    Abstract: e15570 Background: Vascular endothelial growth factor-A (VEGF-A) and VEGF recepter-2 (VEGFR-2) axis is known to induce Tregs in tumor bearing mice. Ramucirumab (RAM), a monoclonal antibody for VEGFR-2, was recently approved for patients with AGC. However, little is known about the influence of RAM on Tregs in TILs from AGC patients. Methods: Patients with AGC who had been planned to receive chemotherapy containing RAM were prospectively enrolled for this study from January 2016 to August 2016. Paired samples were obtained from primary tumor at pre- and post-RAM therapy to analyze immune profiles of TILs using flow cytometry assay. Results: A total of 17 patients were analyzed. Median age was 68 years old (range, 46-79). All patients received one or more previous chemotherapy. RAM containing regimens included RAM+paclitaxel (n = 13), RAM monotherapy (n = 3) and RAM+irinotecan (n = 2). FOXP3 high CD45RA - CD4 + T cells (effector Tregs: eTregs) in CD4 + T cells was significantly decreased after RAM therapy compared with that in baseline (mean, 19.5% vs.13.6%, P = 0.036). In contrast, no significant change of CD8 + T cells was observed (mean, 36.7% vs. 36.0%, P = 0.86). Expression of programmed cell death-1 (PD-1) on CD8 + T cells was tended to be decreased after RAM therapy. Conclusions: eTregs in TILs was suggested to be decreased after RAM-containing therapy which warrants further evaluation in a larger cohorts. This observation might be a rationale to use RAM as an immunomodulator in combination of immune checkpoint inhibitors for AGC.

    Abstract: 98 Background: Ramucirumab (RAM), a monoclonal antibody against VEGFR2, was recently approved for the treatment of advanced gastric cancer (GC). However, little is known about the immunological effects in advanced GC patients. Methods: Patients with advanced GC who had been planned to receive chemotherapy containing RAM were prospectively enrolled for this study from January 2016 to September 2016. Paired samples were obtained from peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) and tumor infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs) in primary tumors pre- and post-RAM therapy to investigate immune profiles. Results: A total of 59 PBMCs and TILs from 18 patients were collected. Higher frequencies of FOXP3 high CD45RA - CD4 + T cells (effector regulatory T cells: eTregs) were detected in TILs compared with PBMCs (19.05±10.48% vs 1.89±1.0%, P 〈 0.0001), and the presence of high eTreg in TILs was not reflected in PBMCs. eTregs of TILs, but not of PBMC were significantly decreased after RAM-containing therapies (22.67±11.19% vs. 16.33±8.44%, P = 0.034). Expressions of immune checkpoint (IC) molecules (PD-1, CTLA-4, LAG-3, and ICOS) were much higher in TILs than those in PBMCs, and all these molecules exhibited higher expressions on eTregs than on CD8 + T cells. Among them, ICOS was specifically expressed by eTregs in TILs. PD-1 + CD8 + T cells in TILs were significantly decreased after RAM-containing therapies (54.99±19.06% vs. 39.23±17.15%, P = 0.0005), but not in PBMC. Patients with partial responses had significantly higher frequency of eTreg in pre-treatment TIL than those with progression disease (32.56±12.11% vs. 14.83±3.18%, P = 0.036). Furthermore, patients with high eTreg frequency had significantly longer progression-free survival than those with low frequency (161 days vs. 76 days, P = 0.024). Conclusions: There was significant difference in immune profile between PBMC and TIL in GC patients. eTregs and PD-1 expression on CD8 + T cells in TILs, not in PBMCs were decreased after RAM-containing therapies. This observation suggests the importance of TIL analyses and might be a rationale to use RAM as an immunomodulator in combination with IC inhibitors.

    Abstract: 3606 Background: Chemoradiotherapy (CRT) with surgery (S) is standard for patients (pts) with locally-advanced rectal cancer (LARC), and nivolumab (nivo) is active in microsatellite instability-high (MSI-H) metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC). We studied nivo and radical S following CRT (50.4 Gy with capecitabine 1,650 mg/m 2 ) in T 3–4 N any M 0 LARC. Methods: Phase I included testing of a recommended phase II dosing schedule (RP2S). Efficacy and safety were studied in phase II pts and those given RP2S in phase I. In Cohort A-1, for microsatellite stable (MSS) LARC pts, the primary endpoint was centrally confirmed pathologic complete response (pCR) rate using AJCC tumor regression grading. The estimated required sample size assuming null and alternative hypotheses pCR = 10% and 30% was 37 pts, with a 1-sided alpha of 5% and power of 90%. Cohort A-2 was exploratory and included a maximum of 5 MSI-H pts. Results: Nivo 240 mg q2 weeks x 5 cycles, following CRT but pre-S, was the RP2S. From 1/17 to 6/18, 37 pts were enrolled in Cohort A-1. Eleven pts (30%; 90% CI 18-44%) showed pCR (AJCC grade (gr) 0). Including the 3 pts (8%) graded AJCC 1, 14 (38%) had major pathologic responses. In addition, clinical CR was observed in 1 pt (3%) refusing S after nivo. Both MSI-H LARC Cohort A-2 pts showed pCRs. Immune-related severe adverse events were observed in 2 pts (gr 3 myasthenia and gr 2 interstitial nephritis); both fully recovered and had S. No treatment-related deaths were observed. pCR rates of 60% (6/10) and 19% (5/27) (p = 0.038, Fisher exact test) were seen in pts with tumor cells with PD-L1 ≥1% and 〈 1% IHC staining, respectively, performed on biopsy samples taken pre-CRT. Rates of 62% (8/13) and 10% (1/10) (p = 0.029) were seen in 23 pts with samples analyzable by flow cytometry, according to CD8 + lymphocyte /regulatory T cell (CD8/T reg ) ratios ≥2 and 〈 2, respectively. Conclusions: A promising pCR rate of 30%, with mild toxicity, was shown in MSS LARC pts treated with nivo plus radical S. PD-L1 expression and elevated CD8/T reg ratio may be better predictors of nivo benefit, warranting further study in a larger cohort. Clinical trial information: NCT02948348.

    Abstract: 100 Background: In VOLTAGE-A, chemoradiotherapy (CRT; 50.4Gy with capecitabine, 1,650mg/m 2 ) followed by five cycles of consolidation nivolumab (nivo) (240mg q2 weeks) showed 30% pathological complete response [pCR; AJCC tumor regression grade (TRG) 0] and 38% major pathological responses (AJCC TRG 0-1) in patients with microsatellite stable (MSS) locally advanced primary rectal cancer (LARC). In addition, 60% pCR was observed in patients with microsatellite instability-high (MSI-H) LARC. In this study, we aimed to determine the predictive biomarkers for efficacy of sequential preoperative CRT and consolidation nivo. Methods: Serial tumor biopsies were performed at four time points:pre-CRT; post-CRT; post-3 cycles of nivo; and pre-surgery. We analyzed the immune status of the patients by flow cytometry using the collected tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs) dissociated from tumor samples. Whole exome and RNA sequencing analyses were conducted using the extracted DNA and RNA from tumor, respectively. The PD-L1 status of tumor samples was also evaluated by in vitro diagnostic immunohistochemistry staining. Results: Of the 38 MSS patients whose PD-L1 tumor proportion score (TPS) was analyzable in pre-CRT samples, the pCR rates were 67% (6/9) and 17% (5/29) in positive (≥1%) and negative PD-L1 status (p = 0.009), respectively. Among the 24 MSS patients whose samples were serially collected, the pCR rates according to CD8 + T cells/effector regulatory T cells (CD8/eTreg) ratio in TILs of pre-CRT samples ≥2.5 and 〈 2.5 were 78% (7/9) and 13% (2/15), respectively (p = 0.003). The CD8/eTreg ratio in TILs was consistently high in patients with pCR during the study treatments. Ki-67 and PD-1 expression by CD8 + T cells in TILs was significantly high in pre-CRT samples from patients TRG 0-1. Conversely, in patients with TRG 2-3, CTLA-4 expression by both CD4 + T cells and CD8 + T cells in TILs was significantly high after five cycles of nivo, suggesting the potential resistance mechanisms of nivo monotherapy. Of the 21 MSS patients whose consensus molecular subtype (CMS) was analyzable, those with CMS1 and CMS3 tumors achieved 100% (2/2) and 60% (4/6) TRG 0-1, respectively. In contrast, patients with CMS2 and CMS4 tumors achieved 43% (3/7) and 29% (2/7) TRG 0-1, respectively. The tumor mutational burden (TMB) of pre-CRT samples in five MSI-H patients was higher than that in the 24 MSS patients (median: 13.2 vs. 0.99 mutation/Mbp, p 〈 0.0001). Among MSS patients, TMB was higher in patients with TRG 0-1 than in patients with TRG 2-3 (median: 1.45 vs. 0.84 mutation/Mbp, p = 0.016). Conclusions: Positive PD-L1 TPS; high CD8/eTreg ratio; Ki-67, PD-1, and CTLA-4 expression by CD8 + T cells in TILs; CMS 1 or 3; and high TMB can be good predictors of efficacy of preoperative CRT followed by nivo. Clinical trial information: NCT02948348.

    Abstract: 4100 Background: Chemoradiotherapy (CRT) followed by radical surgery (S) is standard therapy for patients (pts) with locally advanced rectal cancer (LARC). Sequential use of an anti-PD-1 antibody after radiation demonstrates synergistic effects in in vivo models, and an anti-PD-1 antibody is effective in pts with microsatellite instability-high (MSI-H) metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC). We studied nivolumab (nivo) and radical S following CRT (50.4 Gy with capecitabine 1,650 mg/m 2 ) in T 3–4 N any M 0 LARC. Methods: After the quality-assured CRT, 240 mg q2 weeks x 5 cycles of nivo and radical S were investigated. In cohort A-1, for pts with microsatellite stable (MSS) LARC, the primary endpoint was a centrally confirmed pathological complete response (pCR) rate using AJCC tumor regression grading. The estimated required sample size assuming null and alternative hypotheses pCR = 10% and 30% was 37 pts, with a 1-sided alpha of 5% and power of 90%. In Cohort A-2, 5 pts with MSI-H LARC were included in an exploratory manner. Results: From Jan/2017 to Oct/2019, a targeted number of pts was included and assessed. In cohort A-1, 30% (11/37; 90% CI 18-44%) of pCR (AJCC grade (gr) 0) rate and 38% (14/37) of major pathological response (MPR) (AJCC gr 0+1) rate were observed. Clinical CR was observed in one additional pt (3%) refusing S after nivo. In cohort A-2, 60% (3/5) of pCR rate and 60% (3/5) of MPR rate were observed. As of Jan/2020, only 2 pts (1 local and 1 metastatic) in cohort A-1 and none in cohort A-2 recurred. Immune-related severe adverse events were observed in 3 pts (gr 3 myasthenia, gr 3 interstitial nephritis, and gr 2 peripheral motor neuropathy); all fully recovered and received radical S. During the follow-up period, one additional pt with gr 2 colitis was observed. No treatment-related deaths were observed. Conclusions: Promising pCR rates of 30% and 60%, with mild toxicities, were shown in MSS and MSI-H LARC pts treated with nivo plus radical S after CRT, suggesting the candidate therapy for the future non-surgical approach. Clinical trial information: NCT02948348 .

    Abstract: 107 Background: The anti–PD-1 antibody pembrolizumab (P) provides response rates of 28-57% in patients (pts) with MSI-H metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC) vs 0% in those with non-MSI-H cancers. STAT3 has been previously reported as a potential key driver of immune evasion. This study investigates efficacy and safety for the combination of BBI608 (napabucasin), which blocks phosphorylated STAT3 and downregulates IDO1 and PD-L1, with P, in pts with mCRC. BBI608 480 mg BID with P was determined as the recommended phase II dose in phase I. Methods: Phase II included Cohorts A (MSI-H) and B (non-MSI-H). Pts with mCRC not responding to or intolerant of standard chemotherapies were enrolled. The primary endpoint was immune-related objective response rate (irORR), according to irRECIST. The sample size for Cohort A (10 pts) was derived in an exploratory manner. In Cohort B, assuming null and alternative hypotheses of irORR = 5% and 20% led to an estimated required sample size of 40 pts, with a 1-sided alpha of 5% and power of 90%. Genomic profiles and the consensus molecular subtypes (CMS) of colorectal cancer were determined by whole exome sequencing and RNA sequencing as previously described. Results: From Feb/2017 to Jun/2018, 10 pts were enrolled in Cohort A and 40 in Cohort B. The irORR was 50% (5 of 10 pts) in Cohort A and 10% (95% CI 2.8 to 23.7) (4 of 40 pts) in Cohort B. Of evaluable 19 pts for CMS classification in Cohort B, CMS1, CMS2, CMS3, and CMS4 were detected in 3, 6, 4, and 6 cases, respectively. The irORR was 33% (1 of 3 pts), 0% (0 of 6 pts), 25% (1 of 4 pts), 33% (2 of 6 pts) in CMS1, CMS2, CMS3, and CMS4, respectively. One CMS3 patient with partial response had POLE mutation, while 1 CMS1 and 2 CMS4 pts with partial response did not. The most common grade 3 or higher treatment-related adverse events included fever (10%) in Cohort A, and diarrhea (5%) and appetite loss (7.5%) in Cohort B, without unexpected safety signals. No treatment-related deaths occurred. Conclusions: BBI608 with P showed encouraging anti-tumor activity with acceptable toxicity for non-MSI-H mCRC pts as well as MSI-H mCRC pts. Impact of CMS on the efficacies of this combination warrants further investigation in the additional cohort of this study. Clinical trial information: NCT02851004.

    Abstract: 4040 Background: Recently, anti-programmed death 1 (PD-1) or its ligand (PD-L1) antibodies have shown promising activities in metastatic gastric cancer (MGC). However, little is known about detailed clinicopathological features of PD-L1 expression in patients (pts) with MGC. Methods: Pts with histologically confirmed MGC were eligible for this prospective observational study. PD-L1 expression on tumor cell (TC) or inflammatory cell (IC) and mismatch repair (MMR) were analyzed by immunohistochemistry (IHC). Epstein–Barr virus (EBV) was detected by in situ hybridization. The expressions of tyrosine kinase receptors (RTKs) such as HER2, EGFR and MET and cancer genome alterations were also evaluated by IHC or next generation sequencing. Results: A total of 237 pts were enrolled from September 2015 to December 2016. Samples of 199 (84.0%) pts were obtained from biopsy. PD-L1 expression on TC and IC was positive in 27 (11.4%) and 167 pts (70.5%), respectively. One hundred and seventy-one pts (72.2%) had positive PD-L1 expression on either TC or IC. MMR deficient (D-MMR) and EBV was detected in 14 (6.9%, n = 203) and 14 pts (5.9%, n = 237), respectively. PD-L1 expression on TC was more frequently observed in pts with D-MMR (P 〈 0.001) and KRAS mutation (P 〈 0.001), while that on IC was more frequently observed in pts with EBV+ (P = 0.045), lymph node metastasis (P = 0.001), and lung metastasis (P = 0.045). In contrast, pts with peritoneal metastasis were associated with less frequent PD-L1 expression in IC (P = 0.003). A significant association was not observed between PD-L1 expression and RTKs expression or presence of other gene alterations. D-MMR was significantly associated with intestinal type (P = 0.026) and absence of liver metastasis (P = 0.022). PD-L1 expression on either TC or IC was not prognostic factor (hazard ratio; 0.92, P = 0.741). Seven pts with D-MMR and seven pts with EBV+ MGC were enrolled in clinical trials of anti-PD-1/PD-L1 antibodies. Conclusions: PD-L1 expression in MGC was associated with some clinicopathological features. Impact of these characteristics on efficacy of anti-PD-1/PD-L1 antibody warrants further evaluation.

    Abstract: TPS3623 Background: Immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI) was reported to show durable responses in patients with MSI-H (Microsatellite Instability-High) metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC). On the other hand, for patients with MSS (Microsatellite Stable) mCRC, ICI monotherapy achieved no response. Recently, WNT/β-catenin signaling has been reported to be involved in the elimination of tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes and the resistance of anti-PD-L1 antibodies. CRC is representative cancer with WNT/β-catenin pathway activation. Furthermore, STAT3 has also been reported to be a key driver of this immune evasion. Considering these rationales, the blocking of these signaling pathways with ICI may enhance antitumor immune response. Therefore, we initiated phase I/II study to assess efficacy and safety for the combination of BBI608, which blocks STAT3 and WNT/β-catenin signaling, with pembrolizumab in patients with mCRC. Methods: The eligibility criteria were patients with gastrointestinal cancer not responded to or intolerant of standard chemotherapies (SOC) for phase I part, and MSS mCRC refractory or intolerant to fluoropyrimidine, irinotecan, oxaliplatin, and anti-EGFR antibody (if wild-type RAS) for Cohort B in phase II part. For Cohort A, MSI-H mCRC refractory or intolerant to the SOC, irrespective of anti-EGFR antibody are investigated. Phase I part was designed to determine the recommended phase II dose in a “3+3” cohort-based dose escalation design of BBI608 (240mg BID every day on level 1 and 480mg BID every day on level 2) with pembrolizumab (200mg/body q3w). Primary endpoint of the phase II part is Immune-related objective response rate (irORR) determined by their Response Evaluation Criteria In Solid Tumors (irRECIST). A null hypothesis and alternative hypothesis for cohort B are irORR = 5% and 20%, respectively. Required sample size for Cohort B was 40 with a one-sided alpha of 5% and power of 90%. Required sample size for Cohort A (10 patients) was determined in an exploratory manner. We also investigate biomarker study using paired samples of both tumor biopsy and blood. The enrollment to phase I part began in November 2016. Clinical trial information: NCT02851004. Clinical trial information: NCT02851004.
