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]

6061 Background: Platinum-based chemotherapy in association to cetuximab is the standart first-line treatment for metastatic HNSCC. There is no established biomarker for cetuximab efficacy in HNSCC. We have previously shown that PTEN loss of expression is a bad prognostic factor for patients treated with platinum-based chemotherapy and cetuximab. The aim of the present study was evaluate the prognostic impact of PTEN loss of expression in patients treated with or without cetuximab and to evaluate its predictive value to cetuximab benefit. Methods: One hundred and nineteen patients with metastatic or locally recurrent HNSCC were included. Clinical data on treatment and outcomes was retroespectively colected from medical charts. Tissue micro-array was constructed to evaluate PTEN protein expression through immunohistochemistry. Citoplasmatic staining was evaluated using H-score. Tumors with H-score < 10 were considered to present PTEN loss of expression. Results: From the 119 patients 72 were treated with chemotherapy plus cetuximab while 47 were treated with chemotherapy alone. Median overall survival (mOS) was 9.2 months and median progression free survival (PFS) was 4.6 months. Patients treated with cetuximab compared to those who were not treated with cetuximab had a mOS of 11.4 vs 7.0 months (p = 0.770) and a median PFS of 6.2 vs 3.0 months (p = 0.249). Patients with PTEN loss of expression had a worse OS and PFS with mOS of 5.8 vs 10.5 months (p = 0.002) months and mPFS of 3.2 vs 5.2 (p = 0.015). On multivariate analysis including PTEN loss of expression and ECOG performance status both remained independently associated to survival with HR 2.25 (CI95% 1.28-3.97, p = 0.005) for PTEN loss of expression and a HR 1.63 (CI95% 1.07-2.50, p = 0.023) for ECOG. Negative prognostic impact of PTEN loss of expression was seen only in the cetuximab treated patients (mOS 7.3 vs 13.0 months; p = 0.002) but not in the chemotherapy only group (mOS 3.2 vs 7.5 months; p = 0.051). Interaction test for treatment group and PTEN loss of expression showed a p = 0.418. Conclusions: The present study confirms PTEN as a prognostic factor for metastatic HNSCC and suggests PTEN expression should be studied in larger cohorts to evaluate its predictive value to cetuximab response.

TPS587 Background: Patients (pts) with cisplatin ineligible metastatic urothelial carcinoma (mUC) who progress after first-line PD1/PDL1 inhibition have limited treatment options. The concept of maintenance therapy with targeted agents and adding onto it at time of progression is a proven effective strategy. Preclinical data indicate that carboplatin+gemcitabine have immunomodulatory effect to potentially augment immune response. We hypothesize that in pts with cisplatin ineligible mUC, the use of atezolizumab+chemotherapy after progression on single-agent PD1/PDL1 inhibitor will result in clinical benefit. Methods: Multi-center, single arm, open label phase 2 trial of atezolizumab+carboplatin+gemcitabine in pts with cisplatin ineligible mUC. Eligible pts are adults with mUC (mixed histology allowed) who progressed after first line PD1/PDL1 inhibitor. Pts should be cisplatin ineligible based on consensus criteria. Neoadjuvant/adjuvant chemotherapy completed ≥12 months prior to enrollment is allowed. Treatment with atezolizumab will continue until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity while carboplatin+gemcitabine can be stopped after 4-6 cycles. Primary objective is progression-free survival per RECIST and secondary objectives are overall response rate, clinical benefit rate, and overall survival (OS). Exploratory endpoints include to compare OS of atezolizumab+carboplatin+gemcitabine in this trial compared to a virtual control arm of carboplatin+gemcitabine in mUC after progression on first-line PD1/PDL1 inhibitors. Other exploratory endpoints include to compare PD-L1 status at time of diagnosis and at time of enrollment (after progression on PD1/PDL1 inhibitor). Using an alternate hypothesis that atezolizumab+carboplatin+gemcitabine will have a median PFS of 9 months compared to historical control of 5 months with a platinum regimen in 2nd line setting, we plan to enroll 33 patients. This study is currently enrolling pts. A protocol amendment is under way that will allow pts with prior platinum-based chemotherapy to enroll on this trial. Clinical trial information: NCT03737123.

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]

e19074 Background: S-1 is a novel oral 5-fluorouracil derivative that exhibits obvious activity against various tumor types including NSCLC. However, the effects of S-1 against SCLC have not been reported. The present phase II trial assesses the efficacy and safety of S-1 in previously treated SCLC patients. Methods: Eligible patients had pathologically documented SCLC that relapsed after platinum-based chemotherapy, ECOG performance status (PS) 0–2, and adequate bone marrow, kidney and liver function. Patients with untreated or symptomatic brain metastasis were excluded. Treatment comprised the oral administration of S-1 at 40 mg/m2 twice each day for 28 days every 6 weeks. The primary end point was the objective tumor response rate (RECIST). Secondary endpoints included progression-free survival and overall survival. Results: Twenty-six evaluable patients were enrolled (Simon's two-stage optimal design; α = 0.1; β = 0.1; P0 = 0.05; P1 = 0.25) with the following characteristics: male: female, 22/4; median age, 68 (33 - 79) y; PS0–1, n = 21; PS2, n = 5. The median number of prior treatment regimens was 2 (1–3). S-1 was administered for a mean of 1.3 cycles (1 - 5). One patient (3.8%) partially responded, 10 (38.5%) had stable and 15 (57.7%) had progressive disease. The overall response rate was 3.8% and the disease control rate was 42.3%. The median time to progression was 33 days. The median survival time was 8.0 months and the 1-year survival rate was 23%. This regimen was well tolerated. The common grade 3/4 toxicities included neutropenia (7.7%), leukopenia (7.7%), anemia (7.7%), hyponatremia (7.7%), rush (7.7%), infection (7.7%), and diarrhea (3.8%). None of the patients developed febrile neutropenia and no deaths were attributed to treatment. Conclusions: S-1 is well tolerated but has low activity as a single agent in previously treated patients with SCLC. No significant financial relationships to disclose.

e18005 Background: EOLE, a large cohort of 423 patients included in 1 year (July 2010 – July 2010) with locally advanced, metastatic or recurrent non-squamous NSCLC, aimed to describe the targeted population receiving first-line bevacizumab (Bev) in addition to chemotherapy with regards to progression-free survival, overall survival, safety and quality of life in real clinical practice. Methods: Patients who received physician’s choice of 1st-line Bev-containing treatment were included in this cohort study. Results: This analysis describes the inclusion data of 417 patients consisting of adenocarcinoma (92%), large cell carcinoma (4%), undifferentiated carcinoma in predominantly non-squamous (3%), bronchoalveolar carcinoma (1%). Patient characteristics were as follow: the median age being 60 (years) [32; 84], more males than females (68%), 40% had a baseline ECOG Performance Status (PS) 0, 47% of PS 1 and 12% of PS 2, most patients had Stage IV disease (91%), 13% of patients had never smoked. Tumor location was reported as central for 17% of patents and among them 4% was in contact with the large vessels. For 3% of the lesions a cavitation was notified; and 20% of included patients had brain metastases. The main comorbidities at the inclusion were: cardiovascular (45%), arterial thromboembolic and /or venous (20%) with pulmonary embolism (3%); related to the tumor lesion - bloody sputum (4%) and hemoptysis (1%). 68% of patients have received the dose of Bev 7.5mg/kg q3w; for 49% of patients Bev was combined with cisplatin/pemetrexed, 24% with carboplatin/paclitaxel, 13% with carboplatin/pemetrexed and 7% with cisplatin/gemcitabine. The EGFR mutation analysis was carried out for about 50% of patients. Conclusions: Compared to AVAil and SAil studies, EOLE cohort included more patients classified as having: a baseline PS of 2 (p <0.0001, Fisher test), a never smoked status (p<0.0001, chi2 test) and an adenocarcinoma (92%) (p<0.0001, chi2 test). Around a half of included patients received combination Bev - cisplatin /pemetrexed.

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.

9504 Background: T-DXd is an antibody-drug conjugate composed of an anti-HER2 antibody, cleavable tetrapeptide-based linker, and topoisomerase I inhibitor payload. In a phase I trial, patients (pts) with HER2-mutated NSCLC who received T-DXd had a confirmed objective response rate (ORR) of 72.7% (8/11) (Tsurutani et al, WCLC 2018). DESTINY-Lung01 (NCT03505710) is an ongoing, multicenter, phase II study of T-DXd in pts with non-squamous NSCLC overexpressing HER2 or containing a HER2-activating mutation. We report data for the cohort with HER2 mutations after a median follow-up of 8.0 mo (range, 1.4-14.2 mo). Methods: Pts were treated with T-DXd 6.4 mg/kg every 3 weeks. The primary endpoint was confirmed ORR (complete response [CR] + partial response [PR]) by ICR. Additional endpoints were disease control rate (DCR; CR + PR + stable disease), duration of response (DOR), progression-free survival (PFS), and safety. Results: At data cutoff (25 Nov 2019), 42 pts (64.3% female) had received T-DXd. Median age was 63.0 years (range, 34-83 years; < 65 y, 59.5%); 45.2% had central nervous system metastases; ECOG performance status was 0 in 23.8% of pts and 1 in 76.2%. HER2 mutations were predominantly in the kinase domain (90.5%). Most pts (90.5%) had prior platinum-based chemotherapy and 54.8% had anti–PD-1 or –PD-L1 treatment; median number of prior treatment lines was 2 (range, 1-6). Median treatment duration was 7.75 mo (range, 0.7-14.3 mo); 45.2% of pts remained on treatment. Confirmed ORR by ICR among the 42 pts was 61.9% (95% CI, 45.6%-76.4%); median DOR was not reached at data cutoff; 16 of 26 responders remained on treatment at data cutoff; DCR was 90.5% (95% CI, 77.4%-97.3%); estimated median PFS was 14.0 mo (95% CI, 6.4-14.0 mo). All pts (42/42) had treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs); 64.3% were grade ≥ 3 (52.4% drug-related), including decreased neutrophil count (26.2%) and anemia (16.7%). There were 5 cases (11.9%) of drug-related interstitial lung disease (ILD) as adjudicated by an independent committee (all grade 2, no grade ≥ 3) and 1 case of grade 1 ILD is pending adjudication. TEAEs led to dose interruption in 25 pts (59.5%), dose reduction in 16 pts (38.1%), and treatment discontinuation in 10 pts (23.8%). Conclusions: T-DXd demonstrated promising clinical activity with high ORR and durable responses in pts with HER2-mutated NSCLC. The safety profile was generally consistent with previously reported studies. Clinical trial information: NCT03505710 .

Introduction: Older adults with MM continue to remain under-represented in clinical trials, leading to paucity of information regarding the clinical characteristics and treatment outcomes, particularly among those 80y or older at the time of diagnosis. The International Myeloma Working Group (IMWG) classifies any patient &gt;80y as frail, irrespective of their fitness status. The value of geriatric assessment and frailty evaluation in this subgroup remain unclear. Methods: We used the Flatiron Health electronic record-derived de-identified database to source patients with incident MM diagnosed between January 1, 2011 and February 1, 2020. We compared clinical and demographic characteristics of patients ≥80y at the time of diagnosis with patients who were &lt;80y of age. We abstracted baseline labs and cytogenetic data documented within 90 days from the start of first-line therapy. For those ≥80y, we captured the receipt of first line anti-myeloma therapy and examined early mortality (death within 6 months of diagnosis), derived progression-free survival (dPFS) and overall survival (OS) using Kaplan-Meier methods and Cox multivariate regression, with date of diagnosis as the index date. Finally, we compared dPFS and OS among potentially fit ≥80yo MM vs those between 75-79y, using ECOG performance status (PS) of zero as a surrogate marker of fitness status. Results: Of 8298 MM patients in this cohort, 1144 (13.5%) patients were ≥80y at diagnosis (median 81y, range 80-85y). Compared with the younger cohort, those ≥80y were more likely to be white, and have anemia, renal insufficiency, higher β2-microglobulin and higher stage at diagnosis. However, there was a lower prevalence of documented high-risk cytogenetic abnormalities, particularly high risk translocations (t4;14 and t14;16) even after adjusting for race/ethnicity (Mantel Haenszel OR=0.67; p 0.001). Common first line therapies included proteasome inhibitor (PI) + Immunomodulatory agent (Imid) based triplet (23%), Imid doublet (21%) and PI doublet (27%) (Table). Patients ≥80y received a median of 1 (IQR 1-2) lines of therapy, as opposed to those &lt;80 (median 2, IQR 1-3). Overall, the outcome was significantly inferior among the ≥80y patients be those &lt;80y (median dPFS 16 vs. 39 months, p&lt;0.01; median OS: 26 vs 37 months, p&lt;0.01; and 6-month mortality rate: 20.1% vs 6.2%, p&lt;0.01). However, patients ≥80y and ECOG PS of 0 had similar 3y-dPFS (36.8 vs 33.1%; p=0.66) and 3y-OS (61.8 vs 65.2%; p=0.50) when compared to those between 75-79y with similar PS (ECOG PS of 0) (Figure). Conclusion: Patients 80y or above with newly diagnosed MM have distinct clinical and treatment characteristics as compared to their younger counterparts. Similar survival outcomes between older adults with good performance status vs their younger fit counterparts suggest the need for conducting a comprehensive frailty evaluation and individualized decision-making even in this cohort.

1013 Background: C alone has good activity and tolerability in metastatic breast cancer (MBC) and when combined with docetaxel improves response and survival. C combined with B in heavily pretreated MBC improved the response rate but not PFS. In untreated MBC, the addition of B to chemotherapy significantly improves progression-free survival (PFS) which suggests that B, is most effective in early disease. Methods: Primary objective of this single-arm, 2-phase study, is to evaluate PFS in MBC patients receiving first-line treatment with C 1,000 mg/m2 twice daily on days 1–15 (28 doses) and B 15 mg/kg on day 1. Treatment was repeated every 21 days until progression. Eligibility criteria included HER2-negative MBC previously untreated for metastatic disease; ECOG performance status =1; no prior anti-angiogenic or oral fluoropyrimidine therapy. A sample size of 109 patients (including dropouts) was required to give 90% power to test an improvement from 4 months median PFS to 5.6 months with the two-sided test (a 5%) Results: At data cut-off, 103 patients had received study medication. Present results are based on 103 patients (ITT population), except tumor response which is based on 91 patients who had response evaluation. The average # of cycles received in first phase is 6.8. 84 pts.are alive at this time. 38.5% (35/91) pts. have had a response: complete response 5.5%; partial response 33.0%. Stable disease is 42.9% with 81.4% clinical benefit. Planned dose received is 77.7 % for C and 99.0 % for B. The majority of adverse events (AEs) were mild or moderate. The most common grade 3 AEs were hand-foot syndrome (13%) and pain (10%); grade 4 pulmonary embolism occurred in 2% in the first phase of the study. Conclusions: Updated results with longer follow-up including toxicity, TTP and PFS will be presented at the meeting. It appears that in first-line C+B is active for MBC and is well tolerated, with few grade 3/4 toxicities. [Table: see text]

10528 Background: Locally advanced/metastatic soft tissue sarcoma is invariably incurable with a poor prognosis. Recently gemcitabine and docetaxel have been shown to be active in pre-treated relapsed leiomyosarcoma. This study aims to investigate the combination as first line treatment in patients with unresectable incurable leiomyosarcoma. Methods: Patients received gemcitabine 900mg/m2 days 1 and 8, and docetaxel 100mg/m2 day 8, administered 3-weekly for up to 8 cycles, with GCSF support on days 9–15. Patients who had received previous radiotherapy were treated at 75% dose. Patients were evaluated for response by RECIST after cycles 2, 4, 6, and 8, and three-monthly after completing treatment. The study was conducted with a Simon 2-stage design, recruiting 19 patients in stage 1, and 25 patients in stage 2. The primary endpoint was response rate, and secondary endpoints progression free survival (PFS), overall survival (OS), and toxicity evaluation. Results: Forty-four patients were treated. Eligible patients had histologically proven leiomyosarcoma of the uterus (48.9%) or other sites (51.1%) unresectable for cure, with measurable disease, no previous chemotherapy, adequate organ function, and performance status 0–2. 84.4% had metastatic disease, and 15.6% had locally advanced disease. 11% of patients had grade 1 disease, and 89% had grade 2/3 disease. All patients had demonstrated disease progression prior to trial entry. Responses were as follows: partial response 12 (27%), stable disease (confirmed) 16 (36%), stable disease (unconfirmed) 5 (11%), progressive disease 11 (25%). Median OS and PFS were 578 (95% CI 131–322) and 216 (95% CI 24–169) days. Progression free rates at 3 and 6 months were 68.9% (95% CI 55.1–82.7%) and 57.8% (95% CI 43.1–72.5%). Conclusions: This study demonstrates gemcitabine and docetaxel to be active in leiomyosarcoma in the first line setting. Further investigation comparing the combination with current standard therapies for leiomyosarcoma is warranted. No significant financial relationships to disclose.
