Introduction. Based on the subgroup analysis of the TRIBE study FOLFOXIRI with bevacizumab is the recommended option for patients (pts) with mBRAF metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC) in the 1st line. However, subgroup analysis of other studies showed conflicting results. Therefore, we performed systemic review and meta-analysis to compare efficacy FOLFOXIRI and doublets with targeted therapy in pts with mBRAF mCRC in terms of progression free survival (PFS), objective response rate (ORR) and overall survival (OS).Methods. We performed a search of all prospective randomizes studies in PubMed, ASCO and ESMO congresses for all years before May, 2020, compared FOLFOXIRI plus bevacizumab or anti-EGFR antibodies and FOLFOX or FOLFIRI with targeted agents at the 1st line with information of the BRAF status. Primary outcome was hazard ratio (HR) for PFS and 95% confidence interval (CI); secondary – HR for OS and odds ratio (OD) for ORR. Fixed effects were used for analysis. Meta-analysis was conducted by Review Manager Ver. 5.3.Results. We identified 6 trials (CHARTA, STEAM, TRIBE, TRIBE2, VISNU, METHEP2), which included 158 pts with mBRAF (FOLFOXIRI – 82 (52%) and doublets – 76 (48%). According to results of the meta-analysis there was a tendency for higher ORR in pts with FOLFOXIRI (OR 2.07, 95% CI 0.61–7.06; p = 0.24; I2 = 27%, p for heterogeneity 0.26; 3 trials). However we didn’t find any significant improvement in PFS (HR 0.89, 95% CI 0.64–1.23; p = 0.48; I2 = 0%, p for heterogeneity 0.63; 5 trials) or OS (HR 0.9, 95% CI 0.37–1.19; p = 0.048; I2 = 71%, p for heterogeneity 0.06; 2 trials) in the group of triplet.Conclusions. FOLFOXIRI with targeted therapy did not show significant improvement in the PFS and OS in pts with mBRAF compared with FOLFOX or FOLFIRI with targeted antibodies. A prospective randomized trial is needed to determine the optimal chemotherapy regimen at the 1st line for pts with mBRAF mCRC.

561 Background: Weekly cetuximab and irinotecan is a standard regimen in heavily pretreated patients with metastatic colorectal cancer (MCRC). The aim of this study was to prospectively evaluate the efficacy of combination chemotherapy with biweekly cetuximab and irinotecan in patients with pretreated MCRC harboring wild-type KRAS. Methods: Patients with wild- type KRAS MCRC that had progressed after chemotherapy with irinotecan, oxaliplatin, and fluoropyrimidine were included in this study. Cetuximab was administered at 500 mg/m2 biweekly with irinotecan. The primary endpoint was response rate. The secondary endpoints included adverse events, progression-free survival, and overall survival. The pharmacokinetics of cetuximab was also evaluated in five patients. Results: From May, 2009 to February, 2010, a total of 31 patients were enrolled from five institutions. One patient was not eligible. Among the 30 assessable patients, ECOG PS was 0 in 12, 1 in 16, and 2 in two patients. The objective response rate was 30.0% (95% confidence interval [CI], 14.7-49.4), and the disease control rate (complete response, partial response, or stable disease) was 76.7% (95%CI, 61.4-92.3). The median progression-free survival was 5.3 months (95%CI, 3.4-7.3). Grade 3 skin toxicity was observed in 3 patients (10%), and treatment related death due to pneumonia occurred in one patient. Conclusions: The efficacy data are similar to those of standard dose of cetuximab plus irinotecan. Combination chemotherapy with biweekly cetuximab and irinotecan is effective for pretreated metastatic wild-type KRAS MCRC. No significant financial relationships to disclose.

Expression Levels

e14066 Background: MicroRNA-143 is frequently down-regulated in colorectal cancer (CRC) and influence CRC cell proliferation, apoptosis and sensitivity to 5-fluorouracil. mRNA encoded by the KRAS oncogene has been identified as a target of microRNA-143. However, the prognostic significance of microRNA-143 expression and the ability to predict the patient response to EGFR-targeted agents have not been explored yet. Methods: In this study, we analyzed 77 CRC harboring wild-type KRAS and obtaining treatment with the EGFR-targeting monoclonal antibodies cetuximab or panitumumab. MicroRNA-143 expression was measured by RT-PCR in both CRC and corresponding non-neoplastic colon tissue and the expression levels were correlated with clinico-pathological characteristics. Cancer-specific survival was calculated by uni- and multivariate analyses. The progression-free survival and objective response rates on EGFR-targeted therapy were also evaluated. Results: Down-regulation of microRNA-143 was observed in 47/77 (61%) CRC. Multivariate Cox regression analysis identified low levels of microRNA-143 expression as an independent prognostic factor with respect to cancer-specific survival (HR=1.92, CI=1.1-3.4, p=0.024). A significant difference was observed with respect to progression-free survival on EGFR-targeted therapy (p=0.031, log-rank test), but there were no significant differences with regard to the objective response rate. Conclusions: Our data suggest that microRNA-143 expression levels serve as independent prognostic biomarker for KRAS wild-type CRC patients but not as predictor for EGFR-targeted therapy. In addition, we consider microRNA-143 as a potential drug target for future therapy of CRC.

830 Background: Previous evidence suggests that TL may be predictive of the efficacy of C/P versus bevacizumab. This meta-analysis was aimed to evaluate the efficacy of CTX plus C/P versus CTX only as a first-line (1L) or second-line (2L) treatment for RAS wt right- and left-sided mCRC (R- and L-mCRC) in randomized controlled trials (RCTs). Methods: A systematic literature review was performed of PubMed and oncology congress websites (2000–present). RCTs studying the additional efficacy of C/P to CTX in RAS wt R- and L-mCRC were included. Assessed outcomes included progression-free survival (PFS), overall survival (OS), and objective response rate (ORR). Random-effects meta-analytic models were used in the presence of significant heterogeneity ( I2> 50%). Otherwise, fixed-effects models were performed. Random-effects meta-regression models were used to evaluate the interaction between TL and the efficacy of C/P. Results: A total of three 1L RCTs (CRYSTAL, PRIME, and TAILOR) and one 2L RCT (20050181) were included (325 pts with R-mCRC and 1214 with L-mCRC). Pooled estimates of the efficacy of C/P are summarized in the table. In both R- and L-mCRC pts, the addition of C/P to CTX significantly improved PFS and ORR. A significant OS benefit from C/P was observed in L-mCRC but not R-mCRC pts. No significant interaction was detected between TL and the efficacy of C/P on PFS, OS, and ORR ( P= 0.69, 0.09, and 0.22, respectively). Conclusions: Adding C/P to CTX clearly benefits RAS wt L-mCRC pts in terms of PFS, OS, and ORR. Considering the improvements in PFS and ORR versus CTX only, anti-EGFR agents remain an option for pts with RAS wt R-mCRC. [Table: see text]

115 Background: Recent studies have shown efficacy of chemotherapy (CTX) in combination with different biological agents including regorafenib (REG) in second-line treatment of metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC). As there is no evidence on the relative efficacy and safety of REG as compared to other biological agents in combination with CTX, we evaluated the same in this network meta-analysis (NMA). Methods: Randomized controlled trials (RCTs) comparing efficacy and safety of biological agents + CTX against CTX alone as second-line treatment of mCRC were retrieved from PubMed, EMBASE and Cochrane databases. Progression free survival (PFS) was the primary outcome, while objective response rate (ORR), overall survival (OS) and safety were secondary outcomes. Outcomes were compared by random/mixed-effects NMA using Bayesian (R software, Gemtc package) and frequentist (R software, netmeta package) approaches. Results: Twelve RCTs comparing 9 different treatment regimens with a total of 6805 patients were included for analysis. Hazard ratios (HR)/ odds ratio (OR)/ relative risk (RR) and 95% confidence intervals (CI) for PFS, ORR and grade> 3 adverse events (AE) of selected comparisons from the results of the NMA are shown in table. Conclusions: REG combined with CTX might be a potential alternative to conventional therapeutic options and could be considered as the best option for treating KRAS and BRAF mutated mCRC patients. Future RCTs are needed to confirm our results. [Table: see text]

Objective We performed this meta-analysis to compare the efficacy and toxicity of regorafenib and TAS-102. Methods Electronic databases were searched to identify studies comparing the efficacy and safety of regorafenib and TAS-102 in patients with chemotherapy-refractory metastatic colorectal cancer using pooled analyses. Results Three clinical trials were included in this analysis. Regarding the reasons for treatment discontinuation, regorafenib was significantly associated with disease progression (odds ratio [OR] = 0.33, 95% confidence interval [CI] = 0.21–0.50) and adverse events (OR = 4.38, 95% CI = 2.69–7.13). However, overall (OR = 0.97, 95% CI = 0.81–1.17) and progression-free survival (OR = 1.01, 95% CI = 0.86–1.18) did not significantly differ between the groups. The most common treatment-related adverse events in the regorafenib group were neutropenia (OR = 0.06, 95% CI = 0.03–0.11), hand–foot syndrome (OR = 50.34, 95% CI = 10.44–242.84), and liver dysfunction (OR = 34.51, 95% CI = 8.30–143.43). Conversely, the incidence of thrombocytopenia did not differ between the two groups. Conclusions Regorafenib and TAS-102 have similar efficacy but different adverse event profiles. Differences in the toxicity profiles of the two drugs will help guide treatment selection.

Background: Regorafenib is a multi-kinase inhibitor approved for treatment of refractory advanced colorectal cancer. It was found in the clinical trials to have a modest benefit and significant toxicity. Our aim was to assess the outcome in our local clinic practice. Patients and methods: Records of patients with confirmed colorectal cancer treated with regorafenib were reviewed. Clinical, pathological, and molecular data were collected. Efficacy and factors of possible prognostic significance were analyzed. Results: A total of 78 patients with metastatic colorectal cancer were treated with regorafenib from February 2014 to February 2016 in 4 different institutions (median age: 50.5 years; male: 40 [51.3%]; KRAS mutant: 41 [52%]; right colonic primary: 18 [23%]). A total of 52 patients (66.7%) had Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) Performance Status of 0 to 1, whereas in 25 patients (32.1%) it was >1. In total, 58 patients (74%) had dose reduction. No patient achieved objective response, 15 patients (19%) achieved stable disease, and 56 patients (72%) had progressive disease. With a median follow-up of 6.5 months, the median progression-free survival was 2.8 months (95% confidence interval [CI], 2.5-3.3) and overall survival was 8.0 months (95% CI, 6.2-9.7). Only performance status of ⩽1 had a statistically significant impact on progression-free survival and overall survival in both univariate and multivariate analyses. Conclusions: Regorafenib in our clinical practice has equal efficacy to reported data from pivotal registration trials. Our data suggest that performance status is the most important prognostic factor in patients treated with regorafenib, suggesting a careful selection of patients.

Aim: PD-1 inhibitors have a leading role among immunotherapy while its efficacy on colorectal cancer (CRC) patients did not reach consensus and the small sample size remains as a limitation. Therefore, we undertook a meta-analysis on the effects of the monotherapy anti-PD-1 inhibitors in treating metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC). Materials & methods: We searched databases to identify studies on efficacy of anti-PD-1 inhibitor on CRC. Objectives were objective response rate, progression-free survival rate, disease control rate and overall survival rate with their 95% CI. Results: The overall survival rate at 1-year was 64.2% (95% CI: 0.46–0.83). Disease control rate was 56.5% (CI: 0.27–0.86) and the objective response rate as 19.7% (CI: 0.08–0.32). The 1-year-progression-free survival rate was 38.4% (CI: 0.12–0.66). Sensitivity analysis and subgroup analysis were also conducted. Conclusion: The monotherapy anti-PD-1 inhibitors are effective in treating mCRC and could be a new option for dMMR mCRC patient in first-line treatment.
