At present, treatment options for osimertinib resistance are very limited. Dual inhibition of the vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) significantly improved the progression-free survival (PFS) of advanced EGFR-mutant non–small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). After EGFR-tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) resistance, EGFR-TKI continuation combined with VEGF inhibitors still had clinical benefits. It is unclear whether the addition of bevacizumab after osimertinib progresses will prolong the duration of the osimertinib benefit. We screened 1289 patients with NSCLC and finally included 96 patients to evaluate osimertinib combined with bevacizumab (osi + bev) versus chemotherapy combined with bevacizumab (che + bev) for patients with acquired resistance to osimertinib. The overall response rate (ORR) for osi + bev and chem + bev was 15.8% (6 of 38) and 20.7% (12 of 58), respectively. The median PFS for osi + bev and che + bev was 7.0 and 4.9 months (HR 0.415 95%CI: 0.252–0.687 p = 0.001). The median OS for osi + bev and che + bev was 12.6 and 7.1 months (HR 0.430 95%CI: 0.266–0.696 p = 0.001). Multivariate analyses showed that no brain metastases and osi + bev treatment after osimertinib resistance correlated with longer PFS (p = 0.044, p = 0.001), while the median PFS of osimertinib less than 6 months (p = 0.021) had a detrimental effect on sequent treatment. Only osi + bev treatment was identified as an independent predictor of OS (p = 0.001). The most common adverse events (AEs) of grade ≥3 were hypertension (13.2%) and diarrhea (10.5%) in the osi + bevacizumab group. Neutropenia (24.1%) and thrombocytopenia (19%) were the most common grade ≥3 AEs in the che + bev group. The overall incidence of serious AEs (grade ≥3) was significantly higher in the chemotherapy plus bevacizumab group. Our study has shown the superiority of osi + bev compared to che + bev after the failure of osimertinib, making it a preferred option for patients with acquired resistance to osimertinib.

4504 Background: Treatment options for metastatic NET, including islet cell carcinoma (ICC) and carcinoid tumor (CT), are limited. These tumors frequently express vascular endothelial growth factor receptor-2 (VEGFR-2) and platelet derived growth factor receptor receptor-β (PDGFR-β). Sorafenib, a small-molecule inhibitor of the VEGFR-2 and PDGFR-β tyrosine kinase domains, is a rational targeted therapy to evaluate in NET. Methods: Eligibility criteria included: ECOG PS = 2, = 1 prior chemotherapy, good organ function and signed informed consent. Prior interferon and prior or concurrent octreotide at a stable dose were allowed. Pts unable to take oral medications, with uncontrolled hypertension or with symptomatic coronary artery disease were excluded. Pts received sorafenib 400 mg po BID. Primary endpoint was response by RECIST in two cohorts (ie, CT and ICC) using separate 2-stage phase II designs. Results: 93 pts were enrolled: (50 CT, 43 ICC). For pts evaluable for the primary endpoint, 4 of 41 (10%) CT pts and 4 of 41 (10%) ICC pts had a PR. There were 3 minor responses (MR = 20–29% decrease in sum of target lesion diameters) in CT pts and 9 MRs in ICC pts for PR+MR rate of 17% for CT pts and 32% for ICC pts. For pts evaluable, 6-month progression-free survival was observed in 8/20 CT and 14/23 ICC pts. Grade 3–4 toxicity occurred in 43% of pts, with skin (20%), GI (7%) and fatigue (9%) most common. Translational studies from tumor tissue will be presented. Conclusions: Sorafenib at 400 mg po BID has modest activity in metastatic neuroendocrine tumors, with frequent grade = 3 toxicity.

6013 Background: Interrupting the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) signaling pathway has shown promise in a variety of cancers and preclinical data has demonstrated possible synergy with platinums and taxanes. Treatment options for recurrent/metastatic HNSCC are limited. A study of cisplatin and docetaxel showed a response rate of 40% and 9.6 month median survival. Erlotinib, an EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitor, had a 4.3% response rate as single agent in HNSCC. Because of the possible synergy and efficacy, we proposed to study the combination of cisplatin, docetaxel and erlotinib in advanced HNSCC. Methods: Patients (pts) were required to have adequate performance status, measurable disease, no prior EGFR therapy, and may have received prior induction, concomitant or adjuvant chemotherapy, but not for recurrent/metastatic disease. Sites of disease included squamous cell head and neck sites excluding nasopharynx and sinus. Treatment included docetaxel 75 mg/m2 and cisplatin 75 mg/m2 intravenously every 3 weeks and erlotinib 150 mg by mouth daily. All agents were started on day 1. Pts were treated with growth factor support. Results: The trial has completed accrual to 50 pts. 47 pts are available for analysis at this time. Median age is 56 years (range 39–72). ECOG PS is 0, 1, 2 (6, 29, 2 pts). 43 pts are evaluable for efficacy. All responses were confirmed via RECIST. Complete responses have been in observed in 4 pts, partial responses in 25 pts and 12 pts have stable disease for an overall response rate of 67% and disease control rate of 95%. After a follow-up of 19 months, median overall survival was 11 months (8.61, 22.5, 95% CI) and progression free survival was 6.01 months (4.37, 8.25). 6 pts had grade 3/4 febrile neutropenia, 4 pts had grade 3/4 dehydration, 3 pts had grade 3 diarrhea, and 2 pts had grade 3/4 GI bleeding. The most common grade 1–2 toxicities were diarrhea, nausea, and rash. Conclusions: The combination of cisplatin, docetaxel and erlotinib is well tolerated and has very encouraging activity in recurrent/metastatic HNSCC. Tissues are being collected and analyzed for correlative markers including downstream EGFR pathway markers (p-akt, mek, k-ras). Final efficacy and biomarker results will be presented at the annual meeting. No significant financial relationships to disclose.

Epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR)-targeted therapy has become standard of care in advanced stages EGFR-mutant non-small cell lung cancer. Acquired resistance to first-line EGFR-tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) and subsequent disease progression is a common problem and mostly due to a secondary mutation (T790M) in EGFR. We report a case of a patient with EGFR-mutated lung adenocarcinoma who developed a complex resistance profile: T790M mutation, HER2 mutation and HER2 amplification after first-line EGFR-TKI. This patient was safely treated with a combination of osimertinib and trastuzumab and achieved a clinically meaningful and clear molecular response.This is the first reported case of acquired resistance to first-line EGFR-TKI based on three resistance mechanisms, treated with molecular targeted combination therapy.

72^ Background: Gastric cancer (GC) is the second leading cause of cancer death in Japan as well as globally. Effective treatment of GC remains a therapeutic challenge. Although in the AVAGAST trial, bevacizumab was found to offer no survival benefit. Angiogenesis continues to be the standard treatment for GC, and thus, clinical trials on many anti-angiogenic drugs have been conducted. TSU-68 (orantinib) is an oral, angiokinase inhibitor targeting the vascular endothelial growth factor receptor 2, platelet-derived growth factor receptor β, and fibroblast growth factor receptor 1. The present study evaluated the progression-free survival (PFS) and pharmacokinetics (PK) of TSU-68 in combination with Japanese standard S-1 and cisplatin (S-1/CDDP) in patients with advanced GC. Methods: In this open-label, multicenter, randomized, controlled, parallel-group, phase II trial, patients were randomized to Arm A (S-1/CDDP) or Arm B (TSU-68 plus S-1/CDDP). All patients received oral S-1 (40-60 mg/m2) twice daily for 21 days followed by a 14 day rest plus intravenous CDDP (60 mg/m2) on Day 8, repeated every 35 days. In Arm B pts received oral TSU-68 (400 mg/dose) alone, twice daily by addition 35 days. The primary endpoint was PFS. Results: In total, 93 patients were enrolled. For Arm A [male:female ratio], n=47 [35:11]; Arm B, n=45 [30:15]; the respective median age was 63.5 and 62.0 years. The median PFS was 7.0 and 6.8 months in Arms A and B, respectively (HR, 1.23; 95%CI, 0.74 to 2.05; P=0.425); the respective response rates were 56.5% and 62.2%. The most common grade 3/4 toxicities were neutropenia (Arms A and B, 34.8% and 31.1%) and hemoglobin (Arms A and B, 26.1% and 48.9%). There were no differences in other toxicities between the 2 arms, both treatments were tolerated, and no treatment-related deaths were observed. In the PK study, although Arm B had a significantly lower plasma exposure to FT, CDHP, and Oxo compared to Arm A, the exposure to 5-FU was not different between the 2 arms. The exposure to CDDP in Arm B was significantly but slightly lower than that in arm A. Conclusions: Thus,TSU-68 plus S-1/CDDP therapy did not prolong PFS of patients with advanced GC as compared with S-1/CDDP. Clinical trial information: JapicCTI-101327.

e20618 Background: Osimertinib has been emerged as the standard selection in EGFR T790M-positive NSCLC patients who failed prior treatment with EGFR TKIs. However, acquired resistance to osimertinib is a growing clinical challenge. Despite the significant antitumor activity of Chemoimmunotherapy (CIT) combinations in NSCLC, clinical benefit in patients with EGFR mutations has not been shown obviously. Our objective was to assess the effectiveness and tolerability of CIT for metastatic EGFR-mutant NSCLC patients with acquired resistance to Osimertinib. Methods: We conducted a retrospective study in patients with sensitizing EGFR-mutant NSCLC who were resistant to Osimertinib and received anti-PD1 immunotherapy combined with chemotherapy at Chinese PLA General Hospital. Progression-free survival (PFS), overall survival (OS), overall response rate (ORR), and toxicities were examined. Results: Between Oct 2015 and Nov 2018, 11 patients were available for analysis, 45.5% male, 45.5% ECOG PS 0-1, median age 54 years, all pts who failed treatment with Osimertinib had received previously targeted therapies. In this CIT combination group, 6 [54.5%] of 11 pts received pembrolizumab and 5[54.5%] of 11 pts received Nivolumab anti-PD1 therapy, 8 [72.7%] of 11 pts received mono-chemotherapy and 3 [27.3%] of 11 pts received platinum-based doublet chemotherapy. The median PFS was 7.47 months (95% CI 3.04 to 11.89). Despite Median OS was not reached, the OS rate at one year was 6 [54.5%] of 11. The ORR was 5 [45.5%] of 11. Treatment-related adverse events (TRAE) of grade 3 or higher were reported in 6 [54.5%] of 11 patients. The most common grade 3 or worse TRAEs were fatigue (3 [27.3%] of 11) and anemia (3 [27.3%] of 11); The following ≥Grade 3 TRAEs occurred once: decreased neutrophil count, acute kidney injury, gastrointestinal bleeding. One patient discontinued treatment because of immune-associated gastroenteritis. Conclusions: In metastatic NSCLC patients with activating EGFR mutation resistant to Osimertinib, our single institution real-world experience in Chemoimmunotherapy combination shows promising activity and acceptable toxicity profile. Given the small number of patients studied, further clinical trials are warranted.

e21082 Background: The clinical value of combined local radiation and epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR)-tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) and for medical inoperable and TKI-naïve early-stage lung adenocarcinoma patients with EGFR mutations is not yet determined. In this study, we aimed to pool multi-institutional data to compare the therapeutic effect of EGFR-TKI alone and combined radiation and TKI on the survival outcomes in this patient subgroup. Methods: 132 cases of medical non-operable stage I to III EGFR mutant lung adenocarcinoma were retrospectively reviewed based on data from 5 centers. Among the patients, 65 cases received combined radiation and EGFR-TKI therapy (R+TKI) (49.2%), while 67 cases had EGFR-TKI (50.8%) treatment alone. All patients were followed until death. Results: For R+TKI group, the median overall survival (OS) after primary therapy was 42.6 months, while that of the TKI alone group was 29.4 months (log-rank p < .001). In terms of progression-free survival (PFS), the median PFS in these two treatment groups were 24 months and 14.7 months respectively (log-rank p < .001). Multivariate analysis showed that R+TKI was independently associated with improved OS (adjusted HR: 0.420; 95% CI, 0.287 to 0.614; p < .001) and PFS (adjusted HR: 0.420; 95% CI, 0.291 to 0.605; p < .001) compared to TKI alone. Subgroup analysis confirmed the significant OS benefits in stage III patients and RFS benefits in stage II/III patients. Conclusions: Upfront radiation to primary sites with TKI to follow was a feasible option for patients with EGFR-mutant medical inoperable non-small-cell lung carcinoma (NSCLC) during first-line EGFR-TKI treatment, with significantly improved PFS and OS compared with TKI alone

PURPOSE: To establish the safety and tolerability of ZD1839 (Iressa), a selective epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) tyrosine kinase inhibitor, and to explore its pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic effects in patients with selected solid tumor types. PATIENTS AND METHODS: This was a phase I dose-escalating trial of oral ZD1839 150 mg/d to a maximum of 1,000 mg/d given once daily for at least 28 days. Patients with either advanced non–small-cell lung, ovarian, head and neck, prostate, or colorectal cancer were recruited. RESULTS: Eighty-eight patients received ZD1839 (150 to 1,000 mg/d). At 1,000 mg/d, five of 12 patients experienced dose-limiting toxicity (grade 3 diarrhea [four patients] and grade 3 somnolence [one patient]). The most frequent drug-related adverse events (AEs) were acne-like rash (64%) and diarrhea (47%), which were generally mild (grade 1/2) and reversible on cessation of treatment. No change in ZD1839 safety profile was observed with prolonged administration. Pharmacokinetic analysis showed steady-state exposure to ZD1839 in 98% of patients by day 7. Nineteen patients had stable disease and received ZD1839 for ≥ 3 months; seven of these patients remained on study drug for ≥ 6 months. Serial skin biopsies taken before treatment and at approximately day 28 revealed changes indicative of inhibition of the EGFR signaling pathway. CONCLUSION: ZD1839 was generally well tolerated, with manageable and reversible AEs at doses up to 600 mg/d and dose-limiting toxicity observed at 1,000 mg/d. ZD1839 treatment resulted in clinically meaningful disease stabilization across a range of tumor types and doses. Pharmacodynamic changes in skin confirmed inhibition of EGFR signaling, which was predicted from the mode of action of ZD1839.

Pazopanib is an oral multitargeted tyrozine kinase inhibitor that is used in advanced renal cancer in most countries of the world. Pazopanib inhibits tyrosine kinase receptors involved in tumor angiogenesis and proliferation, including VEGF, platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) and stem cell growth factor receptor c-Kit, which leads to inhibiting angiogenesis, growth and proliferation of tumor cells. In clinical trials, pazopanib demonstrated improvement of progression-free survival (PFS) versus placebo in previously untreated patients and patients treated with cytokines, as well as the absence of worsening PFS versus sunitinib in the first-line therapy of clear cell RCC in the good- and intermediate prognosis groups. In addition, pazopanib demonstrated a better safety profile than sunitinib. The results of use of pazopanib in broad clinical practice are consistent with data from randomized trials that confirms the high efficacy combined with good tolerability of this drug even in patients who do not meet the generally accepted criteria for the inclusion in clinical trials.
