    Abstract: 4080 Background: This study investigated the administration of combination therapy, allogeneic natural killer (NK) cells and pembrolizumab, in the treatment of advanced biliary tract cancer to determine the safety and tolerability (phase 1), and the efficacy and safety (phase 2a). Methods: Forty patients (phase 1, n=6; phase 2a, n=34) were enrolled between December 2019 and June 2021. The patients were inoperable and no further conventional chemotherapy was anticipated after finishing at least one chemotherapy. The patients received 3x10 6 NK cells/kg of highly activated allogeneic NK cells (“SMT-NK”) on weeks 1 and 2 and 200 mg of pembrolizumab (Keytruda) on week 1. No treatment was given in week 3. This 3-week schedule (1 cycle) was repeated until confirmed disease progression, intolerable adverse events (AEs), patient withdrawal of consent, or finishing the maximum treatment schedule. The tumor response was evaluated after every three cycles. Results: In phase 1, 4 patients (66.7%) experienced 7 AEs, but no severe AEs directly related to the combination of the two drugs was observed. In phase 2a, 126 AEs occurred in 29 patients (85.3%). Severe AEs (≥ grade 3) were reported in 16 patients (47.1%). No dose limiting toxicity was reported. The overall response rate (ORR) was 17.4% in the full-analysis set and 50.0% in the per-protocol set. Conclusions: SMT-NKs plus pembrolizumab resulted in no severe AEs directly related to the drug combination. The combination therapy also exerted antitumor activity with improved efficacy compared to recent monotherapy with pembrolizumab in patients with advanced biliary tract cancer. A multi-center, randomized, placebo-controlled, open-label, phase 2b clinical trials to evaluate the antitumor activity of combination therapy of SMT-NKs and pembrolizumab versus pembrolizumab monotherapy in patients with advanced biliary tract cancer is now ongoing with the aim of enrolling 128 patients (ClinicalTrials.gov identifier: NCT05429697). To date, 38 patients have been enrolled and randomly assigned to each group. Within the median follow up period of 5.3 months, the disease control rate (DCR, complete response + partial response) was 27.2% in the combination therapy of SMT-NKs and pembrolizumab group, and 7.1% in the pembrolizumab monotherapy group. The ORR was 54.5% in the combination therapy group and 42.9% in the monotherapy group. So far, no severe drug-related AEs was reported. Clinical trial information: NCT03937895 .

    Abstract: 623 Background: Ethnic diversity of genetic polymorphism can result in individual differences in the efficacy and toxicity of cancer chemotherapy. Methods: A total of 292 Korean patients (183 men and 109 women) from six hospitals in Korea were prospectively enrolled. Patients had resected stage III or high-risk stage II colon cancer and were treated with 12 cycles of adjuvant oxaliplatin plus leucovorin plus 5-fluorouracil (FOLFOX) chemotherapy. 20 germline polymorphisms in 10 genes (TS, MTHFR, ERCC1, XPD, XRCC1, ABCC2, AGXT, GSTP1, GSTT1 and GSTM1) were analyzed from peripheral blood. TS genotype in 5’UTR was classified as ‘high’ (2R/3G, 3C/3G, and 3G/3G) or ‘low’ (2R/2R, 2R/3C, and 3C/3C). Results: Most patients (86.3%) received 12 complete cycles of FOLFOX chemotherapy. In contrast to previous studies in Caucasians, neutropenia (grade 3–4, 60.5%) was frequently observed in our Korean patients, whereas only 16.4% experienced grade 2 or more sensory neuropathy. Neutropenia was more frequent in MTHFR 677TT [adjusted odds ratio (OR) 2.32, 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.19–4.55] and ERCC1 19007TT (adjusted OR 4.58, 95% CI 1.20–17.40) genotypes. Patients harboring XRCC1 23885GG had lower risk of neuropathy (adjusted hazard ratio 0.56, 95% CI 0.32-0.99) and longer time to the onset of grade 2-4 neuropathy. MTHFR 677TT and XRCC1 23885GG genotype was also more prevalent in Koreans compared to Caucasians, and the difference of genotypic frequency could partly explain the ethnically different toxicity profile. After median 49.4 months of follow-up, there were 58 (19.9%) relapses and 19 (6.5%) deaths. TS ‘low’ genotype [adjusted hazard ratio (OR) 1.83, 95% CI 1.003–3.34] was significantly related to shorter disease-free survival. Overall survival was not significantly different according to the polymorphisms. Conclusions: Polymorphisms in MTHFR, XRCC1 and TS are related to toxicities and disease-free survival in patients with colon cancer. These polymorphisms may explain the ethnic difference in toxicity profile following adjuvant FOLFOX chemotherapy.

    Abstract: 505 Background: Circumferential resection margin (CRM) and distal resection margin (DRM) have different impact on clinical outcomes after preoperative chemoradiotherapy (CRT) followed by surgery. Effect and adequate length of resection margin as well as impact of treatment response after preoperative CRT was evaluated. Methods: Total of 403 patients with locally advanced rectal cancer underwent preoperative CRT followed by total mesorectal excision between January 2004 and December 2010. After applying the criterion of margin less than 0.5 cm for CRM and/or less than 1 cm for DRM, 158 cases were included as a study cohort. All patients underwent conventionally fractionated radiation with dose over 50 Gy and concurrent chemotherapy with 5-FU or capecitabine. Median follow-up duration was 44.9 months. Results: The 5-year overall survival (OS), disease-free survival (DFS), locoregional relapse-free survival (LRFS), and distant metastasis-free survival (DMFS) were 83.3%, 75.6%, 86.3%, and 77.4% respectively. CRM of 1.5 mm and DRM of 7 mm were cutting points showing maximal difference using maximal chi-square method. In univariate analysis, the shorter CRM was significantly related with worse clinical outcomes, whereas DRM was not. In multivariate analysis, CRM of 1.5mm, ypN, and perineural invasion were prognosticators for OS, DFS, LRFS, and DMFS. CRM was not a significant prognostic factor for good responders, defined as patients with near total regression or T down-staging. However, poor responders demonstrated a significant difference according to the CRM status. Conclusions: Close CRM, defined as 1.5 mm, was a significant prognosticator, but the impact was different for treatment response. Postoperative treatment strategy may be individualized based on this finding. However, findings from this study needs to be validated with larger independent cohort. [Table: see text]

    Abstract: 54 Background: We aimed to retrospectively analyze the efficacy and toxicity of capecitabine, as a salvage treatment, in metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC) that progressed after prior standard 5FU included chemotherapies. Methods: From January 1, 2008, to December 31, 2017, patients with mCRC, age ≥ 18, who received capecitabine as third- or fourth-line treatment at five different centers in South Korea, were included. All had disease progression on prior palliative chemotherapies including 5FU, oxaliplatin, and/or irinotecan. Results: A total of 131 patients were analyzed with a median age of 62 (range, 35-87). Almost all patients were exposed to prior 5FU (100%), irinotecan (100%), and oxaliplatin (98.5%). Patients were treated with cetuximab (26.7%), or bevacizumab (45.8%) before capecitabine. The median and mean duration from the last 5FU exposure to capecitabine start were 21 and 67.3 days, respectively (range, 5-1322). The objective response rate (ORR) of capecitabine was 3.6%, and the disease control rate was 30.4%. The median progression free survival (mPFS) and median overall survival (mOS) was 2.77 (95% CI, 2.495-3.045) and 9.60 months (95% CI, 7.625-11.575), respectively. There was a significant difference in efficacy according to the duration from the last 5FU exposure to the time of starting capecitabine. Compared to patients who started capecitabine earlier than 67 days after the last 5-FU administration, those who started capecitabine later than that time showed higher ORR (11.1% vs 1.2%; p-value = 0.043), mPFS (4.430 (95% CI, 2.274-6.586) vs 2.570 months (95% CI, 2.326-2.814); p-value = 0.011), and mOS (14.070 (95% CI, 5.627-22.513) vs 9.500 months (95% CI, 7.370-11.630, p-value = 0.021) (Table). 68.7% patients experienced any grade of adverse events, but only 4.6% complained grade 3 or higher. There was no treatment related death. Conclusions: Capecitabine showed modest antitumor activity with good tolerability in mCRC patients whose disease progressed after oxaliplatin and/or irinotecan. It could be considered as an alternative treatment option for mCRC patients, especially for those who have longer treatment free interval after 5FU based chemotherapies. [Table: see text]

    Abstract: 3624 Background: CpG island methylator phenotype (CIMP) is characterized by concurrent methylation of multiple CpG islands in tumor DNA, which can inactivate tumor suppressor genes or promote carcinogenesis. The prognostic impact of CIMP on treatment outcome of colon cancer patients receiving adjuvant 5-fluorouracil/leucovorin/oxaliplatin (FOLFOX) is unclear. We investigated CIMP markers in colorectal cancer patients treated with adjuvant FOLFOX. Methods: Sporadic colorectal cancer patients treated with curative resection followed by adjuvant FOLFOX were included. DNA was extracted from formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded surgical specimen. 8 CpG island loci (CACNA1G, CRABP1, IGF2, MLH1, NEUROG1, P16, RUNX3 and SOCS1) were examined using MethyLight analysis. Disease-free survival (DFS) was evaluated according to each methylation loci. Results: A total of 322 patients were included. Methylation at 1 or more loci was observed in 150 patients (46.6%) and 6 or more loci in 15 (4.7%). During a median follow-up duration of 39.7 months, 55 recurrences were observed. Three year DFS in the patient cohort was 84%. CRABP1 (23.9%) was the most frequently methylated loci, followed by p16 (22.7%) and NEUROG1 (20.8%). Patients having methylation at NEUROG1 (3 year DFS 78% in (+) vs. 86% in (-), p = 0.014) and p16 (3 year DFS 78% in (+) vs. 86% in (-), p = 0.12) had worse DFS, whereas methylation at MLH1 had better DFS (3 year DFS 100% in (+) vs. 86% in (-), p = 0.19). In a combined analysis, patients with MLH1(-)/NEUROG1(+)/p16(+) had worst treatment outcome compared to MLH1(-)/NEUROG1(+) or p16(+), MLH1(-)/ NEUROG1(-) /p16(-), and MLH1(+) (3 year DFS 62%, 82%, 87%, and 100%, respectively; p = 0.002). In multivariate analysis, NEUROG1(+)/p16(+) was associated with significantly higher recurrence compared with other patients (adjusted hazard ratio (HR) 2.15 (95% confidence interval (CI) 1.08 - 4.27, p = 0.029). Conclusions: Methylation status of NEUROG1, p16, and MLH1 is associated with recurrence following adjuvant FOLFOX in stage II/III colorectal cancer. Further validation and translational studies to improve treatment outcome in the subset of patients are warranted in the future.

    Abstract: 3550 Background: There have been controversies in prognostic impact of mucinous histology in colorectal cancer (CRC) and its implication in pts treated with adjuvant FOLFOX is unclear. This study aimed at elucidating the molecular characteristics and prognostic implication of mucinous histology in pts treated with adjuvant FOLFOX. Methods: Stage II and III CRC pts who received adjuvant FOLFOX were analyzed. Pts were grouped according to the mucinous content: 〉 50%, mucinous adenocarcinoma (MAC); 〈 50%, adenocarcinoma with intermediated mucinous component (AIM); and without any mucinous component, nonmucinous adenocarcinoma (NMA). Clinicopathologic features, MSI status (N = 518), CpG island methylator phenotype (CIMP) (N = 322) BRAF mutation (N = 269) and disease-free survival (DFS) were compared. Results: Among a total of 521 pts, 27 (5.2%) had MAC, 41 (7.9%) AIM, and 453 (86.9%) NMA. MAC and AIM had higher frequency of proximal location and lower angiolymphatic invasion. MAC had higher proportion of T4 tumors. AIM had higher frequency of age ≥65 years and female. In terms of molecular characteristics, MAC and AIM showed similarly higher proportion of MSI-high and CIMP-high compared to NMA. BRAF mutation also showed similar trend. In contrast to the similarities between MAC and AIM, DFS was significantly different. MAC showed significantly worse DFS compared with AIM and NMA, whereas AIM and NMA showed similar DFS. Multivariate analysis revealed MAC as an independent negative prognostic factor of DFS (adjusted HR 7.96, 95% CI 3.76-16.8). Conclusions: AIM and MAC has distinct clinico-pathologic features and molecular characteristics compared with NMA. Only MAC but not AIM has an adverse prognostic impact on stage II or III CRC treated with adjuvant FOLFOX compared with NMA. [Table: see text]
