SHR-1210 Combined With Trastuzumab , Oxaliplatin and Capecitabine for Neoadjuvant Therapy of Gastric Adenocarcinoma/Gastroesophageal Junction Adenocarcinoma

e16549 Background: Neoadjuvant chemotherapy for patients with locally advanced gastric and gastroesophageal junction adenocarcinoma (GC/GEJC) can improve the overall survival without increasing operation risk. Nowadays, immunotherapy has become a new promising neoadjuvant treatment. Therefore, we intended to evaluate the safety and efficacy of camrelizumab (anti-PD-1 antibody) combined with FOLFOX as the neoadjuvant therapy for patients with locally advanced GC/GEJC who received D2 radical gastrectomy. Methods: Patients who were diagnosed as resectable locally advanced GC/GEJC received the neoadjuvant treatment of camrelizumab and FOLFOX every 2 weeks for 4 cycles. Imaging evaluation was performed in 2-4 weeks after neoadjuvant therapy. Patients who had no progression disease (PD) were recruited. Eligible patients underwent gastrectomy with D2 lymph node dissection through laparotomy or laparoscopic surgery. The primary end points were safety and R0 resection rate. Results: From July 24 2019 to January 31 2020, 15 patients were recruited. The mean age was 57 years. A total of 10(67%) were males and 5(33%) were females. According to AJCC 8th, cT3 and cT4 were confirmed in 7(47%) patients and 8(53%) patients, N1 and N2 in 7(47%) patients and 8(53%) patients, respectively. During operation, intraperitoneal metastases were found in 2 patients. Of the 13 surgeries, only 2 were laparoscopic and the others were laparotomy. The surgical procedures included Roux-en-Y (9, 69.2%), Billroth II (1, 7.7%) and jejunum interposition (3, 23.1%). Thirteen patients underwent gastrectomy with D2 lymph node dissection and all of them were confirmed R0 resection by postoperative pathology results. The mean lymph node yield was 44.1±13.2 nodes, positive lymph node yield was 1.8±2.8 nodes. Duration time of surgery was 186.5±45.5 minutes, mean blood loss was 219.2±109 ml during the operation. Mean hospital stays were 13.2±2.4 days. Only 1 patient experienced grade 3 pneumonia. Neither serious intraoperative complications nor immune-related adverse events both prior and post operation were observed. There was no treatment-related death. Conclusions: Camrelizumab combined with FLOFOX as neoadjuvant treatment for patients with locally advanced GC/GEJC showed acceptable toxicity and promising efficacy with low complications and mortality. Clinical trial information: NCT03939962 .

4536 Background: Neoadjuvant chemotherapy has been demonstrated to improve the pathological complete response(pCR) and 5-year survival rate of patients with locally advanced gastric and gastroesophageal junction adenocarcinoma (GC/GEJC). Immunotherapy has become a new promising treatment for advanced GC/GEJC. Therefore, we intended to evaluate the safety and efficacy of Camrelizumab (anti-PD-1 antibody) combined with FOLFOX as the neoadjuvant therapy for patients with locally advanced GC/GEJC. Methods: Eligiblepatients were locally advanced GC/GEJC with clinical stage≥T2 and/or positive lymphoglandula confirmed by endoscopic ultrasonography (EUS) and imaging. They received 4 cycles neoadjuvant therapy which including Camrelizumab(200mg ivgtt D1), FOLFOX(Oxaliplatin 85mg/m2 ivgtt D1, 5-Fu 400mg/m2 iv D1, LV 200mg/m2 ivgtt D1, 5-Fu 2.4mg/m2 CIV 46 hours) every 14 days. Imaging evaluation was performed in 2-4 weeks after neoadjuvant therapy. Patients without progression disease (PD) received D2 radical gastrectomy. The primary endpoint was pCR, the secondary endpoints were R0 resection rate and safety. Results: From July 24 2019 to January 31 2020, 16 patients were eligible. The median age was 57 years (29-72 years). A total of 11(69%) males and 5(31%) females, ECOG PS 0 (n=9, 56%), ECOG PS 1 (n=7, 44%). All the patients completed 4 cycles treatment and none of them was confirmed PD by image. One of the patients refused gastrectomy and withdraw from the study. The other 15 patients underwent operation. Unfortunately, intraperitoneal metastases were confirmed in 2 patients during operation. 13 patients received D2 radical gastrectomy and all of them experienced R0 resection. Among the 13 evaluable patients, 1 patient (8%) was observed pCR, 3 patients (23%) experienced TRG1, 10 patients (77%) achieved stage reduction. Notably, 8 patients (62%) had lymphonodus pCR. The grade 3-4 treatment-related AEs were neutropenia (n=3, 19%), leukopenia (n=2, 13%) and anorexia (n=1, 6%). No serious AEs resulted in termination of treatment. Either severe immune-related AEs or treatment-related death was not observed. Conclusions: Camrelizumab combined with FOLFOX as neoadjuvant regimen in patients with locally advanced GC/GEJC showed promising pCR with good tolerance. Clinical trial information: NCT03939962 .

4036 Background: Although anti-PD-1 antibody in combination with chemotherapy has shown promising antitumor activity in advanced gastric or gastroesophageal junction adenocarcinoma (GC/GEJC), the evidence of neoadjuvant therapy for locally advanced GC/GEJC is limited. Camrelizumab combined FOLFOX as neoadjuvant therapy for resectable locally advanced GC/GEJC was a prospective, single-arm, phase 2 study we conducted. Here, we updated the results of efficacy and safety of this study. Methods: Patients confirmed by endoscopic ultrasonography (EUS) and imaging with clinical stage≥T2 and/or positive lymph nodes were enrolled. They received 4 cycles of camrelizumab (200mg ivgtt on day1, q2w) plus FOLFOX (oxaliplatin 85mg/m2 ivgtt, LV 200mg/m2 ivgtt, 5-Fu 400mg/m2 iv followed by 2.4mg/m2 CIV 46 hours on day 1, q2w) as neoadjuvant therapy. Then patients without disease progression evaluated by imaging underwent gastrectomy of D2 lymph node dissection. The primary endpoint was pCR, the secondary endpoints were R0 resection rate and safety. Results: Between Jul 24 2019 and Nov 30 2020, 49 patients were enrolled. The median age was 57 years (29-72 years). All patients completed 4 cycles treatment. Unfortunately, 2 of them were confirmed PD by imaging. In addition, two patients refused gastrectomy and withdrew from the study. Eventually, 45 patients underwent gastrectomy, of which 3 patients had intraperitoneal metastases during the operation. A total of 42 patients were evaluable, all of them gained R0 resection (100%), 4 patients (10%) achieved pCR and 10 patients (24%) reached TRG1. Among the patients experienced pCR, one of them was Her-2 positive, one was MSI-H, the rest two of them were PD-L1-positive (CPS≥10). The most common ≥grade 3 adverse events (AEs) were neutropenia (35%) and leukopenia (16%). Only 1 patient (2%) experienced grade 3 immune-related AEs of alanine aminotransferase and aspartate aminotransferase increase. No serious AEs resulted in termination of treatment or death. Conclusions: Camrelizumab combined with FOLFOX was an effective and safe neoadjuvant therapy strategy for patients with resectable locally advanced GC/GEJC. Furthermore, the analysis of biomarkers with clinical benefits is undergoing. Clinical trial information: NCT03939962. [Table: see text]

e16025 Background: Anti-PD-1 antibody combined with chemotherapy showed promising efficacy in gastric adenocarcinoma. However, little is known about biomarkers that identify clinical response. Here, we focus on genomic alteration patterns to predict response of neoadjuvant immunotherapy in patients with locally advanced gastric or gastroesophageal junction adenocarcinoma (GC/GEJC). Methods: Patients with locally advanced GC/GEJC were received 4 cycles of FOLFOX plus anti-PD-1 antibody (camrelizumab) as neoadjuvant therapy in the study. We prospectively conducted whole exome sequencing (WES) in paired biopsy specimens from enrolled patients at baseline. According to Tumor Regression Grading (TRG) assessment by postoperative pathology, patients were classified into group A (TRG0 & TRG1) and group B (TRG2 & TRG3). Results: We eventually performed WES in 23 patients who had adequate available tumor tissues. The clinical characterizations were not significantly different between two groups. All 23 cases were microsatellite stable (MSS). Alterations of AHNAK2 (50.0%/6.67%), TG (50.0%/6.67%), CTNNB1 (37.5%/0.0%) and ZFHX2 (37.5%/0.0%) significantly enriched in group A (n = 8) compared to group B (n = 15).Furthermore, we inspecting 10 hallmark oncogenic pathways, alterations of WNT pathway also occurred more frequently in group A than those of group B. Genomic alterations in WNT pathway were identified in 5 of 23 cases (21.74%), of which the most frequently mutated genes were CTNNB1 (13.04%), LRP5 (8.69%) and RNF43 (8.69%). Tumor mutation burden (TMB, p = 0.357), whole genome duplication (WGD) status (p = 0.667), copy number variant burden (p = 0.825), fraction of loss of heterozygosity (LOH) in chromosome level (p: 0.07-1), tumor neoantigen burden (TNB) (p = 0.65), HLA type (p: 0.49-1) and HLA LOH status (p: 0.37-1) were not significantly associated with neoadjuvant therapy response. Conclusions: Aberrant activation of WNT pathway was reported to be associated with immune evasion. Our study demonstrated that CTNNB1/WNT-pathway-mut may be a promising predictor for clinical response of neoadjuvant immutherapy in GC/GEJC. Clinical trial information: NCT03939962.

Abstract Background Adenosquamous carcinoma (ASC) of the ampulla of Vater (AmV) is exceedingly rare with more aggressive behavior and worse prognosis than adenocarcinoma. The finding of ASC at the AmV in combination to the gastric adenocarcinoma has never been reported in the literature before. Case presentation An old lady was diagnosed as gastric adenocarcinoma at stage IV with enlargement of supraclavicular lymph nodes by gastroscopy and histopathological evaluation 3 years ago. Afterwards, the patient achieved complete remission after regular chemotherapy. However, the patient manifested yellow sclera and skin, choluria and clay colored stool 3 months ago. Preoperative contrast-enhanced CT, ERCP, MRCP, and PET/CT revealed the presence of an ampullary tumor. The patient then underwent laparoscopic radical gastrectomy and pancreaticoduodenectomy with regional lymph node dissection. Postoperative cytological analyses confirmed the diagnosis of gastric ulcer with complete response to neoadjuvant therapy and ASC at the AmV. The patient’s postoperative outcome was uneventful. Conclusion Drawing firm conclusions about the diagnosis of ampullary ASC is difficult because of the difficulty in acquiring both adenocarcinoma and SCC components by fine needle biopsy. The rarity of ASC of the AmV coexistent with gastric carcinoma makes it difficult to elucidate their clinicopathological characteristics, therapeutic strategies and overall prognosis. Surgical resection still remains the main treatment method.
