2518 Background: Stratum D of the INSIGHT platform trial evaluates s.c. eftilagimod alpha (efti, IMP321) combined with avelumab in advanced solid tumors. Efti is an MHC class II agonist which activates antigen-presenting cells followed by CD8 T-cell activation. Combination with PD-1/PD-L1 blockade aims at enhanced efficacy. Methods: This IIT platform trial consists of 5 strata: intratumoral (A) or intraperitoneal efti (B); s.c. efti with SOC (C) or with PD-L1 inhibition (D). Strat E is currently under development and starts soon with a new efti combination. This abstract focuses on preliminary data of Strat D. Patients (pts) received 800mg avelumab i.v. q2w along with s.c. efti: 6mg in cohort 1 (coh 1, 6 pts), 30mg in cohort 2 (coh 2, 6 pts). Primary endpoint: safety. Results: Recruitment has been completed with 12 pts (coh 1: gastric, gallbladder, colon cancer, pleural mesothelioma; coh 2: gastric, gastroesophageal, anal, rectum, cervix uteri). No dose limiting toxicities (DLTs) occurred. 10 serious adverse events (SAEs) were reported, none of them considered causally related (4 in 3 pts of coh 1 [1 acute renal insufficiency grade 5 in 1 pt, 2 preileus grade 3 in 1 pt, hearing impaired grade 4 in 1 pt] and 6 in 4 pts of coh 2 [1 anal hemorrhage and 1 gallbladder obstruction in 1 pt, 1 eye pain and 1 surgery to replace the feeding tube in 1 pt, each grade 3, 1 skin infection grade 2, 1 diffuse myocardial fibrosis grade 5]. 1 AE of special interest (AESI) possibly related with avelumab (sarcoidosis grade 1) occurred in coh 1. 2 pts completed max treatment duration with 24 cycles. In coh 1, 47 adverse events (AEs; grade 1-2, 29; grade 3, 14; grade 4, 3; grade 5, 1) occurred in 5 pts. Most common grade 1-2 AEs were nausea, pain in 33%, 33% of the pts. Most common grade 3 AEs were ileus, vomiting in 33%, 33% of the pts. 2 AEs grade 4 (hearing impaired, sepsis) and 1 AE grade 5 (acute renal insufficiency) were reported. All AEs grade 3-5 were considered causally unrelated. In coh 2, 51 adverse events (AEs; grade 1-2, 29; grade 3, 19; grade 4, 2; grade 5, 1) occurred in 5 pts. The most common grade 1-2 AE was hypothyroidism in 33% of the pts. 1 AE grade 5 (diffuse myocardial fibrosis) was reported. Only 1 AE grade 3-5 was considered causally related (urinary tract infection grade 3 related with avelumab). 5 pts showed partial response as best response (2 coh 1: colon, pleural mesothelioma; 3 coh 2: gastric, anal, cervical), 1 stable disease with clinical progression (coh 2) (all but one of these pts still alive), 5 disease progressions acc. to RECIST 1.1 (3 coh 1, 2 coh 2), 1 clinical progression (coh 1). Signals of activity were also observed in pre-treated MSS/PD-L1low pts. Conclusions: Combined treatment with avelumab 800mg and efti 6mg (coh 1) or 30 mg efti (coh 2) seems feasible and safe. No unexpected AEs occurred. Signals of efficacy with CPI combination were seen (DCR 50%). Clinical trial information: NCT03252938.

BackgroundMK-5890 is a humanized agonist monoclonal antibody that binds to CD27 to provide a costimulatory signal that enhances T-cell–mediated responses. This first-in-human phase 1 study of MK-5890 evaluated the safety and efficacy of escalating doses of MK-5890 as monotherapy and in combination with pembrolizumab in patients with advanced solid tumors.MethodsKey eligibility criteria included histologically or cytologically confirmed advanced solid tumor, measurable disease by RECIST v1.1, and ECOG PS ≤1. MK-5890 was tested alone (dose range, 2-700 mg) or with pembrolizumab (fixed dose, 200 mg). Patients with disease progression following MK-5890 monotherapy were eligible to cross over to combination treatment. The primary objective was safety and tolerability. Objective response rate by investigator per RECIST v1.1 was also evaluated. The database cutoff for this analysis was May 30, 2019.ResultsOf 44 patients enrolled, 25 received MK-5890 and 19 received MK-5890 plus pembrolizumab; their median age was 59.0 years, 61.4% were female, 47.7% had ECOG PS 1, and 13.6% previously received immune checkpoint inhibitor therapy. In the initial phase, dose-limiting toxicities (DLTs) were reported in 3 patients receiving MK-5890 and 1 patient receiving MK-5890 plus pembrolizumab; all DLTs were associated with infusion-related adverse events. Maximum tolerated dose was defined. Treatment-related adverse events (TRAEs) were reported in 40 patients (90.9%): 22 patients (88.0%) receiving MK-5890 and 18 patients (94.7%) receiving MK-5890 plus pembrolizumab. The most common TRAEs were fatigue (28.0%) and infusion-related reactions (28.0%) with MK-5890 and fatigue (36.8%) and pruritus (31.6%) with MK-5809 plus pembrolizumab. Grade 3-4 TRAEs were reported in 10 patients (22.7%): 6 patients (24.0%) receiving MK-5890 and 4 patients (21.1%) receiving MK-5890 plus pembrolizumab; no grade 5 events were observed. One patient (4.0%) achieved a partial response (PR) with MK-5890 and 1 patient (5.3%) achieved a PR with MK-5890 plus pembrolizumab. Fourteen patients entered the crossover phase to receive MK-5890 plus pembrolizumab. In the crossover phase, no DLTs were reported. TRAEs were reported in 12 patients (85.7%); the most common were pruritus (21.4%), rash (21.4%), and headache (14.3%). One patient (7.1%) reported grade 3-4 TRAEs of increased amylase and increased lipase; no grade 5 events were observed. Two patients (14.3%) achieved a complete response and 2 patients (14.3%) achieved a PR.ConclusionsTreatment with MK-5890, alone and in combination with pembrolizumab, demonstrated an acceptable safety profile. Early antitumor activity was observed in patients with advanced solid tumors in both monotherapy and combination therapy arms.

3099 Background: Stratum D of the INSIGHT study investigates the feasibility and safety of s.c. application of IMP321 (eftilagimod alpha) combined with the PD-L1 inhibitor avelumab in advanced stage solid tumors. The MHC class II agonist IMP321 activates antigen-presenting cells followed by CD8 T-cell activation. The addition of avelumab aims at enhancing activity by combining IMP321’s activating effects on immune cells with the release of immune inhibitory effects caused by interruption of the PD-1/PD-L1 axis. Methods: This investigator-initiated phase I trial consists of four strata: intratumoral (A) or intraperitoneal IMP321 (B); s.c. IMP321 with SOC (C) or with PD-L1 inhibition (D). This abstract focuses on Stratum D. Patients (pts) receive 800mg avelumab i.v. q2w along with s.c. IMP321 injections (6mg IMP321 in cohort 1 and 30mg IMP321 in cohort 2). 12 pts are planned in stratum D : 6 pts in cohort 1 and 6 pts in cohort 2. Primary endpoint is safety. Results: So far, 8 pts have been enrolled (6 in cohort 1 and 2 in cohort 2). In 6 pts (cohort 1) treated for different tumor indications (gastric, gallbladder, colon cancer, pleural mesothelioma), no dose limiting toxicities occurred. 3 serious adverse events (SAEs) (1 acute kidney injury grade 5 in 1 pt, 2 preileus grade 3 in 1 pt) were reported, none of them was related to any of the study drugs. In total, 34 adverse events (AEs; grade 1-2, 21; grade 3, 12; no grade 4; grade 5, 1) have been documented in 5 pts. Most common grade 1-2 AEs were pain, nausea, and injection site reaction in 50%, 33%, and 17% of the pts. Most common grade 3 AEs were nausea/vomiting, preileus/ileus, and ascites in 33%, 33%, and 17% of the pts. One AE grade 5 (acute kidney injury) was reported. 4 AEs grade 1-2 were possibly or definitely related to IMP321 (injection site reaction 2x; fever; lipohypertrophy), 6 AEs grade 1-2 were possibly or definitely related to avelumab (nausea 2x; chills; fever; dyspnea; lipohypertrophy). All AEs grade 3-5 were unrelated to any of the study drugs. Of the 8 pts enrolled so far, 4 had disease progression (acc. to RECIST 1.1), 1 partial response, 1 stable disease with some extent of tumor shrinkage, and 2 have not had tumor assessment yet. Conclusions: Combination treatment with avelumab 800mg and IMP321 6mg is safe and well tolerated. Cohort 2 will be presented at the meeting. Clinical trial information: NCT03252938 .

BackgroundIDO-1 inhibitors have shown antitumor activity in combination with immunotherapeutic agents in multiple cancers. KHK2455 is a novel and selective oral IDO-1 inhibitor. KHK2455 inhibits IDO-1 apo-enzyme, with long-lasting and potent activity. Mogamulizumab is an anti-C-C chemokine receptor 4 (CCR4) monoclonal antibody that has shown synergy with KHK2455 in preclinical models. Mogamulizumab is approved in the US and EU for treatment of mycosis fungoides and Sézary syndrome.MethodsIn this first-in-human study, patients with advanced solid tumors received escalating oral doses of KHK2455 alone (0.3, 1, 3, 10, 30 and 100 mg once daily) for 4 weeks (Cycle 0), followed by combination with 1 mg/kg weekly of IV mogamulizumab for 4 weeks (Cycle 1), and then on Days 1 and 15 (from Cycle 2 onward) in a standard 3+3 Phase I design. Safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics and IDO activity (kynurenine [Kyn] and tryptophan [Trp] levels and ex vivo Kyn production) were evaluated.ResultsThirty-six patients were enrolled across all cohorts. One patient with lower esophageal cancer in the 100 mg cohort exhibited dose-limiting toxicity (Grade 3 gastrointestinal necrosis). The most frequent (≥10%) treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs) are presented in table 1. Overall numbers of TEAEs, ≥Grade 3 TEAEs, and serious TEAEs related to KHK2455 and mogamulizumab are presented in table 2. Serious KHK2455-related TEAEs included gastrointestinal necrosis (KHK2455 monotherapy), and nausea and drug eruption (combination therapy). In addition, five drug-related TEAEs in combination therapy led to discontinuation; there were no fatal outcomes related to either study drug. Plasma KHK2455 concentrations reached steady state by Day 8 (Cycle 0) and increased dose-dependently. Potent dose-dependent inhibition of IDO activity was demonstrated by plasma Kyn concentration and Kyn/Trp ratio (median inhibition 70.5% and 70.8%, respectively, at 100 mg dose on Day 15, compared to baseline) and ex vivo Kyn production (>95% inhibition at ≥10 mg KHK2455), confirming target modulation. Six of 26 evaluable patients from all dosing groups achieved durable disease stabilization (≥6 months, RECIST 1.1), and one patient with bevacizumab-resistant glioblastoma demonstrated confirmed partial response (43.5% tumor reduction over a 2-year observation period). Median overall survival was 13.4 months, with 30% of subjects surviving for 2 years or longer (figure 1).Abstract 287 Table 1Study 2455-001: Treatment-Emergent Adverse Events (≥10% by Preferred Term)Abstract 287 Table 2Abstract 287 Figure 1Study 2455-001: Overall SurvivalConclusionsKHK2455 in combination with mogamulizumab was well-tolerated and manageable at all doses tested, suppressed Kyn production in a dose-dependent and sustained manner, and demonstrated signals of antitumor activity. These data support the continued development of this combination.AcknowledgementsMedical writing assistance was provided by Susan E. Johnson, PhD, S.E.

<b><i>Introduction:</i></b> Patients with advanced pancreatic cancer have a poor prognosis. FOLFIRINOX (FFX) and gemcitabine plus nab-paclitaxel (GnP) have been established as first-line treatment, but they have not been confirmed as second-line treatment after FFX. The aim of this study was to evaluate the safety and efficacy of GnP as second-line therapy after FFX in patients with unresectable pancreatic cancer. <b><i>Methods:</i></b> Twenty-five patients with unresectable pancreatic cancer were enrolled. The patients were treated with GnP after FFX between September 2015 and September 2019. Tumor response, progression-free survival (PFS), overall survival (OS), and incidence of adverse events were evaluated. <b><i>Results:</i></b> The response rate, disease control rate, median PFS, and median OS were 12%, 96%, 5.3 months, and 15.6 months, respectively. The common grade 3 or 4 adverse events were neutropenia (76%) and anemia (16%). <b><i>Conclusions:</i></b> GnP after FOLFIRINOX is expected to be one of the second-line recommendations for patients with unresectable pancreatic cancer.

Abstract Background Irinotecan-based doublet chemotherapy strategy was standard second-line backbone treatment for patients with oxaliplatin‑refractory metastatic colorectal cancer(mCRC). The aim of this study was to evaluate tolerability and efficacy of raltitrexed combined with irinotecan biweekly administered as the second-line therapy for mCRC patients.Methods The study was a single-center, non-randomized, open-label phase II trial. Patients with mCRC after failure with first-line treatment of oxaliplatin and fluoropyrimidine or its derivatives were enrolled. Irinotecan (180 mg/m2) and raltitrexed (2.5 mg/m2) were given intravenously on day 1. Cycles were repeated every 2 weeks. The primary endpoint was progression-free survival, and the secondary endpoints included overall response rate, disease control rate, overall survival and treatment related adverse events. Results Between December 2012 and October 2016, 35 patients were enrolled. 33 and 35 patients were assessed for response and safety, respectively. The overall response rate (ORR) was 8.6 %, and the disease control rate (DCR) was 71.4%. The median progression-free survival (PFS) was 4.5 months (95% CI 3.8–5.2). The median overall survival was 12.0 months (95% CI 8.5–15.5). Four patients received conversion therapy to no evidence of disease (NED), and 2 patients were still alive with beyond 24 months survival. The most common grade 3/4 hematological adverse events were leukopenia (8.6%), neutropenia (5.7%). The most common grade 3/4 nonhematological adverse events were anorexia (14.3%), vomiting (14.3%), nausea (11.4%) and fatigue (8.6%). Two patients discontinued the protocol treatment because of treatment-related gastrointestinal adverse events. No one died from treatment-related events. The incidence and severity of toxicity was irrelevant to UGT1A1 status.Conclusions The combination of irinotecan with raltitrexed is an active, convenient and acceptable toxic regimen for second-line treatment for mCRC patients, which needs further study as a chemotherapy backbone to be combined with targeted agents in mCRC.Trial registration No. ChiCTR-ONC-12002767. The study was registered with the Chinese Clinical Trial Registry at 29 Octorber 2012, http://www.chictr.org.cn/index.aspx.

Background: This network meta-analysis assessed the comparative risk of grade 3–5 and grade 5 treatment-related adverse events (TRAEs) for immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs), either alone or in combination with other modalities, for cancer treatment. Methods: PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library, Web of Science, and recent predominant oncology congresses were searched for relevant phase II and phase III randomized controlled trials (RCTs). As outcomes, grade 3–5, and grade 5 TRAE outcomes were reported as odds ratios and 95% confidence intervals. Results: In 67 RCTs involving 36,422 patients and 19 ICIs, the incidence of grade 3–5 and grade 5 TRAEs was 17.9% and 0.8% with ICI monotherapy and 46.3% and 1.4%, respectively, with combinatorial therapy. Pneumonitis was the most common cause of grade 5 TRAEs following either monotherapy (16.3%) or combinatorial therapy (11.4%). Regarding grade 3–5 TRAEs, atezolizumab + chemotherapy (CT) and antiangiogenic therapy (AT) (atezolizumab + CAT), pembrolizumab + CT, ipilimumab + CT, and atezolizumab + CT were more toxic than any ICI monotherapy, pembrolizumab or nivolumab + radiotherapy (RT), and ICIs dual therapy (durvalumab + tremelimumab and nivolumab + ipilimumab). Tremelimumab, ipilimumab, durvalumab, and pembrolizumab were, however, associated with higher grade 5 TRAEs than combinatorial treatments. Atezolizumab + CAT was the most toxic and nivolumab + RT was the least toxic of combinatorial treatments; among monotherapies, tremelimumab and avelumab were the most and least toxic, respectively. The toxicity ranking changed with type of grade 3–5 TRAEs. Conclusions: Compared with combinatorial therapy, ICI monotherapy caused lower grade 3–5 TRAEs, but some monotherapies resulted in a higher incidence of fatal TRAEs. Atezolizumab + CAT and nivolumab + RT were the most and least toxic of combinatorial treatments, respectively, and tremelimumab and avelumab were the most and least toxic of the monotherapies, respectively.

PurposeThe major cause of death in aggressive lymphoma is relapse or nonresponse to initial therapy. Lenalidomide has activity in a variety of hematologic malignancies, including non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL). We report the results of a phase II, single-arm, multicenter trial evaluating the safety and efficacy of lenalidomide oral monotherapy in patients with relapsed or refractory aggressive NHL.Patients and MethodsPatients were treated with oral lenalidomide 25 mg once daily on days 1 to 21, every 28 days, for 52 weeks, until disease progression or intolerance. The primary end point was response; secondary end points included duration of response, progression-free survival (PFS), and safety.ResultsForty-nine patients with a median age of 65 years received lenalidomide in this study. The most common histology was diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (53%), and patients had received a median of four prior treatment regimens for NHL. An objective response rate of 35% was observed in 49 treated patients, including a 12% rate of complete response/unconfirmed complete response. Responses were observed in each aggressive histologic subtype tested (diffuse large B-cell, follicular center grade 3, mantle cell, and transformed lymphomas). Of patients with stable disease or partial response at first assessment, 25% improved with continued treatment. Estimated median duration of response was 6.2 months, and median PFS was 4.0 months. The most common grade 4 adverse events were neutropenia (8.2%) and thrombocytopenia (8.2%); the most common grade 3 adverse events were neutropenia (24.5%), leukopenia (14.3%), and thrombocytopenia (12.2%).ConclusionOral lenalidomide monotherapy is active in relapsed or refractory aggressive NHL, with manageable side effects.

8531 Background: MET and VEGF signaling are implicated in angiogenesis, invasion, and metastasis. Cabozantinib (cabo) is an oral, potent inhibitor of MET and VEGFR2. A RDT evaluated activity and safety in 9 tumor types. Here we report on the metastatic melanoma cohort, including the ocular subtype. Methods: Eligible patients (pts) were required to have progressive measurable disease per RECIST. Pts received cabo at 100 mg qd over a 12 wk Lead-in stage. Tumor response (mRECIST) was assessed q6 wks. Treatment ≥ wk 12 was based on response: pts with PR continued open-label cabo, pts with SD were randomized to cabo vs placebo, and pts with PD discontinued. Primary endpoint in the randomized phase was progression free survival (PFS). Results: Enrollment to this cohort is complete (n = 77); all pts are unblinded. Baseline characteristics: median age 66 years; melanoma subtype: cutaneous/mucosal 70% and ocular 30%; known BRAF mutation 32%; LDH ≥ 1.1 x upper limit normal 35%; bone metastases 19%; median prior lines of therapy 1 (range 0-5). Median follow-up was 2.8 months (range 0.3 - 25). 35 pts (45%) completed the open-label Lead-in stage with 25 pts randomized to continue cabo (n=12) or to placebo (n=13). Median PFS from randomization was 5.7 months for cabo vs. 3 months for placebo (HR=0.3, p =0.055). Median PFS from Study Day 1 was 4.4 months. The estimate of PFS at month 6 (PFS6) is 44%. Evidence of objective tumor regression was observed in 39/65 pts (60%) with ≥ 1 post-baseline tumor assessment including 11/23 pts (48%) with ocular melanoma. Two bone scan evaluable pts demonstrated partial resolution of bone lesions at wk 6 accompanied by pain relief. Most common Grade 3/4 AEs were fatigue (14%), HTN (9%), constipation (4%), and diarrhea (3%); one related Grade 5 AE of diverticular perforation and peritonitis reported during Lead-in stage. Conclusions: Cabo demonstrates activity in metastatic melanoma pts, regardless of subtypes or BRAF mutation status, with improvement in PFS relative to placebo, and high rates of PFS6 and objective tumor regression. The safety profile of cabo was comparable to that of other VEGFR TKIs.

778 Background: Regorafenib is an oral multi-kinase inhibitor that has demonstrated significant overall survival for metastatic colorectal cancer in CORRECT study. In the Japanese subset of CORRECT study, adverse events (AEs) such as hand-foot skin reaction (HFSR), anorexia, and liver dysfunction occurred at high frequency. Therefore, those AEs were one of the causes for treatment discontinuation. Methods: We retrospectively analyzed the safety and efficacy in 14 patients who received regorafenib monotherapy in our hospital between June 2013 and August 2014. Results: Among the 14 patients, median age was 64.5 years old (range 53-76). Median follows up time was 209 days (range 72-340), median PFS was 64 days (range 19-272), and median TTF was 66.5 days (range 18-280). There was no patient who had complete or partial response. The disease control rate was 36%. Nine patients initiated with 160 mg of regorafenib once daily, 4 patients with 120 mg, and one patient with 80 mg. The most common grade 3 or more AEs were HFSR, AST and ALT elevations and hypertension (2 patients, 14.2%, respectively). The frequency of HFSR was lower in our cohort the Japanese patients of CORRECT study. Treatment discontinuation due to drug related AEs occurred to 5 patients (35.7%). Dose reduction and interruption of regorafenib were required in 10 patients (71.4%) and 8 patients (57.1%), respectively. For prevention of HFSR, more than 90% of the patients were received proactive treatment including heparinoid and strong steroid from the start of the therapy. We carefully monitored their toxicities every week during the first cycle, and chose interruption if patients were had more grade 2 AEs. It is very important, we think to give the patients instructions on possible AEs and how to manage them using an illustrated book. Conclusions: Our cohort had lower HFSR in frequency than and similar efficacy to the Japanese subpopulation in CORRECT study. Enough explanation and instruction to patients might be important to decrease an incidence of AEs and treatment discontinuation due to drug- related AEs. We will increase the number of cases and examine in future.

e16518 Background: Older men are at a high risk for adverse events (AEs) from androgen deprivation therapy (ADT). In this phase II study, we evaluated Enz and Dut/Fin in lieu of ADT for at-risk older patients with HNSPCa. Methods: Eligible patients were ≥65 years (y); at high risk of AEs from ADT by GA or treating physicians; metastatic (M1) or non-metastatic (M0) HNSPCa with a PSA doubling time ≤ 9 months and testosterone > 50ng/dl. They received Enz 160 mg/day and Dut 0.5 mg/day or Fin 5 mg/day until disease progression. GA was performed at baseline and week (wk) 61 and/or at the time of progression. GA included validated tests: Instrumental Activities of Daily Living (IADL), fall history, Short Physical Performance Battery (SPPB), Geriatric Depression Scale (GDS), and Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MOCA). The prevalence of impairment for each assessment was calculated; change in prevalence from baseline to wk 61 was analyzed using paired sample t-test. Results: 43 patients were enrolled in the study. Median age at enrollment was 78 y (range 66-94) and 93% were ECOG 0-1; 37% (n = 16) had M0 and 63% (n = 27) had M1 HNSPCa, with the majority (67%) having Gleason 6 or 7 disease. At baseline, 18.6% met the cutoff for impairment for IADLs, 53.7% for SPPB, 7.9% for GDS and 64.3% for MOCA; 9.8% had a recent fall. Median baseline PSA was 11.38 ng/ml (range: 2-145). At the time of analysis, 29 men (67.4%) remain on study treatment. 95.3%, 74.4% and 46.5% of patients reported at least one Grade 1, 2 or 3 AE respectively. No patient had a Grade 4 AE and one Grade 5 AE was reported but was an unrelated event. The most common Grade 3 AEs were hypertension (27.8%), GI (19.4%), and cardiac (8.3%); all Grade 3 GI AEs reported were deemed unrelated to the study drugs. Only impairment in ≥ 1 IADL showed a statistically significant increase in prevalence at wk 61 of treatment (40.6%) compared to baseline (18.6%, p = 0.036). Conclusions: For older men with HNSPCa, Enz with Dut/Fin demonstrated efficacy with reasonable toxicity profile, and no significant impact on the majority of GA domains.
