15553 Background: 17-Allylamino-17-Demethoxygeldanamycin (17-AAG) is a benzoquinone ansamycin antibiotic with anti- proliferative activity in several mouse xenograft models including prostate cancer models. Serum IL-6, IL-8, and maspin are potentially important markers of prostate cancer biology. Methods: Patients (pts) with metastatic, hormone-refractory prostate cancer progressing on at least one prior systemic therapy with rising PSA were eligible. All pts received 17-AAG at a dose of 300 mg/m2 IV weekly for three out of four weeks. Primary objective was to assess the PSA response (50% decrease in PSA). Secondary objectives included Adverse Events (AEs) and correlative serum markers including IL-6, IL-8 and maspin levels. A Simon two-stage design required a total of 25 pts with early termination if < 2 responses occurred among the 1st 16 eligible patients. Results: Seventeen pts were enrolled of which 15 were deemed eligible. Median age was 68 and median PSA was 252 ng/mL. Pts received 17-AAG for a median number of 2 cycles. No pt had a PSA response. No grade 4/5 AEs occurred. Grade 3 AEs included fatigue (4 pts), lymphopenia (2 pts) and back pain (2 pts). The median PSA progression free survival was 1.8 months (95% CI: 1.3–3.4 months). The six-month overall survival was 61% (95% CI: 37%-100%). Due to the lack of PSA response, accrual was stopped per study design. At day 15, the median IL-6 and IL-8 increase from baseline was 0.4 pg/ml (p=0.57) and 3 pg/ml (p=0.73), respectively. Maspin levels had day 15 increase of 6-fold (p=0.44). At treatment failure (TF), the median IL-6 increase from baseline was 4.47 pg/ml (p=0.03) and IL-8 decrease was 1.8 pg/ml (p=0.31). Maspin levels had a 29-fold increase at TF (p=0.09). Conclusions: 17-AAG did not show any activity with regards to PSA response. Serum IL-6 was significantly increased at the time of TF. Further evaluation of 17-AAG at a dose of 300 mg/m2 IV weekly in this patient population is not warranted. No significant financial relationships to disclose.

696 Background: A number of treatments for metastatic renal cell carcinoma (RCC) have been FDA approved since December, 2005. Trials evaluating these agents excluded non-clear cell histologies and therefore the efficacy of these treatments remains unclear in patients (pts) with metastatic non-clear cell RCC (mncRCC). Methods: This is a single arm Phase II study designed to determine the efficacy of pazopanib in mncRCC. Treatment was pazopanib 800 mg by mouth daily until progression or intolerability of treatment. Dose reductions were allowed for toxicity with dose level -1 being 600 mg daily and dose level -2, 400 mg daily. Cycles were every 28 days. Main eligibility criteria included: (1) age ³ 18 years old; (2) histologic confirmation of ncRCC; (3) ECOG Performance Status (PS) 0, 1, or 2; (4) up to one prior treatment for mncRCC (5) measurable or non-measurable metastatic disease per RECIST criteria. The primary endpoint was overall survival rate at 12 months. Secondary endpoints were best tumor response rates after two cycles, PFS, OS and toxicity. Results: 38 pts were enrolled between May 16, 2013 and February 1, 2018. 35 pts were evaluable for primary endpoint. Median age 63 years old and 22/35 (62.9%) were male. Most common histology was papillary RCC, 14/35 (40%), and most common number of metastatic sites was 1. 29/35 (82.9%) had prior nephrectomy and 30/35 (85.7%) had no prior systemic therapy. Median number of cycles was 5. 12-month OS was 65.7% (90% CI, 50.5-78.9%). Best response in first 2 cycles: PR 11%, SD 60%, PD 9%, not evaluated 20%. Median PFS was 7.5 months (90% CI, 5.0-11.0); median OS 18.9 months (90% CI, 13.0-NE). Grade 3 / 4 AEs seen in 25 pts with hypertension, transaminitis and abdominal pain being most common (seen in >10%). Conclusions: There are limited data about the efficacy of available therapies for mncRCC. This study shows that pazopanib has similar efficacy compared to historical data in clinical trials using other TKIs in mncRCC. The safety profile of pazopanib in pts with mncRCC was found to be similar to that found in prior clinical trials studying pazopanib. Our findings warrant further investigation into the utility of pazopanib in metastatic ncRCC. Clinical trial information: NCT01767636.

176 Background: Multiple tumour tissue studies have demonstrated the prognostic utility of CNVs in mCRPC. However, accurate assessment of CNVs in plasma cfDNA remains challenging, and prognostic significance has not been well characterized. Using a large customized panel, we correlated plasma CNVs with clinical outcomes in a contemporary cohort of mCRPC patients. Methods: Deep targeted sequencing was performed using a 180-gene cfDNA panel (Predicine) in 56 patients commencing AR pathway inhibitors (enzalutamide or abiraterone; n = 34) or taxane chemotherapy (n = 22) at two Australian institutions. Kaplan-Meier estimates and Cox proportional-hazards models were used to correlate CNVs with progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS). Significant results were validated in an independent cohort (Mayo Clinic, n = 144). Results: Median follow-up was 19.4 months (mo; IQR 11.3-31.9). The most common CNVs in the Australian cohort are shown (Table). OS was significantly decreased in patients with PI3KCA gain (median 21.7 mo vs 6.6 mo, p < 0.0001), PTEN loss (24.8 mo vs 11.7 mo, p = 0.0019) and AR gain (21.7 mo vs 12.0 mo, p = 0.0083). Furthermore, all three alterations independently predicted for poor survival in multivariable analyses (MVA; Table). Findings in the independent cohort showed similar OS results in MVA: PIK3CA gain (HR 2.0, p = 0.07), PTEN loss (HR 1.7, p = 0.08) and AR gain (HR 1.7, p = 0.03). Conclusions: Sequencing of plasma cfDNA revealed that PTEN loss, and PIK3CA and AR gain are associated with inferior clinical outcomes in patients commencing contemporary systemic treatment. These data support therapeutic strategies co-targeting the PI3K and AR pathways in mCRPC.[Table: see text]

160 Background: mCRPC is a heterogeneous disease state with variable survival and molecular markers that define survival continue to be determined. We applied a 120 gene panel based targeted next-gen sequencing (NGS) approach to probe plasma ctDNA based outcomes for survival. Methods: mCRPC chemo-naive patients (pts) were enrolled in a prospective study and plasma cell free DNA (cfDNA) extracted. ctDNA fractions estimated based on somatic variants. NGS of plasma cfDNA was performed using HiSeq X Ten on a panel of 120 genes (PredicineLDT). Clinical and molecular prognostic factors were determined for overall survival (OS). Cox proportional hazard regression was used to estimate hazard ratios (HR) at the univariate level and only significant associations included in multivariate analysis (significance at P<0.05). Results: 96 mCRPC pts were enrolled. 17/96 pts failed NGS QC. Median cfDNA, ctDNA yields for 79/96 pts are provided in Table. Median follow up for study cohort was 92.5 months (mon) (Range:62.3-109.6); median survival time was 25.9 mon (95% CI:19.9, 31.4) and 72/79 pts had died. TMPRSS2-ERG fusion was detected in 18/79 pts. Significant alterations associated with OS are listed in Table. 49/59 pts underwent subsequent docetaxel chemo. In chemo treated pts significant copy number alterations predictive of survival included AR amplification (p=0.01, HR=2.0, 95% CI[1.2, 3.5], RB1 loss (p=3.20E-06, HR=5.0, 95% CI[2.4, 10.6], PTEN(p=0.009, HR=2.6, 95% CI[1.2, 5.4]), CDH1(p=0.001, HR=4.3, 95% CI[1.6, 11.4]). Conclusions: ctDNA yield in mCRPC state was the most significant prognostic factor for survival, Several specific plasma genomic perturbations were observed topredict docetaxel efficacy and need further evaluation.[Table: see text]

Background: HIT has the potential to improve the health of individuals and the performance of providers, yielding improved quality, cost savings, and greater engagement by patients. Minorities face a variety of financial and nonfinancial barriers to obtaining appropriate and timely health care. Studying the behavior of minority patients will help understand the specific challenges to HIT adoption and engagement in patients and their caregivers. We undertook a patient-reported survey to explore these factors and understand any underlying disparities. Methods: A 21-question paper-based anonymous questionnaire addressing the responder's attitudes, understanding and needs of the electronic medical record (EMR) was used. This was administered to adult patients with lymphoid malignancies and their caregivers at two campuses of Mayo Clinic in Florida (San Pablo and inner-city; Riverside). Categorical and continuous variables between white and minority responders as well as minority responders from the two campuses were compared using the Chi-square test and U Mann Whitney with a significance level of 0.05. Results: The survey was completed by 1004 patients and caregivers. Average time taken to complete the survey was approximately 11 minutes. Of the responders, 716 (71%) were whites and 271 (27%) were minorities, with race-ethnicity not reported by 17 (2%). Among minorities, 30% (n=80) were seen at San Pablo and 64% (n=173) at the Riverside campus, with 6% at a multiple myeloma patient-caregiver symposium. Whites were older (median age 66 vs. 62 years, p&lt;0.001) and had higher education (undergraduate or higher 60% vs. 52%, p=0.023) as compared to minorities. Minority survey responders had lesser access to a computer (84% vs. 92%, p&lt;0.001) or a smartphone (85% vs. 89%, p=0.08). (Figure 1a) Exploring HIT awareness showed that only 51% of minorities were registered to use the EMR as compared to 72% whites (p&lt;0.001) and a lesser number of minorities even knew that they could access their medical records electronically (81% vs. 92%, p&lt;0.001). even among those registered to use the EMR, 13% minorities reported never using the EMR as compared to 4% whites (p&lt;0.001). Encouragingly, a higher willingness to learn about and use the EMR was noted among minorities who were more interested in knowing how to access the EMR (43% vs. 36%, p=0.04), would increase the use of EMR if someone explained how to use it (17% vs. 10%, p=0.002), and if someone explained about test results (14% vs. 6%, p&lt;0.001). (Figure 1b) Comparing minorities among the two campuses, those from the San Pablo campus were older (67.5 yrs. vs. 57 yrs., P&lt;0.001), had higher level of education (undergraduate or higher in 66% vs. 47%, p=0.005) and a higher number had access to a computer (94% vs. 78%, P=0.001) as compared to those from the inner-city Riverside. (Figure 2a) Minorities from the Riverside campus were less likely to be aware of the current HIT EMR (75% vs. 93%, p&lt;0.001), were significantly less likely to have registered for the patient EMR portal (38% vs. 76%, p&lt;0.001) and never used the EMR even if registered for it (22% vs. 7%, p=0.01) as against those from the San Pablo campus. Minorities at the Riverside campus had a higher interest in knowing how to access the EMR (47% vs. 33%, p=0.03). Linguistic barriers were more striking in the inner-city Riverside campus where a higher proportion of minority survey responders noted that it would help if the EMR was in their primary language (66% vs. 48%, p=0.006). (Figure 2b) Conclusions: Minorities continue to struggle with suboptimal utilization of healthcare system including that of HIT. There are barriers related to access, awareness, language and understanding of HIT that prevent the integration and participation of racial-ethnic minorities in the healthcare system to a full extent. It is important to qualify the minorities better, since there exist HIT utilization disparities even within the minorities from different areas representing socioeconomic and demographic differences. Efforts need to be made at several levels to help the minorities overcome educational, access and linguistic barriers so that they can benefit from advancements in the healthcare system.

Abstract Background: CLL is the most common leukemia diagnosis in adults and its treatment has undergone significant change from chemotherapy, to immunotherapy and now targeted kinase inhibitors, leading to improved overall survival (OS). With improving survivorship, SPMs can occur but an in-depth analysis of risks and trends of SPMs in CLL survivors is lacking. We performed a population-based analysis to evaluate this. Methods: Patients in the Surveillance, Epidemiology and End Results (SEER) database diagnosed with CLL between 1973-2015 were included. Due to variation in management techniques over time, the cohort was divided in four time periods: 1973-1982, 1983-1992, 1993-2002 and 2003-2015. We evaluated differences in risk for SPMs among CLL survivors compared to risk of individual malignancies expected in the general population during these time periods and studied the effect of demographics and time since CLL diagnosis. Results: Over a nearly 270,000 person-year follow up, 6,467 new SPMs were diagnosed with a standardized incidence ratio (SIR) of 1.2 (95% CI 1.17-1.23), which resulted in a 39 excess cancers per 10,000 population. The CLL survivors had a 20% overall increased risk of developing SPMs (excluding non-squamous skin cancer) compared to the general population. The risks for both solid (SIR 1.15 CI 95% 1.12-1.18) and hematological malignancies (SIR 1.61 95% CI 1.5-1.73) was higher than the expected in the general population. However, the risk for individual cancers was heterogeneous. The tumors associated with the highest risk were Hodgkin lymphoma (almost 8 times higher), Kaposi Sarcoma (4 times), non-epithelial skin cancers (4 times), salivary gland cancer (3 times) and acute lymphocytic leukemia (3 times). In contrast, tumors in the hepatobiliary system, female breast and female genital system were associated with a lower risk than the general population. The highest SIR across the study periods was observed in the younger population (ages 15-49). Although the risk increased in all ethnicities, it was statistically significant only in Caucasians. There was no gender-wise difference in SIR during any of the four time periods. A statistically significant increase in SIR was observed for both men and women from 1973-1982 to 2003-2015. This was mostly due to an increase in risk of hematological malignancies from 1.08 early in the study to 2.56 in the most recent study period. The SIR in solid tumors did not change significantly over time; in absolute terms, however, lung carcinoma contributed the most to the excess risk, followed by non-epithelial skin cancers and non-Hodgkin's lymphoma. The risk of developing a SPM was higher for the CLL survivors during most of the latency periods, but it was statistically significant during the 2-5 months and 12-59 months after diagnosis. A multivariate analysis was conducted to evaluate the impact of period of diagnosis on the development of SPMs among these patients. After adjusting for gender, ethnicity, radiation therapy, chemotherapy, and age at diagnosis of CLL, patients diagnosed with CLL in the most recent time period were at 45% higher risk of developing SPMs as compared to the patient diagnosed during 1973-1982 (Hazard ratio(HR) =1.45 95%CI:1.34-1.6, p<0.001). Moreover increased HRs were also observed for 1983-1992 and 1993-2002 time periods (Fig. 1) Conclusions: With improving therapeutics for cancer treatment, survivorship is improving as well and the risk of SPMs needs to be better understood and addressed. This is truer for CLL, where majority of patients have a favorable survival. The risk of SPMs was 20% higher in CLL survivors than in the general population and was most prominent in the survivors aged 15-49 years at the time of CLL diagnosis. The risk of individual malignancies may be heterogenous but there has been an increase in risk of SPMs over time, mainly due to an increase of secondary hematological malignancies in recent years. Active survivorship plans and long-term surveillance for SPMs is crucial for improved outcomes of patients with a history of CLL.

Abstract Background and Aims: Progastrin is a tumor promoting peptide which is detectable in the blood of patients with different cancers. Progastrin gene is a direct target of the WNT/ß-catenin oncogenic pathway involved in tumorigenesis and possibly tumor progression/ treatment efficacy. Since WNT/ß-catenin oncogenic pathway is dysregulated in advanced prostate cancer we evaluated plasma progastrin in metastatic prostate cancer as a predictive and prognostic biomarker. Methods: Metastatic hormone sensitive prostate cancer (mHSPC) and metastatic castration resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) states were enrolled in a cohort study of blood sample collection and follow-up for outcomes between 9/2009 and 11/2013. Patients were enrolled in mHSPC unique sub-cohorts before initiating androgen deprivation therapy (ADT); during ADT; at the time of failure of ADT and before starting chemotherapy. Plasma progastrin was measured using the ELISA cancerREAD®. Progastrin concentrations in the cancer patients (test set) was assessed against 213 samples from asymptomatic volunteers from the French blood establishment (control set) and prograstin levels were also compared for each of the above four mHSPC and mCRPC cohorts as well as for association with time to failure on AA for the mHSPC cohort and overall survival for both mHSPC and mCRPC subcohorts. We also determined progastrin levels in patients with two serial samples to evaluate if changes were predictive for overall survival. Results: Of the 523 mHSPC+mCRPC patients 96 were in mHSPC state enrolled before starting ADT; 101 mHSPC patients were enrolled while receiving ADT; 143 mHSPC patients were enrolled at the time of ADT failure and 143 were clinically progressive mCRPC. All cohorts were unique and 246/523 patients had two serial samples collected and analyzed across all subcohorts. The median time of follow up of the whole cohort was 8.34 years (IQR: 4.53-12.97) and 371/523 had died at the time of the analysis. Plasma progastrin levels was detected in 87.6% of all the patients (cut-off value 1 pM, range 0 to 311 pM, median value of 4.7 pM) compared to the control set (median value=0.61 pM; IQR 0.00-1.58). The Receiver Operating Characteristic analysis indicated an area under the curve of 0.84 (p&lt;0.0001; 95% CI 0.81 to 0.87). Of these, 106 patients had a decrease and 140 patients an increase of progastrin levels. Patients with a serial increase of progastrin had a worst overall survival compare to the other group (p=0.019). Conclusion: Progastrin is a blood based biomarker elevated in advanced prostate cancer patients serial increases in progastrin levels during treatment are predictive of poor survival. Progastrin assay might be useful for monitoring therapeutic interventions like androgen deprivation therapy effects as well for advanced prostate cancer patients.

Abstract Background and Aims: Progastrin is a tumor promoting peptide which is detectable in the blood of patients with different cancers (Prieur et al. AACR 2017, Prieur et al. ASCO 2017). Progastrin gene is a direct target of the WNT/ß-catenin oncogenic pathway involved in tumorigenesis of many organs, but it is unknown if it has any prognostic significance in metastatic renal cell cancer (mRCC) patients. We evaluated progastrin as a prognosis marker along with known markers of prognosis in mRCCC. Methods: 145 patients with mRCCC were enrolled in this study and blood samples were drawn after consent. Progastrin was measured using the ELISA cancerREAD®. Progastrin concentrations in the 145 mRCCC patients (test set) was assessed against 213 samples from asymptomatic volunteers from the French blood establishment (control set). The prognostic impact of progastrin levels was determined with overall survival (OS) using Cox proportional hazards and also compared to MSKCC based clinical prognosis (good;intermediate; poor). Statistical significance was considered at P≤0.05. Results: The median follow-up of the cohort was 5.45 years (IQR: 1.87-9.95) and at the time of analysis 98/145 patients had died from disease progression. Plasma progastrin was detected in 95% of the patients (cut-off value 1 pM, range 0 to 272 pM, median value of 7.2 pM; IQR 3.20-19.71) compared to the control set (median value=0.61 pM; IQR 0.00-1.58). The Receiver Operating Characteristic analysis indicated an area under the curve of 0.92 (p&lt;0.0001; 95% CI 0.89 to 0.94). At the univariate level, MSKCC scores (good; intermediate; poor categories) in this cohort was associated with OS and was prognostic (p&lt;0.0001). We detected progastrin levels were higher with MSKCC score poor prognostic (p&lt;0.0002) (median 30.39 pM; IQR 9.31-57.20). Elevated progastrin was also independently associated with poor survival (p&lt;0.0001) and a multivariate model of MSKCC taken with progastrin levels remained significantly associated with poor survival (p&lt;0.0001). Conclusion: Elevated progastrin levels in mRCCC is correlated with poor survival and further refines clinically used MSKCC prognostic scores. Progastrin assay is a simple and inexpensive blood test that might define subsets of mRCCC patients with poor survival who need to be identified for aggressive treatments.

e16559 Background: ARVs that develop early during treatment with abiraterone acetate/ prednisone (AA/P) may play a role in treatment resistance. We evaluated metastatic site and whole blood mRNA expression of full-length AR (AR-FL) and ARVs to characterize treatment-emergent ARVs (TE-ARVs) from men with mCRPC pre- and post- 12 weeks of AA/P collected in a prospective clinical trial (NCT#01953640). Methods: RNAseq performed on paired metastatic site biopsy (n = 40) and whole blood (n = 25) passed quality control. Reads were aligned to the GRCh38 reference genome with the spliced-alignment TopHat2 package. AR-FL or ARVs were detected if ≥ 2 splice reads aligned to unique splice junctions for AR-FL, AR-8, AR-45, AR-23, AR-V3, AR-V5V6, AR-V7, AR-V8, AR-V9, AR-V10, AR-V12, AR-V13, and AR-V14, and normalized to splice reads per million (SRPM). Cox proportional hazard regression analysis was performed on AR-FL and AR-Vs with ≥1 SRPM for association with time to treatment change (TTTC). Results: In metastatic site biopsies post-AA/P, the average number of splice reads was 27,376,541 (range 7,753,998 to 62,456,773). The median number of ARVs detected was 2 (range 0-8), with a total of total of 110 ARVs identified (Table). Dynamic shifts in ARV profiles were observed post-AAP, with 41 TE-ARVs identified in 17 unique patients. The most common TE-ARV was AR-8 (n = 8), followed by AR-45 (n = 5), AR-23 (n = 5), and AR-V7 (n = 4). The presence of AR-V7 post-AAP was adversely associated with TTTC (hazard ratio 2.46, p = 0.013). The identification of early TE- ARV was not associated with TTTC. In whole blood samples, post-AA/P detection of AR-FL was low (n = 3) and no ARVs were detected. Conclusions: No specific patterns were observed in ARV profiles obtained in the metastatic biopsies after 12 weeks of treatment with AA/P. Clinical trial information: 01953640. [Table: see text]

5063 Background: The systemic therapies available to patients with metastatic prostate cancer (mPC) have improved dramatically over the past decade. Prior to 2010, the only agents with a proven survival benefit for patients with metastatic disease were androgen deprivation therapy and docetaxel. Since then, five new agents have been FDA approved and have proven survival benefit in phase III trials. Anecdotal experience suggests that the increased available lines of therapy have changed the profile of mPC to include a higher prevalence of visceral metastases. Methods: A retrospective review of 474 patients with prostate cancer who died in 2009 and in 2016 was performed. Patients with metastatic disease who had imaging within 6 months of death were included. A total of 164 patients were eligible for analysis. Results: Mean age at death overall was 77.4 years (SD 9.5) and did not differ signifiantly by cohort. Overall rates of visceral and distant metastases to include lung, liver, adrenal, brain, renal, spleen, and thyroid, were higher in patients who died in 2016 as compared to those who died in 2009 (40.0% and 26.1%, respectively, p = 0.07). Lung metastases were more prevalent in patients who died in 2016 versus in 2009 at 26.3% and 13.0%, respectively (p = 0.05). Patients who died in 2009 received a median of 3 (range 1-10) systemic treatments versus 4 (range 0-13) in those who died in 2016 (p = 0.005). Forty-four percent of patients who died in 2016 used five or more lines of systemic treatments compared to 26.1% of patients in 2009. Conclusions: The emergence of new systemic therapies for mPC is changing the natural history of the disease. Forty percent of patients now develop visceral metastases compared to 26% in the past. These changes will drive the need for new treatment approaches targeting visceral metastases. [Table: see text]
