e15638 Background: Larotrectinib is a highly selective TRK inhibitor that demonstrated high response rates and durable disease control in three phase I/II single-arm studies of patients (pts) with TRK fusion cancer. While single-arm studies are often used for rare cancer populations, they do not provide comparative data. GMI utilizes pts as their own control and can be used in this setting. GMI is the ratio of progression-free survival (PFS) on the current therapy to time to progression (TTP) on the most recent prior line of therapy. A GMI ≥1.33 has been used as a threshold of meaningful clinical activity. We report GMI for TRK fusion cancer pts treated with larotrectinib. Methods: Data were pooled from 3 clinical trials of pts with TRK fusion cancer treated with larotrectinib. A retrospective, exploratory analysis of GMI was conducted in pts who had been on larotrectinib and followed up for ≥6 mos or pts who discontinued early, and had ≥1 prior line of systemic treatment for locally advanced or metastatic disease. TTP on the prior line of therapy was investigator assessed. PFS on larotrectinib was determined by independent review committee per RECIST 1.1. Pts who had not progressed were not censored from the analysis. Results: As of July 15, 2019, 122 pts were eligible for analysis. Fifteen different tumor types were represented, the most common being soft tissue sarcoma in 26 pts (21%), infantile fibrosarcoma in 22 (18%), and thyroid in 21 (17%). Median GMI was 3.35 (range 0.00–337.00; Table); In metastatic pts (n = 81), the proportion with a GMI ≥1.33 was higher in pts with a complete or partial response vs non-responders (88% vs 42%). In the whole analysis set (N = 122), median TTP on prior line of treatment was 2.7 mos (95% CI 2.0–3.1) and median PFS on larotrectinib was 33.4 mos (95% CI 13.8–NE; HR 0.20 [95% CI 0.14–0.29]). In metastatic pts (n = 81), median TTP on prior line of treatment was 2.3 mos (95% CI 1.9–3.0) and median PFS on larotrectinib was 23.4 mos (95% CI 10.9–NE; HR 0.24 [95% CI 0.16–0.36]). Conclusions: Greater than two-thirds of pts with TRK fusion cancer treated with larotrectinib had a GMI ≥1.33, demonstrating a clinically meaningful improvement in PFS compared to TTP on their prior treatment.

Randomized controlled basket trials investigating drugs targeting a rare molecular alteration are challenging. Using patients as their own control overcomes some of these challenges. Growth modulation index (GMI) is the ratio of progression-free survival (PFS) on the current therapy to time to progression (TTP) on the last prior line of therapy; GMI ≥ 1.33 is considered a threshold of meaningful clinical activity. In a retrospective, exploratory analysis among patients with advanced tropomyosin receptor kinase (TRK) fusion cancer treated with the selective TRK inhibitor larotrectinib who received ≥1 prior line of therapy for locally advanced/metastatic disease, we determined the proportion of patients with GMI ≥ 1.33; patients who had not progressed by data cut-off were censored for PFS. Among 72 eligible patients, median GMI was 2.68 (range 0.01–48.75). Forty-seven patients (65%) had GMI ≥ 1.33; 13/25 patients (52%) with GMI < 1.33 had not yet progressed on larotrectinib. Kaplan–Meier estimates showed a median GMI of 6.46. The probability of attaining GMI ≥ 1.33 was 0.75 (95% confidence interval (CI), 0.65–0.85). Median TTP on previous treatment was 3.0 months (95% CI, 2.6–4.4). Median PFS on larotrectinib was not estimable ((NE); 95% CI, NE; hazard ratio, 0.220 (95% CI, 0.146–0.332)). This analysis suggests larotrectinib improves PFS for patients with TRK fusion cancer compared with prior therapy.

3114 Background: Larotrectinib is a highly selective, CNS-active tropomyosin receptor kinase (TRK) inhibitor that demonstrated rapid and durable responses in three phase I/II single-arm studies of patients (pts) with TRK fusion cancer. In single-arm studies the growth modulation index (GMI) can be used to provide a comparative analysis. GMI is an intra-patient comparison that uses pts as their own control by comparing progression-free survival (PFS) on current therapy to time to progression or treatment failure (TTP) on the most recent prior therapy; namely the ratio of PFS/TTP (EMA Guidelines. Guideline on the Evaluation of Anticancer Medicinal Products in Man, EMA/CHMP/205/95 Rev.5). A GMI ratio ≥1.33 has been used as a threshold of meaningful clinical activity. In a previous analysis of 122 pts with TRK fusion cancer treated with larotrectinib, 84 pts (69%) had a GMI ≥1.33. Conversely, 38 pts (31%) had a GMI < 1.33, but of these, 9 pts were ongoing treatment and censored for PFS as of July 2019 (Italiano et al, ESMO 2020). Here, we report the GMI of this initial group with a longer follow-up as well as an expanded dataset to more accurately assess the treatment effect of larotrectinib in pts with TRK fusion cancer previously treated with ≥1 line of therapy. Methods: Pts with TRK fusion cancer from three clinical trials on larotrectinib treatment with ≥1 prior line of systemic therapy were eligible for retrospective GMI analysis. TTP on the prior line of therapy was investigator-assessed. PFS on larotrectinib was determined by independent review committee per RECIST v1.1. Pts who had not progressed were censored as of date of last visit. Kaplan–Meier (KM) analyses were used to estimate median GMI, in addition to median PFS and TTP. The data cut-off was July 2020. Results: With an extended follow up of the original 122 pts, 90 (74%) pts had a GMI ≥1.33, including 6 of the 9 pts who were previously censored with a GMI < 1.33 and ongoing treatment; 6 pts (5%) had a GMI ≥1 to < 1.33 and 26 (21%) had a GMI < 1. The KM estimated median GMI increased from 7.6 (95% CI 5.7–88.0) to 9.5 (95% CI 5.7–17.4). In the expanded dataset of 140 pts, 103 pts (74%) had GMI ≥1.33, 7 (5%) had a GMI ≥1 to < 1.33 and 30 (21%) had a GMI < 1. Six of the 37 pts with a GMI < 1.33 were censored and still ongoing treatment. The KM estimated median GMI was 8.9 (95% CI 6.2–17.4). Among pts who had received 1, 2, or ≥3 prior lines of therapy, 74%, 65%, and 80%, respectively, had GMI of ≥1.33. Median TTP on the prior therapy was 3.0 months (95% CI 2.1–3.5) and median PFS on larotrectinib was 33.0 months (95% CI 16.6–34.9). Conclusions: With a longer follow-up, nearly three-quarters of pts with TRK fusion cancer treated with larotrectinib had a prolonged PFS compared to their most recent prior therapy. These results further validate the use of larotrectinib in treating patients with TRK fusion cancer. Clinical trial information: NCT02576431, NCT02122913, NCT02637687.

5508 Background: MTC arises from parafollicular cells of the thyroid gland, accounts for 5-8% of thyroid cancers and represents an unmet medical need. Cabozantinib (cabo) is an oral inhibitor of MET, VEGFR2, and RET. We conducted a phase III study of cabo vs placebo (P) in pts with progressive, unresectable, locally advanced or metastatic MTC. Methods: Eligible pts were required to have documented RECIST progression within 14 months of screening. The primary efficacy measure was progression-free survival (PFS) as assessed by an independent review facility (IRF) using RECIST. Secondary efficacy measures included objective response rate (ORR) and overall survival (OS). The study has 90% power to detect a 75% increase in PFS and 80% power to detect a 50% increase in OS. Tumor assessments occurred every 12 weeks. Crossover between treatment arms was not allowed. Results: Between Sept 2008 and Feb 2011, 330 pts (median age 55 yrs; 67% male; 96% measureable disease; RET mutation status: pos 48%; neg 12%; unknown 39%; prior TKI exposure: yes 21%, no 78%, unknown 2%) were randomized 2:1 to cabo (140 mg free base [175 mg salt form] qd; n=219) or P (n=111). The planned primary PFS analysis included events through the date of the 138th event. As of 15June2011, 44.7% of pts on cabo and 13.5% on P were still receiving study treatment. Statistically significant PFS prolongation of 7.2 mo was observed; median PFS for cabo was 11.2 mo vs 4.0 mo for P (HR 0.28, 95% CI 0.19-0.40, p<0.0001). PFS results favored the cabo group across subset analyses including RET status and prior TKI use. ORR was 28% for cabo vs 0% for P (p<0.0001). An interim analysis of OS (44% of the 217 required events) did not show a difference between cabo and P. The most frequent grade ≥3 adverse events (cabo vs P) were diarrhea (15.9 vs 1.8%), palmar-plantar erythrodysesthesia (12.6 vs 0%), fatigue (9.3 vs 2.8%), hypocalcemia (9.3 vs 0%), and hypertension (7.9 vs 0%). Conclusions: This phase III study met its primary objective of demonstrating substantial PFS prolongation with cabo vs. P in a patient population with MTC and documented progressive disease in need of therapeutic intervention.

4096 Background: Regorafenib (R) has shown promising efficacy in patients (pts) with BTC refractory to standard chemotherapy. Anti-PD1/PD-L1 antibodies have only limited clinical activity. Synergy between R and anti–PD-1/PD-L1 antibodies has been shown in pre-clinical solid tumor models. Methods: This is a single-arm open-label multicentric phase II trial (Bayesian adaptive design) assessing the efficacy and safety of R (160 mg QD 3weeks/4) + avelumab (A) (10 mg/kg every 2 weeks) combination in BTC pts. The primary endpoint was the objective response rate under treatment, based on central review according to RECIST 1.1. Secondary endpoints included: 1-year progression free survival (PFS), 1-year overall survival (OS), and Safety using NCI-CTCAE v5.0. Correlative studies were planned from pts tumor samples obtained at baseline. Results: Between Nov. 2018 and Nov. 2019, 34 BTC pts were enrolled in 4 centers. Median age was 63 (range 36 – 80). Median follow-up was 9.8 months. Median number of previous treatment lines for metastatic or locally advanced disease was: 2 (range 1 – 4). Twenty-nine (85.3%) pts experienced at least 1 dose modification or treatment interruption of R or A due to an adverse event (AE) related to the treatment. The most common grade 3/4 AEs were : Hypertension (17.6%), Fatigue (14.7%), and maculo-papular rash (11.8%). No death was related to the treatment. Among the 29 pts with at least one imaging tumor assessment, 4 (13.8%) achieved a partial response, and 11 (37.9%) demonstrated stable disease including 10 (34.5%) pts with tumor shrinkage. Fourteen pts (48.3%) had progressive disease. The median PFS and OS were 2.5 months (95%CI 1.9 – 5.5) and 11.9 months (95%CI 6.2 – NA) respectively. Baseline tumor samples were available for 27 pts. High IDO and PD-L1 expression at baseline was associated with better outcome. Conclusions: The R+A combination is associated with significant anti-tumor activity with promising survival rates in this heavily pre-treated population. Full Biomarkers analyses will be presented at the meeting. Clinical trial information: NCT03475953.

e16006 Background: FTD/TPI, an antimetabolite, is approved for treatment of refractory mGEC. This study sought to determine whether the combination of FTD/TPI with IRI (“TASIRI”) was safe and effective in mGEC previously treated with FP. Methods: This investigator‐initiated, multicenter, open‐label, single-dose level, single‐arm phase 1b study enrolled pts with mGEC previously treated with at least one line of FP containing regimen. FTD/TPI was given at 25 mg/m2 twice daily on days 1 to 5 with 180 mg/m2 IRI on day 1 of a 14‐day cycle. The primary endpoint was progression-free survival at six months (mo) (PFS-6). The aim was to show an improvement of PFS-6 from 15% to at least 30% based on historical controls. Results: At the time of data-cutoff (03Feb2021), 23 pts were screened and ultimately 20 pts were treated. The study met its primary endpoint. With a median follow-up of 9.8 mo (range 0.7 – 17), 8 pts are still on treatment and 4 pts have died. PFS-6 is 53.9% (lower limit of 95% CI: 28%). Median PFS and overall survival are 6.9 mo and not reached, respectively. At the time of data-cutoff, data were available for 13 pts with measurable disease by RECIST criteria and at least 1 on-treatment scan. Of those, 11 had stable disease and 2 had progressive disease as best response (5 pts had tumor shrinkage < 30%), therefore the disease control rate was 84.6%. The most common any grade (G) treatment related adverse events (TRAE) were nausea (n = 14, 70%), diarrhea (n = 9, 45%), and fatigue (n = 8, 40%). G3-4 TRAE in > 5% of pts were anemia (17%) and neutropenia (9%). 2 serious TRAE were reported: G4 febrile neutropenia (n = 1) and G3 hypotension (n = 1). There was no G5 TRAE. Conclusions: The combination of TASIRI showed encouraging clinical activity with a meaningful improvement in PFS-6 compared to historic controls. TASIRI was well tolerated and no new safety signals were seen. TASIRI warrants further investigation for patients with refractory mGEC and limited treatment options. Updated results with longer follow-up will be presented at the meeting. Clinical trial information: NCT04074343.

4525 Background: Anti-PD-L1 immunotherapy shows promising clinical activity in UC. We report a planned update of the safety and efficacy of durvalumab in patients (pts) with locally advanced/metastatic UC from a multicenter, phase 1/2 open-label study. Methods: Pts received durvalumab 10 mg/kg every 2 weeks (Q2W) up to 12 months (mo) or until unacceptable toxicity, progression, or starting another anticancer therapy. Primary endpoints were safety and confirmed objective response rate (ORR) by blinded independent central review (RECIST v1.1). Duration of response (DoR), progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) were key secondary endpoints. Tumor PD-L1 expression was assessed by Ventana SP263 assay (PD-L1 high = ≥25% PD-L1 expression on tumor or immune cells). Results: As of Oct 24, 2016 (data cutoff [DCO]), 191 pts had received treatment. Median follow-up was 5.78 mo (range, 0.4–25.9). All pts had Stage 4 disease and 99.5% had prior anticancer therapy (95.3% post-platinum). As of DCO, ORR was 17.8% (34/191), including 7 CRs, with responses observed regardless of PD-L1 status (Table). Responses occurred early (median time to response, 1.41 mo) and were durable (median DoR not reached [NR]). Median PFS and OS were 1.5 mo (95% CI, 1.4, 1.9) and 18.2 mo (95% CI, 8.1, not estimable [NE]), respectively; the 1-year OS rate was 55.0% (95% CI, 43.9%, 64.7%). Grade 3/4 treatment-related AEs occurred in 6.8% of pts; grade 3/4 immune-mediated (im)AEs occurred in 4 pts; 2 pts discontinued due to imAEs (acute kidney injury and autoimmune hepatitis). Conclusions: Durvalumab 10 mg/kg Q2W shows favorable clinical activity and an excellent safety profile in locally advanced/metastatic UC pts. Table. Antitumor activity in UC pts, including second-line or greater (≥2L) post-platinum pts Clinical trial information: NCT01693562. [Table: see text]

278 Background: We report the primary analysis of JAVELIN Gastric 100, which compared avelumab (anti–PD-L1) maintenance after 1L CTx vs continued CTx in patients (pts) with GC/GEJC. Methods: In this global, open-label, phase 3 trial (NCT02625610), eligible pts had previously untreated, unresectable, locally advanced/metastatic (LA/M) HER2− GC/GEJC. Pts without progressive disease (PD) after 12 weeks of 1L oxaliplatin/fluoropyrimidine induction were randomized 1:1 to avelumab 10 mg/kg Q2W switch maintenance or continued CTx, stratified by region (Asia vs non-Asia). Primary endpoint was overall survival (OS) post induction in all randomized or PD-L1+ (≥1% of tumor cells, 73-10 assay) pts. Results: 805 pts received induction CTx and 499 pts were randomized (avelumab, n = 249; CTx, n = 250). At data cutoff (Sep 13, 2019), minimum follow-up was 18 months. In the avelumab and CTx arms, median OS post induction/randomization was 10.4 months (95% CI 9.1-12.0) vs 10.9 months (95% CI 9.6-12.4), hazard ratio (HR) 0.91 (95% CI 0.74-1.11; p = 0.1779); 24-month OS rates were 22.1% (95% CI 16.8-28.0) vs 15.5% (95% CI 10.8-20.9), respectively. The HR for OS in PD-L1+ pts (n = 54) was 1.13 (95% CI 0.57-2.23). No OS trend was seen in Asian pts (n = 114; HR 0.90 [95% CI 0.59-1.36]) or other subgroups, except for a potential benefit with avelumab in pts with no metastatic sites at randomization (n = 60; HR 0.52 [95% CI 0.28-0.98]). Progression-free survival was similar between arms (HR 1.04 [95% CI 0.85-1.28]). In the avelumab vs CTx arms, objective response rates (post randomization only) were 13.3% (95% CI 9.3-18.1) vs 14.4% (95% CI 10.3-19.4), and 12-month rates for duration of response were 62.3% (95% CI 40.9-77.9) vs 28.4% (95% CI 13.2-45.7), respectively. Treatment-related adverse event rates (all grades/grade ≥3) were 61.3%/12.8% with avelumab and 77.3%/32.8% with CTx. Conclusions: Avelumab maintenance showed clinical activity and favorable safety vs continued CTx in pts with LA/M GE/GEJC; however, JAVELIN Gastric 100 did not meet its primary objective of demonstrating superior OS in the randomized or PD-L1+ population. Clinical trial information: NCT02625610.

Background Pancreatic neuroendocrine tumours (pnets) often present as advanced disease. The optimal sequence of therapy is unknown. Methods Sequential patients with advanced pnets referred to BC Cancer between 2000 and 2013 who received 1 or more treatment modalities were reviewed, and treatment patterns, progression-free survival (pfs), and overall survival (os) were characterized. Systemic treatments included chemotherapy, small-molecule therapy, and peptide receptor radiotherapy. Results In 66 cases of advanced pnets, median patient age was 61.2 years (25%–75% interquartile range: 50.8–66.2 years), and men constituted 47% of the group. First-line therapies were surgery (36%), chemotherapy (33%), and somatostatin analogues (32%). Compared with first-line systemic therapy, surgery in the first line was associated with increased pfs and os (20.6 months vs. 6.3 months and 100.3 months vs. 30.5 months respectively, p < 0.05). In 42 patients (64%) who received more than 1 line of therapy, no difference in os or pfs between second-line therapies was observed. Conclusions Our results confirm the primary role of surgery for advanced pnets. New systemic treatments will further increase options.

Mutant Idh1

PURPOSE Surgery is the primary therapy for localized chondrosarcoma; for locally advanced and/or metastatic disease, no known effective systemic therapy exists. Mutations in the isocitrate dehydrogenase 1/2 (IDH1/2) enzymes occur in up to 65% of chondrosarcomas, resulting in accumulation of the oncometabolite D-2-hydroxyglutarate (2-HG). Ivosidenib (AG-120) is a selective inhibitor of mutant IDH1 approved in the United States for specific cases of acute myeloid leukemia. We report outcomes of patients with advanced chondrosarcoma in an ongoing study exploring ivosidenib treatment. PATIENTS AND METHODS This phase I multicenter open-label dose-escalation and expansion study of ivosidenib monotherapy enrolled patients with mutant IDH1 advanced solid tumors, including chondrosarcoma. Ivosidenib was administered orally (100 mg twice daily to 1,200 mg once daily) in continuous 28-day cycles. Responses were assessed every other cycle using RECIST (version 1.1). RESULTS Twenty-one patients (escalation, n = 12; expansion, n = 9) with advanced chondrosarcoma received ivosidenib (women, n = 8; median age, 55 years; range, 30-88 years; 11 had received prior systemic therapy). Treatment-emergent adverse events (AEs) were mostly grade 1 or 2. Twelve patients experienced grade ≥ 3 AEs; only one event was judged treatment related (hypophosphatemia, n = 1). Plasma 2-HG levels decreased substantially in all patients (range, 14%-94.2%), to levels seen in healthy individuals. Median progression-free survival (PFS) was 5.6 months (95% CI, 1.9 to 7.4 months); the PFS rate at 6 months was 39.5%. Eleven (52%) of 21 patients experienced stable disease. CONCLUSION In patients with chondrosarcoma, ivosidenib showed minimal toxicity, substantial 2-HG reduction, and durable disease control. Future studies of ivosidenib monotherapy or rational combination approaches should be considered in patients with advanced mutant IDH1 chondrosarcoma.

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.
