9090 Background: The clinicopathologic characteristics and optimal treatment strategies for non-sensitizing EGFR ( ns- EGFR) and HER2 activating mutations in NSCLC remain unclear. Methods: Single-center retrospective study of patients seen at University of Colorado from 2008 – 2018 with stage IV NSCLC was performed. Clinicopathologic features and treatment outcomes of patients with ns-EGFR (Exon 18, Exon 20, L861Q) and HER2 mutations were collected. Best response to TKI was determined (RECIST v1.1). PFS was calculated using Kaplan-Meier method. Results: Among 359 patients, we identified 49 ns-EGFR (36 Exon 20, 10 Exon 18, 3 L861Q) and 28 HER2 mutations (27 Exon 20, 1 gene amplification) detected via NGS (65/77), real-time PCR (9/77), FISH (1/77) and undocumented (2/77). PDL1 > 50% was seen in 44% ns- EGFR and 57% HER2. Adenocarcinoma was the most common histology (97%). Most patients were female (62%), never smokers (63%), and presented with metastatic disease (stage: I 5%, II 4%, III 6%, IV 85%). HER2+ NSCLC demonstrated a tropism for lung metastases (64%) that was significant when compared to EGFR Exon 19, EGFR L858R, ALK, ROS1, and KRAS cohorts (p < 0.001). No differences were found when other metastatic sites were compared. Among evaluable patients, response rates to TKI therapy is shown. Aggregate median PFS on TKI for ns-EGFR and HER2+ NSCLC was 6 months compared to EGFR Exon 19 (15 months; p < 0.01; HR 0.4; CI 0.24 – 0.67) and EGFR L858R (22 months; p < 0.01; HR 0.27 and 0.8; CI 0.14 – 0.54). Aggregate median OS for ns-EGFR and HER2+ NSCLC was 28 months with no differences when compared to EGFR Exon 19 and L858R subgroups. Conclusions: HER2+ NSCLC appears to have a predisposition for lung metastases. Higher DCR was observed with newer generation TKIs, but novel targeted therapeutic approaches are needed as overall outcomes remain poor. [Table: see text]

2519 Background: PT-112 is a novel platinum-pyrophosphate agent designed to avoid the toxicity and drug resistance mechanisms of conventional chemotherapy. Pre-clinical models show effects on multiple cell signaling components: p16 mediated G1/S cell cycle arrest; modulation of MDM2/p53 expression; extrinsic apoptosis initiation; and immunogenic cell death (ICD) induction. This Phase I first-in-human, multicenter, open label study assesses PT-112’s safety and pharmacokinetic (PK) profile in advanced solid tumor patients (pts), to determine the RP2D and signals of activity. Methods: Pts with advanced solid tumors and acceptable marrow / organ function received PT-112 IV over 1-hr on days 1, 8, and 15 every 4 wks in a 3+3 dose escalation design. Intra-subject escalation was allowed. PK samples from cycles 1-2 were analyzed by ICP-MS and LC-MS/MS. Results: 44 pts have been treated across dose levels (DL) from 12-300mg/m2. Cumulative dosing ranged from 1 to 60 infusions, and cumulative exposure from 96 to 5,244 mg/m2. PK parameters were dose proportional. Target Cmax and AUC levels were achieved, with constant VD. DLTs were observed at 150mg/m2 (G3 pancytopenia); 250mg/m2 (G2 renal injury in a cervical ca pt with hydro-nephrosis); and 300mg/m2 (G3 rash). The most common treatment-related AEs were G1-2 fatigue (26% pts), nausea (23%), vomiting (14%), constipation (12%), and diarrhea (12%). Numerous signals of activity were observed at DLs ≥ 125mg/m2. These include a confirmed PR in a NSCLC pt with 6 prior lines of therapy and no response to TKI inhibition or PD-1 blockade; PFS > 6 months (7-18 months) in 3 pts; metabolic response via PET scan in bone and liver mets (basal cell and pancreatic ca.); biomarker responses in ovarian and prostate ca.; and nodal/metastatic volumetric reduction in 3 pts. Conclusions: PT-112 is a well-tolerated novel agent with a pleiotropic mode of action and feasibility for long-term and combination treatment. Numerous signals of anti-cancer efficacy in heavily pre-treated pts suggest lack of cross-resistance with conventional agents. MTD has not yet been reached. PT-112’s profile makes it an attractive candidate for further development, including in combination with immunotherapy. Clinical trial information: NCT02266745.

e20502 Background: The CNS is often a site of first disease progression in CRZ-treated ALK+ NSCLC. The ALTA trial is assessing BRG, an investigational next-generation ALK inhibitor, in pts with CRZ-refractory advanced ALK+ NSCLC, including pts with baseline brain metastases. Methods: In ALTA (NCT02094573), pts were stratified by presence of baseline brain metastases and best response to prior CRZ and randomized 1:1 to receive BRG at 90 mg qd (arm A) or 180 mg qd with a 7-d lead-in at 90 mg (arm B). Here, we show data for pts with baseline brain metastases. An independent review committee (IRC) assessed intracranial efficacy. Results: Of 222 pts (112 in arm A; 110 in arm B), 80 (71%)/74 (67%) in A/B had baseline brain metastases per investigators, with median age 49/55 y; 74%/76% had received chemotherapy. As of May 31, 2016, 51%/59% of these pts continued to receive BRG in A/B; median follow-up was 9.6/11.4 mo. Intracranial efficacy is shown in the table. Among these pts, most common treatment-emergent adverse events were: nausea 35%/46% (A/B), headache 30%/31%, vomiting 29%/31%, diarrhea 21%/38%, cough 25%/32%; grade ≥3: increased blood CPK 1%/12%, hypertension 4%/7%, increased lipase 4%/3%. Conclusions: BRG yielded substantial intracranial responses with robust iPFS and acceptable safety in ALK+ NSCLC pts with baseline brain metastases in ALTA. 180 mg (with lead-in) showed consistently improved intracranial efficacy compared with 90 mg.

9065 Background: BRG is a potent and selective ALK inhibitor with preclinical and clinical activity against wild-type ALK and a broad range of mutants associated with clinical CRZ resistance, including G1202R. Herein we examine the association between BRG efficacy and ALK mutation status using plasma specimens from the initiation of BRG treatment (baseline [BL]) and the end of BRG treatment (EOT) in CRZ-resistant ALK+ NSCLC pts enrolled in the BRG Ph1/2 or pivotal Ph2 (ALTA) trials. Methods: Plasma samples were analyzed using the Resolution Bioscience ctDx Lung Panel v3.0. BRG activity was described using the confirmed objective response rate (cORR) (RECIST v1.1). Data are reported as of May 31, 2016 for the Ph1/2 (NCT01449461) and ALTA (NCT02094573) trials. Results: Of 291 CRZ-resistant ALK+ NSCLC pts enrolled in the Ph1/2 (N = 69) and ALTA (N = 222) trials, evaluable plasma samples were obtained from 67 pts at BL. cORR to BRG in these pts was 49% (33/67). An ALK fusion was detected in plasma in 45% (30/67) of these pts (cORR 57% [17/30]), of whom 33% (10/30) had secondary ALK mutations (cORR 50% [5/10]) and 67% (20/30) did not (cORR 60% [12/20]). Best responses in pts with secondary ALK mutations were: 2 CR (ALK amplification [Amp] copy number [CN] = 10; T1151M); 3 PR (L1196M; E1408V; Amp CN = 6); 4 SD (L1196M; E1419K; F1174C; C1156Y+S1206F+G1269A); 1 PD (T1151R+C1156Y+E1161D+F1174L). Of 67 pts with evaluable plasma at BL, 35 discontinued BRG therapy, of whom 20 had evaluable samples collected at EOT. No new mutations were detected at EOT in 75% (15/20) of pts. Complex mutation patterns were associated with resistance in the remaining 25% (5/20): High-level ALK-Amp (CN = 58); ALK-Amp (CN = 14)+MET-Amp (CN = 6); ALK-S1206F+S1206C+Amp (CN = 6); ALK-G1202R+L1196M+L1198Q; ALK-G1202R+BRAF-V600E+KRAS-G12D. Conclusions: ALK fusions were detected in plasma in < 50% of CRZ-resistant ALK+ NSCLC pts. BRG had substantial activity in ALK fusion–positive pts with a range of CRZ-resistance mutations. Neither primary nor secondary resistance to BRG was associated with any single plasma ALK mutation. The therapeutic implications of complex secondary resistance patterns associated with BRG require further exploration. Clinical trial information: NCT01449461, NCT02094573.
