e16001 Background: The FRESCO phase 3 trial demonstrated a significant survival benefit with fruquintinib vs. placebo in the third-line or later therapy of mCRC patients. CEA levels are widely used in conjunction with imaging to monitor response to systemic therapy in patients with mCRC. Herein, we undertook post-hoc analyses of FRESCO patient data to investigate the early changes in CEA during treatment, as well as potential relationships with efficacy parameters. Methods: Patients were included if baseline CEA was abnormal according to local lab reference range. Serum CEA levels were measured at baseline and Day 1 of each cycle (except for Cycle 1). Early CEA change was analyzed at first radiological evaluation (C3D1, Week 8), CEA response was defined as ≥ 50% decrease from baseline, and CEA progression was defined as ≥ 100% increase from baseline. Overall survival (OS) and progression-free survival (PFS) were evaluated by Kaplan-Meier method; hazard ratio (HR) was estimated through Cox proportional hazards model; p-value was generated from log rank test. Results: 88.4% (245/277) and 94.9% (130/137) of patients had an abnormal baseline CEA in the fruquintinib group and placebo group, respectively. Median baseline CEA values were similar between treatment groups. After 2 cycles of treatment, the proportion of patients had CEA response was significantly higher in the fruquintinib group than placebo group (30.0% vs. 1.3%, p < 0.001). In the fruquintinib group, patients with early CEA response (n = 63) had longer median OS (12.8 vs. 7.8 months, HR = 0.45, p < 0.001) and median PFS (5.6 vs. 3.7 months, HR = 0.49, p < 0.001) than patients without (n = 147). 66.7% (140/210) of patients in fruquintinib group had stable disease (SD), and fruquintinib in those patients with concomitant CEA response exhibited a significantly greater OS benefit than with CEA progression (14.4 vs. 8.7 months, HR = 0.38, p = 0.004). Conclusions: Fruquintinib increased early CEA response. CEA response at first radiological evaluation after cycle 2 could be considered as a predictor for better OS and PFS. Among patients with SD at first evaluation, those with CEA response seems benefit more from fruquintinib. Clinical trial information: NCT02314819 .

5042 Background: Sunitinib demonstrated superior progression-free survival (PFS; the primary endpoint) over interferon-alfa (IFN-α) as first-line mRCC therapy (NEJM 2007;356:115). Median overall survival (OS) with sunitinib compared to IFN-α was: 26.4 vs. 21.8 months (HR=0.821; P=0.051 by unstratified log-rank test; Proc ASCO 2008;26, May 20 suppl; abstr 5024). An analysis of prognostic factors for OS was performed on data from this trial. Methods: 750 treatment-naïve mRCC patients were randomized 1:1 to receive sunitinib or IFN-α. By Cox proportional hazards model, selected pretreatment variables were evaluated univariately and in a multivariate model for each treatment arm. Multivariate models for each treatment arm were based on a stepwise algorithm with a type I error of 0.25 for entry and 0.15 for elimination. Further elimination was applied to identify variables significant at P<0.05. Results: In multivariate analysis of sunitinib patients, factors associated with longer OS include: interval from diagnosis to treatment ≥1 yr, ECOG PS of 0, lower corrected calcium, absence of bone metastases, lower lactic dehydrogenase (LDH), and higher hemoglobin (Hgb) ( table ). For the IFN-α treatment arm, male gender, absence of bone or lymph node metastases, lower LDH, higher Hgb, lower corrected calcium, higher neutrophil count, and interval from diagnosis to treatment ≥1 yr were associated with longer OS. Conclusions: For patients in the sunitinib treatment arm, prognostic factors identified were similar to the factors previously identified in the MSKCC risk groups (J Clin Oncol 2002;20:289). Additional prognostic factors were identified for the IFN-α arm. Further studies are warranted to independently validate these findings as well as to identify tumor-specific prognostic factors.

4058^ Background: nab-P + G showed promising efficacy in a phase I/II study in MPC, and decreases in CA19-9 correlated with OS. In MPACT, patients (pts) who received nab-P + G vs G had improved median OS (8.5 vs 6.7 mo; HR 0.72; p = 0.000015), PFS (5.5 vs 3.7 mo; HR 0.69; p = 0.000024) and ORR (23% vs 7%; p = 1.1 × 10−10). Here we present a prespecified exploratory analysis of CA19-9 from the MPACT trial. Methods: 861 previously untreated pts with MPC were randomized 1:1 to receive nab-P 125 mg/m2 + G 1000 mg/m2 days 1, 8, and 15 every 4 weeks or G alone 1000 mg/m2 weekly for 7 weeks followed by a week of rest (cycle 1) and then days 1, 8, and 15 every 4 weeks (cycle ≥ 2). CA19-9 was evaluated at baseline and then every 8 weeks. OS comparisons at different CA19-9 criteria were performed by stratified Cox proportional hazards model (P by stratified log-rank test using randomization criteria). Results: 750 pts had an evaluable CA19-9 at baseline. More pts in the nab-P + G arm vs the G arm demonstrated a best CA19-9 decrease from baseline of ≥ 20% and ≥ 90% (61% vs 44% and 31% vs 14%, respectively; Table). At the first postbaseline assessment (week 8), greater proportions of pts in the nab-P + G arm vs the G arm had CA19-9 decreases of ≥ 20% and ≥ 90% (Table). At that time point, for pts with a decrease of ≥ 20% in CA19-9, nab-P + G demonstrated a significantly longer OS vs G. The risk reduction for pts with a ≥ 90% decrease was greater than in pts with a ≥ 20% decrease. In pts with an 8-week CA19-9 decrease < 20%, median OS for nab-P + G vs G was 8.3 vs 8.0 mo (HR 0.92; p = 0.705). The relationship of CA19-9 kinetics with OS will also be examined. Conclusions: Higher proportions of pts in the nab-P + G arm had CA 19-9 responses of ≥ 20% and ≥ 90% vs the G arm. Pts who achieved a CA19-9 decrease at 8 weeks of ≥ 20% or ≥ 90% had significantly longer OS with nab-P + G than with G. Clinical trial information: NCT00844649. [Table: see text]

Morphologic Response

743 Background: It was reported that an optimal morphologic response to preoperative chemotherapy was associated with better overall survival (OS) in patients (pts) with colorectal liver metastases (CLM). We investigated association of morphologic response with progression free survival (PFS) in pts with unresectable CLM from HGCSG0802 observational cohort study in pts with mCRC treated with first-line bevacizumab (BV)-based chemotherapy. Methods: The objective of HGCSG0802 was to evaluate PFS, OS, time to treatment failure (TTF), response rate (RR), safety, etc. The key eligibility criteria were evaluable lesions, older than 20 years old, ECOG PS 0-2. Pts with CLM underwent contrast-enhanced CT at the start and every 8-weeks of BV-based chemotherapy. In this analysis, three blinded, independent radiologists evaluated images for morphologic response, based on metastases changing from heterogeneous masses with ill-defined margins into homogeneous hypoattenuating lesions with sharp borders. Association of morphologic response and pts characteristics, RR, and PFS were evaluated. PFS was analyzed with Kaplan-Meier method, log-rank test, and Cox proportional hazards model. Results: Of 108 pts (the full analysis set), 73 pts with CLM were evaluable for morphologic criteria. Eighteen pts (24.7%) had optimal morphologic response (OR), 31 (42.5%) had incomplete (IR), and 24 (32.9%) had no response (NR). The pts characteristics between those with OR, IR and NR were generally balanced. The median TTF was 7.2 months in NR versus 7.2 months in IR versus 6.8 months in OR (HR (OR/NR) = 0.91, HR (OR/IR) = 0.90; p = 0.93). RR was 77.8% in OR versus 64.5% in IR and 58.3% in NR (p = 0.528). The median PFS was 8.3 months in NR versus 8.5 months in IR versus 9.1 months in OR (HR (OR/NR) = 0.72, HR (OR/IR) = 1.04; p = 0.420). Conclusions: In this analysis, morphologic response might not be a prognostic marker in first-line BV-based chemotherapy in pts with CLM.

5535 Background: In TITAN, addition of APA to ADT improved radiographic progression-free survival (rPFS) and overall survival (OS) versus PBO plus ADT in patients (pts) with mCSPC. In this post hoc analysis, we performed transcriptome-wide profiling of tumor samples and assessed association of molecular subtypes with rPFS. Methods: The DECIPHER platform (Decipher Biosciences, Inc.) was used to assess gene expression in archival primary prostate tumors from TITAN. Samples were classified into high versus low to average risk of metastases (DECIPHER genomic classifier [GC] > 0.6 and ≤ 0.6, respectively), basal and luminal A/B (PAM50 classifier), and androgen receptor activity (AR-A) signature high and low. Associations between subtypes with rPFS were assessed with Cox proportional hazards model. Results: The biomarker population included 222 pts (APA, 110; PBO, 112). Benefit in rPFS from APA in the biomarker population (HR [95% CI]; p value; 0.49 [0.31-0.78]; 0.002) resembled that in the overall study population (0.49 [0.40-0.61]; < 0.0001). The majority of TITAN pts had GC high scores (n = 166, 75%). GC high risk subtype in the PBO group had poorer prognosis for rPFS than GC low to average risk subtype (median rPFS 18.2 mos for GC high vs not reached [NR] for GC low to average, 0.28 [0.11-0.69]; 0.006), but there was no difference in prognosis between high and low to average GC risk subtypes in the APA group (GC high NR vs GC low to average NR; 0.81 [0.35-1.89]; 0.625). Pts were further stratified based on basal/luminal and AR-A signatures. Basal (n = 112, 50%) and AR-A low (n = 96, 43%) subtypes, known to be nonresponsive to ADT, both showed significant benefit from APA vs PBO (0.30 [0.16-0.57]; < 0.001 and 0.25 [0.12-0.52]; < 0.001, respectively). The majority of AR-A low subtype (74%, 71/96) overlapped with basal subtype. Further conclusions for risk of rPFS in GC low, luminal, and AR-A high subtypes and OS across all subtypes will be assessed as more events occur. Conclusions: In TITAN, addition of APA to ADT improved rPFS for all subtypes of pts with mCSPC. APA overcame the poor prognosis of GC high risk subtype and prolonged rPFS in ADT-resistant AR-A low and basal molecular subtypes, suggesting APA is beneficial especially for the highest risk molecular subtypes.

6594 Background: In a recent international, randomized phase III trial, sunitinib malate, an oral multitargeted receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitor of VEGFRs, PDGFRs, KIT, RET and FLT3 with both antitumor and antiangiogenic effects, was associated with statistically superior clinical efficacy and superior health-related QOL vs. IFN-a as first-line therapy in patients with mRCC (Motzer et al, Proc ASCO 2006;24:2s [Abstract LBA3]). Here we report a substudy of baseline QOL variables predicting PFS. Methods: 750 mRCC patients were randomized 1:1 to receive either sunitinib 50 mg orally once daily in repeated 6-week cycles (4 weeks on treatment followed by 2 weeks off) or IFN-a (9 MU via subcutaneous injection 3 times weekly). QOL was measured by the Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy-General (FACT-G), the FACT-Kidney Symptom Index's Disease-Related Symptoms subscale (FKSI-DRS), and the patient self-rated overall health state (EQ-VAS) from the EuroQol Group's EQ-5D self-report questionnaire. For all QOL endpoints, higher scores indicated better outcomes (better QOL or fewer symptoms). Cox proportional-hazards model was used to test which baseline QOL variables predict PFS while controlling for other baseline demographic and clinical factors as well as treatment. Because the three QOL scores are correlated (r=0.61–0.69), three separate univariate models were fitted. Results and Conclusions: All three baseline QOL variables were predictive of PFS: better baseline FACT-G, FKSI-DRS and EQ-VAS scores were associated with longer PFS. When QOL and other baseline variables were controlled in the models, the superior treatment effect of sunitinib on PFS remained robust and large (See the table below). [Table: see text]

9020 Background: Tumor-derived cfDNA in the blood is a potential alternative source to derive tumor mutation (mut) status and could be a useful biomarker of therapeutic response. Data from METRIC (NCT01245062), an open-label randomized Phase III study evaluating the efficacy and safety of T vs C, were used to assess: correlation between baseline tumor and cfDNA BRAF muts; correlation between baseline cfDNA levels and tumor burden (i.e., the sum of target lesion diameters); and efficacy based on baseline cfDNA BRAF mut status. Methods: BRAF mut status was established for 322 pts using an allele-specific PCR assay in tumor samples. Baseline plasma samples were available for 305/322 pts. cfDNA BRAF mut status was evaluated by Inostics GmBH using BEAMing technology. Spearman correlation coefficients were used to determine the association between cfDNA fraction (mut DNA molecules > 0.01%) and baseline tumor burden. A Cox proportional hazards model was used to assess the association between cfDNA mut status and progression-free survival (PFS). Results: The overall agreement between tumor and cfDNA BRAF V600E and V600K mut status was 77%, and 96% respectively. V600E or V600K cfDNA mut fraction did not correlate with baseline tumor burden (R=0.38 and 0.23, respectively). Benefit of T vs C was observed regardless of cfDNA BRAF mut status (HR= 0.42, 0.41, 0.47 for V600E, V600K, and not detectable (cfDNA ND) subgroups). Interestingly, cfDNA ND pts had longer PFS vs cfDNA V600E/K pts, independent of treatment (HR=0.37 for cfDNA ND vs V600E/K, p=<0.0001). For T cfDNA ND median PFS was not reached (n=52), however the first quartile was 4.5 months; for V600E (n=127) and V600K (n=21) median PFS was 3.5 and 4.4 months, respectively. For C median PFS was 3.5, 1.4, and 1.5 months for cfDNA ND (n=28), V600E (n=69), and V600K (n=7), respectively. Similarly, higher response rates were seen in cfDNA ND pts vs cfDNA V600E/K pts across both treatment arms. Conclusions: Free circulating DNA can be used to detect BRAF V600 muts. cfDNA mut fraction was not linked to tumor burden. The absence of circulating BRAF mut DNA in BRAF V600 pts may be a marker of a better outcome. Clinical trial information: NCT01245062.

781 Background: The GERCOR index (GI) based on performance status and serum LDH was reported to be useful to predict survival for patients with previously untreated mCRC. However, in the salvage setting, the validity of the GI has not been reported in patients treated with cetuximab (Cmab)-based chemotherapy. Methods: 269 patients with mCRC treated with Cmab contained chemotherapy were retrospectively registered from 27 centers in Japan. This analysis was included in the KRAS Exon2 wild type patients who were refractory to or intolerant of 5-FU / irinotecan/ oxaliplatin and were never administered anti-EGFR-antibody. Univariate and multivariate analysis for overall survival (OS) were performed using patient characteristics. Survival analyses were performed with the Kaplan-Meier method, log-rank test and the Cox proportional hazards model. The analysis was also designed to determine whether the GERCOR index could be extended to progression-free survival (PFS). Results: All data were available for prognostic categorization in 132 patients. Median OS and PFS were 9.8 and 4.3 months. The distribution and median OS / PFS for GI were as follows: low risk (L)(n = 28; 17.9/3.8 months), intermediate risk (I)(n = 52; 12.2/5.0 months), and high risk (H)(n = 52; 7.5/4.1 months). For OS, there was significant difference between L and H (p < 0.001) and between I and H (p < 0.001), but not between L and I (p = 0.076). For PFS, there was significant difference between I and H (p = 0.017), but not between L and I (p = 0.407), and between L and H (p = 0.222). In the Cox multivariate analysis, GI showed an independent prognostic impact (L vs. I ; HR 2.195, p=0.003 / L vs. H ; HR 4.028, p<0.001), but not predictive impact (L vs. I ; HR 0.987, p=0.958 / L vs. H ; HR 1.314, p=0.268). Conclusions: In this analysis, GI might be a prognostic factor in salvage treatment with Cmab-based chemotherapy.

1001 Background: The Phase III MONALEESA-3 trial (NCT02422615) previously demonstrated a statistically significant improvement in OS with RIB, a cyclin-dependent kinase 4/6 inhibitor (CDK4/6i), plus FUL compared with placebo (PBO) plus FUL as first-line (1L) or second-line (2L) treatment in postmenopausal pts with HR+/HER2− ABC (median, not reached vs 40.0 mo; hazard ratio [HR], 0.72; 95% CI, 0.57-0.92, P =.00455). This analysis was final per the protocol; following the unblinding of the study, pts still on study treatment in the PBO arm were allowed to cross over to the RIB arm. We report an exploratory analysis of OS after an additional median 16.9 mo of follow-up, allowing for further characterization of long-term survival benefits of RIB. Methods: Postmenopausal pts with HR+/HER2− ABC were randomized 2:1 to receive RIB + FUL or PBO + FUL in 1L and 2L settings. Updated OS was evaluated by Cox proportional hazards model and summarized using Kaplan-Meier methods. Additional postprogression endpoints such as progression-free survival 2 (PFS2), time to chemotherapy (CT), and CT-free survival were also evaluated and summarized. Results: At the data cutoff (Oct 30, 2020), the median follow-up was 56.3 mo (min, 52.7 mo) and 68 (14.0%) and 21 (8.7%) patients were still on treatment in the RIB vs PBO arms, respectively. With this extended follow-up, RIB + FUL continued to demonstrate an OS benefit vs PBO + FUL (median, 53.7 vs 41.5 mo; HR, 0.73; 95% CI, 0.59-0.90). RIB + FUL had prolonged OS vs PBO + FUL in the 1L (median, not reached vs 51.8 mo; HR, 0.64; 95% CI, 0.46-0.88) and 2L subgroups (median, 39.7 vs 33.7 mo; HR, 0.78; 95% CI, 0.59-1.04). Subgroup analyses also showed a consistent OS benefit compared with the intent-to-treat (ITT) population for most subgroups. PFS2, time to CT, and CT-free survival for the ITT population favored RIB + FUL (Table). Among pts who discontinued study treatment, 81.9% and 86.4% received a next-line subsequent antineoplastic therapy, while 14.0% and 30.0% received a CDK4/6i as any subsequent line in the RIB vs PBO arms, respectively. No new safety signals were observed. Conclusions: The previously demonstrated robust and clinically meaningful OS benefit with RIB + FUL compared with PBO + FUL was maintained after almost 5 years of follow-up in postmenopausal pts with HR+/HER2− ABC. The OS benefit of RIB was observed in the 1L and 2L subgroups, which further supports the use of RIB in these populations. The results also demonstrated a significant delay in the use of subsequent CT with RIB vs PBO. Clinical trial information: NCT02422615 .[Table: see text]

The Impact

110 Background: Anecdotal and early evidence suggest ICIs are being used in patients with advanced malignancies and history of AD, despite such patients being typically excluded from traditional clinical trials. We compared the outcomes of patients with or without AD, all of whom had ICI treatment for aNSCLC. Methods: We conducted a retrospective, observational cohort study using de-identified, curated data in ASCO’s CancerLinQ. Patients with Stage III or IV NSCLC who received ≥1 dose of an ICI and had ≥2 visits from Jan 2011 to Nov 2018 were included. AD status prior to ICI treatment was identified using ICD-9/ICD-10 codes or AD medications (including steroids). Symphony claims data were linked via tokenization to build cohorts. Time to treatment discontinuation (TTD), time to next treatment (TTNT), real-world progression-free survival (rwPFS) and overall survival (OS) were compared across the two cohorts using the log-rank test. Cox Proportional Hazards Model was used to adjust for covariates. Adverse events (AEs) were compared using Chi-Square and Fisher’s Exact Test. Active AD was defined as evidence of autoimmune disease in the year prior to starting ICIs. Results: Among 2425 patients with aNSCLC treated with ICIs, AD was present in 22% (N=538). Median OS in all patients was 12.4 months (95% CI 11.3-13.5). TTD, TTNT, rwPFS and OS did not differ between the two cohorts (Table). There was no association between AD status and outcomes. There was no increased incidence of AEs in the AD group; however a sub-analysis among patients with active AD showed higher rates of select AEs including endocrine, GI and blood disorders. Conclusions: This analysis demonstrates that patients with evidence of AD prior to receiving ICI have similar outcomes compared to patients with no evidence of AD. Further research is needed to better understand the impact of active AD on the risk of AEs and patient outcomes. [Table: see text]

Background: The proto-oncogene c-MYC, located on chromosome 8q, can be upregulated through gain of 8q, causing alteration in biology of renal cell carcinoma (RCC). The aim of this study was to evaluate the prevalence of c-MYC through chromosome 8q gain and to correlate findings with cancer-specific mortality (CSM), and overall survival (OS). Methods: Cytogenetic analysis by conventional or Chromosomal Genomic Microarray Analysis (CMA) was performed on 414 renal tumors. Nonclear and nonpapillary RCC were excluded. Impact of gain in chromosome 8q status on CSM, OS, and its correlation with clinicopathological variables were evaluated. CSM and OS were assessed using log-rank test and the Cox proportional hazards model. Results: A total of 297 RCC tumors with cytogenetic analysis were included. Gain of 8q was detected in 18 (6.1%) tumors (9 clear cell and 9 papillary RCC), using conventional method ( n = 11) or CMA ( n = 7). Gain of 8q was associated with higher T stage ( p < 0.001), grade ( p < 0.001), nodal involvement ( p = 0.005), and distant metastasis ( p < 0.001). No association between gain of 8q and age ( p = 0.23), sex ( p = 0.46), and Charlson comorbidity index (CCI, p = 0.59) were seen. Gain of 8q was associated with an 8.38-fold [95% confidence interval (CI), 3.83–18.34, p < 0.001] and 3.31-fold (95% CI, 1.56–7.04, p = 0.001) increase in CSM and decrease in OS, respectively, at a median follow up of 56 months. Conclusion: Chromosome 8q harbors the proto-oncogene c-MYC, which can be upregulated by gain of 8q. Our findings suggest that gain of 8q, can predict aggressive tumor phenotype and inferior survival in RCC.
