    Abstract: Neuroendocrine tumors (NETs) arise from a variety of anatomic sites and share the capacity for production of hormones and vasoactive peptides. Because of their perceived rarity, NETs have not historically been a focus of rigorous clinical research. However, the diagnosed incidence of NETs has been increasing, and the estimated prevalence in the United States exceeds 100,000 individuals. The recent completion of several phase III studies, including those evaluating octreotide, sunitinib, and everolimus, has demonstrated that rigorous evaluation of novel agents in this disease is both feasible and can lead to practice-changing outcomes. The NET Task Force of the National Cancer Institute GI Steering Committee convened a clinical trials planning meeting to identify key unmet needs, develop appropriate study end points, standardize clinical trial inclusion criteria, and formulate priorities for future NET studies for the US cooperative group program. Emphasis was placed on the development of well-designed clinical trials with clearly defined efficacy criteria. Key recommendations include the evaluation of pancreatic NET separately from NETs of other sites and the exclusion of patients with poorly differentiated histologies from trials focused on low-grade histologies. Studies evaluating novel agents for the control of hormonal syndromes should avoid somatostatin analog washout periods when possible and should include quality-of-life end points. Because of the observed long survival after progression of many patients, progression-free survival is recommended as a feasible and relevant primary end point for both phase III studies and phase II studies where a delay in progression is expected in the absence of radiologic responses.

    Abstract: 409 Background: Cytoreductive surgery (CRS – gastrectomy combined with metastasectomy) for non-palliative indications is controversial for patients with metastatic gastric adenocarcinoma (MGA). We hypothesized that CRS in addition to systemic chemotherapy is associated with an improved survival when compared to patients with MGA receiving chemotherapy alone. Methods: Patients with MGA who received systemic chemotherapy between 2004-2016 were identified using the National Cancer Database (NCDB). Nearest neighbor 1:1 propensity score matching of demographic, tumor-related and treatment-related factors was used to create comparable groups. Overall survival (OS) was compared between subgroups using Kaplan-Meier analyses. Immortal bias analysis was performed among those that survived at least 90 days. Results: We identified 29,728 chemotherapy-treated patients who were divided into 4 subgroups: No surgery (NS, n = 25,690), metastasectomy alone (n = 1170), gastrectomy alone (n = 2248) and CRS (n = 620) with a median OS of 8.6, 10.9, 14.8 and 16.3 months, respectively (p 〈 0.001). Compared to patients who underwent no surgery, patients who underwent CRS were younger (58.9±13.4 vs. 62.0±13.1 years), had lower proportion of disease involving multiple sites (5.0% vs. 26.2%), and were more likely to have clinically occult disease (cM0 58.9% vs. 7.3%) - all p 〈 0.001. OS for propensity matched patients who underwent CRS (n = 490) was longer than NS (16.3 vs. 8.8 months, p 〈 0.001), including those with clinical M1 stage (n = 203) in both unmatched and propensity matched (median OS 19.7 vs. 8.6 months, p 〈 0.001) cohorts. On Cox regression model using the matched data, the hazard ratio for CRS vs. NS was 0.80 (95%CI 0.76-0.84). In the immortal matched cohort, the corresponding median OS was 16.7 vs. 9.7 months, p 〈 0.001. Conclusions: CRS in addition to systemic chemotherapy may be associated with an OS benefit in a selected group of patients with metastatic gastric adenocarcinoma. Suboptimal matching for tumor burden is our major limitation. In contrast to studies that focus on gastrectomy alone in the setting of MGA, this study highlights the role of CRS among patients receiving systemic chemotherapy.

    Abstract: Current surveillance imaging and tumor markers lack sensitivity for the early detection of recurrence in GI cancers. This study critically evaluates the current literature on the role of sequential measurement of circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) before and after curative resection in informing recurrence. METHODS A systematic search using a predefined, registered protocol was conducted for studies published between January 2010 and May 2020. Included studies described patients with GI cancers treated with curative-intent surgical resection and measurement of ctDNA both before and after surgery. Patients were divided into three groups on the basis of the presence or absence of ctDNA at these time points. The primary outcome was recurrence-free survival (RFS). RESULTS The search yielded 3,873 articles; five met the inclusion criteria and collectively evaluated 57 patients. Pooled median RFS was 62 months (interquartile range 19 to not reached). Although median RFS was not reached in group 1 (– to –) or group 2 (+ to –), median RFS in group 3 (+ to +) was 15 months (interquartile range 9.6-60.4 months). Cox hazard ratio was 4.46 (95% CI, 1.17 to 16.99; P = .028) between group 1 and group 2, and 10.47 (95% CI, 2.91 to 37.74; P 〈 .001) between group 2 and group 3. CONCLUSION Detectable ctDNA, either preoperatively or postoperatively, and its persistence after curative surgery are associated with a greater risk of recurrence and decreased RFS in GI cancers. Thus, perioperative measurement of ctDNA may be a useful postoperative risk stratification tool and guide additional therapies.

    Abstract: 312 Background: Surgical resection plus adjuvant gemcitabine or 5-FU is standard therapy for resectable PDAC. Infusional 5-FU, leucovorin, irinotecan and oxaliplatin (FOLFIRINOX) has substantial activity in metastatic PDAC. Efficacy and tolerability of peri-operative FOLFIRINOX in resectable PDAC is unknown. Methods: Patients (pts) with ECOG PS 0/1 and resectable PDAC confirmed by multidisciplinary review received 4 cycles of mFOLFIRINOX (mFFX)(oxaliplatin 85 mg/m2, irinotecan 180 mg/m2, leucovorin 400 mg/m2 day 1, 5-FU 2400 mg/m2 x 48 hours, peg-filgrastim 6 mg SQ day 3) pre- and 4 cycles post- surgery. Results: 21/21 enrolled pts started therapy (median age: 63 (47-78), 81% ECOG 0). 20/21 pts completed 4 cycles of preoperative mFFX (1 withdrew for toxicity), 17/21 pts had successful surgical resection (3 had disease noted in the liver at surgery) and 14/21 completed 4 cycles of postoperative mFFX (2 pts expired prior to postoperative mFFX within 90 days of surgery -1 from an M.I. and 1 from a GI bleed; 1 pt had excessive toxicity after cycle 5). Radiographic response by RECIST following preoperative therapy was 1 CR, 3 PR, 16 SD, 0 PD. Of the 17 (81%) patients undergoing curative-intent surgery, 16/17 (94%) had R0 resections. Treatment effect was seen in 10/17 specimens with 1 pathologic CR. Doses were modified per protocol in 30% pts preoperatively (neuropathy 1; thrombocytopenia 2; neutropenia 3; diarrhea 2) and 26% postoperatively (neuropathy 3; diarrhea 3; allergic reaction 1). Grade III and IV adverse events were observed in 23% and 14% pts (overlapping) in the preoperative, and 26% and 0.06% pts in the postoperative phases. 18 pts are alive with a median follow up of 17.3 months. Conclusions: 17/21 (81%) pts completed neoadjuvant mFFX and surgical resection. 14/21 (66%) pts completed all planned therapy. Radiographic responses were rare but efficacy is suggested by the high R0 resection rate: 16/17 (94%) in pts undergoing resection, and 16/21 (76%) pts overall. Toxicity was manageable and within the expected range. 8 cycles of mFFX is a feasible and tolerable peri-operative regimen in pts with resectable PDAC and ECOG PS 0/1. Definitive assessment of efficacy will require longer follow up and larger studies. Clinical trial information: NCT01660711.

    Abstract: 356 Background: 1-yr OS is ~40% for HER2- & ~55% for HER2+ advanced (aGEA). Targeted therapies (tx) have had limited benefit due to molecular heterogeneity. Methods: This phase 2a study of a personalized tx strategy (PTS) enrolled newly diagnosed aGEA pts who then received up to 3 cytotoxic (cx) lines: first line (1L) 5FU + oxaliplatin, 2L 5FU + irinotecan & 3L 5FU + docetaxel. Baseline biomarker profiling (BP) was mandated on primary & metastatic tumors (PT/MT) & progressive disease points (PD1, PD2). Assigned antibody (AN) was added to cx by a predefined prioritized tx algorithm (PTA) (Table) based on the MT BP. At PD1, pts went to 2L cx + initial AN. Upon results of PD1 BP, pts changed AN only if BP evolved per PTA. The same was done at PD2. If AN was unavailable (MET/FGFR2), these pts were tx’d with cx alone (not ITT). The 1 0 endpt was 1-yr OS of the PTS. Assuming historical 50% 1-yr OS for all aGEA pts, 68 pts tx’d per protocol PTS provided 80% power to detect an HR=0.67, corresponding to a 1-yr OS rate of 63% (under exponential survival), using a 1-sided test at the 0.10 alpha level. 2 0 endpts: safety, feasibility, PT/MT BP discordance at baseline & over tx line, & OS/PFS/ORR by tx line & BP group. Results: Between 6/2015-5/2019, 80 consecutive pts enrolled at 3 sites: ECOG PS 0-2 40/33/7; Male 80%; median age 60, range 28-81, peritoneal disease 36%. AN assigned by PTA at 1L & 1-yr OS are shown (Table). PT/MT discordance was 37%. Of 68 pts treated by PTS ITT, the 1-yr OS was 69.4% (p 〈 0.001). The mOS was 16.4m [95%CI 13.8-20.8]. Any grade 〉 3 tox thru all 3 tx lines was seen in 32% of pts. 2 0 analyses will be presented. Conclusions: PANGEA was feasible & met its 1 0 efficacy objective with observed 1-yr OS of 69.4%, meriting a randomized study. Clinical trial information: NCT02213289 .

    Abstract: 4050 Background: Complete resection (R0) and pathologic response grade (PRG) correlate with long-term GEA outcome. FOLFIRINOX demonstrated efficacy in advanced GEA; gFOLFIRINOX improved tolerability. We evaluated R0, PRG and tolerability in this pilot P study. Methods: Gastric body (GB) + esophagogastric (EGJ) GEA patients (pts) with ≥T3Nx or TxN+ were enrolled & treated with 4 pre + 4 postoperative biweekly cycles of gFOLFIRINOX (5-FU 2400mg/m2 over 46 hrs; oxaliplatin 85mg/m2; iri: 180mg/m2 for UGT1A1 genotype 6/6, 135mg/m2 for 6/7, 90mg/m2 for 7/7) (+ trastuzumab (T) 6mg/kg then 4mg/kg for HER2+) with prophylactic peg-filgastrim. 1°endpoint R0 resection required 36 pts to assess for a 90% R0 rate (intention to treat (ITT)) with 90% power + 0.05 alpha; ≥30/36 R0 considered positive. Co-1°endpoint was PRG (Becker); 36 pts provided 85% power with 0.05 alpha for a complete (pCR G1a) rate of 16%. 2°endpoints were safety/toxicity, PET response, & R0/PRG by tumor site, histologic subtype, HER2 status, & UGT1A1 genotype. We report efficacy and toxicity data from the neoadjuvant (Neo) portion of the study; postop data & survival outcomes will be presented at the meeting. Results: 4 sites enrolled 36 ITT pts between 2/2014-8/2018; 75% male, median age 66 (range 27-85). All pts completed all 4 cycles of Neo therapy: 10% had any dose reduction of iri (16%/0%/25% by genotype 6/6, 6/7, 7/7); any G3+ toxicity occurred in 35% of pts (32% 6/6, 29% 6/7, 75% 7/7). G3+ toxicity in ≥5% of pts: diarrhea (17.5%; 6/6 21%, 6/7 11%, 7/7 25%), anemia (5%), vomiting (5%). Efficacy is shown in the Table. Of pts going to surgery, both R1 resections were GB linitus. PRG1(a+b) was achieved in 36% of ITT pts, 46% of intestinal type histology. Conclusions: Neo gFOLFIRINOX was tolerable with surrogate efficacy comparable to FLOT. Clinical trial information: NCT02366819. [Table: see text]

    Abstract: 6023 Background: We present results of an open label phase II study of the mTOR inhibitor Everolimus in patients (pts) with RAIR TC. Methods: Pts with metastatic, incurable RAIR TC who had shown radiographic progression within 6 months prior to enrollment received Everolimus 10mg orally once daily. Responses were monitored by CT's every two months. The primary endpoint was progression free survival. Sequential biopsies were obtained in selected pts. Results: Enrollment to the differentiated TC (DTC) cohort finished in Jan 2013 and included 33 pts, among them 11 with Hurthle cell TC. Exploratory cohorts enrolled 10 pts with medullary [MTC] and 5 with anaplastic [ATC] with 2 added openings remaining for ATC. For the DTC cohort, median time on study to date is 10 months (mo) ( 〈 1-23+). 31 pts are evaluable at this time. PFS in the DTC cohort by Kaplan-Meier (K-M) analysis is 16.0 mo (95%CI 10-NR). Currently, disease stability for 6 and 12 mo or more was achieved in 18 and 10/31 pts, respectively, 11 pts remain on study. Median OS was not reached but 1 year survival by K-M analysis was 76%. One pt achieved a PR. 3 pts with DTC underwent sequential biopsies which revealed activation of autophagy while markers for apoptosis were not detected. Among 10 MTC pts, one achieved a PR and 9 pts had stable disease for 6 mo or more (6-33+). Among 5 ATC pts, 3 progressed, one has ongoing disease stability for 5 mo. One patient achieved a complete response that lasted for 18 mo and whole exome sequencing revealed somatic loss of function mutation affecting the Tuberous Sclerosis 2 (TSC2) protein, a negative regulator of mTOR activity [TSC2 (Q1178*) and FLCN (R17fs)]. Most common treatment-related adverse events were as anticipated and included fatigue, stomatitis and infections. Grade (gr) 3 events included infection 5, weight loss 3, leukopenia 3, thrombocytopenia 3, fatigue 3, hypophosphatemia 2, stomatitis 2, pneumonitis 1 and thrombosis 1pts. One pt had gr 4 hypercholesterinemia and one pt had gr 4 leukopenia. Conclusions: Everolimus has significant anti-tumor activity in pts with advanced TC. Activation of autophagy could account for high rate of disease stability. Sequencing may identify mechanistic basis and predictive markers for treatment response. Clinical trial information: NCT00936858.
