This study investigated the efficacy and safety of pimasertib (MEK1/MEK2 inhibitor) versus dacarbazine (DTIC) in patients with untreated NRAS-mutated melanoma. Phase II, multicenter, open-label trial. Patients with unresectable, stage IIIc/IVM1 NRAS-mutated cutaneous melanoma were randomized 2:1 to pimasertib (60 mg; oral twice-daily) or DTIC (1000 mg/m2; intravenously) on Day 1 of each 21-day cycle. Patients progressing on DTIC could crossover to pimasertib. Primary endpoint: investigator-assessed progression-free survival (PFS); secondary endpoints: overall survival (OS), objective response rate (ORR), quality of life (QoL), and safety. Overall, 194 patients were randomized (pimasertib n = 130, DTIC n = 64), and 191 received treatment (pimasertib n = 130, DTIC n = 61). PFS was significantly improved with pimasertib versus DTIC (median 13 versus 7 weeks, respectively; hazard ratio (HR) 0.59, 95% confidence interval (CI) 0.42–0.83; p = 0.0022). ORR was improved with pimasertib (odds ratio 2.24, 95% CI 1.00–4.98; p = 0.0453). OS was similar between treatments (median 9 versus 11 months, respectively; HR 0.89, 95% CI 0.61–1.30); 64% of patients receiving DTIC crossed over to pimasertib. Serious adverse events (AEs) were more frequent for pimasertib (57%) than DTIC (20%). The most common treatment-emergent AEs were diarrhea (82%) and blood creatine phosphokinase (CPK) increase (68%) for pimasertib, and nausea (41%) and fatigue (38%) for DTIC. Most frequent grade ≥3 AEs were CPK increase (34%) for pimasertib and neutropenia (15%) for DTIC. Mean QoL scores (baseline and last assessment) were similar between treatments. Pimasertib has activity in NRAS-mutated cutaneous melanoma and a safety profile consistent with known toxicities of MEK inhibitors. Trial registration: ClinicalTrials.gov, NCT01693068.

5576 Background: Endometrial cancer (EC) is the most common gynecologic malignancy. Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) overexpression in EC correlates with poor outcome, thus targeting VEGF is a rational therapeutic approach. We have conducted a two-stage open-label phase II study in advanced EC with sunitinib, an oral tyrosine kinase inhibitor of multiple VEGF receptors. Methods: Eligible pts have recurrent or metastatic EC and have received up to 1 prior chemotherapy (CT) regimen for metastatic disease. Sunitinib is given at 50 mg daily (OD) for 4 consecutive weeks (wks) followed by 2 wks off. Dose could be reduced to 37.5 mg OD and then 25 mg OD in the setting of toxicity. Imaging is repeated every 12 wks. Primary objectives are objective response rate (ORR by RECIST) and rate of 6-month progression-free survival (PFS). If 1 or more responses occur in the first 15 evaluable pts, the study would continue to a second stage (total = 30 pts). Secondary objectives are time to progression (TTP), overall survival (OS), and safety. Results: We report the results of the first stage of this study. Sixteen pts have been treated (median age: 63; range 41–74) with 37 cycles of sunitinib (median 2; range: 1–7). Baseline ECOG PS was 0 (7 pts), 1 (8 pts), or 2 (1 pt). Histology was endometrioid (7 pts), serous (5 pts), clear cell (1 pt), or mixed/other (3 pts). Most pts had high-grade histology (G3: 8; G2: 4; G1: 2; GX: 2). Nine pts had prior adjuvant CT, 8 pts had 1 prior CT for advanced EC, 4 pts had prior hormones and 7 pts had prior radiotherapy. Partial response was achieved by 2 pts (ORR = 12.5%), and 2 other pts had a best response of stable disease; 3 of these pts remained progression-free > 6 months. Median TTP = 2.5 months (95% CI: 2.47-NR), and median OS = 6.2 months (95% CI: 5.1-NR). Grade 3/4 adverse events (AE) in >10% of pts were fatigue (7 pts, 44%) and hypertension (5 pts, 31%). Dose reduction was required for 11 of 16 pts (69%). Two pts were inevaluable after receiving <2 cycles due to AE (grade 4 hyponatremia; grade 3 fatigue) and 1 other pt has yet to complete 2 cycles. Conclusions: Sunitinib shows preliminary activity in EC. This trial will proceed to a second stage of accrual to further explore the efficacy and safety of sunitinib in advanced EC.

9074 Background: BRAFV600 mutations occur in 1–2% of pts with NSCLC. We previously reported the efficacy of vemurafenib, a selective BRAFV600 inhibitor, in BRAF mutation-positive non-melanoma tumors (VE-BASKET study). We now present final data for the expanded NSCLC cohort. Methods: This open-label, histology-independent, phase 2 study included 6 prespecified cohorts (including NSCLC) plus one ‘all-others’ cohort. Pts received vemurafenib (960 mg bid) until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. The primary endpoint was objective response rate (RECIST v1.1). Secondary endpoints included best overall response rate, duration of response (DoR), progression-free survival (PFS), and overall survival (OS). Because the pre-specified clinical benefit endpoint was met in the initial NSCLC cohort, the cohort was expanded. ClinicalTrials.gov identifier NCT01524978. Results: Database lock was 12 Jan 2017. Of 208 pts enrolled at 25 centers worldwide, 62 pts had NSCLC: median age 65 years; 56% male; 13% had no prior systemic therapy; 50% had ≥2 prior therapies. Responses were seen in previously treated and untreated pts (Table). The most common all-grade adverse event (AE) was nausea (40%); grade 3–5 AEs included keratoacanthoma (15%) and squamous cell carcinoma of the skin (15%). Six pts discontinued vemurafenib due to AEs; two had non-treatment-related fatal AEs. Conclusions: Vemurafenib showed evidence of encouraging efficacy in pts with NSCLC with BRAFV600 mutation, with prolonged PFS in previously untreated pts; median OS was not estimable due to ongoing responses. The safety profile of vemurafenib was similar to that seen in melanoma studies. Our results suggest a role for BRAF inhibition in NSCLC with BRAF mutations. Clinical trial information: NCT01524978.

102 Background: This phase II study aimed to investigate the safety and efficacy of XP compared to SP in the first-line treatment of HER2 negative AGC. Methods: Patients were randomly assigned to receive either SP (S-1 at 40–60 mg twice daily for 21 days plus cisplatin at 60 mg/ m2 on day 8, every 5 weeks) or XP (capecitabine 1,000 mg/m2 twice daily for 14 days plus cisplatin 80 mg/m2 on day 1, every 3 weeks). Primary endpoint was response rate (RR), and secondary endpoints were progression-free survival (PFS), overall survival (OS), time to treatment failure (TTF), and adverse events. Results: 84 eligible patients were randomly assigned to receive SP ( N = 41) or XP ( N = 43). No statistical difference was observed in overall RR between the SP and XP groups [51.2% (95% CI, 35.1% to 67.1%) vs. 53.5% (95% CI, 37.7% to 68.8%), P = 1.000]. Despite not significant, however, SP vs. XP showed a trend toward better PFS [median, 5.9 months vs. 4.1 months; hazard ratio (HR), 0.763; 95% CI, 0.462 to 1.259; P = .284] and OS (median, 13.5 months vs. 10.0 months; HR, 0.776; 95% CI, 0.485 to 1.244; P = .290). This trend in the SP vs. XP comparison was more pronounced in TTF (median, 4.5 months vs. 3.1 months; HR, 0.651; 95% CI, 0.421 to 1.006; P = .052). Common grade 3 to 4 hematological toxicities were neutropenia and anemia (SP group, 23% and 23%; XP group, 35% and 28%). Grade 3-4 anorexia and hyponatremia were more frequently seen in the XP group (31% and 16%) compared to the SP group (13% and 5%). Treatment-related deaths occurred in one patient (2.3%) in the XP group. Conclusions: XP failed to demonstrate the superior efficacy over SP. Higher incidence of severe toxicities by XP suggests SP as the standard 1st line chemotherapy for HER2 negative AGC in Japan. Clinical trial information: UMIN000006755.

5001 Background: The oral PARP inhibitor olaparib has shown antitumor activity in pts with SOC. Our multicenter study compared the efficacy of (Arm A) olaparib capsules plus P/C for 6 cycles then maintenance olaparib monotherapy vs (Arm B) P/C alone for 6 cycles and no further therapy in pts with PSR SOC (NCT01081951). Methods: Pts received 6 x 21-day(d) cycles of olaparib (200 mg bid, d1–10/21) + P (175 mg/m2 iv, d1) + C (AUC4 iv, d1), then olaparib monotherapy as maintenance (400 mg bid, continuous) (Arm A), or 6 x 21d cycles of P (175 mg/m2 iv, d1) + C (AUC6 iv, d1) then no further therapy (Arm B), until progression. Randomization (1:1) was stratified by number of platinum treatments and platinum-free interval. Primary endpoint: progression-free survival (PFS) by central review (RECIST 1.1). Secondary endpoints: overall survival (OS), objective response rate (ORR), safety. Archival tissue was collected where available for analysis of biomarker correlation. Results: Of 162 pts randomized (n=81 per arm), 156 received treatment (Arm A, n=81; Arm B, n=75) and 121 began the maintenance/no further therapy phase (Arm A, n=66; Arm B, n=55). Olaparib + P/C (AUC4) followed by maintenance olaparib showed a significant improvement in PFS vs P/C (AUC6) alone (HR = 0.51, 95% CI 0.34, 0.77; P=0.0012; median = 12.2 vs 9.6 months). OS data are immature (total events: 14%). ORR was similar for Arm A and Arm B (64 vs 58%). Most common AEs during the combination phase were alopecia (74 vs 59%), nausea (69 vs 57%) and fatigue (64 vs 57%) for Arm A vs Arm B, respectively. Pts with grade ≥3 AEs (65 vs 57%), serious AEs (SAEs: 15 vs 21%) and AEs leading to treatment discontinuation (19 vs 16%) were similar for Arm A vs Arm B. Most common AEs during maintenance/no further therapy were nausea (50 vs 6%) and vomiting (29 vs 7%). 29 vs 16% of pts had grade ≥3 AEs, 9 vs 7% had SAEs and 8% vs N/A discontinued due to AEs in the olaparib vs no treatment arms, respectively. There were no fatal AEs. Conclusions: In pts with PSR SOC, olaparib plus P/C (AUC4) followed by olaparib 400 mg bid monotherapy maintenance treatment resulted in a significant improvement in PFS vs P/C (AUC6) alone.

6029 Background: PARTNER was a multicenter, randomized phase II estimation study evaluating 1stEline tx of R/M SCCHN with doc/cis ± pmab. Methods: Patients (pts) were randomized 1:1 to doc/cis with pmab (Arm 1) or doc/cis alone (Arm 2). Arm 1 received 9 mg/kg pmab on day 1 of each 21-day cycle, and all pts received 1stEline doc/cis both at 75 mg/m2 on day 1 for up to 6 cycles. In Arm 1, pts could receive pmab monotherapy upon completion of 6 cycles of doc/cis until disease progression (PD). In Arm 2, pts could receive pmab as 2ndEline monotherapy upon PD. The primary endpoint was progression-free survival (PFS); secondary endpoints included overall survival (OS), objective response rate (ORR), and safety. HPV status was determined using p16 INK IHC. No formal hypothesis was tested. Results: Baseline characteristics were balanced between arms. Of 103 pts, HPV status was evaluable in 66 (64%); 29% were HPV positive. Efficacy results are shown (Table). Worst grade 3/4 adverse events (AEs) were 73% in Arm 1 vs 56% in Arm 2. Conclusions: Median PFS was increased in both arms over historical doublet cytotoxic chemotherapy. PFS and ORR were higher in the pmab arm in the overall population, in the HPV positive (n=19) group, and in the HPV negative (n=47) group. There was an increase in grade 3/4 AEs with this regimen. The crossover design, with 57% of Arm 2 pts receiving pmab as 2ndEline monotherapy, confounds interpretation of OS. Clinical trial information: NCT00454779. [Table: see text]

102 Background: Combination irinotecan and cetuximab is approved for irinotecan-refractory mCRC; it is unknown if the addition of bevacizumab would improve outcomes. We studied the efficacy and safety of CBI compared with CI in patients (pts) with RAS wildtype, irinotecan-refractory mCRC. Methods: In this multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled phase II trial, pts with RAS wildtype mCRC and no prior anti-epidermal growth factor receptor therapy who failed at least 1 irinotecan-based chemotherapy regimen and received bevacizumab in at least 1 prior line of therapy were randomized 1:1 to irinotecan 180 mg/m2 (or previously tolerated dose), cetuximab 500 mg/m2, and bevacizumab 5 mg/kg vs CI every 2 wks until disease progression, intolerable toxicity, or withdrawal of consent. The primary endpoint was progression free survival (PFS). Multivariable Cox proportional hazard models stratified by number of prior lines of therapy and bevacizumab receipt in immediate prior line were performed. Secondary endpoints included overall survival (OS), objective response rate (ORR), and adverse events (AEs). The study was closed early in January 2018 for reasons related to accrual and funding after enrollment of 36 out of a planned 60 pts. Results: Between July 2015 and December 2017, 36 pts were randomized (19 to CBI, 17 to CI). 34 pts (94%) were treated with 2 or more prior chemotherapy regimens. Baseline characteristics were similar between arms. Median PFS was 9.7 vs 5.5 mo for CBI and CI arms, respectively (log-rank P =0.76; multivariable HR = 0.64; 95% CI, 0.25-1.66). Median OS was 19.7 vs 10.2 mo for CBI and CI (log-rank P= 0.04; multivariable HR = 0.41; 95% CI, 0.15-1.09). ORR was 37% for CBI vs 12% for CI ( P =0.13). Grade 3 or higher AEs occurred in 47% of pts receiving CBI vs 35% for CI ( P =0.46). Conclusions: In this prematurely discontinued trial, there were non-significant increases in PFS and ORR and a statistically significant 9.5 mo increase in median OS in favor of CBI compared to CI. Further investigation of CBI for treatment of irinotecan-refractory mCRC is warranted. Clinical trial information: NCT02292758.

PURPOSE Camrelizumab is an antibody against programmed death protein 1. We assessed the activity and safety of camrelizumab plus apatinib, a tyrosine kinase inhibitor of vascular endothelial growth factor receptor-2, in patients with advanced cervical cancer. METHODS This multicenter, open-label, single-arm, phase II study enrolled patients with advanced cervical cancer who progressed after at least one line of systemic therapy. Patients received camrelizumab 200 mg every 2 weeks and apatinib 250 mg once per day. The primary end point was objective response rate (ORR) assessed by investigators per RECIST version 1.1. Key secondary end points were progression-free survival (PFS), overall survival (OS), duration of response, and safety. RESULTS Forty-five patients were enrolled and received treatment. Median age was 51.0 years (range, 33-67 years), and 57.8% of patients had previously received two or more lines of chemotherapy for recurrent or metastatic disease. Ten patients (22.2%) had received bevacizumab. Median follow-up was 11.3 months (range, 1.0-15.5 months). ORR was 55.6% (95% CI, 40.0% to 70.4%), with two complete and 23 partial responses. Median PFS was 8.8 months (95% CI, 5.6 months to not estimable). Median duration of response and median OS were not reached. Treatment-related grade 3 or 4 adverse events (AEs) occurred in 71.1% of patients, and the most common AEs were hypertension (24.4%), anemia (20.0%), and fatigue (15.6%). The most common potential immune-related AEs included grade 1-2 hypothyroidism (22.2%) and reactive cutaneous capillary endothelial proliferation (8.9%). CONCLUSION Camrelizumab plus apatinib had promising antitumor activity and manageable toxicities in patients with advanced cervical cancer. Larger randomized controlled trials are warranted to validate our findings.

6022 Background: Dasatinib is a potent inhibitor of src-family kinases, ephA2, PDGFR, Abl, and c-kit. A single-center, open-label, phase II trial was conducted to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK), and efficacy of dasatinib in recurrent or metastatic HNSCC. Methods: Pts with measurable disease by RECIST, who received 0 or 1 prior regimen for recurrent or metastatic HNSCC with an ECOG performance status 0–1 and tumor tissue appropriate for IHC and FISH were eligible. Dasatinib 100 mg bid was given for 28-day cycles. Primary endpoints were 12-wk progression-free survival (PFS) and objective response rate (ORR). Pts who took at least 1 dose of dasatinib and who died or left study before 12 wks were counted as progressive disease (PD). A 2 stage design, closure after accrual of 15 pts was required if PFS was 45% or less and ORR was 0. Otherwise, planned accrual was 35. Response was assessed at 4 and 12 wks. PK was studied in pts receiving dasatinib per PEG. Biomarkers relevant to Src pathway were planned in tissue and blood. Results: Fifteen pts were accrued. To date, 13 pts are evaluable for response, and 15 pts for toxicity. No grade 3/4 hematologic toxicities were noted. Grade 2–4 nonhematologic toxicities(n): pleural effusion(2), nausea/vomiting(2), dehydration(1), diarrhea(1), dyspnea(1). Toxicity led to hospitalization of 4 pts and drug discontinuation in 5 pts. ORR was 0. One pt was stable at 12 wks (PFS: 7.6%). This pt stopped drug at 15 wks due to toxicity, but also had PD. One pt died on study and cause was deemed unlikely related. Conclusions: Dosed at 100mg bid, dasatinib led to a characteristic toxicity profile in this pt population. Rates of hospitalization and discontinuation for toxicity were fairly high. Final efficacy parameters are pending evaluation of 2 pts. Evaluation of PK and tissue/blood biomarkers is ongoing. No significant financial relationships to disclose.

2039 Background: STUPP regimen is now the standard treatment for newly diagnosed GBM, while the effectiveness is limited. This study assessed the efficacy and safety of anlotinib, a multitarget tyrosine kinase inhibitor, combined with the STUPP regimen in treating these patients. Methods: This is a phase II, multicenter, open-label, single-arm trial (NCT04119674). Thirty-three patients (17 males and 16 females) were enrolled from 8 hospitals in China between January 2019 and February 2021. Inclusion criterion included 1) newly diagnosed histologically confirmed glioblastoma (WHO grade IV), 2) 2-6 weeks (wks) after surgery with healed incision, 3) 18-70 years old, 4) KPS≥60, 5) at least one measurable lesion according to RANO criteria, 6) radiotherapy (RT), chemotherapy, immunotherapy or biotherapy naïve. All patients received 54-60 Gy radiation (1.8-2.0 Gy per fraction, five days per week) concurrently with temozolomide (TMZ, 75mg/m2, orally, QD) and anlotinib (8mg, orally, QD, d1-14/3wks). Adjuvant therapy started four weeks after RT completion, including six cycles of TMZ (150-200mg/m², orally, d1-5/4wks) and eight cycles of anlotinib (8mg, orally, QD, d1-14/3wks). Patients who completed adjuvant therapy were administrated anlotinib continuously until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. The primary endpoint was progression-free survival (PFS). Safety assessment was done in patients who received at least one dose of study agent. Results: The median age is 52 (range 32-69) years. Analyses included data collected through February 6, 2021. The median treatment duration was 6.5 months. The median PFS was not reached, and the median overall survival (OS) was 17.4 months [95%CI 11.6-23.2]. The 1-year PFS and OS rate was 84.0% and 100.0%, respectively. Tumor response occurred in 21 patients, 63.6% (21/33) objective response (CR/PR), and 24.2% (8/33) patients had stable disease (SD).The clinical benefit rate (CBR), defined as the proportion of patients who achieved durable disease control (CR/PR/SD) more than six months, was 57.6% (19/33). Hypertension (6.1%) was the most common ≥grade 3 adverse event. No treatment related death occurred in this study through the last follow-up. Overall, toxicities are mild and manageable. Conclusions: Anlotinib combined with the STUPP regimen is efficacious and well-tolerated in newly diagnosed GBM patients. Clinical trial information: NCT04119674.

Objectives: Previously, no therapeutic agent has been known to improve the overall survival compared with placebo in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), who have progressed after sorafenib. In this patient population, regorafenib was first demonstrated to confer a survival benefit in the RESORCE trial, and subsequently it was approved as a second-line treatment for patients with advanced HCC. An open-label expanded access program (EAP) of regorafenib was implemented for compassionate use. We investigated the efficacy and safety of regorafenib based on our experience of the RESORCE trial and the EAP. Methods: Data from 5 patients from the RESORCE trial and 6 from the EAP were analyzed retrospectively. All patients had tolerated prior sorafenib and were progressing during sorafenib treatment. Results: The median progression-free survival was 9.2 months (95% CI 2.3-16.1). One patient achieved a partial response and 7 achieved stable disease. The objective response rate was 9.1%, and the disease control rate was 72.7%. No treatment-associated mortalities were observed. Grade 3 hypophosphatemia was observed in 2 patients, grade 2 anorexia was observed in 5 patients, and grade 3 neutropenia was observed in 2 patients. Grade 2 and grade 3 thrombocytopenia were observed in 2 and 3 patients, respectively. All treatment-related adverse events were improved by reduction or interruption of regorafenib. Five patients showed decreased serum albumin levels. Conclusion: Sorafenib and regorafenib sequential therapy presents a safe and effective treatment option for patients with advanced HCC.
