    Abstract: 821 Background: The CORRECT study showed significant overall survival (OS) improvement in the regorafenib (REG), compared with the placebo group in metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC) which progressed after standard chemotherapy. In Japanese subgroup analysis, the hazard ratio of OS also indicated a tendency similar to overall population. The standard starting dose of REG is 160mg/body/d, and not adjusted according to body weight and height, race of the patients, or other parameters, however, some cases require dose reduction to 120mg/d or less due to adverse events (AE). Dose modification due to AE was observed frequently in Japanese compared with non-Japanese during the study (84.6% and 51.3%). Therefore, we performed this dose titration study to investigate efficacy and safety of REG. Methods: This single arm, multicenter phase II study evaluated lower initial dose of REG (120mg/d, for 21 days, followed by 7-day break) in mCRC progressed after standard chemotherapy. Dose escalation to 160mg was allowed in 2 nd and subsequent cycle, if patients developed 〈 grade 2 AE, except for liver toxicity. Patients underwent radiographic evaluation every 8 wks. The primary endpoint was disease control rate (DCR: CR+PR+SD ≥ 6 wks). The major secondary endpoints included progression free survival (PFS), OS and safety. Results: Between September 10, 2015, and March 7, 2017, total 60 patients were enrolled into the study. Median age was 68.5 (range: 30-84), and ECOG PS 0/1 were 70%/30%. DCR was 36.7% (22/60); 7% (4/60) have had SD for 6 months or longer. Median PFS was 2.3 months (95% CI: 1.8 - 2.8). 3.3% of patients (2/60) had protocol defined REG dose escalation to 160mg; one case was from the cycle 2, and the other case was from the cycle 4. 42% (25/60) had dose reduction to 80mg due to AE, and that dose reduction was needed in 10% (6/60) at the first cycle. Grade 3-4 adverse events were observed in 55% (33/60). Conclusions: Starting dose of REG 120mg appears to have comparable efficacy to 160mg. Adverse events were generally consistent with the known safety profile of REG in this setting. Final results with additional follow-up on efficacy and safety outcome measures will be provided at the meeting. Clinical trial information: UMIN000018968.

    Abstract: e15106 Background: Tumor mismatch repair (MMR) predicts benefit of immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) in metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC). We conducted a large-scale prospective observational trial on microsatellite instability (MSI) status in mCRC: SCRUM-Japan GI-SCREEN CRC-MSI. Methods: mCRC patients (pts) appropriate for systemic chemotherapy were eligible. Paired tumor and normal DNA extracted from FFPE samples were analyzed by the MSI Analysis System, which includes 5 mononucleotide markers. Tumors exhibiting ≥2 unstable markers were defined as MSI-H, while those with ≤1 were labelled MSI-L/MSS. Results: From 2/2016 to 3/2018, 1,711 pts were enrolled, and 1,696 samples were submitted. MSI status was determined in 1,676 pts (98.8%); 51 pts (3.0%) were MSI-H. For MSI-H vs. MSI-L/MSS pts: Median age (years) 64/64; male gender (%) 51.0 vs. 43.8, p=0.31; right-sided primary (%) 70.6 vs. 25.0, p 〈 0.001; and poorly differentiated histology (%) 33.3 vs. 8.9, p 〈 0.001. Of the 864 pts who received parallel NGS testing, median tumor mutation burdens (TMB) in MSI-H and MSI-L/MSS were 32.8 and 12.6 mt/Mb, p 〈 0.001. High TMB, defined as 〉 20 mt/Mb, was observed in 27/29 (93.1%) MSI-H pts. The frequency of representative gene mutations (%) for MSI-H vs. MSI-L/MSS pts were: TP53 17.2 vs. 66.1, p 〈 0.001; PIK3CA 48.3 vs. 13.2, p 〈 0.001; BRAF 34.5 vs. 7.5, p 〈 0.001; MSH2 17.2 vs. 0, p 〈 0.001; CTNNB1 17.2 vs. 0.6, p 〈 0.001; and ERBB2 10.3 vs. 1.4, p 〈 0.001. ERBB2 amplification was detected only in MSI-L/MSS pts (2.3%). Two-year survival rates from first-line systemic therapy in 389 pts with MSI-L/MSS, 5 pts with MSI-H treated with ICI in any-line, and 5 pts with MSI-H not treated with ICI, were 77.7, 100, and 33.3%, respectively. Conclusions: MSI-H mCRC tumors were more frequent in right-sided colon primaries and with poorly differentiated histology. Median TMB was significantly greater in MSI-H pts, and a very high burden was frequently seen. Survival in MSI-H mCRC was poor before ICIs; these agents may improve outcomes for MSI-H pts. Clinical trial #UMIN000020437.

    Abstract: 4071 Background: We recently reported that ctDNA genotyping had advantages compared with tumor tissue testing in terms of enrollment to matched clinical trials across a wide range of GI cancers (Nakamura Y, et al. ASCO-GI 2020). Here, we investigated the utility of ctDNA genotyping in mCRC in a SCRUM-Japan GI-SCREEN and GOZILA combined analysis. Methods: In GI-SCREEN, tumor tissue genotyping was performed using a next generation sequencing (NGS)-based assay, Oncomine Comprehensive Assay since Feb 2015. In GOZILA, NGS-based ctDNA genotyping was performed using Guardant360 since Feb 2018. All tests were conducted centrally in a CLIA-certified and CAP-accredited laboratory. Patients with actionable alterations were enrolled into matched company-sponsored or investigator-initiated interventional clinical trials. Results: As of Apr 2019, 2,791 mCRC patients (2,754 eligible for analysis) in GI-SCREEN and 470 (464 eligible for analysis) in GOZILA were enrolled. There were no significant differences in baseline patient characteristics between GI-SCREEN and GOZILA. Most of trials affiliated with GI-SCREEN (81%) or GOZILA (78%) targeted the RTK/RAS/RAF pathway. Compared with tumor testing, ctDNA genotyping significantly improved turnaround time (median, 12 vs. 34 days, P 〈 0.0001), sequencing success rate (96.1 vs. 92.3%, P = 0.002), and detection rate of actionable alterations (73.3 vs. 62.2%, P = 0.02). Among patients with actionable alterations, enrollment to matched clinical trials was achieved in 5.0% in GI-SCREEN and 12.1% in GOZILA ( P 〈 0.0001). Median time from enrollment in the respective screening study to enrollment in a matched clinical trial was 6.5 months in GI-SCREEN and 0.9 months in GOZILA, respectively ( P 〈 0.0001). Objective response rate and progression-free survival were similar in both groups (tissue vs. ctDNA; ORR: 18.8 vs. 17.1%, P = 1.00; median PFS: 2.2 vs. 2.2 months, HR=1.05 [95% CI, 0.71–1.55], P = 0.79). Conclusions: For patients with mCRC, ctDNA genotyping had advantages over tissue genotyping with shorter turnaround time and higher sequencing success and actionable alteration detection rate, which were associated with improved clinical trial enrollment without compromising the efficacy.

    Abstract: Genomic profiling programs have been implemented to apply next-generation sequencing (NGS) for facilitating trial enrollment. SCRUM-Japan GI-SCREEN is a large-scale genomic profiling program in advanced gastrointestinal cancers using a validated genomic assay with the goal of facilitating enrollment in targeted clinical trials, generating real-world data, and performing clinicogenomic analysis for biomarker discovery. PATIENTS AND METHODS Genotyping of tumor tissue samples from 5,743 patients with advanced gastrointestinal cancers enrolled in GI-SCREEN was centrally performed with NGS. Patients were enrolled in matched trials of targeted agents affiliated with GI-SCREEN on the basis of genotyping results. RESULTS A total of 11 gastrointestinal cancers were included, with colorectal cancer being the most common. The median age ranged from 59 to 70.5 years across cancer types. Patients enrolled after initiation of first-line treatment had significantly longer overall survival (OS) than that before treatment initiation with a median survival time difference of 8.9 months and a hazard ratio (HR) ranging from 0.25 to 0.73 across cancer types, demonstrating an immortal time bias. One hundred and forty-nine patients received matched therapies in clinical trials on the basis of their identified alterations. Among patients with colorectal cancer harboring actionable alterations, the median OS was significantly longer in patients who received matched therapies in trials than in those who did not (HR, 0.52; 95% CI, 0.26 to 1.01; P = .049). Cancer-specific pathway alterations were significantly associated with shorter survival and related to primary resistance to matched trial therapies. CONCLUSION Our genomic profiling program led to patient enrollment in targeted clinical trials and improved survival of patients with colorectal cancer who received matched therapies in clinical trials. To avoid immortal time bias, precautions are needed when using data from patients who have undergone NGS testing after initiation of the evaluated treatment line.

    Abstract: Plain language summary An ongoing study to evaluate encorafenib, binimetinib and cetuximab for people with early recurrent BRAF V600E-mutated colorectal cancer. BRAF V600E-mutated colorectal cancer (CRC) is a type of cancer caused by change (mutation) in a gene called BRAF. It is one of the most difficult types of CRC to treat because currently available drugs do not effectively treat the disease. Recently, two novel treatments, encorafenib and cetuximab, have been approved for use together in several countries for the treatment of advanced or metastatic BRAF V600E-mutated CRC. In Japan, these drugs are also approved to be given with another treatment called binimetinib, an approach called triplet therapy. This article describes the ongoing TRESBIEN study that is looking at how effective and how safe triplet therapy is for the treatment of people with early recurrent BRAF V600E-mutated CRC, during or after they have additional (adjuvant) chemotherapy. This study is ongoing, and the researchers are currently recruiting new participants. TRESBIEN will evaluate the percentage of participants whose tumors shrink with triplet therapy. The study will also look at any side effects.

    Abstract: 3506 Background: The ’’Neo RAS’’ phenomenon refers to RAS mutant (MT) metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC) that becomes RAS wild-type (WT) following treatment. This Neo RAS WT population might represent a novel indication for EGFR inhibitors, which are less effective in RAS MT mCRC. The incidence and clinicopathological characteristics of Neo RAS WT mCRC using plasma cell-free DNA (cfDNA) next generation sequencing has not been defined. Methods: As part of a large-scale nationwide screening platform (SCRUM-Japan GOZILA), 478 patients with an initial diagnosis of RAS MT mCRC by tissue analysis (MEBGEN RASKET-B) who received systemic therapy underwent cfDNA testing (Guardant 360) prior to later lines of treatment. Based on the cfDNA results, we evaluated the clinicopathological characteristics of those with Neo RAS WT and RAS MT. Neo RAS WT was defined as no RAS MT ( KRAS or NRAS) detected in plasma and was assessed in the overall cohort (Cohort A) and in the subgroup with at least one somatic alteration detected in plasma (Cohort B) to exclude those with insufficient tumor DNA shedding. Results: Median age at the time of blood sampling was 62.0 years old, and 257 (51.9%) were men. 160 (32.3%) and 319 (64.4%) had right-sided tumors and multi-organ metastases. The lungs were the most frequent site of metastasis (60.2%), followed by liver (57.4%), lymph nodes (28.9%), and peritoneum (28.5%). The prevalence of Neo RAS WT was 19.0% (91/478) in Cohort A and 9.8% (41/429) in Cohort B. The frequency of Neo RAS WT in tumors originally with KRAS exon 2 MT tended to be lower than in those with other RAS MT (18.1% vs 25.4%, P = 0.21 in Cohort A, 9.0% vs 15.4%, P = 0.14 in Cohort B). There were significant differences in the prevalence of Neo RAS WT between patients with single organ vs multi-organ metastases (P 〈 0.001 in Cohort A, P = 0.004 in Cohort B), absence vs presence of liver metastasis (P 〈 0.001 in both Cohort A and B), lymph node metastasis (P = 0.006 in Cohort A), peritoneal metastasis (P = 0.002 in group A), and bone metastasis (P = 0.029 in Cohort A), testing immediately prior to 2 nd through to 4 th line treatment vs later lines (P = 0.007 in Cohort A), immediate prior use of regorafenib (P = 0.027 in Cohort A) and any history of vascular endothelial growth factor inhibitors (P = 0.003 in Cohort A, P = 0.035 in Cohort B). In the logistic regression multivariate analysis, absence of liver metastasis (odds ratio [OR], 5.83; P 〈 0.001 in Cohort A, OR, 2.84; P = 0.005 in Cohort B), absence of lymph node metastasis (OR, 2.18; P = 0.034 in Cohort A) and tissue RAS MT other than KRAS exon 2 (OR, 2.35; P = 0.049 in Cohort B) were significantly related to the emergence of Neo RAS WT. Among 6 Neo RAS WT patients tretd with EGFR inhibitors, one had partial response and another one had stable disease for at least 6 months. Conclusions: Liver and lymph node metastasis and RAS MT other than those in KRAS exon 2 are factors associated with the development of Neo RAS WT mCRC. EGFR inhibitors might be effective treatment.

    Abstract: 5 Background: Blood-based genomic profiling by ctDNA analysis has a promise to potentially identify actionable genomic alterations. However, utility of clinical sequencing with ctDNA compared with that with tumor tissue for enrolling cancer pts to matched clinical trials remains unclear. Herein we investigated the utility of ctDNA clinical sequencing by the SCRUM-Japan GI-SCREEN and GOZILA Combined Analysis. Methods: In the GI-SCREEN, tumor tissue samples of pts with advanced GI cancer were analyzed by a next generation sequencing (NGS)-based assay, Oncomine Comprehensive Assay since Feb 2015. In the GOZILA, plasma samples of pts with advanced GI cancer were analyzed by an NGS-based ctDNA assay, Guardant360 since Feb 2018. Tests were performed centrally by CLIA-certified and CAP-accredited laboratories. Pts with actionable alterations were enrolled to matched company-sponsored or investigator-initiated clinical trials. Results: As of Apr 2019, test results were generated in 5,029 out of 5,743 pts (88%) in GI-SCREEN and 1,089 out of 1,103 pts (99%) in GOZILA ( P 〈 0.0001).Median turnaround time (TAT) was 35 days in GI-SCREEN and 12 days in GOZILA ( P 〈 0.0001). There were no differences in other baseline characteristics between GI-SCREEN and GOZILA. Proportion of enrolling matched clinical trials in GOZILA was significantly higher than that in GI-SCREEN (126 pts [2.2%] in GI-SCREEN vs. 60 pts [5.4%] in GOZILA, P 〈 0.0001). Median time from GI-SCREEN or GOZILA enrollment to clinical trial enrollment was 5.9 and 1.0 months (mo), respectively ( P 〈 0.0001). The objective response rate (ORR) and progression-free survival (PFS) were not significantly different (ORR: 17.5 vs. 16.7%, P = 1.00; median PFS: 2.8 vs. 2.0 mo, P = 0.24). Conclusions: Clinical sequencing with ctDNA having the advantage of the shorter TAT enrolled more pts with advanced GI cancer to matched clinical trials than those with tumor tissue, without compromising the efficacy.

    Abstract: 106 Background: Single agent of panitumumab (Pmab) is expected to be well tolerated and to improve survival in first-line setting in patients (pts) who are not eligible for intensive chemotherapy, although the efficacy and safety of Pmab for chemotherapy-naïve frail or elderly Japanese pts with wild-type (wt) RAS unresectable colorectal cancer (CRC) have not been yet studied. Methods: We conducted a multi-center phase II study. Pts aged over 76 years, or over 65 who were considered unsuitable for intensive chemotherapy. Pmab 6 mg/kg was administered intravenously every 2 weeks. The primary endpoint was disease control rate (DCR), and secondary endpoints included progression-free survival (PFS), overall survival (OS), response rate (RR), time to treatment failure (TTF), and the incidence of grade 3 or 4 toxicities. Sample size was set to 36 with exact p-value of 0.05, a power of 0.90, the null of hypothesis of 45% and alternative hypothesis of 70% based on the Clopper-Pearson method. Results: A total 36 pts were enrolled in February 2017 to August 2018. Two pts were excluded; one was a lack of image examination at baseline, and the other was a lack of measurable lesion. The median age was 81 (67-88), with 29 pts (85%) being aged over 76 years. There were 33 (92%) pts with performance status (PS) 0/1, while two (6%) and one (3%) pts were PS 2/3, respectively. Twenty-eight pts (78%) had left-sided CRC, while eight pts had right-sided CRC. The RR was 50.0% (95%CI, 32.4-67.6) including three cases (8.8%) of complete response, and SD was 26.5%, yielding 76.5% of DCR (p 〈 0.001, 90% confidence interval [CI], 61.5-87.7). The RR with left sided tumor was 65% (95%CI, 44.3-82.8), while that pts with right-sided tumor was 0% (95%CI, 0.0-36.9)(p = 0.003). The major grade 3 or 4 nonhematologic toxicities were rash (n = 6, 17%), hypomagnesemia (n = 4, 11%), fatigue (n = 3, 8%), paronychia (n = 3, 6%), and hyponatremia (n = 3, 6%). The grade 3 hematologic toxicities was neutropenia (n = 1, 3%). Conclusions: Pmab monotherapy showed the favolable efficacy and feasibility in the frail or elderly pts with RAS wt, unresectable CRC. The survival analysis including OS, PFS and TTF is awaiting. Clinical trial information: UMIN000024528.

    Abstract: 136 Background: Although clinical outcomes of chemotherapy in patients with locally advanced or metastatic colorectal cancer (CRC) have improved over the last decade, the standard-of-care chemotherapy regimens for patients with unresectable RAS wild-type CRC remain to be discussed. The aim of this study was to compare S-1 and oxaliplatin (SOX) + bevacizumab (B-mab) with SOX + cetuximab (C-mab) in patients with previously untreated, unresectable, locally advanced, or metastatic CRC with wild-type KRAS. Methods: This phase II, randomized, open-label, multicenter study compared the efficacy and safety of SOX+B-mab with SOX+C-mab in patients with previously untreated, unresectable, locally advanced, or metastatic CRC with wild-type KRAS. Forty-five patients were enrolled in this study between February 2012 and October 2016. Results: The overall response rate (ORR) for the SOX+B-mab group was 59.1%, whereas that for the SOX+C-mab group was 43.5% (p = 0.29). The disease control rate (DCR) for the SOX+B-mab group was 90.9%, whereas that of the SOX+C-mab group was 91.3% (p = 0.96). For all patients, median OS were 25.3 months (95% CI: 16.5–39.4 months) in the SOX+B-mab group and 15.5 months (95% CI: 7.30–30.4 months, p = 0.167) in the SOX+C-mab group. Median PFS were 11.7 months (95% CI: 7.37–18.2 months) in the SOX+B-mab group and 5.5 months (95% CI: 3.36–10.1 months, p = 0.077) in the SOX+C-mab group. In the SOX+B-mab group, OS and PFS were not significantly different with and without early tumor shrinkage (ETS). However, in the SOX+C-mab group, patients with ETS had significantly better OS (30.4 months [95% CI: 8.0–44.3 months, p = 0.032]) and PFS (12.0 months [95% CI: 5.1–19.7 months, p = 0.003] ) than those without ETS. Conclusions: The safety and efficacy of SOX+B-mab and SOX+C-mab as initial treatment for unresectable CRC with wild-type KRAS were almost the same. ETS was more correlated with PFS in the SOX+C-mab group than in the SOX+B-mab group, suggesting consideration of treatment strategy based on ETS may improve patient prognosis, especially in patients receiving the SOX+C-mab regimen.

    Abstract: Low concordance between plasma-based and tissue-based tests for determining the RAS mutational status have been reported in some but not all patients with limited-extent metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC). In this study, we investigated the relationship between metastatic site and circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) detection using ctDNA genotyping, an alternative to tissue genotyping for precision oncology. MATERIALS AND METHODS We investigated the relationship between metastatic site and ctDNA detection using Guardant360, a next-generation sequencing ctDNA assay, in mCRC patients with single-organ metastasis in the SCRUM-Japan GOZILA study (UMIN000029315). RESULTS Of 1,187 patients with mCRC enrolled in GOZILA, 138 were eligible (49 with liver-only, 15 with lymph node-only, 27 with peritoneum-only, and 47 with lung-only metastases). The concordance of RAS/ BRAF status between Guaradant360 and tissue in vitro diagnostic tests was 95.9% in patients with liver-only, 80.0% in lymph node-only, 56.0% in peritoneum-only, and 65.9% in lung-only metastases. ctDNA fraction, as measured by the median maximum variant allelic fraction (max VAF), and median number of detected variants were 23.1% and five in liver-only, 6.0% and five in lymph node-only, 0.4% and three in peritoneum-only, and 0.4% and three in lung-only metastases, respectively (all P 〈 .001, Kruskal-Wallis test). Few patients with liver-only (2.0%) and lymph node-only metastasis (13.3%) had a max VAF 〈 0.2%, which is required to ensure a detection limit of 95%, but max VAF was more frequently 〈 0.2% in patients with lung-only (27.7%) or peritoneum-only metastasis (29.6%). CONCLUSION Patients with lung-only and peritoneum-only metastatic disease have significantly lower levels of ctDNA, suggesting decreased clinical sensitivity for subclonal variants. This observation suggests that such patients may benefit from concurrent tissue and plasma testing to provide optimal genotyping for subsequent therapy selection.
