51 Background: The landscape of M0 CRPC has changed with the recent demonstration of metastasis-free survival (MFS) and overall survival (OS) improvements with the use of ARPIs in clinical trial settings. However, the extrapolation of this data to clinical practice is limited by strict exclusion criteria in these trials, including prior or concurrent malignancy, cardiovascular disease, or hypertension. The purpose of this study was to assess real-world outcomes in patients with M0 CRPC treated with ARPIs compared to historical controls. Methods: We designed a retrospective cohort study with the inclusion of patients in Alberta, Canada diagnosed with M0 CRPC between 2001-2020. Via chart review, we identified baseline characteristics, potential confounders, treatment details, and clinical outcomes. The primary outcome of interest was MFS. Secondary outcomes included: second progression-free survival (PFS2) and OS. Median survival times were measured using the Kaplan-Meier method and the log-rank test was used for comparison of outcomes based on ARPI exposure. Cox proportional hazard regression models were used to calculate hazard ratios (HR) accounting for impact of PSA doubling time (PSADT), use of osteoclast inhibiting agents, and presence of pelvic lymphadenopathy. Results: We identified 211 patients across multiple centres in Alberta with M0 CRPC, with 54 having received apalutamide (40/54), enzalutamide (7/54), or darolutamide (7/54). Median age at M0 CRPC diagnosis was 74 years; median PSADT was 4.4 months; and 19% of patients (40/211) had pelvic lymphadenopathy at diagnosis. Median MFS in patients treated with ARPIs was 47.5 months compared to 20.6 months in those not treated with ARPIs (HR, 0.23; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.11-0.49; p < 0.001). Median PFS2 in ARPI treated patients was 66.3 months compared with 35.6 months (HR, 0.40; 95% CI, 0.18-0.87; p = 0.022). Median OS for patients treated with ARPI was not reached. Conclusions: Given the older age of men with advanced prostate cancer, real-world outcomes that include patients with comorbidities are important adjuncts to the interpretation of clinical trials exploring the benefit of novel therapeutics. Here, we demonstrate that in a real-world, unselected population of men with M0 CRPC, apalutamide, enzalutamide, and darolutamide seem to confer similar MFS and PFS2 benefits to those demonstrated in the SPARTAN, PROSPER, and ARAMIS studies. Real-world OS data remain immature and will be an important addition to these findings.

Purpose There is a major clinical need to devise an optimal treatment sequence for the multiple therapy options available for patients with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC). In the absence of prospective clinical trials, sequencing information can be derived from large, real-world registry studies. Patients and Methods PROXIMA (Treatment Patterns in Patients With Metastatic Castration-Resistant Prostate Cancer Previously Treated With Docetaxel-Based Chemotherapy) is a large, global, prospective registry study evaluating real-world treatment patterns of patients with mCRPC who experience disease progression during or after docetaxel therapy. Patients were enrolled worldwide between 2011 and 2014. Treatments were determined by the treating physicians and recorded in categories of chemotherapy, hormonal therapy, targeted therapy, immunotherapy, and palliative therapy. Treatment sequencing patterns, response to treatment, and types of progression were recorded and analyzed. Progression-free survival and overall survival with different treatment modalities were analyzed using Kaplan–Meier method. Results Treatment patterns were evaluated in 903 patients. Therapy selection was influenced by region. Hormonal therapy (57.5%) and taxane chemotherapy (26.4%) were the most frequently administered first subsequent treatments after docetaxel. Tumor responses to first subsequent treatment were observed in 22.6% of evaluable patients. Overall survival and progression-free survival did not differ significantly across different treatment modalities. Conclusion Identifying an optimal treatment sequence is vital for improving the care of patients with mCRPC. The PROXIMA registry provided a representative sample of global data on real-world treatment patterns for patients with mCRPC previously treated with docetaxel. These data can be used to devise optimal therapy sequences and inform treatment decisions.

e17582 Background: Cabazitaxel is a semi-synthetic derivative of a natural taxoid approved for the treatment of mCRPC patients (pts) after failure to docetaxel. Despite its proven efficacy, there is variability in the response, progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) of pts. Changes in the genetic constitution of the individual such as the SNPs could explain this variability. The aim of this study was to evaluate the impact of certain SNPs in cabazitaxel activity. Methods: Clinical data from 67 mCRPC pts treated with cabazitaxel between March 2011 and October 2016 were collected. DNA was isolated from formalin fixed paraffin-embedded tumor samples. 56 SNPs in 5 genes related with metabolism and/or mechanism of action of cabazitaxel (CYP3A4, CYP3A5, ABCB1, TUBB1, CYP2C8) were chosen based on their Minor Allele Frequency, linkage disequilibrium and information from dbSNP and analyzed by TaqMan OpenArray (Lifetech). The presence/absence of mutant alleles of the selected SNPs was correlated with clinical features, progression free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) of prostate cancer. Chi-square test and Kaplan-Meier with log-rank test were used for statistical analyses. Results: The median age was 61 years (range 44-82). 56.7% (n = 38) had a Gleason score ≥8 and 94% had received docetaxel in first line. Type of response to cabazitaxel was associated with median OS (Partial response = 24.35 months, Stable disease = 11.16 months, Progression disease = 5.8 months; p= 0.045). Univariate analysis, showed worsed OS at 1 year for wild type status of SNP rs151352 (OR = 4, 95%CI 1.27-12.58, p= 0.029). In addition, two SNPs (rs11773597, rs1202186) were associated with radiological response to cabazitaxel ( p= 0.031 and p= 0.030 respectively). Other 7 SNPs (rs11773597, rs2235040, rs1045642, rs1419745, rs1202170, rs6949448, rs11572093) were associated ( p<0.05) with Gleason score, pain, PSA doubling time, febrile neutropenia and asthenia. Conclusions: A particular SNP profile could be predictive of efficacy and related with toxicity in mCRPC population treated with cabazitaxel after progression to docetaxel. These outcomes become particularly relevant in patient selection given the recent results of the CARD trial.

No evidence was found on the treatment sequences of androgen receptor–targeted agents in patients with castration-sensitive prostate cancer. Evidence from retrospective studies, including those within a systematic review, suggests that sequential treatment of abiraterone followed by enzalutamide is more favourable than enzalutamide followed by abiraterone in improving clinical outcomes such as response rate and progression-free survival, but not overall survival, in patients with castration-resistant prostate cancer. Evidence from a retrospective study suggests that docetaxel-containing treatment sequences with androgen receptor–targeted agents may improve progression-free survival compared to sequential therapy with androgen receptor–targeted agents alone in patients with castration-resistant prostate cancer. Evidence from a retrospective study did not reveal differences in clinical outcomes of patients with castration-resistant prostate cancer treated with sequential androgen receptor–targeted agents with or without interposed chemotherapy or radium-223. These findings were in line with those observed in a 2019 CADTH report.1 However, the findings should be interpreted with caution due to low-quality evidence. No comparative cost-effectiveness studies were identified.

337 Background: Even in the era of novel targeted agents, second-line antiandrogens still have its effect on treating metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC), especially for patients from undeveloped areas. Yet, it’s still uncertain if the prior use of second-line Non-steroidal antiandrogen Drugs (NSAA) would impact the efficacy of the sequential abiraterone (Abi) therapy. Methods: Eighty-seven patients from 2015 to 2017 were studied. All men were diagnosed with metastatic prostate cancer, and administrated with maximal androgen blockade (surgical or medical castration plus bicalutamide). After the median 32.0-Mo follow up, mCRPC was confirmed in the whole cohort. Abi was then administrated in these patients. Among them, 21 men previously received flutamide (FLU) as second-line NSAA hoping to postpone the initiation of the more expensive treatment. Therapeutic efficacy of Abi was analyzed and compared between those with and without prior second-line NSAA by Kaplan-Meier curves, Log-rank test and Cox regression models. Results: For patients with mCRPC, the prior exposure to FLU had no effect on the sequential treatment of Abi, in terms of either PSA progression-free survival (PSA-PFS, p = 0.967), radiographic progression-free survival (rPFS, P = 0.272), overall survival (OS, p = 0.606), or PSA response ( p = 0.370). However, when bringing ahead the observation point to the time of CRPC, those with second-line FLU showed better survival than those without, in either PSA-PFS (15.1 vs. 12.2-Mo, p = 0.120), rPFS (23.3 vs. 18.2-Mo, p = 0.029) or OS (not reach vs. 30.7-Mo, p = 0.306), though the difference of PSA-PFS and OS were not statistically significant. Conclusions: We firstly address the impact of the secondary NSAA on the efficacy of the sequential Abi treatment in mCRPC patients. Our study supported that, whether the patients received second-line NSAA prior to Abi should not be considered as an impact factor interfering physicians’ decision making of Abi treatment. Also, the switching treatment before Abi seemed to have a potential to extend the survival time of mCRPC patients by prolonging their PFS.

Background: Real-world data on chemotherapy-naïve patients with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) treated with abiraterone plus prednisone are limited, largely deriving from small retrospective studies. Methods: ABitude is an Italian, observational, prospective, multicenter study of mCRPC patients receiving abiraterone plus prednisone in clinical practice. Chemotherapy-naïve mCRPC patients were consecutively enrolled at abiraterone start (February 2016 to June 2017) and are being followed for 3 years, with evaluation approximately every 6 months. Several clinical and patients reported outcomes were examined. Results: In this second interim analysis, among 481 enrolled patients, 453 were evaluable for analyses. At baseline, the median age was 77 years and ~69% of patients had comorbidities (mainly cardiovascular diseases). Metastases were located mainly at bones and lymph nodes; 8.4% of patients had visceral metastases. During a median follow-up of 18 months, 1- and 2-year probability of radiographic progression-free survival were 73.9% and 56.2%, respectively; the corresponding rates for overall survival were 87.3% and 70.4%. In multivariable analyses, the number of bone metastases significantly affected radiographic progression-free survival and overall survival. During abiraterone plus prednisone treatment, 65% of patients had a ⩾50% prostate-specific antigen decline, and quality of life remained appreciably high. Among symptomatic patients according to the Brief Pain Inventory) (32%), scores significantly declined after 6 months of treatment. Overall, eight patients (1.7%) had serious adverse reactions to abiraterone. Conclusions: Abiraterone plus prednisone is effective and safe for chemotherapy-naïve mCRPC patients in clinical practice.

BackgroundBoth Docetaxel (DOC) and Abiraterone (ABI) improve the survival of men with metastatic, castration sensitive prostate cancer (mCSPC). However, the outcome among mCSPC patients is highly variable, while there is a lack of predictive markers of therapeutic benefit. Furthermore, there is limited data on the comparative real-world effectiveness of adding DOC or ABI to androgen deprivation therapy (ADT).MethodsWe conducted a retrospective analysis of 121 mCSPC patients treated at Odette Cancer Centre (Toronto, ON, Canada) between Dec 2014 and Mar 2021 (DOC n = 79, ABI n = 42). The primary endpoint studied was progression free survival (PFS), defined as the interval from start of ADT to either (i) biochemical, radiological, or symptomatic progression, (ii) start of first-line systemic therapy for castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC), or (iii) death, whichever occurred first. To identify independent predictive factors for PFS in the entire cohort, a Cox proportional hazard model (stepwise selection) was applied. Overall survival (OS) was among secondary endpoints.ResultsAfter a median follow-up of 39.6 and 25.1 months in the DOC and ABI cohorts, respectively, 79.7% of men in the DOC and 40.5% in the ABI group experienced a progression event. PFS favored the ABI cohort (p = 0.0038, log-rank test), with 78.0% (95%CI 66.4–91.8%) of ABI versus 67.1% (57.5–78.3%) of DOC patients being free of progression at 12 months. In univariate analysis superior PFS was significantly related to older age at diagnosis of mCSPC, metachronous metastatic presentation, low-volume (CHAARTED), and low-risk (LATITUDE) disease, ≥90% PSA decrease at 3 months (PSA90), and PSA nadir ≤0.2 at 6 months. Age (HR = 0.955), PSA90 (HR = 0.462), and LATITUDE risk stratification (HR = 1.965) remained significantly associated with PFS in multivariable analysis. OS at 12 months was 98.7% (96.3–100%) and 92.7% (85.0–100%) in the DOC and ABI groups (p = 0.97), respectively.ConclusionsIn this real-world group of men undergoing treatment intensification with DOC or ABI for mCSPC, we did not find a significant difference in OS, but PFS was favoring ABI. Age at diagnosis of mCSPC, PSA90 at 3 months and LATITUDE risk classification are predictive factors of PFS in men with mCSPC.

Abstract Objective This study aimed to reveal the prognostic values of prior local therapy in first-line therapy using androgen receptor-axis targeting agents (abiraterone or enzalutamide) or docetaxel for castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC). Methods The study included 303 patients treated with first-line therapy for non-metastatic and metastatic CRPC. The association between prior local therapy and therapeutic outcome including progression-free survival and overall survival was investigated by univariate and multivariate analyses as well as propensity score-matched analysis. Results In univariate analysis, local prior therapy was associated with a lower risk of all-cause mortality (hazard ratio, 0.56, 95% confidence interval, 0.40–0.79; P = 0.0009). Overall survival, but not progression-free survival, was better among patients with prior local therapy compared with patients without prior local therapy even after multivariate analysis and propensity score-matched analysis. Conclusions This study robustly indicated that prior local treatment was prognostic for overall survival among patients with CRPC. This finding is useful to predict patient prognosis in CRPC.

Abstract Objectives: The risk factors for prostate cancer to progress to castration-resistant prostate cancer after androgen deprivation treatment (ADT) are still not to be well defined. We conducted this investigation in an attempt to determine factors that predicted the prognosis in a series of patients with prostate cancer after ADT. Methods: We retrospectively analyzed the database of patients treated with androgen deprivation prostate cancer who were hospitalized in the Second Affiliated Hospital of Bengbu Medical College and Maoming People's Hospital from 2015.1.1 to 2020.12.30. PSA dynamic changes, including nadir PSA (nPSA), time to nadir PSA (TTN), were examined regularly. Cox risk proportional regression model was used for univariate and multivariate analysis; Kaplan-Meier survival curve and Log-rank test were used to compare and analyze differences in biochemical progression-free survival (bPFS) between groups. Results: During the follow-up with a median time of 43.5 months, a total of 163 men were included in the study. The median bPFS of the two groups with nPSA lower than 0.2ng/ml and ≥0.2ng/ml were 27.6 months and 13.5, respectively, with significant differences between the groups (Log-rank p<0.001); The median bPFS of the two groups with TTN ≥9 months and less than 9 were 27.8 months and 13.5 months, respectively, with significant differences between the groups (Log rank p<0.001). Conclusions: PSA dynamic changes after androgen deprivation treatment of prostate cancer can be used as prognostic indicators for bPFS. The lower the nadir PSA value and the longer the time to nadir, the longer the bPFS of patients with prostatic cancer after androgen deprivation treatment.

TPS191 Background: Opaganib (Yeliva, ABC294640) is a first-in-class, sphingosine kinase-2 (SK2) selective inhibitor, with anticancer, anti-inflammatory and anti-viral activities. SK2, a lipid kinase catalyzes formation of the lipid signaling molecule sphingosine 1-phosphate (S1P). S1P promotes cancer growth, and proliferation and pathological inflammation, including inflammatory cytokine production. Specifically, by inhibiting the SK2 enzyme, opaganib blocks the synthesis of S1P which regulates fundamental biological processes such as cell proliferation, migration, immune cell trafficking and angiogenesis, and are also involved in immune-modulation and suppression of innate immune responses from T cells. Opaganib is a sphingosine-competitive inhibitor of SK2 and also inhibits dihydroceramide desaturase. Opaganib has antitumor activity against human and murine prostate cancer cell lines, and in xenograft (LNCaP) and syngeneic (MycCAP, TRAMP-C1) murine tumor models. In addition to its target effect of reducing sphingosine-1-phosphate, opaganib reduces both MYC and AR proteins through its kinase-blocking and desaturase-inhibiting properties, respectively. Methods: The study is open to patients with mCRPC who have been treated with at least one newer androgen antagonist (abiraterone or enzalutamide) and no prior chemotherapy for castration-resistant disease. Patients who are failing either abiraterone or enzalutamide may enroll, with the addition of opaganib. The trial design includes brief safety lead-in cohort 1a (abiraterone + opaganib 250 mg Q 12hr, 3/3 enrolled) and 1b (enzalutamide + opaganib 250 mg Q 12hr, 3/3 enrolled). These cohorts have been completed without any DLTs. We are now enrolling cohort 2 (abiraterone + opaganib 500 mg Q 12hr, 0/27 enrolled) and cohort 3 (enzalutamide + opaganib 500 mg Q 12hr, 8/27 enrolled). A total of 60 patients will be enrolled and response will be evaluated after 4 cycles (28 days/cycle) using a composite metric based on PSA, bone scan and RECIST measurements per PCWG3 criteria. Safety and tolerability will be monitored, and dose modifications will be allowed. Primary endpoint is disease control (stable disease or better) after 4 cycles. Secondary endpoints include overall survival, radiographic progression-free survival and PSA progression-free survival. Correlative studies include assessment of quality of life (QOL), circulating MDSCs, immune cells and clones with amplified AR or MYC. Supported by NIH grant P01 CA203628.
