494 Background: Pembrolizumab (pembro) is a new standard of care in chemotherapy (CT) pre-treated patients (pts) with metastatic UC. Nab-paclitaxel (nPtx) demonstrated preliminary activity in advanced UC. In the PEANUT study (NCT03464734) we investigate their combination in advanced UC after CT failure. Methods: In an open-label, single-arm, phase 2 trial, pts receive 200 mg pembro, intravenously (IV), on D1 and 125 mg/m2 IV nPtx on D1 and D8, every 3 weeks, until disease progression (PD) or onset of unacceptable toxicity. Key inclusion criteria are: predominant UC histology, failure of ≤2 platinum-based CT for metastatic disease. Response is evaluated by RECIST v.1.1 criteria every 2 cycles. Biomarkers include PD-L1 expression with the combined positive score (CPS) and comprehensive genomic profiling on tumor and blood samples (FoundationONE and FoundationACT assay). The primary endpoint of the study is the progression-free survival (PFS). The target is to detect an improvement in the median PFS from ≤3.0 months (H0) to ≥5.0 months (H1). Results: Between 01 and 08/2019, PEANUT enrolled 46 pts evaluable for the study endpoint: 26% female, median age 66 y (range 43-78); 70% had failed 1 prior systemic therapy vs 30% 2 prior therapies; 24% had ECOG-performance status 1; 28% had liver metastases. The median TMB was 6.9 mut/Mb. After median follow-up of 5 months, 18 pts have relapsed (39%). The projected median PFS was 7 months (95%CI: 4-not achieved). The confirmed objective response-rate (ORR) was 47.8% (95%CI: 32.9-63.1): 18 partial responses and 4 complete responses (8.7%). Grade 3 treatment-related adverse events (TRAE) were seen in 6 pts (13%). Most common any-grade TRAE included alopecia (91%), asthenia (21.7%), and neutropenia (15%). Neither TMB nor CPS were significantly associated with PFS on univariable analyses. 7/8 pts with PI3KCA mutations in matched tumor/blood samples had an objective response (87.5%). Conclusions: Preliminary results from PEANUT study demonstrated a promising PFS and a clinically meaningful ORR in II-III line setting of advanced UC. Updated data, including mature PFS, duration of response and biomarkers will be presented. Clinical trial information: NCT03464734.

Final results of PEANUT: Pembrolizumab and nanoparticle albumin-bound paclitaxel (nab-paclitaxel) as salvage therapy for metastatic urothelial carcinoma (UC).

The primary endpoint was the progression-free survival (PFS). The target was to detect an improvement in the median PFS from ≤3.0 months (H0) to ≥5.0 months (H1). Results: Between 01 and 12/2019, PEANUT study enrolled 65 pts: 24% were female, median age was 69 yrs (IQR: 61-73); 25% had failed > 1 prior systemic therapies; 35% had ECOG-performance status 1; 33% had liver metastases. The median TMB was 6.9 mut/Mb. After median follow-up (FUP) of 5.5 months, 34 pts have relapsed (52.3%). The median PFS was 5 months (95%CI: 3-not reached). The 3-month PFS was 60.7% (95%CI: 49.8-74.1). The confirmed objective response-rate (ORR) was 47.7% (95%CI: 35.2-60.4): 22 partial responses and 9 complete responses (13.8%). The median duration of response was not reached, and 4 pts (6.1%) are long-term responders ( > 12 months). Grade 3 treatment-related adverse events (TRAE) were seen in 20 pts (30.7%). Most common any-grade TRAE included alopecia (76%), neutropenia (33.3%) and asthenia (33%). Neither TMB nor CPS were significantly associated with PFS on univariable analyses. In matched tumor/blood samples, objective responses were seen in 8/10 pts with PI3KCA mutations (80%); 6/10 pts with RB1 alterations (60%); 5/12 pts with DNA damage repair gene alterations (41.7%). Conclusions: Pembro-nab-paclitaxel, the first salvage CT-immunotherapy combination in UC, demonstrated a good tolerability, promising PFS and a clinically meaningful ORR in II-III line setting of advanced UC. As more mature data on biomarker selection emerges, this combination warrants additional studies in either second-line or earlier disease settings. Clinical trial information: NCT03464734 .

TPS9114 Background: Transforming growth factor β (TGF- β) promotes tumor progression via immune- and non–immune-related processes. M7824 is an innovative first-in-class bifunctional fusion protein composed of 2 extracellular domains of TGF-βRII (a TGF-β “trap”) fused to a human IgG1 monoclonal antibody against PD-L1. Targeting these independent and complementary pathways may restore and enhance antitumor responses. An expansion cohort of the NCT02517398 study of patients with advanced NSCLC (n = 80) treated with M7824 in the second-line setting presented at ESMO 2018 showed an objective response rate of 86% in the subgroup with high PD-L1 tumor expression at the recommended phase 2 dose (1200 mg intravenously [IV] every 2 weeks [Q2W]). Observed data support the hypothesis that M7824 may be superior to other PD-(L)1 inhibitors, including pembrolizumab, for the treatment of NSCLC. Based on the promising antitumor activity and manageable safety profile, this study will evaluate M7824 treatment in patients with advanced NSCLC in the 1L setting. Methods: Here we present a global, randomized trial comparing M7824 vs pembrolizumab in the 1L treatment of patients with metastatic NSCLC with high PD-L1 expression levels. Patients in this study must have a histologically confirmed diagnosis of advanced NSCLC with high PD-L1 expression on tumor cells (defined as either ≥80% by the Dako 73-10 pharmDx kit or ≥50% by the Dako 22C3 pharmDx kit since both assays are expected to select a similar patient population at their respective cut-offs). ECOG performance status must be 0 or 1. Patients must not have received prior systemic treatment for advanced NSCLC. Patients with tumors with actionable mutations (for which targeted therapy is locally approved) are not eligible. Patients will receive 1200 mg Q2W or pembrolizumab 200 mg Q3W as an IV infusion until confirmed disease progression, unacceptable toxicity, or trial withdrawal. Dual primary endpoints are progression-free survival and best overall response; key secondary endpoints include overall survival, duration of response, and safety. Estimated enrollment is 300 patients. Clinical trial information: NCT03631706.

8558 Background: The anti-CTLA-4 tremelimumab at two different dose-schedules of administration showed promising activity in second-line malignant mesothelioma (MM) patients (Calabrò et al., Lancet Oncol, 2013; Calabrò et al., Lancet Respir Med, 2015). These initial results and the efficacy of targeting the PD-1/PD-L1 axis in different tumor types, prompted the NIBIT-MESO-1 study aimed at investigating the efficacy and safety of tremelimumab combined with the anti-PD-L1 durvalumab in mm patients. We report the safety analysis from the fully-enrolled NIBIT-MESO-1 study. Methods: The NIBIT-MESO-1 is a phase II, open-label, single Center study. Forty mm patients received tremelimumab at 1 mg/Kg i.v. every 4 weeks (Q4W) for 4 doses, and durvalumab at 20 mg/Kg i.v. Q4W for 13 doses. Primary objective is immune-related (ir)-objective response rate; secondary are safey, ir-disease control rate, ir-progression free survival, and overall survival. Tumor assessment per ir-modified RECIST or ir-RECIST 1.1 for pleural or peritoneal MM, respectively, was performed at baseline and q12 weeks. Adverse events (AEs) were recorded according to CTC v4.0. (ClinicalTrials.gov Id: NCT02588131). Results: From October 2015 to October 2016, 40 mm patients (38 pleural and 2 peritoneal), median age 64 years (range 41-80), ECOG performance status 0 (n = 19) or 1 (n = 21) were enrolled in the study. mm histology was epithelioid (n = 32), biphasic (n = 5), sarcomatoid (n = 2) or undefined (n = 1). As of January 2017, 12 first or 28 second-line mm patients received a median of 5.5 doses of therapy (range = 1-13). Twenty-four patients (60%) experienced any grade irAEs: 5 patients (12.5%) had grade 3-4 AEs, the most frequent being hepatotoxicity (7.5%). AEs were generally manageable and reversible per protocol guidelines. Three patients (7.5%) were discontinued due to treatment-related AEs (1 trombocytopenia, 1 limbic encephalitis, 1 liver toxicity). Conclusions: The combination of tremelimumab and durvalumab is safe and manageable in mm patients. Clinical trial information: NCT02588131.

TPS725 Background: T-VEC is a genetically modified, oncolytic herpes simplex virus type 1 designed to selectively replicate within tumors and produce GM-CSF to enhance systemic antitumor immune responses. Atezolizumab is a monoclonal antibody checkpoint inhibitor (CPI) that targets PD-L1. The safety of intrahepatic administration of T-VEC has been demonstrated in a prior clinical trial (NCT02509507). A previous trial of T-VEC in combination with a CPI in advanced melanoma demonstrated improved responses compared to those with a CPI alone (Puzanov et al. JCO. 2016; 34:2619-26). We hypothesize that T-VEC combined with a CPI may also be effective in other tumor types. This phase 1b, multicenter study evaluates the safety of intrahepatic injection of T-VEC in combination with IV atezolizumab in pts with TNBC or CRC with LMs. Methods: The study will enroll up to 36 pts in two parallel cohorts (18 TNBC, 18 CRC) at sites in the USA, Europe, and Australia. The primary objective is to evaluate the incidence of dose-limiting toxicities (DLTs). Secondary objectives include objective response rate, lesion-level responses in injected and uninjected tumors, progression-free survival, and overall survival. Key eligibility criteria include age ≥ 18 years, confirmed diagnosis of TNBC or CRC with LMs, ECOG performance status 0/1, adequate organ function, disease progression during or after ≥ 1 prior standard-of-care systemic therapy for metastatic disease, and ≥ 1 measurable, injectable LM. T-VEC will be given by image-guided intralesional injection of up to 4 mL of 106 plaque forming units (PFU)/mL on day 1 and up to 4 mL of 108 PFU/mL every 21 days thereafter; atezolizumab 1,200 mg IV will be given on day 1 and every 21 days thereafter. The DLT-evaluation period is the first two cycles (1 cycle = 21 days). Interim safety analysis will occur after the first 4–6 pts have become DLT evaluable. Up to six cycles of T-VEC will be given with an additional 6 cycles allowed. After cycle three, nonhepatic lesions may be injected, subject to protocol-defined criteria. The study opened for enrollment in January 2018. (NCT03256344) Clinical trial information: NCT03256344.

4537 Background: KEYNOTE-061 (NCT02370498) was a randomized, open-label, phase 3 study of pembrolizumab vs paclitaxel in pts with advanced gastric or gastroesophageal junction (GEJ) adenocarcinoma with tumor progression after first-line therapy (N = 592). In this analysis, we evaluated tTMB using FoundationOne CDx (F1CDx; Foundation Medicine) in pts with gastric or GEJ cancer in KEYNOTE-061. Methods: In pts with evaluable F1CDx tTMB data (n = 204), we analyzed the association of tTMB with confirmed objective response rate (ORR), progression-free survival (PFS), and overall survival (OS) within each treatment arm using one-sided (pembrolizumab) and two-sided (paclitaxel) Wald test nominal P for logistic regression (ORR) and Cox proportional hazards regression (PFS; OS) adjusted for ECOG performance status; significance was prespecified at 0.05. The clinical utility of tTMB was assessed using the prespecified cutoff of 10 mut/Mb for F1CDx. Clinical data cutoff: Oct 26, 2017. Results: tTMB was positively associated with ORR ( P < 0.001; AUROC, 0.68), PFS ( P < 0.001), and OS ( P = 0.003) with pembrolizumab but not paclitaxel (ORR, P = 0.047; AUROC, 0.30; PFS, P = 0.605; OS, P = 0.084). Pt outcomes by tTMB cutoff are reported in the Table; prevalence of TMB ≥10 mut/Mb was 17%. In pts with microsatellite stable disease-only, HRs (95% CI) by treatment arm for OS by F1CDx cutoff were 0.40 (0.14-1.17) for tTMB ≥10 mut/Mb (n = 21) vs 0.97 (0.70-1.34) for tTMB <10 mut/Mb (n = 168). Conclusions: In this exploratory analysis from KEYNOTE-061, tTMB as determined by F1CDx demonstrated a positive association with clinical outcomes with pembrolizumab, but not paclitaxel, in pts with GC; these findings are consistent with those reported with whole exome sequencing. Pembrolizumab demonstrated an OS benefit vs paclitaxel in the subgroup with tTMB ≥10 mut/Mb, which remained when pts with microsatellite instability-high disease were excluded.

6022 Background: Dasatinib is a potent inhibitor of src-family kinases, ephA2, PDGFR, Abl, and c-kit. A single-center, open-label, phase II trial was conducted to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK), and efficacy of dasatinib in recurrent or metastatic HNSCC. Methods: Pts with measurable disease by RECIST, who received 0 or 1 prior regimen for recurrent or metastatic HNSCC with an ECOG performance status 0–1 and tumor tissue appropriate for IHC and FISH were eligible. Dasatinib 100 mg bid was given for 28-day cycles. Primary endpoints were 12-wk progression-free survival (PFS) and objective response rate (ORR). Pts who took at least 1 dose of dasatinib and who died or left study before 12 wks were counted as progressive disease (PD). A 2 stage design, closure after accrual of 15 pts was required if PFS was 45% or less and ORR was 0. Otherwise, planned accrual was 35. Response was assessed at 4 and 12 wks. PK was studied in pts receiving dasatinib per PEG. Biomarkers relevant to Src pathway were planned in tissue and blood. Results: Fifteen pts were accrued. To date, 13 pts are evaluable for response, and 15 pts for toxicity. No grade 3/4 hematologic toxicities were noted. Grade 2–4 nonhematologic toxicities(n): pleural effusion(2), nausea/vomiting(2), dehydration(1), diarrhea(1), dyspnea(1). Toxicity led to hospitalization of 4 pts and drug discontinuation in 5 pts. ORR was 0. One pt was stable at 12 wks (PFS: 7.6%). This pt stopped drug at 15 wks due to toxicity, but also had PD. One pt died on study and cause was deemed unlikely related. Conclusions: Dosed at 100mg bid, dasatinib led to a characteristic toxicity profile in this pt population. Rates of hospitalization and discontinuation for toxicity were fairly high. Final efficacy parameters are pending evaluation of 2 pts. Evaluation of PK and tissue/blood biomarkers is ongoing. No significant financial relationships to disclose.

Phase 2 Trial

493 Background: Standard 1L mCRC treatment (tx) includes a CT backbone (e.g., modified leucovorin [LV]/5-fluorouracil [5-FU]/oxaliplatin [mFOLFOX6] or LV/ 5-FU/ irinotecan [FOLFIRI]) and biologic therapy (e.g., BV). The preferred CT backbone for anti VEGF tx is unknown. MAVERICC (NCT01374425), a global, randomized, open-label, phase 2 trial, assessed tx efficacy and safety of mFOLFOX6-BV vs FOLFIRI-BV in pts with mCRC. Intratumoral ERCC1 and plasma VEGF-A were studied as biomarkers for oxaliplatin- and BV-containing tx, respectively. Methods: Pts with mCRC (≥1 measurable metastatic lesion, ECOG performance status ≤1) were randomized 1:1 to receive BV (5 mg/kg) + mFOLFOX6 or FOLFIRI every 2 weeks, stratified by ERCC1 level (low [£1.7] vs high [>1.7]) and region. VEGF-A levels were measured at baseline. Primary objectives were to evaluate: ERCC1 as a biomarker of progression-free survival (PFS) in 1L mCRC tx (mFOLFOX-BV vs FOLFIRI); and VEGF-A as a biomarker for BV and as a biomarker in combination with ERCC1 for PFS following CT + BV. Secondary objectives were to evaluate: the effect of ERCC1 and VEGF-A on overall survival (OS), objective response rate, hepatic metastases resection, and safety. PFS and OS were estimated by Kaplan–Meier methods, hazard ratios (HR) were estimated by Cox regression, and p-values were based on stratified log-rank tests. ERCC1 biomarker analyses are presented here. Results: A total of 376 pts were randomized: median age, 61 yr; white race, 83%; US region, 85%. Baseline characteristics: ERCC1 high, 35%; KRAS mutant, 34%. Efficacy results are shown (see Table). Conclusion: Consistent with previous findings, PFS and OS were comparable in pts treated with either 1L mFOLFOX6-BV or FOLFIRI-BV. Exploratory analyses within pts with high ERCC1 levels suggest consistent results. VEGF-A analyses are ongoing. Clinical trial information: NCT01374425. [Table: see text] [Table: see text]

9000 Background: In the randomized phase 3 CheckMate 9LA trial (NCT03215706), first-line NIVO + IPI combined with 2 cycles of chemo significantly improved overall survival (OS), progression-free survival (PFS), and objective response rate (ORR) vs chemo alone (4 cycles). Clinical benefit was observed regardless of programmed death ligand 1 (PD-L1) expression level and histology. Here we report data with 2 years’ minimum follow-up from this study. Methods: Adult patients (pts) with stage IV / recurrent NSCLC, ECOG performance status ≤ 1, and no known sensitizing EGFR/ALK alterations were stratified by PD-L1 (< 1% vs ≥ 1%), sex, and histology (squamous vs non-squamous) and were randomized 1:1 to NIVO 360 mg Q3W + IPI 1 mg/kg Q6W + chemo (2 cycles; n = 361) or chemo alone (4 cycles; n = 358). Pts with non-squamous NSCLC in the chemo-alone arm could receive pemetrexed maintenance. The primary endpoint was OS. Secondary endpoints included PFS and ORR by blinded independent central review, and efficacy by different PD-L1 levels. Safety was exploratory. Results: At a minimum follow-up of 24.4 months for OS (database lock: Feb 18, 2021), pts treated with NIVO + IPI + chemo continued to derive OS benefit vs chemo, with a median OS of 15.8 months vs 11.0 months, respectively (HR, 0.72 [95% CI, 0.61–0.86]); 2-year OS rates were 38% vs 26%. Median PFS with NIVO + IPI + chemo vs chemo was 6.7 months vs 5.3 months (HR, 0.67 [95% CI, 0.56–0.79]); 8% and 37% of pts who had disease progression received subsequent immunotherapy, respectively. ORR was 38% with NIVO + IPI + chemo vs 25% with chemo. Similar clinical benefit with NIVO + IPI + chemo vs chemo was observed in all randomized pts and across the majority of subgroups, including by PD-L1 expression level (Table) or histology. Any grade and grade 3–4 treatment-related adverse events were reported in 92% and 48% of pts in the NIVO + IPI + chemo arm vs 88% and 38% in the chemo arm, respectively. Conclusion: With 2 years’ minimum follow-up, first-line NIVO + IPI + chemo demonstrated durable survival and benefit versus chemo in pts with advanced NSCLC; no new safety signals were identified. Clinical trial information: NCT03215706. [Table: see text]

415 Background: Metastatic urothelial carcinoma (mUC) is an aggressive disease with a median overall survival (OS) of ≈ 15 months. In the first-line setting, key prognostic factors include ECOG performance status, white blood cell count, and response to treatment per the Galsky nomogram. Bone metastases (BM) in mUC are associated with morbidity and mortality but are grouped with visceral disease; hence, their impact on prognosis is not well established. We aimed to assess the survival impact of BM in mUC patients treated with first-line platinum-based chemotherapy (PBC). Methods: A retrospective collection of patient and tumor characteristics, with clinical response to treatment (complete response [CR], partial response [PR]; stable disease [SD] or progressive disease [PD]) for patients treated at Princess Margaret Cancer Centre, Tom Baker Cancer Centre, and Cross Cancer Institute from 2005-2018 was performed. Progression-free survival (PFS) and OS were estimated using the Kaplan-Meier method. Univariate (UVA) followed by multivariate analysis (MVA) of patient variables [Cox] using PFS and OS was performed. Results: Overall 376 mUC patients were included; 222 (59%) had soft-tissue metastases (STM) only, 70 (19%) had bone-only metastases, and 84 (22%) had both STM and BM. Overall, 35% had PR or CR, 19% had SD, and 39% had PD (7%: unknown response). The median PFS and OS for the whole cohort were 5.6 months (95%CI: 4.8-6.4) and 9.7 months (95% CI: 8.8-10.8) respectively. Select UVA by metastatic site showed inferior PFS for bone-only (p=0.03) and combination STM and BM (p=0.017). Only combination STM and BM were significant on UVA for OS (p=0.002). MVA showed that bone-only metastases (p=0.03) and ECOG 3-4 (p<0.0001) were associated with worse PFS (Table). Predictors of worse OS were the combination of STM and BM (p=0.02), ECOG 3-4 (p=0.001), and WBCs ≥ULN (p=0.02), (Table). Conclusions: BM are a significant predictor of worse outcomes for mUC patients treated with first-line PBC. Consideration as a treatment stratification factor for future studies is suggested. Strategies for the treatment of mUC patients with BM (ie: bone targeted agents) in the first-line setting should be addressed in future trials. [Table: see text]
