    Abstract: 9555 Background: For the treatment of advanced BRAF V600 -mutated melanoma, targeted therapy (BRAF/MEK-inhibition) is a standard of care. Encorafenib + binimetinib (EB) were approved in the EU in Sep 2018 and in Switzerland in Nov 2019, based on positive results from COLUMBUS (NCT01909453), with a median progression-free survival (PFS) of 14.9 mo (4-year PFS: 26%) and overall survival (OS) of 33.6 mo (4-year OS: 39%). As data from controlled trials are based on selected populations, BERING MELANOMA investigates the use of EB under real-world conditions in a broader population. Methods: BERING MELANOMA is an ongoing, multi-national, multi-center, prospective, longitudinal, non-interventional study. It analyzes the effectiveness, quality of life and tolerability of EB-treatment under real-world conditions (primary endpoint: 1-year PFS-rate), focusing on the first- (1L) and second-line setting and including an evaluation of the impact of prognostic factors. The project aims to enroll up to 750 patients (pts) in a total of 80 German, Austrian and Swiss sites with a study duration of 8 yrs. So far, from Oct 2019 to Jan 2021, 153 pts have been included. Pts with prior BRAF-/MEK-inhibition (except adjuvant use completed 〉 6 mo) and 〉 1 prior treatment line were excluded. Results: Here we present the first planned interim analysis based on the initial 100 enrolled pts (91 treated / 89 evaluable; median follow-up: 8.1 mo). This analysis set shows a median age of 63.0 yrs (range 29.0-88.0), 52% of pts were female. 81% presented with distant metastases (brain: 31%), with an involvement of ≥3 organ systems in 51% and an elevated LDH in 42%. 54% of pts underwent prior systemic therapy (adjuvant: 28%; 1L: 24%, with ipilimumab + nivolumab as main 1L-treatment: 52%). EB was mainly administered in the 1L-setting (65%). Main reasons for EB-selection were: physician's preference (37%), efficacy (34%), quality of life (21%). Median estimated EB treatment duration was 12.7 mo (95%CI 8.3-NE), median relative dose intensity was 100% for both drugs. Treatment adaptations were required in 34% of pts. Adverse events (AE) were reported in 76% of pts (grade 3/4: 26%). Main AE (≥10%, all grades) were: nausea (18%), diarrhea (17%), CK increase (15%), fatigue (11%), gamma-GT increase (11%). No fatal toxicities were observed. Conclusions: This first interim analysis of BERING MELANOMA shows an investigation of EB in a real-world population with advanced disease. Despite the poorer prognosis configuration as compared to the pivotal study, the observed treatment duration and tolerability profile are largely consistent with data derived from COLUMBUS without any new safety signals. The second interim analysis will be performed after enrollment of 200 pts and will include an initial analysis of effectiveness data. Clinical trial information: NCT04045691.

    Abstract: Massively parallel sequencing allows simultaneous testing of multiple genes associated with cancer susceptibility. Guidelines are available for variant classification; however, interpretation of these guidelines by laboratories and providers may differ and lead to conflicting reporting and, potentially, to inappropriate medical management. We describe conflicting variant interpretations between Clinical Laboratory Improvement Amendments–approved commercial clinical laboratories, as reported to the Prospective Registry of Multiplex Testing (PROMPT), an online genetic registry. Methods Clinical data and genetic testing results were gathered from 1,191 individuals tested for inherited cancer susceptibility and self-enrolled in PROMPT between September 2014 and October 2015. Overall, 518 participants (603 genetic variants) had a result interpreted by more than one laboratory, including at least one submitted to ClinVar, and these were used as the final cohort for the current analysis. Results Of the 603 variants, 221 (37%) were classified as a variant of uncertain significance (VUS), 191 (32%) as pathogenic, and 34 (6%) as benign. The interpretation differed among reporting laboratories for 155 (26%). Conflicting interpretations were most frequently reported for CHEK2 and ATM, followed by RAD51C, PALB2, BARD1, NBN, and BRIP1. Among all participants, 56 of 518 (11%) had a variant with conflicting interpretations ranging from pathogenic/likely pathogenic to VUS, a discrepancy that may alter medical management. Conclusions Conflicting interpretation of genetic findings from multiplex panel testing used in clinical practice is frequent and may have implications for medical management decisions.

    Abstract: 345 Background: Gastroesophageal junction cancer (GEJC) and gastric cancer (GC) are frequently studied together as one disease. Genomic profiles between the two disease sites have not been well characterized. We aimed to characterize molecular differences between the two disease sites. Methods: We collected data between January 2010 and December 2019 from a prospectively maintained database of GEJC and GC at our center. GEJC was defined according to the Siewert type 1 to 3 classification. Patients who underwent surgical resection and had MSK-IMPACT (MSK-Integrated Mutation Profiling of Actionable Cancer Targets) sequencing performed on their primary tumor were included in this analysis. Results: Two hundred and seventy-four samples were analyzed; 156 (56.9%) GEJC and 118 (43.1%) GC patients. Regarding molecular subtypes, the GEJC group had a higher frequency of chromosomally instable tumors compared to the GC cohort (55.1% vs. 25.4%, p 〈 0.001). The fraction of genome altered (FGA) was significantly higher in the GEJC group (p 〈 0.001). TP53 (75.3% vs. 31.9%, p 〈 0.001, q 〈 0.001), CDKN2A (17.1% vs. 4.3%, p = 0.002, q = 0.02), and MDM2 (6.8% vs. 0%, p = 0.007, q = 0.033) were more frequently altered in the GEJC group, whereas CDH1 (2.7% vs. 9.6%, p = 0.037, q = 0.118) and RHOA (0% vs. 6.4%, p = 0.003, q = 0.02) were more frequently altered in the GC group. The GEJC group also had a higher frequency of alterations in the cell cycle pathway compared to the GC patients (36.3% vs. 11.7%, p 〈 0.001, q 〈 0.001). Conclusions: There are distinct differences in genomic profiles between GEJC and GC with a higher frequency of mutations in TP53, CDKN2A, MDM2, and cell cycle pathway in the GEJC patients, that may have potential implications in evaluating optimal treatment strategies with targeted therapy.

    Abstract: Bevacizumab is an antibody that binds to vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and has activity in metastatic renal cell carcinoma (RCC). Interferon alfa (IFN) is a historic standard first-line treatment for RCC. A prospective, randomized phase III trial of bevacizumab plus IFN versus IFN monotherapy was conducted. Patients and Methods Patients with previously untreated, metastatic clear-cell RCC were randomly assigned to receive either bevacizumab (10 mg/kg intravenously every 2 weeks) plus IFN (9 million U subcutaneously three times weekly) or the same dose and schedule of IFN monotherapy in a multicenter phase III trial. The primary end point was overall survival (OS). Secondary end points were progression-free survival (PFS), objective response rate (ORR), and safety. Results Between October 2003 and July 2005, 732 patients were enrolled. The prespecified stopping rule for OS has not yet been reached. The median PFS was 8.5 months in patients receiving bevacizumab plus IFN (95% CI, 7.5 to 9.7 months) versus 5.2 months (95% CI, 3.1 to 5.6 months) in patients receiving IFN monotherapy (log-rank P 〈 .0001). The adjusted hazard ratio was 0.71 (95% CI, 0.61 to 0.83; P 〈 .0001). Bevacizumab plus IFN had a higher ORR as compared with IFN (25.5% [95% CI, 20.9% to 30.6%] v 13.1% [95% CI, 9.5% to 17.3%] ; P 〈 .0001). Overall toxicity was greater for bevacizumab plus IFN, including significantly more grade 3 hypertension (9% v 0%), anorexia (17% v 8%), fatigue (35% v 28%), and proteinuria (13% v 0%). Conclusion Bevacizumab plus IFN produces a superior PFS and ORR in untreated patients with metastatic RCC as compared with IFN monotherapy. Toxicity is greater in the combination therapy arm.

    Abstract: 358 Background: BRCA1, BRCA2, and PALB2 germline mutations are associated with an increased risk of PC. Other BRCA-associated cancers have demonstrated increased sensitivity to PARP inhibitors (PARPi) and early trials have shown activity of PARPi in untreated BRCAmut PC. We evaluated theactivity of V in patients with previously treated BRCA/PALB2mutPC. Methods: Eligibility: BRCA1/2, or PALB2mutPC, at least 1 and up to 2 prior treatment regimens, measurable stage III/IVPC; ECOG 0-1. Treatment Plan: V 300mg BID (N= 3 pts), then V 400mg BID day1- 28. Primary endpoint: RECIST 1.1 response rate (RR). Statistical plan: Single-arm, non-randomized, open-label, phase II, two-stage design, unacceptable RR 10%, promising 28%, type I, II error rates 10%. Secondary endpoints: progression-free survival (PFS), duration of response, overall survival, safety, tolerability and archival tumor analyses. Results: Between 05/12 and 12/13, N= 16 enrolled. Male= 8, Female= 8. Median age= 52 years (range 43- 77). BRCA1 mut=5. BRCA2 mut=11. N= 1AJCC stage III PC, N= 15 AJCC stage IV PC. N= 8 and N= 8 (50%) had 1 and 2 prior lines of therapy respectively. N= 13 (81%) received prior platinum therapy. Response: N= 1 unconfirmed PR (PR at 4 months (mo), POD at 6 mo), N= 4 stable disease (SD), N= 10 progressive disease (PD); N= 1 inevaluable (12 days of V only due to disease-related complications). Median PFS was 52 days (range 12 to 423). Three pts treated at 400mg V were dose-reduced for toxicity. Six pts had V related grade 3 toxicity including fatigue (N=3), hematologic (N=2) and nausea (N=1). No therapy-related grade 4-5 toxicities were observed. Conclusions: V was well tolerated. While no confirmed partial responses were observed, single-agent activity of V in previously treated PC was noted, and N= 4 (25%) remained on study with SD for ≥ 4mo (4, 6, 6, 9 mo). A randomized phase II trial evaluating cisplatin,gemcitabine +/- V is underway in untreated BRCA/PALB2mutPC (NCT01585805). Results of correlative studies will be presented.

    Abstract: To investigate the efficacy and safety of axitinib, an oral, potent, and selective inhibitor of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) receptors 1, 2, and 3 in patients with metastatic renal cell carcinoma (mRCC) refractory to prior therapies that included, but were not limited to, sorafenib. Patients and Methods In this multicenter, open-label, phase II study, patients with sorafenib-refractory mRCC received a starting dose of axitinib 5 mg orally twice daily. A one-arm, single-stage design was used to estimate the primary end point of objective response rate (ORR), defined by RECIST (Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors). Secondary end points included safety, duration of response, progression-free survival (PFS), overall survival (OS), and patient-reported outcomes. Results Of 62 patients recruited, 100% had received prior sorafenib, and 74.2% had received two or more prior systemic treatments. The axitinib dose was titrated to greater than 5 mg twice daily in 53.2% of patients, and 35.5% of patients had the dose modified to less than 5 mg twice daily. In 62 patients evaluable for response, the ORR was 22.6%, and the median duration of response was 17.5 months. Median PFS and OS times were 7.4 months (95% CI, 6.7 to 11.0 months) and 13.6 months (95% CI, 8.4 to 18.8 months), respectively. All-causality grade 3 to 4 adverse events included hand-foot syndrome (16.1%), fatigue (16.1%), hypertension (16.1%), dyspnea (14.5%), diarrhea (14.5%), dehydration (8.1%), and hypotension (6.5%). Conclusion Axitinib has antitumor activity in patients with mRCC refractory to prior VEGF-targeted therapy, including sorafenib. Toxicities were mild to moderate and were manageable. A randomized, phase III trial to compare axitinib with sorafenib in patients who have mRCC refractory to one prior first-line therapy regimen is underway.

    Abstract: TPS4144 Background: Germline mutations in BRCA1, 2 predispose to PC (Lal, G. Cancer Res, 2000). 5-8% PC have BRCA 1,2 mutations; higher in Ashkenazi Jewish (10-15%). Pre-clinical data demonstrates that platinums and poly-ADP ribose polymerase inhibitors (PARPi) have activity in BRCA-mutated PC models. Early clinical data supporting (Lowery, M. Oncol, 2011). We are evaluating the role of platinum agents and PARPi, veliparib (ABT-888), in BRCA or PALB2-mutated PC. Methods: Arm A, B: Includes non-randomized phase to optimize V dose combined with G, C (Arm A). Subsequently randomized phase II study will evaluate G, C +/- V. Primary endpoint: RECIST 1.1 response rate (RR) G, C, V (Arm A) and G, C (Arm B). Secondary endpoints: Progression-free survival, safety, disease-control rate, overall survival and correlatives involving pre, post biopsies to evaluate mechanisms of sensitivity, resistance to platinums, PARPi. Arm C: Evaluates single-agent V in previously-treated PC. Primary and secondary endpoints similar. Eligibility: BRCA, PALB2-mutated, measurable, stage III/IV PC; Untreated (Arm A, B), ≤ 2 lines therapy (Arm C); ECOG 0-1 (Arm A, B), ECOG 0-2 (Arm C). Treatment Plan: Arm A, B: V PO BID d1-12 (Arm A), q 3 weeks, G 600mg/m 2 IV, C 25mg/m 2 IV, both d3, 10, q 3 weeks (Arm A, B). Arm C: V 400mg PO BID d1-28 q 4 weeks. Biostatistics: Arms A, B: Simon’s 2-stage minimax design per arm. Unacceptable RR 10%, promising 30%, type I, II errors 10%. N= 16 stage I, +N= 9 (stage II). If ≥ 5/25, then promising. If both arms promising, option to add N= 10, allows distinction between RR 20% and 40%, 83% power. Arm C: Simon’s 2-stage, single-arm, uninteresting RR 10%, promising if ≥ 28%. N= 15 stage I, +N= 18 (stage II). Promising RR ≥ 6/33. Total N 47- 95. Contingency for slow accrual. Progress to Date: Accrual: Arm A (non-randomized): 13 screened, N= 5 enrolled. Arm C: 9 screened, N= 4 enrolled. Israeli, Canadian, other U.S. sites opening 2013. Funding and acknowledgements: National Cancer Institute, Lustgarten Foundation. NCT01585805.

    Abstract: Advanced-stage mycosis fungoides (MF; stage IIB to IV) and Sézary syndrome (SS) are aggressive lymphomas with a median survival of 1 to 5 years. Clinical management is stage based; however, there is wide range of outcome within stages. Published prognostic studies in MF/SS have been single-center trials. Because of the rarity of MF/SS, only a large collaboration would power a study to identify independent prognostic markers. Patients and Methods Literature review identified the following 10 candidate markers: stage, age, sex, cutaneous histologic features of folliculotropism, CD30 positivity, proliferation index, large-cell transformation, WBC/lymphocyte count, serum lactate dehydrogenase, and identical T-cell clone in blood and skin. Data were collected at specialist centers on patients diagnosed with advanced-stage MF/SS from 2007. Each parameter recorded at diagnosis was tested against overall survival (OS). Results Staging data on 1,275 patients with advanced MF/SS from 29 international sites were included for survival analysis. The median OS was 63 months, with 2- and 5-year survival rates of 77% and 52%, respectively. The median OS for patients with stage IIB disease was 68 months, but patients diagnosed with stage III disease had slightly improved survival compared with patients with stage IIB, although patients diagnosed with stage IV disease had significantly worse survival (48 months for stage IVA and 33 months for stage IVB). Of the 10 variables tested, four (stage IV, age 〉 60 years, large-cell transformation, and increased lactate dehydrogenase) were independent prognostic markers for a worse survival. Combining these four factors in a prognostic index model identified the following three risk groups across stages with significantly different 5-year survival rates: low risk (68%), intermediate risk (44%), and high risk (28%). Conclusion To our knowledge, this study includes the largest cohort of patients with advanced-stage MF/SS and identifies markers with independent prognostic value, which, used together in a prognostic index, may be useful to stratify advanced-stage patients.

The primary end point was overall survival (OS). Secondary end points were progression-free survival (PFS), objective response rate, and safety. Results Seven hundred thirty-two patients were enrolled. The median OS time was 18.3 months (95% CI, 16.5 to 22.5 months) for bevacizumab plus IFN-α and 17.4 months (95% CI, 14.4 to 20.0 months) for IFN-α monotherapy (unstratified log-rank P = .097). Adjusting on stratification factors, the hazard ratio was 0.86 (95% CI, 0.73 to 1.01; stratified log-rank P = .069) favoring bevacizumab plus IFN-α. There was significantly more grade 3 to 4 hypertension (HTN), anorexia, fatigue, and proteinuria for bevacizumab plus IFN-α. Patients who developed HTN on bevacizumab plus IFN-α had a significantly improved PFS and OS versus patients without HTN. Conclusion OS favored the bevacizumab plus IFN-α arm but did not meet the predefined criteria for significance. HTN may be a biomarker of outcome with bevacizumab plus IFN-α.
