e16712 Background: Gemcitabine combined with cisplatin (GP) is currently used as a standard first-line chemotherapy regimen for aBTCs, However, the median overall survival (mOS) is only about 11.7 months, and there is no standard treatment option for patients who failed GP therapy. In this study, we aimed to investigate the efficacy and safety of anlotinib with cediranib as a second-line treatment for patients with aBTCs. Methods: A monocenter single-arm phase II study was conducted at the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University. Patients with measurable aBTCs and progressed on GP were enrolled in this study. Patients received cediranib 200mg, on day1 + anlotinib 12mg on day1-14, Q3W until disease progression, intolerance of toxicity, investigator/patient decision to withdraw or other reasons specified in the protocol. Response (RECIST1.1) was assessed every 8 weeks. Plasma, stool and tumor tissues were collected for exploratory analyses. The primary endpoint was overall survival (OS). Secondary endpoints included progression-free survival (PFS), objective response rate (ORR), disease control rate (DCR) and drug safety. Results: We planned to include 20 patients. So far 9 patients were enrolled in this study, 66.7% (6/9) were men, 33.3% were women. The median age was 56y (43y-61y). The primary sites of the tumor were intrahepatic biliary (66.7%, 6/9) and gallbladder (33.3%, 3/9). At data cutoff (Dec 14, 2019), the median duration of follow-up was 2.5mos (range, 1.2 to 4) and all of the patients were still under treatment. 8 patients have undergone at least one efficacy evaluation, of which 2 (25%) PR, 5 SD (62.5%), DCR was 87.5% ((7/8). An SD patient had a long-term intermittent fever, which considered to be tumor fever, the body temperature returned to normal after 1 cycle of treatment. 1 patient was considered to be undefined because, at the first evaluation, the liver lesions were reduced however the lymph nodes in the retroperitoneum were enlarged. The median PFS and OS not yet reached. Grade 3-4 treatment-related adverse events (TRAEs) occurred in 11.1% (1/9) of patients. TRAEs led to discontinuation in 1 patient (grade 3 hypertension). TRAEs led to dose reduction of anlotinib in 2 patients. No TRAEs were fatal. Conclusions: The primary result showed that the combination of anlotinib and cediranib was well tolerated and demonstrates encouraging efficacy than historical control in second-line treatment for aBTC. Updated data, including safety, efficacy, and biomarkers will be presented. Clinical trial information: ChiCTR1900022003 .

Abstract   Esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) as a common malignancy is prevalent in East Asia and in eastern and southern Africa. Although pembrolizumab, nivolumab and camrelizumab are respectively recommended as second-line treatment for advanced ESCC due to improved overall survival (OS), objective response rate (ORR) was modest. New effective treatments are needed. Hence, the study of camrelizumab plus apatinib (VEGFR2 inhibitor) as second-line treatment for advanced ESCC was performed. Methods This ongoing phase II trial (NCT03736863) in six sites in China enrolled pts aged 18-75 with unresectable locally advanced, locally recurrent, or metastatic ESCC that progressed or were intolerant after first-line chemotherapy, and an ECOG performance status of 0-1. Pts received 200 mg camrelizumab intravenously every 2 weeks and apatinib 250 mg orally once per day in 4-week cycles until disease progression, unacceptable adverse events (AEs) or withdrawal of consent. The primary endpoint was investigator-assessed ORR. Secondary endpoints included disease control rate (DCR), progression-free survival (PFS) and OS. Results At data cutoff (Feb 28, 2021), 52 pts were enrolled, including 42 males and 50 with distant metastases, with the median age of 62 years. In the evaluable population of 39 pts, ORR without confirmation was 43.59% and DCR was 94.87%. The median duration of response was 6.9 months (95% CI 4.57–9.23). The median PFS was 6.8 month (95% CI 2.66–10.94). The 12-month overall survival was 52.2%. A total of 80.8% of pts had treatment-related AEs (TRAEs) with 46.2% of grade ≥ 3 TRAEs. The safety profile of camrelizumab and apatinib was consistent with other anti–PD-1 antibodies and angiogenesis inhibitors. Conclusion This is the first study that evaluates the combination anti–PD-1 antibody and anti-angiogenesis inhibitor as a second-line therapy for advanced ESCC. Camrelizumab plus apatinib showed encouraging clinical efficacy and acceptable safety. Further phase III randomized trials are warranted.

PURPOSE: The aim of the present phase II study was to evaluate the efficacy of the paclitaxel, ifosfamide, and cisplatin (PIC) combination in relapsed small-cell lung cancer (SCLC). PATIENTS AND METHODS: Eligible patients were those with SCLC who had progressed or relapsed after therapy with carboplatin and etoposide (with or without chest radiotherapy). The PIC regimen consisted of paclitaxel 175 mg/m2 on day 1, ifosfamide 5 g/m2 divided over days 1 and 2, and cisplatin 100 mg/m2 divided over days 1 and 2; PIC was given every 21 days with granulocyte colony-stimulating factor support. RESULTS: Thirty-three patients (30 men and three women) were entered onto the study (median age, 62 years [range, 55 to 70 years]; median performance status, 1 [range, 0 to 2]). Metastatic sites at study entry included the lymph nodes (n = 13 patients), bone (n = 9), liver (n = 5), brain (n = 6), lung nodules (n = 8), adrenal glands (n = 9), and other (n = 2) Responses included eight complete remissions and 16 partial remissions (overall response rate, 73% [24 of 33 patients]). Five patients had stable disease and two had progressive disease. Median time to progression and overall survival were 21 and 28 weeks, respectively. The 1-year survival rate was 12%, with two patients alive without evidence of disease at 76 and 104 weeks since PIC initiation. Grade 3 and 4 toxicities included neutropenia in 30 patients (24 [73%] developed grade 4 neutropenia [ < 5 days]) and febrile neutropenia in six patients (18%); grade 3 or 4 thrombocytopenia was seen in nine patients (27%) . No grade 3 neuropathy was observed; grade 1 or 2 CNS toxicity was seen in five patients, there was no renal toxicity, grade 2 myalgias were seen in nine patients, grade 2 diarrhea was seen in one patient, and grade 3 nausea or vomiting was seen in seven patients. There were no treatment-related deaths. CONCLUSION: In the present phase II study, the PIC combination seemed highly active and tolerable in patients with relapsed SCLC when it was administered as second-line treatment. Given the present experience, an evaluation of the PIC regimen as front-line treatment of SCLC is planned.

e14604 Background: Nimotuzumab is a genetically engineered humanized antibody (mAb) that recognizes an epitope located in the extracellular domain of human EGFR. Evidences have shown that nimotuzumab is effective and safe in SCCHN. The combination of paclitaxel/cisplatin (TP) is a standard regimen for advanced or metastatic ESCC. This open uncontrolled phase II study was designed to determine the efficacy and safety of nimotuzumab in combination with TP as the first-line treatment in advanced ESCC. Methods: All patients have histology/cytology confirmed advanced or metastatic ESCC with ECOG PS 0-2. The treatment plan is as the following: paclitaxel administered intravenously (IV) 175 mg/m2 on d1 and cisplatin IV 30-35mg/ m2/d on d1-2, every 21 days for 6 cycles, and nimotuzumab IV 200mg weekly. For patients with stable disease (SD) and better, nimotuzumab will be given continuously after 6 cycles of TP. The primary endpoint is objective response rate (RR) with 56 patients enrollment (target RR >60%); secondary endpoints were progression-free survival (PFS), overall survival (OS) and safety/ tolerability. The coordinations between EGFR and ERCC1 with response of treatment will be analyzed. Results: Up to date, 25 patients (male/female, 20/5; median age 58) have been enrolled. All patients were evaluated for toxicity and 22 are evaluable for response. 14 (63.6%) had a confirmed partial response (PR) and 7 (31.8%) had SD as their best responses with disease control rate of 95.4%. Only one patient had progressive disease (PD). Grade 3 or 4 neutropenia, neutropenic fever and anemia occurred in 52.2%, 4% and 13% respectively. Nonhematological toxicities were generally mild with grade 1 or 2 alopecie, hypodynamia, anorexia, nausea, arthralgia, and itch of skin occurring in 80%, 60.9%, 43.5%, 34.8%, 30.4%, and 21.7%. One patient had a grade 3 haematuria. Conclusions: The interim analysis showed that the combination of nimotuzumab with TP is tolerated reasonably well in patients with advanced or metastatic ESCC and encouraging efficacy. The study is ongoing with coordination of biomarkers and response as well.

e14644 Background: The clinical application of combination therapy of irinotecan and capecitabine is at a standstill due to the consideration on severe diarrhea. The aim of the current phase II study was to explore the optimal administration mode of these two drugs, and evaluate the safety and efficacy of weekly-scheduled XELIRI regimen (wXELIRI) in mCRC pts. Methods: Pts with unresectable, histologically confirmed mCRC were enrolled to receive wXELIRI: irinotecan 90mg/m(2) on Day 1 and capecitabine 1200 mg/m(2) bid on Days 1-5 weekly. Both the first-line pts and second-line treatment pts who failed with FOLFOX or XELOX were eligible. The primary endpoint was rate of Grade 3/4 diarrhea. Secondary endpoints included progression-free survival (PFS), overall survival (OS) and other safeties. Results: From January 2011 to May 2012, totally 43 pts with measurable mCRC were enrolled, 18 of them were male and 25 were female. The median age was 60 yrs (range 32-70). No Grade 4 diarrhea was observed and the rate of grade 3 diarrhea was 4.7%. The most common Grade 3/4 toxicities included leucocyte(11.6%), neutrophile (18.6%), vomiting (4.7%), fatigue (2.3%), hand-foot-syndrome (2.3%) . With a median follow-up of 19.0 months, 23 PFS events were observed. The mPFS for all the 43 pts was 6.1 mons and the mOS was 15.5 mons. For the 31 first-line treatment pts, the mPFS was 7.5 mons and the mOS has not reached. In the second-line treatment group (12 pts), the mPFS was 5.4 mons and mOS was 13.8 mons. Conclusions: The weekly-scheduled irinotecan and capecitabine combination has a low rate of severe diarrhea and acceptable toxicity profile. It could be an alternative regimen for mCRC pts, especially in the second-line setting. Clinical trial information: NCT01322152.

Purpose No previous prospective trials have been reported with sorafenib in patients with sunitinib-refractory metastatic renal cell cancer (MRCC). We conducted a multicenter study to determine the activity and tolerability of sorafenib as second-line therapy after sunitinib progression in MRCC. Patients and Methods Between January 2006 and September 2008, 52 patients were enrolled onto this single-arm phase II study. All patients received sorafenib 400 mg orally twice a day until disease progression or intolerable toxicity. The primary end point was objective response rate (complete or partial response) evaluated every 8 weeks by use of the Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors; secondary end points were toxicity, time to progression (TTP), and overall survival (OS). Results All patients were included in response and safety analyses. Partial responses were observed in 9.6% of patients (five of 52 patients; 95% CI, 5% to 17%) after two cycles. Grade 1 to 2 fatigue, diarrhea, nausea/vomiting, rash, and neutropenia were the most common side effects, noted in 16 (30.8%), 19 (36.5%), 20 (38.5%), 19 (36.5%), and 20 patients (38.5%), respectively. The most common grade 3 toxicity was diarrhea, noted in six patients (11.5%). Median TTP was 16 weeks (range, 8 to 40 weeks), and median OS was 32 weeks (range, 16 to 64 weeks). Conclusion Although well tolerated, sorafenib shows limited efficacy in sunitinib-refractory MRCC. Further randomized trials comparing sorafenib with other drugs that target different biologic pathways are needed to define the best second-line treatment option in these patients.

e16199 Background: Patients with advanced neuroendocrine carcinoma (NEC) have a poor prognosis and limited treatment option after first-line treatment. Surufatinib, a multi-kinase inhibitor of VEGFR 1-3, FGFR 1 and CSF-1R, has been approved in patients with advanced or metastatic extra-pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors in China. Toripalimab is a monoclonal humanized IgG4 PD-1 antibody. Surufatinib modulates tumor immune microenvironment and has shown promising antitumor activity in combination with toripalimab in solid tumors, including neuroendocrine tumor and neuroendocrine carcinoma. Herein, we reported the efficacy and safety of surufatinib in combination with toripalimab in a cohort of advanced NEC patients. Methods: The multicenter, open-label, single-arm phase II clinical trial enrolled advanced NEC patients refractory to first-line chemotherapy, and received surufatinib 250 mg once a day orally plus toripalimab 240 mg intravenously on day 1 of a 21-day cycle. The primary end point is objective response rate (ORR) per RECIST 1.1. Results: Twenty-one patients enrolled and received combination therapy. At data cut-off (December 31, 2020), the average treatment cycles were 5.1±3.69 for surufatinib and 5.0±3.68 for toripalimab. Among 20 tumor evaluable patients, 4 patients achieved confirmed PR and 10 patients achieved stable disease. The ORR and disease control rate (DCR) are 20 % (95%CI: 5.7%-43.7%) and 70% (95%CI: 45.7%-88.1%) respectively. The median PFS is 3.94 months (95%CI: 1.31- unknown). OS is not mature till data cut-off. Adverse events (AEs) reported as related to treatment (TRAE) occurred in 100% of patients, of which Grade≥3 TRAEs occurred in 33.3% of patients. The reported Grade≥3 TRAEs were hypertension in 2 (9.5%) patients, and upper abdominal pain, oral mucositis, neutrophil count decreased, leukocyte count decreased, dermatitis, anemia and backache in 1 (4.8%) patient each. Immune related Grade ≥3 AEs, Gamma-glutamyl transpeptidase increased and dermatitis, occurred in 2 (9.5%) patients, respectively. TRAE caused surufatinib or toripalimab interruption occurred in 6 (28.6%) and 4 (19%) patients respectively. There were neither serious AEs nor AEs inducing treatment discontinuations or deaths. Conclusions: As there is no standard second-line treatment, this combination of surufatinib and toripalimab might offer a new promising choice to treat NEC as second-line treatment due to good efficacy and manageable treatment related toxicities. Clinical trial information: NCT04169672.

e16684 Background: There is no standard second-line therapy for advanced biliary tract carcinoma (BTC). Apatinib, a VEGFR2 tyrosine kynase inhibitor, showed an inhibitary effect on tumor formation in BTC tumorgraft mouse model in previous study, with tolerable toxicity in clinical trials for other types of advanced cancer such as gastric cancer. We conducted an exploratory study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of apatinib in patients with advanced BTC. Methods: This is a single-center, single-arm phase II study (NCT03427242). The key inclusion criteria were:(1) histologically confirmed advanced or metastatic BTC; (2) Prior lack of response or intolerance to at least one chemotherapeutic regimens; (3) At least one measurable lesion as defined by RECIST 1.1; (4) No prior use of anti-angiogenic targeted drugs. Eligible patients received oral apatinib 500mg each day continuously until unacceptable toxicity or tumor progression. The primary endpoint was progression free survival (PFS). The secondary endpoints were overall survival (OS), objective response rate (ORR), disease control rate (DCR) and treatment safety. Results: From Dec 1, 2017 to Jan 31, 2020, a total of 18 patients (12 males and 6 females) had been recruited, and 16 patients who had received the medication of apatinib were included in this analysis. Among these patients, 10 were previously treated with only first-line chemotherapy and 6 were treated with two or more lines of therapy. The median age was 65 (range 45-76) years old. Fourteen patients had received the efficacy evaluation after treatment. Two patients achieved partial response (PR, 14.3%), 6 patients with stable disease (SD, 42.9%),and 6 patients with progressive disease(PD). The ORR and DCR were 14.3% and 57.1%, respectively. At the last follow-up date on Jan 30, 2020, 4 patients are still on apatinib medication. The median PFS was 2.70 months (95% CI, 1.94 - 3.46), and the median OS was 7.03 months (95% CI, 3.16 - 10.9). Grade 3 or 4 adverse events were reported in 7 patients (43.8%). The detailed grade 3 or 4 adverse events were proteinuria in 5 patients, hand-foot syndrome in 2 patients, platelet count decrease in 1 patients, diarrhea in 1 patients and urine bilirubin in 1 patients (Table). Conclusions: For the patients with advanced biliary tract carcinoma, apatinib showed an anti-tumor activity with acceptable safety. Clinical trial information: NCT03427242 . [Table: see text]

Background: Standard intravenous (IV) paclitaxel is associated with hypersensitivity/toxicity. Alternative IV formulations have improved tolerability but still require frequent hospital visits and IV infusion. DHP107 is a novel oral formulation of paclitaxel that is approved in South Korea for the treatment of gastric cancer. Methods: This multicenter, phase II study using a Simon’s two-stage design investigated the efficacy and safety of DHP107 200 mg/m2 administered orally twice daily on days 1, 8, and 15 every 4 weeks for the first-line treatment of recurrent or metastatic HER2-negative breast cancer. Results: Thirty-six patients were enrolled and 31 were assessable for efficacy. Patient median age was 57 years (range = 34–81) and 11 (31%) had triple-negative disease. A median of seven cycles (range = 1–28) of DHP107 was administered. Objective response rate was 55% (17 patients), all partial responses, according to the investigator’s decision and independent central review (ICR), and 44% (4/9 patients) in those with triple-negative disease. Disease control rate (partial response and stable disease) was 74% (23 patients) according to the investigator’s decision and ICR. In the intention-to-treat (ITT) population of all enrolled participants, the objective response rate was 50% (18/36 patients). Median progression-free survival was 8.9 months [95% confidence interval [CI]: 5.2–12.3) and median time to treatment failure was 8.0 months (95% CI: 4.2–10.0). DHP107 had an acceptable toxicity profile. All patients experienced treatment-emergent adverse events; the most common adverse events were decreased neutrophil count (81% all grades and 78% grade ⩾ 3) followed by peripheral sensory neuropathy (61% all grades and 8% grade 3). However, there was no febrile neutropenia or sepsis. Conclusion: DHP107 showed promising efficacy and acceptable tolerability in this phase II study and is currently being investigated in the OPTIMAL phase III study (NCT03315364). Trial registration: This trial was registered with ClinicalTrials.gov identifier: NCT03315364.

749 Background: The recommended dose of combination chemotherapy of irinotecan, bevacizumab and oral S-1 is 100mg/m2, 5mg/kg and 80-120mg/body respectively. To evaluate whether the dose of irinotecan could be raised to 150mg/m2 with modified administration of S-1, we have conducted a phase II study of irinotecan and bevacizumab plus alternate day S-1 in patients with metastatic colorectal cancer (UMIN000008947). Methods: Patients with metastatic colorectal cancer after failure with first-line treatment of oxaliplatine and fluoropyrimidine were enrolled. Irinotecan (150 mg/m2) and bevacizumab (5mg/kg) were given intravenously on day 1. Oral S-1was administered on alternate days at a dose of 40-60mg twice a day. Cycles were repeated every two weeks. Results: A total of 51 patients were evaluated in the first fouur cycles. Grade 3 and 4 neutropenia were 10% (10/51) and 13.7%(7/10), grade 3 and 4 thrombocytopenia were 0%(0/51) and 2.0% (1/51). Grade 2 and 3 mucositis were 13.7% (7/51) and 3.9% (2/51). Grade 2 and 3 nausea were 11.8% (6/51) and 2.0% (1/51). Grade 2 and 3 diarrhea were 17.6% (9/51) and 15.7% (8/51). The relative dose intensities were 84.8% for irinotecan, 87.5% for bevacizumab, and 84.8% for S-1 respectively in the first four cycles. Conclusions: Our data suggest that irinotecan (150 mg/m2) and bevacizumab was administered safely with alternate day S-1 as second-line tratment in patients with metastatic colorectal cancer.

17096 Background: Second-line chemotherapy has become almost routine in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients (pts) with good performance status (PS). The availability of the new pharmacological agents opens up new possibilities for their use in pts who have retained a good PS following relapse or progression after first-line chemotherapy. Paclitaxel (PTX) and Gemcitabine (GEM) are among the most active new agents in NSCLC and are worth considering for second-line chemotherapy. In phase II study, we evaluated the tolerability and activity of the combination of weekly PTX and GEM in second-line treatment of NSCLC. Methods: PTX (100mg/m2) and GEM (1000 mg/m2) were administered on days 1 and 8 at every 3–4 weeks. A total of 40 pts (M/F, 27/13 pts; median age 59.3 years [33–75]; PS 0/1/2, 7/27/6 pts) were enrolled between October 2000 and July 2003. Results: The number of cycles conducted was 1 in 5 pts, 2 in 8 pts, 3 in 10 pts, and 4 in 17 pts (mean: 4). The final efficacy was PR in 13, NC in 26 and PD in 1 for a response rate of 32.5 % (95% CI: 18.0–47.0%). The median survival time was 41.7 weeks (95% CI: 28.5–54.7 weeks). The median time to progressive disease was 19 weeks. Hematologic toxicities observed included Grade 3 or 4 neutropenia in 60%, Grade 3 or 4 anemia in 20%, and Grade 3 or 4 thrombocytepenia in 10%. Non-hematologic toxicities were mild except Grade 3 diarrhea in 3 pts and Grade 3 pneumonitis in 2 pts. There were no toxic deaths. Conclusions: The combination of weekly PTX and GEM is a feasible, well-tolerated, and active scheme for second-line treatment of advanced NSCLC. No significant financial relationships to disclose.
