TPS9635 Background: Sitravatinib is an oral spectrum-selective tyrosine kinase inhibitor that targets the TAM (TYRO3/AXL/MERTK) and split (VEGFR2/KIT) family receptor tyrosine kinases (RTKs), as well as MET. Inhibition of TAM RTKs may promote the depletion of myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSCs) in the tumor microenvironment (TME) and repolarize tumor associated macrophages towards the pro-inflammatory M1 phenotype. Inhibition of the split RTKs may reduce immunosuppressive regulatory T cells in addition to MDSCs within the TME. Given these pleiotropic immune-stimulating effects, sitravatinib may reverse resistance to checkpoint inhibitor therapy (CIT) and augment the antitumor immune response of nivolumab in patients (pts) with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). An ongoing Phase 2 study (MRTX-500) demonstrates clinical activity of this combination in pts with metastatic non-squamous NSCLC after progression on or after CIT. Methods: Global, randomized, open-label, Phase 3 study of sitravatinib in combination with nivolumab vs docetaxel in pts with advanced non-squamous NSCLC who have progressed on or after CIT. Pts must have also received platinum-based chemotherapy either in combination with CIT or prior to CIT. Pts are randomized (1:1) to receive oral sitravatinib 120 mg once daily in continuous 28-day cycles combined with nivolumab IV 240 mg every 2 weeks or 480 mg every 4 weeks vs treatment with docetaxel 75 mg/m2 IV every 3 weeks. Patients are stratified based on number of prior treatment regimens in the advanced setting, ECOG performance status, and presence of brain metastases. Key eligibility criteria include duration of treatment of CIT of at least 4 months, discontinuation of prior treatment with CIT < 90 days prior to the date of randomization, and absence of symptomatic or uncontrolled brain metastases. The primary endpoint is overall survival (OS). Key secondary endpoints include safety and tolerability, ORR, PFS, PROs, and PK. OS will be analyzed using Kaplan-Meier methods and the stratified log-rank test to estimate and compare the median OS between the two treatment arms with 95% CI. An IDMC will review safety at regular intervals and efficacy at a planned interim analysis based on OS. Enrollment is ongoing. Clinical trial information: NCT03906071 .

TPS9134 Background: Patients with mNSCLC who progress on anti–PD-L1/PD-1 therapy administered in combination with or after platinum-based chemotherapy (PBC) are mainly treated with docetaxel or pemetrexed monotherapy. These therapies only have modest clinical activity, leaving a high unmet medical need. Cabozantinib, a tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI), promotes an immune-permissive environment and may enhance the efficacy of PD-L1/PD-1 inhibitors, offering a promising second/third-line therapeutic opportunity for patients with mNSCLC. In a Phase Ib multi-cohort study (COSMIC-021; NCT03170960), cabozantinib plus atezolizumab (anti–PD-L1) showed an acceptable safety profile and promising efficacy (ORR: 27%; mDOR: 5.7 mo [range: 2.6-6.9]; disease control rate [CR + PR + SD]: 83%) in 30 patients with mNSCLC who had progressed after prior anti–PD-L1/PD-1 therapy plus chemotherapy (Neal et al. J Clin Oncol 2020). The Phase III CONTACT-01 study will further evaluate the efficacy and safety of atezolizumab plus cabozantinib versus docetaxel monotherapy in patients with mNSCLC who have progressed during or after prior treatment with anti–PD-L1/PD-1 therapy and PBC. Methods: CONTACT-01 (NCT04471428) is a Phase III, multi-center, randomized, open-label study that will enroll ≈350 patients from 150 to 200 sites internationally. Key eligibility criteria include histologically or cytologically confirmed mNSCLC, disease progression with concurrent or sequential anti–PD-L1/PD-1 treatment and PBC, measurable disease (RECIST 1.1), ECOG PS of 0-1 and the availability of tissue specimens for centralized PD-L1 testing or known PD-L1 status using a health authority–approved PD-L1 assay. Patients with NSCLC previously treated with cabozantinib, docetaxel or anti–PD-L1/PD-1 + VEGFR TKIs are excluded. Patients with known sensitizing EGFR/ALK mutations and active or untreated CNS metastases are also excluded. Patients will be randomized 1:1 to receive either atezolizumab (1200 mg IV every 3 weeks) + cabozantinib (40 mg orally once daily) or docetaxel (75 mg/m2 IV every 3 weeks). The primary endpoint is OS. Secondary endpoints include investigator-assessed PFS, ORR and DOR per RECIST 1.1; TTD in patient-reported physical function and global health status (EORTC QLQ-C30); investigator-assessed PFS rates at 6 months and 1 year; OS rates at 1 and 2 years; safety and PK. Clinical trial information: NCT04471428.

6021 Background: Camrelizumab is a fully humanized, monoclonal antibody against PD-1. We aimed to assess the efficacy and safety of camrelizumab plus apatinib, a tyrosine kinase inhibitor targeting VEGFR2, in patients with advanced cervical cancer. Methods: In this open-label, single-arm, phase 2 study done at four centres in China, eligible patients were aged 18–70 years, had an ECOG performance status of 0 or 1, progressed after at least one line of systemic chemotherapy for metastatic, recurrent or persistent cervical cancer, and had measurable disease. Patients received camrelizumab 200 mg every 2 weeks and apatinib 250 mg once daily. Treatment continued until disease progression, unacceptable toxicity, and withdrawal of consent. The primary endpoint was the objective response rate (ORR) assessed by RECIST version 1.1. An optimal Simon two-stage design was employed to test the null hypothesis of a 17% ORR versus 35% alternative (1-sided alpha 0.10, 80% power), if > 3 responses out of the first 16 patients were observed, then the study would continue to enroll a total of 44 patients. Results: Between Jan 21st, 2019, and Aug 1st, 2019, 45 patients were enrolled and received study treatment (safety population). The median age was 51 (range, 33–67) years. Median previous treatment lines were 2 (range, 1–4). As of Jan 22, 2020, median follow-up was 9.2 months (range, 2.4–12.2). 25 (59.5%; 95%: CI 44.7–74.4) of 42 patients who had at least one post-baseline tumor assessment (efficacy evaluable population) achieved an objective response, including two (4.8%) complete response, and 23 (54.8%) partial response. Median duration of response was not reached. The disease control rate was 88.1% (37/42). Median progression-free survival (PFS) was 7.6 months (95% CI: 5.8–not reached). 31 (68.9%) patients had grade ≥ 3 treatment-related adverse events (TRAEs). Grade ≥ 3 TRAEs occurring in ≥ 5% of patients were hypertension (24.4%), anemia (20.0%), fatigue (15.6%), γ-glutamyltransferase increased (13.3%), neutropenia (6.7%), and thrombocytopenia (6.7%). In post-hoc analyses, objective response was noted in 20 (69%) of 29 patients with PD-L1-positive tumors, and in 5 (50.0%) of 10 patients with PD-L1-negative tumors (Chi-square test, P = 0.281). PFS was longer in patients with PD-L1-positive tumors than patients with PD-L1-negative tumors (median PFS: 9.6 versus 5.3 months; log-rank test, P = 0.017). Conclusions: Camrelizumab plus apatinib showed promising antitumor activity and tolerable toxicities in patients with advanced cervical cancer. Clinical trial information: NCT03816553.

Phase Iii Study

TPS11080 Background: Activating mutations in the kinase domain of PDGFRA account for 10-15% of GIST. The most common PDGFRA mutation reported is D842V, which is known to confer resistance to imatinib and sunitinib. Currently, there is no approved treatment for GIST patients carrying such mutation. Cassier PA et al. showed that patients with D842V mutated GIST had a short median progression free survival (PFS) of 2.8 months with first line imatinib and 2.1 months with second line (2012 Clin Cancer Res). Crenolanib is a highly selective PDGFRA and FLT3 inhibitor with nanomolar activity against PDGFRα D842V mutation. In a previous dose-finding study, crenolanib showed a 31% clinical benefit rate with 2 pts achieving PR and 3 pts maintaining SD (total evaluable: 16 pts) in heavily pretreated GIST patients harboring the PDGFRA D842V mutation. In this study, 35% patients stayed on study for at least 7 months despite 80% patients having progressed after prior imatinib (15 pts), sunitinib (7 pts), dasatinib (5 pts), sorafenib (4 pts), nilotinib (2 pts), and regorafenib (2 pts). Therefore, a phase III trial has been initiated to further confirm the clinical activity of crenolanib in patients with PDGFRA D842Vmutation. Methods: This randomized phase III study will enroll adult subjects with histologically or cytologically confirmed advanced or metastatic GIST with a PDGFRA D842V mutation. Prior treatment with TKI is allowed. Approximately 120 subjects will be randomized in a 2:1 ratio to receive either crenolanib 100 mg or matching placebo orally 3 times daily in combination with best supportive care. Randomization will be stratified by prior tyrosine kinase inhibitor exposure and ECOG performance status. The primary objective is PFS; key secondary objectives include OS. A formal interim analysis is planned after approximately 50 subjects have met the primary outcome. This study is already opened in the US, France, Norway, and Poland, and will soon be opened in Germany, Italy, Spain, UK and Asia.

7509 Background: BMS-936558 is a fully human mAb that blocks the programmed death-1 (PD-1) co-inhibitory receptor expressed by activated T cells. We report here that BMS-936558 mediates antitumor activity in heavily pretreated patients (pts) with advanced NSCLC, a tumor historically not considered to be responsive to immunotherapy. Methods: BMS-936558 was administered IV Q2WK to pts with various solid tumors, including NSCLC, at doses of 0.1 to 10 mg/kg during dose-escalation and/or cohort expansion. Pts with advanced NSCLC previously treated with at least 1 prior chemotherapy regimen were eligible. Pts received up to 12 cycles (4 doses/cycle) of treatment or until PD or CR. Clinical activity was assessed by RECIST 1.0. Results: Of 240 pts treated as of July 1, 2011, 75 NSCLC pts were treated at 1 (n=17), 3 (n= 19), or 10 mg/kg (n=39). ECOG performance status was 0/1/2 in 24/49/2 pts. Tumor histology was squamous (n=17), non-squamous (n=52), or unknown (n=6). The number of prior therapies was 1 (n=9), 2 (n=20), ≥3 (n=45), or unknown (n=1). Ninety-five percent of pts had received platinum-based chemotherapy and 40% had a prior tyrosine kinase inhibitor. Sites of metastatic disease included lymph node (n=50), liver (n=12), lung (n=62), and bone (n=13). Median duration of therapy was 10 wk (max 100 wk). Common related AEs were fatigue (17%), nausea (11%), pyrexia (7%), pruritus (7%), dizziness (7%), and anemia (7%). The incidence of grade 3-4 related AEs was 8%. There was 1 drug-related death due to pulmonary toxicity. Clinical activity was observed at all dose levels (Table) and in multiple histologies. Several pts had prolonged SD. Some had a persistent decrease in overall tumor burden in the presence of new lesions and were not categorized as responders. At the time of data lock, of 10 OR pts, 3 had responses lasting ≥6 mo and 5 were on study with response duration of 1.8-5.5 mo. Conclusions: BMS-936558 is well tolerated and has encouraging clinical activity in pts with previously treated advanced NSCLC. Further development of BMS-936558 in pts with advanced NSCLC is warranted. [Table: see text]

249 Background: Linifanib (ABT-869; Lin) is a potent and selective inhibitor of the vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) receptor tyrosine kinase families. In a phase II trial in patients (pts) with advanced HCC, Lin showed clinical activity (objective response rate [ORR] 10.5% in Child-Pugh A [CPA] pts). This open-label, global phase 3 trial evaluated Lin versus sorafenib (Sor) as first-line therapy in pts with advanced CPA HCC (NCT01009593). Methods: Pts were randomized 1:1 to Lin 17.5 mg QD or Sor 400 mg BID and stratified by region (non-Asia/Japan/rest of Asia), ECOG performance status (0/1), vascular invasion or extrahepatic spread (yes/no) and HBV infection (yes/no). The primary efficacy endpoint was overall survival (OS); both non-inferiority (margin 1.0491) and superiority hypotheses were to be tested. Secondary efficacy endpoints included time to progression (TTP) and ORR, using RECIST v1.1. AE severity was graded using NCI-CTCAE v4.0. Results: 1035 pts (median age 60 y, 68% Asian, 65% ECOG 0, 49% HBV, 70% vascular invasion or extrahepatic spread) were randomized at 149 sites in 26 countries. Hazard ratio (HR) for OS was 1.046 (95% CI: 0.896, 1.221). Median OS (95% CI) was 9.1 months (m) (8.1, 10.2) on Lin and 9.8 m (8.3, 11.0) on Sor. For all pre-specifed subgroup analyses, OS HRs ranged from 0.793-1.119, and the 95% CI contained 1.0. TTP HR was 0.759 (95% CI: 0.643, 0.895; p=0.001) favoring Lin. Median TTP (95% CI) was 5.4 m (4.2, 5.6) on Lin and 4.0 m (2.8. 4.2) on Sor. ORR was 13.0% on Lin and 6.9% on Sor. Grade 3/4 AEs, serious AEs and AEs leading to discontinuations, dose interruptions and reductions were more frequent on Lin versus Sor (all p<0.001). Conclusions: Lin and Sor resulted in similar OS in advanced HCC. Predefined superiority and non-inferiority OS boundaries were not met for Lin. Secondary endpoints (TTP and ORR) favored Lin while safety results favored Sor. Clinical trial information: NCT01009593.

e15550 Background: The combination of anti-VEGF or anti-EGFR targeted drugs with chemotherapy is the standard first-line therapy for metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC), and the followed maintenance treatment is an optional approach to balance the efficacy and toxicity. However, studies regarding the maintenance strategies based on antiangiogenic TKIs are limited currently. Anlotinib, a novel oral multi-target TKI which can inhibit both tumor angiogenesis and tumor cell proliferation simultaneously, substantially prolonged the PFS with manageable toxicity for refractory mCRC in the phase III ALTER0703 clinical trial. Here we report an update on the effectiveness and safety of anlotinib plus XELOX as first-line treatment followed by anlotinib monotherapy for mCRC. Methods: In this open label, single-arm, multicenter phase II clinical trial, 53 mCRC patients without prior systemic treated, aged 18-75 and an ECOG performance status of 0 or 1 were planned to recruit. Eligible patients received capecitabine (1000 mg/m2, po, d1-14, q3w) and oxaliplatin (130 mg/m2, iv, d1, q3w) plus anlotinib (10mg, po, d1̃14, q3w) treatment for 6 cycles. After 6 cycles of inducing therapy, patients would receive anlotinib (12mg, po, d1̃14, q3w) as maintenance therapy until disease progression or intolerable adverse events (AEs). The primary endpoint was PFS; Secondary endpoints included ORR, DCR, DOR and safety. Results: By the data analysis cutoff date of January 22, 2021, a total of 18 patients were enrolled, of which 12 patients were available for efficacy assessment. In best overall response assessment, there were 50.0% PR (6/12), 33.3% SD (4/12) and 16.7% PD (2/12). The ORR was 50.0% (95% CI, 21.1-78.9%) and DCR was 83.3% (95% CI, 51.5-97.9%). The longest duration of treatment was 8.8 months and the response was still ongoing. The median PFS was not reached. The most common treatment related adverse events (TRAEs) of any grade (≥20%) were leukopenia, hypertension, neutropenia, diarrhea, fatigue, hypertriglyceridemia. Grade 3/4 TRAEs included hypertension (22.2%), hypertriglyceridemia (11.1%), lipase elevated (11.1%) and neutropenia (5.6%). No grade 5 AEs occurred. Conclusions: The update results suggested that anlotinib combined with XELOX as first line regimen followed by anlotinib monotherapy showed promising anti-tumor activity and manageable safety for patients with mCRC. And the conclusions needed to be confirmed in trials continued subsequently. Clinical trial information: ChiCTR1900028417.

Purpose We hypothesized that the addition of gefitinib, an epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) tyrosine kinase inhibitor, to docetaxel would enhance therapeutic efficacy in squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck (SCCHN). Patients and Methods Patients with recurrent or metastatic SCCHN with Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status of 2, or patients with ECOG performance status of 0 to 2 but were previously treated with chemotherapy, were randomly assigned to receive weekly docetaxel plus either placebo (arm A) or gefitinib 250 mg/d, orally (arm B) until disease progression. At the time of progression, patients in the placebo arm could receive single-agent gefitinib. EGFR, c-MET, and KRAS mutations and polymorphisms in drug metabolizing enzymes and transporters were evaluated by pyrosequencing. Results Two hundred seventy patients were enrolled before the study was closed early at interim analysis (arm A, n = 136; arm B, n = 134). Median overall survival was 6.0 months in arm A versus 7.3 months in arm B (hazard ratio, 0.93; 95% CI, 0.72 to 1.21; P = .60). An unplanned subset analysis showed that gefitinib improved survival in patients younger than 65 years (median 7.6 v 5.2 months; P = .04). Also, there was a trend for improved survival in patients with c-MET wild-type (5.7 v 3.6 months; P = .09) regardless of treatment. Grade 3/4 toxicities were comparable between the two arms except that grade 3/4 diarrhea was more common with docetaxel/gefitinib. Of 18 eligible patients who received gefitinib after disease progression in arm A, one patient had a partial response. Conclusion The addition of gefitinib to docetaxel was well tolerated but did not improve outcomes in poor prognosis but otherwise unselected patients with SCCHN.

330 Background: Tivozanib, a potent and selective tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) of vascular endothelial growth factor receptors (VEGFR)-1, -2, and -3, has demonstrated antitumor activity in a phase II study in RCC (Proceedings of ASCO 2009, Abstract 5032). Temsirolimus, a mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) inhibitor, is approved for treatment of advanced RCC. This phase Ib open-label study examined combination tivozanib and temsirolimus therapy in pts with advanced RCC to determine the safety and tolerability, maximum tolerated dose (MTD), and clinical activity of this drug regimen. Methods: Pts with advanced RCC (with clear cell component) who had failed up to 1 prior VEGF-targeted therapy received daily oral tivozanib (3 wks on, 1 wk off = 1 cycle) and intravenous temsirolimus (once weekly). A standard 3+3 dose escalation design was used at four levels: 0.5 mg/d tivozanib and 15 mg/wk temsirolimus; 1.0 mg/d and 15 mg/wk; 1.5 mg/d and 15 mg/wk; and 1.5 mg/d and 25 mg/wk. Results: As of 9/15/10, 28 pts had been treated and accrual was closed. Demographic features were: 26 male/2 female; 89% Caucasian; median age 62 years (range, 43–71); Karnofsky Performance Status of 100/90/80 for 16, 7, and 4 pts respectively (1 pt missing data). Twenty of 28 pts (71%) had received prior VEGF-targeted therapy. Median duration of treatment was 21.1 wks (range, 0.3–94.0). Treatment-related adverse events seen in ≥10% of pts were (number of pts with all grades/grade 3 toxicity): fatigue (14/3), decreased appetite (9/0), stomatitis (7/1), thrombocytopenia (6/1), diarrhea (6/0), nausea (6/1), vomiting (3/0), and decreased weight (3/0). There were no grade 4 events. The MTD of this combination was tivozanib 1.5 mg/d and temsirolimus 25 mg/wk, and no dose limiting toxicities were encountered. Clinical activity was observed, including tumor responses in pts who had failed VEGF targeted therapies. Conclusions: The combination of tivozanib with temsirolimus was well tolerated and showed clinical activity in patients with advanced RCC. Tivozanib is the first VEGFR TKI that can be combined with temsirolimus at the full dose and schedule of both agents. [Table: see text]

LBA5000 Background: The epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) has been found to be overexpressed in 55-98% of advanced epithelial ovarian cancer. This trial evaluated the efficacy of maintenance erlotinib, an EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitor, after first-line chemotherapy. Methods: Eligible patients (pts) had high-risk FIGO stage I or stage II-IV epithelial ovarian, peritoneal or fallopian tube cancer and were not selected for EGFR expression. All patients underwent first line therapy (6-9 cycles of 3-weekly platinum-based chemotherapy (CT)) and showed no signs of progression at the end of CT. Patients were randomised to maintenance erlotinib 150 mg daily for 2 years or observation. Primary endpoint was progression-free survival (PFS) by RECIST in combination with GCIG CA125 criteria. The final design provided 80% power to detect a PFS hazard ratio (HR) of 0.80 with 2-sided log-rank test at 5% after 632 events in 830 patients. Stratifications factors were stage, institution, age, response to and type of first-line CT. Immunohistochemistry (IHC) and FISH for EGFR, and EGFR mutation analyses were performed in 330 patients. The study was registered as NCT00263822 and EudraCT number 2004-004333-34. Results: Between Oct 2005 and Feb 2008, 835 pts were randomised by 125 institutions from 10 countries. The most important baseline characteristics, PFS and OS are summarized in the table. Median follow-up was 51 months. 25% of the patients stopped erlotinib due to side effects (of these 67% due to rash). The predictive value of IHC and FISH for EGFR, and EGFR mutations are being evaluated and will be presented at the meeting. Conclusions: In the overall study populationmaintenance erlotinib after first-line treatment in ovarian cancer did not improve progression-free or overall survival. [Table: see text]

LBA10008 Background: Oral multikinase inhibitor regorafenib (REG) demonstrated substantial activity in a phase II trial in pts with GIST after failure of both IM and SU (J Clin Oncol. 2011; 29:606s; abstr 10007). This phase III, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial evaluated the efficacy and safety of REG for this unmet clinical need. Methods: Eligible pts had metastatic and/or unresectable GIST, objective failure of both prior IM and SU (progressive disease [PD] on, or intolerance to, IM and PD on SU), ≥1 measurable lesion, ECOG performance status 0 or 1. Pts were randomized 2:1 to receive best supportive care plus either REG 160 mg po once daily (3 wks on/1 wk off) or placebo (PL). The primary endpoint was progression-free survival (PFS) (modified RECIST 1.1, independent central review). Secondary endpoints included overall survival (OS), disease control rate (DCR, defined as rate of partial response [PR] plus stable disease [SD] lasting for ≥12 wks), response rate and duration, safety and correlative genotype analyses. At time of PD, pts were eligible for unblinding and crossover to open-label REG. Results: Between Jan and Aug of 2011, 234 pts were screened; 199 were randomized (REG: 133, PL: 66). Pts were stratified at randomization according to number of prior systemic therapies and geographical region. Baseline characteristics were balanced between the two arms. The primary endpoint was met: median PFS was 4.8 months for REG vs. 0.9 months for PL. Hazard ratio for PFS was 0.27 (95% CI, 0.18-0.39), p<0.0001. PFS rates at 3 and 6 months were 60% and 38% for REG vs. 11% and 0% for PL. DCR was 53% (REG) vs. 9% (PL).The HR for OS was 0.77 (p=0.20) with 85% PL pts having crossed over to REG. The most common > grade 3 treatment-emergent AEs in the REG arm during double-blind study were hypertension (28%), hand-foot skin reaction (21%), and diarrhea (8%). Conclusions: This randomized trial demonstrated that REG significantly improved PFS and DCR in pts with advanced GIST after failure of at least prior IM and SU. REG was well tolerated, with AEs as expected for this class and manageable with dose modifications.
