4500 Background: Trastuzumab is a monoclonal antibody against human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2). The primary objective of RTOG 1010 was to determine if trastuzumab increases disease-free survival (DFS) when combined with trimodality treatment for patients with HER2 overexpressing esophageal adenocarcinoma. Methods: This open label, randomized phase III trial included patients with newly diagnosed stage T1N1-2, T2-3N0-2 adenocarcinoma of the esophagus involving the mid, distal, or esophagogastric junction and up to 5cm of the stomach. All patients received chemotherapy (C) of paclitaxel, 50mg/m2 and carboplatin AUC = 2, weekly for 6 weeks, with radiation (XRT: 3D-CRT or IMRT, 50.4 Gy in 28 fractions) followed by surgery. Patients were randomized 1:1 to receive weekly trastuzumab 4mg/kg week 1 then 2mg/kg/weekly x 5 during CXRT then 6 mg/kg for 1 dose prior to surgery and 6mg/kg every 3 weeks for 13 treatments after surgery. HER2 status was determined by IHC and gene amplification by FISH. With a 2-sided alpha of 0.05, 162 DFS events provide 90% power to detect a signal for an increase in median DFS from 15 to 25 months. DFS and overall survival (OS) were estimated by the Kaplan-Meier method. and arms were compared using the log rank test. The Cox proportional hazards model was used to analyze treatment effect. Results: 571 patients were entered for assessment of HER2 expression, 203 HER2+ patients randomized. The median follow-up for alive patients is 5.0 years. The estimated 2, 3, and 4-year DFS (95% CI) for the CXRT +trastuzumab arm were 41.8% (31.8%, 51.7%), 34.3% (24.7%, 43.9%), and 33.1% (23.6%, 42.7%), respectively, and for the CXRT arm were 40.0% (30.0%, 49.9%), 33.4% (23.8%, 43.0%), and 30.1% (20.7%, 39.4%), respectively; log-rank p = 0.85. The median DFS time is 19.6 months (13.5-26.2) for the CXRT +trastuzumab arm compared to 14.2 months (10.5-23.0) for the CXRT arm. The hazard ratio (95% CI) comparing the DFS of CXRT+trastuzumab arm to the CXRT arm was 0.97 (0.69, 1.36). The median OS time was 38.5 months (26.2-70.4) for the CXRT+trastuzumab arm compared to 38.9 months (29.0-64.5) for the CXRT arm, hazard ratio (95% CI): 1.01 (0.69, 1.47). There was no statistically significant increase in treatment-related toxicities with the addition of trastuzumab including no increase in cardiac events. Conclusions: The addition of trastuzumab to trimodality treatment did not improve DFS for patients with HER2 overexpressing esophageal adenocarcinoma.

Abstract BACKGROUND: SGN-40 is a humanized monoclonal antibody that targets CD40. Upon binding to CD40, SGN-40 triggers pro-apoptotic signal transduction pathways and mediates effector cell functions (ADCC and ADCP). SGN-40 demonstrated preliminary anti-tumor activity in a phase 1 study of non-Hodgkin lymphoma, including diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) patients (ASH 2006, Abstract 695). METHODS: We conducted a multicenter, phase 2, open-label study to determine the overall response rate and toxicity profile of SGN-40 in patients with relapsed DLBCL. Tumor samples were assessed by a central lab for pathology confirmation and CD40 expression. Eligible patients had de novo or transformed DLBCL at diagnosis and were excluded if previously treated for indolent lymphoma. Required prior therapy consisted of combination chemotherapy with rituximab and, if eligible, autologous stem cell transplantation. Patients received 6 intravenous infusions of SGN-40 over 5 weeks (Cycle 1) with intra-patient dose loading (1 mg/kg on Day 1; 2 mg/kg on Day 4; 4 mg/kg on Day 8) and 8 mg/kg/wk thereafter. Responding patients and those with stable disease were eligible to continue therapy until disease progression or a maximum of 12 cycles. RESULTS: Forty-six patients (28 M, 18 F), with a median age of 72 years (range 17–85), were enrolled at 10 centers in the US. Patients were heavily pre-treated, with a median of 4 prior systemic chemotherapy regimens (range 1–10). Immunohistochemistry analysis of patient tumor samples demonstrated high expression of CD40 in all patients with the exception of 1 patient who was negative. Thirty-eight of the 46 patients met predefined criteria for evaluation (completed dose loading and had no major protocol violations). Best responses seen were CR (n=2, 5%) and PR (n=2, 5%), yielding an ORR of 10%. Furthermore, 9 (24%) patients had SD as best response. Reductions in tumor size were seen in approximately one-third of patients. Twenty (53%) patients had PD and 5 (13%) patients have yet to be assessed. Treatment with SGN-40 was generally well tolerated. Grade 3/4 events that occurred in more than 1 patient in the intent-to-treat population (N=46), regardless of drug attribution were thrombocytopenia (n=5); neutropenia (n=4); and anemia, fatigue, pneumonia, hyponatremia, DVT, and disease progression (n=2 pts each). Of these events, only fatigue (n=2) and neutropenia (n=2) were considered drug related by the investigator. CONCLUSION: Monotherapy with SGN-40 in DLBCL patients is well tolerated and resulted in objective responses consistent with the previous phase 1 experience. These data support further evaluation of SGN-40 in combination with chemotherapy in non-Hodgkin lymphoma; 3 combination clinical trials are ongoing. Retrospective correlation of clinical outcome and a gene signature that includes baseline CD40 activation status are planned.

Abstract Twenty-eight patients with relapsed or refractory CD20+ NHL have been enrolled in an ongoing phase I trial of dose-escalated 90YZ followed by high-dose BEAM and autotransplant in which the 90YZ dose is patient-specific based on dosimetry. 90YZ doses are calculated to deliver cohort-defined radiation doses (100, 300, 500, ... cGy) to critical organs (liver, lung or kidney), with 3–6 patients per group. On D -22, rituximab (R) 250 mg/m2 is infused followed by the imaging dose of 111In Zevalin® (5 mCi). Imaging is performed immediately post-injection and at 4, 24, 72, and 144 hours; dosimetry is performed on D -15. On D -14, R 250 mg/m2 is administered followed immediately by 90YZ at the dose calculated to deliver the cohort-prescribed absorbed radiation dose to the critical organ. On D -6 through -1, patients receive high-dose BEAM. On D0, a minimum of 2.0 X 106 CD34+ cells/kg is infused and G-CSF 5 μg/kg SQ daily begun. The median age was 54 (range: 25–72) years. NHL histologic subtypes were as follows: mantle cell 5, diffuse aggressive 13, low grade 5, and transformed 5. Most had received 3 or more treatment regimens, including R. The toxicity profile was similar to that associated with high-dose BEAM and included a decrease in DLCO for most patients with one patient at the 500 cGy dose level experiencing a transient decline to below 50% of the predicted value corrected for hemoglobin. The most common grade III/IV toxicities were infection, fever, stomatitis, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, hemorrhage, and edema. One patient experienced transient veno-occlusive disease at the 700 cGy dose level. Engraftment occurred at a median of 10 days (range:8–18) to granulocytes ≥ 500/μL, and 21 days (range:13–40days) to platelets ≥20,000/μL . With a median follow-up of one year, the 3 year overall and progression-free survivals are 60% and 50%, respectively. Figure Figure 90-Y Zevalin Dosing by Cohort (median; range) Cohort (cGy) Total Dose (mCi) mCi/kg 100 (n=3) 5 (2–14) .06(.05–.12) 300 (n=7) 22(14–57) .25(.18–.63) 500 (n=6) 31(16–48) .40(.14–.63) 700 (n=6) 37(26–55) .38(.27–.73) 900 (n=3) 28(27–37) .32(.27–.44) 1100 (n=3) 48(29–65) .57(.50–.75) The liver was the critical organ in nearly all cases. Patient-specific doses calculated to deliver a cohort-prescribed absorbed radiation dose to the critical organ were highly variable suggesting that dosing based on weight and not dosimetry is likely to result in a wide range of absorbed dose to critical organs. In the context of this study, 90YZ has been administered to eight patients at doses of .5 mCi/kg or greater. We conclude that with careful dosimetry, 90YZ doses higher than the conventional .4 mCi/kg may be safely combined with BEAM and autotransplant. Accrual continues at the 1300 cGy dose level.

4009 Background: An ∼65% 5-year disease-free-survival (DFS) rate from 5-FU/mitomycin/radiation for anal carcinoma needs improvement. Methods: A phase III randomized trial compared 5-FU (1,000mg/m2 days 1–4 and 29–32) plus mitomycin (10mg/m2 days 1 and 29) and radiation (45 to 59 Gy) (Arm A) to 5-FU (1,000mg/m2 days 1–4, 29–32, 57–60 and 85–88) plus cisplatin (75mg/m2 on days 1, 29, 57 and 85) and radiation (45 to 59 Gy; start day=57) (Arm B) in anal carcinoma patients. Stratification included gender, clinical N status and tumor diameter. Primary endpoint was DFS. Statistical power was 80% with two-sided test to detect 10% DFS increase for Arm B. Results: Of 682 patients accrued, 598 were analyzable. Most unanalyzed patients’ data are early. Patient characteristics were balanced. Median age was 55 years, women predominated (69%), 27.5% had >5 cm tumor diameter and 26% had clinically N+ cancer. Preliminary 5-year estimated DFS was 56% for Arm A and 48% for Arm B (p=0.28) and 5-year estimated overall survival was 69% for both arms (p=0.24). Men(p=0.04), clinically N+ cancer (p<0.0001) and tumor diameter >5 cm (p=0.005) independently prognosticated DFS in a multivariate analysis. 5-year colostomy rate was 10% for Arm A and 20% for arm B(p=0.12). Grade 3/4 toxicity rates: non-hematologic=76% for Arm A and 75% for Arm B but hematologic=67% for Arm A and 47% for Arm B(p=0.0004). Conclusions: In Intergroup-98–11, induction 5-FU/cisplatin followed by 5-FU/cisplatin/radiation failed to improve DFS compared to the standard treatment, 5-FU/mitomycin/radiation.

8038 Background: P21 is a downstream effector protein of p53 that induces cell cycle arrest by inhibiting cyclin/cyclin dependent kinase (cdK) complexes. In this prospective correlative study, we investigated the prognostic significance of p21, p53, Bcl-6, and Bcl-2 in diffuse large B cell lymphoma (DLBCL) in the context of E4494, a randomized trial comparing conventional CHOP to rituximab(R)-CHOP induction, and maintenance R (MR) to observation for responding patients. Methods: Protein expression was quantified by immunohistochemical (IHC) staining of 198 DLBCL paraffin-embedded biopsy specimens and scored by an expert panel of hematopathologists. Results: No differences in the distribution of patient characteristics were detected between p21+ and p21- cases and between p53+ and p53- cases as well as across treatment arms. Among all study patients, there were no differences in clinical outcomes between p21+ and p21- cases. However, when analyzed by induction arm (removing the effect of MR), R-CHOP patients had marginally better FFS (p=0.06) if p21+; among CHOP-treated patients, p21 status had no effect on outcome. For R-CHOP patients but NOT CHOP patients, p21+ was an independent, favorable prognostic factor after adjusting for Bcl-6, IPI and Bcl-2 in multivariate analysis (FFS relative risk 0.3; p=0.003; OS relative risk 0.4; p=0.02). P21+ patients treated with R-CHOP had higher %FFS at 5 years compared to p21+ patients treated with CHOP (61 ± 7% vs. 24 ± 7%; p=0.007) but p21- R-CHOP and CHOP patients had similar FFS (37 ± 7% vs. 35 ± 7%; p=0.64). P53 staining (+ scored as either >20% or 50%) did not predict for FFS or OS in uni- or multivariate analyses. The p53+/p21- phenotype, a possible surrogate for mutated p53, was not prognostic. Further, no significant correlation was seen between p53 and p21 expression by IHC. Conclusions: These data suggest that p21 expression by IHC predicts for favorable outcome in older DLBCL patients treated with R-CHOP but not in those treated with CHOP. Furthermore, p21+ identifies patients who benefit from the addition of rituximab to CHOP. Complex interactions between p53, p21, and Bcl-6, as well as other unknown pathways, may account for this treatment-related effect and should be further investigated. [Table: see text]

TPS586 Background: Chemoradiotherapy(CRT) is a SOC for patients with muscle invasive bladder cancer (MIBC) who refuse or are not fit for radical cystectomy. Radiotherapy and chemotherapy are known to increases the PD-L1 expression in bladder cancer. Based on these observations, we hypothesized that addition of atezolizumab to CRT will increase its efficacy. Methods: This is a randomized phase III trial testing CRT with and without atezolizumab for 6 months in 475 patients with MIBC. Pts will be stratified on performance status (0-1 vs. 2); clinical stage (T2 vs T3/T4a, chemotherapy(cisplatin vs 5FU+mitomycin vs gemcitabine); and radiation field (bladder only vs small pelvis). Patients will undergo biopsy 18 week from registration. If they have residual disease they will be taken off protocol treatment and can proceed with alternative SOC option including radical cystectomy. Patients will be followed for 5 years. The primary end point of the study is bladder intact event –free survival (BIEFS). The event is comprised of: recurrence or residual muscle-invasive bladder cancer at 18 weeks or later, clinical evidence of nodal or metastatic disease, radical cystectomy, or death due to any cause. This composite endpoint is reflective of the intent of bladder preservation strategy with radical cystectomy included as one of the outcomes. Secondary end points include overall survival, modified event free survival, pathologic response at 18 weeks, metastasis free survival, cancer specific survival, rate of salvage cystectomy, rate of adverse event and QOL & PRO end points. The expected 3 year BIEFS for the control arm is 52%. The study leadership concluded that a 12% improvement in this endpoint is meaningful for this patient population. With a sample size of 475 patients the study has 85% power to detect the improvement from 52% to 64% in the BIEFS at 3 years (hazard ratio=0.68). The study team will perform translational studies evaluating tumor tissue, whole blood and urine for molecular and immunologic markers of immune response and response to RT. Successful completion of this trial could lead to a new treatment paradigm for patients with muscle invasive bladder cancer. Clinical trial information: NCT03775265.

Purpose: NRG/RTOG 0848 was designed to determine whether adjuvant radiation with fluoropyrimidine sensitization improved survival following gemcitabine-based adjuvant chemotherapy for patients with resected pancreatic head adenocarcinoma. In step 1 of this protocol, patients were randomized to adjuvant gemcitabine versus the combination of gemcitabine and erlotinib. This manuscript reports the final analysis of these step 1 data. Methods: Eligibility—within 10 weeks of curative intent pancreaticoduodenectomy with postoperative CA19-9<180. Gemcitabine arm—6 cycles of gemcitabine. Gemcitabine+erlotinib arm—gemcitabine and erlotinib 100 mg/d. Two hundred deaths provided 90% power (1-sided α=0.15) to detect the hypothesized OS signal (hazard ratio=0.72) in favor of the arm 2. Results: From November 17, 2009 to February 28, 2014, 163 patients were randomized and evaluable for arm 1 and 159 for arm 2. Median age was 63 (39 to 86) years. CA19-9 ≤90 in 93%. Arm 1: 32 patients (20%) grade 4 and 2 (1%) grade 5 adverse events; arm 2, 27 (17%) grade 4 and 3 (2%) grade 5. GI adverse events, arm 1: 22% grade ≥3 and arm 2: 28%, ( P =0.22). The median follow-up (surviving patients) was 42.5 months (min-max: <1 to 75). With 203 deaths, the median and 3-year OS (95% confidence interval) are 29.9 months (21.7, 33.4) and 39% (30, 45) for arm 1 and 28.1 months (20.7, 30.9) and 39% (31, 47) for arm 2 (log-rank P =0.62). Hazard ratio (95% confidence interval) comparing OS of arm 2 to arm 1 is 1.04 (0.79, 1.38). Conclusions: The addition of adjuvant erlotinib to gemcitabine did not provide a signal for increased OS in this trial.

AbstractBackgroundSeveral registry-based analyses suggested a survival advantage for married versus single patients with pancreatic cancer. The mechanisms underlying the association of marital status and survival are likely multiple and complex and, therefore, may be obscured in analyses generated from large population-based databases. The goal of this research was to characterize this potential association of marital status with outcomes in patients with resected pancreatic cancer who underwent combined modality adjuvant therapy on a prospective clinical trial.Materials and MethodsThis is an ancillary analysis of 367 patients with known marital status treated on NRG Oncology/RTOG 97-04. Survival analysis was performed using the Kaplan-Meier method and compared using the log-rank test. Multivariate analysis was performed using the Cox proportional hazards regression model.ResultsOf 367 patients, 271 (74%) were married or partnered and 96 (26%) were single. Married or partnered patients were more likely to be male. There was no association between marital status and overall survival (OS) or disease-free survival (DFS) on univariate (hazard ratio [HR], 1.09 and 1.01, respectively) or multivariate analyses (HR, 1.05 and 0.98, respectively). Married or partnered male patients did not have improved survival compared with female or single patients.ConclusionAncillary analysis of data from NRG Oncology/RTOG 97-04 demonstrated no association between marital and/or partner status and OS or DFS in patients with resected pancreatic cancer who received adjuvant postoperative chemotherapy followed by concurrent external beam radiation therapy and chemotherapy.

Abstract Background: Single autologous stem cell transplant (ASCT) is considered the standard of care for younger multiple myeloma (MM) patients (pts). However, it is not curative and virtually all patients will ultimately relapse. As more options, such as biological therapy, are available to treat relapsed disease, the role of a second ASCT as salvage therapy is unclear. Method: Retrospective review of all MM pts who received a 2nd ASCT as salvage therapy at Princess Margaret Hospital. Results: Between February 1997 and June 2007, 61 MM pts received a second ASCT for relapsed MM at our institution. Median age was 56 yrs (range 35–71) at second transplant. 37 pts (61%) were male. Immunoglobulin subtype included IgG (36), IgA (14), light chain (6), nonsecretory (3), IgM(1) and IgD (1). Transplant conditioning regimen for first transplant was high dose melphalan (MEL) 140–200 mg/m2 in 51, MEL/etoposide(E)/TBI in 4, and MELl/TBI in 2. 2nd ASCT conditioning consisted of MEL + TBI +/− E in 2, MEL alone in 58 and Busulfan/Cyclophosphomide in 1. The median time from diagnosis to first transplant was 9.7 months (2.0–74.2). The median time to relapse after the first transplant was 32.6 months (9.7–85.6), with a median interval between transplants of 45.1 months (19.7– 115). Two transplant-related deaths occurred (3%). Response to first transplant was 4 CR (8%), 34 PR (68%), 2 MR (4%) and 10 SD (20%). Nineteen pts went on to maintenance therapy between transplants. Response to second transplant was 4 CR (8%), 41 PR (80%), 5 SD (10%) and 1 PD (2%). Median progression-free survival (PFS) was 15.8 months (0–63.8) while median overall survival (OS) was 4.2 years (0–7.0) after 2nd ASCT. The relationship between progression-free interval after 1st ASCT and the outcome of the 2nd ASCT is summarized Table 1. Patients can be stratified into two groups, those with a disease free interval of less than or greater than 24 months. The use of maintenance therapy did not differ between the two groups, 6 (40%) in patients with PFS ≤24 months and 13 (28%) in patients with PFS >24 months. Conclusions: 2nd ASCT is a feasible and safe salvage therapy in patients with relapsed MM. 2nd ASCT is effective in providing a median progression free survival of 1.25 years and median overall survival of 4.2 years after 2nd ASCT - results that compare favourably with other salvage approaches. Patients with a longer disease free interval after 1st ASCT experience a better progression free survival and overall survival after 2nd ASCT. It is reasonable, therefore, to consider a 2nd ASCT if the time to progression is greater than 2 years after first ASCT.

Abstract Background: Bendamustine and rituximab (BR) is a commonly chosen frontline treatment for grade 1-2 (G 1-2) follicular lymphoma (FL). This regimen resulted in significantly longer progression-free survival (PFS) and less toxicity compared to R-CHOP in the STiL trial [Rummel et al., 2013] and similar results were observed when comparing BR vs. R-CHOP/R-CVP in the confirmatory BRIGHT trial [Flinn et al., 2014, updated ASCO 2017]. Importantly, patients (pts) with grade 3A (G 3A) FL were excluded from these studies, yet the conclusions are often extrapolated to the treatment of G 3A pts. Notably, G 3A pts were included in the GALLIUM trial which used both bendamustine as well as CHOP backbones. Several retrospective studies of FL pts treated with frontline R-CHOP have demonstrated equivalent or improved overall survival (OS) for G 3A relative to G 1-2 FL (Koch et al., 2016, Mustafa et al., 2017, Yuan et al., 2017, Maeshima et al., 2013). Early disease progression after diagnosis and treatment with frontline R-CHOP has been identified as a strong predictor of poor OS in FL pts [Casulo et al. 2015], but has not been assessed in pts treated with frontline BR. We retrospectively evaluated outcomes of a large cohort of FL pts treated with frontline BR and stratified the results based on histologic grade and early vs. late progression. Methods: We reviewed medical records of adult (age >18) pts with FL treated with frontline BR at 18 US cancer centers. There was no central pathology review; each academic institution confirmed the diagnosis and grade of FL. Pts with unknown grade, grade 3B, or cutaneous FL were excluded. Baseline characteristics between grades were evaluated with the Chi-Square test for categorical variables and the Mann-Whitney U for continuous variables. Outcomes were calculated from time of initiation of BR. Patients were grouped according to whether or not they had progression of disease within 24 months of BR initiation (POD24). OS and PFS were estimated using the Kaplan-Meier method and compared using the log-rank test. Results: 687 pts were included (616 G 1-2, 71 G 3A). Median age at diagnosis was 60 years (range 21-94) with 53% men. The median time from diagnosis to treatment with BR was 1 month (range 0-139). The median duration of follow up for the entire cohort was 39 months. Characteristics including age, gender, ethnicity, ECOG, stage, LDH, and FLIPI are shown in the Table, and did not significantly differ between G 1-2 and G 3A pts. Rates of complete response (CR) and partial response (PR) to BR were similar between G 1-2 and G 3A (72%/22% vs. 66%/21%, respectively, p=0.114) but progressive disease (PD) was higher in G 3A pts (11.9%) relative to G 1-2 (4.8%, p=0.025). As shown in the Figure (A and B), 3-year PFS and OS was significantly longer for G 1-2 vs. G 3A pts (75% vs. 65%, log rank p= 0.035 and 90% vs. 86%, log rank p=0.007, respectively). Seventy-six (12.3%) of the 616 G 1-2 pts and 13 (18.3%) of the 71 G 3A pts experienced POD24 (p=0.19). For pts with both G 1-2 and G 3A FL, POD24 was associated with inferior OS (3-year OS 95% vs. 57% for G 1-2 pts, log rank p<0.0001 and 3-year OS 93% vs. 37% for G 3A pts, log rank p<0.0001) compared to patients without POD24. Conclusions: G 3A FL pts have an inferior OS and are significantly more likely to have PD to frontline BR compared to G 1-2, which differs from the published experience with R-CHOP. Similar to outcomes after frontline treatment with R-CHOP, POD24 after frontline BR for FL is associated with very poor OS. Future studies are needed to address optimal frontline management of pts with G3A as well as for pts with any grade FL with POD24 after frontline BR.
