Background: The PRIMA/ENGOT-OV26/GOG-3012 (NCT02655016) trial was amended to prospectively evaluate the safety and efficacy of an individualized starting dose (ISD) regimen of niraparib for first-line maintenance therapy in patients with newly diagnosed advanced ovarian cancer. Methods: In the phase 3 PRIMA trial, patients with newly diagnosed advanced ovarian cancer with a complete/partial response to first-line platinum-based chemotherapy (N = 733) were initially treated with a fixed starting dose (FSD) regimen of 300 mg every day. Subsequently, the protocol was amended so newly enrolled patients received an ISD: 200 mg every day in patients with baseline body weight < 77 kg or baseline platelet count < 150,000/mu L, and 300 mg every day in all other patients. Efficacy and safety outcomes were assessed by starting dose. Results: Overall, 475 (64.8%) patients were assigned to an FSD (niraparib, n = 317; placebo, n = 158) and 258 (35.2%) were assigned to an ISD (niraparib, n = 170; placebo, n = 88). Efficacy in patients who received FSD or ISD was similar for the overall (FSD hazard ratio [HR], 0.59 [95% CI, 0.46-0.76] vs. ISD HR, 0.69 [95% CI, 0.48-0.98]) and the homologous recombination-deficient (FSD HR, 0.44 [95% CI, 0.30-0.64] vs. ISD HR, 0.39 [95% CI, 0.22-0.72]) populations. In patients with low body weight/platelet count, rates of grades =3 and 4 hematologic treatment-emergent adverse events, dose interruptions, and dose reductions were lower for those who received ISD than for those who received FSD. Conclusions: In PRIMA, similar dose intensity, similar efficacy, and improved safety were observed with the ISD compared with the FSD regimen.

International audience; Objective > Despite an increasing number of therapeutic indications, there are no specific recommendations regarding the management of PARP inhibitors other than what is specified in the SmPC of each substance. A Delphi French consensus was conducted to establish practical guidelines to meet the needs identified by healthcare professionals and patients. Method > Following the Delphi method, statements to optimize PARP inhibitor management were drafted by a multidisciplinary Steering Committee made up of 17 experts. These statements were submitted to the independent and anonymous vote of clinicians involved in treating patients on PARP inhibitors. Results > This article presents 52 statements on the following topics: initiation and treatment; management of adverse events (hematological effects, gastrointestinal effects, renal effects, pulmonary effects, cutaneous effects, hypertension, insomnia, fatigue, dizziness); special popu-lations and situations; communication with the patient; adherence. Forty-nine statements obtained voter consensus after 3 voting rounds. A hematologist and a nephrologist supplemented this task by drafting an expert opinion on the risk of occurrence of secondary leukemia and nephrological toxicity. Conclusions > This paper is the first Delphi consensus on the practical management of PARP inhibitors. The pragmatic recommendations resulting from this paper should make it possible to manage the side effects of PARP inhibitors better and thus prevent early treatment discontinua-tion and improve patient adherence by preserving quality of life.

Purpose:In patients with ovarian cancer receiving neoadjuvant chemotherapy, the first-line treatment success will depend on both the tumor-primary chemosensitivity and the completeness of interval debulking surgery (IDS). The modeled CA-125 ELIMination rate constant K (KELIM), calculated with the CA-125 longitudinal kinetics during the first 100 chemotherapy days, is a validated early marker of tumor chemosensitivity. The objective was to investigate the role of the chemosensitivity relative to the success of first-line medical–surgical treatment.Experimental Design:The CA-125 concentrations were prospectively measured in the randomized phase II trial CHIVA (NCT01583322, carboplatin–paclitaxel regimen ± nintedanib, and IDS, n = 188 patients). The KELIM predictive value regarding the tumor response rate, likelihood of complete IDS, risk of subsequent platinum-resistant relapse (PtRR), progression-free survival (PFS), and overall survival (OS) was assessed using univariate and multivariate tests.Results:The data from 134 patients were analyzed. KELIM was an independent and major predictor of subsequent PtRR risk, and of survivals. The final logistic regression model, including KELIM [OR = 0.13; 95% confidence interval (CI), 0.03–0.49] and complete IDS (no vs. yes, OR = 0.30; 95% CI, 0.11–0.76) highlights the preponderant role of chemosensitivity on the success of the first-line treatment. In patients with highly chemosensitive diseases, the patient prognosis was driven more by the chemotherapy-induced antitumor effects than by the surgery.Conclusions:The tumor-primary chemosensitivity, assessed by the modeled CA-125 KELIM calculated during neoadjuvant chemotherapy (http://www.biomarker-kinetics.org/CA-125-neo), may be a major parameter to consider for decision-making regarding IDS attempt, and selecting patients for treatments meant to reverse the primary chemoresistance.See related commentary by May and Oza, p. 4432

There are limited treatment options for ovarian cancer patients with early relapse after platinum chemotherapy. In preclinical studies, we previously demonstrated the promising activity of ABT-737, a Bcl-2/Bcl-xWe conducted a prospective multicenter single-arm phase II study to assess the efficacy of Navitoclax (orally available ABT-737 analogue) monotherapy in 46 heavily pretreated (2-12 lines, median = 4) patients with high-grade serous platinum-resistant ovarian tumors. Navitoclax was administered at the daily dose of 150 mg during a lead-in period (7-14 days) and then increased to 250 mg daily in the absence of dose-limiting thrombocytopenia (G3). Progression-free survival (PFS) based on RECIST v1.1 criteria was the primary endpoint. Analysis of efficacy according to the expression of Bcl-2 family proteins in tumor biopsies was also planned.The 3-month PFS was 22.7% [Navitoclax monotherapy had poor activity that was not correlated with the expression of Bim, Mcl-1 and P-ERK, without unacceptable toxicity.Clinicaltrials.gov identifier: NCT02591095.

Background: Current standards for toxicity reporting do not fully capture the impact of adverse events (AEs) on patients’ quality of life (QoL). This study aimed to evaluate the association between toxicity and QoL by using toxicity scores that take into account CTCAE grade grouping and AE duration and cumulation. Methods: Analyses were performed on the AURELIA trial dataset, including 361 patients with platinum-resistant ovarian cancer treated with chemotherapy alone or with bevacizumab. Global and physical functioning QoL were issued from the EORTC QoL Questionnaire-Core 30 (QLQ-C30), collected at baseline and 8/9 and 16/18 weeks after treatment initiation. Four toxicity scores were computed: the total number of AEs, multiplied by their grade and not, and the cumulative duration of AEs, weighted by their grade and not. Each score included all AEs or only grade 3/4 nonlaboratory or treatment-related AEs. The relationship between toxicity scores and QoL was assessed through linear mixed regression. Results: We found that 171 (47.5%) and 43 (11.9%) patients experienced at least one grade 3 or 4 AE, respectively, whereas 113 (31.4%) experienced grade 2 AEs only. Physical QoL was negatively associated with all toxicity scores when computed with all grades of AEs (all PPConclusions: In this analysis of patients with platinum-resistant ovarian cancer, toxicity scores based on the cumulative number of AEs, modulated or not by grade, were more effective at predicting QoL changes than those based on AE duration. Toxicity impact on QoL was better reflected when grade 2 AEs were taken into account together with grade 3/4 AEs, whatever their treatment imputability, and when laboratory AEs were excluded.

Background Hypersensitivity reactions (HSRs) to platinum salts (PS) and taxanes (TX) are a challenge to cancer management. Allergy evaluation based on skin tests (ST) and graded challenges can provide a diagnosis of an allergy to a suspected drug and indicate possible treatment with alternative same-class drugs. Objective This study aimed to estimate the negative predictive value of ST in the diagnosis of HSRs to TX and PS. Methods This multicenter study prospectively enrolled patients with a suspected HSR to PS and TX. ST were performed for chemotherapy, drugs of the same pharmacological class, and other agents (latex or cotreatments). For patients with negative ST, a graded challenge was performed by the cancer teams trained in allergy management. Results A total of 119 consecutive patients were included during a 6-year period. ST results were positive for 58% of the cohort: for TX in 7 patients and for PS in 62 patients. Other agents were responsible for 4.2% of cases. Skin cross-reactivity was 50% for TX and 30% for PS. A graded challenge was performed in 14 patients for TX and in 50 patients for PS. Negative predictive values (NPVs) for ST were 100% for TX and 92% for PS, with NPVs for individuals PS of 100% for cisplatin, 89% for oxaliplatin, and 87% for carboplatin. Conclusions ST to PS or TX offered a high NPV, making allergy evaluation a key element in the management of patients with cancer. Graded challenges can be safely performed by oncology teams trained in anaphylaxis management.

Introduction/Background* Endometrial cancer (EC) patients (Pts) with advanced and recurrent disease relapse despite treatment with combination chemotherapy and have a short progression-free survival (PFS). Nintedanib (N) is a potent, orally available triple receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitor targeting VEGFR 1–3, PDGFR α/β, and FGFR 1–3. This study explored the preliminary efficacy of nintedanib in EC. Methodology The primary objective of this placebo-controlled, randomized study was to evaluate efficacy defined by median PFS of concomitant and maintenance N against placebo (P) in combination with chemotherapy. Patients with histologically confirmed stage IIIC2 or IVA & B or relapsed after adjuvant therapy for stage I-III disease; prior surgery; adjuvant chemotherapy; radiation therapy; hormonal therapy in metastatic setting; with measurable/non-measurable disease were permitted. Pts were randomized 1:1 to receive N 200mg or P, twice daily days 2–21 during chemotherapy (six cycles of Carboplatin (AUC5) and paclitaxel (175mg/m2) every 21 days) and continuously in maintenance phase. N/P was continued until disease progression, unacceptable toxicity, or withdrawal of consent. Stratification by stage of disease, prior adjuvant chemotherapy and measurable/non-measurable disease. This is an ENGOT Model A study. Clinical trial information: NCT02730416. Result(s)* 146 of 148 pts were eligible for PFS: 72N/74P; mean age 66yrs; FIGO stage III 18%, IV 42%, recurrent 40%; follow-up 30 mo. N added to chemotherapy did not improve PFS (119 events) as compared to chemotherapy plus P: median for N 8.3 vs. for P 7.2 mo; hazard ratio (HR) adjusted for stratification factors 1.03; 95% confidence interval (CI),[0.71 to 1.48]; p0.879. Median overall survival (85 events) for N 20 vs. for P 22 mo; HR: 1.10; CI: 0.72–1.69; p0.665. Treatment-emerged grade 3–4 adverse events were higher in N vs P arm: liver function tests 13%/0%; diarrhea 12%/6%; neutropenia 21%/14%; asthenia 4%/1%. Patient-reported outcomes will be reported. Conclusion* Addition of nintedanib to chemotherapy did not improve PFS nor OS. This regimen cannot be recommended to undergo further testing in a phase III trial.

Introduction/Background* As stated by ESGO-ESMO, there is a need for indicators of chemotherapy efficacy in ovarian carcinoma patients treated in first-line setting (Colombo et al, IGCS, 2020). The pathological chemotherapy response score (CRS) and the modeled CA-125 KELIM during neo-adjuvant chemotherapy were reported as potential markers. Moreover, changes in tumor infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs) after neo-adjuvant chemotherapy were reported as a prognostic factor (Leary et al, Cancer Immunol Immunother, 2021). We studied the relationships between changes in TILs, the pathological response (pR) and KELIM in patients treated with neo-adjuvant chemotherapy +/- interval debulking surgery (IDS) from CHIVA phase II trial. Methodology The patients were enrolled in the randomized phase II trial CHIVA (NCT01583322, neo-adjuvant carboplatin-paclitaxel +/- nintedanib, +/- IDS, n=188 patients). KELIM were previously calculated (You et al CCR 2020). The 30 patients with the highest KELIM (very chemosensitive) or the lowest KELIM (poorly chemosensitive) were selected. HE-stained sections from available tissue blocks at baseline and after chemotherapy were analyzed for stromal TILs (sTILs, surface of the tumor stroma occupied by lymphocytes) and intra-epithelial TILs (ieTILs, brisk or non-brisk). The pathological response (pR) was assessed on the most tumoral available tissue block obtained after chemotherapy (good response if extensive fibrous changes with no or isolated tumor cells, or Result(s)* No relationships between KELIM and TILs infiltrates on baseline tumor samples were found. However, strong associations were found between KELIM and TIL infiltrates after neo-adjuvant chemotherapy for sTILs (median KELIM for sTILs 0-5% vs >5%: 0.28 versus 1.32, P Conclusion* High consistency was found between the modeled CA125 KELIM calculated during the first 100 days of neo-adjuvant chemotherapy and the pathological response, consistent with their values as indicators of the tumor chemosensitivity in first-line setting. Moreover, TILs changes were strongly associated with chemosensitivity, opening hypotheses about the mechanisms of chemosensitivity, and immunotherapy opportunity.

Introduction: Bevacizumab-containing therapy is considered a standard-of-care front-line option for stage IIIB–IV ovarian cancer based on results of randomized phase 3 trials. The multicenter non-interventional ENCOURAGE prospective cohort study assessed treatment administration and outcomes in the French real-world setting.Patients and Methods: Eligible patients were aged ≥ 18 years with planned bevacizumab-containing therapy for newly diagnosed ovarian cancer. The primary objective was to assess the safety profile of front-line bevacizumab in routine clinical practice; secondary objectives were to describe patient characteristics, indications/contraindications for bevacizumab, treatment regimens and co-medications, follow-up and monitoring, progression-free survival, and treatment at recurrence. In this non-interventional study, treatment was administered as chosen by the investigator and participation in the trial had no influence on the management of the disease.Results: Of 1,290 patients screened between April 2013 and February 2015, 468 were eligible. Most patients (86%) received bevacizumab 15 mg/kg every 3 weeks or equivalent, typically with carboplatin (99%) and paclitaxel (98%). The median duration of bevacizumab was 12.2 (range 0–28, interquartile range 6.9–14.9) months; 8% of patients discontinued bevacizumab because of toxicity. The most common adverse events were hypertension (38% of patients), fatigue (35%), and bleeding (32%). There were no treatment-related deaths. Most physicians (90%) reported blood pressure measurement immediately before each bevacizumab infusion and almost all (97%) reported monitoring for proteinuria before each bevacizumab infusion. Median progression-free survival was 17.4 (95% CI, 16.4–19.1) months. The 3-year overall survival rate was 62% (95% CI, 58–67%). The most commonly administered chemotherapies at recurrence were carboplatin and pegylated liposomal doxorubicin.Discussion: Clinical outcomes and tolerability with bevacizumab in this real-life setting are consistent with randomized trial results, notwithstanding differences in the treated patient population and treatment schedule.Clinical Trial Registration:ClinicalTrials.gov, Identifier NCT01832415.

Anemia is common in oncology and negatively impacts quality of life. However, there is lack of knowledge about iron deficiency (ID) epidemiology. The aim of this study was to prospectively assess iron status in patients with locally advanced or metastatic cancer beginning chemotherapy. In this prospective, multicenter cohort study, anemia and ID were evaluated in patients with locally advanced or metastatic solid tumors and lymphoma before starting chemotherapy. Blood samples were collected at inclusion (W0), 6 weeks (W6), and 12 weeks (W12). Prevalence was evaluated in the general population, according to tumor location and was correlated with tumor response. One hundred twenty-nine patients were enrolled between 2013 and 2015; 119 had solid tumors and 10 lymphomas. At W0, there were no significant difference between locations with a prevalence around 50–60% (range 47.2–70.4%) and only a trend for colorectal cancer (70.4%, P = 0.069) due to a higher prevalence of absolute ID (18.5%). Prevalence of ID+ decreased between W0 and W6 and remained stable until W12 due to the proportion of patients with ID and without anemia. However, anemia prevalence increased during W0 and W6 and remained stable to W6 from W12 due to patients with anemia but without ID. A significant correlation between tumor response and ID prevalence was found (P = 0.036). We confirm the high prevalence of ID and anemia in cancer patients. ID status is correlated to tumor response providing a strong rationale for iron monitoring during cancer management.

Objective. To analyze the safety and efficacy of niraparib in patients aged >= 70 years with recurrent ovarian cancer in the ENGOT-OV16/NOVA trial. Methods. The trial enrolled 2 independent cohorts with histologically diagnosed recurrent ovarian, fallopian tube, or peritoneal cancer who responded to platinum rechallenge, on the basis of germline breast cancer susceptibility gene mutation (gBRCAmut) status. Patients were randomized 2:1 to receive niraparib (300 mg) or placebo once daily until disease progression. The primary endpoint was progression-free survival (PFS) by blinded independent central review. Adverse events (AEs) of special interest were based on the known safety profile of poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase inhibitors. Results. Patients aged >= 70 years in the gBRCAmut cohort receiving niraparib (n = 14) had not yet reached a median PFS compared with a median PFS of 3.7 months for the same age group in the placebo arm (hazard ratio [HR], 0.09 [95% confidence interval (CI), 0.01 to 0.73]). Non-gBRCAmut patients aged >= 70 years receiving niraparib (n = 47) had a median PFS of 11.3 months compared with 3.8 months in the placebo arm (HR, 0.35 [95% CI, 0.18 to 0.71]). Median duration of follow-up in the niraparib arm was 17.3 months in patients >= 70 years and 17.2 months in patients = 70 years population. The most common grade >= 3 AEs in patients >= 70 years were hematologic: thrombocytopenia event (34.4%), anemia event (13.1%), and neutropenia event (16.4%). Conclusions. For patients >= 70 years of age receiving niraparib as maintenance treatment in the ENGOT-OV16/NOVA trial, PFS benefits and incidence of any grade or serious treatment-emergent AEs were comparable to results in the younger population. Use of niraparib should be considered in this population., TESARO, Inc.

Objectives: In patients with recurrent advanced endometrial carcinomas (EC), innovative treatments are needed after platinum chemotherapy. EC are characterized by frequent defective DNA repair, along with alterations of PI3K-AKT-mTor, and IGF1R pathways. In preclinical studies, the activity of PARP inhibitor is increased by the inhibition of PI3K-AKT pathway. Metformin inhibits the PI3K-AKT-mTor signaling pathway, and reduces IGF1 circulating levels. Metronomic cyclophosphamide may increase the activity of PARP inhibitors through DNA alkylating and anti-angiogenic effects. ENDOLA trial was meant to assess the safety and efficacy of the triplet olaparib (PARP 1-3 inhibitor) + metronomic cyclophosphamide + metformin in patients with advanced EC Methods: ENDOLA trial (NCT02755844) was an academic French prospective multicenter phase I/II open-label dose-escalation study meant to assess the safety, the Recommended Phase II trial Dose (RP2D), and the efficacy of olaparib combined to metronomic cyclophosphamide 50 mg PO QD and metformin 500 mg PO TID in patients with recurrent advanced EC. In the phase I part, olaparib was dose-escalated from PO 150 mg to 300 mg BID with a continual reassessment method (CRM), aiming at defining the RP2D. In the phase II part, the cohort was expanded to assess the efficacy of the triplet in terms of non-progression rate at 10 weeks (H0= 20%; H1= 50%; 1-sided α risk=0.01; power = 90%). Results: From Sept 2016 to Nov 2019, 35 patients enrolled, and 31 were assessable (median age: 69, IQR: 62-72; endometrioid: n=18 (51.4%); serous: n=11 (35.5%); carcinosarcoma: n=2 (6.5%)). In the phase I part (17 patients), 1 DLT (5.9%) was observed: grade 3 fatigue during cycle 1 at 150 mg. Dose-escalation was possible up to 300 mg BID, that was the RP2D. In the phase II part (14 patients), the overall response rate was 20.8%, and the disease-control rate was 66.6 %. The non-progression rate at 10 weeks was 61.5% (95% CI 42.8-80.2). The median PFS was 5.1 months, including 7.5 months (5.1-8.9) for endometrioid, and 4.3 months (2.7-5.8) for serous carcinomas. Treatment-related serious adverse-events (AEs) occurred in 3 patients (grade 3 fatigue; grade 4 lymphopenia; grade 4 lymphopenia & neutropenia). The most frequent grade 3-4 treatment-related AEs were lymphopenia (32.3%); anemia (16.1%); neutropenia (16.1%); and fatigue (12.9%). Conclusions: In heavily pre-treated patients with advanced EC, olaparib 300 mg BID could be safely combined to metformin 1500 mg/day and metronomic cyclophosphamide 50 mg/day. With a 61.5% non-progression rate at 10 weeks, the 1st-objective was reached. The 5.1 month median PFS (7.5 for endometrioid and 4.3 for serous) is promising compared to those observed with chemotherapy or immunotherapy-based combination in KEYNOTE-775 (Colombo et al. Proc ESMO 2021). Investigation in phase III is warranted.

11571 Background: Perivascular Epithelioid Cell Neoplasms (PEComas) encompass a heterogeneous family of mesenchymal tumors. The current understanding of their natural history is limited. Previously described clinicopathological factors aimed to define benign or malignant variants, but there is a lack of prognostic factors associated with recurrence of surgically resected tumors, preventing the development of a prognostic score to better optimize patient’s management. Methods: This is a retrospective analysis of clinicopathological features from patients diagnosed with a localized PEComa, within all centers from the French Sarcoma network and one center in Belgium. We analyzed 12 clinicopathological factors in a Cox proportional hazard framework to derive a multivariate prognostic risk model for progression-free survival (PFS). We built the PEComa PROgnostic score (PEC-PRO) ranging from 0 to 5, based on the coefficients of the multivariate model. Three different prognostic groups were identified: low risk (score = 0), intermediate risk (score = 1) and high risk (score ≥2). Results: Ninety-three patients were analyzed with a median follow-up of 46 months (range, 3-253). At diagnosis, the median age was 54 years (range, 13-84), with female predominance (72%). Most common primary locations were uterus (n = 15;16%) and kidney (n = 15;16%). Median tumor size was 6.2 cm (range, 0.8-30). Among patients with reported surgical margins, 64 (73%) and 23 (27%) had R0 and R1-2 margins, respectively. The median PFS was 26 months (IC95, 2.9-124.4), with 1- and 5-year overall survival (OS) rates of 95.7% and 69.9%, respectively, while the median OS was not reached. Using univariate analyses, male gender, primary tumor size > 5 cm, high nuclear grade and cellularity, high mitotic rate > 1/50 HPF, necrosis, vascular invasion, nodal invasion, and R1-2 margins were associated with a shorter PFS. Among those, male gender (HR = 2.88; IC95 1.12-7.411, p = 0.03), vascular invasion (HR = 3.14; IC95 1.10-8.96, p = 0.034), necrosis (HR = 3.93; IC95 1.35-11.47, p = 0.015), and R1-2 margins (HR 4.47; IC95 1.60-12.46, p = 0.007) remained associated with PFS in the multivariate analysis and were included in the multivariate model. Median PFS in patients with high PEC-PRO score was 16 months as compared to 104 months and not reached for patients with intermediate and low PEC-PRO scores, respectively (p < 0.001). We also confirmed the prognostic relevance of the PEC-PRO score in terms of OS. Conclusions: Using a weighted combination of clinicopathological features, the PEC-PRO score reliably predicts the post-operative recurrence risk in patients with localized PEComas. It has the potential to better improve follow-up strategies and personalize adjuvant treatments. The findings of this retrospective analysis require validation in a prospective trial.

TPS1116 Background: PARP inhibitors have documented clinical activity in patients with HER2 negative breast cancer (BC) and a germline pathogenic variant (PV) in BRCA1 or BRCA2. Defects in other genes involved in homologous recombination DNA repair (HRR) or mismatch repair pathway (microsatellite instability MSI) have been associated with preclinical cellular sensitivity to PARP inhibitors. Several preclinical and clinical studies have suggested synergy between immune checkpoint blockade and PARP inhibitors. Indeed, tumors with deficiency in HRR have higher mutagenic potential and produce a larger number of neoantigens. Around 60% of BC with a germline PV in BRCA1/ 2 are ER+/HER2- tumors, and the ER-pathway remains a key target of their therapy. The combination of PARP inhibitors with endocrine therapy has shown to be superior to monotherapy. Methods: DOLAF is an open-label, international, multicentric, phase II trial assessing the combination of olaparib, fulvestrant, and durvalumab in ER+/HER2- metastatic or locally advanced BC with somatic or germline PV in BRCA1, BRCA2 or other genes implicated in the HRR pathway (ATM, BARD1, BRIP1, CDK12, CHEK1, CHEK2, FANCA, FAND2, FANCL, MRE11A, NBN, PALB2, PPP2R2A, RAD51B, RAD51C, RAD51D and RAD54L) or in MSI status or other actionable genes ( AKT1, ESR1, FGFR1, FGFR2, FGFR3, and PIK3CA) all based on central tumor NGS. Further an amendment in May 2021, patients with only alterations in these other actionable genes can no longer be included. Patients must have received 1 prior line of endocrine therapy for their metastatic BC, including CDK4/6 inhibitor and maximum of 1 line of chemotherapy in the metastatic setting. Patients receive olaparib (twice daily at 300 mg), fulvestrant (2 intramuscular injections of 250 mg every 28 days) and durvalumab (1500 mg intravenous every 4 weeks). The primary objective is to evaluate the progression-free survival rate at 24 weeks. Secondary endpoints include safety, overall survival, objective response rate, in the overall population and in the germline BRCA mutated population. With an optimum two-stage Simon design, α = 2.5%, β = 5%, p0 (probability of inefficiency maximum) = 50%, p1 (probability of minimum efficiency) = 65%, it is necessary to include 158 patients. The strategy could be considered sufficiently effective if there are at least 87 patients without progression at 24 weeks. Given the lack of safety data from this association, a safety run-in phase including 6 patients has been completed without DLT. As of December 31, 2021, 266 patients have been screened of whom 102 have been treated. The first interim analysis occured in November 2021 after the inclusion of 64 evaluable patients. IDMC suggested that the trial continue as planned. Clinical trial information: NCT04053322.

Objective - We have previously shown that epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) and its treatments have negative effects on long-term quality of life (QoL) and fatigue. The present multicenter study investigated the main menopausal symptoms and gynecological management of EOC survivors (EOCS). Methods - 166 patients with relapse-free ≥3 years after the end of treatment attended a consultation with a gynecologist, including a questionnaire related to vasomotor symptoms (VMS) and sexuality, a clinical examination, a blood sample and an osteodensitometry. QoL, fatigue, insomnia and mood disorders were measured with validated questionnaires and correlated to VMS. VMS and QoL were assessed according to natural menopause (NM) or surgical menopause (SM). Results - Mean age at the survey was 62 [21–83] years and stage III/IV (48%). Mean delay since the end of treatment was 6 years. Fifty-nine patients (36%) had SM. Half of patients reported VMS. Seventy-two percent of EOCS with SM had VMS compared to 41% with NM (P < .001). VMS were not associated with poor global QoL, fatigue, insomnia or mood disorders. Two-thirds of EOCS reported a decrease in libido. Patients with SM showed a greater decrease in libido than NM (P < .02). Fourteen percent of them had osteoporosis and 50% osteopenia. Among the 85 patients with VMS, 80 did not receive HRT after cancer treatment. At the time of the survey, only 7 (4%) patients were receiving hormone replacement therapy (HRT). Conclusions - VMS and sexual disorders are frequently reported by EOCS, particularly among patients with SM. Most EOCS with menopausal symptoms could benefit from HRT to improve these symptoms.

Background Niraparib is a poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) inhibitor that is approved for use in heavily pretreated pts and as maintenance treatment of pts with newly diagnosed or recurrent ovarian cancer following a response to platinum-based chemotherapy (CT). Here we report PROs in pts receiving niraparib and placebo (PBO) in the PRIMA/ENGOT-OV26/GOG-3012 trial. Methods This double-blind, PBO-controlled, phase 3 study randomised 733 pts with newly diagnosed advanced ovarian, primary peritoneal, or fallopian tube cancer with a complete or partial response (CR or PR) to first-line (1L) platinum-based CT. Pts received niraparib or PBO once daily for 36 months or until disease progression. The primary endpoint was progression-free survival (PFS) assessed by blinded independent central review. PROs, a secondary endpoint, were collected every 8 weeks for 56 weeks, then every 12 weeks thereafter while treatment was ongoing. Once a pt discontinued treatment, PRO evaluations were performed at the time of treatment discontinuation and then at 4, 8, 12, and 24 weeks (±1 week for each time point) after the end of treatment, regardless of the status of subsequent treatment. The validated PRO instruments utilised were FOSI, EQ-5D-5L, EORTC-QLQ-C30, and EORTC-QLQ-OV28. Results Compliance rates were high for all of the PRO instruments used in the study. PRO analysis of the EORTC-QLQ-C30 and EORTC-QLQ-OV28 did not indicate a difference in health-related quality of life scores of pts treated with niraparib vs placebo. Mean scores between niraparib and placebo arms were similar at each time point. Overall, the health utility index showed a slight improvement trend in pts who received niraparib vs placebo. Conclusion Consistent with PRO results in the NOVA study, pts receiving niraparib in the PRIMA trial did not experience a decrease in quality of life compared with those receiving placebo.

Introduction Niraparib is a poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase inhibitor approved for treatment in heavily pretreated patients and maintenance of patients with newly diagnosed or recurrent ovarian cancer following a response to platinum-based chemotherapy. Here we report safety and patient-reported outcomes (PROs) in the overall population and subgroups from PRIMA/ENGOT-OV26/GOG-3012 (NCT02655016). Methods This double-blind, placebo-controlled, phase 3 study randomized 733 patients. Patients received a 300-mg QD fixed starting dose (FSD) of niraparib or placebo for 36 months or until progression/toxicity. A protocol amendment introduced an individualized starting dose (ISD): 200 mg in patients with body weight Results In the overall population, the most common grade ≥3 treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs) were hematologic (table 1). In patients receiving ISD, these TEAEs decreased. No treatment-related deaths occurred. PRO analysis showed no difference in niraparib-treated patients versus placebo in the overall population or in the homologous recombination deficient, homologous recombination proficient, FSD, and ISD subgroups. Conclusions ISD incorporation improved the safety profile of niraparib without compromising efficacy. Niraparib was well tolerated, with similar PRO scores across the treatment period. Hematologic toxicities were manageable through implementation of dose interruptions and reductions. Funding GlaxoSmithKline NCT: NCT02655016

Introduction Niraparib is a poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase inhibitor approved for maintenance treatment of patients with newly diagnosed or recurrent OC that responded to platinum-based chemotherapy and treatment in heavily-pretreated recurrent OC. Here we report efficacy in patients receiving the FSD and ISD in the PRIMA/ENGOT-OV26/GOG-3012 trial (NCT02655016). Methods This double-blind, placebo-controlled, phase 3 study randomized 733 patients to receive niraparib or placebo for 36 months or until disease progression/toxicity. A protocol amendment introduced ISD: 200 mg in patients with body weight Results BICR and IA PFS were highly concordant in the overall population. Efficacy of niraparib based on IA PFS in FSD vs ISD subgroups for each data cut were similar (table 1). Dose interruptions, modifications, and hematologic toxicity were lower with the ISD. Exposure–response data supported the clinical data. Conclusions The 200- or 300-mg ISD by baseline body weight and platelet counts demonstrated comparable efficacy while improving the safety profile of niraparib. Use of this regimen for first-line maintenance of advanced OC patients is approved by the US FDA. Funded by: GlaxoSmithKline NCT: NCT02655016

PURPOSE In the ENGOT-OV16/NOVA trial (ClinicalTrials.gov identifier: NCT01847274 ), maintenance therapy with niraparib, a poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase inhibitor, prolonged progression-free survival in patients with platinum-sensitive, recurrent ovarian cancer who had a response to their last platinum-based chemotherapy. The objective of the study was to assess the clinical benefit and patient-reported outcomes in patients who had a partial response (PR) and complete response (CR) to their last platinum-based therapy. PATIENTS AND METHODS A total of 553 patients were enrolled in the trial. Of 203 patients with a germline BRCA mutation (g BRCAmut), 99 had a PR and 104 had a CR to their last platinum-based therapy; of 350 patients without a confirmed g BRCAmut (non–g BRCAmut), 173 had a PR and 177 had a CR. Post hoc analyses were carried out to evaluate safety and the risk of progression in these patients according to g BRCAmut status and response to their last platinum-based therapy. Ovarian cancer–specific symptoms and quality of life were assessed using the Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy–Ovarian Symptom Index. RESULTS Progression-free survival was improved in patients treated with niraparib compared with placebo in both the g BRCAmut cohort (PR: hazard ratio [HR], 0.24; 95% CI, 0.131 to 0.441; P < .0001; CR: HR, 0.30; 95% CI, 0.160 to 0.546; P < .0001) and the non–g BRCAmut cohort (PR: HR, 0.35; 95% CI, 0.230 to 0.532; P < .0001; CR: HR, 0.58; 95% CI, 0.383 to 0.868; P = .0082). The incidence of any-grade and grade 3 or greater adverse events was manageable. No meaningful differences were observed between niraparib and placebo in PR and CR subgroups with respect to patient-reported outcomes. CONCLUSION Patients achieved clinical benefit from maintenance treatment with niraparib regardless of response to the last platinum-based therapy.

Background Because of the rarity of the condition, studies concerning the management of patients with squamous cell carcinoma of the anus with distant metastasis are scarce. The available studies indicate poor outcomes with exclusive chemotherapy. Objective Our aim was to evaluate the impact of multidisciplinary treatment on overall survival among patients presenting with metastatic squamous cell carcinoma of the anus. Design This was a retrospective study. Settings The study was conducted at a single French institution between 2000 and 2014. Patients Consecutive patients with histologically proven, newly diagnosed, or recurrent metastatic squamous cell carcinoma of the anus were included. Interventions Study interventions included multimodal therapy combining systemic chemotherapy and local ablative treatment to remove all metastases through surgery, radiofrequency ablation, or radiotherapy. Main outcome measures The primary outcome measure was overall survival. Results Fifty patients (median age, 62 years; men/women: 8/42) fulfilled the inclusion criteria, and 39 were available for Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors. Forty had metastatic relapse after previous treatment of localized disease, and 10 presented with synchronous metastasis. P16 status was not available. Patients received at least 1 chemotherapy regimen, including 5-fluorouracil-mitomycin C (n = 22), cisplatin-5-fluorouracil (n = 20), or 5-fluorouracil alone (n = 3). Thirteen also had surgical metastasectomy, 11 had radiotherapy, and 6 had radiofrequency ablation. Median overall survival was 20.0 months (95% CI, 18.2-21.8 mo), and median time to failure of strategy was 6.0 months (95% CI, 2.9-9.1 mo). Overall response rate was 56% (95% CI, 40%-73%). Outcomes from the 5-fluorouracil-mitomycin C and cisplatin regimens did not statistically differ. Patients treated with multimodal therapy had a median overall survival of 22.0 months (95% CI, 15.3-28.6 mo) versus 13.0 months (95% CI, 9.5-16.5 mo; p = 0.002). Median time to failure of strategy was 10.0 months (95% CI, 4.2-15.7 mo) versus 5.0 months (95% CI, 2.8-7.2; p = 0.007). After 2 years, 40% of patients with multimodal treatment and 20% of those without ablative treatment were alive. Limitations This study is limited by its retrospective design and modest sample size. Conclusions Stage IV squamous cell carcinoma of the anus outcomes are poor, but first-line chemotherapy can enable good response rates. Other treatment modalities, including surgery, radiotherapy, and thermoablation, should be considered, because they may provide a survival advantage.

Few data are available on long-term fatigue (LTF) and quality of life (QoL) among epithelial ovarian cancer survivors (EOCS). In this case-control study, we compared LTF, symptoms and several QoL domains in EOCS relapse-free ≥3 years after first-line treatment and age-matched healthy women.EOCS were recruited from 25 cooperative GINECO centers in France. Controls were randomly selected from the electoral rolls. All participants completed validated self-reported questionnaires: fatigue (FACIT-F), QoL (FACT-G/O), neurotoxicity (FACT-Ntx), anxiety/depression (HADS), sleep disturbance (ISI), and physical activity (IPAQ). Severe LTF (SLTF) was defined as a FACIT-F score37/52. Univariate and multivariate logistic regressions were conducted to analyze SLTF and its influencing factors in EOCS.A total of 318 EOCS and 318 controls were included. EOCS were 63-year-old on average, with FIGO stage I/II (50%), III/IV (48%); 99% had received platinum and taxane chemotherapy, with an average 6-year follow-up. There were no differences between the two groups in socio-demographic characteristics and global QoL. EOCS had poorer FACIT-F scores (40 versus 45, P 0.0001), lower functional well-being scores (18 versus 20, P = 0.0002), poorer FACT-O scores (31 versus 34 P 0.0001), and poorer FACT-Ntx scores (35 versus 39, P 0.0001). They also reported more SLTF (26% versus 13%, P = 0.0004), poorer sleep quality (63% versus 47%, P = 0.0003), and more depression (22% versus 13%, P = 0.01). Fewer than 20% of EOCS and controls exercised regularly. In multivariate analyses, EOCS with high levels of depression, neurotoxicity, and sleep disturbance had an increased risk of developing SLTF (P 0.01).Compared with controls, EOCS presented similar QoL but persistent LTF, EOC-related symptoms, neurotoxicity, depression, and sleep disturbance. Depression, neuropathy, and sleep disturbance are the main conditions associated with severe LTF.

Background: Olaparib is a PARP inhibitor that has shown high response rates and clinical activity in patients with advanced HER2-negative breast cancer (BC) and a germline BRCA1 and BRCA2 mutation. There is also evidence of cellular sensitivity to PARP inhibitors associated to defects in other genes involved in homologous recombination DNA repair (HRR) or mismatch repair pathway (microsatellite instability MSI). Moreover, about 15% of patients with ER+/HER2- metastatic BC have at least 100 mutations in their tumor, leading to genomic instability and potential sensitivity to PARP inhibitors. Several preclinical and clinical studies have suggested the benefit of an association of immune checkpoint blockade, like durvalumab, with PARP inhibitor. Indeed, tumors with BRCA1/2 mutations or other deficiency in HRR have high mutagenic burden and produce a larger number of neoantigens. Most BRCA-associated BC are ER+/HER2-. Although loss of the BRCA gene function is a key driver of oncogenesis in these patients, ER-pathway appears to remain a key target for their therapy. Preclinical data indicate that olaparib may enhance endocrine therapy efficacy and circumvent resistance. Therefore, the combination of durvalumab, olaparib and endocrine therapy could be a therapeutic option for patients with BRCA1/2 mutation or for patients with selected ER+/HER2- advanced BC. Trial design: DOLAF is an open-label, international, multicentric, phase II trial assessing the combination of olaparib, fulvestrant, and durvalumab. Olaparib will be administered orally twice daily at 300 mg. Fulvestrant will be administered as two intramuscular injections of 250 mg (Cycle 1 Days 1 and 15, and Day 1 of each subsequent 28-day cycle). Durvalumab will be started 4 weeks after the first dose of olaparib at 1500 mg intravenous every 4 weeks. Eligibility criteria include: ER+/HER2- metastatic or locally advanced BC with documented germline alteration in BRCA1 or BRCA2 or deleterious germline or somatic alterations implicated in the HRR pathway (ATM, BARD1, BRCA1, BRCA2, BRIP1, CDK12, CHEK1, CHEK2, FANCA, FAND2, FANCL, MRE11A, NBN, PALB2, PPP2R2A, RAD51B, RAD51C, RAD51D and RAD54L) or in MSI status or other actionable genes (AKT1, ESR1, FGFR1, FGFR2, FGFR3, and PIK3CA) all based on central tumor next generation DNA sequencing. Patients could have received 1 line of endocrine therapy and/or 1 line of chemotherapy in the metastatic setting.Specific aims: To evaluate the efficacy of the combination in terms of progression-free survival rate at 24 weeks using RECIST v1.1. Secondary endpoints include: safety (according to the NCI-CTCAE v5.0), overall survival, progression-free survival, objective response rate, duration of response in the overall study population and in the germline BRCA mutated population. Statistical methods: Given the lack of safety data from this association, a safety run-in of 6 patients was planned. With an optimum two-stage Simon design,α = 2.5%, β = 5%, p0 (the probability of inefficiency maximum) = 50%, p1 (the probability of minimum efficiency) = 65%, it would be necessary to include 149 evaluable patients. The strategy could be considered sufficiently effective if there are at least 87 successes. According to the established design (including a rate of 5% of patients lost to follow-up or non-evaluable), it will be necessary to include 158 patients. We hypothesized that about 20% of screened patients will have a molecular alteration to allow enrollment. Thus, we need to screen 790 patients. The study is recruiting. The safety run-in is over. By July 1, 2020, 62 patients have been screened and 8 have been treated (NCT04053322).

6050 Background: Niraparib is approved at a fixed starting dose (FSD) of 300 mg QD for maintenance treatment of patients (pts) with recurrent ovarian cancer (OC) achieving a complete or partial response to platinum-based chemotherapy based in the ENGOT-OV16/NOVA study. A post-hoc analysis of NOVA showed baseline bodyweight (BW) and platelet count (PC) were predictive for hematologic toxicities and dose reductions. Following this analysis, the PRIMA/ENGOT-OV26/GOG-3012 study was amended to prospectively evaluate the safety and efficacy of an individualized starting dose (ISD) regimen. Methods: This double-blind, placebo-controlled, phase III study randomized 733 pts with newly diagnosed advanced OC with a complete or partial response to first-line (1L) platinum-based chemotherapy. The protocol was amended to change the dose from 300 mg FSD for all patients to an ISD regimen: 200 mg QD in pts with BW
