    Abstract: Mounting evidence suggests a relationship between hospital volume and outcomes after major cancer surgery; however, the absolute benefits of volume-based referral on a national basis are unclear. Patients and Methods Data from the Nationwide Inpatient Sample were used to measure the likelihood of operative mortality and a prolonged length of stay (LOS) after six cancer surgeries (prostatectomy, cystectomy, esophagectomy, pancreatectomy, pneumonectomy, and liver resection) between 1993 and 2003. Using sampling weights, the adjusted likelihood of the outcomes was used to calculate the number of lives saved (or prolonged LOS avoided) in the United States. Results The magnitude of the volume–operative mortality effect varied from an adjusted odds ratio (OR) of 1.3 (95% CI, 0.8 to 2.3) for cystectomy to 4.9 (95% CI, 2.4 to 10.1) for pancreatectomy. After accounting for varying rates of procedure utilization, the lives saved per 100 surgeries regionalized ranged from 0.2 (95% CI, 0.12 to 0.24 lives saved) for prostatectomy to 9.2 (95% CI, 6.7 to 10.4 lives saved) for pancreatectomy. The volume–prolonged LOS effect varied from an adjusted OR of 0.9 (95% CI, 0.5 to 1.6) for liver resection to 4.8 (95% CI, 3.5 to 6.7) for prostatectomy. After accounting for procedure use, the number of prolonged hospitalizations avoided ranged from −1.7 (95% CI, −11.3 to 3.6 hospitalizations) to 14.3 (95% CI, 12.9 to 15.4 hospitalizations) per 100 surgeries regionalized for liver resection and prostatectomy, respectively. Conclusion For patients undergoing major cancer surgery, the benefits of volume-based referral depend on the interplay between procedure utilization, the magnitude of effect, and the outcome chosen.

    Abstract: e23551 Background: Patients with relapsed solid tumors have dismal predicted OS 〈 10-20% at 5 years with conventional salvage therapies. We hypothesized that a multi-faceted immunotherapy approach to optimize graft-versus-tumor (GVT) effects, in combination with a mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) inhibitor maintenance strategy, would enhance early disease-control rates (DCR), leading to improved progression-free survival (PFS) and OS for this high-risk population. Methods: Treatment consisted of HLA-haploidentical marrow (n = 12) or peripheral blood stem cell (n = 3) transplantation to optimize GVT effects, preceded by reduced-intensity conditioning (fludarabine, cyclophosphamide, and 3 Gy total body irradiation) to promote engraftment of these mismatched stem cells. Haplo-NK cells were given to boost this GVT effect. They were purified from non-mobilized donor mononuclear cells by CD3 depletion followed by CD56 selection using the Miltenyi CliniMACS system and were infused fresh on day +7 after HCT. Postgrafting immunosuppression included sirolimus maintenance, which continued until 6 months post-HCT. Results: Fifteen patients with relapsed Ewing sarcoma (EWS) (n = 9), rhabdomyosarcoma (n = 4), osteosarcoma (n = 1), and medulloblastoma (n = 1) having stable or undetectable gross disease were enrolled on this Phase II trial. Median age at HCT was 19 (4.5-37) years old and median performance status was 80%. Four patients underwent prior autologous transplants. Patients received a median NK dose of 6.5 (3.7-11.4) x 10 6 /kg. NK cell products had a median log T cell depletion of 5.94 (5.18-6.75), median NK recovery of 62% (48-71%), and median NK purity of 92% (74%-97%). All donor NK infusions were well-tolerated without cytokine release syndrome. All patients engrafted, and all had sustained full donor chimerism ( 〉 95% CD3). Two patients developed grade II acute graft-versus-host disease (GVHD), and 2 patients developed chronic GVHD. No patients died from transplant-related causes. With a median follow-up of 1.3 years (range, 70 days – 5 years), 6-month DCR is 72%. 1- and 2-year OS for the entire cohort is estimated at 64% and 40%, respectively, while PFS is 29% and 22%, respectively. For patients with EWS,1- and 2- year -OS is estimated at 75% and 45%, and PFS is 38% and 25%, respectively. Conclusions: This dual immunotherapy approach followed by mTOR inhibition maintenance was well-tolerated, with better than expected OS for this high-risk set of diseases. Clinical trial information: NCT02100891 .

    Abstract: 451 Background: FOLFIRINOX or Gemcitabine+nab-Paclitaxel (Gem/nPac) has superior overall survival (OS) compared with gemcitabine alone in pts with Stage 4 pancreatic cancer (PC). Based on these results, FOLFIRINOX or Gem/nPac has been utilized in neoadjuvant (NA) setting for BR and LA PC. This report describes our multi-institutional experience with NA treatment with FOLFIRINOX or Gem/nPac followed by surgical resection. Methods: Pts with BR and LA PC who received NA FOLFIRINOX or Gem/nPac and underwent surgical resection between 2011 and 2015 at 7 high volume pancreas centers were reviewed. Pre-operative chemoradiation therapy (pCXRT) was administered selectively based on radiographic response (RR). Near-complete (minimal residual disease) or complete pathologic response (PR) was categorized as marked PR. Results: 86 pts received either NA FOLFIRINOX (69%) or Gem/nPac therapy (31%) for BR (67%), LA (32%) PC. pCXRT was administered in 71% of pts. Pts received a median of 4 cycles of FOLFIRINOX (range 1-28) and 3 cycles of Gem/nPac (range 2-13). No grade 4-5 toxicities were noted. The majority of pts underwent pancreaticoduodenectomy (84%) and vascular resection was performed in 53% - 40 with venous resection and 6 with arterial resection. R0 resection rate was 86% with no difference between two treatment groups (p = 0.9). Reduction in CA 19-9 or RR did not correlate with pathological response (p = 0.8). A marked PR was seen in 12 pts – 13.6% vs. 15.4% for FOLFIRINOX and Gem/nPac, respectively (p = 0.8). Adjuvant chemotherapy or CXRT was administered in 44% of pts. With a median follow up of 20 months (mo), OS was 27.4 mo with median OS in marked PR was 53 vs. 25 mo in moderate PR/non-responders (p = 0.04). Recurrence was noted in 45 pts – 49% had distant recurrence, 20% had local recurrence and 31% had both. Conclusions: Neoadjuvant FOLFIRINOX or Gem/nPac therapy in conjunction with aggressive surgical resection in BR and select LA PDAC pts result in significant long-term survival especially in marked pathologic responders. Further, optimization of treatment protocols in the neoadjuvant and adjuvant setting is warranted since recurrence rates are high.

    Abstract: We sought to investigate clinical outcomes of relapsed medulloblastoma and to compare molecular features between patient-matched diagnostic and relapsed tumors. METHODS Children and infants enrolled on either SJMB03 (NCT00085202) or SJYC07 (NCT00602667) trials who experienced medulloblastoma relapse were analyzed for clinical outcomes, including anatomic and temporal patterns of relapse and postrelapse survival. A largely independent, paired molecular cohort was analyzed by DNA methylation array and next-generation sequencing. RESULTS A total of 72 of 329 (22%) SJMB03 and 52 of 79 (66%) SJYC07 patients experienced relapse with significant representation of Group 3 and wingless tumors. Although most patients exhibited some distal disease (79%), 38% of patients with sonic hedgehog tumors experienced isolated local relapse. Time to relapse and postrelapse survival varied by molecular subgroup with longer latencies for patients with Group 4 tumors. Postrelapse radiation therapy among previously nonirradiated SJYC07 patients was associated with long-term survival. Reirradiation was only temporizing for SJMB03 patients. Among 127 patients with patient-matched tumor pairs, 9 (7%) experienced subsequent nonmedulloblastoma CNS malignancies. Subgroup (96%) and subtype (80%) stabilities were largely maintained among the remainder. Rare subgroup divergence was observed from Group 4 to Group 3 tumors, which is coincident with genetic alterations involving MYC, MYCN, and FBXW7. Subgroup-specific patterns of alteration were identified for driver genes and chromosome arms. CONCLUSION Clinical behavior of relapsed medulloblastoma must be contextualized in terms of up-front therapies and molecular classifications. Group 4 tumors exhibit slower biological progression. Utility of radiation at relapse is dependent on patient age and prior treatments. Degree and patterns of molecular conservation at relapse vary by subgroup. Relapse tissue enables verification of molecular targets and identification of occult secondary malignancies.

    Abstract: Therapeutically actionable molecular alterations are widely distributed across cancer types. The National Cancer Institute Molecular Analysis for Therapy Choice (NCI-MATCH) trial was designed to evaluate targeted therapy antitumor activity in underexplored cancer types. Tumor biopsy specimens were analyzed centrally with next-generation sequencing (NGS) in a master screening protocol. Patients with a tumor molecular alteration addressed by a targeted treatment lacking established efficacy in that tumor type were assigned to 1 of 30 treatments in parallel, single-arm, phase II subprotocols. PATIENTS AND METHODS Tumor biopsy specimens from 5,954 patients with refractory malignancies at 1,117 accrual sites were analyzed centrally with NGS and selected immunohistochemistry in a master screening protocol. The treatment-assignment rate to treatment arms was assessed. Molecular alterations in seven tumors profiled in both NCI-MATCH trial and The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) of primary tumors were compared. RESULTS Molecular profiling was successful in 93.0% of specimens. An actionable alteration was found in 37.6%. After applying clinical and molecular exclusion criteria, 17.8% were assigned (26.4% could have been assigned if all subprotocols were available simultaneously). Eleven subprotocols reached their accrual goal as of this report. Actionability rates differed among histologies (eg, 〉 35% for urothelial cancers and 〈 6% for pancreatic and small-cell lung cancer). Multiple actionable or resistance-conferring tumor mutations were seen in 11.9% and 71.3% of specimens, respectively. Known resistance mutations to targeted therapies were numerically more frequent in NCI-MATCH than TCGA tumors, but not markedly so. CONCLUSION We demonstrated feasibility of screening large numbers of patients at numerous accruing sites in a complex trial to test investigational therapies for moderately frequent molecular targets. Co-occurring resistance mutations were common and endorse investigation of combination targeted-therapy regimens.

    Abstract: 55 Background: Prostate cancer accounts for greater than 200,000 cases each year. Although cancer control is generally favorable with treatment, side effects are common. Among men treated with surgery, nerve-sparing prostatectomy is associated with lower rates of incontinence and erectile dysfunction. Seminal vesicle sparing (SVS) may further limit damage to the neurovascular tissue surrounding the prostate. Although some surgeons practice SVS, evidence supporting its use is lacking. We implemented a randomized control trial to determine if SVS is associated with better functional outcomes compared to non-SVS prostatectomy. Methods: 140 men with early-stage (T1c/T2N0M0, Gleason score 〈 = 7) prostate cancer and adequate erectile function (IIEF 〉 = 21) were enrolled in the Seminal Vesicle Sparing Prostatectomy Trial (NCT01825642) and randomized to either SVS or non-SVS prostatectomy between 2006 and 2011. The Expanded Prostate Cancer Index Composite (EPIC) was used to assess quality of life outcomes following surgery. Results: 71 and 69 men were enrolled in the SVS and non-SVS arms, respectively. The predominant surgical approach was robotic assisted prostatectomy ( 〉 97% in both arms). Men in the SVS arm were slightly younger (56 vs 58 years, p = 0.02); however, there were no significant differences in other clinical or demographic factors. There were no cases of seminal vesicle invasion. PSA recurrence was noted in 3 patients (1 in SVS group and 2 in non-SVS group). At 12 months postoperatively, sexual (76 vs 75) and urinary incontinence (92 vs 94) scores were similar among SVS and non-SVS patients (both p 〉 0.2). Conclusions: Recovery of urinary and sexual function was common among men undergoing SVS or non-SVS prostatectomy. SVS did not negatively impact cancer control, but was not associated with enhanced recovery of sexual or urinary function, perhaps due to the high level of recovery of the control arm. Clinical trial information: NCT01825642. [Table: see text]

    Abstract: 30 Background: While perineural invasion (PNI) has been associated with poorer clinical outcomes in prostate cancer patients, it is not well defined as a predictor of long-term endpoints in newly diagnosed prostate cancer. Therefore, we evaluated the role of PNI as a prognostic marker in patients with localized prostate cancer who underwent surgery or radiation. Methods: We analyzed a prospectively collected cohort of 5,034 consecutive patients with localized prostate cancer treated with surgery (n = 4,207) or radiation (n = 827) at University of Michigan from 1994-2013. The primary outcome measured was metastasis-free survival, with secondary outcomes of PSA-recurrence free survival and overall survival (OS). Covariates included age, treatment year, race, comorbidity index, pre-treatment PSA, Gleason score, and T-stage. Survival analysis was estimated using the Kaplan-Meir method, and multivariable analysis was performed using a Cox proportional hazards model. Results: 22.6% of surgery patients and 37.5% of radiation patients had PNI. 169 patients developed metastasis a median of 44 months (IQR 21-83 months) after primary therapy. In the combined cohort, PNI was a predictor of metastasis and PSA recurrence, but not OS (Table 1). For surgery, PNI was a predictor of metastasis, PSA recurrence, and OS. For radiation, PNI was a predictor of metastasis and PSA recurrence, but not OS. Conclusions: PNI is an independent predictor of long-term outcomes in newly diagnosed prostate cancer patients regardless of subsequent therapy. These data support the importance of PNI as a key factor denoting potentially aggressive prostate cancer and importing a significant increase in the likelihood of eventual metastatic progression.

    Abstract: Children's Oncology Group (COG) AALL0331 tested whether pegaspargase intensification on a low-intensity chemotherapy backbone would improve the continuous complete remission (CCR) rate in a low-risk subset of children with standard-risk B-acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). METHODS AALL0331 enrolled 5,377 patients with National Cancer Institute standard-risk B-ALL (age 1-9 years, WBC 〈 50,000/μL) between 2005 and 2010. Following a common three-drug induction, a cohort of 1,857 eligible patients participated in the low-risk ALL random assignment. Low-risk criteria included no extramedullary disease, 〈 5% marrow blasts by day 15, end-induction marrow minimal residual disease 〈 0.1%, and favorable cytogenetics ( ETV6-RUNX1 fusion or simultaneous trisomies of chromosomes 4, 10, and 17). Random assignment was to standard COG low-intensity therapy (including two pegaspargase doses, one each during induction and delayed intensification) with or without four additional pegaspargase doses at 3-week intervals during consolidation and interim maintenance. The study was powered to detect a 4% improvement in 6-year CCR rate from 92% to 96%. RESULTS The 6-year CCR and overall survival (OS) rates for the entire low-risk cohort were 94.7% ± 0.6% and 98.7% ± 0.3%, respectively. The CCR rates were similar between arms (intensified pegaspargase 95.3% ± 0.8% v standard 94.0% ± 0.8%; P = .13) with no difference in OS (98.1% ± 0.5% v 99.2% ± 0.3%; P = .99). Compared to a subset of standard-risk study patients given identical therapy who had the same early response characteristics but did not have favorable or unfavorable cytogenetics, outcomes were significantly superior for low-risk patients (CCR hazard ratio 1.95; P = .0004; OS hazard ratio 5.42; P 〈 .0001). CONCLUSION Standard COG therapy without intensified pegaspargase, which can easily be given as an outpatient with limited toxicity, cures nearly all children with B-ALL identified as low-risk by clinical, early response, and favorable cytogenetic criteria.
