62 Background: Both Regorafenib (R) and Trifluridine/Tipiracil (T) ± BEV are widely used treatments for mCRC in later lines. This RW study evaluated optimal sequencing and associated outcomes among patients who initiated R and T in sequential lines of therapy (LOT) between LOT1-LOT6 within community oncology settings in the US. Methods: A retrospective study utilizing electronic medical record data from The US Oncology Network examined adult patients with mCRC who initiated R and T ± BEV sequentially between 09/01/2015 and 11/30/2022 (index date), with follow-up until 05/31/2023. Treatment patterns, overall survival (OS) and time to next treatment (TTNT) after sequence were assessed overall, R first (R-T) and T first (T-R). Multivariable Cox regression adjusting for age, sex, ECOG, tumor stage, and prior medication, assessed the association of factors with OS and TTNT. Results: In total, 308 mCRC patients initiating R and T (R-T, 156 pts [140 R-T and 16 R-T+BEV]; T-R, 152 pts [136 T-R and 16 T+BEV-R]) met study criteria. Baseline demographic (mean age 63 yrs, males 55%) and clinical characteristics (70% colon cancer, 58% ECOG 0-1) were similar between the cohorts. Most patients initiated index therapies at the third line of therapy (LOT3) (49% R-T, 45% T-R). The median (IQR) sequence duration was 7.4 (5.6), 6.7 (4.4), and 7.0 (4.7) months, respectively in patients with R-T, T-R, and overall. The median (95% CI) OS was 12.8 (11.2, 14.1) months among R-T and 10.2 (8.8, 11.9) months among T-R patients. Compared to R-T, the adjusted HR for the T-R sequence was 1.2 (95% CI 0.9–1.6; p=0.2). The median (95% CI) TTNT was 9.3 (8.4, 10.3) and 8.6 (7.8, 9.4) months, for R-T and T-R, respectively; the adjusted HR was 1.1 (95% CI 0.8–1.4; p=0.62). Conclusions: Patients initiating R first appeared to have a longer duration of treatment and survival, although not statistically significant. The one-year median duration of survival in this real-world setting confirms the importance of access to these treatments in patients with mCRC and can inform physicians regarding the choice of medications while sequencing therapies in mCRC.

e17040 Background: Our aim was to evaluate two distinct clinical settings catering to US patients with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC): academic (A) and community (C) practice. We used data from a real-world non-interventional study (REASSURE; NCT02141438) examining the use of 223Ra. Methods: Patients with mCRPC who received at least one dose of 223Ra in the US were included. Enrolment occurred between 2014 and 2017; median follow-up was nearly 12 months. Our analysis included patient disease characteristics, treatment history, short- and long-term safety of 223Ra, patient overall survival (OS), and patient-reported pain (Brief Pain Inventory – Short Form [BPI–SF] scores). A clinically meaningful pain response was a ≥2-point decrease from a baseline score of ≥2 in the BPI-SF worst pain item during treatment until last dose. Results: Analysis included 498 patients (A: 147; C: 351). Comparing A with C, the median ages were 70 and 76 years, respectively, and the majority of patients (74% and 84%) had bone-only metastases. A higher percentage of patients in A (69%) than in C (49%) had completed at least one life-prolonging therapy (LPT) prior to 223Ra; these included abiraterone (A: 38%; C: 19%), enzalutamide (A: 32%; C:17%), docetaxel (A: 38%; C: 19%), and sipuleucel-T (A: 18%; C: 25%). Most patients received 5–6 223Ra injections in both settings (A: 65%; C: 71%). 223Ra was used concomitantly with LPTs in 48% of patients in A and 57% in C, predominantly with abiraterone (A: 25%; C: 25%) or enzalutamide (A: 25%; C: 36%); fewer patients in A (35%) received concomitant bone health agents than in C (52%). For safety outcomes, refer to the table. During treatment, 47% and 62% of patients with a baseline BPI-SF ≥2 had a clinically meaningful pain response in A and C, respectively. The median OS was 17.2 months (95% CI 14.0–19.4) in A and 18.4 months (14.8–21.0) in C. More patients in A (42%) than in C (26%) received a LPT after 223Ra, most commonly docetaxel (A: 25%; C: 12%). Conclusions: Patients treated in A tended to be younger and more heavily treated, as evidenced by a higher number of patients receiving LPTs prior to and following 223Ra treatment. Bone health agents were more frequently used in C. Additionally, more patients in C had a clinically meaningful pain response and more drug-related AEs were reported in A. Despite the observed differences, overall survival was comparable for both practice settings. Clinical trial information: NCT02141438 . [Table: see text]

3525 Background: Recent clinical trials support regorafenib dose optimization (ReDO), a combination therapy with trifluridine/tipiracil and bevacizumab (TAS-BEV), and fruquintinib (FRUQ) for the treatment of refractory metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC). This study evaluated relative cost-effectiveness of ReDO, TAS-BEV, and FRUQ for mCRC from a payer perspective in the United States. Methods: A Markov model was constructed to estimate total costs and quality-adjusted life years (QALY) for each treatment. In the base case, clinical parameters were obtained from the ReDOS study for ReDO, the SUNLIGHT study for TAS-BEV, and the FRESCO study for FRUQ. Economic parameters were obtained from IBM Micromedex RED BOOK for treatment costs and from the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services and the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality for health care resource use. Incremental cost-effectiveness ratio (ICER) was used to evaluate relative cost-effectiveness of treatments. Model robustness was checked with deterministic (DSA) and probabilistic sensitivity analysis (PSA). A subgroup analysis was performed in patients with and without previous use of anti-VEGF therapy, but using the FRESCO-2 study for FRUQ because OS and PFS for this subgroup was unavailable in the FRESCO study. Results: In the base case, ReDO provided a higher QALY at a lower cost than TAS-BEV and FRUQ. During the first two months following treatment initiation, TAS-BEV had a higher total cost ($67,862) than ReDO ($44,695) and FRUQ ($48,688), partly due to the cost of managing neutropenia and using concomitant granulocyte colony stimulating factors (GCSF). The base case results were robust in DSA and PSA. Most influential parameters determining relative cost-effectiveness were related to treatment cost and effectiveness. In patients with previous anti-VEGF therapy, ReDO provided a higher QALY at a lower cost (0.571 QALY; $86,694) than TAS-BEV (0.490 QALY; $148,784) and FRUQ (0.411 QALY; $101,236). In patients without previous anti-VEGF therapy, TAS-BEV had a higher QALY (0.755 vs 0.571) and a higher cost ($232,701 vs $86,694) than ReDO, resulting in an ICER of $790,988 per QALY. Conclusions: ReDO was cost-effective compared with TAS-BEV and FRUQ, regardless of previous use of anti-VEGF therapy. In the base case, ReDO had a lower treatment cost than TAS-BEV and FRUQ, especially during the first month of dose optimization. TAS-BEV had the highest total cost, partly due to the cost of managing neutropenia and GCSF use. [Table: see text]

163 Background: Testing for BRAF and KRAS/NRAS mutations, HER2 amplifications, and MSI/MMR status is a standard of care for all patients with mCRC. There are limited real-world (RW) data regarding biomarker testing patterns among robust patients who are candidates for multiple LOT. We evaluated biomarker testing patterns among patients treated in community oncology practices who initiated regorafenib (REGO) and/or trifluridine/tipiracil (FTD/TPI), predominantly in 3rd or later lines of therapy. Methods: A retrospective analysis utilizing electronic medical record data from The US Oncology Network examined adult patients with mCRC who initiated REGO and/or FTD/TPI between 09/01/2015 and 11/30/2022 with follow-up until 05/31/2023. The proportion of patients tested for various biomarkers was assessed. Results: A total of 2684 mCRC patients initiated REGO and/or FTD/TPI (including 895 pts receiving both) in any LOT during the study period. The mean age of patients at baseline was 62.9 years, of whom 54.9% were male, 1599 (59.6%) patients were White and 436 (16.2%) were underrepresented minorities (Black or Hispanic/Latino). Patients were most commonly tested for KRAS mutations (75.2%) and least commonly for HER2 amplifications (22.6%). Age, gender, and race/ethnicity characteristics were similar between treatment subgroups, with 29.6% of minority and 23.1% of white patients not undergoing KRAS testing. Types of biomarkers tested and proportion of patients tested are reported in the table below. Conclusions: About one quarter of patients who were sufficiently robust to receive aggressive therapy did not undergo testing for KRAS, the oldest standard of care biomarker in CRC. We observed disparities by race/ethnicity. We also observed a correlation between rates of testing and treatment intensity, with patients who received both REGO and FTD/TPI having a higher rate of testing than those who received only one of the treatments. Understanding the pitfalls in biomarker testing will help pave the way for appropriate and equitable access to cancer care. [Table: see text]
