TPS266 Background: Radiation therapy (RT), plus androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) with a luteinizing hormone releasing hormone analogue (LHRHA), is standard of care for men with very high-risk localized prostate cancer (PC), or with very high- risk features and persistent PSA after radical prostatectomy (RP). Despite this, incurable distant metastases develop within 5 years in 15% of men with very high-risk features. Darolutamide is a structurally distinct oral androgen receptor antagonist with low blood-brain-barrier penetration, a demonstrated favorable safety profile and low potential for drug-drug interactions. Our aim is to determine the efficacy of adding darolutamide to ADT and RT in the setting of either primary definitive therapy, or adjuvant therapy for very high-risk PC. Methods: This study is a randomized (1:1) phase III placebo-controlled, double-blind trial for men planned for RT who have very high-risk localized PC; or very high-risk features with PSA persistence or rise within one year following RP. The trial will be stratified by: RP; use of adjuvant docetaxel; pelvic nodal involvement. 1100 participants will be randomized to darolutamide 600 mg or placebo twice daily for 96 weeks. Participants will receive LHRHA for 96 weeks, plus RT starting week 8-24 from randomisation. Participants are allowed nonsteroidal antiandrogen (up to 90 days) in addition to LHRHA up until randomisation. Early treatment with up to 6 cycles of docetaxel completed at least 4 weeks prior to RT is permitted. The primary endpoint is metastasis-free survival (ICECaP-validated), with secondary endpoints overall survival, PC-specific survival, PSA-progression free survival, time to subsequent hormonal therapy, time to castration-resistance, frequency and severity of adverse events, health related quality of life, fear of recurrence. Tertiary endpoints include incremental cost-effectiveness, and identification of prognostic and/or predictive biomarkers of treatment response, safety and resistance to study treatment. Clinical trial information: NCT04136353.

TPS385 Background: Radiation therapy (RT), plus androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) with a luteinising hormone releasing hormone analogue (LHRHA) for at least one year, is standard of care for men with very high-risk localised prostate cancer (PC), or with very high-risk features and persistent PSA after radical prostatectomy (RP). Despite this, incurable distant metastases develop within 5 years in 15% of men with very high risk features. Darolutamide is an androgen receptor antagonist with favourable tolerability. Our aim is to determine the efficacy of adding darolutamide to ADT and RT given in the setting of either primary definitive therapy (RP or RT), or adjuvant therapy for very high-risk PC.

TPS156 Background: Adjuvant ADT with an LHRH analog (LHRHA) given before, during and after radiotherapy (RT) is standard of care for high risk localised prostate cancer (PC). Enzalutamide improves overall survival (OS) in castration-resistant, metastatic prostate cancer. We hypothesized that the addition of enzalutamide to adjuvant ADT and RT will improve outcomes. The aim is to determine the effects of enzalutamide versus a conventional non-steroidal anti-androgen (NSAA) as part of neoadjuvant and adjuvant ADT in men undergoing RT for high risk, localized PC. Methods: DESIGN: Open label, randomised, phase 3 trial including ANZ, USA, UK, Ireland and Europe. ENDPOINTS: OS (primary), cause-specific survival, PSA progression free survival (PFS), clinical PFS, time to subsequent hormonal therapy, time to castration-resistant disease (PCWG2 criteria), metastasis free survival (MFS), adverse events and health-related quality of life (HRQOL). CORRELATIVE OBJECTIVES: identification of prognostic/predictive biomarkers from archival tumour tissue and serial blood samples. SAMPLE SIZE: 800 participants with a minimum follow-up of 5.5 yrs is designed to give 80% power to detect 33% reduction in the hazard of death assuming 5-year survival rate of 76% amongst controls. TREATMENT: Enzalutamide 160mg daily for 24 months versus conventional NSAA for 6 months. All participants receive LHRHA for 24 months, and RT starting about week 16 delivered as 78Gy in 39#, or 46Gy in 23# plus brachytherapy (nodal RT optional for N0, mandatory for N1). ASSESSMENTS: Baseline, then every 8 weeks until year 2, then 3-4 monthly until year 5, 6-monthly until year 7, then annually. Imaging with CT/MRI and bone scan at baseline, PSA progression, then 6 monthly until re-initiation of ADT, when PCWG2 criteria for CRPC are met and then 3 monthly until evidence of metastases. 623 participants recruited from 61 sites as of 16 October 2017. ENZARAD is an investigator-initiated cooperative group trial led by ANZUP Cancer Trials Group with funds and product from Astellas. Clinical trial information: NCT02446444.

18032 Background: The addition of cetuximab can increase the efficacy of chemotherapy for advanced NSCLC. Concomitant cetuximab and RT is superior to RT alone for locally advanced squamous cell head & neck carcinoma. The SCRATCH study (cohort I) is a phase I study to assess the safety of synchronous cetuximab and radical RT in patients with Stage III NSCLC. Methods: Cohort I will contain 12 patients with inoperable stage III NSCLC. Inclusion criteria are performance status 0–1, adequate organ function, and disease encompassable within a radical RT volume. Exclusion criteria are previous malignancy, thoracic RT or treatment with EGFR targeted therapy. Patients receive platinum-based induction chemotherapy, followed by weekly intravenous cetuximab (initial dose 400mg/m2; maintenance dose 250mg/m2) and concomitant RT (64Gy/32fractions/45days). The primary end-point is toxicity. NCI Common Toxicity Criteria (CTC) V3.0 assessments are performed weekly during radiotherapy, and at regular follow-up visits. Results: Data from the first 9 patients is available. 2 patients stopped receiving cetuximab early due to toxicity. 1 experienced grade 3 fatigue following the initial dose, and the other declined further treatment after developing grade 2 skin toxicity. 2 patients have died, 1 from disease progression and 1 from thromboembolic disease. Both deaths occurred between months 2 and 4 post RT and were not attributed to the cetuximab therapy. Of the 7 living patients, 2 have survived 1 year (measured from the first day of induction chemotherapy). The maximum NCI CTC V3.0 scores are summarised in the table below. Conclusions: The results suggest that the early and late toxicities of synchronous cetuximab and radical RT are acceptable. Data on all 12 patients will be available by June 2007. SCRATCH Study cohorts II-IV follow on and will recruit sequentially. They will assess the safety of adding concomitant cisplatin (±vinorelbine) to cetuximab and radical RT.
