e14125 Background: Cancer therapeutics often receive FDA approval months to years before regulatory submission to other countries. [i] Registrational trials in oncology are increasingly international, with many patients enrolled outside of the United States. Harmonizing access to new global standards of treatment may facilitate optimal design and conduct of global clinical trials. Methods: In May 2019, the Oncology Center for Excellence launched Project Orbis in collaboration with the Australian Therapeutic Good Administration (TGA) and Health Canada. The aim of this initiative is to provide a framework for concurrent submission and review of oncology products among international partners to facilitate global access. Results: The first Project Orbis was a collaborative review of a supplemental application for lenvatinib and pembrolizumab for patients with advanced endometrial cancer. This review also deployed other OCE regulatory review tools including the Real-Time Oncology Review (RTOR) pilot program, which can streamline the submission of data prior to the completion and submission of the entire application, and its accompanying Assessment Aid, to facilitate discussions among regulatory agencies. Lenvatinib and pembrolizumab was approved on September 17, 2019, in conjunction with the TGA and Health Canada, three months prior to the FDA goal date. FDA, TGA, and Health Canada issued a second action under Project Orbis on November 21, 2019, with the approval of acalabrutinib for patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia or small lymphocytic lymphoma. Several other products are under international review as part of this pilot program and a summary of timelines and outcomes will be described. Conclusions: Project Orbis is an innovative OCE initiative that leverages the Center’s longstanding communication and collaboration with international regulators. This pilot program facilitates concurrent submission and review of oncology products among global regulatory health agencies. Continued efforts under Project Orbis will build on the initial success to incorporate additional global partners including Swissmedic and Singapore’s Health Science Authority.
