e16733 Background: Real-world data allows healthcare decision-makers to assess and manage therapeutic and economic options for patients, including those who would and would not have met eligibility criteria for randomized control trials (RCT) and are instead managed under usual care. This retrospective multi-academic center chart review study describes real-world characteristics and outcomes of US patients receiving liposomal irinotecan for the management of metastatic pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (mPDAC). Methods: Patients with mPDAC treated with liposomal irinotecan were eligible. Initiation of liposomal irinotecan defined index date; covariates assessed included clinical characteristics and treatment patterns; real-world overall survival (rwOS) was assessed via Kaplan-Meier methodology. The target enrollment is 300 patients. The study centers included were Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center, Cedars-Sinai Medical Center, Emory Winship Cancer Institute, Houston Methodist Cancer Center, Henry Ford Cancer Institute, and University of Pittsburgh Medical Center. Results: Data on 26 patients were available for initial analyses. Mean age was 68 years; 58% were female and 65% Caucasian. 54% of patients had stage IV disease at first diagnosis, and 17%, 65%, and 17% had index ECOG score of 0, 1, and 2, respectively. Common genetic mutations include KRAS (40%) and TP53 (40%). Prior to liposomal irinotecan, treatments received for metastatic disease include gemcitabine+nab-paclitaxel (77%) and fluorouracil (5-FU)/leucovorin (LV)+irinotecan+oxaliplatin (19%). Patients had received 0 (12%), 1 (23%), and ≥2 (65%) lines of therapy in the metastatic setting prior to liposomal irinotecan. Mean duration of liposomal irinotecan use was 3.0 months; liposomal irinotecan was mostly received with 5-FU (23%) or 5-FU/LV (69%). Median rwOS was 4.9 months (95% CI: 3.0, 6.3). Conclusions: Real-world data of the first 26 patients in this study show patients treated with liposomal irinotecan are older, sicker, and have had more lines of therapy than previously reported in RCT data.

BackgroundThe NAPOLI-1 trial demonstrated that liposomal irinotecan in combination with fluorouracil (5-FU) and leucovorin (LV) prolonged survival with a manageable safety profile in patients with metastatic pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (mPDAC) previously treated with gemcitabine-based therapy. Real-world data on clinical outcomes associated with liposomal irinotecan in NAPOLI-1-based regimens is needed to further substantiate this.MethodsThis real-world, retrospective chart review study included patients with mPDAC who received NAPOLI-1-based regimens from six academic centers in the United States. Liposomal irinotecan initiation defined the index date. Overall survival (OS) and progression-free survival (PFS) were assessed with Kaplan-Meier methodology.ResultsThere were 374 patients evaluated; median age was 68 years, and 51% were female. Among 326 patients with baseline ECOG information, approximately 74% had ECOG score <2. Liposomal irinotecan was administered as a doublet with 5-FU in a NAPOLI-1-based regimen in the first line (1L; 16%), 2L (42%), and 3L+ (42%) of the metastatic setting. For patients treated in 1L, 2L, and 3L+, median [95% confidence interval (CI)] OS was 8.0 [5.1, 11.2], 7.3 [5.3, 8.8], and 4.6 [4.0, 5.7] months, and median [95% CI] PFS was 4.2 [2.2, 6.6], 3.0 [2.6, 3.7], and 2.0 [1.7, 2.2] months, respectively.ConclusionsPatients in a real-world setting treated with NAPOLI-1-based liposomal irinotecan doublet regimens at academic centers were older with poorer performance status compared to trial patients yet had similar outcomes and efficacy. Furthermore, liposomal irinotecan was frequently used in the 3L+ setting where no treatment has been approved and provided clinical benefit.

BackgroundICI revolutionized modern Oncology landscape and being utilized in metastatic to adjuvant and neo-adjuvant settings. As Oncologists, we are treating cancer patients with ICI every day, yet there is still a lot that is unknown about these drugs. We don’t have clear understanding of the efficacy and toxicity when sequencing one ICI for another. We conducted a retrospective review of real world data at Lahey Hospital and Medical Center to understand further and to pave path for prospective studies to understand this issue further to improve patient care.MethodsWe retrospectively reviewed Oncology patient charts who received ICI between January1, 2014 to December 18, 2018. Total 483 patients received ICI during this time frame and 22 of these patients received a second ICI either as monotherapy or in combination with other ICI or chemotherapy.ResultsA total of 22 patients received subsequent ICI after the initial ICI as showed in table 1. 15 of the 22 (68%) patients were transitioned from one ICI to another monotherapy. 11 of these patients were transitioned secondary to disease progression (73%), three had immune related adverse events and one was switched per standard of care. One patient had ICI re-challenge. Three patients had a transition from ICI monotherapy to combination ICI therapy. One patient went onto chemo-immunotherapy and 2 patients transitioned from combination ICI to chemo-immunotherapy.Abstract 284 Table 1Real world data of sequencing immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICI) after initial ICIConclusionsICI therapy is evolving and patients are being treated with multiple lines of ICI. In current practices, ICI is frequently being transitioned from cytotoxic T-lymphocyte antigen 4 (CTLA-4) and programmed cell death 1 (PD-1) or its ligand, programmed cell death ligand 1 (PD-L1) classes or combined with chemotherapy or targeted therapy. It would be prudent to explore the effects of sequencing these medications either as a monotherapy or in combination with other therapies to better serve our patients and to prevent financial toxicity.

Abstract Background Even though clinical trials are indispensable for medical research, they are frequently impaired by delayed or incomplete patient recruitment, resulting in cost overruns or aborted studies. Study protocols based on real-world data with precisely expressed eligibility criteria and realistic cohort estimations are crucial for successful study execution. The increasing availability of routine clinical data in electronic health records (EHRs) provides the opportunity to also support patient recruitment during the prescreening phase. While solutions for electronic recruitment support have been published, to our knowledge, no method for the prioritization of eligibility criteria in this context has been explored. Methods In the context of the Electronic Health Records for Clinical Research (EHR4CR) project, we examined the eligibility criteria of the KATHERINE trial. Criteria were extracted from the study protocol, deduplicated, and decomposed. A paper chart review and data warehouse query were executed to retrieve clinical data for the resulting set of simplified criteria separately from both sources. Criteria were scored according to disease specificity, data availability, and discriminatory power based on their content and the clinical dataset. Results The study protocol contained 35 eligibility criteria, which after simplification yielded 70 atomic criteria. For a cohort of 106 patients with breast cancer and neoadjuvant treatment, 47.9% of data elements were captured through paper chart review, with the data warehouse query yielding 26.9% of data elements. Score application resulted in a prioritized subset of 17 criteria, which yielded a sensitivity of 1.00 and specificity 0.57 on EHR data (paper charts, 1.00 and 0.80) compared with actual recruitment in the trial. Conclusion It is possible to prioritize clinical trial eligibility criteria based on real-world data to optimize prescreening of patients on a selected subset of relevant and available criteria and reduce implementation efforts for recruitment support. The performance could be further improved by increasing EHR data coverage.

380 Background: Clinical trials suggest that patients with metastatic pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (mPDA) are at a high risk of thromboembolic events (TEs) as a result of both disease and treatment. Real-world data on TE rates are limited for patients with mPDA. Methods: Using a retrospective cohort design, patients with mPDA aged ≥ 65 years and treated with chemotherapy during 2007-2012 were identified using the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER)-Medicare database. Patients enrolled in Medicare parts A, B, and D were followed from the start of first-line chemotherapy (index date) to the earliest of disenrollment from Medicare, death, or 12/31/2012. The baseline (BL) period was defined as 12 months prior to the index date. The incidence of TEs was calculated as the number of events per 100 person-years (PY) of follow-up (F/U) among patients without a BL TE. Anticoagulant use during F/U was categorized as preventive (before first TE, if any) and treatment (on or after first TE date) among patients with no BL TE. Results: Of 1,308 patients meeting the selection criteria, the mean age was 74 years, and 56% were female. The prevalence of TEs during the study period (BL or F/U) was 58% (n = 755). Excluding the 427 patients (33%) with TEs during BL, 328/881 (37%) of patients had a first TE during F/U, for an incidence rate of 85/100PY, including 29/100PY arterial and 59/100PY venous events. In the full study cohort, only 467/1,308 (36%) had a claim for any anticoagulant during the study period, although inpatient anticoagulant use is likely under-reported. Among patients receiving anticoagulants, 287/467 (61%) received low molecular weight heparin (LMWH). Preventive anticoagulant use was observed in 74/881 (8%) of patients without a BL TE; anticoagulation treatment was observed for 159/328 (48%) patients with a first TE during F/U. Conclusions: Real-world mPDA patients face a significant risk of TEs both before and after starting chemotherapy. Although inpatient use of anticoagulants including LMWH is incomplete in this database, it is clear that use of anticoagulants for treatment, and for prevention, of TEs is sub-optimal.
