TPS3629 Background: For patients with oligometastatic colorectal cancer (CRC), aggressive local therapy of isolated metastases, particularly in the liver, has been associated with long-term progression-free survival and overall survival (OS) primarily based on retrospective evidence. However, in patients with limited metastatic CRC that is deemed inoperable or those with additional disease outside of the liver or lungs, the role of local ablative therapies, including microwave ablation (MWA) and stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT), to render patients disease free is less clear. Further, despite the long history of treating oligometastatic CRC with local therapy, which is provider biased and not evidence based, questions remain regarding the benefit of extending the paradigm of metastatic directed therapy to patients with more extensive disease. This trial seeks to use a pragmatic multimodality approach that mirrors the current clinical dilemma. This study is designed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of adding total ablative therapy (TAT) of all sites of disease to standard of care systemic treatment in those with limited metastatic CRC. Methods: A022101 is a National Clinical Trials Network randomized phase III study planned to enroll 364 patients with newly diagnosed metastatic CRC (BRAF wild-type, microsatellite stable) with ≤4 sites of metastatic disease on baseline imaging. Liver-only metastatic disease is not permitted, and lesions must be amenable to any combination of surgical resection, MWA, and/or SBRT with SBRT required for at least one lesion. Patients receive first-line systemic therapy for 4-6 months and are then randomized 1:1, stratified by number of metastatic organ sites (1-2 vs. 3-4), timing of metastatic disease diagnosis (de novo vs. secondary), and presence of metastatic disease outside the liver and lungs in at least one site. Patients in Arm 1 will receive TAT which consists of treatment of all metastatic sites with SBRT ± MWA ± surgical resection followed by standard of care systemic therapy. Patients in Arm 2 will continue with standard of care systemic therapy alone. The primary endpoint is OS. Secondary endpoints include event-free survival, treatment-related toxicities, and local recurrence with exploratory biomarker analyses. The study needs 346 evaluable patients combined in the 2 arms to demonstrate an improvement in OS with a hazard ratio of 0.7 to provide 80% power with a one-sided alpha of 5%. The trial utilizes a group sequential design with two interim analyses (25% and 50% of events) for futility. The trial activated in January 2023 and recruitment is ongoing.

PURPOSE Adagrasib, a KRAS G12C inhibitor, has demonstrated clinical activity in patients with KRAS G12C -mutated non–small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and colorectal cancer (CRC). KRAS G12C mutations occur rarely in other solid tumor types. We report evaluation of the clinical activity and safety of adagrasib in patients with other solid tumors harboring a KRAS G12C mutation. METHODS In this phase II cohort of the KRYSTAL-1 study (ClinicalTrials.gov identifier: NCT03785249 ; phase Ib cohort), we evaluated adagrasib (600 mg orally twice daily) in patients with KRAS G12C -mutated advanced solid tumors (excluding NSCLC and CRC). The primary end point was objective response rate. Secondary end points included duration of response, progression-free survival (PFS), overall survival, and safety. RESULTS As of October 1, 2022, 64 patients with KRAS G12C -mutated solid tumors were enrolled and 63 patients treated (median follow-up, 16.8 months). The median number of prior lines of systemic therapy was 2. Among 57 patients with measurable disease at baseline, objective responses were observed in 20 (35.1%) patients (all partial responses), including 7/21 (33.3%) responses in pancreatic and 5/12 (41.7%) in biliary tract cancers. The median duration of response was 5.3 months (95% CI, 2.8 to 7.3) and median PFS was 7.4 months (95% CI, 5.3 to 8.6). Treatment-related adverse events (TRAEs) of any grade were observed in 96.8% of patients and grade 3-4 in 27.0%; there were no grade 5 TRAEs. TRAEs did not lead to treatment discontinuation in any patients. CONCLUSION Adagrasib demonstrates encouraging clinical activity and is well tolerated in this rare cohort of pretreated patients with KRAS G12C -mutated solid tumors.

425082 Background: KRAS, a mediator of signalling pathways essential for cellular growth, proliferation, and survival, is the most frequently mutated oncogene in cancer. Notably, KRAS mutations occur in ~90% of pancreatic cancers, of which ~2% are KRASG12C mutations. Other gastrointestinal (GI) tumors also harbor KRASG12C mutations, such as biliary tract cancer (BTC; 1%) and appendiceal cancer (3–4%), and they are also seen in non-GI tumors, such as endometrial and ovarian cancer (1–2%). Adagrasib, a covalent KRASG12C inhibitor that irreversibly and selectively binds KRASG12C in its inactive state, was selected for favorable properties, including long half-life (23 h), dose-dependent pharmacokinetics, and central nervous system penetration. Methods: KRYSTAL-1 is a multicohort phase 1/2 study (NCT03785249) evaluating adagrasib in patients (pts) with advanced solid tumors harboring a KRASG12C mutation. Here we report data from a phase 2 cohort evaluating adagrasib monotherapy administered orally at 600 mg BID in pts with unresectable or metastatic KRASG12C-mutated solid tumors (excluding non-small cell lung cancer and colorectal cancer), including pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC), BTC, other GI, and non-GI tumors. Study objectives include evaluation of clinical activity (ORR, DCR, DOR, PFS, OS) and safety. Results: As of October 1, 2022, 64 pts with KRASG12C-mutated solid tumors were enrolled and 63 were treated with adagrasib (median follow-up, 16.8 months); of these, 21 pts had PDAC, 12 BTC, 16 other GI tumors (9 appendiceal, 4 gastro-esophageal junction/esophageal, 3 small bowel), and 14 non-GI tumors (5 ovarian, 4 unknown primary, 3 endometrial, 1 breast, 1 glioblastoma). Overall, median age was 65 years, 61% had ECOG PS 1, and median prior lines of systemic therapy was 2. Among 57 pts with measurable disease (blinded independent central review), ORR was 35.1% (20/57; all partial responses); DCR was 86.0% (49/57); median DOR was 5.3 months (n=20; 95% CI 2.8–7.3); median PFS was 7.4 months (95% CI 5.3–8.6); and median OS was 14.0 months (n=64; 95% CI 8.5–18.6). Among 21 pts with PDAC, ORR was 33.3% (7/21); DCR was 81.0% (17/21); median PFS was 5.4 months (95% CI 3.9–8.2); and median OS was 8.0 months (95% CI 5.2–11.8). Among 12 pts with BTC, ORR was 41.7% (5/12); DCR was 91.7% (11/12); median PFS was 8.6 months (95% CI 2.7–11.3); and median OS was 15.1 months (95% CI 8.6–not estimable). Overall (n=63), treatment-related adverse events (TRAEs) of any grade were observed in 96.8% of pts (most commonly [≥20%] nausea [49.2%], diarrhea [47.6%], fatigue [41.3%], vomiting [39.7%]), grade 3 TRAEs in 25.4%, and grade 4 TRAEs in 1.6%. No grade 5 TRAE occurred. Conclusions: Adagrasib is well tolerated and demonstrates promising clinical activity in pretreated pts with PDAC, BTC, and other solid tumors harboring a KRASG12C mutation.

BRAF-mutated advanced colorectal cancer is a relatively small but critical subset of this tumor type on the basis of prognostic and predictive implications. BRAF alterations in colorectal cancer are classified into three functional categories on the basis of signaling mechanisms, with the class I BRAF V600E mutation occurring most frequently in colorectal cancer. Functional categorization of BRAF mutations in colorectal cancer demonstrates distinct mitogen-activated protein kinase pathway signaling. On the basis of recent clinical trials, current standard-of-care therapies for patients with BRAF V600E -mutated metastatic colorectal cancer include first-line cytotoxic chemotherapy plus bevacizumab and subsequent therapy with the BRAF inhibitor encorafenib and antiepidermal growth factor receptor antibody cetuximab. Treatment regimens currently under exploration in BRAF V600E -mutant metastatic colorectal cancer include combinatorial options of various pathway-targeted therapies, cytotoxic chemotherapy, and/or immune checkpoint blockade, among others. Circumvention of adaptive and acquired resistance to BRAF-targeted therapies is a significant challenge to be overcome in BRAF-mutated advanced colorectal cancer.

519 Background: KRAS, the most frequently mutated oncogene in cancer, is a key mediator of the RAS/MAPK signaling cascade that promotes cellular growth and proliferation. KRAS mutations occur in approximately 90% of pancreatic cancer, and approximately 2% of these are KRASG12C mutations. Adagrasib, an investigational agent, is a KRASG12C inhibitor that irreversibly and selectively binds KRASG12C, locking it in its inactive state; adagrasib has been optimized for favorable pharmacokinetic (PK) properties, including long half-life (̃24 h), extensive tissue distribution, dose-dependent PK, as well as CNS penetration. Methods: KRYSTAL-1 (NCT03785249) is a multicohort Phase 1/2 study evaluating adagrasib as monotherapy or in combinations in pts with advanced solid tumors harboring a KRASG12C mutation. Here we report preliminary data from pts enrolled in a Phase 2 cohort evaluating single-agent adagrasib administered orally at 600 mg BID in previously treated pts with unresectable or metastatic solid tumors (excluding NSCLC and CRC), including pancreatic and other GI cancers. Study endpoints include clinical activity, safety, and PK. Results: The data cutoff was 10 September 2021. A total of 42 pts were enrolled in this cohort (median age 63.5 years, range 21–89; 52% female; 71% white; 29%/71% ECOG PS 0/1; median 2 prior lines of therapy, range 1–7; median follow-up 6.3 months), of whom 30 pts had KRASG12C-mutant GI tumors (12 PDAC, 8 biliary tract, 5 appendiceal, 2 gastro-esophageal junction, 2 small bowel, and 1 esophageal). In a preliminary analysis, 27 pts with GI tumors were evaluable for clinical activity; partial responses (PRs) were seen in 41% (11/27, including 3 unconfirmed PRs); the disease control rate (DCR) was 100% (27/27). Of the 12 pts with PDAC (median 3 prior lines of therapy; median follow-up 8.1 months), 10 were evaluable for clinical activity; PRs were seen in 50% (5/10, including 1 unconfirmed PR); the DCR was 100% (10/10). Median progression-free survival (PFS) was 6.6 months (95% CI 1.0–9.7), and treatment was ongoing in 50% of pts with PDAC. Among the 17 evaluable pts with other GI tumors, 6 achieved PR (35%; 2 unconfirmed) with a DCR of 100% (17/17); 11 pts were still receiving treatment. In the overall cohort, treatment-related adverse events of any grade occurred in 91% (38/42), the most frequent being nausea (48%), diarrhea (43%), vomiting (43%), and fatigue (29%); grade 3/4 events occurred in 21% of pts, with no grade 5 events. Conclusions: Adagrasib monotherapy is well tolerated and demonstrates encouraging clinical activity in pretreated pts with PDAC and other GI tumors harboring a KRASG12C mutation. Further exploration of adagrasib is ongoing in this pt population (NCT03785249). Clinical trial information: NCT03785249.

627 Background: The SLI of the BEACON CRC phase 3 study assessed the safety and efficacy of the combination of the BRAF inhibitor encorafenib (ENCO) + MEK inhibitor binimetinib (BINI) + anti-EGFR antibody cetuximab (CETUX) in pts with BRAFV600E-mutant mCRC after 1 or 2 prior regimens. CEA and CA19-9 are tumor markers that are widely used to monitor the effectiveness of systemic therapies for mCRC; here we report on the association of CEA and CA19-9 changes while on treatment with clinical outcomes in pts from the SLI. Methods: Pts in the SLI received the triplet of ENCO 300 mg QD + BINI 45 mg BID + CETUX 400 mg/m2 (initial dose) then 250 mg/m2 QW in 28-day cycles. Pts were evaluated for safety, radiographic response, and change in tumor markers CEA and CA19-9. Results: 30 pts were treated. The triplet was generally well tolerated, and adverse events were consistent with known BRAF, MEK, and EGFR inhibitor toxicities. The rate of severe skin toxicities (grade 3/4) was lower than generally observed for CETUX in mCRC. Of the 29 pts with a BRAFV600E mutation, the median time on study treatment was 5.6 mo (range, 1.0–9.3 mo), and 22 (76%) remained on study treatment at the time of data cutoff. The confirmed overall response rate (ORR) was 41%, with 1 complete and 11 partial responses. In addition, 9 pts had prolonged stable disease (SD) up to 9.3 mo.CEA and CA19-9 were analyzed in 28 pts. CEA and CA19-9 decreased in 96% and 82% of these pts, respectively. Among 15 pts with treatment duration ≥5.6 mo, median/mean % decreases were 97%/79% for CEA and 92%/82% for CA19-9 in confirmed responders (n=6). Respective decreases in pts with prolonged SD (n=9) were similar: 84%/68% for CEA and 89%/68% for CA19-9. Updated safety, efficacy, and tumor marker results will be provided. Conclusions: ENCO + BINI + CETUX is generally well tolerated and has encouraging clinical activity in BRAFV 600E mCRC, with a confirmed ORR of 41%. In pts with study treatment duration ≥5.6 mo, the tumor markers CEA and CA19-9 decreased markedly and to the same degree in responders vs pts with prolonged SD, providing additional evidence of the meaningful clinical activity of this regimen.
