TPS9588 Background: Despite successful treatment of primary uveal melanomas (UM), up to 50% of patients subsequently develop systemic metastasis, with the liver involved in up to 90% of patients. Currently there is no US FDA-approved treatment for metastatic uveal melanoma (MUM). Activating mutations in genes encoding alpha subunits of the heterotrimeric G proteins, GNAQ and GNA11, are found in 80-90% of UM. Recent information suggests that GNAQ/GNA11-oncogenic signaling involves a non-canonical pathway conferring the activation of YAP1, distinct from the activation of PLCβ and PKC-MEK-ERK, which may explain the failure of MEK inhibitors in MUM patients. Focal Adhesion Kinase (FAK) is a tyrosine kinase that provides a direct link between Gαq and tyrosine phosphorylation networks controlling YAP and UM growth. Interestingly, UM represents the human cancer harboring the highest level of FAK overexpression. Recent kinome-wide CRISPR-Cas9 screens revealed that FAK and RAF/MEK co-targeting may provide a new network-based precision therapeutic strategy for MUM treatment. Methods: This is an investigator-initiated, prospective, single arm, single-institution, phase II trial evaluating the combination of a FAK inhibitor (defactinib, VS-6063) with a RAF/MEK inhibitor (VS-6766, CH5126766) for the treatment of patients with metastatic uveal melanoma [NCT04720417]. The primary endpoint of the study is disease control rate (DCR) of 50% including complete response (CR), partial response (PR), and stable disease (SD) as determined by RECIST criteria version 1.1. Secondary endpoints include progression free survival, overall survival, and causality of adverse events. Exploratory endpoints include analysis of the pharmacodynamic profile, mechanism of resistance to the combination, and investigation of circulating free DNA as a biomarker. The efficacy of this combination treatment will be assessed using the Simon’s two stage design. In stage I, a total number of 8 patients are accrued and if there are 2 or fewer overall responses among these 8 patients, further enrollment of patients may be stopped with the conclusion that DCR cannot be 50% or greater. Otherwise, an additional 10 patients will be accrued in stage II, resulting in a total sample size of 18 patients. Patients at 18 years or older with metastases from uveal melanoma will be eligible (any line of therapy). Defactinib (200 mg) will be administered orally twice a day in combination with VS-6766 (3.2 mg) administered orally twice a week for 3 weeks, in 28-day cycles. Dose modification will be considered based on toxicity. Treatment will be continued until maximum clinical benefit is obtained; disease progression or the development of intolerable side effects. Enrollment to stage 1 began in February 2021. Clinical trial information: NCT04720417.

293 Background: We conducted a phase II trial to evaluate combination therapy with intravesical BCG + sunitinib for prevention of recurrence and progression of NMIBC. Methods: Patients with high-grade clinical ≤ T1N0M0 NMIBC without BCG in the past year were eligible and received induction BCG followed 2 weeks later by 28 days of sunitinib (50mg). The primary endpoint was 3 month complete response (CR) by biopsy and cytology. Patients with incomplete response were eligible for a second cycle of BCG + sunitinib. Secondary endpoints included 2-year recurrence and progression-free survival (RFS, PFS). Toxicity was graded according to the NCI CTCAE v.3.0. The Simon Minimax 2-stage study had 80% power with a 5% type I error assuming a 3m CR of 75% with sunitinib + BCG compared to 55% with BCG alone. If ≥ 25/36 evaluable patients achieved a 3m CR, then the treatment would be considered for further study. Binomial proportions, confidence intervals and Kaplan-Meier estimates are reported. Results: Of 36 evaluable patients, median age was 65.9 years (IQR 59-72). Initial stage was T1 (19), Ta (9), and CIS (8). Thirty-six percent completed sunitinib without interruption. Treatment was delayed (median 12 days (IQR 9-16)) and dose was reduced to 37.5 mg in 13 patients. One patient had reduction to 25mg with re-escalation to 37.5mg. One patient completed a 2nd cycle of BCG + sunitinib for incomplete response. BCG maintenance therapy was given to 21 patients. Of 133 adverse events in 34/36 patients, 6 (4.5%) in 5 patients were ≥ grade 3: thrombocytopenia, diarrhea (2), shingles, extremity rash/pain and hand + foot syndrome. CR at 3m included 26/36 (72%, 95% CI[55,86]) reaching the primary endpoint. The patient who completed a 2nd cycle of BCG induction and sunitinib had CR at 6 months. 2y RFS (patients with intact bladder) was 77% (95% CI[58,88]) and 2y PFS was 100%. Conclusions: The primary endpoint of the study of 25 3m CR has been reached. Combined treatment with BCG + sunitinib is associated with low rates of recurrence and progression. Adverse effects were common and frequent but few were serious. BCG + sunitinib may produce outcomes superior to BCG alone. (Study supported by Pfizer, Inc) Clinical trial information: NCT00794950.

765 Background: In a randomized phase II trial of mCRC patients who have failed at least 2 lines of standard therapy, fruquintinib has demonstrated superior progression free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) benefits over placebo. We further assessed the between-treatment difference of quality of life (QoL) using a Q-TWiST analysis, to elucidate the trade-off between adverse events and treatment benefits. Methods: Mean PFS and OS were estimated using the Kaplan-Meier method. OS in Q-TWiST analysis was partitioned into 3 health states: TOX (time with toxicity before progression), TWiST (time without symptoms or toxicity) and REL (time from progression until death). The algorism of Q-TWiST is the sum of the mean durations for the 3 health states, with each state weighted by its respective utility coefficient. The 95% confidence intervals of mean are calculated with z method and the standard error is generated by bootstrap method. The relative Q-TWiST gains of > = 10% and > = 15% are considered as a clinically important and clearly clinically important, respectively (Revicki, 2006). Results: A total of 71 patients were included in this post-hoc analysis. The 47 patients of fruquintinib arm had significant longer PFS, compared with the 24 patients in the placebo arm (mean: 5.0 vs. 2.2 months, difference [95% CI]: 2.8 [1.4, 4.3]). The benefit of OS was numerically superior (mean: 8.6 vs. 6.9 months, difference [95% CI]: 1.7 [-0.5, 4.0]). Patients treated with fruquintinib showed numerically longer overall Q-TWiST (mean: 5.8 vs. 4.4 months, difference [95% CI]: 1.4 [-0.1, 2.9] than those received placebo with the relative gain of 20.3% over OS, assuming the utility during TOX/REL period is 0.5 and that during the TWiST is 1.0. Sensitivity analysis demonstrated that the Q-TWiST gain may range from -0.7% to 41.2% at various utility assignments. Conclusions: In this phase II trial, mCRC patients treated with fruquintinib had clearly clinically important QoL benefit. Further studies with larger sample size are needed to confirm this finding.

93 Background: Oligorecurrent pelvic nodal relapse of prostatic cancer is a challenge for regional salvage treatments. We conducted OLIGOPELVIS – GETUG P07, a phase II trial of combined salvage radiotherapy and hormone therapy in oligorecurrent pelvic node relapses of prostate cancer (NCT02274779). Methods: OLIGOPELVIS–GETUG P07 was a prospective multi-center phase II trial investigating high-dose salvage pelvic irradiation with an additional dose to the fluorocholine-based positron-emission-tomography (FCH- PET)-positive pelvic lymph nodes (PLN), combined with six-month androgen blockade (LH-RH agonist or antagonist injections). The prescribed dose was 54 Gy in 1.8 Gy fractions with up to 66 Gy in 2.2 Gy fractions to the pathological PLN. Toxicity (CTCAE v4) and complete response rates (PSA < 0.20 ng/ml) were analyzed. The main objective was to assess biochemical-clinical failure defined by a cluster of events including PSA progression (≥25 % and ≥ 2 ng/ml above the nadir) or clinical evidence of local or metastatic progression or post- treatment initiation of hormonal therapy or prostate cancer-related death. We hypothesized that salvage treatment would achieve a 2-year relapse-free survival of 70 %. Results: Seventy-four patients were recruited in fifteen French radiation oncology departments between August 2014 and July 2016. Seven were excluded before treatment because of violation of the inclusion criteria. The intention-to-treat analysis therefore included sixty-seven patients. Half of them had received prior prostatic/prostate bed irradiation. Median age was 67.7. Grade 2+ two-year urinary and intestinal toxicity were 10% and 2% respectively. At 2 and 3 years, 73.1 and 45.9% of patients achieved a persisting complete response respectively. After a median follow-up of 34 months, the 2-year progression-free survival rate was 77.6%. Median progression-free survival was 40.1 months. Conclusions: Combined pelvic salvage radiotherapy and hormone therapy allowed for prolonged tumor control in oligorecurrent pelvic node relapses of prostate cancer with limited toxicity. Clinical trial information: NCT02274779.

41 Background: Sorafenib is a tyrosine kinase inhibitor targeting VEGFr, PDGFr, Raf and other pathways. Encouraging response and survival were observed in a phase II trial combining sorafenib with chemotherapy in GE cancer (J Clin Oncol 27:2947;2010). We are studying single agent sorafenib in a phase II trial with the primary endpoint to assess progression free survival (PFS). Secondary endpoints include response and therapy tolerance. Methods: Patients (pts) with measurable metastatic E and GEJ cancer with no more than 3 prior chemotherapy regimens were treated with sorafenib 400 mg BID. CT scans were performed monthly for the first 2 months, then every 2 months. Results: Sixteen of 35 pts have been accrued and 14 are currently evaluable. 13 male, 3 female, median KPS 80%, age 58, GEJ 7, E 9, squamous 2, adenocarcinoma (AC)14. An ongoing complete response (11+ months) was observed in a pt with biopsy proven metastatic neck lymphadenopathy (E primary AC, recurrence after prior chemoradiotherapy and surgery). A second pt (GEJ AC) had protracted stable disease in bulky celiac node disease (15+ months). Grade 3 toxicity was limited to skin rash (1 pt), hand foot reaction (1 pt), and fatigue (1 pt). Only 3 of 14 pts (21%) had early disease progression at 2 months or less. Median PFS 4 mos, 4 patients (29%) continue on therapy for more than 7 months. The majority of tumors tested positive for phospho-erk by immunohistochemistry (11/14, 79%). Conclusions: The observation of a durable complete response and protracted stable disease to sorafenib in E cancer is remarkable. Further accrual continues to define PFS.

5521 Background: PARP inhibitors (PARPi) are approved therapies in high grade serous ovarian cancer (HGSOC). There are few studies after PARPi progression and correlation with dynamic changes in resistance. We hypothesized that PARPi resistance could be overcome by adding an anti-angiogenic. Methods: We report the first phase 2 trial assessing the combination of olaparib and cediranib after PARPi failure in HGSOC. This investigator initiated study included three cohorts of 10 evaluable patients (pts): i) platinum sensitive post PARPi (PS), ii) platinum resistant post PARPi (PR) and iii) exploratory cohort of pts re-challenged with chemotherapy post PARPi progression (PE) (NCT02681237). The primary objective was to determine objective response rate by RECIST v1.1 and progression free survival (PFS) at 16 weeks. Secondary objectives were to evaluate safety, PFS, overall survival (OS) and mechanisms of PARPi resistance. Pts who had radiographic progression on any PARPi were eligible. Archival tumor at initial diagnosis and baseline tumor biopsy at PARPi progression were mandatory. Pts received olaparib tablets 150mg BID with cediranib 20mg QD until progression or unacceptable toxicity. CT scans were performed every 8 weeks. Whole exome and RNA sequencing were performed on paired tumors tissues. Results: Thirty-four pts were enrolled. BRCA1/2 mutations were found in 9/11 PS, 8/10 PR and 7/13 PE pts. By RECIST1.1, four partial responses were observed (2 in PR and 2 in PE cohorts) and 18 stable disease. The 16−week PFS was 54.5% (31.8−93.6) in PS, 50% (26.9−92.9) in PR and 36% (15.6−82.8) in PE, respectively. OS at 1 year was 81.8% (61.9−100) in PS, 64.8% (39.3−100) in PR and 39.1% (14.7−100) in PE. Main related adverse events were anemia, hypertension, diarrhea and fatigue, grade 3 < 10%. Molecular analyses identified different mechanisms of PARPi resistance in ~77% of evaluable pts with matched pre-post PARPi progression biopsies such as reversion mutations in BRCA1/2 and other homologous repair (HR) genes; BRCA, HR and MDR upregulation, CCNE amplification and RIG-I like receptor downregulation. Conclusions: Treatment with olaparib-cediranib after PARPi failure was feasible and met the predefined bar for efficacy in each cohort. This is the largest clinical trial prospectively evaluating PARPi failure and correlating tissue genomic mechanisms of resistance. Clinical trial information: NCT02681237.

Abstract Abstract 5031 Mapatumumab, a fully human monoclonal antibody, targets and activates the TRAIL-R1 receptor. We conducted this randomized, controlled phase II trial to evaluate the efficacy and safety of mapatumumab in combination with bortezomib in subjects with relapsed/refractory MM. Response was evaluated using the Bladé criteria. Patients were required to have a measurable serum and/or urine M-protein and have failed 1 or 2 prior therapies for MM. Patients were excluded if they had received prior bortezomib. Patients were randomly assigned to Arm A, 1.3 mg/m2 bortezomib (days 1, 4, 8, 11) every 21 days; Arm B10, bortezomib + 10 mg/kg mapatumumab (day 1) every 21 days; or Arm B20, bortezomib + 20 mg/kg mapatumumab (day 1) every 21 days. Cycles were repeated every 21 days for a maximum of 17 cycles (1 year), progressive disease or unacceptable toxicity. Subjects with complete response (CR) were treated for an additional 2 cycles after documentation of CR (not to exceed 17) and then followed. A total of 104 subjects from 4 countries were randomly assigned to the treatment arms. The addition of mapatumumab to bortezomib did not increase the response rate, progression-free survival (PFS) or duration of response compared to bortezomib alone. Adverse events were generally balanced across treatment groups; there was no evidence that mapatumumab exacerbated toxicities associated with bortezomib. As expected, the most common toxicities were hematological and peripheral neuropathies. The results do not support further evaluation of mapatumumab in combination with bortezomib in patients with advanced MM. Additional trials of mapatumumab in other indications are on-going.

Abstract Background Advanced-stage, relapsed indolent non follicular lymphomas (INFLs) have a relatively poor prognosis, with low complete response to conventional chemotherapy and short survival. Thus, there is a need for innovative treatment with high efficacy and a good safety profile. Lenalidomide (R®) is an immunomodulatory drug with a direct tumoricidal effect and action on T, NK and stromal cells that may enhance antibody-dependent cell mediated cytotoxicity as well as the development of specific anti-tumor immune responses. These immunologic effects may synergize with the action of rituximab (R). To test the efficacy of R® combined with R (R2), we have conducted a multi center, open label phase II clinical trial in patients (pts) with relapsed INFL. Methods Eligible pts must have indolent non follicular B-cell lymphoma relapsed after at least 2 but less than 4 prior lines of R-containing immuno-chemotherapy with measurable disease. Patients received oral R® 20 mg once daily on days 1-21. R is administered at a dose of 375 mg/m2 at day 14 of every course. Treatment is repeated every 28 days for up to 6 courses. The primary objectives of the study were to evaluate the antitumor activity of oral R® when given in combination with R and to assess the safety of R2 regimen evaluated by standard criteria (CTC-NCI 3.0). The secondary objectives were the evaluation of progression free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS). Results From July 2010 and March 2013, 44 pts entered the protocol. Six out of 44 pts were excluded from this analysis as 2 withdrew informed consent and 4 refused to start treatment immediately after signing the informed consent. Enrolled pts (38 cases) had: 18 small lymphocytic lymphoma (SLL), 12 lymphoplasmacytic lymphoma (LPL) and 8 marginal zone lymphoma (MZL). Median age was 68 years (51-75) and 58% were male. LDH value was increased in 21% of pts and β-2-microglobulin in 75%; 51% of pts had Hb<12 g/dL and 66% had bone marrow involved (median infiltrating 40%). Of the 38 pts, 7 achieved a complete remission and 14 a partial remission with an ORR of 55%. Seven pts had a stable disease and 5 a lymphoma progression. In general, the regimen R2 was relatively well-tolerated. Grade 3-4 hematological events were observed in 22 pts. The most common adverse events were neutropenia (58%), thrombocytopenia (11%), anemia (10%) and infection (10%). Grade 3-4 non hematological events were fever (5%), dyspnea (3%), allergic reaction to R (3%), renal failure (3%) and erythema (3%). Growth factors were administered in 58% of pts. The median dose intensity was 0.94 for R and 0.98 for R®. With a median follow-up of 19 months (range 1-43), overall 6 pts died, 5 for lymphoma progression and 1 for treatment related toxicity. The 2-years OS and the 2-years PFS were shown in Figure 1. Figure 2 shows the PFS by histology. The percentage of 2-years PFS (71%) for MZL appear impressive. Conclusions The chemo-free R2 scheme as treatment for relapse INFLs produces response in about 50% of pts and remission appear durable in pts with MZL. The toxicity profile of the combination is tolerable with manageable hematologic side effects. These results support the design of clinical trial with this chemo-free combination as first line treatment for INFLs, in particular for MZL.

4513 Background: Although neoadjuvant combined modality therapy (NACMTX) has become a standard of care in the United States, median overall survival (OS) for patients (PTS) with EA has changed little over the past 25 years. Progression free survival (PFS) and OS after NACMTX depend on extent of primary tumor response. New regimens to increase pathologic complete response (pCR) are needed. Based on phase I data, SWOG designed a phase II trial (S0356) to test OXP with PI5FU and EBRT for PTS with EA. Objectives included pCR rate ≥ 25%, acceptable toxicity (TOX), PFS, OS and exploration of molecular parameters relevant to pCR. Methods: Eligibility: clinical stage II/III EA, ≥ 18 years, Zubrod PS ≤ 2, standard hematologic/non-hematologic values, and tumor < 2 cm into the gastric cardia. OXP 85 mg/m2 was given day (d) 1, 15 and 29; PI5FU 180 mg/m2/d was given d 8-d43. EBRT 180 cGy/d started d 8 x 25 fractions, 5 d/week to total dose 4500 cGy. S was planned 2–4 weeks after NACMTX, with a second cycle of OXP/ PI5FU after S. Central pathology review of surgical specimens was mandated. The trial used a 2-stage design; the trial was halted at 45 PTS to review pCR rate; it reopened to full accrual. Results: 98 PTS enrolled between 9/15/04 and 8/18/08. 6 PTS were ineligible; 2 PTS did not receive therapy (TX). 90 PTS, 84 men (93%), median age 61.7 years, were analyzed. 4 deaths (4.5%) were due to protocol TX; 2 due to NACMTX, 2 to S. 43% and 18% of PTS had grade 3/4 toxicity, respectively: 39% GI, 22% flu-like/fatigue, 17% pulmonary, 16% hematologic, 14% mucositis and 3% neurologic. 77 PTS (86%) underwent S. 30 PTS (33%) had pCR. 9 PTS (10%) had in-situ cancer or T1N0M0. <50% received postoperative CTX. Conclusions: OXP, PI5FU and EBRT for PTS with EA has produced the highest pCR rate reported to date for a cooperative group trial. Significant but manageable non-hematologic TOX was observed. S mortality is acceptable. Future trials built on this platform should plan to complete all TX before S. Tumor molecular profiles (analyses in progress) may predict benefit from this treatment. Data on PFS and OS will follow. [Table: see text]

LBA7501 Background: Mapatumumab, a fully human agonist monoclonal antibody, targets and activates the death receptor TRAIL-R1. We conducted this randomized, controlled phase II trial to evaluate mapatumumab in combination with carboplatin and paclitaxel as first-line therapy in advanced non-small call lung cancer (NSCLC). Methods: Patients were required to have histologically or cytologically confirmed Stage IIIB or IV advanced primary NSCLC with measurable disease by RECIST. Patients were randomly assigned to Arm A, paclitaxel 200 mg/m2 + carboplatin AUC 6.0 (PC); Arm B, PC + mapatumumab 10 mg/kg; or Arm C, PC + mapatumumab 30 mg/kg. Cycles were repeated every 21 days; patients completed up to 6 cycles in the absence of evidence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Patients in Arms B and C could receive additional cycles of mapatumumab in the absence of disease progression. The co-primary endpoints were response rate (RR; complete response + partial response) and progression-free survival (PFS). Images were read by independent radiologists blinded to treatment group assignment, as well as locally. Results: 111 patients were enrolled at 22 sites in 4 countries. Addition of mapatumumab to PC did not improve RR or PFS. RR and PFS, based on the independent read, and overall survival results are summarized below. The results based on local reading also showed no benefit from the addition of mapatumumab to PC. Adverse events were generally balanced across treatment groups; there was no evidence that mapatumumab exacerbated toxicities associated with PC. Conclusions: The results do not support further evaluation of mapatumumab in combination with PC in patients with advanced NSCLC. Additional trials of mapatumumab in other indications are ongoing.

91 Background: Sorafenib is a tyrosine kinase inhibitor targeting VEGFr, PDGFr, Raf and other pathways. Encouraging response and survival were observed in a phase II trial of sorafenib with chemotherapy in GE cancer (J Clin Oncol 27:2947;2010). We performed a phase II trial of single-agent sorafenib with the primary endpoint of progression-free survival (PFS). Secondary endpoints include response and toxicity. Methods: Patients (Pts) with measurable metastatic E and GEJ cancer with ≤3 prior chemotherapy regimens were treated with sorafenib 400 mg BID. CT scans were performed monthly for the first 2 months, then every 2 months. Results: Thirty-five patients have been accrued, with 34 evaluable; median age 62, 31 male, 4 female, median KPS 80%, E 25, GEJ 10, adenocarcinoma (AC) 30 squamous 5, median no. of prior therapies 2. Of 31 response-evaluable Pts, 1 (3%) ongoing complete response was noted (34+ months) in a Pt with E AC with biopsy-proven lymph node recurrence after chemoradiation and surgery; 23 Pts (74%) had stable disease. Median PFS is 3.7 months (95% CI 1.9 to 4 months), with median overall survival 8.9 months (95% CI 6.9 to 11.6 months). Four patients remain on treatment. Significant grade 3 toxicities included hand foot reaction (3 Pts), rash (1 Pt), dehydration (3 Pts) and fatigue (2 Pts). Twenty-seven of 33 tumors (82%) tested positive for phospho-ERK by immunohistochemistry. Conclusions: Encouraging activity in terms of PFS has been noted in this heavily pre-treated population. Updated data will be presented. Supported by a grant from Bayer. Clinical trial information: NCT00917462.
