Abstract Background: Polygenic risk scores (PRS) based on a large number of SNPs associated with breast cancer have recently been made available in combination with multigene panel testing for clinical management of breast cancer risk. Breast cancer risk assessment has historically been performed using various non-genetic risk models, which predict lifetime risk of breast cancer in unaffected women based on personal and family history information. While clinical use of PRS in combination with these models continues to increase, the predictive performance of a PRS combined with clinical information in real-world patient populations has not been thoroughly investigated. Methods: We assessed a 100-SNP breast cancer PRS in combination with the Tyrer-Cuzick model-estimated lifetime breast cancer risk in 5,374 Caucasian women from the case-control Mayo Clinic Breast Cancer Study (MCBCS), comprised of 3,373 breast cancer cases and 2,001 unaffected controls seen at Mayo Clinic from 2004 to 2016. Clinical, family history, and demographic information was collected on all MCBCS participants via questionnaires and medical record review. SNPs were selected for the PRS if they exceeded genome-wide significance in ≥2 large-scale breast cancer genome wide association studies (GWAS) in women of European descent. Selected SNPs were then used to construct a population standardized PRS, accounting for per-allele odds ratios reported in the largest GWAS to date and population-specific allele frequencies. PRS and Tyrer-Cuzick model associations with breast cancer and related clinical features were tested using multivariate logistic regression. Results: Among cases and controls, mean±SD age at diagnosis and study enrollment was 56.4±12.4 and 56.2±14.1, respectively. Approximately 36.9% of cases and 16.9% of controls had ≥1 first- or second-degree relative with breast or ovarian cancer, respectively. Among unaffected women, the median (IQR) estimated lifetime risk of breast cancer to age 85 based on Tyrer-Cuzick alone was 8.3% (6.9%), and 2.6% had a clinically actionable lifetime risk of ≥20%. The mean±SD sum of the risk alleles across 100 SNPs was significantly higher for cases vs. controls (94.8±6.3 vs. 92.7±6.2, p<0.001). Compared to women in the lowest quartile of PRS, those in the 2nd, 3rd and 4th quartiles were 1.47 (95% CI: 1.26-1.72), 1.87 (95% CI: 1.60-2.19), and 2.22 (95% CI: 1.89-2.61) times more likely to have breast cancer after adjustment for age and family history. The AUC was 0.59 (95% CI: 0.58-0.61) for PRS and 0.60 (95% CI: 0.58-0.61) for Tyrer-Cuzick model estimated risk alone; but when combined, the model achieved an AUC of 0.63 (95% CI: 0.62-0.65). Among unaffected women, 6.7% had ≥20% lifetime risk of breast cancer based on the combined PRS-clinical model. Conclusions: These findings suggest that the 100-SNP PRS significantly improves estimation of breast cancer risk based on non-genetic models, and can be used to further identify women at increased lifetime risk who would otherwise not be identified by clinical assessment alone.

Abstract Background: Patients who achieve a pathological complete response (pCR- defined as no invasive cancer) after neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) for breast cancer (BC) have improved outcomes, but there is still controversy about the significance of residual ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS) on local recurrence rate (LRR). The I-SPY 2 TRIAL is an adaptive neoadjuvant platform trial evaluating novel experimental regimens in comparison to standard chemotherapy in women with high-risk breast cancer. The purpose of this study is to determine if residual DCIS after NAC in early BC affects LRR in patients with or without residual invasive disease in the I-SPY 2 TRIAL. Methods: 933 I-SPY 2 patients with residual cancer burden (RCB) and follow-up data were included in this analysis. Residual DCIS was defined as any carcinoma in situ > 0% on RCB evaluation. Local recurrence was defined as recurrence in breast, chest wall or locoregional nodes and/or skin and subcutaneous tissue. We stratified our cohort into four groups: those without residual invasive disease (defined as RCB0) ± residual DCIS, and those with residual invasive disease (RCB>0) ± residual DCIS. We estimated LRR within each group using the Kaplan Meier method; and used Cox proportional hazards models to assess LRR differences between groups, with: patients with no residual disease (invasive or in situ) as reference group. Results: Among 933 patients assessed, median follow up time was 3.9 years. RCB 0 status was achieved in 337 patients (36%). Of these, 267 (29%) had no residual DCIS, which represents our reference group, and 70 (7%) had residual DCIS. Among 596 (64%) patients who had RCB>0, 296 (32%) had residual DCIS. For patients with RCB0 without DCIS and RCB0 with DCIS, the LRR at 3 years were similar: 2% vs 3% respectively (Hazard ratio: 1.29 [0.26-6.39]). Results were also similar in the RCB>0 group, with a LRR of 10% at 3 years in those without residual DCIS, and 11% in those with residual DCIS. Both RCB>0 groups had significantly higher LRR when compared to the patients with RCB0 without DCIS (Hazard ratio: 5.25 [2.20-12.5]) and HR 5.85 [2.47-13.9] respectively). Conclusion: There was no association between residual DCIS and LRR after neoadjuvant chemotherapy, regardless of resolution of invasive disease. Further work is needed to determine whether residual DCIS should drive locoregional therapy decisions after neoadjuvant chemotherapy for invasive breast cancer.

Abstract Background: We have previously identified Glycogen Synthase Kinase-3 beta (GSK-3β) nuclear accumulation as a hallmark of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) and demonstrated the antitumor effects of GSK-3β tool compound inhibitors in vivo (Ougolkov, Clin Cancer Res 2006). 9-ING-41 (Actuate Therapeutics Inc), a first-in-class, small-molecule potent selective GSK-3β inhibitor, has significant preclinical antitumor activity in PDAC. 9-ING-41 is synergistic with gemcitabine (GEM) in significantly reducing PDAC cell proliferation via impairment of ATR/Chk1 DNA damage response (Ding, Clin Cancer Res 2019). These data provided the rationale for inclusion of patients with PDAC in the 1801 phase 1/2 study evaluating 9-ING-41 alone and in combination with chemotherapy, including GEM and GEM plus nab-paclitaxel. Methods: Parts 1 and 2 of the 1801 phase 1/2 study evaluate the safety and tolerability of 9-ING-41 in patients with refractory malignancies. Part 1 establishes the recommended phase 2 study dose (RP2D) for 9-ING-41 monotherapy, while Part 2 assesses 9-ING-41 in combination with chemotherapies. For Part 1, patients received twice-weekly IV infusions of 9-ING-41 (21-day cycle). Based on prior treatment, Part 2 for those with PDAC consists of 9-ING-41 plus GEM (1000 to 1250 mg/m2 days 1 and 8; 21-day cycle) or 9-ING-41 plus GEM and nab-paclitaxel (125 mg/m2). Part 3 (Simon 2-stage phase 2 at the RP2D) will assess clinical benefit in patients with refractory PDAC treated with 9-ING-41-based combinations at the RP2D established in Part 2. Response is defined by response evaluation criteria in solid tumors (RECIST) criteria in evaluable lesions. The study is opening in 25 sites globally and will accrue approximately 300 patients. Results: To date, the study has accrued 34 patients with advanced solid tumors (n=33) or hematologic malignancies (n=1). Four dose levels (1, 2, 3.3, and 5 mg/kg) have been completed without dose-limiting toxicities (DLT). Part 2 of the study evaluating combination of 9-ING-41 with chemotherapy agents has been activated. Six patients with advanced PDAC have enrolled. One patient has completed 5 cycles of treatment with 9-ING-41 (1mg/kg) with stable disease (SD) as the best response. Another patient with SD as the best response has completed 6 cycles and now is joining the arm combining 9-ING-41 with GEM after disease progression. Four additional patients are awaiting first response assessment with enrollment ongoing. 9-ING-41-attributable AE to date are Grade 1 transient visual changes (color perception). Conclusions: 9-ING-41 is well tolerated. Preclinical data support the inclusion of patients with advanced PDAC on clinical studies of 9-ING-41. Citation Format: Benedito A.

e20029 Background: Diffuse idiopathic pulmonary neuroendocrine cell hyperplasia (DIPNECH) is a pulmonary disorder with neuroendocrine cell proliferation with potential progression to lung neuroendocrine tumor (Lu-NET). Optimal diagnostic and treatment strategies have yet to be well defined. Herein, we aim to describe the Mayo Clinic experience with DIPNECH. Methods: A retrospective analysis was performed of patients diagnosed with DIPNECH within Mayo Clinic between January 2000-Febuary 2019. Cases were identified from clinical databases at Mayo Clinic. Data on demographics, disease characteristics, time of diagnosis, surgery, and last follow up date were extracted. Extent of symptom burden, treatment approaches, disease progression, and disease-free survival (DFS) were evaluated by chart review. Results: A total of 59 patients were identified with a median age of 63(43-81) years. The cohort was predominantly female (93.2%) and non-smoking (76.3%). Most patients (86.4%) had symptomatic disease with chronic cough being the most common (71.2%) followed by exertional dyspnea (44.1%). Imaging typically showed bilateral lung nodules (93.2%) with mosaic attenuation noted 69.5% of the time. Surgical resection was frequently completed to confirm diagnosis (94.9%). Most patients received inhaled glucocorticoids combined with a beta agonist (79.7%). Oral steroid use was seen in 49.2% of patients whereas a somatostatin analog was used in 15.3% following the diagnosis of DIPNECH. These medical interventions led to symptom relief in 23.7% of the patients. The median follow up for all patients was 19.5 months. Progression of tumorlets was seen in 48.7% of patients with only 7(17.9%) patients progressing to a diagnosis of Lu-NET. The 3-year DFS was 90.5%. Conclusions: This is amongst the largest studies completed evaluating DIPNECH patients. DIPNECH remains a rare disease more commonly diagnosed in women in their early 60’s. DIPNECH appears to have an indolent course with obstructive symptoms being the most common finding. A minority of patients experienced symptom relief with therapy. Overall, DIPNECH appears to have a low risk of progressing to Lu-NET based on the observation of this study.

7519 Background: Acalabrutinib, a highly selective, potent, covalent Bruton tyrosine kinase (BTK) inhibitor, has a 24% overall response rate (ORR) as a single agent in R/R DLBCL. Pem targets PD-1, an immune checkpoint that limits anticancer responses. Pem showed responses in patients (pts) with Richter transformation who failed ibrutinib and can augment acalabrutinib activity in vitro. This study assessed acalabrutinib + Pem in R/R DLBCL. Methods: Pts with DLBCL, ≥1 prior chemoimmunotherapy and no prior allogeneic transplant received acalabrutinib 100 mg PO BID until progressive disease (PD) + Pem 200 mg/kg IV Q3W up to 2 y. Germinal center B-cell (GCB) vs non-GCB subtype was assessed by immunohistochemistry. Primary endpoint was safety. Results: Sixty-one pts (30 GCB; 31 non-GCB) were accrued, with a median age (range) of 67 y (30-85) and a median of 3 (1-8) prior therapies; 1 pt had prior autologous transplant. The most common Gr 3/4 adverse events (AEs) were neutropenia (15%) and anemia (11%). Gr 5 AEs were respiratory failure (n=3), sepsis, septic shock and abdominal abscess (n=1 each). All Gr atrial fibrillation was 5% (n=3), and major hemorrhage (≥ Gr 3) was 11% (4 gastrointestinal, 1 pulmonary, 1 epistaxis, 1 hematuria). Gr 3/4 immune-mediated events were elevated alanine aminotransferase (n=4), pneumonitis (n=2) and colitis (n=1). The ORR was 26% (Table) and was similar in GCB (27%) and non-GCB (26%) tumors. The median time on study was 5.2 mo (0.4-30.4+). Acalabrutinib/Pem discontinuations were due to PD (62%/56%) and AEs (15%/26%). As of June 2018, 10 pts remain on study; 6 on active therapy and 7 without PD. Conclusions: Acalabrutinib + Pem was well tolerated, with meaningful activity and some exceptional responders (>24 mo) in these R/R DLBCL pts. Randomized trials of the combination vs single agent are needed. Clinical trial information: NCT02362035. [Table: see text]

8522 Background: CC-223 is an ATP-competitive inhibitor of the mTOR kinase, including both TORC1 and TORC2 complexes. CC-223 was selected to address resistance of rapamycin analogues mediated by TORC2 activation. Methods: Following establishment of the MTD (reported at ASCO 2012), subjects with advanced DLBCL, MM and select solid tumors were enrolled in parallel expansion cohorts of up to 20 evaluable subjects. CC-223 was dosed at 45 mg once daily in 28 day cycles until disease progression. Results: As of 09 January, 2013, 35 subjects were enrolled including DLBCL (21) and MM (14). Results in solid tumor cohorts are reported separately. The most common (> 20%) related adverse events (all grades) were fatigue, hyperglycemia, rash, anorexia, nausea, vomiting and diarrhea. In addition, related serious adverse events included infection (2), pneumonitis (1), renal insufficiency (2), pancreatitis (1) and thrombocytopenia (1). CC-223 dose reduction was required in 9 subjects (27%), usually during cycle 1 or 2, and 4 additional subjects with DLBCL dropped out during cycle 1 due to toxicity. Systemic exposure was similar between the two tumor cohorts and was associated with inhibition of TORC1 (p4EBP1) and TORC2 (pAKT) biomarkers in blood cells. Reduction in glucose uptake (32 – 98% decrease) on PET imaging at day 15 was observed in 7/7 DLBCL subjects with results currently available. Three of 17 evaluable subjects with DLBCL had partial responses (PR) after 2 cycles; two with rapid and near complete regression (> 90%) of target lesions by CT and PET with PR confirmed and treatment ongoing at 6 and 8 cycles. Both had failed multiple prior treatment regimens (5 and 3, respectively), including autologous stem cell transplant (ASCT). No responses were observed in 10/14 evaluable subjects with MM although 2 subjects have prolonged stable disease (SD) with treatment ongoing at 12 and 14 cycles. Conclusions: Encouraging signals of biomarker and clinical activity were observed in DLBCL, including two near complete responses, which are ongoing. Due to dose reductions and interruptions, a starting dose of 30 mg QD is recommended for future studies. Clinical trial information: NCT01177397.

7545 Background: Interpretation of lung cancer clinical trials is complicated by the heterogeneity of the patient population due to disease burden and comorbidities making pre-trial assessment of OS probability challenging. Methods: To create and validate a scoring system to estimate OS and improve the quality of future trials, this study evaluated the pretreatment prognostic factors of 2,442 pts with NSCLC. Univariate (UV) and multivariate (MV) Cox models were used to evaluate the prognostic importance of each baseline factor on OS. Those prognostic factors significant on both UV and MV analyses that were used to develop the scoring system included overall quality of life, age, sex, stage, ECOG performance status, the presence of other cancers, and smoking cessation. The score for each factor was determined by dividing the 5-year OS rate (in %) by 10 and summing these scores to form a total score. Multivariate models and the score for each factor were validated using bootstrapping with 1000 iterations from the original samples. Results: The score for each factor ranged from 1 to 7 points and the total scores ranged between 23 and 39 points. Higher scores reflected better OS. Categorization of the score was delineated first by clinician expert opinion (see Table) and then by multiple statistically defined empirical cut points. All categorization schemes demonstrated successful prognostic power. The bootstrap method confirmed the reliability of multivariate Cox model and score (Spearman correlation coefficient= 0.45). Conclusions: Prognostic factors significantly associated with OS on both UV and MV analysis were used to construct a valid scoring system which can be used to predict survival of NSCLC pts. This scoring system can be used by clinicians in counseling pts and for stratification in future trial design. [Table: see text]

7501 Background: The first objective of RTOG 0617 was to compare the overall survival(OS) of patients(pts) treated with standard-dose(SD)(60Gy) versus high-dose(HD)(74Gy) radiotherapy with concurrent chemotherapy(CT). Methods: This Phase III Intergroup trial randomized 464 pts with Stage III NSCLC to the SD(60Gy) vs. HD(74Gy) arms prior to closure of the HD arm. Concurrent CT included weekly paclitaxel(45 mg/m2) and carboplatin(AUC=2). Pts randomized to cetuximab received a 400 mg/m2 loading dose on Day 1 followed by weekly doses of 250 mg/m2. All pts were to receive consolidation CT. We are reporting the final results on radiation dose. Results: 464 pts were accrued prior to closure of the HD arm in 6/11, of which 419 were eligible for analysis. Median follow up was 17.2 months. There were 2 and 10 grade 5 treatment-related adverse events(AEs) on the SD and HD arms, respectively. Grade 3+AEs were 74.2% and 78.2% on SD and HD arms, respectively (p=0.34). The median survival times and 18-month OS rates for the SD and HD arms were 28.7 vs 19.5 months, and 66.9% vs 53.9% respectively (p=0.0007). The primary cause of death was lung cancer (72.2% vs 73.5%)(p=0.84). Local failure rates at 18 months were 25.1% vs 34.3% for SD and HD patients, respectively(p=0.03). Local-regional and distant failures at 18 months were 35.3% vs 44%(p=0.04) and 42.4% vs 47.8%(p=0.16) for SD and HD arms, respectively. Factors predictive of less favorable OS on multivariate analysis were higher radiation dose, higher esophagitis/dysphagia grade, greater gross tumor volume, and heart volume >5 Gy. Conclusions: In this setting of chemoradiation for locally-advanced Stage III NSCLC, 60 Gy is superior to 74 Gy in terms of OS and local-regional control. The effect of the anti-EGFR antibody (cetuximab) awaits further follow up.

4032 Background: PNET has long had few effective therapies other than chemotherapy. Placebo-controlled phase III trials of the mTOR inhibitor everolimus and the VEGF/PDGF receptor inhibitor sunitinib noted improved progression-free survival (PFS). However, objective response rates (RR) with these agents are still <10%. Preclinical studies suggest enhanced anti-tumor effects with combined mTOR and VEGF targeted therapy. Methods: We conducted a phase II trial of the mTOR inhibitor TEM (25 mg IV q week) and the VEGF-A monoclonal antibody BEV (10 mg/kg IV q 2 weeks) in patients (pts) with well or moderately differentiated PNET and progressive disease by RECIST within 7 months of study entry. Co primary endpoints were RR and 6-month PFS. Planned enrollment was 50 patients, with interim analysis for futility after the first 25 evaluable pts. Pts had no prior mTOR or VEGF targeted agents, ECOG PS 0-1, and adequate hematologic and organ function. Continued octreotide was allowed, but not required. Prior interferon, embolization, and ≤ 2 chemotherapy regimens were allowed. Results: 55 pts were eligible for response assessment. Confirmed PR was documented in 20 of 55 patients (37%). 44 of 55 (80%) patients were progression-free at 6 months. Of 49 pts evaluable for this endpoint, 12 month PFS is 49%. 15 patients remain on therapy. For evaluable patients, the most common grade 3-4 adverse events attributed to therapy were hypertension (18%), hyperglycemia (13%), fatigue (11%). leukopenia (9%), headache (9%), proteinuria (7%), and hypokalemia (7%). Conclusions: The combination of TEM/BEV has substantial activity in a multi-center phase II trial with RR of 37%, well in excess of single targeted agents in PNET. 6-month PFS was a notable 80% in a population of patients with RECIST criteria progression within 7 months of study entry. Phase III trials of combined VEGF/mTOR inhibition in PNET should be pursued. Clinical trial information: NCT01010126.
