Abstract Purpose: Aromatase inhibitor (AI)–associated musculoskeletal symptoms (AIMSS) are common and frequently lead to AI discontinuation. SNPs in candidate genes have been associated with AIMSS and AI discontinuation. E1Z11 is a prospective cohort study designed to validate the association between 10 SNPs and AI discontinuation due to AIMSS. Patients and Methods: Postmenopausal women with stage I to III hormone receptor–positive breast cancer received anastrozole 1 mg daily and completed patient-reported outcome measures to assess AIMSS (Stanford Health Assessment Questionnaire) at baseline, 3, 6, 9, and 12 months. We estimated that 40% of participants would develop AIMSS and 25% would discontinue AI treatment within 12 months. Enrollment of 1,000 women with a fixed number per racial stratum provided 80% power to detect an effect size of 1.5 to 4. SNPs were found in ESR1 (rs2234693, rs2347868, and rs9340835), CYP19A1 (rs1062033 and rs4646), TCL1A (rs11849538, rs2369049, rs7158782, and rs7159713), and HTR2A (rs2296972). Results: Of the 970 evaluable women, 43% developed AIMSS and 12% discontinued AI therapy within 12 months. Although more Black and Asian women developed AIMSS than White women (49% vs. 39%, P = 0.017; 50% vs. 39%, P = 0.004, respectively), the AI discontinuation rates were similar across groups. None of the SNPs were significantly associated with AIMSS or AI discontinuation in the overall population or in distinct cohorts. The OR for rs2296972 (HTR2A) approached significance for developing AIMSS. Conclusions: We were unable to prospectively validate candidate SNPs previously associated with AI discontinuation due to AIMSS. Future analyses will explore additional genetic markers, patient-reported outcome predictors of AIMSS, and differences by race.

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.

12003 Background: AIMSS are common and frequently lead to early discontinuation of adjuvant AI therapy. Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in candidate genes have been associated with AIMSS and AI discontinuation. The primary objective of E1Z11 was to validate previously identified associations between 10 specific SNPs in candidate genes and AI discontinuation due to AIMSS in a community-based, racially diverse cohort. Methods: Postmenopausal women with hormone receptor-positive stage I-III breast cancer enrolled onto a prospective multi-site cohort study, the majority through the NCI Community Oncology Research Program (NCORP). Participants received anastrozole 1 mg oral daily, and completed patient-reported outcomes (PROs) at baseline, 3, 6, 9, and 12 months. AIMSS was defined as >20% increase in Stanford Health Assessment Questionnaire (HAQ) score over baseline occurring within 1 year of AI therapy. We projected 40% would develop AIMSS and 25% would discontinue AI treatment within 1 year, informing a planned enrollment of 1000 women with a fixed number per strata (600 Caucasian, 200 African-American [AA] & 200 Asian) to provide 80% power to detect an effect size of 1.5-4. SNPs include ESR1 (rs2234693, rs2347868, rs9340835), CYP19A1 (rs1062033, rs4646), TCL1A (rs11849538, rs2369049, rs7158782, rs7159713), and HTR2A (rs2296972). Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium (HWE) was evaluated within each racial subset. SNP genotypes were coded as additive effects on the log odds ratio by coding as 0, 1 or 2 for the count of the minor allele. A Cochran-Armitage trend test was used with a 1-sided alpha of 0.0025 (Bonferroni correction for 10 tests). Results: We enrolled 999 evaluable women (616 Caucasian, 184 AA, 199 Asian). Genotyping was successful in 974 (98%). AIMSS developed in 43%, and AI therapy was discontinued in 12% within 1 year. While more AA and Asians developed AIMSS compared to Caucasians (48% vs 38%, p=0.017; 50% vs 38%, p=0.004), AI discontinuation rates were similar across racial groups. HWE was satisfied for all SNPs at the 5% alpha level, except for TCL1A/rs11849538 (p=0.002) in the AA cohort. None of the 10 SNPs were significantly associated with AI discontinuation or development of AIMSS in the overall population, or in any of the 3 cohorts. Conclusions: Although AIMSS were more common in AA and Asians, AI discontinuation rates were similar in the 3 cohorts. We were unable to prospectively validate 10 SNPs in 4 genes previously associated with AI discontinuation due to AIMSS. Future analyses will include other predictors of AIMSS, PROs, and additional genetic markers for the entire cohort and by race.
