    Abstract: TPS3154 Background: Immune-related Adverse Events (irAEs) are rare but serious sequelae of treatment with immuno-oncology (IO) therapeutics. These therapeutics, including monoclonal antibodies targeting programmed cell death protein 1 (PD-1), programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1) and cytotoxic T-lymphocyte-associated protein 4 (CTLA-4), have had transformative effects on outcomes for patients (pts) with advanced cancers. Although most pts tolerate the therapies well, a few experience irAEs ranging in severity up to life-threatening. These irAEs involve diverse organs including the heart, kidney, liver and lung, and gastrointestinal, musculoskeletal, central and peripheral nervous systems. Because of the relatively low incidence and wide variety of irAEs due to various immunotherapies for multiple tumor types, establishment of an efficient centralized repository for acquisition and organized distribution of well-annotated biospecimens is vital for translational studies that improve understanding of the molecular pathogenesis and treatment of these significant toxicities. Methods: This multi-institutional study is open at sites across the National Clinical Trial Network to pts who received ≥ 1 IO therapeutics (e.g., CTLA-4, PD-1 or PD-L1 inhibitor) and experienced 1) ≥ 1 serious (grade 3–5) adverse events that are likely immune-related, 2) rare infection or 3) tumor hyperprogression. IrAEs of interest include myocarditis, colitis, hepatitis, nephritis, myositis, pneumonitis, meningitis/encephalitis, dermatitis, endocrinopathies and neuropathy. Pts may be on an NCTN or non-NCTN IO trial or be receiving standard-of-care therapy. Registration must occur ≤ 72 hours after confirmation of the irAE event. Clinical data are collected at registration, 1 month after registration and for up to 1 year. Biospecimens (tumor blocks, biopsies of inflammatory tissues used to establish irAE diagnosis, and serial blood samples for isolation of plasma, serum and peripheral blood mononuclear cells) are collected at 1-2 timepoints. Stool samples are collected from pts experiencing colitis. Imaging data are collected for pts with hyperprogression or pneumonitis. Goal accrual is 240 pts. Biospecimens and data will be made available to investigators following future submission and approval of proposals.

    Abstract: TPS2573 Background: Brain metastases, most commonly derived from melanoma, lung and breast cancers, are the most common brain tumor, with approximately 200,000 cases diagnosed annually in the United States. Median survival is on the order of months. For patients with clinically symptomatic brain metastases, approximately half succumb due to intracranial progression. In preclinical work, we demonstrated that brain metastases and primary tumors are often genetically distinct with frequent alterations in the CDK and PI3K pathway (Brastianos, Carter et al. Cancer Discovery 2015). Methods: We are currently accruing to a prospective multi-arm phase II study of CDK, PI3K/mTOR, and NTRK/ROS1 inhibitors in patients with brain metastases harboring alterations associated with sensitivity to these inhibitors (abemaciclib, paxalisib and entrectinib), respectively. Patients with new, recurrent or progressive brain metastases are eligible for this trial. Previously obtained tissue from brain metastases and extracranial sites (primary or extracranial metastases) are screened for the presence of these alterations, and if present in both tumor sites, patients will receive the appropriate corresponding targeted treatment. Screening is carried out with the SNaPshot NGS assay, which is a fully validated clinical test designed and developed at the MGH Center for Integrated Diagnostics. The primary endpoint of response rate (RR) in the central nervous system as per RANO criteria will be evaluated separately for each inhibitor, stratified by histology within each arm. There will be 21 evaluable patients assigned to each of the CDK and PI3K inhibitor and tumor type cohorts (breast, lung and other) and 10 patients assigned to the NTRK/ROS1 inhibitor cohort (lung) for a total of 136 evaluable patients. Although current systemic therapy for brain metastases is often ineffective, we hypothesize that targeted therapies will demonstrate efficacy in patients harboring the appropriate mutations. This study represents a novel individualized therapeutic approach in brain metastases, a disease with a critical need for effective therapy.

    Abstract: 2023 Background: TRC105 is a humanized antibody targeting CD105 (endoglin), a member of the TGFβ receptor superfamily. CD105 is expressed in glioma stem cells and circulating endothelial cells (CECs) in GBM patients (pts), increasing following VEGF inhibition. N1174 was conducted in recurrent bevacizumab (bev) naïve GBM pts to investigate the hypothesis that CD105 blockade+bev can delay development of bev resistance. Methods: After a ph I cohort (15 pts) established the ph II dose of TRC105 as 10 mg/kg IV over 4 hours every 7 days in combination with standard dose bev, the ph II trial used 1:1 randomization with 90% power and 0.10 type I error to detect a 3 month (mo) difference in progression-free survival (PFS) between the two arms. CECs including CD105 positive subsets were measured by flow cytometry at baseline and multiple time points. Results: Based on 101 evaluable ph II pts, there was no significant difference in PFS between TRC105+bev and bev only (2.9 vs 3.2 mo, respectively; HR=1.14, 95% CI 0.73-1.77, p=0.57), or overall survival (10.0 vs 7.4 mo; HR 1.02 95% CI 0.63-1.65, p=0.93). Response rate (complete or partial) was 12.2% (6/49) for TRC105+bev and 11.6% (5/43) for bev only. Overall incidence of grade (gr) 3+ toxicity was higher for TRC105+bev (67.3% vs 32.7%, p 〈 0.001) mainly due to 14 pts with gr 3 anemia in the TRC105+bev arm vs 0 in the bev only pts. Gr 3+ non-heme toxicities were higher in pts receiving TRC105+bev vs bev only (50% vs 30.6%, p=0.07), mainly due to headache (6 vs 1 pts) and hyperglycemia (3 vs 0 pts). CECs remained stable in combination treated pts, suggesting a possible impact of the anti-CD105 blockade, but increased at progression in the bev only arm. There was no association between PFS and initial changes in CEC values, independent of treatment received. Conclusions: TRC105 plus bev did not prolong median PFS vs single agent bev in recurrent GBM pts, although it was associated with a non-significant prolongation of OS. These data and associated correlative analysis of CECs from study pts point against endoglin being a clinically significant factor for the development of bev resistance.

    Abstract: We aimed to define a Mayo Preclinical Alzheimer's disease Cognitive Composite (Mayo‐PACC) that prioritizes parsimony and use of public domain measures to facilitate clinical translation. Methods Cognitively unimpaired participants aged 65 to 85 at baseline with amyloid PET imaging were included, yielding 428 amyloid negative (A‐) and 186 amyloid positive (A+) individuals with 7 years mean follow‐up. Sensitivity to amyloid‐related cognitive decline was examined using slope estimates derived from linear mixed models (difference in annualized change across A+ and A‐ groups). We compared differences in rates of change between Mayo‐PACC and other composites (A+  〉  A‐ indicating more significant decline in A+). Results All composites showed sensitivity to amyloid‐related longitudinal cognitive decline (A+  〉  A‐ annualized change p   〈  0.05). Comparisons revealed that Mayo‐PACC (AVLT sum of trials 1‐5+6+delay, Trails B, animal fluency) showed comparable longitudinal sensitivity to other composites. Discussion Mayo‐PACC performs similarly to other composites and can be directly translated to the clinic.

    Abstract: Preclinical Alzheimer’s cognitive composites (PACC) are designed to detect subtle cognitive changes in clinical trials. PACCs often include measures of memory, attention, and semantic fluency, with variations based on available measures. We created a Mayo Clinic PACC (Mayo‐PACC) to address limitations of existing PACCs by prioritizing parsimony, non‐proprietary measures, clinical applicability, and psychometric properties. We developed a Mayo‐PACC and examined sensitivity to detecting longitudinal cognitive change in amyloid positive (A+) older adults relative to the Preclinical Alzheimer’s Cognitive Composite‐Revised (PACC‐R). Exploratory analyses included comparison to other composites. Method Participants included 614 individuals in the Mayo Clinic Study of Aging (428 A‐ and 186 A+) age 65‐85 who were cognitively unimpaired at baseline with 7 years mean follow‐up. A+ was defined as PiB‐PET meta‐ROI SUVR ≥ 1.48 (centiloid 22). The Mayo‐PACC included the AVLT sum of trials (trials 1‐5, short delay, long delay), Trails B and Animal fluency. Measures included in the PACC‐R and other comparison composites are listed in Table 1. We calculated study‐specific z‐scores and examined psychometric properties of component measures including test‐retest reliability, practice effects, and distributional properties (ceiling/floor effects, skew, kurtosis). We examined sensitivity to preclinical cognitive change using slope estimates (difference in annualized change across A+ and A‐ groups) from linear mixed models (LMMs) for each composite. A jackknife procedure was used to calculate the standard error and subsequent confidence intervals of differences in rates of change (A+ 〉 A‐ indicating more significant decline in A+). Significance was determined based on whether the 95% Confidence Interval (CI) contained 0 (alpha = .05). Result All composites showed sensitivity to amyloid‐related longitudinal cognitive decline (A+ 〉 A‐ annualized change p 〈 .05; see Table 2). Jack‐knife comparisons revealed comparable utility of Mayo‐PACC and PACC‐R (CI contained 0, see Table 3). Exploratory analyses revealed Mayo‐PACC performed similarly to an adaptation of the ADCS‐PACC, Global‐z, Memory‐z and Attention‐z. The Mayo‐PACC performed better than a 2‐measure Mayo‐PACC‐remote and a single memory measure. Conclusion The Mayo‐PACC provides a parsimonious composite score that has comparable utility for detecting A+ 〉 A‐ cognitive decline compared to the PACC‐R and other composites and can be widely used in both research and clinical settings.

    Abstract: The aim of this study was to develop a conditional normative model for Rey's Auditory Verbal Learning Test (AVLT) that accounts for practice effects. Methods In our normative sample, robust conditional norms were derived from 1001 cognitively unimpaired (CU) adults ages 50 to 89 who completed the AVLT up to eight times. Linear mixed‐effects models adjusted for baseline performance, prior test exposures, time, demographics, and interaction terms. In our preliminary validation, mean performance on conditional and typical normative scores across two to four completed follow‐up tests in preclinical Alzheimer's disease participants at baseline with positive amyloid and tau positron emission ( n = 27 CU amyloid [A]+tau[T] +) was compared to biomarker negative individuals ( n = 269 CU A–T–). Results AVLT performance using typical norms did not differ across A+T+ and A–T– groups. Conditional norms z‐scores were lower in the A+T+ relative to the A–T– group for 30‐minute recall ( P = .033) and sum of trials ( P = .030). Discussion Conditional normative methods that account for practice effects show promise for identifying longitudinal cognitive decline.

    Abstract: In this randomized comparative phase 2 trial in patients with recurrent glioblastoma, the combination of the Src inhibitor dasatinib with bevacizumab was found to lead to a 6‐month progression‐free survival rate that was numerically but not statistically higher than that noted with single‐agent bevacizumab. The addition of dasatinib also resulted in a significantly longer response duration, but no difference in survival.

    Abstract: Standard of care for craniopharyngiomas is surgery with or without radiotherapy (RT). Cohort A of Alliance A071601 evaluated the efficacy of BRAF/MEK inhibition with vemurafenib/cobimetinib in patients with previously untreated papillary craniopharyngiomas (PCP), which carry the BRAF V600E mutation. Cohort B is currently enrolling patients with recurrence after RT. In a correlative analysis, we examined changes in RT volumes after BRAF/MEK therapy in Cohort A. METHODS Previously unirradiated patients with BRAF-mutated PCP were treated with vemurafenib/cobimetinib. Sixteen patients had scans available before starting vemurafenib/cobimetinib (“pre-therapy”) and after completing therapy (“post-therapy”). Two patients went off study treatment after 8 and 9 days due to side-effects and were excluded for this analysis. Gross target volumes (GTV) were contoured on pre-therapy and post-therapy scans. On post-therapy scans, an additional target comprising gross disease and at-risk regions for microscopic residual disease (GTV-micro) was defined and considered the treatment volume. Clinical target volume (CTV) was a 5-mm uniform expansion on pre-therapy GTV and post-therapy GTV-micro. Volumes were independently reviewed by two radiation oncologists. Changes in volumes from pre- versus post-therapy were compared using the Wilcoxon signed rank test. RESULTS In 14 patients evaluated, 57% were female and median age at enrollment was 49.5 years (range 33-83). Median time on treatment was 8.9 months (range 4.0-18.0). Median GTV pre-therapy was 3.8 mL (range 0.2-23.4) versus 0.3 mL (range 0.0-3.2) post-therapy (p=0.0001) and 1.7 mL (range 0.1-8.0) post-therapy GTV-micro (p=0.0001). Median CTV pre-therapy was 13.7 mL (range 2.8-51.8) versus 9.1 mL (range 2.2-27.5) post-therapy (p=0.0001). All tumors abutted the optic chiasm pre-therapy, only 6 did post-therapy. CONCLUSIONS Vemurafenib/cobimetinib resulted in smaller RT volumes. BRAF/MEK inhibitors could reduce RT volumes and spare dose to surrounding normal structures. Enrollment to Cohort B of Alliance A071601 should be considered for patients with recurrent tumors after RT. SUPPORT https://acknowledgments.alliancefound.org

    Abstract: A recent phase III trial (NCT01372774) comparing use of stereotactic radiosurgery [SRS] versus whole-brain radiation therapy [WBRT] after surgical resection of a single brain metastasis revealed that declines in cognitive function were more common with WBRT than with SRS. A secondary endpoint in that trial, and the primary objective in this secondary analysis, was to identify baseline biomarkers associated with cognitive impairment after either form of radiotherapy for brain metastasis. Here we report our findings on APOE genotype and serum levels of associated proteins and their association with radiation-induced neurocognitive decline. Methods In this retrospective analysis of prospectively collected samples from a completed randomized clinical trial, patients provided blood samples every 3 months that were tested by genotyping and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay, and results were analyzed in association with cognitive impairment. Results The APOE genotype was not associated with neurocognitive impairment at 3 months. However, low serum levels of ApoJ, ApoE, or ApoA protein (all P & lt; .01) and higher amyloid beta (Aβ 1–42) levels (P = .048) at baseline indicated a greater likelihood of neurocognitive decline at 3 months after SRS, whereas lower ApoJ levels were associated with decline after WBRT (P = .014). Conclusions Patients with these pretreatment serum markers should be counseled about radiation-related neurocognitive decline.

    Abstract: Mayo Test Drive (MTD): Test Development through Rapid Iteration, Validation and Expansion, is a web‐based platform optimized for remote self‐administered assessment that includes a computer adaptive word list memory test (Stricker Learning Span; SLS) and a measure of processing speed (Symbols Test). Study aims were to determine 1) convergent validity of MTD through correlations with in‐person neuropsychological measures and 2) criterion validity of MTD by qualitatively comparing the ability of Mayo Test Drive and in‐person administered neuropsychological measures to differentiate biomarker‐defined groups, independent of clinical diagnosis. Methods Mayo Clinic Study of Aging participants (N = 282) completed a brief remote cognitive assessment (mean age = 74, SD = 12; 262 CU and 20 MCI per consensus conference diagnosis; see Table 1). A subset of participants had brain amyloid and/or brain tau PET scans available within 3 years; overlapping groups were formed for 1) those on the Alzheimer’s disease (AD) continuum (A+, n = 31) or not (A‐, n = 57) and for 2) those with biological AD (A+T+, n = 19) or without any AD biomarkers (A‐T‐, n = 47). Primary outcome variables were SLS sum of trials, AVLT sum of trials, SYM Correct Trials response time, Digit Symbol Coding, MTD composite and Mayo‐PACC (AVLT sum of trials, Trails B, animals). Bivariate correlations were performed across all participants. Linear model ANOVAs were used to investigate biomarker subgroup differences; Hedge’s g effect sizes are reported. Results Convergent validity was supported through significant correlation ( p ’s 〈 .001) of SLS and AVLT (r = .63), SYM and Coding (r = ‐.64), and MTD composite with Mayo‐PACC (r = .67); see Table 2. MTD subtests showed expected relationships with age and education ( p ’s 〈 .05; Table 3). All MTD performances were significantly lower for A+ and A+T+ participants relative to A‐ or A‐T‐ ( p ’s 〈 .001; Table 4). All MTD outcome measures showed a similar or greater group difference effect size relative to traditional in‐person administered neuropsychological measures for separating A+ vs. A‐ and A+T+ vs. A‐T‐ groups. See Figure 1 and Table 4. Conclusions MTD subtests show evidence of convergent validity through strong correlations with traditional in‐person cognitive measures. Preliminary analyses suggest MTD has promise for differentiating PET biomarker groups.
