SD16+) BRCA1/2 inactivating mutations. These findings extend results from recent trials of O in advanced prostate cancer pts with germline only BRCA1/2 mutations. Clinical trial information: NCT02693535 . [Table: see text]

Patients with neuroendocrine carcinomas (NECs) grade 3 have a poor prognosis. Etoposide–platinum combination is the standard chemotherapy but the role of a second-line therapy remains unknown. Irinotecan alone or in combination has shown some efficacy in patients treated for small cell lung cancer which had pathological similarities with neuroendocine tumors. The aim of this study is to determine safety and efficacy of the FOLFIRI regimen in patients with NECs grade 3 after failure of etoposide–platinum combination. This study was retrospective, including patients with NECs grade 3 and treated with the FOLFIRI regimen after progression or toxicity of etoposide–platinum combination in first-line. Patients with Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status ≥3 and/or serum alkaline phosphatase ≥5×upper limit of normal value (ULN) and/or bilirubin ≥1.5×ULN were excluded. Among 39 patients who failed etoposide–platinum combination, 19 (49%; 12 women, median age 53 (29–78) years) received the FOLFIRI regimen with a median number of 6 (1–16) courses. Six patients (31%) had at least one episode of grades 3–4 toxicity (neutropenia, n=3; diarrhea, n=3) without toxic death. Six patients (31%) had objective response, 6 (31%) stable disease, and 7 (38%) tumor progression. Median progression-free survival under FOLFIRI was 4 months. Overall survival was 18 vs 6.8 months in noneligible patients. FOLFIRI regimen is a safe and potentially efficient chemotherapy given as second-line in patients with NECs grade 3 who remain in good condition and with correct liver tests after failure of etoposide–platinum combination. These results should be confirmed in a future prospective study.

7551 Background: Axitinib is a potent and selective second-generation inhibitor of VEGF receptors 1, 2, and 3 that has promising single-agent activity in advanced NSCLC. Efficacy and safety of axitinib (in 2 dosing schedules) combined with pem/ciswere evaluatedfor non-squamous NSCLC. Methods: Patients with confirmed stage IIIB, IV, or recurrent non-squamous NSCLC and ECOG performance status (PS) 0 or 1 were stratified by gender and PS, and randomized 1:1:1 to receive six 21-day cycles of axitinib continuously plus pem/cis (arm I); axitinib on Days 2 through 19 followed by a 3-day interruption plus pem/cis (arm II); or pem/cis alone (arm III). Axitinib was administered at a starting dose of 5 mg BID. Pem/cis (500/75 mg/m2) was infused on Day 1 of each cycle. Primary endpoint was progression-free survival (PFS). Results: Baseline characteristics of patients in arm I (n=55), arm II (n=58), or arm III (n=57) ranged between 59–62 yr median age; 62–65% male; 71–85% White; 73–85% current/ex-smokers; and 43–47% PS 0. There were no significant differences in PFS or overall survival (OS) between axitinib-containing arms I and II compared with pem/cis alone, but objective response rates (ORR) were higher (Table). Most common all causality grade 3 adverse events (AEs) in arm I, II, and III, respectively, were hypertension (20%, 17%, 0%); neutropenia (18%, 10%, 9%); nausea (16%, 5%, 7%); vomiting (13%, 5%, 4%); fatigue (11%,16%,16%); and anemia (7%, 14%, 9%). Grade 4 AEs observed in >1 patient were asthenia and pulmonary embolism (2 patients each in arm II). Conclusions: Axitinib combined with pem/cis was generally well tolerated, but efficacy was not significantly better than pem/cis alone in non-squamous NSCLC. [Table: see text]

299 Background: Currently, there are no standard treatments for relapsed or refractory urothelial carcinoma (UC). Discouraging results have been achieved in trials evaluating drugs as single agents or in combination regimens. Paclitaxel has activity when used alone and in combination in urothelial cancer, and pazopanib is active in solid tumors secondary to its potent anti-angiogenic effect. We report the results of an ongoing multicenter phase II study evaluating the combination of paclitaxel with pazopanib in refractory UC. Methods: Patients (pts) eligible for the study have histologically confirmed UC, with relapse after receiving up to 2 chemotherapeutic regimens. Pazopanib (800 mg) is administered daily, with weekly paclitaxel (80mg/m2) for 3 weeks in a 28 day cycle. Treatment is continued until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Primary endpoint of the study is the response-rate (RR) based on RECIST criteria. Secondary endpoints include safety, and progression free-survival (PFS). For designing the study, Simon’s two-stage method was applied, and 9 pts were recruited in the first stage. After having ≥1 response in the first group, a full enrollment of 32 pts has been initiated. Results: 25 pts were enrolled from April 2010 to September 2013. Their median age was 67 years (47-89), with a median ECOG performance status of 1 (0-2). 10 pts (40%) had UC of the upper urinary tract and 15 had primary bladder/ureter tumors. All pts had multiple metastatic sites, including 11 (44%) with liver metastases. Median number of prior cytotoxic regimens was 2, and 50% were considered cisplatin responsive. Based on RECIST (v1.1) criteria,13 pts (52%) had partial response (PR), 5 (20%) had stable disease (SD), and 2 (8%) had complete response (CR) (80% clinical benefit). The side effects included grade 3 hypertension (n=2), grade 3 fatigue (n=4), grade 3 thrombosis (n=2) and grade 4 neutropenia (n=2). 14 pts required growth factor support. Conclusions: Our phase II study combining paclitaxel and pazopanib demonstratedsignificant anti-tumor activity of combining paclitaxel in relapsed/refractory UC. This combination is safe, and is worthy of evaluation in larger studies. Clinical trial information: 1108055.

166 Background: Avelumab, a human anti-PD-L1 IgG1 monoclonal antibody, is approved for treatment of metastatic Merkel cell carcinoma (US and EU) and advanced urothelial carcinoma progressed on platinum therapy (US). Here, we report updated phase 1b data for avelumab in patients (pts) with previously treated mesothelioma. Methods: Pts with unresectable pleural or peritoneal mesothelioma whose disease had progressed after platinum and pemetrexed therapy received avelumab 10 mg/kg IV Q2W until progression, unacceptable toxicity, or withdrawal. Tumors were assessed every 6 wks (RECIST 1.1). Endpoints included objective response rate (ORR), progression-free survival (PFS), overall survival (OS), and adverse events (AEs; NCI CTCAE v4.0). Results: As of Dec 31, 2016, 53 pts were treated and followed for a median of 24.8 mos (range 16.8–27.8). Median age was 67 y (range 32–84). Pts had received a median of 2 prior lines of therapy (range 1–8). Confirmed ORR was 9.4% (95% CI 3.1–20.7; complete response in 1.9%, partial response in 7.5%). In pts with 1 (n = 18), 2 (n = 15) or ≥3 (n = 20) prior lines of therapy, ORR was 5.6%, 13.3% and 10.0% respectively. Median duration of response was 15.2 mos (95% CI 11.1–not estimable). 26 pts (49.1%) had stable disease as best response and the disease control rate was 58.5%. Median PFS was 4.1 mos (95% CI 1.4–6.2) and the 6-mo PFS rate was 38.0% (95% CI 24.2–51.7). Median OS was 10.9 mos (95% CI 7.5–21.0) and the 12-mo OS rate was 45.9% (95% CI 31.9–58.8). In evaluable pts with PD-L1+ (n = 16) and PD-L1− (n = 27) tumors (≥5% tumor cell cutoff), ORR was 18.8% (95% CI 4.0–45.6) and 7.4% (95% CI 0.9–24.3), and the 6-mo PFS rate was 37.5% (95% CI 14.1–61.2) and 42.0% (95% CI 23.1–59.8). 43 pts (81.1%) had a treatment-related (TR)AE, most commonly ( > 10%) infusion-related reaction (35.8%; all grade 1/2), chills (15.1%), fatigue (15.1%) and pyrexia (11.3%). 5 pts (9.4%) had a grade ≥3 TRAE. 14 pts (26.4%) had an immune-related AE, which was grade ≥3 in 3 pts (5.7%; pneumonitis, colitis, and type 1 diabetes mellitus). No treatment-related deaths occurred. Conclusions: Avelumab showed clinical activity and acceptable safety in pts with previously treated mesothelioma. Clinical trial information: NCT01772004.
