    Abstract: We compared two induction regimens, idarubicin (12 mg/m 2 /d for 3 days) versus high-dose daunorubicin (90 mg/m 2 /d for 3 days), in young adults with newly diagnosed acute myeloid leukemia (AML). Patients and Methods A total of 299 patients (149 randomly assigned to cytarabine plus idarubicin [AI] and 150 assigned to cytarabine plus high-dose daunorubicin [AD] ) were analyzed. All patients received cytarabine (200 mg/m 2 /d for 7 days). Results Complete remission (CR) was induced in 232 patients (77.6%), with no difference in CR rates between the AI and AD arms (80.5% v 74.7%, respectively; P = .224). At a median follow-up time of 34.9 months, survival and relapse rates did not differ between the AI and AD arms (4-year overall survival, 51.1% v 54.7%, respectively; P = .756; cumulative incidence of relapse, 35.2% v 25.1%, respectively; P = .194; event-free survival, 45.5% v 50.8%, respectively; P = .772). Toxicity profiles were also similar in the two arms. Interestingly, overall and event-free survival times of patients with FLT3 internal tandem duplication (ITD) mutation were significantly different (AI v AD: median overall survival, 15.5 months v not reached, respectively; P = .030; event-free survival, 11.9 months v not reached, respectively; P = .028). Conclusion This phase III trial comparing idarubicin with high-dose daunorubicin did not find significant differences in CR rates, relapse, and survival. Significant interaction between the treatment arm and the FLT3-ITD mutation was found, and high-dose daunorubicin was more effective than idarubicin in patients with FLT3-ITD mutation.

    Abstract: 697 Background: Early detection of cancer and improved treatment have led to higher survival rates and an increasing number of long-term survivors in oncology practice. But there are few longitudinal Quality of Life (QoL) studies in patients who experienced cancer surgery. To investigate the longitudinal change in QoL of elderly gastrointestinal cancer patients, we designed prospective study for QoL in resected gastrointestinal cancer patients. Methods: A prospective longitudinal cohort study was designed. Patients from Hallym, Ajou, and Samsung medical center in South Korea were enrolled consecutively from February to September of 2012. Patients over 55 years old who received curative resection due to gastrointestinal cancer were included. They were given questionnaires every 6 months since then, and we’ve been using EORTC QLQ C-30 as quality of life scale. We selected patients using propensity score matching(PSM). The mean scores of the patients completing the interview at the 3 time points were compared using mixed model. Results: A total of 353 patients with gastrointestinal cancer were interviewed at baseline. We dichotomized patients into 2 groups ( 〈 70 years old vs. 〉 = 70 years old). There were significant difference in ECOG performance status between 2 groups. After balancing with PSM, we selected 272 patients. Overall QoL did not show significant difference between 2 groups at baseline interview. After repeated interview, the score of global health status, physical functioning, and pain showed significantly higher in younger group ( 〈 70 years old). But other items didn't show significant difference.Especially patients in both group felt financial difficulty increased. Conclusions: Although the elderly gastrointestinal cancer patients showed lower score in global health status, physical function, they preserved relatively well in other functional status after curative surgery. Most patients felt increased financial burden.

    Abstract: e15778 Background: Gemcitabine-based chemotherapy is considered as a standard front-line treatment for patients with advanced pancreatic cancer. Although addition of erlotinib or S-1 to gemcitabine has yielded better outcomes, it has showed just modest improvement in survival. To overcome this limitation, we evaluated the efficacy and safety of the combination of gemcitabine, erlotinib, and S-1 for the treatment of advanced pancreatic cancer. Methods: Chemotherapy-naïve patients with pathologically proven locally advanced, recurrent or metastatic pancreatic adenocarcinoma were assessed for eligibility. Gemcitabine at 1,000 mg/m 2 was administered intravenously on day 1, and 8, erlotinib at 100 mg/day was administered on days 1-21, and S-1 at 60 mg/m 2 was administered on days 1-14 every 21 days and continued to maximum of 8 cycles of treatment. Dose escalation of S-1 to 80 mg/m 2 was permitted from second cycle for pre-defined tolerable patients. Results: Thirty-seven patients (median age 61.5 years) were enrolled. A total of 140 cycles of chemotherapy were administered (median of 3.8; range 1–8 cycles). Toxicities were evaluated in 36 patients, and the responses were evaluated in 32 patients. Major grade 3/4 toxicities included neutropenia (25%), febrile neutropenia (2.8%), fatigue (22.2%), infection (8.3%), vomiting (5.6%), and mucositis (5.6%). The overall response rate was 12.5% [95% confidence interval (CI), 5.1-28.9%] and disease control rate was 71.9% (95% CI, 56.8-86.3%). The median progression-free survival and overall survival were 3.7 months (95% CI, 2.8-4.6 months) and 6.7 months (95% CI, 3.4-9.9 months), respectively. Conclusions: The combination of gemcitabine, erlotinib, and S-1 provided an acceptable toxicity profile and modest clinical benefits in patients with advanced pancreatic cancer. Clinical trial information: NCT01693419.

    Abstract: Adjuvant chemotherapy after D2 gastrectomy is standard for resectable locally advanced gastric cancer (LAGC) in Asia. Based on positive findings for perioperative chemotherapy in European phase III studies, the phase III PRODIGY study (ClinicalTrials.gov identifier: NCT01515748 ) investigated whether neoadjuvant docetaxel, oxaliplatin, and S-1 (DOS) followed by surgery and adjuvant S-1 could improve outcomes versus standard treatment in Korean patients with resectable LAGC. PATIENTS AND METHODS Patients 20-75 years of age, with Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance status 0-1, and with histologically confirmed primary gastric or gastroesophageal junction adenocarcinoma (clinical TNM staging: T2-3N+ or T4Nany) were randomly assigned to D2 surgery followed by adjuvant S-1 (40-60 mg orally twice a day, days 1-28 every 6 weeks for eight cycles; SC group) or neoadjuvant DOS (docetaxel 50 mg/m 2 , oxaliplatin 100 mg/m 2 intravenously day 1, S-1 40 mg/m 2 orally twice a day, days 1-14 every 3 weeks for three cycles) before D2 surgery, followed by adjuvant S-1 (CSC group). The primary objective was progression-free survival (PFS) with CSC versus SC. Two sensitivity analyses were performed: intent-to-treat and landmark PFS analysis. RESULTS Between January 18, 2012, and January 2, 2017, 266 patients were randomly assigned to CSC and 264 to SC at 18 Korean study sites; 238 and 246 patients, respectively, were treated (full analysis set). Follow-up was ongoing in 176 patients at data cutoff (January 21, 2019; median follow-up 38.6 months [interquartile range, 23.5-62.1]). CSC improved PFS versus SC (adjusted hazard ratio, 0.70; 95% CI, 0.52 to 0.95; stratified log-rank P = .023). Sensitivity analyses confirmed these findings. Treatments were well tolerated. Two grade 5 adverse events (febrile neutropenia and dyspnea) occurred during neoadjuvant treatment. CONCLUSION PRODIGY showed that neoadjuvant DOS chemotherapy, as part of perioperative chemotherapy, is effective and tolerable in Korean patients with LAGC.

    Abstract: 3606 Background: In LARC, preop CRT followed by total mesorectal excision (TME) is a standard of care. Recently consolidation chemotherapy after CRT was shown to be safe and to improve pathologic complete response (pCR) rate in LARC. We aimed to evaluate downstaging (DS) rate (the proportion of ypT0-2N0M0) of CRT followed by consolidation chemotherapy (capecitabine and oxaliplatin: CapOx) compared to that of CRT alone. Methods: Patients (pts) with adenocarcinoma of rectum(≤ 12cm from anal verge), ECOG PS 0 or 1, and cT3-4NxM0 were enrolled. CRT (50-50.4Gy/25-28fx) with Cap (825mg/m 2 /day for 5 days per week throughout CRT) followed by TME was planned in Arm A (control arm). In Arm B, 2 cycles of CapOx was given a week after completion of CRT before TME (Cap 850mg/m 2 /day from day 1 to day 14; Ox 100mg/m 2 on day 1; q 3w). 110 pts (55 per arm) were needed to show improvement of DS rate in per-protocol population (PP set) from 30% to 50% in arm B with one-sided α = 0.15, 1- β = 0.85, and follow-up loss in 5%. Results: From 9/2014 Sep to 2/2016, 110 (56 in arm A; 54 in arm B) were enrolled; 108 (55 in arm A; 53 in arm B) were randomized and started study treatment. Median age was 56 years; male/ECOG PS 1/cT4 was 76%/70%/18%. 100 pts (54 in arm A; 46 in arm B) completed CRT ± CapOx and surgery (R0 or R1 resection), while 8 (1 in arm A, 7 in arm B) dropped out mainly due to consent withdrawal. 2 of each arm underwent non-TME; that leaves 96 (52 in arm A and 44 in arm B) in PP set. Relative dose intensity of CapOx was 96% (Cap) and 95% (Ox). The main treatment outcome is described in table. The mean interval days between completion of CRT and surgery was significantly longer in arm B (52.9 vs 61.3, p 〈 0.0001). Conclusions: 2 cycles of CapOx after completion of CRT was feasible and safe, and it showed improvement in DS rate, even with high dropout rates (13%). Clinical trial information: NCT01952951.

    Abstract: 4067 Background: The phase 3 PRODIGY study compared neoadjuvant docetaxel, oxaliplatin and S-1 (DOS) chemotherapy followed by surgery followed by adjuvant S-1 with surgery followed by adjuvant S-1 for Korean patients with resectable locally advanced gastric cancer (LAGC) (Kang et al. J Clin Oncol. 2021). The planned analysis of the primary endpoint of PRODIGY showed that the addition of neoadjuvant DOS to surgery and adjuvant S-1 improved progression-free survival (PFS). We herein report the long-term follow-up outcomes, including overall survival (OS), from this trial. Methods: Patients with histologically confirmed primary gastric or gastroesophageal junction adenocarcinoma with clinical T2-3N+ or T4Nany disease were enrolled from 18 Korean study sites. Patients were randomly assigned to D2 surgery followed by adjuvant S-1 (40–60 mg orally twice a day, days 1–28 q6w for eight cycles; SC group) or neoadjuvant DOS (docetaxel 50 mg/m 2 , oxaliplatin 100 mg/m 2 intravenously day 1, S-1 40 mg/m 2 orally twice a day, days 1–14 q3w for three cycles) before D2 surgery, followed by adjuvant S-1 (CSC group). The primary endpoint was PFS. OS was the secondary endpoint. This analysis presents the final assessment of the outcomes after 5 years. Results: A total of 266 and 264 patients were randomly assigned to the CSC and SC arms, respectively, among which 238 and 246 patients were treated and included in the full analysis set. As of the data cut-off date (SEP-2022), the median follow-up duration of the surviving patients was 99.5 months (range, 68.6–127.7 months). As compared to SC, CSC significantly increased the OS (adjusted hazard ratio, 0.72; 95% CI, 0.54 to 0.97; stratified log-rank P=0.028) with a 5-year OS rate of 66.8% and 63.0% for the CSC and SC arms, respectively. CSC also significantly improved the PFS (adjusted hazard ratio, 0.71; 95% CI, 0.53 to 0.94; stratified log-rank P=0.019) with a 5-year PFS rate of 60.6% and 56.9% for the CSC and SC arms, respectively. Conclusions: The addition of neoadjuvant docetaxel, oxaliplatin and S-1 (DOS) chemotherapy, as part of perioperative chemotherapy, to surgery and adjuvant S-1 prolonged the OS and PFS of Asian patients with LAGC relative to patients treated with surgery and adjuvant S-1 alone. Neoadjuvant DOS chemotherapy should be considered one of the standard treatment options for patients with LAGC in Asia. Clinical trial information: NCT01515748 .

    Abstract: 30 Background: The phase 3 PRODIGY study compared neoadjuvant docetaxel, oxaliplatin and S-1 (DOS) chemotherapy followed by surgery followed by adjuvant S-1 with surgery followed by adjuvant S-1 for Korean patients with resectable locally advanced gastric cancer (LAGC) (Kang et al.

CSC also significantly improved the PFS (adjusted hazard ratio, 0.71; 95% CI, 0.53 to 0.94; stratified log-rank P=0.019) with a 5-year PFS rate of 60.6% and 56.9% for the CSC and SC arms, respectively. Among the patient subgroups determined based on different clinical T/N categories, a patient subgroup with cT4Nany disease showed the greatest relative risk reduction in OS with neoadjuvant chemotherapy (HR 0.69, 95% CI 0.51–0.95). Conclusions: The addition of neoadjuvant docetaxel, oxaliplatin and S-1 (DOS) chemotherapy, as part of perioperative chemotherapy, to surgery and adjuvant S-1 prolonged the OS and PFS of Asian patients with LAGC relative to patients treated with surgery and adjuvant S-1 alone. Neoadjuvant DOS chemotherapy should be considered one of the standard treatment options for patients with LAGC in Asia. Unlike in the Western setting, neoadjuvant chemotherapy may be preferentially considered for patients with cT4 disease in Asia. Clinical trial information: NCT01515748 .

    Abstract: The combination of oxaliplatin and fluoropyrimidine for 6 months is one of the standard options for adjuvant therapy for high-risk stage II and III colorectal cancers (CRCs). The optimal duration of oxaliplatin to diminish neurotoxicity without compromising efficacy needs to be clarified. PATIENTS AND METHODS This open-label, randomized, phase III, noninferiority trial randomly assigned patients with high-risk stage II and III CRC to 3 and 6 months of oxaliplatin with 6 months of fluoropyrimidine groups (3- and 6-month arms, respectively). The primary end point was disease-free survival (DFS), and the noninferiority margin was a hazard ratio (HR) of 1.25. RESULTS In total, 1,788 patients were randomly assigned to the 6-month (n = 895) and 3-month (n = 893) arms, and 83.6% in the 6-month arm and 85.7% in the 3-month arm completed the treatment. The neuropathy rates with any grade were higher in the 6-month arm than in the 3-month arm (69.5% v 58.3%; P 〈 .0001). The 3-year DFS rates were 83.7% and 84.7% in the 6-month and 3-month arms, respectively, with an HR of 0.953 (95% CI, 0.769 to 1.180; test for noninferiority, P = .0065) within the noninferiority margin. Among patients with stage III CRC treated by capecitabine plus oxaliplatin, the 3-year DFS of the 3-month arm was noninferior as compared with that of the 6-month arm with an HR of 0.713 (95% CI, 0.530 to 0.959; P = .0009). However, among patients with high-risk stage II and stage III CRC treated by infusional fluorouracil, leucovorin, and oxaliplatin, the noninferiority of the 3-month arm compared with the 6-month arm was not proven. CONCLUSION This study suggests that adding 3 months of oxaliplatin to 6 months of capecitabine could be considered an alternative adjuvant treatment for stage III CRC (ClinicalTrials.gov identifier: NCT01092481 ).

    Abstract: 4551 Background: Neoadjuvant or perioperative chemotherapy has been accepted as a standard treatment globally in patients (pts) with locally advanced gastric cancer (LAGC). In PRODIGY phase III study (n = 530), we have demonstrated that neoadjuvant chemotherapy with DOS regimen (docetaxel, oxaliplatin, S-1) led to significant tumor downstaging and improved PFS in Korean LAGC pts (Kang, et al. ESMO 2019). Although CT has been performed to re-stage the tumor after neoadjuvant chemotherapy, there has been a relative paucity of diagnostic accuracy data. This study is to evaluate the diagnostic performance of restaging of LAGC after neoadjuvant chemotherapy using CT in PRODIGY study population. Methods: Of 266 pts, who had been diagnosed LAGC of T2-4 or N+ stage as assessed with CT and randomized to neoadjuvant chemotherapy arm (CSC) in PRODIGY study, 214 pts underwent gastrectomy were included in this analysis. The post-chemotherapy T- and N- stage was determined based on CT scan taken just prior to surgery and compared with the pathologic stage (AJCC 7th edition). Two experienced radiologists independently evaluated depth of primary tumor and reached consensus if any discrepancy between two readers. Diameter of short axis of the largest regional lymph node was measured to predict metastatic lymph node. Result of histopathologic T- and N-staging using surgical specimen was used as reference standard. Results: The study cohort consisted of pathologic T0 (n = 22), T1(n = 39), T2(n = 31), T3(n = 79), and T4(n = 43). The overall diagnostic accuracy of CT was 45%. For each T-stage, accuracy of T0,T1,T2,T3, and T4 was 0%, 26%, 29%, 55% and 79%, respectively. Rate of over- and under- staging was 47% and 8%, respectively. Accuracy for prediction of downstaging to early gastric cancer (T0-T1) was 83%. Interobserver agreement of T-staging was moderate (k = 0.41). There were 98 patients of N+ and 116 patients of N- at histopathology. Area under the curve of receiver operating characteristics to differentiate lymph node metastasis was 0.63. Sensitivity and specificity of size criteria of the largest lymph node (cut off value: 〉 6mm, 〉 7mm, and 〉 8mm) to predict pathologic N+ were 90% and 17%, 78% and 34%, and 68% and 51%, respectively. Conclusions: Re-staging using CT after neoadjuvant chemotherapy showed suboptimal accuracy and over-staged residual tumor. However, it predicted downstaging of gastric cancer with high accuracy.

    Abstract: e14580 Background: TS-1 has shown good efficacy against unresectable advanced gastric cancer (AGC). Conventionally TS-1 containing chemotherapy (CTx) is performed on 5-weekly or 6-weekly basis. We lack robust evidence for the efficacy and safety of 3-weekly TS-1 containing CTx. In Korea, 3-weekly TS-1 containing CTx can be used as off-label under permission of Health Insurance Review and Assessment service (HIRA). We and HIRA conducted this study to confirm the efficacy and tolerability of 3-weekly TS-1 containing CTx in unresectable AGC. Methods: We retrospectively analyzed patients with unresectable AGC who received 3-weekly TS-1 containing CTx between June 2007 and January 2011. In 3-weekly TS-1 monotherapy, TS-1 40-60mg depending on patient’s body surface area was administered orally twice a day for 14 days followed by a 1-week rest every 3 weeks. In 3-weekly TS-1/cisplatin combination CTx, TS-1 40mg/m 2 was given orally twice a day for 14 days followed by 1-week rest and cisplatin 60 mg/m 2 on day 1 was given by intravenous infusion every 3 weeks. Results: A total of 1372 patients (TS-1 monotherapy: 265 (19.3%), TS-1/cisplatin : 1107 (80.7%)) were enrolled from 31 institutions. Response rate of 3-weekly TS-1 monotherapy was 18.1%. Progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) were 5.2 months (95% C.I., 4.5-5.9) and 14.3 months (95% C.I., 10.6-17.9), respectively. Response rate of 3-weekly TS-1/cisplatin was 29.4%. PFS and OS of 3-weekly TS-1/cisplatin were 6.8 months (95% C.I., 6.3-7.4) and 16.1 months (95% C.I., 14.4-17.9) respectively. Common toxicities of TS-1 monotherapy included nausea/vomiting (N/V) (13.6%), anemia (13.2%) and neutropenia (10.2%). However, the incidences of more grade 3/4 toxicities were less than 3.0%. All grades of neutropenia, N/V and anemia occurred in 35.4%, 21.1% and 13.3% of patients receiving 3-weekly TS-1/cisplatin. However, grade 3/4 toxicities including neutropenia, N/V and anemia occurred in only 17.8%, 3.0% and 2.9%.
