LBA2 Background: Docetaxel (D) improves OS of men with mPrCa who have progressed on androgen deprivation therapy (ADT). We aimed to assess the benefit of upfront chemohormonal therapy for metastatic PrCa. Methods: 1:1 randomization to ADT alone or ADT + D dosed 75mg/m2 every 3 weeks for 6 cycles within 4 month (mos) of starting ADT. Stratification factors: high volume (HV) vs. low volume (LV) disease (HV: visceral metastases and/or 4 or more bone metastases); anti-androgen use beyond 30 days; Age ≥70 vs. < 70 years; ECOG PS 0-1 vs. 2; Prior adjuvant ADT > 12 vs. ≤ 12 mos; FDA approved drug for delaying skeletal related events. Key eligibility criteria: suitable organ and neurological function for D; adjuvant ADT ≤ 24 mos and no progression within 12 mos of adjuvant ADT. OS was the primary endpoint and the study was powered to assess for a 33.3% improvement in median OS (80% power and 1-sided alpha=2.5%). Projected median OS for ADT alone: HV-33 mos; LV-67 mos. Results: 790 men were accrued from 7/28/06 to 11/21/2012: ADT N=393; ADT + D: N=397; balanced for demographic, stratification and disease factors. Median age: 63 years (range: 36 to 91); 98% ECOG PS 0 or 1; 89% Caucasian; 24% prior radiotherapy, 24% prior prostatectomy; HV 64% on ADT and 67% on ADT + D. Data released after 4th interim analysis in Sept 2013 when O’Brien Fleming upper boundary was crossed with 53.1% information. This report reflects 1/16/2014 data with median follow-up of 29 mos with 137 deaths on ADT alone vs. 104 deaths on ADT+D. ADT+D: Grade (G) 3/4 Neutropenic fever: 4%/2%; G3 neuropathy: 1% sensory, 1% motor; 1 death due to treatment (no deaths due to treatment on ADT). Efficacy data is in the table below. After disease progression, 123 pts on ADT alone and 45 pts on ADT + D received docetaxel. Conclusions: ADT + D improves OS over ADT alone in men with HV mPrCa. Longer follow-up is needed for men with LV mPrCa. Clinical trial information: NCT00309985. [Table: see text]

475 Background: The vascular disrupting agent (VDA) BNC105P shows synergy with everolimus in preclinical models. The DisrupTOR-1 trial included a phase I component exploring this combination and a randomized phase II component comparing everolimus with BNC105P (Arm A) to everolimus monotherapy (Arm B) (Pal et al. ESMO 2014). Methods: Pts with clear cell mRCC and 1-2 prior therapies (including ≥1 VEGF-TKI) were randomized in the phase II study component. In Arm A, patients received a 7 day lead-in dose of everolimus followed by dosing with BNC105P. Patients in Arm A had optional blood collections prior to administration of BNC105P and 3 hours after receiving BNC105P. A fluorescence-based assay was used to characterize a broad panel of analytes at each time point. Biomarkers were assessed in both a static and dynamic fashion. For the former, biomarkers were stratified by median value, and progression-free survival (PFS) was compared in resulting subgroups using the Kaplan-Meier method. For the latter, change in biomarker level before and after BNC105P infusion was stratified by median difference, and PFS was compared in resulting subgroups using the Kaplan-Meier method. Results: 139 pts were randomized with 69 and 67 evaluable pts in Arms A and B, respectively. Dynamic biomarkers were assessed in a total of 44 patients who received everolimus with BNC105P. Increases in matrix metalloproteinase-9 (MMP-9) and stem cell factor (SCF) were associated with improved PFS (p=0.0421 and p=0.0291, respectively). Decreases in sex hormone binding globulin (SHBG) and serum amyloid protein (SAP) were associated with improved PFS (p=0.0184 and p=0.0063). With respect to static biomarkers, elevated baseline ferritin and lower baseline IL-8 were associated with improved PFS (p=0.0291 and p=0.0149, respectively). Conclusions: Several static and dynamic biomarkers in the DisrupTOR-1 trial were associated with PFS. A prospective biomarker-driven study examining everolimus with BNC105P selected by baseline IL-8 and ferritin is in development. Clinical trial information: NCT01034631.

653 Background: Next-generation sequencing often reveals potentially actionable molecular alterations; however, data on approved targeted therapies in non-indicated tumors are limited. MyPathway (NCT02091141) evaluates agents targeting the HER2, EGFR, BRAF, or Hedgehog (Hh) pathways in tumors for which these therapies are not currently indicated. Here, we present early response data for patients with GI tumors. Methods: Eligible patients had metastatic tumors with potentially actionable genomic alterations, identified by a CLIA-certified lab, and progression on standard therapy. Based on the identified alteration, patients received standard doses of trastuzumab + pertuzumab (HER2), erlotinib (EGFR), vemurafenib (BRAF), or vismodegib (Hh). Response was evaluated by the investigator using RECIST v1.1. Results: As of Aug 21, 2015, 96 patients had enrolled, 36 of whom (38%) had GI tumors with the following alterations: HER2 (n=28 [22 amplifications, 5 activating mutations, 1 both]), BRAF (n=4), Hh (n=2 [2 PTCH-1 mutations]), and EGFR (n=2). Patients had a median of 4 (range, 1–8) prior lines of therapy. Tumor types and interim best response data are shown below. Among all evaluable patients with GI tumors (n=26), 5 have had a PR to targeted therapy (duration 3–10+ months). Conclusions: Targetable molecular alterations were found in a variety of GI tumors, resulting in clinical benefit from targeted treatments that would not have otherwise been realized. These early results support this molecular testing strategy. Accrual to the trial continues; based on activity observed, the HER2-positive colorectal cancer cohort will be expanded to ≥30 patients. Additional data will be presented at the meeting. Clinical trial information: NCT02091141. [Table: see text]

Abstract Purpose: BNC105P inhibits tubulin polymerization, and preclinical studies suggest possible synergy with everolimus. In this phase I/II study, efficacy and safety of the combination were explored in patients with metastatic renal cell carcinoma (mRCC). Experimental Design: A phase I study in patients with clear cell mRCC and any prior number of therapies was conducted using a classical 3 + 3 design to evaluate standard doses of everolimus with increasing doses of BNC105P. At the recommended phase II dose (RP2D), patients with clear cell mRCC and one to two prior therapies (including ≥ 1 VEGF-TKI) were randomized to BNC105P with everolimus (arm A) or everolimus alone (arm B). The primary endpoint of the study was 6-month progression-free survival (6MPFS). Secondary endpoints included response rate, PFS, overall survival, and exploratory biomarker analyses. Results: In the phase I study (N = 15), a dose of BNC105P at 16 mg/m2 with everolimus at 10 mg daily was identified as the RP2D. In the phase II study, 139 patients were randomized, with 69 and 67 evaluable patients in arms A and B, respectively. 6MPFS was similar in the treatment arms (arm A: 33.82% vs. arm B: 30.30%, P = 0.66) and no difference in median PFS was observed (arm A: 4.7 mos vs. arm B: 4.1 mos; P = 0.49). Changes in matrix metalloproteinase-9, stem cell factor, sex hormone-binding globulin, and serum amyloid A protein were associated with clinical outcome with BNC105P. Conclusions: Although the primary endpoint was not met in an unselected population, correlative studies suggest several biomarkers that warrant further prospective evaluation.
