    Abstract: Introduction: Abiraterone acetate plus prednisone (AA+P) has shown to significantly improve survival. COSMiC, a Canadian Observational Study in Metastatic Cancer of the Prostate, set out to prospectively amass real-world data on metastatic castrate-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) patients managed with AA+P in Canada. Here, we report their patient-reported outcomes (PROs). Methods: After a median followup of 67.1 weeks, 254 patients were enrolled across 39 sites. Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy-Prostate (FACT-P), Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA), Brief Pain Inventory-Short form (BPI-SF), Brief Fatigue Inventory (BFI), and Current Health Satisfaction in Prostate Cancer (CHS-PCa) were evaluated at baseline, as well as at weeks 12, 24, 48, and 72 after AA+P initiation. Descriptive analysis was used with continuous variables. Changes from baseline were summarized using mean (standard deviation [SD] ). Results: At a median age of 76.6 (8.94), baseline FACT-P total score was 111.3 (19.56) with no significant change in their functional status observed from baseline over time. The median baseline MoCA score was 25.2 (4.52), yet subsequent assessments showed an absence of cognitive decline while under treatment. Similarly, no meaningful changes were detected in BPI, BFI, and CHS-PCa during the 72-week study period, thus suggesting that patients’ PROs were well-maintained throughout AA+P treatment. Prostate-specific antigen (PSA) response with 〉 50% decline was 66.4%. Safety profile was consistent with the known side effect of AA+P. Conclusions: COSMiC represents the largest Canadian mCRPC cohort treated with AA+P with real-world, prospective evaluation of PROs. This data demonstrated the maintenance in quality of life and cognitive status over the course of the study and underscores the importance of PRO use in this complex patient population.

    Abstract: 238 Background: Abiraterone Acetate (AA) is a selective inhibitor of the androgen biosynthesis and has significantly improved OS for mCRPC patients. Canadian Observational Study in Metastatic Cancer of the Prostate (COSMiC) is a Non-Interventional Observational Study pPhase IV clinical trial; NCT02364531) specifically designed to (1) collect real-world drug-specific outcomes (clinical and patient reported outcomes) and (2) assess urologists experience with incorporation of AA in their practice. Here we report data collected from COSMiC trial on the success of AA integration into the urology practice and physicians experience in participating in the trial. Methods: (1) A comprehensive questionnaire was developed to assess urologists experience with (a) integration and usage of AA in their practice and (b) COSMiC trial. (2) Questionnaire was sent to the active trial sites (47 sites) and collected data from 30 sites is summarized here. Results: 93.3% of participants in COSMiC trial were urologists (63.3% community vs. 30% academic). The ease of use and success in integration of AA in urology practice was rated easy by 50% of the participants, easy once they overcame few barriers by 46.7% and challenging by 3.3%. Drug-related barriers identified included time involvement (50%), resource issues such as nursing support (23.3%), and lack of appropriate infrastructure (33.3%). 90% of the active sites indicated that treating mCRPC patients with AA will be part of their practice post-trial. As part of this report we also assessed and identified physicians barriers in participating in COSMiC trial. 86.7% of the sites reported that trials such as COSMiC will add value to the therapeutic area and 93.3% of the sites reported interest in participating in trials of this nature in future. Conclusions: This report indicates that integration of AA in urology practices is considered easy and manageable for most urologists, in some cases after overcoming few initial barriers. There is high interest in participating in future real-world trials of this nature among urologists and such studies add value to the therapeutic area. Clinical trial information: NCT02364531.

    Abstract: 196 Background: Oral androgen biosynthesis inhibitor, abiraterone acetate plus prednisone (AA+P), has shown to improve survival and patient-related outcomes (PROs) in clinical trials. The COSMiC study (Canadian Observational Study in Metastatic Cancer of the Prostate; ClinicalTrials.gov: NCT02364531) set out to prospectively amass real-world data on mCRPC patients (pts) managed with AA+P in communities within Canada. Here, we report the interim analysis of their PROs. Methods: At planned data cutoff in Sept 2017 after a median follow-up of 33.8 months, 264 pts were enrolled in 39 sites across Canada. Their FACT-P (Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy – Prostate) and MoCA (Montreal Cognitive Assessment) were evaluated at baseline as well as at weeks 12, 24, 48 and 72 after AA+P initiation. A 10-point decrease denotes clinically significant degradation in FACT-P and a total MoCA score of 〉 = 26 is considered normal. Descriptive analysis was utilized with continuous variables. Changes from baseline were summarized using mean (SD). Results: At a median age of 77 among 264 pts, 230, 185, 110 and 63 pts were available for analysis at their week 12, 24, 48, and 72 assessments respectively. The mean baseline FACT-P total score was 111.2 (19.44) with a 〈 3-point absolute change from baseline at subsequent assessments, denoting no clinically significant change in functional status over time. The mean baseline MoCA score was 25.2 (4.50), yet all subsequent assessments scored above 26 and a mean absolute change from baseline of 〈 1, showing an absence of cognitive decline over time. PSA value was available for 221 pts, 64.3% (142/221) and 34.4% (76/221) achieved a PSA decline of 〉 50% and 90% respectively. All-grade treatment-related adverse events were reported in 63 pts, with 11% who have had AA+P discontinuation or interruption. Conclusions: COSMiC represents the largest Canadian mCRPC cohort treated with AA+P with real world prospective evaluation of PROs. This data demonstrated the maintenance in quality of life and cognitive status over the course of the study, and underscores the importance of PRO utilization in this complex patient population. Clinical trial information: NCT02364531.
