Abstract
BACKGROUND The ability of the survival nomogram developed in the EACH study and albumin-bilirubin (ALBI) grade to predict the survival of advanced hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) patients receiving oxaliplatin plus 5-fluorouracil/leucovorin (FOLFOX4) remains unvalidated. Here, we comprehensively evaluated these prognostic tools. METHODS The survival nomogram and ALBI grade of each patient were assessed, and the area under the receiver operating curve (AUROC) and Harrell's C-index for the risk classification model were calculated. RESULTS Overall, 76 HCC patients who received FOLFOX4 between August 2017 and June 2023 were included. The survival nomogram classified patients into low-, intermediate-, and high-risk groups, with a median overall survival (OS) of 9.82, 10.64, and 3.70 months, respectively (p = 0.23). The AUROC was 0.621 and Harrell's C-index was 0.589. However, the ALBI grade categorized all patients into grade 1, 2, and 3, with a median OS of 9.82, 6.83, and 1.58 months, respectively (p = 0.00024). The AUROC was 0.663 and Harrell's C-index was 0.663. CONCLUSION The ALBI grade can be a potential prognostic tool. However, the survival nomogram does not provide clear discrimination. Therefore, FOLFOX4 should be an option for patients with ALBI grade 1 who cannot receive immunotherapy or targeted therapy. Additional prospective studies with a larger cohort are warranted to validate the survival nomogram and ALBI grade as prognostic tools.

Abstract
BACKGROUND No widely used prognostic tool exists to demonstrate the benefit of oxaliplatin plus 5-fluorouracil/leucovorin (FOLFOX4) in patients with advanced hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). We aimed to establish a prognostic score and demonstrate the real-world efficacy of FOLFOX4 chemotherapy in Thai patients. METHODS Between August 2017 and December 2021, we identified 58 FOLFOX4-treated patients with HCC. Overall survival (OS), progression-free survival (PFS), and objective response rate (ORR) were assessed. The prognostic score was constructed by stepwise Cox proportional hazards regression analysis to select variables for the best model with the lowest Akaike information criterion from all potential variables. RESULTS Forty-four patients (76%) received FOLFOX4 as first-line therapy. The ORR in the entire cohort was 8.6%, and the disease control rate was 29.3%. The PFS and OS were 3.7 and 4.8 months, respectively. Four clinically relevant variables were included in the new prognostic score to predict 6-month OS: L, the presence of lung metastasis; A, alcoholic cirrhosis; B, elevated total bilirubin level; and S, sorafenib-naïve status. Using the LABS score, patients were classified into low-, intermediate-, and high-risk groups, demonstrating OS values of 9.3, 4.2, and 2.1 months, respectively (p < 0.0001). The C-index and area under the receiver-operating characteristic curve of the score were 0.71 and 0.73, respectively. CONCLUSIONS The proposed LABS score could discriminate patients who would derive benefit from FOLFOX4 chemotherapy. FOLFOX4 chemotherapy is an option for patients who cannot receive immunotherapy and targeted therapy, particularly those with a low-risk score. However, further validation of this model via larger cohorts is warranted.

Abstract
This is a summary of the original article ‟Overall survival with osimertinib in resected EGFR-mutated NSCLC.ˮ Osimertinib blocks the activity of the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) on cancer cells, causing cancer cell death and tumor shrinkage, and is an effective treatment for EGFR-mutated non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). The ADAURA study assessed the effects of osimertinib versus placebo in patients with EGFR-mutated (exon 19 deletion or L858R) early stage (IB-IIIA) NSCLC removed by surgery (resected). Previous results from ADAURA demonstrated that patients treated with osimertinib stayed alive and cancer-free (disease-free survival) significantly longer than patients who received placebo. Recent data showed the overall length of time patients were alive after starting treatment (overall survival). In both the primary stage II-IIIA and overall stage IB-IIIA populations, patients in the osimertinib group had a significant 51% reduction in the risk of death compared with the placebo group. The data demonstrated that osimertinib after surgery significantly improved overall survival in patients with resected, EGFR-mutated, stage IB-IIIA NSCLC.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Persistent high-risk human papillomavirus (HPV) infection is one of the major etiologies of oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma (OPSCC). This study aimed to determine the proportion, temporal trend, and prognostic significance of HPV-related OPSCC in Thai patients. METHODS The study included patients with OPSCC who were treated at Songklanagarind Hospital (Songkhla, Southern Thailand) from 2009 to 2020. HPV status was screened by p16 expression using immunohistochemistry and confirmed by real-time polymerase chain reaction. Cox regression was used to determine prognostic significance. RESULTS The overall proportion of HPV+ OPSCC was 15.3% (95% confidence interval [CI]: 12.1-18.5) with a slightly increased proportion from 10.6% in 2009-2010 to 16.5% (2019-2020) (P for trend = 0.166). Among the HPV+ cases, HPV16 was detected in 65.3%, HPV18 in 34.7%, and other high-risk HPV types in 24%. Patients with P16+ or HPV+ OPSCC had significantly better overall survival (hazard ratio [HR]: 0.63, 95% CI: 0.45-0.90 and HR: 0.63, 95% CI: 0.45-0.88, respectively). CONCLUSION Thai patients in the southern region have a low proportion of HPV-related OPSCC with an increasing trend. Both P16 expression and HPV DNA status are strong independent prognostic factors of OPSCC.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Programmed cell death receptor-1 (PD-1)-blocking antibodies are approved to treat metastatic or locally advanced cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma (CSCC) cases ineligible for curative surgery or radiation. Notwithstanding, some patients experience inadequate responses or severe immune-related adverse events (AEs), indicating the need for improved therapies. Cosibelimab is a high-affinity programmed cell death-ligand 1 (PD-L1)-blocking antibody that activates innate and adaptive immunity by blocking PD-L1 interaction with PD-1 and B7-1 receptors. It is an unmodified immunoglobulin G1 subtype with a functional Fc domain capable of inducing antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity and complement-dependent cytotoxicity. Here, we present results of the pivotal study of patients with metastatic CSCC from an open-label, multicenter, multiregional, multicohort, phase 1 trial of cosibelimab. METHODS In this trial, participants with metastatic CSCC received cosibelimab 800 mg intravenously every 2 weeks. Primary endpoint was objective response rate (ORR) by independent central review using Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors, V.1.1. Secondary endpoints included duration of response (DOR) and safety. RESULTS Objective response was observed in 37 of 78 participants (47.4% (95% CI: 36.0% to 59.1%)), with median follow-up of 15.4 months (range: 0.4 to 40.5) as of data cut-off. Median DOR was not reached (range: 1.4+ to 34.1+ months), with response ongoing in 73.0% of participants. Common treatment-emergent AEs (≥15%) were fatigue (26.9%), rash (16.7%), and anemia (15.4%). Eighteen participants (23.1%) experienced immune-related AEs (grade 3: n=2 (2.6%); no grade 4/5). No treatment-related deaths were reported. CONCLUSIONS Cosibelimab demonstrated clinically meaningful ORR and DOR and was associated with a manageable safety profile. TRIAL REGISTRATION NUMBER NCT03212404.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Combination fluoropyrimidine-based chemotherapy is the standard first-line treatment for metastatic colorectal cancer (CRC). We performed a propensity score (PS)-based analysis to report our real-world experience with long-term follow-up of this regimen for metastatic CRC. METHODS In this retrospective study, 170 patients with newly diagnosed metastatic CRC treated with first-line combination chemotherapy between January 2003 and March 2021 were identified. Cox proportional hazards regression analysis and PS-based approaches with the logistic regression model were adopted, and the results were compared. RESULTS The hazard ratio for overall survival (OS) in the oxaliplatin- and irinotecan-based groups was 0.79 (95% confidence interval = 0.56-1.11), and the median OS times in these groups were 16.8 and 13.0 months, respectively. The median time to progression (TTP) for these regimens were 9.0 and 8.9 months, respectively. The objective response rates for the oxaliplatin- and irinotecan-based groups were 42.7% and 34.6%, respectively. OS and TTP did not differ between these regimens in all PS matching models. CONCLUSIONS First-line treatment using fluoropyrimidine-based chemotherapy regimens in combination with oxaliplatin or irinotecan in patients with metastatic CRC provided comparable efficacy and tolerable toxicity profiles in a real-world setting with long-term follow-up.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Among patients with resected, epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR)-mutated, stage IB to IIIA non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC), adjuvant osimertinib therapy, with or without previous adjuvant chemotherapy, resulted in significantly longer disease-free survival than placebo in the ADAURA trial. We report the results of the planned final analysis of overall survival. METHODS In this phase 3, double-blind trial, we randomly assigned eligible patients in a 1:1 ratio to receive osimertinib (80 mg once daily) or placebo until disease recurrence was observed, the trial regimen was completed (3 years), or a discontinuation criterion was met. The primary end point was investigator-assessed disease-free survival among patients with stage II to IIIA disease. Secondary end points included disease-free survival among patients with stage IB to IIIA disease, overall survival, and safety. RESULTS Of 682 patients who underwent randomization, 339 received osimertinib and 343 received placebo. Among patients with stage II to IIIA disease, the 5-year overall survival was 85% in the osimertinib group and 73% in the placebo group (overall hazard ratio for death, 0.49; 95.03% confidence interval [CI], 0.33 to 0.73; P<0.001). In the overall population (patients with stage IB to IIIA disease), the 5-year overall survival was 88% in the osimertinib group and 78% in the placebo group (overall hazard ratio for death, 0.49; 95.03% CI, 0.34 to 0.70; P<0.001). One new serious adverse event, pneumonia related to coronavirus disease 2019, was reported after the previously published data-cutoff date (the event was not considered by the investigator to be related to the trial regimen, and the patient fully recovered). Adjuvant osimertinib had a safety profile consistent with that in the primary analysis. CONCLUSIONS Adjuvant osimertinib provided a significant overall survival benefit among patients with completely resected, EGFR-mutated, stage IB to IIIA NSCLC.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Though concurrent chemoradiotherapy (CCRT) with cisplatin remains a standard of care for patients with locally advanced nasopharyngeal carcinoma (LA-NPC), carboplatin has alternatively been used without sufficient supportive evidences. Thus, we evaluated an efficacy and tolerability of carboplatin CCRT compared with cisplatin in LA-NPC patients. METHODS Patients with LA-NPC treated with CCRT were identified through the Thai multicenter head and neck cancer database. Patient tolerability and survival were analyzed and compared between regimens. Survivals were calculated by using the Kaplan-Meier method, and compared by the log-rank test. A p-value of <0.05 was considered statistically significant. RESULTS A total of 135 of 980 patients (13.8%) were treated with carboplatin. Patients treated with carboplatin were significantly associated with older age (p < 0.001), smoking (p = 0.003), more comorbidity (p = 0.014), kidney disease (p = 0.016), and lower baseline creatinine clearance (p < 0.001). Intensity-modulated radiation therapy was used significantly more in the cisplatin group than carboplatin group (p < 0.001). Patients who received carboplatin were associated with delay (p = 0.049) and hospitalization (p = 0.006), whereas cisplatin CCRT had more dose reduction (p = 0.001). Patients treated with cisplatin had CCRT interruption from grade 3-4 mucositis (p = 0.019) more than carboplatin, whereas carboplatin had more grade 3-4 thrombocytopenia (p < 0.001). The 5-year overall survival (OS) of patients treated with cisplatin and carboplatin was 59% and 49%, respectively (p = 0.128). Cisplatin or carboplatin CCRT was not a significant predictor for OS and locoregional recurrence-free survival in multivariate analysis. CONCLUSIONS Carboplatin CCRT provided acceptable efficacy and tolerability profiles in real-world practice. Carboplatin should be considered as an alternative regimen, particularly in cisplatin-ineligible patients with LA-NPC treated with CCRT.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Pain is one of the most frequent symptoms in cancer patients and has a negative impact on their physical, emotional and functional status, as well as their quality of life (QOL). This study evaluated the effectiveness of a pain management programme on pain control and QOL among patients with metastatic cancer receiving systemic chemotherapy. The authors investigated whether a pain management programme contributes to a better pain control and improvement in QOL in the outpatient setting. METHODS The authors conducted a randomised, single-blinded, controlled, single-centre study of metastatic cancer patients experiencing cancer pain and requiring opioid therapy. Patients were enrolled from the Medical Oncology Outpatient Clinic, Songklanagarind Hospital, Prince of Songkla University, Thailand. Participants were randomly assigned to two strategies: pain assessment and management based on the programme developed by the researchers ('pain management programme' arm), and pain management by individual medical oncologists per the routine procedure ('standard of care' arm). Demographics questionnaires, a pain intensity assessment using the Numeric Rating Scale (NRS) and the Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy-General (FACT-G, version 4) were used to assess the QOL and cancer pain severity at baseline and at two follow-up visits. RESULTS Between November 2016 and July 2017, 64 consecutive patients were randomly assigned to the two treatment groups. Most were male (79.7%), with a mean age of 55.1 (±13.8) years. The majority of patients (23; 35.9%) had squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck, with other prevalent types being lung cancer (9.4%), esophageal cancer (9.4%) and colorectal cancer (9.4%). The most frequent metastatic sites were the lungs (28.1%), liver (26.6%), and bone (20.3%). FINDINGS Compared with standard care, pain intensity was significantly lower among the patients receiving the pain management programme: 4.0 ±2.2 versus 5.1 ±1.8 (P = 0.033) and 3.3 ±1.7 versus 4.7 ±2.1 (P = 0.025) at visit 1 and 2, respectively. Likewise, QOL measures scored higher in the pain management programme group: 71.2 ±15.4 versus 58.6 ±14.5 (P = 0.002) and 71.8 ±15.5 versus 55.4 ±16.3 (P = 0.002) at visit 1 and 2, respectively. Furthermore, there was a statistically significant positive correlation between pain control and QOL improvement (P = 0.011). CONCLUSION The investigated pain management programme significantly improved both pain control and QOL in metastatic cancer patients receiving systemic chemotherapy in the outpatient setting.

Abstract
PURPOSE The necessity of prophylactic percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy (PPEG) before concurrent chemoradiation (CCRT) in head and neck cancer (HNC) patients remains uncertain. We evaluated the utilization rate of PPEG tube. Weight changes and tube dependence were also assessed. MATERIALS AND METHODS This prospective cohort study evaluated the utilization rate of PPEG tube in patients with newly diagnosed HNC undergoing CCRT. Baseline characteristics, nutrition status, and weight loss data were collected and compared between use and non-use groups. RESULTS 110 patients (94.8%) used PPEG tube (70 fully-used and 40 partially-used groups). Non-users had a tendency to lose weight more than partially and fully-used groups; 9.13%, 3.42%, and 1.95%, respectively (p = 0.085). Fully-used group had significantly longer time of tube dependence than partially-used group, 7.0 months versus 4.9 months (p = 0.012). The type of PPEG tube use (full use or partial use) and presence of dysphagia were significantly related to tube dependence. The time ratio of tube dependence for partially-used patients versus fully-used patients was 0.82 (95% CI: 0.68-0.99) (p = 0.039). The time ratio for patients with symptoms of dysphagia was 1.29 (95% CI: 1.02-1.63) (p = 0.032). At the end of CCRT, 96.6% of patients agreed that PPEG tube was necessary. CONCLUSION We recommend PPEG for patients undergoing CCRT. Partial use of PPEG with continuous oral intake as tolerated is strongly encouraged to maintain weight, and to reduce risk of tube dependence. Future study to evaluate effective swallowing exercise is warranted.

Abstract
Testicular neuroendocrine tumor associated with teratoma is a rare disease. Very few cases have been reported in the literature, particularly cases involving visceral metastasis. Teratoma with somatic malignant transformation (SMT) is associated with a worse prognosis compared to teratoma without SMT. Previous data have suggested that chemotherapy regimens should be directed toward the transformed histology; however, those suggestions were based on patients with rhabdomyosarcoma, adenocarcinoma, and primitive neuroectodermal subtypes. To the best of our knowledge, only 2 cases with visceral metastasis have been reported, and a better outcome with the bleomycin/etoposide/cisplatin regimen, which responds strongly to germ cell tumors, has been reported in these cases. In contrast, 2 others with lymph node metastasis did not respond to these regimens. Here, we report a case of a patient with testicular neuroendocrine carcinoma associated with teratoma who achieved a good response to chemotherapy.

Abstract
Background Phosphatidylinositol-4,5-bisphosphate 3-kinase catalytic subunit alpha (PIK3CA) mutations have been reported in many cancers, including head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC). The frequency of these mutations varies among tumor locations and might be relevant to treatment outcomes among HNSCC. In this study, we examined the frequency of PIK3CA mutations in the different subsites of HNSCC. Methods Ninety-six fresh biopsy specimens were investigated for mutations in PIK3CA exons 4, 9, and 20 using allele-specific real-time polymerase chain reaction. Patient characteristics and survival were analyzed and compared between specimens with or without PIK3CA mutations. Results The study included primary tumors originating from the oral cavity (n = 63), hypopharynx (n = 23), and oropharynx (n = 10). We identified mutations in 10.4% of patients (10 of 96 specimens). The overall mutational frequency was 17.4% (4/23) and 9.5% (6/63) in the hypopharynx and oral cavity, respectively. No patients with oropharyngeal carcinoma had mutations. Among the 10 mutant specimens, five were missense mutations (exon 9 [E545K] in two samples and exon 20 [H1047R] in three samples) and five were silent mutations in exon 20 (T1025T). Mutations were not found in exon 4. Among 84 patients with available clinical data, we found no significant differences in clinical characteristics and survival based on the presence or absence of PIK-3CA mutations. Conclusions The results indicate that PIK3CA mutations are involved in HNSCC carcinogenesis, and the hypopharynx should be considered a primary site of interest for future studies, particularly in Southeast Asian populations.

Abstract
BACKGROUND & AIMS The benefits of immunonutrition in patients with head and neck cancer (HNC), especially for those undergoing definitive concurrent chemoradiation (CCRT), remain unclear. We evaluated the benefits of immunonutrition regarding the prevention of severe oral mucositis. Secondary objectives included assessments of other treatment-related toxicities, changes of nutritional and inflammatory marker levels, treatment tolerance, and survival. METHODS In total, 110 patients with HNC undergoing definitive CCRT including 3-week cycles of cisplatin were enrolled in our double-blind phase II study. Patients were randomly assigned to receive an immunonutrient formula containing omega-3-fatty acids, arginine, dietary nucleotides, and soluble fiber (n = 55) or an isocaloric isonitrogenous control (n = 55). All patients received the assigned product 5 consecutive days before each chemotherapy session. The proportion of patients with severe oral mucositis was compared between the immunonutrients and control groups. RESULTS The rates of nasopharyngeal cancer (NPC) were 67% and 51% in the immunonutrients and control groups, respectively. All patients had 100% compliance to the assigned product. There was no difference of the proportion of patients with grade 3-4 oral mucositis between the two groups (62% vs. 67%, p = 0.690). At the time of analyses, survival tended to be better in the immunonutrients group. The 3-year progression-free survival rates were 69% (95% confidence interval [CI] = 55%-80%) and 44% (95% CI = 30%-57%) in the immunonutrients and control groups, respectively (p = 0.056), whereas the 3-year overall survival rates in these groups were 69% (95% CI = 54%-80%) and 50% (95% CI = 36%-66%; p = 0.065), respectively. In subgroup analyses according to the primary tumor location, the survival benefits were apparently maintained in patients with NPC. CONCLUSIONS Although our study did not demonstrate a reduced risk of severe oral mucositis, we found that immunonutrition might improve survival. Larger studies are needed to determine the optimal dose and schedule of immunonutrition to prevent oral mucositis. In addition, randomized phase III trials evaluating the survival benefits of immunonutrition in patients with cancer are required, and NPC might be a primary malignancy of interest.

Abstract
Primary pulmonary angiosarcomas (PPAs) are rare, and often, their diagnosis is delayed because of insidious clinical symptoms and imaging findings mimicking pulmonary thromboembolism (PE). A 33-year-old female patient presented with chest pain and progressive dyspnoea. Her initial diagnosis, based on clinical symptoms and CT pulmonary angiography (PA) findings, was PE. However, after treatment with anticoagulants, the patient failed to improve. A follow-up CTPA and further CT-guided biopsy results were compatible with angiosarcoma.

Abstract
BACKGROUND No standard treatment exists for platinum-refractory, recurrent/metastatic nasopharyngeal cancer (NPC). This phase II study (NCT02605967) evaluated progression-free survival (PFS) of spartalizumab, an antiprogrammed cell death protein-1 (PD-1) monoclonal antibody, versus chemotherapy, in NPC. PATIENTS AND METHODS Patients with nonkeratinizing recurrent/metastatic NPC who progressed on/after platinum-based chemotherapy were enrolled. Spartalizumab was dosed 400 mg once every 4 weeks, and chemotherapy was received per investigator's choice. RESULTS Patients were randomized to receive either spartalizumab (82 patients) or chemotherapy (40 patients). The most common spartalizumab treatment-related adverse events were fatigue (10.3%) and pruritus (9.3%). Median PFS in the spartalizumab arm was 1.9 months versus 6.6 months in the chemotherapy arm (P = 0.915). The overall response rate in the spartalizumab arm was 17.1% versus 35.0% in the chemotherapy arm. Median duration of response was 10.2 versus 5.7 months in the spartalizumab versus chemotherapy arms, respectively. Median overall survival was 25.2 and 15.5 months in the spartalizumab and chemotherapy arms, respectively. Tumor RNA sequencing showed a correlation between response to spartalizumab and IFNγ, LAG-3, and TIM-3 gene expression. CONCLUSIONS Spartalizumab demonstrated a safety profile consistent with other anti-PD-1 antibodies. The primary endpoint of median PFS was not met; however, median overall survival and median duration of response were longer with spartalizumab compared with chemotherapy.

Abstract
PURPOSE HER2/neu is overexpressed in up to 30% of gastroesophageal adenocarcinomas (GEA) and linked to poor prognosis. Recombinant mAbs to treat HER2/neu-overexpressing cancers are effective with limitations, including resistance and toxicity. Therefore, we developed a therapeutic B-cell epitope vaccine (IMU-131/HER-Vaxx) consisting of three fused B-cell epitopes from the HER2/neu extracellular domain coupled to CRM197 and adjuvanted with Montanide. This phase Ib study aimed to evaluate the optimal/safe dose leading to immunogenicity and clinical responses (https//clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/show/NCT02795988). PATIENTS AND METHODS A total of 14 patients with HER2/neu-overexpressing GEA were enrolled, and dose escalation (10, 30, 50 μg) was performed in three cohorts (C). Immunogenicity was evaluated by HER2-specific Abs and cellular responses, clinical responses by CT scans according to RECIST version 1.1. RESULTS IMU-131 was safe without vaccine-related significant local/systemic reactions or serious adverse events. A total of 11 of 14 patients were evaluable for changes in tumor size and vaccine-specific immune responses. One patient showed complete, 5 partial responses, and 4 stable diseases as their best response. HER2-specific IgG levels were dose dependent. In contrast to patients in C1 and C2, all patients in C3 mounted substantial HER2-specific Ab levels. In addition, cellular vaccine responses, such as Th1-biased cytokine ratios and reduced regulatory T cell numbers, were generated. Progression-free survival was prolonged in C3, correlating with the vaccine-specific humoral and cellular responses. CONCLUSIONS IMU-131 was well tolerated and safe. The induced HER2-specific Abs and cellular responses were dose dependent and correlated with clinical responses. The highest dose (50 μg) was recommended for further evaluation in a phase II trial, with chemotherapy + IMU-131 or chemotherapy alone, which is currently ongoing.

Abstract
PURPOSE This study (NCT02083354) assessed the efficacy and safety of dabrafenib plus trametinib in East Asian patients with advanced BRAF V600-mutant cutaneous melanoma. METHOD Overall, 77 patients of East Asian origin (including 61 from Mainland China) with unresectable or metastatic BRAF V600-mutant cutaneous melanoma were enrolled. Prior treatment was allowed except with BRAF/MEK inhibitors. Patients received dabrafenib 150 mg twice daily and trametinib 2 mg once daily. The primary end-point was objective response rate (ORR) using Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumours 1.1. Secondary end-points were duration of response (DOR), progression-free survival (PFS), overall survival (OS), pharmacokinetics and safety. RESULTS At data cutoff (February 23, 2018; median follow-up, 8.3 months), treatment was ongoing in 36 patients (47%). The median age was 52 years; 32% of patients had elevated lactate dehydrogenase, and 84% had received prior systemic therapy. ORR was 61% (95% confidence interval: 49.2-72.0), with four patients (5%) achieving complete response. Median DOR and PFS were 11.3 and 7.9 months, respectively. Median OS was not reached. The most common adverse event (AE) of any grade was pyrexia (56%). Grade ≥III AEs occurred in 29 patients (38%). The most common grade ≥III AEs were pyrexia (8%) and anaemia (6%). AEs led to permanent discontinuation in five patients (6.5%). Mean Cmax for dabrafenib and trametinib was 3560 and 11.5 ng/mL (day 1) and 2680 and 27.1 ng/mL (day 15), respectively. CONCLUSION These results support the efficacy and tolerability of dabrafenib in combination with trametinib in East Asian patients with unresectable or metastatic BRAF V600-mutant cutaneous melanoma.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Chemoradiotherapy (CRT) with high cumulative doses (CDs) of cisplatin has been considered the standard of care for non-metastatic nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC). However, given most patients' inability to tolerate high CDs due to cisplatin-related toxicities, the optimal CD of cisplatin during CRT remains undetermined. METHODS Patients with non-metastatic NPC who received CRT with cisplatin between 2007 and 2017 were identified through the Thai head and neck cancer multicenter database and then categorized according to cisplatin CD (mg/m2) received. All complications and cisplatin-related toxicities during CRT were recorded. RESULTS We identified 779 non-metastatic NPC patients receiving low (≤150; n = 97), intermediate (151-250; n = 411), and high (> 250; n = 271) CDs of cisplatin. Low CD patients had significantly lower mean actual radiation dose (p < 0.001) and more radiotherapy delay (p = 0.010), while intermediate CD patients had the least hospitalization (p < 0.001). Overall, 39.3% of the patients experienced cisplatin-related toxicity, which was associated with poor overall survival (OS) (p = 0.001). Acute kidney injury was observed in 7% in all patients, which was highest among low CD patients (15.5%; p = 0.002). Intermediate CD patients had significantly longer median OS than the low and high groups (64 vs. 49.8 vs. 53.2, respectively; p = 0.015). Univariate, but not multivariate, analysis showed that CD of cisplatin was significantly associated with OS. CONCLUSION CD of cisplatin during CRT was not an independent prognostic factor for OS. An intermediate CD induced minimal toxicity without compromising survival and should be considered the optimal CD. Nonetheless, a randomized phase 3 study evaluating the optimal CD of cisplatin is warranted.

Abstract
e18560 Background: CN remains a frequent occurrence despite receiving standard fluid hydration, particularly for head and neck cancer patients undergoing CCRT. We aimed to investigate whether adding ORS to short hydration regimen can reduce CN. Methods: We conducted a randomized open-label controlled trial in patients with head and neck cancer receiving CCRT with 3-weekly cisplatin (≥ 60 mg/m²). Eligible patients were randomly assigned to receive short hydration regimen (2000 mL of normal saline on day 1) alone or in combination with 2000 mL of ORS on days -1, 2 and 3 of each cycle. All patients were instructed to drink at least 2000 mL of fluid. The primary end point was the incidence of ≥ gr 1 creatinine (Cr) elevation on day 8. The planned sample size was 160 (80 patients each arm). Results: Thirty-five patients in ORS group and 34 patients in control group (43% of planned sample size) were enrolled. Baseline characteristics were balanced between the two groups, except more patients in ORS group underwent surgery (35.3% vs. 22.9%), and had less feeding tube prophylaxis (76.5% vs. 88.6%), although there were not statistically significant. The mean dose of cisplatin on day 1 was significantly higher in ORS group (91.2 mg/m2 vs. 85.1 mg/m2, p=0.01). There was no difference of volume of total fluid intake and toxicities between the two groups. Less percentage of patients in ORS group developed ≥ gr 1 Cr elevation as shown in the Table, although there were not statistically significant. Conclusions: Although our interim analysis showed no significant difference of CN between the groups, there was a trend that addition of ORS might prevent acute and chronic kidney injury secondary to cisplatin. The completed enrollment is warranted to confirm this early findings. Clinical trial information: TCTR20200207005 . [Table: see text]

Abstract
BACKGROUND Treatment options are limited for patients with recurrent or metastatic squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck (HNSCC) following progression after first-line platinum-based therapy, particularly in Asian countries. PATIENTS AND METHODS In this randomised, open-label, phase III trial, we enrolled Asian patients aged ≥18 years, with histologically or cytologically confirmed recurrent/metastatic HNSCC following first-line platinum-based therapy who were not amenable for salvage surgery or radiotherapy, and had an Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status of 0/1. Patients were randomised (2 : 1) to receive oral afatinib (40 mg/day) or intravenous methotrexate (40 mg/m2/week), stratified by ECOG performance status and prior EGFR-targeted antibody therapy. The primary end point was progression-free survival (PFS) assessed by an independent central review committee blinded to treatment allocation. RESULTS A total of 340 patients were randomised (228 afatinib; 112 methotrexate). After a median follow-up of 6.4 months, afatinib significantly decreased the risk of progression/death by 37% versus methotrexate (hazard ratio 0.63; 95% confidence interval 0.48-0.82; P = 0.0005; median 2.9 versus 2.6 months; landmark analysis at 12 and 24 weeks, 58% versus 41%, 21% versus 9%). Improved PFS was complemented by quality of life benefits. Objective response rate was 28% with afatinib and 13% with methotrexate. There was no significant difference in overall survival. The most common grade ≥3 drug-related adverse events were rash/acne (4% with afatinib versus 0% with methotrexate), diarrhoea (4% versus 0%), fatigue (1% versus 5%), anaemia (<1% versus 5%) and leukopenia (0% versus 5%). CONCLUSIONS Consistent with the phase III LUX-Head & Neck 1 trial, afatinib significantly improved PFS versus methotrexate, with a manageable safety profile. These results demonstrate the efficacy and feasibility of afatinib as a second-line treatment option for certain patients with recurrent or metastatic HNSCC.

Abstract
14 Background: “The South Thailand Insurgency” is burning violence in the deep south of Thailand. The insurgency which has been ongoing since 2004 has played out in the three southernmost districts of the country Pattani, Yala and Narathiwat and some area of Songkhla, so-called the “Red Zone”. The chronic terrorism had major affected on cancer service. Many cancer patients gave up on their lives due to struggle with the disease itself, financial constraints due to longstanding economic downturn and security concerns during travelling led to high loss to follow-up rate and treatment delay. We, an oncology service team working at Songklanagarind hospital, the only one cancer center served this area together with primary doctors and nurses in the Red Zone created a network and utilized an oncology-specific electronic consultation and referral system to make more efficient care. We reported its performance in 3 years period. Methods: Electronic consultation system (E-consult) was a web-based program developed to provide advice and facilitate the referral process in cancer care. Since October 2015, we prospectively surveyed the impact of this pilot project on the quality of service by counting waiting time, number of center visit until treatment, unnecessary referral avoidance, patient and potential cost saving compared to normal referral system. Results: E-consult reached out to 7 hospitals and 589 cancer patients successfully referred through E-consult. Among patients from the Red Zone, without E-consult, their average waiting time was 56.4 days, number of visit was 6.5 visits. The estimated financial burden was $758.8 per patient. After implementation of E-consult in 259 patients, average time to treatment was 41.5 days (p = 0.006) and a number of the counter visit was 2.3 visits (p < 0.001). Estimated financial burden could be reduced to $358.7(p < 0.001). Ultimately, we prevented 28 patients from unnecessary referral. Conclusions: In this special context the electronic referral system was helpful to improve medical access, timeliness to specialist care, saving the patients’ family time and resources. This model is widely applicable to oncology referral chain.

Abstract
Background/Aims Hepatitis B virus reactivation (HBVr) following chemotherapy (CMT) is well-known among hematologic malignancies, and screening recommendations are established. However, HBVr data in solid organ malignancy (SOM) patients are limited. This study aims to determine hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) screening rates, HBV prevalence, and the rate of significant hepatitis caused by HBVr in SOM patients undergoing CMT. Methods Based on the Oncology unit’s registration database from 2009–2013, we retrospectively reviewed records of all SOM patients ≥18 years undergoing CMT at Songklanagarind Hospital who were followed until death or ≥6 months after CMT sessions. Exclusion criteria included patients without baseline liver function tests (LFTs) and who underwent CMT before the study period. We obtained and analyzed baseline clinical characteristics, HBsAg screening, and LFT data during follow-up. Results Of 3,231 cases in the database, 810 were eligible. The overall HBsAg screening rate in the 5-year period was 27.7%. Screening rates were low from 2009–2012 (7.8–21%) and increased in 2013 to 82.9%. The prevalence of HBV among screened patients was 7.1%. Of those, 75% underwent prophylactic antiviral therapy. During the 6-month follow-up period, there were three cases of significant hepatitis caused by HBVr (4.2% of all significant hepatitis cases); all were in the unscreened group. Conclusions The prevalence of HBV in SOM patients undergoing CMT in our study was similar to the estimated prevalence in general Thai population, but the screening rate was quite low. Cases of HBVr causing significant hepatitis occurred in the unscreened group; therefore, HBV screening and treatment in SOM patients should be considered in HBV-endemic areas.

Abstract
Abstract
Background: Locally advanced SCCHN is associated with a high risk for local recurrence and distant metastases. Current treatment options include a combination of surgery, radiation therapy and chemotherapy to optimize the chances for long-term disease control and improved survival. As standard of care, patients are monitored after definitive local therapy for local recurrence and/or distant metastases. No effective systemic adjuvant treatment has been identified. Atezolizumab (atezo) is an anti-programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1) monoclonal antibody that restores anti-tumor immunity by preventing PD-L1 from binding to its receptors. Efficacy results from a cohort of 32 patients with recurrent/metastatic SCCHN in the Phase I PCD4989g study suggested that atezo offers promising clinical benefit in SCCHN. The objective of IMvoke010 (NCT03452137) is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of adjuvant treatment with atezo in comparison to placebo in patients with locally advanced SCCHN who are at high risk for disease recurrence or progression following definitive curative therapy.
Trial design: IMvoke010 is a global, double-blind, placebo-controlled, randomized Phase III trial currently enrolling patients who have completed definitive local/regional therapy for Stage III human papillomavirus (HPV)-positive oropharyngeal carcinoma or Stage IVA or IVB HPV-negative SCCHN involving the oral cavity, oropharynx, larynx or hypopharynx and are at high risk for disease recurrence or progression. Approximately 400 patients will be randomized 1:1 to receive placebo or atezo 1200 mg every 3 weeks for up to a year (≤ 16 cycles) or until unacceptable toxicity, disease recurrence or progression. Patients with nasopharyngeal carcinoma, metastatic disease or progressive disease during or at completion of definitive local therapy will be excluded. Primary endpoints are independent review facility-assessed event-free survival (EFS) and overall survival. Key secondary endpoints include investigator-assessed EFS, safety and patient reported outcomes. Exploratory biomarkers will also be assessed.

Abstract
Abstract
Background: HER2/neu is overexpressed in 15-25% of gastric cancer patients and associated with poor prognosis. Alternative treatments to monoclonal antibodies are needed due to cost and global availability issues of mAbs. Thus a B-cell peptide vaccine (IMU-131) was developed, consisting of 3 fused B-cell epitopes (p467) from the HER2/neu extracellular domain coupled to CRM197 applied with the adjuvant Montanide. The current study evaluated the optimal and safe vaccine dose leading to immunogenicity and clinical responses.
Material & Methods: In an open-label multicenter Phase Ib trial in SE-Asia and Eastern Europe, 14 patients with HER2/neu overexpressing (++/+++) gastric or gastroesophageal junction adenocarcinoma were recruited to receive 3 injections of IMU-131 (days 0, 14, 35) in combination with chemotherapy (CT) every 21 days. Dose escalation with 10 µg, 30 µg and 50 µg was performed in 3 cohorts. Safety, immunogenicity and clinical responses were evaluated.
Results: No SAEs related to administration of IMU-131 were reported. Eleven of 14 patients were evaluable for vaccine-specific immune responses and 10 for tumor growth assessment. Higher p467- and Her-2 specific IgG levels were observed in cohort 2 (30 µg/dose) compared to cohort 1 (10 µg/dose). Two of five patients in cohort 2 showed minimal antibody titers. In contrast, all patients in cohort 3 (50µg/dose) responded to the vaccine with equally high antibody levels. Response rate was an exploratory endpoint and of 10 evaluable patients, 5 patients showed partial response and 4 patients showed stable disease. In cohort 3 the high antibody levels correlated with clinical response, while in cohort 2 only moderate correlations between humoral and clinical responses were observed. In cohort 1 partial response did not correlate with Ab levels, but rather with a high percentage of CD8 T-cells and increased inflammatory cytokine levels (high IFN-γ and TNF-α/IL-10 ratio).
Conclusions: The vaccine was well tolerated and safe with antibody responses at the highest dose (50 µg) showing a strong correlation with clinical responses. Thus, a dose of 50 µg was recommended for further evaluation in Phase II, featuring two arms of either IMU 131 plus CT or CT alone. We propose that this vaccine might be of significant medical benefit and further trials are warranted.

Abstract
6024 Background: In a previous global phase III trial (LUX-Head & Neck 1), second-line (2L) afatinib significantly improved PFS vs methotrexate (MTX) in pts with R/M HNSCC. Here, we compared efficacy/safety of 2L afatinib vs MTX in Asian pts with R/M HNSCC. Methods: Pts progressing on/after platinum therapy were randomized (2:1) to 40 mg/day afatinib (feeding tube or oral) or 40 mg/m2/week iv MTX. Primary endpoint was PFS by independent review. Secondary endpoints were OS, ORR, and patient-reported outcomes. Results: 340 pts were randomized (afatinib 228, MTX 112). Median (range) duration of treatment (Tx) was 3.0 ( < 0.1–35.9) and 1.4 ( < 0.1–8.8) mos, respectively. Afatinib significantly decreased the risk of progression or death by 37% compared with MTX (HR 0.63; 95% CI: 0.48, 0.82 p = 0.0005, median PFS, 2.9 vs 2.6 mos; landmark analysis at 12 and 24 wks, 58 vs 41%, 21 vs 9%). There was no significant difference in OS (HR 0.88; 95% CI: 0.68, 1.13; median 6.9 vs 6.4 mos). ORR was 28% with afatinib and 13% with MTX (OR 2.8; 95% CI: 1.5, 5.2, p = 0.016). More pts had clinically relevant improvements in global health status/quality of life (GHS/QoL; 40 vs 23%, p < 0.01), swallowing (34 vs 18%, p = 0.01) and pain (34 vs 25%, p = 0.22) with afatinib vs MTX. Post-baseline change in GHS/QoL score was more favorable with afatinib (p < 0.001). Treatment-related adverse events (TRAEs; all/grade ≥3) were reported in 89/16% and 67/23% pts with afatinib and MTX. The most common grade ≥3 TRAEs were rash/acne (4%), diarrhea (4%), and stomatitis (3%) with afatinib, and anemia, leukopenia, and fatigue (all 5%) with MTX. Fatal AEs were reported in 23 and 11% pts with afatinib and MTX. Two ( hypoglycemia, pneumonitis/lung infiltration) and 4 pts had fatal AEs considered related to Tx with afatinib and MTX. 11% and 17% pts discontinued Tx due to TRAEs. Conclusions: LUX-Head & Neck 3 achieved its primary endpoint. Two randomized phase III trials have now demonstrated clinical benefit with 2L afatinib vs MTX. Safety data were consistent with the known tolerability profiles of afatinib and MTX. Clinical trial information: NCT01856478.

Abstract
6572 Background: Cervical cancer is one of the most preventable cancers, not only presence of effective HPV vaccination but also simple and robust screening methods such as Pap test. Nevertheless, there were some women at risk whom were unable to access screening cause of incarceration. Hence, in 2018, together with Songkhla Woman Correctional Institute, we launched a cancer screening campaign including clinical breast exam, mobile mammography and Pap test. This is the first report of cervical cancer screening result demonstrated the essential of cervical cancer screening in these disadvantaged women. Methods: Due to the regulation of the jail, we had to limited bring-in tools, allowed staffs and operating-time, therefore we used a pre-screening questionnaire, included 5 items: HIV infection, number of partner, parity, age at first sexual intercourse and number of term baby and each of them scored as 2 for “high-risk” and 1 for “low-risk”, total score ranged from 5 to 10. We ranked and chose the volunteer participants, who have HIV infection and/or with highest risk score, to undergo Pap test. Results: Of the 1328 questionnaire responders, Their mean risk score was 7.3 (SD= 1.3). HIV infected participants number were 34 (2.5%). Of the 200 screened-participants, None of them had ever received HPV vaccination before, and all participant did not have Pap test since imprisonment. (mean 53.8 m, range 13-236 m, SD 36.7). Their score ranged between 8 to 10, 42.5% of them had score level 8, 54.5% had score level 9 and 3% had score level 10. Mean age was 37.7 years. 10 (5%) of them had abnormal Pap test; 1 of them showed ASC-US, 1 was LSIL, 1 was ASC-H, 5 of them showed HSIL and 2 of them showed squamous cell carcinoma and small round cell carcinoma. Final histopathological test resulted in 6 of cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN) I, metaplasia and cervicitis, 3 were diagnose CIN III and 1 diagnosed microinvasive carcinoma. Incidence of cervical cancer was higher than normal population in this region. (0.5% vs 0.02%). Conclusions: Incarcerated women were at high risk of cervical cancer compared to normal population. Unfortunately, in many places, they were unconditionally inaccessible to the cervical cancer preventive healthcare system for years. Social should increase awareness to decrease this health disparity.

Abstract
4030 Background: Gastric cancer is the 5th most common cancer and the 3rd leading cause of cancer deaths. HER2/neu is overexpressed in 15% - 25% of patients with gastric cancer. Monoclonal antibodies against HER2/neu are effective but alternatives are needed due to cost and global availability. IMU-131 is a B-cell peptide vaccine composed of a fusion of 3 epitopes from the extracellular domain of HER2/neu conjugated to CRM197 with the adjuvant Montanide. Polyclonal antibodies against IMU-131 peptides elicit antitumor activity in vitro and a phase I study demonstrated safety and immunogenicity in Her-2 +/++ breast cancer patients. Methods: IMU-131 was given to patients with HER2/neu overexpressing gastric or gastroesophageal junction (GEJ) adenocarcinoma in an international open-label Phase 1b dose escalation trial performed in 14 Asian and Eastern European sites assessing safety, tolerability, and immunogenicity. Each patient received IMU-131 on Days 0, 14, and 35, accompanied by cisplatin and 5-fluorouracil or capecitabine every 21 days. Results: 14 patients were enrolled with advanced stage IIIb or IV with 10 HER2 overexpressing tumors (7 x HER2+++, 3 x HER2++ FISH positive) and 4 HER2++ expressing tumors. Mean age was 57 yo (range of 21 - 79) with ECOG scores of 0 or 1 in 7 patients each. There were 9 Asian and 5 Caucasian patients with 5 females and 9 males. Dose levels were 0.1, 0.3 and 0.5 mg with 3, 6, and 5 patients receiving those dose levels each. 11 patients received all 3 doses with 3 patients who received only 2 doses due to disease progression and 2 patients received a dose on day 182. Of the 14 patients dosed 11 were evaluable for tumor progression at day 56 and later. Of those patients, the best response was 1 CR, 4 PR,5 SD and 1 PD. In the 0.1 mg dose group the best response was 1 CR and 2 SD, with 2 PR, 2 SD and 1 PD in the 0.3 mg group and 2 PR and 1 SD in the 0.5 mg group. In patients with HER2 overexpression there was 1 CR, 4 PR, 2 SD and 1 PD, and in patients with HER2++ expression there was 3 SD. There were no SAEs related to IMU-131 and 1 patient had a mild injection site reaction. Conclusions: IMU-131 is a promising B-Cell vaccine against HER2. Further work in a controlled phase 2 trial is ongoing. Clinical trial information: NCT02795988.

Abstract
Background Co-administration of multiple antiemetics that inhibit several molecular pathways involved in emesis is required to optimize chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting (CINV) control in patients receiving highly emetogenic chemotherapy (HEC). NEPA, a fixed combination of a highly selective NK1 receptor antagonist, netupitant (300 mg), and the pharmacologically distinct 5-HT3RA, palonosetron (PALO 0.50 mg), has shown superior CINV prevention compared with PALO in cisplatin and anthracycline/cyclophosphamide-based settings. This study is the first head-to-head comparison of NEPA versus an aprepitant (APR)/granisetron (GRAN) regimen. Patients and methods This randomized, double-blind phase III study conducted in Asia was designed with the primary objective to demonstrate non-inferiority of a single oral dose of NEPA compared with a 3-day oral APR/GRAN regimen in chemotherapy-naïve patients receiving cisplatin-based HEC. All patients also received oral dexamethasone (DEX) on days 1–4. The primary efficacy endpoint was complete response (CR: no emesis/no rescue medication) during the overall (0–120 h) phase. Non-inferiority was defined as a lower 95% CI greater than the non-inferiority margin set at − 10%. Secondary efficacy endpoints included no emesis, no rescue medication, and no significant nausea (NSN). Results Treatment groups were comparable for the 828 patients analyzed: predominantly male (71%); mean age 54.5 years; ECOG 0–1 (98%); lung cancer (58%). NEPA demonstrated non-inferiority to APR/GRAN for overall CR [NEPA 73.8% versus APR/GRAN 72.4%, 95% CI (−4.5%, 7.5%)]. No emesis [NEPA 75.0% versus APR/GRAN 74.0%, 95% CI (−4.8%, 6.9%)] and NSN rates [NEPA 75.7% versus APR/GRAN 70.4%, 95% CI (−0.6%, 11.4%)] were similar between groups, but significantly more NEPA patients did not take rescue medication [NEPA 96.6% versus APR/GRAN 93.5%, 95% CI (0.2%, 6.1%)]. NEPA was well tolerated with a similar safety profile to APR/GRAN. Conclusions In this first study comparing NK1RA regimens and DEX, NEPA administered only on day 1 was non-inferior to a 3-day oral APR/GRAN regimen in preventing CINV associated with HEC.

Abstract
TPS176 Background: Gastric cancer is the 5th most frequently diagnosed cancer and the 3rd leading cause of cancer deaths. HER2/neu is overexpressed in 15% to 25% of patients with gastric cancer and associated with a poor prognosis. Monoclonal antibodies against HER2/neu have been shown to be effective but alternative treatments are needed due to cost and global availability issues. IMU-131 is a B-cell peptide vaccine composed of 3 B cell epitopes derived from the extracellular domain of HER2/neu. Polyclonal antibodies against IMU-131 peptides binding 3 separate regions (DIII, IV) of HER2/neu have been shown to elicit antitumor activity in vitro and a phase I study demonstrated safety and immunogenicity in Her-2 +/++ metastatic breast cancer patients. Fusion of the single peptides into a hybrid peptide conjugated to CRM197 in conjunction with the adjuvant Montanide (P467-CRM-Montanide) improved formulation and stability of the vaccine. With the present Phase 1b/2 trial performed in patients with HER2/neu overexpressing gastric or gastroesophageal junction (GEJ) adenocarcinoma, we hypothesized that administration of IMU-131 in addition to chemotherapy is safe and immunogenic, and will prolong survival and may delay tumor progression and/or reduce tumor burden. Methods: This study is an international open-label multicenter study performed in 16 Asian and Eastern European sites with a maximum of 18 patients enrolled in Phase 1b. This dose escalation study is designed to assess safety, tolerability, immunogenicity and recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D) of IMU-131. Each patient is administered three injections of IMU-131, at a single dose level on Days 0, 14, and 35, accompanied by chemotherapy cycles of cisplatin and 5-fluorouracil or capecitabine every 21 days. The RP2D will be evaluated in the dose expansion Phase 2 study with 68 patients being enrolled. Results: The study is ongoing with the completion of the phase 1b portion in 4Q18. Conclusions: No conclusions can be drawn at this time. Clinical trial information: NCT02795988.

Abstract
PURPOSE In the phase III FLAURA study, third-generation epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) osimertinib significantly improved progression-free survival (PFS) versus standard-of-care (SoC) EGFR-TKI (gefitinib or erlotinib) in patients with previously untreated EGFR (exon 19 deletion or L858R) mutation-positive advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Interim overall survival (OS) data were encouraging, but not formally statistically significant at current maturity (25%). Here we report exploratory postprogression outcomes. PATIENTS AND METHODS Patients were randomized 1:1 to receive osimertinib (80 mg orally, once daily) or SoC EGFR-TKI (gefitinib 250 mg or erlotinib 150 mg, orally, once daily). Treatment beyond disease progression was allowed if the investigator judged ongoing clinical benefit. Patients receiving SoC EGFR-TKI could cross over to receive osimertinib after independently confirmed objective disease progression with documented postprogression T790M-positive mutation status. RESULTS At data cutoff (June 12, 2017), 138 of 279 (49%) and 213 of 277 (77%) patients discontinued osimertinib and SoC EGFR-TKI, respectively, of whom 82 (59%) and 129 (61%), respectively, started a subsequent treatment. Median time to discontinuation of any EGFR-TKI or death was 23.0 months [95% confidence interval (CI), 19.5-not calculable (NC)] in the osimertinib arm and 16.0 months (95% CI, 14.8-18.6) in the SoC EGFR-TKI arm. Median second PFS was not reached (95% CI, 23.7-NC) in the osimertinib arm and 20.0 months (95% CI, 18.2-NC) in the SoC EGFR-TKI arm [hazard ratio (HR), 0.58; 95% CI, 0.44-0.78; P = 0.0004]. CONCLUSIONS All postprogression endpoints showed consistent improvement with osimertinib versus SoC EGFR-TKI, providing further confidence in the interim OS data.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Osimertinib is an oral, third-generation, irreversible epidermal growth factor receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitor (EGFR-TKI) that selectively inhibits both EGFR-TKI-sensitizing and EGFR T790M resistance mutations. We compared osimertinib with standard EGFR-TKIs in patients with previously untreated, EGFR mutation-positive advanced non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC). METHODS In this double-blind, phase 3 trial, we randomly assigned 556 patients with previously untreated, EGFR mutation-positive (exon 19 deletion or L858R) advanced NSCLC in a 1:1 ratio to receive either osimertinib (at a dose of 80 mg once daily) or a standard EGFR-TKI (gefitinib at a dose of 250 mg once daily or erlotinib at a dose of 150 mg once daily). The primary end point was investigator-assessed progression-free survival. RESULTS The median progression-free survival was significantly longer with osimertinib than with standard EGFR-TKIs (18.9 months vs. 10.2 months; hazard ratio for disease progression or death, 0.46; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.37 to 0.57; P<0.001). The objective response rate was similar in the two groups: 80% with osimertinib and 76% with standard EGFR-TKIs (odds ratio, 1.27; 95% CI, 0.85 to 1.90; P=0.24). The median duration of response was 17.2 months (95% CI, 13.8 to 22.0) with osimertinib versus 8.5 months (95% CI, 7.3 to 9.8) with standard EGFR-TKIs. Data on overall survival were immature at the interim analysis (25% maturity). The survival rate at 18 months was 83% (95% CI, 78 to 87) with osimertinib and 71% (95% CI, 65 to 76) with standard EGFR-TKIs (hazard ratio for death, 0.63; 95% CI, 0.45 to 0.88; P=0.007 [nonsignificant in the interim analysis]). Adverse events of grade 3 or higher were less frequent with osimertinib than with standard EGFR-TKIs (34% vs. 45%). CONCLUSIONS Osimertinib showed efficacy superior to that of standard EGFR-TKIs in the first-line treatment of EGFR mutation-positive advanced NSCLC, with a similar safety profile and lower rates of serious adverse events.
