The Impact

5526 Background: In an open-label, multicenter, randomized phase III study comparing the combination of trabectedin and PLD to PLD alone in patients with relapsed ovarian cancer, the combination demonstrated significantly improved progression free survival and response rates, manageable non-cumulative toxicity, and fewer PLD-associated adverse events. We studied the impact of the combination of trabectedin with PLD on the quality of life (QoL)/patient-reported outcomes (PRO) evaluated as part of the trial. Methods: QoL/PRO questionnaires, EORTC-QLQ C30, OV28, and EQ-5D were completed by patients at screening and on Day 1 of every other treatment cycle starting with Cycle 1, and at the end-of-treatment visit. Global health status/QoL, fatigue, rain subscales from QLQ C30, and abdominal pain/GI symptoms scale from OV28 were chosen a priori for primary analyses. Other scales of the three questionnaires were analyzed on a supportive basis. Results: A total of 672 patients were randomized. 663 (98%) completed at least the baseline questionnaires. Median cycles of treatment was 6 (131 days) for the combination arm and 5 (143 days) for the monotherapy arm. Mixed effects models (using a covariance structure of AR[1]) predicting the score at baseline and follow-up scores as a function of treatment, days after baseline, and interaction between treatment and days after baseline showed no significant differences between the treatment arms for any of the prespecified scales. Similar analyses of other scales, including EQ-5D Health Index scores and Health State on the Visual Analog Scale, support the findings. Conclusions: The addition of trabectedin to PLD results in superior efficacy in patients with relapsed ovarian cancer, with no added decrement to overall health status as assessed by PRO.

5551 Background: Circulating tumor cells (CTC) have demonstrated predictive and prognostic value among patients with metastatic breast, colorectal, and prostate cancer. In a phase III study of pegylated liposomal doxorubicin (PLD) with trabectedin (T) vs PLD for relapsed ovarian cancer, we assessed the affect of CTCs on progression free survival, (PFS) and overall survival (OS). Methods: CTCs were isolated from peripheral blood (10 mLs) using the CellSearch system and reagents (Veridex). A CTC is defined as EpCAM+, cytokeratin+, CD45-, and is positive for the nuclear stain DAPI. The normal reference range for CellSearch is < 2 CTC/7.5 mLs of blood. Hazard ratios adjusted for known prognostic factors were estimated by Cox regression. Results: 216 subjects had baseline CTC measurements of which 111 (51.4%) were randomized to the PLD+T arm; 143/216 patients (66.2%) were platinum sensitive. Thirty-one/216 patients (14.4%) had 2 or more CTCs detected prior to the start of therapy (range 2–566). Univariate Cox regression analyses indicated that patient's > 2 CTCs prior to therapy have 1.89 (p = 0.003) and 2.06 (p = 0.003) fold higher risk for progression and death respectively. Multivariate analyses that include baseline CTC, baseline CA125, platinum sensitivity status, largest diameter lesion, number of tumor lesions, ECOG PS, age, tumor histology, tumor grade and prior taxane show that patients with elevated baseline CTC have 1.58 (p = 0.058) and 1.54 (p = 0.096) fold higher risk for progression and death respectively. Conclusions: Results from this study indicate that although CTC detection in blood from relapsed recurrent ovarian cancer patients is relatively low, elevated numbers of CTCs imparts an unfavorable prognosis for patients. Multivariate analysis indicates that CTCs have prognostic value that is independent of established factors and thus provides a clinically useful tool for assessing prognosis in this difficult to treat patient population.
