e20520 Background: Cytogenetic abnormalities detected by FISH are found in the majority of multiple myeloma (MM) patients. Although their prognostic value has been studied extensively, less is known about their association with disease characteristics and treatment response. Methods: To address these questions, we designed a retrospective study including 2031 Mayo Clinic patients diagnosed with MM from 2004 to 2018. We compared baseline characteristics and treatment outcomes between primary cytogenetic groups: t(11;14), t(4;14), t(14;16), (14;20), t(6;14), unknown IgH translocation/del and trisomy (without IgH translocation). These included 373, 177, 78, 20, 18, 228 and 791 patients respectively. Kruskal-Wallis and Fisher’s exact tests were used for categorical and continuous variables respectively. Time to next treatment (TTNT) was estimated using Kaplan-Meier method and compared using Log-Rank test. Results: t(4;14), t(14;16), t(6;14) and t(14;20) groups were associated with hemoglobin < 10 g/dL, beta2microglobulin > 5.5 µg/ml, ISS stage 3 and ≥50% bone marrow plasma cells. The latter 3 groups were also associated with renal dysfunction (Cr ≥2 mg/dL) and higher urinary monoclonal protein. t(4;14) was associated with IgA isotype, serum monoclonal protein ≥1g/dL and plasma cell labeling index ≥1%. Light chain myeloma was more prevalent in patients with t(11;14). Overall response rate (ORR) to proteasome inhibitor (PI) induction was higher for those with IgH translocations (any) compared to trisomies (85% vs 77% P = 0.02), while ORR was higher for those with trisomies with immunomodulatory drug (IMiD) induction (90% vs 78% P < 0.01). The rate of ≥ very good partial response was higher for patients with high risk IgH translocations [t(4;14), t(14;16) or t(14;20)] compared to standard risk with PI-IMiD combination treatment (88% vs 65% P < 0.01). Otherwise, response rates did not differ between these 2 groups. TTNT was longer in patients with trisomies compared to those with IgH translocation with IMiD or PI-IMiD treatments (32.2 vs 19 and 44 vs 27.4 months, respectively P < 0.01). For all cytogenetic groups, better treatment responses and longer TTNT were seen with PI-IMiD combinations compared to other treatments. Conclusions: t(4;14), t(14;16), t(6;14), and t(14;20) are associated with high risk disease characteristics. Patients with IgH translocations may have better response to PI induction compared to those with trisomies, while those with trisomies may have better response to IMiD treatment, with best outcomes for both seen with PI-IMiD combinations.

7009 Background: Survival outcomes of 2nd line mCRC therapy for OA are poorly understood. We evaluated the rates and survival outcomes of 2nd line therapy among OA age 70+ compared to younger adults (YA) age < 70 following progression on 1st line clinical trials. Methods: Associations between clinical characteristics of pts with available treatment data after progression on 10 of 23 1st line ARCAD trials, time to initial progression (TTiP) and 2nd line therapy were evaluated. Time to progression (TTP) and overall survival (OS) were compared between OA and YA enrolled on 2nd line trials by Cox regression, adjusting for age, sex, ECOG PS, number of metastatic sites, presence of metastasis in lung/liver/peritoneum. Results: Sixteen percent of 1st line ARCAD trial participants were age 70+ (n = 870). Data for 2nd line therapy was available for 60.6% pts (3206/5289). Each additional decade of life was associated with 11% lower odds of receiving 2nd line therapy in multivariate analysis (p = 0.0117). OA participating in 2nd line trials (7.9% age 75+ of 7921) experience similar TTP and OS to YA (mTTP: 5.1 vs. 5.2mos; mOS 11.6 vs 12.4mos, respectively). Conclusions: We did not observe a statistical difference in survival outcomes by age following 2nd line mCRC therapy. Further study is needed to examine unmeasured comorbidity and use of geriatric assessment to select OA likely to benefit from 2nd line therapy. [Table: see text]

e13540 Background: The identification of pathogenic variants and variants of unknown significance (VUS) in multi-gene cancer predisposition testing raises new questions regarding cancer risk and management. We evaluated the personal and family cancer patterns and variation by race and ethnicity, among individuals positive for pathogenic variants in non-BRCA1/ 2 cancer predisposing genes. Methods: The Karmanos Cancer Institute (KCI) Cancer Genetics database was queried from May 13, 2013 through December 31, 2018. There were 3,544 unrelated individuals evaluated for hereditary cancer predisposition of whom 1,868 had 18-gene panel testing at 6 sites across Michigan. Data was collected on personal and family cancer history including ages at diagnosis utilizing a 3-generation pedigree, self-identified race and ethnicity and results of genetic testing. We describe the prevalence of pathogenic variants by proband cancer diagnosis, family history, race, and ethnicity. Results: The race/ethnic distribution of the tested cohort included 67.5% non-Hispanic White (NHW), 24.4% African American (AA), 2.1% Arab, 1.8% Ashkenazi Jewish (AJ), 1.0% Hispanic, and 3.4% other. The distribution of cancer diagnoses included 40.6% breast, 5.5% ovarian, 4.1% colon, 3.5% endometrial, 2.0% pancreas and 39.7% unaffected. Pathogenic variants were seen in 151 (8.1%) individuals and VUS in 309 (16.5%). The five most common pathogenic variants were CHEK2 (40), MUTYH (22), ATM (20), and PALB2 (18). The most common pathogenic variants by race and ethnicity were CHEK2 (NHW), RAD51C (AA), PALB2 (Arab), CHEK2, MSH6 (AJ), and none in Hispanics. Variants associated with the four most common cancer types were breast ( CHEK2 ), ovarian ( CHEK2, MUTYH, BRIP1), colon ( ATM), and endometrial ( MSH6, PALB2). Of 40 individuals with CHEK2 variants, 92.5% were NHW, and 34 (85%), 31 (78%), 10 (25%), 1 (2.5%) had family history of breast cancer, breast cancer before age 50, ovarian, and colon cancer, respectively. Of 20 with ATM variants, 95% were NHW, 13 had family history data and 10 (76.9%), 8 (61.5%), 2 (15.4%), 1 (7.7%) had family history of breast, breast cancer before age 50, ovarian, and colon cancer, respectively. Conclusions: Pathogenic variants seen using multigene panel testing differ by race, ethnicity and personal/family history of cancer. This data will inform genetic counseling strategies in regards to cancer risk and management. Data on additional genes updated through 2019 will be presented.

1506 Background: Hereditary breast and ovarian cancer (HBOC) is preventable when genetic risk is identified. We aimed to test whether pre and/or post-test genetic counseling is needed to optimally deliver online accessible genetic testing. Methods: MAGENTA (Making GENetic Testing Accessible) is a four-arm non-inferiority trial evaluating electronic genetic education and results delivery alone or combined with pre-test only, or post-test only telephone genetic counseling compared to mandatory pre- and post-test counseling (control arm) in women at risk of HBOC (NCT02993068). Regardless of assigned arm, all subjects with a pathogenic mutation received post-test telephone counseling. All subjects were enrolled electronically as part of either a family history cohort (FHC) or a cascade cohort (CC, known familial mutation). The primary outcome was cancer risk distress at 3 months and the trial was powered for the FHC. Secondary outcomes included completion of testing (i.e., received results), anxiety, depression, quality of life, and decisional regret, all measured by standardized scales. Results: Enrollment is complete and a total of 3,822 participants were randomized, 3,111 in FHC and 711 in CC. Participants were enrolled from all 50 states, but most were white/non-Hispanic (88%). Among participants that completed genetic testing, 173 (7.2%) had a mutation in a breast or ovarian cancer gene, with 114 (5.7%) of FHC and 59 (14.2%) of CC. In the primary intention-to-treat analysis of FHC, each of the three experimental arms was non-inferior to the control arm for distress at 3 months (p < 0.025/3 = 0.0083). In the CC, no and pre-test only counseling were also non-inferior (p < 0.025/3 = 0.0083). Distress was lowest in the arm with neither pre nor post-test counseling. Overall, 318 (18%) participants had very high distress at three month follow-up, and this rate was not significantly different across arms. Anxiety, depression and decisional regret did not have statistically significant differences across arms at follow-up. Test completion was highest in the no counseling arm (86.4%) and lowest in the control arm (60.6%). Conclusions: Electronic genetic education and results release without genetic counseling was non-inferior with regard to patient distress and was associated with higher test completion and lower distress. These results support use of a genetic testing paradigm providing individualized genetic counseling only for patients with positive test results. Clinical trial information: NCT02993068.

Background and Aims Portopulmonary hypertension (POPH) was previously associated with a single‐nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) rs7175922 in aromatase (cytochrome P450 family 19 subfamily A member 1 [CYP19A1]). We sought to determine whether genetic variants and metabolites in the estrogen signaling pathway are associated with POPH. Approach and Results We performed a multicenter case‐control study. POPH patients had mean pulmonary artery pressure >25 mm Hg, pulmonary vascular resistance >240 dyn‐sec/cm−5, and pulmonary artery wedge pressure ≤15 mm Hg without another cause of pulmonary hypertension. Controls had advanced liver disease, right ventricular (RV) systolic pressure <40 mm Hg, and normal RV function by echocardiography. We genotyped three SNPs in CYP19A1 and CYP1B1 using TaqMan and imputed SNPs in estrogen receptor 1 using genome‐wide markers. Estrogen metabolites were measured in blood and urine samples. There were 37 patients with POPH and 290 controls. Mean age was 57 years, and 36% were female. The risk allele A in rs7175922 (CYP19A1) was significantly associated with higher levels of estradiol (P = 0.02) and an increased risk of POPH (odds ratio [OR], 2.36; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.12‐4.91; P = 0.02) whereas other SNPs were not. Lower urinary 2‐hydroxyestrogen/16‐α‐hydroxyestrone (OR per 1‐ln decrease = 2.04; 95% CI, 1.16‐3.57; P = 0.01), lower plasma levels of dehydroepiandrosterone‐sulfate (OR per 1‐ln decrease = 2.38; 95% CI, 1.56‐3.85; P < 0.001), and higher plasma levels of 16‐α‐hydroxyestradiol (OR per 1‐ln increase = 2.16; 95% CI, 1.61‐2.98; P < 0.001) were associated with POPH. Conclusions Genetic variation in aromatase and changes in estrogen metabolites were associated with POPH.

We investigated the prevalence of spirometric restriction in liver transplantation (LT) candidates and the clinical impacts of restriction. We performed a cross‐sectional study within the Pulmonary Vascular Complications of Liver Disease 2 (PVCLD2) study, a multicenter prospective cohort study of patients being evaluated for LT. Patients with obstructive lung disease or missing spirometry or chest imaging were excluded. Patients with and without restriction, defined as a forced vital capacity (FVC) <70% predicted, were compared. Restriction prevalence was 18.4% (63/343). Higher Model for End‐Stage Liver Disease–sodium score (odds ratio [OR], 1.06; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.02‐1.11; P = 0.007), the presence of pleural effusions (OR, 3.59; 95% CI, 1.96‐6.58; P < 0.001), and a history of ascites (OR, 2.59; 95% CI, 1.26‐5.33; P = 0.01) were associated with the presence of restriction, though one‐third with restriction had neither pleural effusions nor ascites. In multivariate analysis, restriction was significantly and independently associated with lower 6‐minute walk distances (least squares mean, 342.0 [95% CI, 316.6‐367.4] m versus 395.7 [95% CI, 381.2‐410.2] m; P < 0.001), dyspnea (OR, 2.69; 95% CI, 1.46‐4.95; P = 0.002), and lower physical component summary Short Form 36 scores indicating worse quality of life (least squares mean, 34.1 [95% CI, 31.5‐36.7] versus 38.2 [95% CI, 36.6‐39.7]; P = 0.004). Lower FVC percent predicted was associated with an increased risk of death (hazard ratio, 1.16; 95% CI, 1.04‐1.27 per 10‐point decrease in FVC percent predicted; P = 0.01). Restriction and abnormal lung function are common in LT candidates; can be present in the absence of an obvious cause, such as pleural effusions or ascites; and is associated with worse exercise capacity, quality of life, and survival.

PURPOSE To develop recommendations for management of patients with breast cancer (BC) with germline mutations in BC susceptibility genes. METHODS The American Society of Clinical Oncology, American Society for Radiation Oncology, and Society of Surgical Oncology convened an Expert Panel to develop recommendations based on a systematic review of the literature and a formal consensus process. RESULTS Fifty-eight articles met eligibility criteria and formed the evidentiary basis for the local therapy recommendations; six randomized controlled trials of systemic therapy met eligibility criteria. RECOMMENDATIONS Patients with newly diagnosed BC and BRCA1/ 2 mutations may be considered for breast-conserving therapy (BCT), with local control of the index cancer similar to that of noncarriers. The significant risk of a contralateral BC (CBC), especially in young women, and the higher risk of new cancers in the ipsilateral breast warrant discussion of bilateral mastectomy. Patients with mutations in moderate-risk genes should be offered BCT. For women with mutations in BRCA1/ 2 or moderate-penetrance genes who are eligible for mastectomy, nipple-sparing mastectomy is a reasonable approach. There is no evidence of increased toxicity or CBC events from radiation exposure in BRCA1/ 2 carriers. Radiation therapy should not be withheld in ATM carriers. For patients with germline TP53 mutations, mastectomy is advised; radiation therapy is contraindicated except in those with significant risk of locoregional recurrence. Platinum agents are recommended versus taxanes to treat advanced BC in BRCA carriers. In the adjuvant/neoadjuvant setting, data do not support the routine addition of platinum to anthracycline- and taxane-based chemotherapy. Poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) inhibitors (olaparib and talazoparib) are preferable to nonplatinum single-agent chemotherapy for treatment of advanced BC in BRCA1/ 2 carriers. Data are insufficient to recommend PARP inhibitor use in the early setting or in moderate-penetrance carriers. Additional information available at www.asco.org/breast-cancer-guidelines .

Abstract Background: CRA is a surrogate for ovarian toxicity and associated risk of infertility and long-term menopausal symptoms. Therefore, it is important to assess and report the rate of CRA when we study a new neoadjuvant treatment regimen. In the Adjuvant Paclitaxel and Tratuzumab (APT) trial, we found that CRA rate associated with adjuvant TH (12 weeks of paclitaxel and a year of trastuzumab) for human epidermal growth factor receptor-2 (HER2)-positive breast cancer was lower than historically seen with cyclophosphamide-based regimens. The ATEMPT trial allowed a direct comparison of the CRA rate associated with TDM1 and TH. Methods: The ATEMPT trial randomized patients (pts) with Stage I HER2+ breast cancer 3:1 to T-DM1 3.6 mg/kg IV every 3 weeks (w) x17 vs. T 80 mg/m2 IV with H qw x 12 (4 mg/kg load →2 mg/kg), followed by H (6 mg/kg q3w x 13). Participants who reported that they were premenopausal at enrollment were asked to complete menstrual surveys at baseline and every 6-12 months throughout a 36 month follow-up period. For this analysis, CRA was defined as report of no menstruation within the prior six months on a survey completed 18 months after enrollment. Results: Of 512 ATEMPT enrollees, 497 began protocol therapy, 130 (26%) were premenopausal at enrollment and answered baseline menstrual questions, 42 of these 130 were excluded from the current analyses because they did not complete the 18-month survey, and 7 of the remaining 88 had received gonadotropin-releasing hormone agonist before 18 months, leaving 81 for analysis. None had undergone hysterectomy or oophorectomy. Median age was 44 (range 23-53) among the TH patients (n=20), and 46 (range 34-54) among the T-DM1 patients (n=61). On the 18-month survey, 45% of women treated with TH reported at least one one episode of menses during the prior 6 months compared to 75% of women in the T-DM1 arm (p=0.011). Among those ≤ 40 years old, 50% of TH patients and 100% of T-DM1 patients reported menstruation at that timepoint. Please see Table for additional data in subgroups. Conclusions: In this relatively small sample, CRA at 18 months was less common after adjuvant T-DM1 than after TH (though even with TH, nearly half of women did menstruate after chemotherapy, even in the subset aged 41+). This will be reassuring to young patients with HER2-positive breast cancer who seek to maintain ovarian function. Larger studies are needed to confirm this finding and to assess a possible differential impact of these drugs on subgroups based on age, endocrine therapy, and body mass index. Additional research should also focus on menopausal symptoms and actual fertility after receipt of T-DM1.

Chemotherapy-related amenorrhea (CRA) after adjuvant trastuzumab emtansine (T-DM1) compared to paclitaxel in combination with trastuzumab (TH) (TBCRC033: ATEMPT trial) [abstract]. In: Proceedings of the 2019 San Antonio Breast Cancer Symposium; 2019 Dec 10-14; San Antonio, TX. Philadelphia (PA): AACR; Cancer Res 2020;80(4 Suppl):Abstract nr P2-13-02.

522 Background: In the adjuvant setting, patients with HER2 breast cancer treated with trastuzumab and chemotherapy have superior survival compared to patients treated with chemotherapy alone. We previously showed that trastuzumab and chemotherapy induces HER2-specific antibodies which correlate with response to therapy in patients with HER2+ metastatic breast cancer. It remained unclear from those studies, however, whether the HER2-specific immunity played a role and if antibody immunity was associated with improved disease free survival in the adjuvant setting. In the present study, we addressed these questions by analyzing sera samples from a subset of patients enrolled in the NCCTG adjuvant trial, N9831, which includes an arm (Arm A) in which trastuzumab was not used. Arms B and C received trastuzumab sequentially or concurrently to chemotherapy, respectively. Methods: Pre-and post-treatment initiation sera were obtained from 50 women enrolled in N9831 (22 Arm A; 14 Arm B, and 14 Arm C). Lambda IgG antibodies (to avoid detection of trastuzumab) to HER2 were measured and presented as an index (>0.2 was considered a positive response). Results: Prior to therapy, across all three arms, N9831 patients had similar mean HER2 IgG levels (0.19 units in Arm A, 0.14 in Arm B, and 0.23 in Arm C, P=0.85). Following treatment, the mean levels of antibodies increased in Arm B to 0.35 units and in Arm C to 0.56 units and were higher (p<0.001) than in Arm A where levels did not increase. The proportion of patients who demonstrated antibody immunity increased by 9% in Arm A, 50% in Arm B and 28% in Arm C (P=0.026). Although the event rate was low in this cohort, Cox modeling suggested that larger increases in antibodies were associated with improved disease free survival (HR=0.23; p=0.04). Conclusions: These results show that the increased antibody immunity observed in adjuvant patients treated with combination trastuzumab and chemotherapy is clinically significant and results from the inclusion of trastuzumab. The findings may have important implications for improving treatment outcomes in patients treated with trastuzumab.
