75 Background: Anlotinib is an oral small molecule multi-target tyrosine kinase inhibitor that is designed to primarily inhibit VEGFR1/2/3, FGFR1-4, PDGFR α/β and c-Kit, with a broad spectrum of inhibitory effects on tumor angiogenesis and growth. In a previous trial, Anlotinib had been demonstrated to be safe and efficacious in advanced colorectal cancer after failure of recommended treatment. We aimed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Anlotinib combined with CAPEOX as first-line treatment for unresectable RAS and BRAF wild-type metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC). Methods: ALTER-C-002 is a single-arm phase II clinical trial. A total of 30 patients with RAS/BRAF wild-type unresectable mCRC, aged 18-75, without prior systemic treatment and ECOG performance score ≤ 1 will be prospectively included. Patients received Capecitabine (850 mg/m2, p.o., on day 1-14 every 3 weeks), Oxaliplatin (130 mg/m2, i.v., every 3 weeks) and Anlotinib (12 mg, p.o., 2 weeks on/1 week off). After 6 cycles of inducing therapy, patients will receive Capecitabine and Anlotinib as maintenance therapy until tumor progression. Primary endpoint was objective response rate (ORR); secondary endpoints included safety, disease control rate (DCR) and progression-free survival (PFS). Results: As of Sep.15th, 2020, 19 patients had been enrolled. 12 of 19 patients were evaluable for antitumor activity: 10 patients had partial response, 2 patients had stable disease. The ORR was 83.3% (95% CI: 51.6–97.9%), and DCR was 100% (95% CI: 73.5–108.1%). 9 patients (47.4%) developed grade Ⅲ adverse events with 1 (5.3%) grade Ⅳ AE. The grade Ⅲ AEs included hypertension (n = 8), diarrhea (n = 3), hypertriglyceridemia (n = 2), leukopenia and neutropenia (n = 3), alanine aminotransferase increase (n = 1), intestinal obstruction (n = 1), nausea and vomiting (n = 1), and grade Ⅳ AE was blood bilirubin increase. 1 patient received emergent surgery for relieving intestinal obstruction after 14 days of Anlotinib treatment discontinuation. No extra bleeding or wound healing risk were observed during the perioperative period. No treatment-related deaths occurred. Conclusions: The combination of Anlotinib and CAPEOX displayed promising antitumor activity and manageable toxicity in unresectable RAS and BRAF wild-type mCRC, which should be merited further evaluation in randomized studies. Clinical trial information: NCT04080843.

86 Background: Triplet regimens, FOLFOXIRI, combined with bevacizumab (bev) or panitumumab have been shown to be superior in terms of early tumor shrinkage (ETS) and depth of response (DpR) compared to doublet regimen plus bev or triplet regimen in patients with RAS wild-type metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC), in the TRIBE trial ( N Engl J Med 2014) or VOLFI trial ( J Clin Oncol 2019), respectively. There have been few studies which directly compared cetuximab (cet) with bev when combined with triplet regimen. Therefore, we investigated the efficacy and safety of bev vs. cet in combination with FOLFOXIRI in previously untreated mCRC patients with RAS wild-type tumors. Methods: This trial was a randomized phase II trial to evaluate modified (m)-FOLFOXIRI (irinotecan 150 mg/m2, oxaliplatin 85 mg/m2, 5-FU 2400 mg/m2) plus cet vs. bev as first-line treatment in terms of the DpR during the entire course as the primary endpoint in 360 patients with RAS wild-type mCRC (ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT02515734). The experimental arm with cet was considered to be active if the difference of median DpR was over 12.5% compared with the bev arm, under the conditions of significance level of 0.05 and power of 0.85. Secondary endpoints included the ETS at week 8, progression-free survival, overall survival, secondary resection rate, and toxicity. Results: A total of 359 patients were enrolled between July 2015 and June 2019. For the safety analysis set (median age 65y, 64% male, PS0/1:91%/9%, left/right primary:83%/17%), 173 and 175 patients were randomly assigned to the cet and bev arms, respectively, some patients were excluded for the safety analysis due to the violation of inclusion criteria (6 for cet arm and 5 for bev). On the cutoff date of September 2020, median number of cycles administered was 10 (range, 1-51) for the cet arm and 12 (range, 1-51) for the bev arm. The incidence of severe adverse events (AEs) was 25.4% (44/173) for the cet arm and 25.7% (45/175) for the bev arm, respectively. The following AEs of grade 3-4 were observed more frequently in the cet arm compared to the bev arm: oral mucositis (9.2% vs. 2.3%), diarrhea (12.1% vs. 8.0%), dermatitis acneiform (12.1% vs. 0%), and hypomagnesemia (4.0% vs. 0%). The treatment-related death occurred in 2 patients of the cet arm, while no patients in the bev arm. The rate of treatment discontinuation due to AEs of any cause was comparable between the cet and bev arms (7% vs. 9%). Conclusions: This safety analysis indicated that both regimens of m-FOLFOXIRI plus cet or bev were tolerable in RAS wt mCRC patients although some frequent severe AEs were observed.

e15053 Background:The role of combination chemotherapy plus anti-EGFR treatment in older patients with metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC) is unclear. We conducted an open label phase II trial in order to evaluate the safety and efficacy of modified FOLFIRI plus panitumumab as first-line treatment in elderly patients with RAS wild-type mCRC. Methods: Patients ≥70 years old with unresectable all-RAS wild-type mCRC were treated with Panitumumab 6mg/kg as 60min iv infusion followed by Irinotecan 130mg/m2 as 90min iv infusion, Leucovorin 400mg/m2 as 2h iv infusion and 5-Fluorouracil 400mg/m2 as bolus iv infusion on day 1 and 5-Fluorouracil 1.200 mg/m2 as continuous iv infusion for 46h, every 2 weeks. Sample size calculation was based on the minimax Simon two-step design: The null hypothesis was that the overall response rate (ORR) is ≤ 30% versus the alternative hypothesis of ORR ≥ 50% (α = 0.05, power 80%). Results: Forty-six patients were enrolled in the study. Two patients did not receive treatment because they were RAS mutant. Median age for the 44 treated patients was 76 years (range 70-88). Males were 32 and the PS was 0, 1 and 2 in 25%, 70.5% and 4.5% of patients, respectively. Rectal cancer accounted for 25% while 15.9% of patients had the primary tumour in situ. Twenty-one partial responses were observed for an ORR of 47.7% (95%CI: 32.9%-62.5%) while seven patients (15.9%) had stable disease. After a median follow-up of 36.0 months, the median progression-free survival was 6.1 months (95%CI: 3.6-8.7) and the median overall survival was 20.9 months (95%CI: 11.7-30.1). Grade 3-4 neutropenia was recorded in 4 (9%) and grade 3-4 diarrhea in 9 (20.4%) patients while one patient had a grade 4 bowel perforation. One patient experienced grade 3 mucositis, two patients grade 3 skin toxicity and two patients grade 3 fatigue. There were no toxic deaths while one patient died due to bowel obstruction and one due to postoperative complications after removal of the primary tumor. Conclusions: The modified FOLFIRI plus panitumumab combination presented significant efficacy with manageable toxicity in elderly patients with mCRC.
