9541 Background: In KEYNOTE-555, a model-based approach suggested expected drug exposure with pembro 400 mg Q6W is similar to that observed with approved doses of pembro 200 mg or 2 mg/kg Q3W. The pembro Q6W dose is now approved. We present interim efficacy, safety and PK of 1L pembro 400 mg Q6W for patients (pts) with advanced melanoma in KEYNOTE-555 Cohort B (NCT03665597). Methods: Eligible pts had unresectable stage III or IV melanoma, ECOG PS ≤1, and no prior systemic therapy for advanced disease.Pts received pembro 400 mg Q6W for up to 18 cycles (≈2 years).The primary efficacy endpoint was ORR per RECIST v1.1 by blinded independent central review (BICR). Secondary endpoints included PFS by BICR per RECIST v1.1 and safety. PK profile and exposure were evaluated for cycle 1 and steady state (cycle 4). Results: Between May 2019 and Jan 2020, 101 pts were enrolled and received ≥1 dose of pembro. Baseline characteristics were generally similar to pt cohorts of historical pembro studies in advanced melanoma. As of the data cutoff date of August 6, 2020, all pts had ≥6 mo of follow-up and 40.6% of pts had discontinued study treatment. Median (range) duration of treatment and doses administered were 8.2 mo (1 day–13.9 mo) and 6 (1–11) doses, respectively. Observed exposure with pembro 400 mg Q6W had lower variability than model predictions and was within PK parameters from clinical experience with other pembro regimens (Table). ORR was 50.5% (95% CI 40.4–60.6). 12.9% of pts had CR and 37.6% had PR. Median PFS was 13.8 mo (95% CI 3.0–not reached). Estimated PFS rates were 56.5% at 6 mo and 54.3% at 12 mo. Treatment-related AEs of any grade occurred in 79.2% of pts (grade 3–4: 6.9% of pts; no deaths due to a treatment-related AE). The most common immune-mediated AEs were hyperthyroidism (6.9%) and hypothyroidism (6.9%). Conclusions: 1L treatment with pembro 400 mg Q6W yielded a clinically meaningful ORR in pts with advanced melanoma. PK, efficacy and safety results from KEYNOTE-555 Cohort B support prior findings from the model-based assessment and indicate that the benefit-risk profile for the more practical pembro 400 mg Q6W regimen is consistent with that of 200 mg or 2 mg/kg Q3W regimens.

11565 Background: TAPUR is a phase II basket study evaluating anti-tumor activity of commercially available targeted agents in pts with advanced cancers with genomic alterations. Results in a cohort of STS pts with CDK4 amplification treated with P are reported. Methods: Eligible pts had advanced STS, no standard treatment options, measurable disease, ECOG PS 0-2, and adequate organ function. Genomic testing was performed in CLIA-certified, CAP-accredited site selected labs. Pts received P at 125 mg orally once daily for 21 days, followed by 7 days off until disease progression. Pts matched to P had CDK4 amplification and no RB mutations. Simon 2-stage design tested the null disease control (DC) - defined as partial (PR), complete response (CR) or stable disease at 16+ weeks (SD 16+) - rate of 15% vs. 35% (power = 0.85; α = 0.10). If ≥2 of 10 pts in stage 1 have DC, 18 more pts are enrolled. If ≥7 of 28 pts have DC, the null DC rate is rejected. Secondary endpoints are progression-free survival (PFS), overall survival (OS) and safety. Results: 29 pts (66% male) with STS with CDK4 amplification were enrolled from July 2016 to Nov 2019. 1 pt was not evaluable and excluded from efficacy analyses. Demographics and outcomes are summarized in Table. One pt with partial response (PR) and 12 pts with SD16+ were observed for DC and objective response (OR) rates of 48% (95% CI: 31%, 62%) and 3.7% (95% CI: 0.1%, 19%), respectively, and the null DC rate of 15% was rejected (p<0.001). 9/13 pts with DC continued on treatment for >32 weeks. 14 pts had at least one grade 3-4 AE at least possibly related to P with the most common being low WBC/platelets. Other grade 3 AEs included increased alanine aminotransferase, anemia, and fatigue. Conclusions: Monotherapy P demonstrated anti-tumor activity in heavily pre-treated pts with STS with CDK4 amplification. Additional study is warranted to confirm the efficacy of P in pts with STS with CDK4 amplification. Clinical trial information: NCT02693535. [Table: see text]

5592 Background: Cytotoxic chemotherapy (CT) is the current standard treatment for metastatic/recurrent SCCHN. The prognosis for these patients (PTS) is poor with a median progression free survival (PFS) of 4 months with CT. Survival in PTS with SCCHN may correlate inversely with the number of angiogenic growth factors secreted. Sorafenib is a potent inhibitor of c-Raf, b-Raf, VEGFR-1/2/3 and PDGFR-β. To investigate the hypothesis that a multi-targeted TKI added to chemotherapy would improve outcomes in patients with metastatic/recurrent SCCHN, we performed a phase II trial of   paclitaxel and carboplatin and sorafenib (PCS). Methods: PTS were required to have ECOG PS 0-1, measurable disease, controlled blood pressure, and may have received one regimen of induction, concomitant or adjuvant CT, but not CT for recurrent/metastatic disease. Sites of primary disease excluded nasopharynx and paranasal sinus. Treatment consisted P 200mg/m2 and C AUC 6 intravenously on day 1 followed by S 400 mg orally bid (days 2-19) in every 3-week cycles.  Primary endpoint was PFS, targeting median PFS of 6 months (M). Secondary endpoints include overall survival (OS), response rate (RR), exploratory biomarkers, and toxicity. Results: Forty-eight PTS with SCCHN were enrolled with 44 PTS evaluable for PFS and response using RECIST. Median age: 56 years (22-79 years), 89% male, median ECOG PS 1.  Median follow-up was 24.1 M.  RR was 55% (n=24), disease control rate was 84% (n=37), median PFS was 8.51 M (95% CI: 5.98 ~ 13 months), and median OS was 22.6 M (95% CI: 13.1 - NA months). Grade ³3 treatment related toxicities included hand-foot syndrome (n=10), neutropenia (n=5), pain (n=6), elevated lipase (n=4), elevated amylase (n=3), anemia (n=3), fatigue (n=2), hypertension (n=2), neuropathy (n=2), febrile neutropenia (n=2), and thrombocytopenia (n=2).  Conclusions: The combination of PCS was well tolerated and had encouraging activity in recurrent/metastatic SCCHN. Blood-based and tissue biomarkers are being analyzed.  Final outcomes, toxicity, and correlative biomarker data will be reported.

8556 Background: The PI3k/AKT pathway is activated in most metastatic melanomas; mTOR is a critical component of this pathway. Everolimus, an mTOR inhibitor, has demonstrated single-agent activity in patients with advanced melanoma. We evaluated the efficacy and toxicity of everolimus in combination with paclitaxel/carboplatin in patients with advanced melanoma. Methods: Eligible patients had stage IV or unresectable stage III melanoma, unselected for braf status, previously untreated with chemotherapy or targeted agents. Previous immunotherapy was allowed. Additional eligibility criteria: ECOG PS 0 or 1; measurable disease; no active brain metastases; adequate bone marrow, kidney, and liver function; informed consent. All patients received paclitaxel 175mg/m2, 1-3 hour IV infusion, and carboplatin AUC 6.0 IV on day 1 of each 21-day cycle. Everolimus 5mg PO was given daily. Patients were evaluated for response every 6 weeks; treatment continued until progression or undue toxicity. Median progression-free survival (PFS) for paclitaxel/carboplatin treatment is 4 months; we looked for a median PFS of 6 months with this novel combination. Results: Seventy patients were treated between 2/2010 and 2/2011; median age 63, 90% had stage IV melanoma. 91% of patients received at least 2 cycles of therapy; median cycles received: 4 (range: 1-25+). Twelve patients (17%) had partial responses; an additional 42 patients (60%) had stable disease at first reevaluation. After a median 13 months of followup, the median PFS for the entire group was 4 months (95% CI: 2.8 – 5.0 months); 96% had progressed during the first 12 months. Median survival was 10 months (95% CI: 7.3 – 10.9 months). Toxicity was as previously described with these agents; neutropenia was the most common grade 3/4 toxicity (27%). Only 3 patients stopped treatment due to toxicity. Conclusions: The addition of everolimus to paclitaxel/carboplatin was feasible and well-tolerated; however, efficacy results were similar to those reported with paclitaxel/carboplatin alone. Further development of this combination regimen for treatment of metastatic melanoma is not recommended.

LBA4003 Background: CRT is one of the best treatment options for localized EC. As new combinations are required to improve safety and survival, we launched a randomized phase II study to assess the complete response (CR) rate of CRT with FOLFOX versus 5FU/cisplatin in 97 pts with localized EC (Conroy 2010). The trial having met its objectives, it has been pursued as a phase III trial. Stratified randomization was performed centrally in a 1:1 ratio according to histological type, pretreatment weight loss in the prior 6 months (<10% vs ≥10%), ECOG PS (0 vs 1 vs 2), and center. Methods: Pts with technically unresectable cancer or those with surgical contraindications or who refused to undergo surgery were eligible. Eligibility criteria also included age >18 years (y), PS ≤ 2, previously untreated adenocarcinoma or squamous cell EC (any T, N0 or N1, M0 or M1a). The radiation dose was 50 Gy (2Gy/fr) 5 d/wk for 5 wks in both arms. In Arm A, pts received 6 bimonthly cycles (cy): oxaliplatin 85 mg/m2 d1 and leucovorin 200 mg/m2 followed by 5-FU 400 mg/m2 bolus d1 then 1,600 mg/m2 46h continuous infusion (ci) ; the first 3 cy were delivered during RT, the 3 other after. In Arm B, pts received 4 cy: cisplatin 75 mg/m2 d1 followed by 5FU 1,000 mg/m2/d ci d1-4, the first 2 cy during RT and 2 other after. The primary endpoint was PFS. Main secondary endpoints were OS, grade 3-4 toxicities, and quality of life. A total of 266 pts would provide 90% power to detect a 20% 3y-PFS difference (α=0.05). Results: 267 pts were enrolled between 10/2004 and 08/2011. Treatment cohorts were well balanced: male 81%; median age 61 y; PS 0 53%, squamous cell 85.8%, stage III 52%, IVA 6.0% and IVB 3.0%. Full treatment was delivered to 67.9% and 72.2% of pts in arms A/B, respectively. 7 toxic deaths occurred in each arm. Grade 3/4 toxicities per pt (%) in arms A/B were neutropenia 30.6/31.3, febrile neutropenia 5.3/7.0, anemia 5.4/11.0, asthenia 17.6/10.2, respectively. The median FU time was 25.3 mos. 3y-PFS was 18.2/17.4 % (HR=1.07; 95%CI =0.80-1.43) and median OS was 20.2 /17.5 m (HR=1.06; 95%CI =0.77-1.46). Conclusions: CRT with FOLFOX does not improve PFS compared to cisplatin and 5-FU and has similar toxicities.

4008 Background: Adjuvant chemotherapy with gemcitabine (G) has been standard treatment for resected pancreatic cancer (PC). In the GEST study, S-1 (S) had shown non-inferiority to G in overall survival (OS) for unresectable PC. The aim of this phase III study is to investigate non-inferiority of S to G on OS as adjuvant chemotherapy for resected PC. Methods: Patients (pts) after macroscopically curative resection of PC with an ECOG PS of 0-1 and adequate organ functions were randomly assigned to G (1000 mg/m2, iv, d1, 8 and 15, q4w, for 6 courses) or S (80/100/120 mg/day based on BSA, po, d1-28, q6w, for 4 courses) with balancing by surgical margins (R), nodal status (N) and institution. Primary endpoint was OS. With 180 pts per arm, the study had 80% power to prove non-inferiority with a margin of hazard ratio (HR) 1.25 on the basis of expected HR 0.87, with 0.05 two-sided alpha. Secondary endpoints were relapse-free survival (RFS), safety, and quality of life (EQ-5D). One interim analysis was planned after 180 deaths. Results: From 4/2007 to 6/2010, 385 pts were enrolled from 33 hospitals in Japan. 378 pts (G/S: 191/187) were included in the full analysis set. Pts characteristics (G/S) were well balanced (PS0: 67%/70%, R0: 86%/88%, N0: 38%/36%). Based on the interim analysis with 205 OS events, IDMC recommended to publish the results. OS at 2-years were 53% for G and 70% for S. HR for S to G was 0.56 (95% CI, 0.42-0.74, p<0.0001 for non-inferiority, p<0.0001 for superiority). On subgroup analysis, HRs for R0/R1, N0/N1 pts were 0.57 (95% CI, 0.42-0.78)/0.53 (0.27-1.05), 0.48 (0.28-0.83)/0.58 (0.41-0.80), respectively. RFS at 2-years were 29% for G and 49% for S. HR of relapse for S to G was 0.56 (95% CI, 0.43-0.71, log-rank p<0.0001). Incidences of grade 3/4 toxicities in G/S were leukopenia 39%/9%, hemoglobin decrease 17%/13%, thrombocytopenia 9%/4%, elevated AST 5%/1%, fatigue 5%/5%, and anorexia 6%/8%. Relative dose intensity of G/S was 84%/97%. EQ-5D QOL score in S was significantly better than that in G (p<0.0001). Conclusions: S-1 adjuvant chemotherapy is shown non-inferior, and furthermore, even superior to GEM. S-1 is considered as the new standard treatment for resected PC pts.

9031 Background: Uveal melanoma (UM) is a rare cancer with a propensity for metastasis. There are no effective systemic therapies for metastatic UM, although dacarbazine is commonly used in practice. Sunitinib is a tyrosine kinase inhibitor with activity against several targets including c-Kit and VEGF receptors, both of which have been implicated in the pathogenesis of UM. Methods: In this randomized multicentre, phase II study (SUAVE), patients (pts) with metastatic UM, ECOG PS 0-2, and no prior systemic therapy for advanced disease, were randomized 1:1 to sunitinib (50mg daily for 28 days, followed by a 14 day break), or dacarbazine (1000 mg/m2once every 21 days). Crossover was permitted on progression. The primary endpoint was PFS; secondary endpoints included response rate and OS. A sample size of 124 was planned, with a power of 0.9 to detect an increase in 3 month PFS from 0.2 to 0.4 (HR: 0.563) and a one-sided alpha of 0.05. A preplanned futility analysis was performed after 50% of events, and recruitment stopped early, due to low conditional power (0.17% under current trend). Presentation of results was approved by DMC. Results: 74 pts from 12 centres were randomized over 24 months. Overall response rates of 0% and 8% were observed in the sunitinib and dacarbazine arms; while stable disease was observed in 24% of pts on sunitinib, and 11% on dacarbazine. PFS and OS were not improved with sunitinib (see Table). 11 pts in the sunitinib arm and 23 in the dacarbazine arm underwent crossover on progression. No unexpected AEs were observed, and no deaths due to toxicity occurred. Conclusions: In these preliminary results sunitinib did not have significant clinical activity in metastatic UM. This trial is one of the largest undertaken in metastatic UM and demonstrates that timely recruitment to collaborative multicentre randomized trials is achievable in this rare disease.

571 Background: Both SOX and cet are effective treatments each other in patients (pts) with mCRC. COIN trial indicated that the use of cet in combination with capacitabine and oxaliplatin should not be recommended. However, the safety and efficacy of cet plus SOX are not clear. To evaluate the safety and clinical efficacy of the combination, we conducted a multi-center phase I/II study. Methods: In this trial, we assigned pts with KRAS wild type (wt), EGFR-expressing tumor and no prior chemotherapy to receive cet (initial dose 400, and 250 mg/m2 weekly) followed by SOX (oxaliplatin on day 1 and S-1 40 mg/m2 twice daily on days 1-14). The treatment was repeated every 3 weeks. The phase I part was designed to determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and recommended dose (RD) according to the dose adaptation schedule of oxaliplatin (100 mg/m2 for level 1 and 130 mg/m2 for level 2). In the following phase II part, the enrolled pts were treated with the RD. The primary endpoint was response rate (RR) evaluated by the external review board according to RECIST criteria v1.1. Secondary endpoints included PFS, OS, and safety. In addition, we prospectively evaluated early tumor shrinkage (ETS). Results: A total of 67 pts were enrolled from January 2012 to February 2013. In the phase I part, level 2 was determined to be the RD. The MTD was not determined because dose limiting toxicity was not confirmed in level 2. In the phase II part, 59 pts including 6 pts of phase I cohort were assessable for the efficacy. The median age was 64 years, 51% of pts were male, and ECOG PS 0 was observed in 85% of pts. The median course of treatment was 5 (range 1-14). The RR was 62.7% (95%CI, 50.4 to 75.1) and ETS was observed in 72% of pts. In safety analysis, grade 3 or worse adverse events were platelet count decreased (13.1%), neutropenia (8.2%), anorexia (11.7%), rash acneform (6.7%) and peripheral neuropathy (3.3%). Conclusions: We determined the RD of cet plus SOX treatment in pts with mCRC. This combination is tolerable at full doses of cet and SOX, with manageable toxicities, and demonstrates advantages in RR for pts with KRAS wt tumor. Updated safety and efficacy data will be presented. Clinical trial information: UMIN000007022.

201 Background: TASQ is an oral immunomodulatory, antiangiogenic and antimetastatic agent that targets the tumor microenvironment. In a phase 2 trial in mCRPC, TASQ increased PFS in chemotherapy-naive pts vs placebo (PBO) (Pili et al. JCO 2011), but there was no OS benefit in a recent phase 3 trial (NCT01234311). This study assessed whether TASQ maintenance therapy improved disease control duration in mCRPC pts with response or stabilization on first-line docetaxel (NCT01732549). Methods: Pts with mCRPC not progressing after docetaxel (min. 6 cycles; RECIST criteria; no PSA rise for last 3 tests) were assigned (1:1) to receive within 6 wks of last docetaxel administration: oral TASQ qd (0.25 mg/d rising to 1.0 mg/d over 4 wks, if tolerated) or PBO, until progression or toxicity. Randomization was stratified by visceral metastases and opioid analgesic use. Primary endpoint: radiographic PFS (rPFS) per RECIST 1.1 and PCWG 2 criteria, assessed locally. Planned sample size: 140 pts to achieve 80% power to detect an rPFS hazard ratio (HR) of 0.588 with a 1-sided α error of 0.05. Secondary endpoints: other clinical outcome measures, OS and safety. Results: From Jan 2013 to Oct 2014, 144 pts were randomized (TASQ: n = 71; PBO: n = 73) at 44 sites in 11 countries. Baseline characteristics were similar in both groups – median age: 70 yrs; visceral metastases: 23%; ECOG PS 0–1: 97%; opioid use: 15%. Median follow up: 59 wks for TASQ; 53 wks for PBO. Median rPFS (locally assessed) was 31.7 wks [90% CI 24.3–53.7] with TASQ; 22.7 wks [90% CI 16.1–25.9] with PBO (HR 0.6 [90% CI 0.4–0.9]; p = 0.0162). OS data are immature (14 deaths). Median time to next anticancer therapy: 42.3 wks [90% CI 32.0–58.0] for TASQ; 29.0 wks [90% CI 23.1–39.1] for PBO (HR 0.7 [90% CI 0.5–1.0]). TEAEs ( ≥ Grade 3): TASQ (51%); PBO (26%). TEAEs with TASQ (all grades; > 20%): decreased appetite (37%), constipation (32%), fatigue (28%), nausea (27%), arthralgia (25%), asthenia (24%) and back pain (21%). Conclusions: We believe this is the first completed trial of a maintenance strategy with a novel agent in mCRPC, an appealing concept in pts not progressing after docetaxel therapy. Clinical trial information: NCT01732549.

9074 Background: BRAFV600 mutations occur in 1–2% of pts with NSCLC. We previously reported the efficacy of vemurafenib, a selective BRAFV600 inhibitor, in BRAF mutation-positive non-melanoma tumors (VE-BASKET study). We now present final data for the expanded NSCLC cohort. Methods: This open-label, histology-independent, phase 2 study included 6 prespecified cohorts (including NSCLC) plus one ‘all-others’ cohort. Pts received vemurafenib (960 mg bid) until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. The primary endpoint was objective response rate (RECIST v1.1). Secondary endpoints included best overall response rate, duration of response (DoR), progression-free survival (PFS), and overall survival (OS). Because the pre-specified clinical benefit endpoint was met in the initial NSCLC cohort, the cohort was expanded. ClinicalTrials.gov identifier NCT01524978. Results: Database lock was 12 Jan 2017. Of 208 pts enrolled at 25 centers worldwide, 62 pts had NSCLC: median age 65 years; 56% male; 13% had no prior systemic therapy; 50% had ≥2 prior therapies. Responses were seen in previously treated and untreated pts (Table). The most common all-grade adverse event (AE) was nausea (40%); grade 3–5 AEs included keratoacanthoma (15%) and squamous cell carcinoma of the skin (15%). Six pts discontinued vemurafenib due to AEs; two had non-treatment-related fatal AEs. Conclusions: Vemurafenib showed evidence of encouraging efficacy in pts with NSCLC with BRAFV600 mutation, with prolonged PFS in previously untreated pts; median OS was not estimable due to ongoing responses. The safety profile of vemurafenib was similar to that seen in melanoma studies. Our results suggest a role for BRAF inhibition in NSCLC with BRAF mutations. Clinical trial information: NCT01524978.

102 Background: Angiogenesis and immunosuppression are hallmarks of tumor growth. This is the first study to combine R (anti-VEGFR2) with P (anti-PD-1) to simultaneously target both processes in the tumor microenvironment. Methods: This ongoing, multi-cohort, phase 1a/b trial (NCT02443324) enrolled pts with confirmed G/GEJ adenocarcinoma with prior progression on systemic therapy, measurable disease, ECOG PS 0-1, and baseline tumor tissue. PD-L1 was classified as positive (≥1%) or negative using the DAKO PD-L1 22C3 IHC pharmDx assay. Two dosing regimens were evaluated, Cohort A (R 8 mg/kg on Days 1&8) and Cohort B (R 10 mg/kg on Day 1), given with P 200 mg on Day 1 q3W. The primary objective was to assess safety and tolerability of adding R to P; preliminary efficacy will be examined. Results: As of 23-Jun-2016, 40 G/GEJ pts have been enrolled (Cohort A: n=23; Cohort B: n=17). First pt treated in Cohorts A and B were on 29-Feb-2016 and 26-Oct-2015, respectively. The median age was 59 y, 75% were male, 65% had ECOG PS of 1, 48% were PD-L1 positive, and 70% received study treatment as third or subsequent regimen. Median duration of treatment was 2.1 mo and 4.1 mo for Cohort A and B, respectively. All grades treatment-related AEs (TRAE) occurred in 31 (78%) pts and similar between cohorts; TRAEs in ≥10% of pts were fatigue (30%), infusion related reaction (12.5%), decreased appetite (12.5%), pruritus (10%), maculopapular rash (10%), and hypertension (10%). Ten (25%) pts had grade 3-4 TRAEs, most commonly colitis (7.5%) and hypertension (7.5%). One treatment-related death occurred (pneumocystis pneumonia and pulmonary sepsis). Preliminary efficacy data showed 3 of 40 (7.5%) pts (PD-L1 negative, n=1; PD-L1 positive, n=2) have responded (1 confirmed and 2 unconfirmed PR) to treatment with a 45% disease control rate. Median PFS was 2.10 mo (95% CI, 1.18 to 4.04) and 2.60 mo (1.38, NR) for Cohorts A and B, respectively. Fifteen (37.5%) pts, including all responders, remain on treatment. Conclusions: R+P generated no new safety signals and demonstrated antitumor activity in pts with previously treated advanced G/GEJ adenocarcinoma. Clinical trial information: NCT02443324.
