    Abstract: e15679 Background: Molecular profiling has defined actionable mutations in HCC, and has the potential to be used for selection of targeted therapies, as well as for the characterization of predictive biomarkers from approved treatments. Noninvasive strategies are critical to HCC given the challenge of obtaining liver biopsies. We investigated whether profiling by ctDNA could provide predictive and/or prognostic information for HCC patients (pt) treated with immune checkpoint inhibitors. Methods: We analyzed blood samples from 22 HCC pt who underwent treatment with anti-PD-1 using comprehensive genomic testing of ctDNA with a commercially-available platform (Guardant Health, CA). Demographic and treatment data were retrospectively collected with the goal of correlating treatment outcomes and drug response (by imaging and/or AFP) with molecular abnormalities. Results: 17/22 (77.3%) were men; median age was 66 years. 21 patients received nivolumab and 1 received pembrolizumab. 9 were HCV positive and 5 were HBV positive. 15/22 patients had 〉 1 alteration identified. The median number of alterations/pt was 3 (range, 1-8). TP53 was the common altered gene (n = 11) followed by CTNBB1 (n = 8) , TERT (n = 5) KRAS (n = 3) , GNAS (n = 2). Mutations were also seen (n = 1) in KIT, PIK3CA, PTEN, EGFR, NTRK, FGFR2 among others. 6 pt (27.3%) had AFP response and 8 (36.4%) achieved disease control 〉 12 weeks. Mutations involving KIT, PIK3CA and PTEN were associated with shorter progression-free (PFS) (p 〈 .001 for all) and overall survival (OS) (p = .028 for all), whereas GNAS mutation was associated with shorter PFS (p = 0.019) but not OS. No differences in OS or PFS was observed for other alterations, including the presence of CTNNB1 mutation. There were no correlations between specific alterations and objective tumor response (either by imaging or AFP). 32% of pt were progression-free at 6 months. Median OS was not reached, and 62% were alive after 1 year. Conclusions: Identifying non-invasive predictive biomarkers of benefit to immunotherapy is a priority in HCC. Our data suggest that specific ctDNA alterations can provide predictive information for survival (OS and PFS) on immune checkpoint inhibitors. Further larger studies are warranted for confirmation.

    Abstract: Hepatitis B virus (HBV) and hepatitis C virus (HCV) are considered to be hepatotropic and are a major cause of hepatocellular carcinoma. However, little is known about the role of HBV and HCV infection in other malignancies. This study aimed to determine whether HBV and HCV infections increase the risk for pancreatic cancer development. Patients and Methods At The University of Texas M. D. Anderson Cancer Center, Houston, TX, we recruited 476 patients with pathologically confirmed adenocarcinoma of the pancreas and 879 age-, sex-, and race-matched healthy controls. Blood samples were tested for the presence of HCV antibodies (anti-HCV), HBV surface antigen (HBsAg), antibodies against HBV core antigen (anti-HBc), and antibodies against HBsAg (anti-HBs). The positive samples were retested by two confirmatory tests. An unconditional multivariable logistic regression analysis was used to estimate adjusted odds ratios (AORs). Results Anti-HCV was positive in seven cases (1.5%) and nine controls (1%). Anti-HBc was positive in 36 cases (7.6%) and 28 controls (3.2%). The estimated AORs and 95% CIs were as follows: anti-HCV–positive, 0.9 (95% CI, 0.3 to 2.8), anti-HBc–positive, 2.5 (95% CI, 1.5 to 4.2), anti-HBc–positive/anti-HBs–positive, 2.3 (95% CI, 1.2 to 4.2), and anti-HBc–positive/anti-HBs–negative, 4 (95% CI, 1.4 to 11.1). Risk modification by past exposure to HBV was observed among diabetics (AOR, 7.1; 95% CI, 1.7 to 28.7). Conclusion Past exposure to HBV may be associated with pancreatic cancer development. Should such findings be confirmed by other studies, it may offer important insights into the etiology of pancreatic cancer and may suggest the need to consider prevention of HBV reactivation among patients with HBV-related pancreatic cancer during chemotherapy.

    Abstract: e15662 Background: Our recent studies showed that lower insulin like growth factors-I (IGF-I) associated with shorter overall survival (OS) in HCC. Furthermore, integrating IGF-I into Child Pugh Score (CTP) (IGF-CTP) led to better prognostic stratification (Kaseb et al., JNCI 2014). Since CTP class A is the standard criterion for active therapy and trials entry, we aimed at assessing the ability of IGF-CTP to predict systemic therapy outcome. Methods: 78 patients were prospectively enrolled and treated with sorafenib. Pre-treatment blood sample were tested for IGF-I and IGF-CTP was calculated after study completion. Survival analysis was done to measure the estimated median OS and progression free survival (PFS), and log rank test was used to compare PFS and OS between subgroups of IGF-CTP score of patients. Results: For CTP A patients, the estimated median OS in months (95% confidence interval, CI) was 9.1m (5.3 – 19.7) and PFS was 5.6m (3.8 – 7.9). Patients who were reclassified as IGF-CTP (B) (OldA/newB = AB) had significantly shorter OS 5.2m (2.8 - NA) and PFS of 4.3m (2.1 – NA), as compared to patients’ who classified as class A by both scoring systems (AA), who had OS of 11.1m (5.7 – 21.3) and PFS of 7.2 m (3.9 – 15.1), P 〈 .001. Interestingly, patients who classified as CTP-B but IGF-CTP-A ( = BA) had significantly longer OS 10.2 (2.89 – NA) and PFS 8.1 (2.9 – NA), as compared to (BB) patients who had OS of 5.8 (3.2 –NA) and PFS of 5.1 (3.19 – NA), P 〈 .001 Conclusions: Our study concluded that IGF-CTP score was more accurate than original CTP score in predicting survival outcomes of systemic therapy in HCC. If validated, this approach may change the standard stratification criteria for active therapy in routine clinical practice and patient selection for clinical trial entry in HCC.

    IGF-1 Child-Turcotte-Pugh score as a predictor of overall survival to therapy in CTP-A, BCLC stage C patients with advanced hepatocellular carcinoma.
    American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO) ; 2020

    Abstract: 488 Background: Child-Turcotte-Pugh (CTP) A is the standard population for active HCC therapy. The IGF-CTP score, comprises levels of type 1 insulin-like growth factor (IGF-1), bilirubin, INR, and albumin, significantly improved the prediction of overall survival (OS) in recently published studies. Our current study aimed to investigate the accuracy of the IGF-CTP score in predicting OS in HCC Child-Pugh A patients (pts) treated with local and/or systemic therapies (tx). The overall hypothesis is that the IGF-CTP score can further distinguish CP-A pts in terms of overall survival, PFS. Methods: Between 2014 and 2018, a total of 274 pts with new advanced HCC BCLC stage who had available baseline plasma IGF-1 level were retrospectively enrolled. Clinicopathologic features and treatment history were collected. We calculated IGF-CTP scores, used Kaplan-Meier method and log rank test to estimate and compare time to event outcomes between subgroups of patients. Results: 198 pts were CTP Class A, 209 patient underwent systemic tx, 65 underwent local tx [see table] ; 161 were re-classified as IGF-CTP-A with a median OS of 16.09 months (95% CI = 13.06 to 23.29 months) (p 〈 0.0001), whereas 37 patients were reclassified as intermediate risk (IGF-CTP-B) and had significantly shorter OS of 10.66 months (95% CI = 5.49 to 26.51) (p 〈 0.0001). Conclusions: The results of this study support our biologically-driven hypothesis that IGF-CTP score is predictive of overall survival to therapy in advanced HCC treated with local and/or systemic therapy. Among HCC pts with CTP-A class, some are reclassified as IGF-CP-B/C and were found to have significantly poorer prognosis in terms of shorter OS. Future validation of the predictive ability of our IGF-1 score may lead to adopting it as a stratification tool in clinical trials as well as to predict HCC outcome and guide therapy decision in routine practice.

    Abstract: 4076 Background: Our recent published studies concluded that Lower levels of Insulin like growth factors-I (IGF-I) is correlated with shorter overall survival (OS) in HCC, and IGF-CP scores assigned based on serum bilirubin, serum albumin level, prothrombin time, and plasma IGF-1 provides better prognostic stratification. Sorafenib is the first frontline drug approved for the treatment of CP class A patients with advanced HCC. CP class A is the standard criterion for active therapy and trials entry in HCC. In this study we aimed at evaluating the predictive ability of IGF-CP to sub-stratify old CP classes and better predict sorafenib outcomes. Methods: Total of101 patients were prospectively enrolled from MD Anderson Cancer Center (MDACC). Blood sample were collected and tested for IGF-I and IGF-CP was calculated into class A, B and C. Median OS and progression free survival (PFS) were analyzed, and log rank test was used to compare PFS and OS between subgroups of IGF-CTP score of patients. Results: Among CP class, patients who were reclassified as IGF-CP (B) (Old A/new B) had significantly shorter OS in months (m) was 7.6m (95% CI= 5.23-26.51m ) and PFS of 2.99m (95% CI=2.53-5.26m) with (P 〈 0.001) in both, as compared to patients’ who classified as class A by both scoring systems (AA), who had OS of 15.43m (95% CI=12.3-31.18m) and PFS of 4.97m (95% CI=3.26-7.2m), (P 〈 0.001) in both. Conclusions: IGF-CTP score sub-stratified CP A class, and provided better prognostic stratification and accuracy than CP score in predicting sorafenib survival outcomes in HCC. This approach may lead to a paradigm shift in predicting efficacy and toxicity of systemic HCC therapies and in stratifying patients for active therapy and selection in HCC clinical trials.

    Abstract: 420 Background: Prior history of chronic medical conditions and medical treatment exposure has been significantly associated with the development and prognosis of different cancers. Population-based studies reported a reduced cancer-related mortality among patients with pancreatic cancer who were Statin or Metformin users as compared with non-users. We aimed to study the effect of antihypertensive medications on the survival outcome of pancreatic cancer. Methods: Under institutional ethical approval, medical records were reviewed and clinical characteristics at baseline (time of diagnosis) were retrieved. Blood pressure and antihypertensive medications use were documented including Angiotensin Converting Enzyme Inhibitor (ACEI), diuretics, Angiotensin Receptor Blockers (ARBs) and Beta-Blockers (BB). Hazard ratios (HRs) and 95% CIs were calculated by using Cox proportional hazard models with a backward stepwise selection procedure to identify independent prognostic factors for overall survival. Results: A total of 1,204 patients with adenocarcinoma of the pancreas were diagnosed at MD Anderson Cancer center between 1999 and 2009 were identified. The mean age value (± SD) is 61.9± 10 where 58.6% (N=705) were men and 87.5% (N=1,054) were white. The majority of patients were Caucasian (87%). 41.9% had metastatic disease. A total of 639 (53%) patients had chemotherapy with or without radiation. ACEI and diuretics use independently reduced all-cause mortality, ACEI by 24% with HR 0.76 (CI 0.63-0.91), and diuretics by 26% with HR 0.73 (CI 0.60- 0.89). Neither ARBs nor beta blockers use was statistically significant in reducing all-cause mortality (HR.80, CI 0.63 -1.0), BB HR 0.85 (CI 0.7-1.0). Conclusions: Our findings indicate a significant impact of anti-hypertensive medications including ACEI and diuretics on pancreatic cancer outcomes with improved survival in users versus non-users, this effect was independent of the cancer treatment received, tumour histology and site of metastasis. The potential antitumor activities of these agents in pancreatic cancer should be studied further.

    Abstract: 462 Background: We previously reported improved overall survival (OS) associated with metformin usage in a retrospective study of type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM) patients with colorectal (CRC) (Br J Cancer 2012;106:1374-8). We sought to determine whether this effect could be validated in an independent data set. Methods: Under an IRB-approved protocol, 6,128 patients with CRC based on ICD-9 billing codes diagnosed between 1995-2005 were reviewed; of these 683 were determined to have type 2 DM. Results: Of the 683 diabetic CRC patients, 407 (59.5%) were male. The patient’s stage at diagnosis was: stage I (67, 9.8%), II (162, 23.7%), III (247, 36.1%), IV (166, 24.3%) and unknown stage (41, 6%). The number of patients using metformin at the time of first evaluation was 146 (21.3%). A significantly better median OS was observed in CRC patients with metformin use in both all-stage and stage III groups (p = 0.017, p = 0.029 respectively); median OS results demonstrated in table below. Conclusions: This independent retrospective data set validated the OS benefit associated with metformin use previously reported in patients with type 2 DM and CRC. Future prospective studies will be required to confirm the benefit of metformin in this clinical setting. [Table: see text]

    Abstract: 473 Background: Evolving information is emerging regarding patient tumor molecular data and associations with patient clinical characteristics and survival outcomes; we sought to evaluate pt clinical data with CRC tumor mut status. Methods: Since January 2008 tumor pts with stage IV CRC (principally primary tumors) were analyzed for KRAS (codon 12, 13, and 61) mut status as standard-of-care. A subset of pts tumors underwent BRAF and KRAS codon 164 mut testing. Results: 1,891 pts with CRC whose tumors underwent molecular mut analysis were identified from the clinical record. There was no statistically significant difference in pt overall survival from time of diagnosis for stages I/II (data not shown) and III; for stage IV pts there was an inferior OS associated with BRAF mut tumors (see Table). Tumor BRAF mut was significantly detected among ever smokers (10.2%) as compared to never smokers (5.4%), p 〈 0.001; meanwhile, tumor KRAS mut and wild type distribution were similar between ever smokers and never smokers. KRAS mut was significantly observed in CRC patients with distant lymph node, hepatic and lung metastasis, p 〈 0.001. Type 2 diabetes, intake of metformin or ACE inhibitors, were not significantly correlated with tumor KRAS or BRAF mut status. Conclusions: Pts with stage IV CRC BRAF mut tumors have a higher likelihood of prior or current smoking history in addition to having an adverse survival prognosis; pts with stage IV KRAS mut tumors have an increased association with distant lymph node, hepatic, and lung metastases as compared to KRAS wild type and BRAF mut tumors. Studies are ongoing to determine how tumor molecular characteristics may help to predict clinical outcomes and provide a useful to guide pt care. [Table: see text]
