Abstract:
4050 Background: FLOT is the standard perioperative treatment for resectable gastric /gastroesophageal junction (GEJ) adenocarcinoma. However, patient’s outcome is still poor. Toripalimab, a humanized IgG4 monoclonal antibody against programmed cell death receptor-1 (PD-1), has shown remarkable clinical efficacy in various cancers. This trial evaluates the addition of Toripalimab to FLOT for resectable patients. Methods: This is a prospective, single-arm, investigator-initiated phase II trial. Patients with histologically confirmed, resectable, gastric and GEJ adenocarcinoma (≥cT2 or cN+) were enrolled to receive 4 pre-and post-operative cycles of toripalimab (240mg, q2w) plus FLOT (docetaxel 50 mg/m2; oxaliplatin 85 mg/m2; leucovorin 200 mg/m2; 5-FU 2600 mg/m2, q2w). The primary endpoint was pathological complete response rate (pCR). The secondary endpoints included major pathological (complete and nearly complete) response (MPR), and R0-resection rate, 3-year disease-free survival rate, overall survival, and adverse events. Results: In total, of 36 patients were enrolled from June 2019 through Dec 2020. Male, 66.7%; median age, 60y; cT3 8.3%, T4, 83.3%; cN+ 88.9%; GEJ 47%; MSI-H, 5.6%, Her-2neu-positive, 5.6%, EBER-positive, 5.6%). Two patients refused surgery, six patients have not yet completely neoadjuvant treatment. 100% of patients completed the 4 pre-cycle. Patients who had received gastrectomy after neoadjuvant treatment (n=28) were included in this analysis. 6 (21%) patients had operations involving a thoracic approach (oesophagogastrectomy with two field lymphadenectomy), 21 (75%) gastrectomy with D2 lymphadenectomy. 8 (29%) evaluable patients had Clavien-Dindo grade II post-operative complications and 2 (7%) grade IIIA complications; one patient had an anastomotic leakage that was treated endoscopically. There were no emergency re-operations. All 28 patients achieved R0-resection and were discharged home after a median of 12 days (range:7-63) in hospital. 7 (25%)patients achieved pCR (TRG1a) and 12 (42.9%) patients achieved major pathologic response (MPR, TRG1a/b). Treatment-related adverse events (TRAEs) to any drug were reported in 30 (94%) patients. Mostly TRAEs were grade 1-2, the grade 3 or 4 TRAEs included neutropenia (34%), neutropenia (25%), lymphopenia (3%), Alanine aminotransferase increased (3%), hypokalemia (3%) and anaemia (3%). Conclusions: Perioperative toripalimab in combination with FLOT showed promising efficacy with high pCR and MPR rate and well tolerated safety profile in patients with resectable gastric/GEJ adenocarcinoma. This combination regimen might present a new option for patients with locally advanced, resectable gastric/GEJ adenocarcinoma. Clinical trial information: NCT04354662.
