Abstract
PURPOSE Initiating antineoplastic therapy can be distressful and affect patient retention of treatment-related side effects and safety protocols. Return visits can range from 8 to 28 days after treatment, during which patients may develop treatment-related questions and toxicities. This study's objective is to evaluate how implementing a follow-up phone call 24-48 hours after initial antineoplastic infusion, compared with standard pretreatment education, affects patient satisfaction and education retention. METHODS We conducted a single-center pilot study where patients who were literate, English-speaking, with genitourinary malignancies, initiating intravenous chemotherapy or immunotherapy were eligible. The primary end point was patient knowledge retention. Secondary end points included patient satisfaction. The Leuven's Questionnaire Patient Knowledge Tool, a validated, standardized tool, was used to evaluate patient knowledge retention, with a higher score indicating more retention. Telephone follow-up was initiated 24-48 hours after initial infusion, where Leuven's Questionnaire was used to assess patient knowledge. A nurse then reinforced treatment-related education, reviewed notification parameters, and coordinated appropriate follow-up. One week later, participants were sent a follow-up Leuven's Questionnaire and standardized patient satisfaction assessment. RESULTS Thirty-one patients with renal cell carcinoma, prostate, bladder, germ cell/testicular, or adrenal cancers were included in the study. Mean preintervention Leuven's Questionnaire score was 5.3 and mean postintervention score was 8.1 on a 1-10 scale (P < .0001). Ninety-seven percent of patients reported improved satisfaction postintervention. CONCLUSION Proactive telephonic follow-up for oncology patients improves education retention, patient satisfaction, and has potential to improve patient safety and quality of care.

Abstract
BACKGROUND COVID-19 can have a particularly detrimental effect on patients with cancer, but no studies to date have examined if the presence, or site, of metastatic cancer is related to COVID-19 outcomes. METHODS Using the COVID-19 and Cancer Consortium (CCC19) registry, the authors identified 10,065 patients with COVID-19 and cancer (2325 with and 7740 without metastasis at the time of COVID-19 diagnosis). The primary ordinal outcome was COVID-19 severity: not hospitalized, hospitalized but did not receive supplemental O2 , hospitalized and received supplemental O2 , admitted to an intensive care unit, received mechanical ventilation, or died from any cause. The authors used ordinal logistic regression models to compare COVID-19 severity by presence and specific site of metastatic cancer. They used logistic regression models to assess 30-day all-cause mortality. RESULTS Compared to patients without metastasis, patients with metastases have increased hospitalization rates (59% vs. 49%) and higher 30 day mortality (18% vs. 9%). Patients with metastasis to bone, lung, liver, lymph nodes, and brain have significantly higher COVID-19 severity (adjusted odds ratios [ORs], 1.38, 1.59, 1.38, 1.00, and 2.21) compared to patients without metastases at those sites. Patients with metastasis to the lung have significantly higher odds of 30-day mortality (adjusted OR, 1.53; 95% confidence interval, 1.17-2.00) when adjusting for COVID-19 severity. CONCLUSIONS Patients with metastatic cancer, especially with metastasis to the brain, are more likely to have severe outcomes after COVID-19 whereas patients with metastasis to the lung, compared to patients with cancer metastasis to other sites, have the highest 30-day mortality after COVID-19.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Even though cytoreductive nephrectomy (CN) was once the standard of care for patients with advanced renal cell carcinoma (RCC), its role in treatment has not been well analyzed or defined in the era of immunotherapy (IO). MATERIALS AND METHODS This study analyzed pathological outcomes in patients with advanced or metastatic RCC who received IO prior to CN. This was a multi-institutional, retrospective study of patients with advanced or metastatic RCC. Patients were required to receive IO monotherapy or combination therapy prior to radical or partial CN. The primary endpoint assessed surgical pathologic outcomes, including American Joint Committee on Cancer (AJCC) staging and frequency of downstaging, at the time of surgery. Pathologic outcomes were correlated to clinical variables using a Wald-chi squared test from Cox regression in a multi-variable analysis. Secondary outcomes included objective response rate (ORR) defined by response evaluation criteria in solid tumors (RECIST) version 1.1 and progression-free survival (PFS), which were estimated using the Kaplan-Meier method with reported 95% CIs. RESULTS Fifty-two patients from 9 sites were included. Most patients were male (65%), 81% had clear cell histology, 11% had sarcomatoid differentiation. Overall, 44% of patients experienced pathologic downstaging, and 13% had a complete pathologic response. The ORR immediately prior to nephrectomy was stable disease in 29% of patients, partial response in 63%, progressive disease in 4%, and 4% unknown. Median follow-up for the entire cohort was 25.3 months and median PFS was 3.5 years (95% CI, 2.1-4.9). CONCLUSIONS IO-based interventions prior to CN in patients with advanced or metastatic RCC demonstrates efficacy, with a small fraction of patients showing a complete response. Additional prospective studies are warranted to investigate the role of CN in the modern IO-era.

Abstract
Given that radium-223 is a radiopharmaceutical that induces DNA damage, and olaparib is a PARP inhibitor that interferes with DNA repair mechanisms, we hypothesized their synergy in metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC). We sought to demonstrate the safety and efficacy of olaparib + radium-223. We conducted a multicenter phase I 3+3 dose escalation study of olaparib with fixed dose radium-223 in patients with mCRPC with bone metastases. The primary objective was to establish the RP2D of olaparib, with secondary objectives of safety, PSA response, alkaline phosphatase response, radiographic progression-free survival (rPFS), overall survival, and efficacy by homologous recombination repair (HRR) gene status. Twelve patients were enrolled; all patients received a prior androgen receptor signaling inhibitor (ARSI; 100%) and 3 patients (25%) prior docetaxel. Dose-limiting toxicities (DLT) included cytopenias, fatigue, and nausea. No DLTs were seen in the observation period however delayed toxicities guided the RP2D. The RP2D of olaparib was 200 mg orally twice daily with radium-223. The most common treatment-related adverse events were fatigue (92%) and anemia (58%). The rPFS at 6 months was 58% (95% confidence interval, 27%-80%). Nine patients were evaluable for HRR gene status; 1 had a BRCA2 alteration (rPFS 11.8 months) and 1 had a CDK12 alteration (rPFS 3.1 months). Olaparib can be safely combined with radium-223 at the RP2D 200 mg orally twice daily with fixed dose radium-223. Early clinical benefit was observed and will be investigated in a phase II study.

Abstract
Importance Cytokine storm due to COVID-19 can cause high morbidity and mortality and may be more common in patients with cancer treated with immunotherapy (IO) due to immune system activation. Objective To determine the association of baseline immunosuppression and/or IO-based therapies with COVID-19 severity and cytokine storm in patients with cancer. Design, Setting, and Participants This registry-based retrospective cohort study included 12 046 patients reported to the COVID-19 and Cancer Consortium (CCC19) registry from March 2020 to May 2022. The CCC19 registry is a centralized international multi-institutional registry of patients with COVID-19 with a current or past diagnosis of cancer. Records analyzed included patients with active or previous cancer who had a laboratory-confirmed infection with SARS-CoV-2 by polymerase chain reaction and/or serologic findings. Exposures Immunosuppression due to therapy; systemic anticancer therapy (IO or non-IO). Main Outcomes and Measures The primary outcome was a 5-level ordinal scale of COVID-19 severity: no complications; hospitalized without requiring oxygen; hospitalized and required oxygen; intensive care unit admission and/or mechanical ventilation; death. The secondary outcome was the occurrence of cytokine storm. Results The median age of the entire cohort was 65 years (interquartile range [IQR], 54-74) years and 6359 patients were female (52.8%) and 6598 (54.8%) were non-Hispanic White. A total of 599 (5.0%) patients received IO, whereas 4327 (35.9%) received non-IO systemic anticancer therapies, and 7120 (59.1%) did not receive any antineoplastic regimen within 3 months prior to COVID-19 diagnosis. Although no difference in COVID-19 severity and cytokine storm was found in the IO group compared with the untreated group in the total cohort (adjusted odds ratio [aOR], 0.80; 95% CI, 0.56-1.13, and aOR, 0.89; 95% CI, 0.41-1.93, respectively), patients with baseline immunosuppression treated with IO (vs untreated) had worse COVID-19 severity and cytokine storm (aOR, 3.33; 95% CI, 1.38-8.01, and aOR, 4.41; 95% CI, 1.71-11.38, respectively). Patients with immunosuppression receiving non-IO therapies (vs untreated) also had worse COVID-19 severity (aOR, 1.79; 95% CI, 1.36-2.35) and cytokine storm (aOR, 2.32; 95% CI, 1.42-3.79). Conclusions and Relevance This cohort study found that in patients with cancer and COVID-19, administration of systemic anticancer therapies, especially IO, in the context of baseline immunosuppression was associated with severe clinical outcomes and the development of cytokine storm. Trial Registration ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT04354701.

Abstract
119 Background: Radium-223 is an α-emitting radioisotope that induces DNA double-strand breaks leading to cell death. In preclinical models, PARP inhibitors have shown efficacy as radiosensitizing agents. We designed a phase 1/2 trial to test the safety and efficacy of radium-223 + olaparib. Tissue based studies investigated homologous recombination repair (HRR) gene status. Methods: This was an open-label, multi-center, phase 1/2 study (NCT03317392) evaluating the dosing, safety and efficacy of radium-223 + olaparib. Eligible patients (pts) had mCRPC with ≥2 bone metastases without visceral metastases or lymphadenopathy > 4 cm. There was no limit on prior therapy. All pts had a baseline biopsy and archival tissue was collected when available. The phase 1 used a 3+3 dose escalation design with fixed dose radium-223 (55 kBq/kg IV every 4 weeks x 6). Dose level 1 (DL1) was olaparib 200 mg PO BID; DL2 was olaparib 300 mg PO BID. The primary objective was to determine the recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D). Secondary objectives included radiographic progression-free survival (rPFS) (PCWG3 criteria), PSA response (50% decline from baseline), and alkaline phosphatase response (30% decline from baseline). HRR gene status was determined using Oncopanel tissue profiling. Results: 12 pts were enrolled on the phase 1. Median age was 68 (range 59-81) years. Median prior lines of CRPC therapies was 2 (1-5), including 3 (25%) who had received prior chemotherapy and 12 (100%) a prior novel hormone therapy. The RP2D of olaparib was 200 mg BID when combined with radium-223. Overall, PSA response and alkaline phosphatase response were 16.7% (n=2) and 67% (n=8), respectively. Median follow-up was 6.5 (range 2.8, 11.8) months, and 6-month rPFS was 57% (95% CI: 25%, 80%). 9 patients had available tissue for Oncopanel testing (7 from baseline metastasis biopsy; 2 from archival prostate tissue). Two patients were identified to have pathogenic HRR gene alterations: 1 patient with a BRCA2 mutation with rPFS of 11.63 months, 1 patient with CDK12 mutation with rPFS 2.60 months (Table). Conclusions: We demonstrate that olaparib can be safety combined with radium-223 with RP2D of 200 mg BID. Though limited by sample size, we demonstrate prolonged disease control in a pt with a BRCA2 mutation receiving radium-223 + olaparib. Additional profiling from the currently accruing phase 2 study of radium-223 +/- olaparib will further elucidate biomarkers of response. Clinical trial information: NCT03317392. [Table: see text]

Abstract
334 Background: IO, either as combination therapy in the frontline or monotherapy in the second line, has improved outcomes for patients with advanced RCC. With the movement away from upfront CN, limited data are available on the outcomes of patients who receive IO with delayed CN. In this study, we characterized the pathologic and survival outcomes for patients who received IO followed by CN. Methods: We conducted a multi-center, retrospective analysis of patients with advanced/metastatic RCC having received IO combination or monotherapy followed by CN. An IRB-approved and HIPAA-compliant registry was used to collect data from the electronic medical record. Our primary endpoint was the degree of pathologic downstaging comparing baseline clinical T stage to pathologic T stage following IO. Secondary endpoints included investigator assessed response using RECIST principals, progression-free survival (PFS), and overall survival (OS). Results: We identified53 patients with advanced RCC across 9 institutions who were eligible for the study. The median age was 63 years, 72% were white, and 60% were male. 81% of patients had clear cell histology, 11% had sarcomatoid differentiation, and 75% presented with de novo metastatic disease. Baseline IMDC risk is as follows: 4% favorable, 55% intermediate, and 26% poor risk with 15% unknown. 23% had bone metastases and 23% had liver metastases at baseline. Lines of therapy prior to CN was 1 line in 74% of patients, 2 lines in 25%, and 3 lines in 2%. For the line of IO therapy immediately preceding CN, 49% received nivolumab+ipilimumab, 30% received IO monotherapy, and 21% received combination IO/VEGF therapy. The median duration of therapy prior to surgery was 11.3 months (range 0.38-47.8). 28% of patients discontinued treatment after CN for observation. Best overall response prior to CN was stable disease in 25% of patients, partial response in 60%, and progressive disease in 4% with 11% unknown. Following receipt of IO-based treatment, 38% of patients exhibited downstaging from the baseline clinical T stage to the CN pathological T stage (Table). 11% of patients had no residual disease at CN. For pathologic outcomes, 85% of patients had negative margins, 75% had necrosis present, and the median tumor size at CN was 6.5 cm. The median PFS was 11.3 months and median OS was 25.7 months for the overall cohort. Conclusions: IO-based strategies demonstrate efficacy in the renal primary in patients with advanced RCC. T stage downstaging was demonstrated in 38% of patients with 11% having a complete pathologic response in the renal primary following IO administration. Biomarker studies on baseline and CN tissue will further elucidate molecular predictors of response and resistance to IO therapy.[Table: see text]

Abstract
390 Background:The concept of primary systemic therapy has gained increasing traction in the management of metastatic and locally advanced Renal Cell Carcinoma (RCC). Most series have evaluated the use of tyrosine-kinase inhibitors, however, with the emergence of immune checkpoint inhibitor therapy as first line agents in advanced RCC, further assessment of efficacy is warranted. We examined the effects of immunotherapy (IO) combinations on the primary tumor and consequent surgical quality and short-term oncological outcomes. Methods: We conducted a multi-center, retrospective analysis of patients with advanced/metastatic RCC having received IO followed by Radical (RN) or partial nephrectomy (PN). Primary outcome was achievement of Bifecta (composite outcome of complete resection and no 30-day post-operative complications). Predictors for achievement of Bifecta were assessed with logistic regression multivariable analysis. Secondary outcomes were change in maximal tumor dimension, RENAL nephrometry score and disease progression. Kaplan-Meier analysis was used to assess progression-free survival (PFS) for Bifecta and non-Bifecta patients. Results: We identified 52 patients with advanced RCC across 9 institutions who were eligible. The median age was 63 years and 60.4% were males. Median tumor size at diagnosis was 9.3 cm. 19.6% had T4 disease and 75% had AJCC Stage IV disease. IO treatment resulted in significant reductions in median tumor size (-25.4%; 9.7 cm vs. 7.3cm p = 0.0129) and RENAL nephrometry score (9 to 8, p = 0.032). 43 (83%) of patients underwent RN and (9) 17% had PN. Median tumor size was smaller for PN (8 vs. 4.1 cm, p < 0.001), and 30 day complication rates were higher (p = 0.024). Bifecta was achieved in 39 patients [33/42 (78.6%) RN and 6/9 (67%) PN, p = 0.264). Predictors for achievement of Bifecta were younger age (OR 1.06, p = 0.01), increasing reduction in tumor size (OR 1.187, p < 0.001), and shorter time between therapy and surgery (OR 1.07, p < 0.001). Kaplan-Meier analysis demonstrated longer median time to progression in the Bifecta-positive group compared to patients who failed to achieve Bifecta (75 vs. 30 months, p = 0.04). Conclusions: Pre-surgical therapy resulted in tumor size and complexity reduction. Tumor size reduction was predictive for achievement of Bifecta, which was associated with improved short term oncological outcomes. To our knowledge, this is the first series evaluating the effect of neoadjuvant systemic therapy on the primary tumor prior to surgical intervention.

Abstract
e17020 Background: Radium-223 is an α-emitting radioisotope that induces DNA double-stranded breaks leading to cell death and has improved survival in mCRPC. In preclinical models, PARP inhibitors have shown efficacy as radiosensitizing agents. We designed a phase 1/2 trial to test the hypothesis that radium-223 + olaparib will demonstrate anti-tumor activity in mCRPC irrespective of homologous recombination repair deficiency (HRD) status. Methods: This is an open label, multi-center, phase 1/2 study (NCT03317392) evaluating the dosing, safety and efficacy of radium-223 + olaparib. Eligible patients (pts) had mCRPC with ≥2 bone metastases without visceral metastases or lymphadenopathy > 4 cm. There was no limit on prior therapy. All pts had a baseline biopsy. The phase 1 used a 3+3 dose escalation design with fixed dose radium-223 (55 kBq/kg IV every 4 weeks x 6). Dose level 1 (DL1) was olaparib 200 mg PO BID; DL2 was olaparib 300 mg PO BID. The primary objective was to determine the recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D) and safety. The dose limiting toxicities (DLT) evaluation period was 2 cycles (1 cycle=28 days). Secondary endpoints included radiographic progression-free survival (rPFS) defined by PCWG3 criteria, PSA response (50% decline from baseline), and alkaline phosphatase response (30% decline from baseline). Results: 12 pts were enrolled on the phase 1. Median age was 68 (range 59-81) years. Median prior lines of CRPC therapies was 2 (1-5), including 3 (25%) who had received prior chemotherapy and 100% a prior novel hormone therapy. 6 pts were enrolled at DL1. 1 patient experienced a DLT outside the DLT evaluation period. 3 pts had grade (G) 3-4 treatment-related adverse events (TrAE) including G3 anemia (n=2) and G3 thrombocytopenia (n=1). No patient underwent dose reductions at DL1. 6 pts were enrolled at DL2. 1 patient experienced a DLT outside the DLT evaluation period. 2 pts had G3-4 TrAE including G3 anemia and G4 lymphocytopenia (n=1) and G3 stroke (n=1). 5 underwent dose reductions at DL2. There were no G5 events. Reason for treatment discontinuation is in the table below. After review of safety data, the safety monitoring committee deemed the RP2D of olaparib at 200 mg BID when combined with radium-223. Overall, PSA response and alkaline phosphatase response were 16.7% (n=2, 1 at DL1, 1 at DL2) and 67% (n=8, 3 at DL1, 5 at DL2), respectively. Median follow-up was 6.5 (range 2.8, 11.8) months, and 6-month rPFS was 57% (95% CI: 25%, 80%). Conclusions: We demonstrate that olaparib can be safety combined with radium-223 with RP2 dose of 200 mg BID. The phase 2 study of radium-223 +/- olaparib is accruing (target 120 pts). Outcomes by HRD status will be presented. Clinical trial information: NCT03317392. [Table: see text]

Abstract
TPS4593 Background: Bone metastases are prevalent in approximately 30% of pts with advanced RCC. Pts with bone metastases have a worse prognosis compared to pts without bone metastases and are at risk of symptomatic skeletal events (SSEs). Cabozantinib, a multitargeted inhibitor of multiple kinases, including vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) receptor and MET, has improved survival in pts with metastatic RCC and has enhanced activity in bone. Ra-223, an alpha-emitting radioisotope with natural bone-seeking proclivity, has been shown to prolong survival in men with castration-resistant prostate cancer. We previously conducted a pilot study of Ra-223 with VEGF inhibition and demonstrated safety and declines in markers of bone formation and resorption with the combination (McKay et al, CCR 2018). Given that decreasing rates of SSEs and improving outcomes for pts with RCC with bone metastases are unmet needs in pts with RCC, we designed a randomized phase 2 study through the National Clinical Trials Network (NCTN) investigating cabozantinib with or without Ra-223 in patients with RCC with bone metastases. Methods: This is an open-label multicenter study. Eligible pts have metastatic RCC of any histology with ≥2 metastatic bone lesions untreated with prior radiation therapy and no more than 2 prior lines of systemic therapy. Pts with non-clear cell RCC are eligible and will be capped at 20% of the total accrual goal. Pts must have a Karnofsky performance status of ≥60%, have symptomatic bone pain defined as a prior SSE or need of analgesics, and be on osteoclast-targeted therapy unless otherwise contraindicated. Pts are randomized 1:1 to cabozantinib with (Arm A) or without (Arm B) Ra-223. Starting dose of cabozantinib for Arm A is 40 mg by mouth daily to be escalated to 60 mg daily after cycle 1 (1 cycle = 28 days) if no persistent grade 2 or grade ≥3 toxicity. Ra-223 is administered at a fixed dose of 1.49 microcurie/kg IV every 28 days x 6 doses. The primary endpoint is SSE-free survival. Secondary endpoints include safety, progression-free survival, overall survival, quality of life measures, and correlative analyses including liquid biopsy studies and tumor tissue analysis. The study has 90% power to detect an improvement in 6-month SSE-free survival rate from 65% to 78% with one-sided α = 0.025 significance. To ensure 191 evaluable patients, target accrual is 210 pts. This design includes a safety run-in and an interim analysis for futility when 50% of the expected number of events (72 SSE events) have been observed. Final data analysis will occur when 143 events have been observed. The study was activated in December 2019 and accrual is currently ongoing throughout the NCTN. Clinical trial information: NCT04071223.

Abstract
Background: Little is known about the prevalence of germline alterations in Hispanic men with prostate cancer (PC). Here, we examine the rates of germline alterations in Hispanic men with PC, compare these rates to non-Hispanic white men, and examine factors associated with clinicians offering testing. Methods: Single center, retrospective analysis of patients (pts) with PC who self-identify as Hispanic and meet the NCCN criteria for germline testing. Pts who consented for testing underwent a commercial multigene germline assay. Among those tested, the proportion of pathogenic alterations and variants of uncertain significance (VUS) were computed in 20 genes associated with germline alterations in PC. This was compared to non-Hispanic white (NHW) pts who also underwent germline testing. Multivariate logistic regression was performed to assess clinical and demographic factors associated with clinicians offering germline testing and/or genetics referral. Results: We identified 136 Hispanic men with PC eligible for germline testing between 2018-2020. 26.1% (n=34) of pts underwent germline testing and among those tested, 14.7% (n=5/34) had a pathogenic alteration detected. Median age of the cohort was 70 years and 46.3% (n=63) had metastatic disease. Spanish was the primary language for 50% (n=68) and 14.0% (n=19) of pts had at least 1 first-degree relative with PC. Alterations were detected in ATM (n=2), CHEK2 (n=1), MSH2 (n=1), MSH6 (n=1). When stratified by disease status, the rate of pathogenic alterations was 7.7% (n=1/13) in localized and 19.0% (n=4/21) in metastatic disease. When compared to NHW pts who underwent testing (n=139), the rate of pathogenic alterations was not significantly different (14.7% in Hispanic vs 12.2% in NWH, p=0.77). The rate of VUS in Hispanic pts was significantly higher than NHW pts (20.6% in Hispanic vs 7.2% in NWH, p=0.047). In a multivariate model examining the factors associated with receipt of testing in Hispanic men (Table), the presence of metastatic disease and a family history of PC were positively associated with testing. Spanish as a primary language was negatively associated with testing. Age was not a significant predictor. Conclusions: Among Hispanic men who underwent germline testing, there was a similar rate of pathogenic germline alterations compared to NHW men. Among Hispanic men, primary Spanish speakers appear to have lower rates of germline testing. Bilingual strategies are needed to improve rates of testing to ensure equity in germline testing for all patients. [Table: see text]

Abstract
79 Background: Hospitalized patients on the heme/BMT service at our academic cancer center have historically not received pharmacologic VTE prophylaxis (VTEP) due to concerns regarding thrombocytopenia and bleeding risk. However, a retrospective review of heme/BMT admissions from 2009 to 2013 revealed that 59% of hospital-acquired VTE cases occurred at a platelet count > 50 x 10E9/L, suggesting missed opportunities for VTE prevention. Methods: To implement VTEP on the heme/BMT service, a multidisciplinary quality improvement team developed a pilot intervention with 5 strategies: 1) identification of heme/BMT-specific contraindications to VTEP, 2) standardized use of VTEP for all heme/BMT patients unless contraindications are present, 3) hold parameter for platelet count < 50 x 10E9/L within the VTEP order, 4) note template to document VTEP plan, and 5) provider, nurse, pharmacist, and patient education. We conducted audit and feedback every two weeks for two process measures: VTEP ordered for eligible patients (pre-pilot VTEP ordered for < 1%) and VTEP plan documented (pre-pilot documentation of 23%). Patients on therapeutic anticoagulation were excluded. We also tracked major bleeding events among patients receiving VTEP. Results: Since pilot implementation in July 2015, 105 patients admitted during audit periods met the inclusion criteria; 11 patients on therapeutic anticoagulation were excluded. Contraindications to VTEP were present for 56 patients, most commonly platelet count < 50 x 10E9/L (46%), central nervous system lymphoma (23%), and anticipated procedure (21%). Among the 49 eligible patients, VTEP was appropriately ordered for 42 (86%). VTEP plan was documented for 102 patients (97%). One VTEP-associated bleed occurred in a patient with recent polypectomy, prompting the addition of a new contraindication for recent procedures. Conclusions: Our multidisciplinary pilot successfully improved VTEP orders for eligible heme/BMT patients from < 1% to 86% and VTEP plan documentation from 23% to 97%. Rates of hospital-acquired VTE and major bleeding are being tracked prospectively to evaluate efficacy and safety.
