TPS4165 Background: Oncogenic activation of FGFR2 via genomic rearrangement, gene amplification, or point mutation in advanced solid tumors provides the opportunity for rapid clinical development of highly selective FGFR2 inhibitors using a precision oncology approach to deliver clinical benefit to genomically-defined patient (pt) populations. Unfortunately, this opportunity remains largely unrealized as current, non-selective small molecule inhibitors (pan-FGFRi) suffer from off-isoform toxicity (FGFR1-hyperphosphatemia; FGFR4-diarrhea) and on-target acquired resistance leading to only modest efficacy primarily limited to FGFR2-fusion+ intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (ICC). RLY-4008 is a novel, oral FGFR2 inhibitor designed to overcome the limitations of pan-FGFRi by potently and selectively targeting primary oncogenic FGFR2 alterations and acquired resistance mutations. We initiated a first-in-human (FIH) precision oncology study of RLY-4008 in advanced solid tumor pts with FGFR2 alterations with primary objectives to define the maximum tolerated dose/recommended phase 2 dose (MTD/RP2D) and adverse event (AE) profile of RLY-4008 and key secondary objectives to assess FGFR2 genotype in blood and tumor tissue, pharmacokinetics (PK), and anti-tumor activity. Methods: This is a global, multi-center, FIH dose escalation/expansion study of RLY-4008 (NCT04526106) in adult pts who have unresectable or metastatic solid tumors with FGFR2 alteration per local assessment, ECOG performance status 0-2, measurable or evaluable disease per RECIST 1.1, and who are refractory, intolerant, or declined standard therapy including pan-FGFRi. FGFR2 alteration will be confirmed retrospectively by central laboratory assessment. For the dose escalation (Ñ50), RLY-4008 is administered QD/BID on a continuous schedule with 4-week cycles according to a Bayesian Optimal Interval design that allows accelerated dose titration, additional accrual to dose levels declared tolerable, and exploration of alternative schedules if warranted. The MTD is determined via logistic regression of the dose limiting toxicity rate across all dose levels and an RP2D less than the MTD may be considered based on observed AEs, PK, and anti-tumor activity. Following dose escalation, the dose expansion (Ñ75) will treat pts with RLY-4008 at the MTD/RP2D and includes 5 groups with any prior therapy (except group 2): 1. FGFR2 fusion+ ICC pts; 2. FGFR2 fusion+ ICC pts with no prior FGFRi; 3. FGFR2 fusion+ pts with other solid tumors; 4. FGFR2-mutation+ solid tumor pts and 5. FGFR2-amplified solid tumor pts. The primary endpoints are MTD/RP2D and AE profile; key secondary endpoints are FGFR2 genotype in blood and tumor tissue, PK parameters; overall response rate, and duration of response per RECIST 1.1. US enrollment began SEP2020 and Europe/Asia start-up is underway. Clinical trial information: NCT04526106.

4086 Background: Pemigatinib (PEMI), a potent, selective, oral FGFR1-3 inhibitor, has shown efficacy and safety in patients (pts) with CCA and FGFR2 rearrangements/fusions in FIGHT-202 (NCT02924376; objective response rate [ORR], 35.5%; duration of response [DOR], 7.2 months [mo]). Overall survival (OS: 21.1 mo) was not mature in the primary report (Abou-Alfa. Lancet Oncol 2020; cutoff: Mar 22, 2019); herein we report matured efficacy and safety data from FIGHT-202 (cutoff: Apr 7, 2020). Methods: Pts (≥18 y) with known FGF/FGFR alterations and progression after ≥1 prior therapy had FGFR2 rearrangements/fusions (cohort A), other FGF/FGFR alterations (B), or no FGF/FGFR alterations (C). Pts received PEMI 13.5 mg QD (21-d cycle; 2 wks on, 1 wk off) until progression or toxicity. Primary endpoint: independent, centrally confirmed ORR (cohort A); secondary endpoints: ORR (cohorts B, C; cohorts A and B combined); DOR, disease control rate (DCR), progression free survival (PFS), OS, and safety. A post-hoc analysis in cohort A evaluated mOS in responders (pts with complete response [CR] or partial response [PR]) vs non-responders (pts with progressive disease [PD] or stable disease (SD]). Results: At cutoff, 147 pts were enrolled (cohort A, n=108; B, n=20; C, n=17; FGF/FGFR status undetermined, n=2); median follow-up was 30.4 (range, 4.9–38.7) mo and median treatment duration was 5.9 (0.2–36.5) mo. In cohort A, 9.3% of pts remained on therapy at cutoff; in cohorts B and C, all pts had discontinued. Pts discontinued mainly for PD (67.6%, 75%, and 64.7% in cohorts A, B, and C respectively). Independent, centrally confirmed ORR was 37.0%; mOS was 17.5 mo (95% CI, 14.4-22.9) in cohort A (Table 1). mOS for responders (n=40) vs non-responders (n=68) was 30.1 (95% CI, 21.5-NE) mo vs 13.7 (9.6-16.1) mo. Overall, most common all-cause treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs) were hyperphosphatemia (58.5%; grade ≥3, 0%), alopecia (49.7%; 0%), diarrhea (46.9%; 3.4%), fatigue (43.5%; 5.4%), nausea (41.5%; 2%), and dysgeusia (40.8%; 0%); 10.2%, 13.6% and 42.2% of pts discontinued, had dose reduction, and treatment interruption due to TEAEs, respectively. Conclusions: These results reinforce the primary data, showing continued, durable responses and sustained tolerability in pts receiving PEMI for CCA harboring FGFR2 rearrangements/fusions. Notably, the matured OS is longer than historical data; OS for responders was more than twice as long vs for non-responders. Clinical trial information: NCT02924376. [Table: see text]

Objective “Pain interference” and “headache impact” refer to negative consequences that pain and headache have on one’s life. This study investigated determinants of these negative impacts in a large patient cohort who have chronic migraine with medication overuse. Methods Six hundred and eleven adults were enrolled from 34 headache, neurology, and primary care clinics. Negative consequences of chronic migraine with medication overuse were determined using the Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System (PROMIS) Pain Interference 6b questionnaire and the Headache Impact Test 6. Relationships between PROMIS-6b and Headache Impact Test 6 scores with demographics, headache characteristics, medication use, anxiety symptoms, and depression symptoms were assessed with linear regression. Elastic Net regression was used to develop a multiple regression model. Results PROMIS-6b T-Scores averaged 65.2 (SD 5.4) and Headache Impact Test 6 scores averaged 65.0 (SD 5.3), indicating severe negative consequences of chronic migraine with medication overuse. Chronic migraine with medication overuse interfered with enjoyment of life, concentration, daily activities, doing tasks away from home, and socializing. Depression symptom severity had the strongest relationship with pain interference and headache impact. Moderate-to-severe headache frequency, headache intensity, and anxiety symptoms were also associated with pain interference and headache impact. Conclusions Chronic migraine with medication overuse is associated with substantial negative consequences, the extent of which is most strongly related to depression symptoms.

Abstract Objective To describe headache characteristics, medication use, disability, and quality of life in a large patient cohort from the United States who have chronic migraine (CM) and medication overuse headache (MOH). Methods In all, 610 adult patients were enrolled into the Medication Overuse Treatment Strategy trial from 34 healthcare clinics, including headache specialty, general neurology, and primary care clinics. Descriptive statistics characterize baseline demographics, headache characteristics, medication use, disability (Headache Impact Test 6 [HIT‐6] and Migraine Functional Impact Questionnaire [MFIQ]), pain interference (PROMIS Pain Interference), and quality of life (EQ‐5D‐5L). Relationships with headache frequency were assessed. Results Mean age was 45 years (SD 13) and 531/608 (87.3%) were females. Mean headache days per 30 was 24.3 (SD 5.5), including 13.6 (SD 7.1) with moderate to severe headache. Daily headaches were reported by 36.1% (219/607) of patients. Acute headache medications were used on 21.5 (SD 7.5) per 30 days. The most commonly overused medications were simple analgesics (378/607, 62% of patients), combination analgesics (246/607, 41%), and triptans (128/607, 21%). HIT‐6, MFIQ, PROMIS Pain Interference, and EQ‐5D‐5L scores demonstrated substantial negative impact from CM with MOH on patient functioning and quality of life. Higher headache frequency was associated with more moderate–severe headache days, more frequent acute headache medication use, greater headache‐related disability, and lower quality of life. Only 272/606 (44.9%) were taking migraine preventive medication. Conclusions CM with MOH is associated with a large burden on patients in the United States. Higher headache frequency is associated with greater impact on functioning, pain interference, and quality of life.

e16686 Background: Genetic alterations in the FGFR pathway are emerging as promising therapeutic targets in CCA. The clinical and molecular features of patients (pts) with CCA harboring FGFR genetic alterations are reported here. Methods: A retrospective chart review was performed in pts with CCA who were found to have an FGFR alteration on tumor molecular profiling as part of routine care between 9/2007 and 12/2019. Data on demographics, risk factors, pathology, molecular characteristics, systemic therapies, radiographical response, time on treatment, and overall survival (OS) were collected in a multi-center collaborative effort across seven academic centers. Results: Among 135 pts with FGFR-altered CCA, the median age at diagnosis was 57 years old (range = 25-92 years), and 80 (59.3%) pts were female, 129 (95.6%) had intrahepatic CCA, and 6 (5.6%) had chronic HBV. At presentation, 28.2% of pts had resectable disease, including 65.0% with Stage I-II, 22.5% with Stage III, and 5.0% with Stage IV. At the time of initial diagnosis, CA19-9 was < 35U/mL in 42.6% of pts. Bone metastases were observed in 41 (30.6%) pts with advanced disease. FGFR2 fusions were the most common FGFR alteration (68.2%), followed by FGFR2 mutations (21.5%), FGFR3 mutations (3.7%), FGFR2 rearrangements (1.5%), FGFR1 amplification (1.5%), and FGFR2 amplification (1.5%). The most common FGFR2 fusion partners were BICC1 (28.3%), SORBS1 (4.4%), POC1B (3.3%), and TACC2 (3.3%). The median lines of palliative systemic therapies received was 3 (range = 0-8), and 40/135 (29.6%) pts received a liver-directed therapy. For the 55 (59.8%) pts with FGFR2 fusions who received gemcitabine/cisplatin as first-line palliative systemic therapy, the median time on treatment was 6.2 months (95% CI: 4.1-9.3). The median OS from time of initial diagnosis was 36.1 months (95% CI: 28.3-51.6) in the FGFR2 fusion positive cohort. Among the 92 pts with FGFR2 fusions, 70 (76.1%) pts received an FGFR inhibitor on a clinical trial; 12 (17.1%) were subsequently treated with a second FGFR inhibitor, and 58.3% stayed on the second FGFR inhibitor for ≥4 months. Pts with a BICC1 fusion partner (n = 16) had an overall response rate of 42.9% on FGFR-selective inhibitors compared to 30.8% in non-BICC1 fusion partners (n = 54). Conclusions: Pts with CCA harboring FGFR alterations were found to have a high rate of normal CA19-9, high rate of bone metastases, and short median time on treatment on first-line palliative gemcitabine/cisplatin. Additional comparative studies are necessary to evaluate these findings.

The NCCN Guidelines for Hepatobiliary Cancers provide treatment recommendations for cancers of the liver, gallbladder, and bile ducts. The NCCN Hepatobiliary Cancers Panel meets at least annually to review comments from reviewers within their institutions, examine relevant new data from publications and abstracts, and reevaluate and update their recommendations. These NCCN Guidelines Insights summarize the panel’s discussion and updated recommendations regarding systemic therapy for first-line and subsequent-line treatment of patients with hepatocellular carcinoma.

451 Background: Gemcitabine plus platinum (GP) is the standard of care first-line treatment for advanced biliary tract cancers (BTC). There is no established second-line therapy, and retrospective reviews report progression-free survival (PFS) for second-line treatment to be < 3 months. 5-Fluorouracil plus irinotecan (FOLFIRI) is a commonly used regimen in patients (pts) with BTC who have progressed on GP, though there is a paucity of data regarding its efficacy in this population. Methods: We retrospectively evaluated pts with advanced BTC who were treated with FOLFIRI at MD Anderson, University of Michigan and Mayo Clinic in Jacksonville. Data were obtained on pt demographics, type of BTC, PFS, and overall survival (OS). Results: Ninety-eight pts were included of which 74 (76%) had metastatic disease at the time of treatment with FOLFIRI. The median age was 59 (range, 22 to 86) years. The number of pts with extrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (CCA)/gall bladder (GB)/intrahepatic CCA were 10, 17, and 71. FOLFIRI was used as 1st, 2nd, 3rd or 4th – Nth lines in 8, 50, 36, and 4 pts, respectively. Of the 65 pts whose best responses were documented, 23 (35%) had stable disease and 7 (11%) had a partial response per RECIST v1.1. Median duration on FOLFIRI was 2.2 months. The median PFS and OS were 2.4 (95% CI 1.7 to 3.1) and 6.6 (95% CI 4.7 to 8.4) months, respectively. Median PFS for pts treated with FOLFIRI in 1st, 2nd, 3rd or 4th – Nth lines were 3.1, 2.5, 2.3 and 1.5 months, respectively. Eighteen pts received concurrent bevacizumab (13) or EGFR-targeted therapy (5) with FOLFIRI, and both of groups exhibited a median PFS of 2.7 months. Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance status (PS) of 0-1 was associated with improved OS (P = 0.006) compared to PS of 2-3. Conclusions: In this multi-institution retrospective review of 98 pts with BTC treated with FOLFIRI, efficacy of this regimen appears to be modest. While PFS and OS outcomes were similar to what has been previously reported, the 46% disease control rate in this group of predominantly pretreated pts is encouraging. Given the lack of other standard therapies, FOLFIRI may still have a role in this pt population, but these results emphasize the need for more effective treatment options for pts with advanced, pretreated BTC.

4016 Background: No standard treatment options are available for patients with advanced BC who fail gemcitabine/platinum therapy. The rationale for evaluation of trametinib was based on the presence of MAPK alterations and on earlier promising results with other MEK inhibitors in BC. Methods: Pts with histologically proven BC who progressed on gemcitabine/platinum were randomized to trametinib (2mg qd) (Arm A) vs infusional 5FU at 2400 mg/m2 over 46 hours or capecitabine (1000 mg/m2PO days 1-14 BID) (Arm B). Patients were stratified by planned chemotherapy 5FU/LV vs capecitabine; and disease site: cholangiocarcinoma vs gallbladder. The primary endpoint was overall survival (OS). Secondary endpoints included progression-free survival (PFS) and response rate (RR). 80 eligible patients (40 for each arm) were needed to detect an improvement in median OS from 5 months to 8.25 months (1.65 HR). A planned interim futility analysis of objective response was performed on the first 14 pts registered to the trametinib arm. Results: The study was stopped early based on the lack of measurable response in the trametinib arm. 53 pts were randomized (27 pts in Arm A vs 26 pts in Arm B). Median age was 62 years and the primary sites of tumor were cholangiocarcinoma (77%) and gallbladder (23%). Median OS was 4.3 months (95% CI 3.1-5.1) for Arm A, and 8.0 months (95% CI 3.2-14.6) for Arm B with a HR of 2.02 (95% CI 1.01-4.03, p=0.05). The median PFS was 1.3 months (95% CI 1.2-1.5) for arm A and 2.8 months (95% CI 1.4-6.9) for arm B with a HR of 2.95 (95% CI 1.38-6.30, p=0.01). Overall RR was 8% (95% CI 0%, 19%) in Arm A vs 10% (95% CI 0%, 23%) in Arm B (p>0.99), and 8% vs 45% had stable disease. Eight pts in Arm A experienced treatment-related ≥ grade 3 toxicities, including one death due to vomiting/dehydration. Seven pts in Arm B experienced treatment-related grade 3 toxicities; no higher grade toxicities were reported. Conclusions: To our knowledge, this is the first prospective randomized study of a targeted agent versus chemotherapy for the second line treatment of BC. In this unselected population, the lack of response to trametinib resulted in early closure. The PFS and OS for trametinib were inferior to 5FU. Clinical trial information: 02042443.

ABSTRACTPoorly differentiated primary pulmonary synovial sarcomas are rare and challenging for a surgical pathologist to diagnose. Although the demonstration of the tumor specific translocation, t (x; 18)(p11.2;q11.2) or the resultant fusion gene (SYT-SSX) is the gold standard for diagnosis, this test is not always accessible. We report the use of immunohistochemistry, including transducer-like enhancer of split-1 in the diagnosis of one such tumor in a young individual.
