    Abstract: The semiconductor tracker (SCT) is one of the tracking systems for charged particles in the ATLAS detector. It consists of 4088 silicon strip sensor modules. During Run 2 (2015–2018) the Large Hadron Collider delivered an integrated luminosity of 156 fb -1 to the ATLAS experiment at a centre-of-mass proton-proton collision energy of 13 TeV. The instantaneous luminosity and pile-up conditions were far in excess of those assumed in the original design of the SCT detector. Due to improvements to the data acquisition system, the SCT operated stably throughout Run 2. It was available for 99.9% of the integrated luminosity and achieved a data-quality efficiency of 99.85%. Detailed studies have been made of the leakage current in SCT modules and the evolution of the full depletion voltage, which are used to study the impact of radiation damage to the modules.

    Abstract: 8040 Background: Passive monitoring using wearables can objectively measure sleep over extended time periods. MM patients (PTs) are susceptible to fluctuating sleep patterns due to pain and dexamethasone (dex) treatment. In this prospective study, we remotely monitored sleep patterns on 40 newly diagnosed MM (NDMM) PTs while administering electronic PT reported outcome (ePRO) surveys. The study aim was to establish sleep bioprofiles during therapy and correlate with ePROs. Methods: Eligible PTs for the study had untreated NDMM and assigned to either Cohort A – PTs 〈 65 years or Cohort B – PTs ≥ 65 years. PTs were remotely monitored for sleep 1-7 days at baseline [BL] and continuously up to 6 therapy cycles. PTs completed ePRO surveys (EORTC - QLQC30 and MY20) at BL and after each cycle. Sleep data and completed ePRO surveys were synced to Medidata Rave through Sensorlink technology. Associations between sleep measurement trends and QLQC30 scores were estimated using a linear mixed model with a random intercept. Results: Between Feb 2017 - Sep 2019, 40 PTs (21 M and 19 F) were enrolled with 20 in cohort A (mean 54 yrs, 41-64) and 20 in cohort B (mean 71 yrs, 65-82). Regimens included KRd 14(35%), RVd 12(30%), Dara-KRd 8(20%), VCd 5(12.5%), and Rd 1(2.5%). Sleep data was compiled among 23/40 (57.5%) PTs. BL mean sleep was 578.9 min/24 hr for Cohort A vs. 544.9 min/24 hr for Cohort B (p = 0.41, 95% CI -51.5, 119.5). Overall median sleep trends changed for cohort A by -6.3 min/24 hr per cycle (p = 0.09) and for cohort B by +0.8 min/24 hr per cycle (p = 0.88). EPRO data trends include global health +1.5 score/cycle (p = 0.01, 95% CI 0.31, 3.1), physical +2.16 score/cycle (p 〈 0.001, 95% CI 1.26, 3.07), insomnia -1.6 score/cycle (p = 0.09, 95% CI [-3.47, 0.26]), role functioning +2.8 score/cycle (p = 0.001, 95% CI 1.15, 4.46), emotional +0.3 score/cycle (p = 0.6, 95% CI -0.73, 1.32), cognitive -0.36 score/cycle (p = 0.44, 95% CI -1.29,0.56), and fatigue -0.36 score/cycle (p = 0.4, 95% CI -1.65, 0.93). No association between sleep measurements and ePRO were detected. Difference in sleep on dex days compared to all other days during the sample cycle period for cohort A was 81.4 min/24 hr (p = 0.004, 95% CI 26, 135) and for cohort B was 37.4 min/24 hr (p = 0.35, 95% CI -41, 115). Conclusions: Our study provides insight into wearable sleep monitoring in NDMM. Overall sleep trends in both cohorts do not demonstrate significant gains or losses, and these trends fit with HRQOL ePRO insomnia responses. Upon further examination, we demonstrate objective differences (younger PTs) in intra-cyclic sleep measurements on dex days compared to other cycle days (less sleep by 〉 1 hr). For older patients, less variation in sleep profiles was detected during dex days, possibly due to higher levels of fatigue or longer sleep duration. Sleep is an integral part of well-being in the cancer patient. Future studies should continue to characterize sleep patterns as it relates to HRQOL.

    Abstract: LBA2 Background: We previously reported significant benefits in quality of life, patient satisfaction, and emergency room utilization outcomes from a large single-center randomized controlled trial comparing web-based symptom monitoring with patient-reported outcomes (PROs) vs. usual care in patients receiving chemotherapy for metastatic solid tumors (Clinicaltrials.gov: NCT00578006). We now present overall survival results from this trial. Methods: Patients receiving routine outpatient chemotherapy for metastatic solid tumors at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center were randomly assigned to self-report 12 common symptoms via tablet computers (“PRO intervention”), or to usual care. Treating physicians received symptom printouts at visits and nurses received email alerts when participants reported severe or worsening symptoms. Overall survival was tabulated based on medical records and Social Security Death Index data, estimated using the Kaplan-Meier method, and compared between arms using a log-rank test and Cox proportional hazards regression adjusting for age, sex, race, education level, and cancer type. Results: Between September 2007 and January 2011, 766 patients were randomized, with median age 61 (range 26-91), 86% white, 58% female, and 22% with less than high school education. Cancer types included genitourinary (32% of patients), gynecologic (23%), breast (19%), and lung cancer (26%). Survival results were assessed in June 2016 after a median follow up of 7 years and 517/766 (67%) of participants had died. Median overall survival in the PRO intervention arm was 5 months longer than the control arm (31.2 vs. 26.0 months, p = 0.03). In the multivariable model, results remained statistically significant with a hazard ratio of 0.832 (p = 0.04; 95% CI; 0.696, 0.995). Conclusions: Systematic symptom monitoring during outpatient chemotherapy using web-based patient-reported outcomes confers overall survival benefits. These single-center results are being further evaluated in a national multicenter implementation trial. Clinical trial information: NCT00578006.

    Abstract: e18245 Background: As PROs become commonplace in clinical trials and routine care, we must identify efficient analytic methods to better understand and ultimately integrate this information into clinical decision-making. While PROs are often captured via qualitative methods to provide context and pt voice to traditional objective and/or quantitative assessments, the current analytic standard is resource intensive and impractical for timely delivery of this information to clinicians and trialists. To address this problem, we propose the use of LDA, a natural language processing technique that automates the distillation of vast amounts of free-text data into underlying topics. Methods: As part of a prospective longitudinal trial of pts ( N = 200; M age = 63.8; 20% female; 46%) undergoing radical cystectomy (52% stage T2-T4) and urinary diversion (49% continent) for bladder cancer (ClinicalTrials.gov identifier NCT00745355), pts completed 30 minute interviews at baseline and 6-months post-surgery where they were asked to characterize their quality of life with respect to goals or milestones they would like to reach, problems they would like to solve, situations they would like to prevent, things they would like to remain the same, and commitments they would be willing to let go. LDA was used to extract latent topics and themes, stratified by time. Results: LDA extracted 7 latent topics and showed shifting patient priorities. At baseline, pt primary concerns were related to surgery and recovery. Six months post-surgery, pt goals transitioned toward themes related to concerns about cancer recurrence, regaining a sense of normalcy, return to work, enjoyment of life and increased appreciation of friends and family. Conclusions: LDA was used as an automated tool to illustrate a shift in pt goals and concerns as they transition into survivorship. This novel data analytic technique offers the possibility of significantly reducing the resources required to summarize qualitative PRO data. As such, this information may now be more readily available for immediate inclusion in the decision-making process as part of routine care and clinical trials. Clinical trial information: NCT00745355.

    Abstract: e16018 Background: Pain is common in men with mCRPC and can substantially impair function and quality of life. For assessment of pain as a clinical trial endpoint, substantial validation work has been conducted on the BPI “pain at its worst in the last 24 hours” item, but additional qualitative study of patient understanding of this item is necessary to fully meet FDA labeling standards. Methods: Twenty-six patients with mCRPC in a non-randomized expansion cohort (N=144) of phase II study XL184-203 were interviewed to confirm their comprehension of the BPI “pain at its worst in the last 24 hours” item, and elicit their interpretation of points on the 0-10 response scale to establish levels of intra-patient pain rating consistency. Patient descriptions were evaluated and further compared with previously identified associations between pain severity and pain interference ratings. Results: Patients (median age = 68; range 44-81) had ECOG performance status of 0 (38%) and 1 (62%). Nearly all patients answered the question as intended – by considering the past 24 hours (72%; 18% did not specify); including non-cancer related pain (96%); and reporting pain experienced with analgesia (100%). Patients described pain of “2” as relatively mild, noticeable, and not limiting; pain of “5” as moderate and limiting activity; and pain of “8” as severe and more or less incapacitating. Interpretation of the response scale was highly consistent both among patients and in comparison to levels of pain severity and interference identified in previous large statistical analyses. Conclusions: This study provides important qualitative support for the use of the BPI “pain at its worst in the last 24 hours” item to assess pain per FDA labeling standards in men with mCRPC. Consistent with prior qualitative work, these results confirm this item is well understood by patients. The interpretation of the response scale is remarkably consistent among patients, as well as with results from large statistical analyses, demonstrating the reliability of this item to assess patient-reported pain in cancer trials.

    Abstract: 7018 Background: Standard reporting of symptomatic adverse events (AEs) in oncology relies on clinicians to rate patient (pt) experience using CTCAE; each symptom is represented by a single graded item. To capture direct pt experience, NCI developed PRO-CTCAE to supplement CTCAE. In PRO-CTCAE, the pt answers up to 3 questions per AE about a symptom’s frequency, severity and interference with daily activities. To align PRO-CTCAE with CTCAE, we developed an algorithm for mapping sets of questions for an AE to a single composite numerical grade. Methods: We used a 5-step process. (1) All 187 possible PRO-CTCAE score permutations were presented to clinical investigators to subjectively map permutations to single numerical grades (range 0-3). (2) Permutations with 〈 75% agreement were presented to investigator committees at a National Clinical Trials Network meeting to gain majority consensus via anonymous voting. (3) The resulting algorithm was refined via graphical and tabular approaches to assure directional consistency. (4) Validity, reliability and sensitivity were assessed in a national study dataset. (5) Accuracy for delineating AEs between study arms was measured in 2 phase III clinical trials (Alliance for Clinical Trials in Oncology A091105 and Exelixis COMET-2). Results: (1) 12/187 score permutations had 〈 75% initial agreement. (2) Majority consensus was reached for all permutations. (3) 5 mappings were adjusted to assure directional consistency. (4) Composite grades for 46/59 (78%) AEs were higher in pts with ECOG performance status 2-4 vs 0-1 (median effect size 0.23 [range -0.49-0.73]; 32/59 effect size ≥0.2; 25/59 p 〈 0.05), similar to when conducting analysis on individual unmapped items. The test-retest reliability for 24 selected composite grades ranged from 0.57-0.96 (median intraclass correlation coefficient [ICC] 0.77) with 18/24 (75%) grades having ICC ≥0.7. Median (range) standardized response means in pts reporting worsening, no change, and improvement were 0.20 (0.03-0.34), -0.06 (-0.20-0.03) and -0.12 (-0.32-0.06). (5) Pattern, directionality and statistical significance of between-arm differences in both trials were preserved with composite grades as compared to individual unmapped items. Conclusions: A composite grading algorithm for PRO-CTCAE was rigorously developed and validated. PRO-CTCAE composite grades may be useful in analyses to provide a single metric for each pt-reported AE for trial and real-world reporting.
