Abstract
Deaths from the majority of cancers are falling globally, but the incidence and mortality from hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is increasing in the United Kingdom and in other Western countries. HCC is a highly fatal cancer, often diagnosed late, with an incidence to mortality ratio that approaches 1. Despite there being a number of treatment options, including those associated with good medium to long-term survival, 5-year survival from HCC in the UK remains below 20%. Sex, ethnicity and deprivation are important demographics for the incidence of, and/or survival from, HCC. These clinical practice guidelines will provide evidence-based advice for the assessment and management of patients with HCC. The clinical and scientific data underpinning the recommendations we make are summarised in detail. Much of the content will have broad relevance, but the treatment algorithms are based on therapies that are available in the UK and have regulatory approval for use in the National Health Service.

Abstract
340 Background: TIS, an anti-programmed cell death protein 1 (PD-1) antibody, + chemo as 1L therapy demonstrated statistically significant and clinically meaningful improvement in overall survival (OS) vs PBO + chemo in patients with advanced or metastatic ESCC (hazard ratio [HR] 0.66 [95% confidence interval (CI) 0.54, 0.80]; P< 0.0001), with a manageable safety profile, at interim analysis of the phase 3, double-blind RATIONALE-306 study (NCT03783442). Here, we report data from the non-Asia subgroup (Europe, Northern America, and Oceania). Methods: Adults with advanced or metastatic ESCC, with no prior systemic treatment for advanced disease were randomized 1:1, (stratified by region, prior definitive therapy, and investigator [INV]-chosen chemo) to receive TIS 200 mg intravenously (IV) once every 3 weeks (Q3W) (Arm A) or PBO IV Q3W (Arm B), with platinum + fluoropyrimidine, or platinum + paclitaxel until disease progression by INV per RECIST v1.1, intolerable toxicity, or withdrawal. The primary endpoint was OS in the intent-to-treat population. Secondary endpoints included: progression-free survival (PFS), objective response rate (ORR), and duration of response (DoR) by INV per RECIST v1.1; OS in the programmed death-ligand 1 score ≥10%; and safety. Results: Of 649 randomized patients, 163 (25.1%) were from the non-Asia subgroup (Arm A, n = 83; Arm B, n = 80). At data cutoff (Feb 28, 2022), the median study follow-up time in the non-Asia subgroup was 16.0 months (mo) in Arm A vs 8.4 mo in Arm B. OS (median 16.3 vs 9.0 mo; unstratified HR 0.66 [95% CI 0.45, 0.96]) and PFS (median 7.7 vs 5.5 mo; unstratified HR 0.59 [95% CI 0.41, 0.83]) were improved in Arm A vs Arm B, respectively. Arm A had higher ORR (61.4% vs 41.3%, odds ratio 2.27 [95% CI 1.21, 4.25]) and longer median DoR (7.1 mo [95% CI 5.6, 9.6] vs 5.7 mo [95% CI 3.8, 8.3]) than Arm B. More patients in Arm A vs Arm B experienced ≥1 treatment-related adverse event (TRAE; 94.0% vs 88.5%), serious TRAEs (25.3% vs 17.9%), and discontinuation due to treatment-emergent AEs (42.2% vs 35.9%, respectively). Similar proportions of patients in Arm A vs Arm B had ≥grade 3 TRAEs (56.6% vs 52.6%), and TRAEs leading to death (1.2% vs 1.3%), respectively. Conclusions: In the non-Asia subgroup, 1L TIS + chemo showed a clinically meaningful improvement in OS vs PBO + chemo in patients with advanced or metastatic ESCC, with a manageable safety profile, consistent with published results in the overall population.

Abstract
TPS631 Background: HCC is increasing rapidly in incidence worldwide driven by a rise in chronic liver disease including non-alcoholic steato-hepatitis (NASH). Most pts are not suitable for curative or loco-regional treatments and may be candidates for systemic therapies. Immune checkpoint inhibitors combined with VEGF inhibition is a standard of care in HCC. However, a meta-analysis of 3 phase III randomised trials of PD-1 or PDL-1 inhibitors (n > 1,600 pts) with HCC suggests that pts with NASH-related HCC treated with PD-1/PDL-1 inhibitors had reduced overall survival compared with other aetiologies. Neutrophils expressing the chemokine receptor CXCR2, crucial to neutrophil recruitment in acute-injury, are highly represented in NASH-HCC. In NASH-HCC murine models, lacking response to immune-checkpoint inhibitors, AZD5069 (CXCR2 inhibitor) in combination with anti-PDL-1 suppressed tumor burden and extended survival, accompanied by an increase in tumor-associated neutrophils which switched from a pro-tumor to anti-tumor progenitor-like neutrophil phenotype. We propose that inhibition of CXCR2 may potentiate the efficacy of anti-PDL-1 inhibition in pts with HCC. Methods: In this multi-centre (n = 10) study, pts with biopsy-confirmed HCC, PS ECOG < 1, Child-Pugh A, < 1 prior systemic therapies, receive 1 of escalating doses of AZD5069 (bid, po daily) with Durvalumab (1.5 gm iv on day 1) in 28-day cycles for up to 2 years to determine the recommended phase II dose using a Keyboard design, followed by an additional cohort of pts to determine the anti-tumor efficacy of this combination using a Simon’s two-stage design (min 18, max 35 pts; target objective response rate > 30%; unacceptable response rate < 10%). Dose limiting toxicities (DLTs) are assessed during cycle 1. Disease assessments are performed 8-weekly (12-weekly after 1 year). The 1st dose cohort has been completed with no DLTs. The 2nd dose cohort opened to recruitment in September 2022. Exploratory studies (blood; pre- & on-treatment tumor and non-malignant liver biopsies) include biomarkers of CXCR2 inhibition (blood); proof-of-mechanism (tumor: expression of CXCR2, PD-L1, PD-1, CD8, CD4, CD66b, CD69); proof-of-mechanism (blood: ctDNA); drug-induced changes of mRNA expression, CXCR2 ligands & signalling pathway genes, T-cell and myeloid cell pathways, neutrophil-associated genes; predictive biomarkers (blood and tumour) include biomarkers of the CXCR2/PD-L1 immune axis; aberrant CXCR2 signalling pathways; proliferation biomarkers and CD10 (neutrophils), CD68 (macrophages), CD103 (T-regs); tumour mutational status. This study is funded by a grant from Cancer Research UK (A29287) and is co-sponsored by University of Glasgow and NHS Greater Glasgow & Clyde. Study sites are supported by the Experimental Cancer Medicine Centre Network. AZD5069 and Durvalumab are provided by Astra Zeneca. Clinical trial information: 2020-003346-36 .

Abstract
646 Background: As demonstrated in the primary analysis of NET-02, nal-IRI/5-FU/folinic acid, but not docetaxel, met the primary endpoint of 6 month (mo) progression-free survival (PFS) rate in pts with progressive PD-EP-NEC. Here, the final results are presented. Methods: This was a multi-centre, randomised (1:1), phase II trial of IV nal-IRI (70mg/m2 free base)/5-FU (2400 mg/m2)/folinic acid, Q14 days (ARM A), or IV docetaxel (75mg/m2), Q21 days (ARM B), as 2L therapy in pts with progressive PD-EP-NEC, aimed at selecting a treatment for continuation to a phase III trial. On disease progression, pts in both arms could receive further systemic treatment as recommended by their physicians. Primary endpoint was 6 mo PFS rate; 80% power to demonstrate the one-sided 95% confidence interval (CI) of the 6 mo PFS rate excluded 15%, if the true rate was ≥30% (required level of efficacy); a rate of <15% would give grounds for rejection (additional selection criteria: toxicity and quality of life (QoL)). Intention was to show that regimens were sufficiently active, but not to assess superiority of one regimen over the other. Secondary endpoints included objective response rate (ORR), PFS, overall survival (OS), toxicity, QoL (European Organisation for Research and Treatment of Cancer QLQ C30 and GINET21) and translational end-points. Results: Of 58 pts in 15 UK centres (Nov 18-Dec 21), 29 in ARM A (2 pts excluded for efficacy analysis: well-differentiated grade 3 (G3) neuroendocrine tumour and goblet cell adenocarcinoma), 29 in ARM B. Eight pts in both arms (27.6% each) received subsequent chemotherapy. Fifty-four pts (93%) have died; the primary end-point of 6-mo PFS rate was met in ARM A; ORR, median PFS and OS are also presented. Adverse events ≥ G3 occurred in 51.7% and 55.2% in ARM A and B with 1 and 6 discontinuations due to toxicity in ARM A and B, respectively. Health-related QoL was maintained (C30 functional scales & global health status remained stable pre-progression) and potentially improved (sustained improvement in role functioning) with nal-IRI/5-FU/folinic acid, but not docetaxel (all C30 functional scales & global health status worsened between baseline and week 18, and treatment-related symptoms also worsened in GINET21). Translational analysis is on-going. Conclusions: nal-IRI/5-FU warrants further evaluation in pts with PD-EP-NEC, with the results highlighting that conduct of randomised trials in this disease group of unmet need is possible and safe.

Abstract
LBA661 Background: Liposomal irinotecan administered with 5-fluorouracil/leucovorin (5-FU/LV) is approved in the USA and Europe for mPDAC following progression with gemcitabine-based therapy. A phase 1/2 study (Wainberg et al. Eur J Cancer 2021;151:14–24; NCT02551991) demonstrated promising anti-tumor activity in patients with mPDAC who received first-line liposomal irinotecan 50 mg/m2 + 5-FU 2400 mg/m2 + LV 400 mg/m2 + oxaliplatin 60 mg/m2 (NALIRIFOX). Herein, we present results from NAPOLI-3 (NCT04083235), a randomized, open-label, phase 3 study investigating the efficacy and safety of NALIRIFOX compared with nab-paclitaxel + gemcitabine as first-line therapy in patients with mPDAC. Methods: Eligible patients with histopathologically/cytologically confirmed untreated metastatic PDAC were randomized (1:1) to receive NALIRIFOX on days 1 and 15 of a 28-day cycle or nab-paclitaxel 125 mg/m2 + gemcitabine 1000 mg/m2 (Gem+NabP) on days 1, 8 and 15 of a 28-day cycle. Randomization was stratified by ECOG performance status, geographic region and presence or absence of liver metastases. The primary endpoint was overall survival (OS); secondary endpoints were progression-free survival (PFS), overall response rate (ORR) and safety. OS was evaluated when ≥ 543 events were observed using a stratified log-rank test with an overall 1-sided significance level of 0.025. Results: Overall, 770 patients (NALIRIFOX, n = 383; Gem+NabP, n = 387) were included. Baseline characteristics were well balanced between arms. At a median follow-up of 16.1 months, 544 events had occurred. The median OS was 11.1 months in the NALIFIROX arm as compared with 9.2 months in the Gem+NabP arm (HR 0.84 [95% CI 0.71–0.99]; p = 0.04); PFS was also significantly improved (7.4 months vs 5.6 months; HR 0.70 [0.59–0.84]; p = 0.0001). Grade 3/4 treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs) with ≥ 10% frequency in patients receiving NALIRIFOX versus Gem+NabP included diarrhea (20.3% vs 4.5%), nausea (11.9% vs 2.6%), hypokalemia (15.1% vs 4.0%), anemia (10.5% vs 17.4%) and neutropenia (14.1% vs 24.5%). Conclusions: First-line NALIRIFOX demonstrated clinically meaningful and statistically significant improvement in OS and PFS compared with Gem+NabP in treatment-naïve patients with mPDAC. The safety profile of NALIRIFOX was manageable and consistent with the profiles of the treatment components. Funding: Funded by Ipsen. Clinical trial information: NCT04083235 .[Table: see text]

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Type I gastric neuroendocrine neoplasms (g-NENs) have a low risk of metastasis and a generally favourable prognosis. Patients with small type I g-NENs (≤10mm) frequently require no treatment, whereas those with larger polyps usually undergo resection. We evaluated the safety and outcomes of endoscopic surveillance after no initial treatment in selected patients with type I g-NENs.
Methods
Retrospective analysis of type I g-NEN patients across two European Neuroendocrine Tumour Society Centers of Excellence 2003–2019.
Results
Following initial assessment, 87 of 115 patients with type I g-NEN (75 with polyps ≤10mm) received no initial treatment and underwent endoscopic surveillance. 79/87 (91%) demonstrated no clinically meaningful change in tumour size or grade over a median 62 month follow up. Only two patients developed NEN progression that required a change in management and two other patients developed gastric adenocarcinoma/high grade dysplasia; all four initially had ≥11mm g-NENs.
Conclusions
Patients with ≤10mm type I g-NENs were unlikely to develop clinically significant tumour progression and in most cases, resection was not needed. The endoscopic surveillance interval could therefore potentially be safely increased to every 2–3 years in such patients. However, lifelong surveillance is still advocated due to the additional risk of developing gastric adenocarcinoma.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Female physicians in medicine are increasing, but disparities in female authorship exist. The aim of this study was to characterise factors associated with female first (FF) and female senior (SF) authorship in later phase systemic oncological clinical trials in biliary tract cancer (BTC) and identify any changes over time. SETTING Embase/Medline identified trial publications in BTC (2000-2020) were included. χ2 tests and log regression were used (assessed factors associated with FF and SF authorship, including changes over time (STATA V.16)). PRIMARY OUTCOME MEASURE FF and SF authorship in later phase systemic oncological clinical trials in BTC. SECONDARY OUTCOME MEASURE Any changes over time? RESULTS Of 501 publications, 163 met inclusion criteria. The median percentage of female author representation in publications was 25%; there were no female authors in 13% of publications. Geographic location of the home institution of the first and senior authors was Asia (42%/42%), Europe (29%/29%), USA (24%/22%) and other (4%/6%), respectively. Overall, FF and SF author representation was 20% and 10%, respectively. The median position of the first female author was second in all the publication author lists. The phase of trial, journal-impact factor, industry funding or whether the study met its primary endpoint did not impact FF/SF author representation. More SF authors had home institutions in 'other' geographic locations (40% in 10 trials) (p=0.02) versus Asia (6%), Europe (8%) and USA (14%). There were no significant changes in FF/SF representation over time (p=0.61 and p=0.33 respectively). CONCLUSIONS FF and SF author representation in later phase systemic clinical trial publications in BTC is low and has not changed significantly over time. The underlying reasons for this imbalance need to be better understood and addressed.

Abstract
PURPOSE Type I gastric neuroendocrine neoplasms (g-NENs) have a low risk of metastasis and a generally favourable prognosis. Patients with small type I g-NENs (≤10 mm) frequently require no treatment, whereas those with larger polyps usually undergo resection. We evaluated the safety and outcomes of endoscopic surveillance after no initial treatment in selected patients with type I g-NENs. METHODS Retrospective analysis of type I g-NEN patients across two European Neuroendocrine Tumour Society Centers of Excellence 2003-2019. RESULTS Following initial assessment, 87 of 115 patients with type I g-NEN (75 with polyps ≤10 mm) received no initial treatment and underwent endoscopic surveillance. 79/87 (91%) demonstrated no clinically meaningful change in tumour size or grade over a median 62 month follow up. Only two patients developed NEN progression that required a change in management and two other patients developed gastric adenocarcinoma/high grade dysplasia; all four initially had ≥11 mm g-NENs. CONCLUSIONS Patients with ≤10 mm type I g-NENs were unlikely to develop clinically significant tumour progression and in most cases, resection was not needed. The endoscopic surveillance interval could therefore potentially be safely increased to every 2-3 years in such patients. However, lifelong surveillance is still advocated due to the additional risk of developing gastric adenocarcinoma.

Abstract
Background: Brain metastases (BMs) in patients with extra-pulmonary neuroendocrine neoplasms (EP–NENs) are rare, and limited clinical information is available. The aim of this study was to detail the clinicopathological features, management and outcomes in patients with EP–NENs who developed BMs. Methods: A retrospective single-centre analysis of consecutive patients with EP–NENs (August 2004–February 2020) was conducted. Median overall survival (OS)/survival from BMs diagnosis was estimated (Kaplan–Meier). Results: Of 730 patients, 17 (1.9%) had BMs, median age 61 years (range 15–77); 8 (53%) male, unknown primary NEN site: 40%. Patients with BMs had grade 3 (G3) EP–NENs 11 (73%), G2: 3 (20%), G1: 1 (7%). Eight (53%) had poorly differentiated NENs, 6 were well-differentiated and 1 was not recorded. Additionally, 2 (13%) patients had synchronous BMs at diagnosis, whilst 13 (87%) developed BMs metachronously. The relative risk of developing BMs was 7.48 in patients with G3 disease vs. G1 + G2 disease (p = 0.0001). Median time to the development of BMs after NEN diagnosis: 15.9 months (range 2.5–139.5). Five patients had a solitary BM, 12 had multiple BMs. Treatment of BMs were surgery (n = 3); radiotherapy (n = 5); 4: whole brain radiotherapy, 1: conformal radiotherapy (orbit). Nine (53%) had best supportive care. Median OS from NEN diagnosis was 23.6 months [95% CI 15.2–31.3]; median time to death from BMs diagnosis was 3.0 months [95% CI 0.0–8.3]. Conclusion: BMs in patients with EP–NENs are rare and of increased risk in G3 vs. G1 + G2 EP–NENs. Survival outcomes are poor, and a greater understanding is needed to improve therapeutic outcomes.

Abstract
BackgroundTislelizumab, an anti-PD-1 monoclonal antibody, demonstrated clinical activity and was well-tolerated in patients with previously treated advanced hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) in the Phase 2 RATIONALE-208 study (NCT03419897). We explored whether baseline neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) and platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio (PLR) or their post-treatment change correlated with clinical efficacy of tislelizumab treatment.MethodsEligible patients (>18 years) who had received ≥1 prior line of systemic therapy for advanced HCC were administered open-label tislelizumab (200 mg) intravenously every 3 weeks until no further clinical benefit was observed. NLR and PLR were assessed using peripheral blood samples collected at baseline, Cycle 2 Day 1 (C2D1), C3D1, and C4D1. Survival analysis (progression free survival [PFS] and overall survival [OS]) was conducted by Kaplan-Meier method and survival rate at risk was compared by log rank test. Logistic regression was used to analyze association of post-treatment change of NLR or PLR with objective response rate (ORR). In the baseline analysis, median NLR or PLR in this study was used as a cut-off. All statistical analysis results are post-hoc exploratory and thereby p values are descriptive.ResultsOverall, 249 patients were enrolled, of which 249, 234, 203, and 186 patients had evaluable NLR and PLR data at baseline, C2D1, C3D1, and C4D1, respectively. Analysis of NLR at baseline, using median NLR (3.2) as cut-off, demonstrated higher OS (p=0.0024) and PFS (p=0.071) in NLR-low versus NLR-high groups (median OS [mOS]:17.4 versus 9.9 months; median PFS [mPFS]: 2.8 versus 1.5 months). Analysis of PLR at baseline, using median PLR (141.4) as cut-off, showed higher OS (p=0.0085) and PFS (p<0.0001) in PLR-low versus PLR-high groups (mOS: 16.2 versus 10.8 months; mPFS: 2.8 versus 1.4 months). In post-treatment analysis, patients with decreased NLR or PLR at C2D1, C3D1 or C4D1 had higher ORR (table 1) and longer OS (figure 1) compared with patients with increased NLR or PLR at each timepoint.Abstract 362 Table 1Post-treatment decreases in NLR or PLR were associated with response to tislelizumab monotherapyAbstract 362 Figure 1Post-treatment decreases in NLR or PLR were associated with improved OS following tislelizumab monotherapyConclusionsIn patients with previously treated advanced HCC that received tislelizumab monotherapy, lower baseline NLR or PLR was associated with longer OS and PFS, and post-treatment decreases of NLR or PLR were associated with higher ORR and longer OS. These observations support NLR and PLR as potential prognostic biomarkers in patients with advanced HCC treated with tislelizumab and will be further investigated in an on-going Phase 3 study (NCT03412773).AcknowledgementsThis study is sponsored by BeiGene Ltd.

Abstract
4039 Background: Despite potentially curative surgery, long-term survival from OGC remains poor due to high relapse rate. Neoadjuvant (naFLOT) and adjuvant (aFLOT) FLOT is currently standard treatment for resectable OGC based on data from the FLOT-4 trial. We explored whether TRG was associated with FLOT-outcome using RWD. Methods: Pts with OGC treated with naFLOT +/- aFLOT at a tertiary UK centre were identified following institutional board approval. Clinical and laboratory data were extracted from the patient record. TRG was evaluated by a histopathologist. Median overall survival (OS) and median progression-free survival (PFS) were evaluated using Kaplan-Meier and Log-rank tests; time taken from start of naFLOT, and associations between factors with Fisher’s exact (FE) test. Results: 171 pts were identified, median FU 30 mths. 144 (84%) male; median age 66 (32-84); oesophagus 66 (38%), junctional (GOJ) 73 (43%), gastric 32 (19%); stage IB 3 (2%), stage IIB 26 (15%), stage III 91 (53%), stage IVA 47 (28%) and unknown 4 (2%). Pts had median of 2 comorbidities (range 0-6); performance status (PS) 0: 95 (56%), PS 1: 71 (41%), PS 2: 3 (2%) and PS unknown 2 (1%). 132/171 pts completed 4 cycles of naFLOT and this was significantly associated with undergoing surgery (p = 0.02). Those who had surgery (140/171) had significantly improved PFS (not reached (NR) vs. 6 mths; 95% CI 2-10; p < 0.001) and OS (NR vs. 12 mths; 95% CI 6-18; p < 0.001). TRG was reported for 126/140 patients who underwent surgery. TRG 1/2 (42/126) vs. TRG ≥3 was significantly associated with improved PFS (NR vs. 35 mths; 95% CI NR; p < 0.001) and OS (median NR either group; p < 0.001). Pts with TRG 1/2 who commenced aFLOT (≥1 cycle; n = 31/42) or completed 4 cycles of aFLOT (17/31) did not have improved PFS or OS vs. those who did not. Those with TRG ≥3 who commenced aFLOT (≥1 cycle; n = 62/85) had improved PFS (median NR vs. 22 mths; 95% CI 13-31 p = 0.006) and OS (median NR vs. 25 mths; 95% CI 18-32 p = 0.019). Those with TRG ≥3 who completed 4 cycles of aFLOT (n = 38/62) had significantly improved PFS (median NR vs. 25 mths; 95% CI 14-36 p = 0.016) and OS (median NR vs. 36 mths; 95% CI 16-55 p = 0.012). There was no difference in PFS or OS in pts with TRG ≥3 who had a dose reduction at any time during aFLOT. Conclusions: TRG is a predictor of outcome following naFLOT + surgery with superior outcomes in those with TRG 1/2. Our analyses suggest that only pts with TRG >3 following naFLOT + surgery benefit from adjuvant FLOT. Prospective randomised studies are required to confirm whether pts with TRG 1/2 require treatment with aFLOT.

Abstract
336 Background: The potential role of ctDNA to identify residual disease after potentially curative resection has been suggested in some malignancies; its role in resected pancreatico(P)-biliary(B) malignancies is unknown. Methods: Patients diagnosed with PB malignancies underwent molecular profiling (ctDNA) using FoundationMedicine Liquid (72 cancer-related genes) following potentially curative resection. Baseline patient characteristics and molecular profiling outcomes, including mutant allele frequency (MAF) for pathological alterations were extracted. Primary objective: prevalence of ctDNA identification and its correlation with recurrence (relapse-free survival (RFS) and relapse rate). Results: Total of 11 individuals had ctDNA analysed following potentially curative resection for PB malignancies: 8 B (4 extra-hepatic cholangiocarcinoma (eCCA), 2 ampulla, 1 intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (iCCA), 1 gallbladder cancer (GBC)) and 3 P. Baseline characteristics: 6 female (54.55%), median age 71.59 years (range 39.98-81.19). Most were pT2 (45.45%), pN0 (54.55%) and R0 (63.64%). Following surgery, 6 patients were started on adjuvant chemotherapy; at the end of follow-up (data cut-off 25/6/2020; median follow-up 11.15 months (range 5.45-13.52); 5 relapsed (45.45%) and 2 died (18.18%). Estimated median RFS was 11.43 months (95% CI 2.28-not reached); median overall survival was not reached. No sample failed ctDNA analysis; presence of ctDNA was identified in 3/11 (27.27%) of the samples; 2 and 1 samples had 2 and 1 pathological alterations identified, respectively: ALK fusion (1 sample; GBC), TP53 mutation (2 samples; eCCA and GBC), CHEK2 mutation (1 sample; pancreas), IDH2 mutation (1 sample; eCCA). Mean maximum MAF was 1.47 (2 in biliary; 0.43 in pancreas). Variants of unknown significance were identified in 72.73% of the samples (87.5% in B; 33.33% in P; p-value 0.152). None of the baseline characteristics explored correlated with presence of ctDNA. There was a trend towards increased relapse risk in the patients with ctDNA present following potentially curative surgery; Cox regression for RFS [HR 2.64 (95% CI 0.36-19.31); median RFS 11.44 months (95% CI 2.28-not reached) vs 10.87 (95% CI 2.21-not reached)]; relapse rate 37.5% (ctDNA absent) vs 66.67% (ctDNA present); statistical significance was not reached (p-value 0.340 and p-value 0.545, respectively). Conclusions: This pilot study demonstrates the feasibility of testing for ctDNA following potentially curative resection in PB malignancies. Presence of ctDNA may be associated with increased relapse risk; further studies are required to increase sample size and assess clinical implications.

Abstract
425 Background: Molecular profiling of tumour samples and circulating tumour DNA (ctDNA) may inform treatment of advanced cancer; the role of ctDNA to predict progression-free-survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) in advanced PDAC is not fully understood. Methods: Eligible patients: those diagnosed with advanced PDAC undergoing molecular profiling [tumour (Foundation Medicine CDx/Caris) or ctDNA (FoundationMedicine Liquid (72 cancer-related genes))]. Baseline patient characteristics and molecular profiling outcomes, including mutant allele frequency (MAF) for pathological alterations were extracted. The primary aim was to assess the impact of presence of ctDNA at time of systemic chemotherapy initiation on PFS and OS. Results: Total of 26 samples (ctDNA 18 samples and 8 tumour samples) from 25 patients diagnosed with advanced PDAC underwent molecular profiling. When the whole population was analysed, the rate of sample analysis failure seemed to be higher when tumour tissue was tested (37.5%) compared to ctDNA (5.56%); p-value 0.072. The overall rate of identification of pathological findings was 72.73%, with 18.18% of patients having targetable findings [EGFRmut (1 patient), KRAS G12C mut (1 patient), FGFR2 fusion (1 patient), RNF43 mut (1 patient)]; these findings impacted treatment management in one patient only (RNF43 mutation; Wnt inhibitor). Variants of unknown significance were identified in 63.64% of samples. Patients with ctDNA analysis at time of palliative chemotherapy initiation (16 samples; 15 patients) were analysed [6 female (40.00%), median age 69.57 years (range 51.61-81.49), metastatic disease (66.67%), 80% first-line (80%), 20% second-line]. Pathological mutations were identified in 9/15 (60.00%) of these patients (KRAS mutation identified in 6/9). After median follow-up of 8.33 months from sample acquisition, 80% and 53.33% of patients had progressed and died, respectively. Median estimated PFS and OS were 5.65 months (95% CI 1.59-8.17) and 7.80 months (95% CI 4.13-not reached). Presence (vs absence) of pathological alterations in ctDNA showed a trend towards shorter PFS (2.91 vs 6.51 months; HR 1.38 (95% CI 0.40-4.77)) and OS (6.12 vs 9.72 months; HR 2.03 (95% CI 0.60-6.82)). Conclusions: This pilot study demonstrates the feasibility of ctDNA analysis in patients with advanced PDAC prior to initiation of palliative therapy. The presence of pathological alterations in ctDNA may prognosticate for worse PFS and OS. Larger studies are required to confirm these findings.

Abstract
348 Background: The proportion of females in medicine is increasing (approx. 50% in medical school/workforce), but disparities in female authorship in oncology research publications exist; female corresponding authorship reportedly ranges from 7.2-39.1% in oncology clinical trials (Ludmir et al 2019). This study aimed to describe and assess factors associated with female first and senior authorship in later phase systemic clinical trials in BTC and to identify any changes over time. Methods: Embase/Medline were used to identify final primary trial publications in BTC (2000-2020) (excluding phase I (PI) (expected to move to later phase), mixed tumour site trials, reviews, editorials and trial-in-progress publications). Gender was determined by inspection of names, google search and author communication. Chi-square tests and log regression were used to assess factors associated with female first and senior authorship, including changes over time (STATA16). Results: Of 501 publications, 163 met inclusion criteria; 80% single-arm PII and 15% and 5% randomised PII and PIII respectively; 73% enrolled ≤50 patients. Tumour primary sites were all BTC: 86%, cholangiocarcinoma: 8%, gallbladder cancer: 6%; 80% involved chemotherapy, 13% targeted therapy and 5% localised/systemic combinations; 65% were in first-line (1L) advanced setting, 17% post 1L, 13% advanced non-specified and 5% neo-adjuvant/adjuvant. Forty-eight percent received industry funding and 65% met primary end-point. Sixty-four percent were published post ABC-02 (Valle et al 2010). Publication impact factor (IF) was ≤5 in 50% and >20 in 12%. Median number of authors in all publications was 11. Geographic location of all first and senior authors were Asia (42%/42%), Europe (29%/29%), USA (24%/22%) and other (4%/6%), respectively. Median individual trial female author representation was 25%; there were no female authors in 12% of trials. Overall, female first and senior author representation was 21% and 11%, respectively. Median position of first female author was second. In publications with IF ≤20 and >20, there were 22% and 16% female first and 13% and 0% female senior authors, respectively. The phase of trial, journal IF, industry funding, or whether met primary end-point did not impact female first or senior author representation (all P>.05). There were more female senior authors associated with “other” geographic locations (40% in 10 trials) (P=.016) vs Asia (7%), Europe (8%) and USA (14%). There were no significant changes in female first or senior author representation over time (‘00-05: 21%/18%, ‘06-10: 27%/5%, ‘11-15: 15%/15%, ‘16-20: 22%/9%, P=.738, and P=.508 respectively). Conclusions: Female first and senior author representation in later phase systemic clinical trial publications in BTC is low and has not changed significantly over time. The underlying reasons for this imbalance need to be better understood and addressed.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Pancreatic neuroendocrine tumours (panNETs) arise sporadically or as part of a genetic predisposition syndrome. CT/MRI, endoscopic ultrasonography and functional imaging using Octreoscan localise and stage disease. This study aimed to evaluate the complementary role of 68Gallium (68Ga)-DOTA PET/CT in managing patients with panNETs. DESIGN A retrospective study conducted across three tertiary UK NET referral centres. METHODS Demographic, clinical, biochemical, cross-sectional and functional imaging data were collected from patients who had undergone a 68Ga-DOTA PET/CT scan for a suspected panNET. RESULTS We collected data for 183 patients (97 male): median (SD) age 63 (14.9) years, 89.1 vs. 9.3% (n=163 vs. 17) alive vs. dead (3 data missing), 141 sporadic vs. 42 familial (MEN1, n=36; 85.7%) panNETs. Non-functional vs. functional tumours comprised 73.2 vs. 21.3% (n=134 vs. 39) (10 missing). Histological confirmation was available in 89% of individuals (n=163) but tumour grading (Ki67 classiifcation) was technically possible only in a smaller cohort (n=143): grade 1, 50.3% (n=72); grade 2, 46.2% (n=66) and grade 3, 3.5% (n=5) (40 histopathological classification either not technically feasible or biopsy not perfomed). 60.1% (n=110) were localised, 14.2% (n=26) locally advanced and 23.5% (n=43) metastatic (4 missing). 224 68Ga-DOTA PET/CT scans were performed in total for: diagnosis/staging 40% (n=88), post-operative assessment/clinical surveillance 53% (n=117) and consideration of peptide receptor radionuclide therapy (PRRT) 8% (n=17) (2 missing). PET/CT results confirmed other imaging findings (53%), identified new disease sites (28.5%) and excluded suspected disease (5%). Overall, 68Ga-DOTA PET/CT imaging findings provided additional information in 119 (54%) patients and influenced management in 85 (39%) cases. CONCLUSION 68Ga-DOTA PET/CT imaging more accurately stages and guides treatment in patients with sporadic/familial panNETs with newly diagnosed/recurrent disease.

Abstract
Abstract
BACKGROUND
Brain metastases (BMs) incidence in patients with extra-pulmonary neuroendocrine neoplasms (EP-NENs) is unclear, with no available management recommendations. This study aimed to review the clinical presentation, management and survival outcomes of patients with EP-NENs and BMs at a European Centre of Excellence.
METHODS
A retrospective single-centre analysis of consecutive patients with EP-NENs (Aug 2004-Feb 2020) was conducted. Median overall survival (OS)/survival from BMs diagnosis were estimated (Kaplan Meier).
RESULTS
Of 786 patients, 15 (1.9%) had BMs, median age 61y (range 15–77); 8 (53%) male, primary NEN site: unknown 40%; oesophageal 13%; small bowel 13%; pancreas 13%; gastric 7%; cervix 7% and bladder 7%. Most patients with BMs had grade 3 (G3) NENs (11, 73%), 3 (20%) were G2 and 1 (7%)G1. Eight (53%) had poorly-differentiated NENs, 6 well-differentiated and 1 not recorded. Two (13%) patients had synchronous BMs at diagnosis, whilst 13 (87%) developed BMs metachronously. Median time to development of BMs after initial NEN diagnosis: 15.9 months (range 2.5–139.5). Five patients had a solitary BM, 4 had 2–9 lesions and 6 had >10 BMs. The most commonly affected sites were the cerebrum (13, 87%), cerebellum (6, 40%), leptomeninges (2, 13%) and orbit (1, 7%). The most common presenting symptoms were limb weakness, headache, confusion, visual disturbance (each n=3, 20%), seizures (2, 13%), word-finding difficulty (2, 13%) and facial weakness/ptosis (1, 7%). Median OS from initial NEN diagnosis was 23.6-months [95%-CI 15.2–31.3]; median time to death from BMs diagnosis was 3.0-months [95%-CI 0.0–8.3]. Treatment of BMs was surgery (n=3); radiotherapy (n=6); 5 had WBRT, one localised radiotherapy (orbit). Six (40%) had best supportive care.
CONCLUSION
BMs in patients with EP-NENs are rare and predominantly in G3 NENs, with diverse intracranial distribution. Although uncommon, BMs from NENs behave aggressively and greater understanding is needed to improve therapeutic outcomes.

Abstract
150 Background: PDAC is an aggressive cancer with median overall survival (OS) ~6 months (m). Methods: Pts with advanced PDAC due to start first-line chemo (Chx) completed 1 study survey and 2 quality of life (QoL) questionnaires (QLQ-C30 and PAN26) on 3 time-points: baseline (T1), before (T2) and after (T3) their 1st on-treatment CT scan, PIs filled in paired surveys T1/2/3. Results: 71 Pts and 12 PIs were recruited. 4% Pts died/deteriorated between consent and T1, 28% between T1 - T2 (~2.3m later), 13% between T2 - T3 (~1.3m), only 55% reached T3. 49% Pts preferred to share decision making with their PI, 31% Pts preferred to make the final decision about treatment after considering PI opinion. 86% Pts had personal goals to reach (12% PIs knew of these). 70% Pts were aware that Chx was unlikely to cure cancer however, they had much higher expectations than PIs (%, Table). Choosing between treatment options Pts prioritised: 54% OS, 26% balance between side-effects (SEs) and OS, 15% could not choose and 5% symptom control. These did not match with PIs (p<0.001). Pts who prioritised OS had higher symptom burden (p=0.03). OS was different in these Pts: who prioritised symptom control- OS 2.8m from T1, OS priority- 6.4m, could not choose- 8.7m and balance priority- 9.2m (p=0.01). At T1 Pts had low QoL (57/100, higher better). ‘Future worries’ and ‘planning of activities’ were scored the worst (58 and 56/100, lower better). Clinically significant (+/- 10p) worsening between T1/2/3 were: PF (10p), nausea/vomiting (NV, 12p), body image (18p p=0.01), taste (25p p=0.002). Financially 29% Pts were “a little/ lot” out of pocket at T1, 41% at T2 (p=0.036), 42% at T3 (p=0.034). Acceptability of SEs showed that least acceptable SEs (ranked 1-10, 10-least) were the ones Pts were already struggling with: NV (ranked 9/10, 46p/100 on QLQ), diarrhoea (8/10, 45/100); fatigue (less acceptable T3 (p=0.05), 46/100); appetite loss (7-8/10, 47/100). In contrast, most Pts (97%) were willing to take few/medium and around 50% large amount of SEs as a trade-off for extra time, whilst 9% PIs thought that Pts would accept excess SEs (p<0.001). Conclusions: Pts worry about future, have high symptom burden and high expectations of Chx. Pts want to be involved in decisions, but the contrasting views between Pts and PI show differing aims.

Abstract
e16545 Background: Purpose: The aim of this retrospective study was to assess the efficacy and toxicity of irinotecan +/- capecitabine for patients with metastatic esophago-gastric (EG) adenocarcinomas previously treated with at least two chemotherapy regimens including platinum-based, fluoropyramidines and taxanes. Introduction: Treatment for metastatic EG cancer beyond 2nd line remains controversial. Recently, the TAGS phase III trial (Shitara et al., 2018) showed overall survival benefit with Trifluridine/tipiracil of 2.1 months compared to placebo as a third line. Apatinib is also approved for use as third line in China (Li et al., 2013). Based on minimal evidence (Kang et al., 2013), irinotecan in combination with capecitabine is used in the UK. We performed a retrospective study to assess the efficacy and toxicity of irinotecan as a beyond 2nd line regime in metastatic EG adenocarcinomas in one of Europe’s largest cancer centres, The Christie. Methods: Data was collected retrospectively from all metastatic EG adenocarcinoma patients who were treated with irinotecan +/- capecitabine as a beyond 2nd line palliative treatment at the Christie Hospital from January 2014 to December 2019. Irinotecan was either given 2 or 3 weekly at dose of 180 mg/m² with or without capecitabine 800 mg/m². Response rate (RR) was calculated according to RECIST version 1.1, overall survival measured and toxicity data collected. Results: Fifty-six patients received irinotecan as beyond 2nd line palliative chemotherapy. Out of the thirty-seven patients with measurable disease on their scans, the overall response rate was 8.1% and the disease control rate was 51.4% as per RECIST 1.1. Median overall survival was 5 months (95% CI 4.2-5.8). The presence of grade 3-4 toxicities was 16% (9 patients) and included neutropenia, fatigue, nausea and diarrhea. On average, 3.7 cycles were administered, 32% (18 patients) required dose reductions, mainly secondary to grade 2 diarrhea and fatigue. Conclusions: Irinotecan in combination with capecitabine is efficacious as a beyond 2nd line regime in metastatic EG with an acceptable toxicity profile with a limited role in patients with resistant disease to first line platinum-based chemotherapies with fluoropyramidines.

Abstract
TPS4661 Background: Liposomal irinotecan administered with 5-fluorouracil/leucovorin (5-FU/LV) is approved in the USA for metastatic pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (mPDAC) following progression with gemcitabine-based therapy. A phase 1/2 study in previously untreated locally advanced/metastatic PDAC showed promising anti-tumor activity with liposomal irinotecan 50 mg/m2 free base + 5-FU 2400 mg/m2 + LV 400 mg/m2 + oxaliplatin (OX) 60 mg/m2 on days 1 and 15 of a 28-day cycle (Wainberg et al. Ann Oncol 2019;30 Suppl 4: SO-005). Herein, we present the design of the phase 3 NAPOLI-3 study investigating the efficacy and safety of this regimen as first-line therapy in patients with mPDAC. Methods: NAPOLI-3 (NCT04083235) is a phase 3, open-label, randomized, global study in adults with histologically/cytologically confirmed pancreatic adenocarcinoma not previously treated in the metastatic setting. Patients are required to have one or more metastatic tumors measurable with computed tomography/magnetic resonance imaging and an Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance status score of 0–1. Site activation began in Dec 2019 and enrollment is ongoing. Random allocation (1:1) of 750 patients is planned to liposomal irinotecan + 5-FU/LV + OX (regimen as per phase 1/2 study) or nab-paclitaxel 125 mg/m2 + gemcitabine 1000 mg/m2 on days 1, 8 and 15 in a 28-day cycle. The primary endpoint is overall survival (OS). Secondary endpoints (progression-free survival [PFS] and overall response rate assessed with Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors v1.1 criteria) will be compared only if the primary endpoint shows superiority for liposomal irinotecan + 5-FU/ LV + OX over nab-paclitaxel + gemcitabine. Safety assessments include adverse-event monitoring. Patients will continue treatment until disease progression, unacceptable toxicity or study withdrawal, and will then be followed for survival every 2 months until death or study end (when all patients have died, withdrawn consent or are lost to follow-up). Clinical trial information: NCT04083235 .

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Poorly differentiated (PD), extrapulmonary (EP), neuroendocrine carcinomas (NECs) are rare but aggressive neuroendocrine neoplasms. First-line treatment for advanced disease is an etoposide and platinum-based chemotherapy combination. There is no established second-line treatment for patients with PD-EP-NEC, and this is an area of unmet need. METHODS AND ANALYSIS NET-02 is a UK, multicentre, randomised (1:1), parallel group, open-label, phase II, single-stage selection trial of liposomal irinotecan (nal-IRI)/5-fluorouracil (5-FU)/folinic acid or docetaxel as second-line therapy in patients with progressive PD-EP-NEC. One hundred and two eligible participants will be randomised to receive either nal-IRI/5-FU/folinic acid or docetaxel. The primary objective is to determine the 6-month progression-free survival (PFS) rate. The secondary objectives of this study are to determine PFS, overall survival, objective response rate, toxicity, quality of life and whether neuron-specific enolase is predictive of treatment response. If either treatment is found to have a 6-month PFS rate of at least 25%, that treatment will be considered for a phase III trial. If both treatments meet this target, prespecified selection criteria will be applied to establish which treatment to take forward. ETHICS AND DISSEMINATION This study has ethical approval from the Greater Manchester Central Research Ethics Committee (reference no. 18/NW/0031) and clinical trial authorisation from the Medicine and Healthcare Products Regulatory Agency. Results will be published in peer-reviewed journals and uploaded to the European Union Clinical Trials Register. TRIAL REGISTRATION NUMBERS ISRCTN10996604, NCT03837977, EudraCT Number: 2017-002453-11.

Abstract
499 Background: Regorafenib was the first treatment to demonstrate a survival benefit in patients with HCC after progression on sorafenib. The RESORCE trial found that regorafenib improved overall survival with acceptable toxicity, in patients with disease progression on sorafenib who tolerated ≥400mg sorafenib daily and had Child-Pugh A liver function. Methods: We performed a multicentre, retrospective, observational study of patients with HCC receiving regorafenib in the UK, following its availability in April 2018. Results: Data on a total of 104 patients were included from April 2018–August 2019, and 80.8% were male. Age was collected in 85 patients, with a median of 68 years (range 22–86). 23.5% had NAFLD, 21.2% had ALD, 12.9% had HBV, and 3.5% had HCV. Prior management included sorafenib (100%), TACE (30.8%), resection (12.9%). Duration of sorafenib treatment was evaluable in 99/104 patients, and reported a median of 8.7 months (range 1.8–76.6). Duration of regorafenib treatment was evaluable in 92/104 patients, and reported a median of 3.9 months (range 0.0–15.7). Following treatment with regorafenib, 6 patients (5.8%) achieved partial response, 37 (35.6%) achieved stable disease and 45 (43.3%) had progressive disease as the best response. 15 (14.4%) were not assessed and 1 (1.1%) had mixed response. Survival data is immature with 62/101 (61.4%) patients alive at the time of census with median survival currently 6.5 months. Fatigue was the most frequent AE, with 69/88 patients (85.2%) for all grades. 12/88 patients (14.8%) had Grade 3 fatigue. Other significant AEs include hand-foot syndrome (6/85 patients [7.3%] had Grade 3) and diarrhoea (4/83 patients [4.9%] had Grade 3). Conclusions: The population in our real-world experience of regorafenib for HCC had a similar duration of prior sorafenib to those in the RESORCE trial. However, there was different balance of aetiologies with a lower proportion of patients with HBV and HCV. The rate of partial response is similar to the RESORCE trial with fewer patients achieving stable disease. The incidence of fatigue was higher, but the incidence of hand-foot syndrome and diarrhoea were lower. Further expansion and follow-up of this population is warranted.

Abstract
TPS462 Background: Esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) is the predominant histological subtype of esophageal cancer, particularly in Asian countries. Inhibition of the PD-1/PD-L1 axis has demonstrated antitumor activity in patients with advanced unresectable or metastatic ESCC. Tislelizumab, an investigational humanized IgG4 monoclonal antibody with high affinity and binding specificity for PD-1, was engineered to minimize binding to FcγR on macrophages in order to abrogate antibody-dependent phagocytosis, a mechanism of T-cell clearance and potential resistance to anti-PD-1 therapy. Results from early phase clinical studies suggest tislelizumab, as a single agent or in combination with chemotherapy, was generally well tolerated and had antitumor activity in patients with solid tumors, including ESCC. Methods: This global, phase 3, randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blind study (NCT03783442) is designed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of tislelizumab plus chemotherapy as first-line treatment of unresectable, locally advanced recurrent or metastatic ESCC. Adult patients with histologically confirmed unresectable ESCC, or locally advanced recurrent/metastatic disease with a ≥6 month treatment-free interval, are eligible; palliative radiation administered > 4 weeks from study initiation is allowed. Patients who received prior anti-PD-(L)1, anti-PD-L2, or first-line therapy are ineligible. Patients (n≈480) will be randomized 1:1 to receive tislelizumab 200 mg IV every 3 weeks (Q3W) plus investigator-chosen chemotherapy (ICC) or placebo plus ICC. ICC options include: platinum (plat; cisplatin 60-80 mg/m2 or oxaliplatin 130 mg/m2 IV Q3W) + 5-FU 750-800 mg/m2 by continuous IV infusion over 24 hours for 5d Q3W; or plat + capecitabine 1000 mg/m2 orally BID for 14d Q3W; or plat + paclitaxel 175 mg/m2 IV Q3W. Progression-free and overall survival are primary endpoints; secondary endpoints include objective response rate, duration of response, and health-related quality of life. Safety will be assessed by monitoring adverse events, physical examinations, vital signs, and electrocardiograms. This study is actively enrolling. Clinical trial information: NCT03783442.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Preclinical, epidemiological, and randomised data indicate that aspirin might prevent tumour development and metastasis, leading to reduced cancer mortality, particularly for gastro-oesophageal and colorectal cancer. Randomised trials evaluating aspirin use after primary radical therapy are ongoing. We present the pre-planned feasibility analysis of the run-in phase of the Add-Aspirin trial to address concerns about toxicity, particularly bleeding after radical treatment for gastro-oesophageal cancer. METHODS The Add-Aspirin protocol includes four phase 3 randomised controlled trials evaluating the effect of daily aspirin on recurrence and survival after radical cancer therapy in four tumour cohorts: gastro-oesophageal, colorectal, breast, and prostate cancer. An open-label run-in phase (aspirin 100 mg daily for 8 weeks) precedes double-blind randomisation (for participants aged under 75 years, aspirin 300 mg, aspirin 100 mg, or matched placebo in a 1:1:1 ratio; for patients aged 75 years or older, aspirin 100 mg or matched placebo in a 2:1 ratio). A preplanned analysis of feasibility, including recruitment rate, adherence, and toxicity was performed. The trial is registered with the International Standard Randomised Controlled Trials Number registry (ISRCTN74358648) and remains open to recruitment. FINDINGS After 2 years of recruitment (October, 2015, to October, 2017), 3494 participants were registered (115 in the gastro-oesophageal cancer cohort, 950 in the colorectal cancer cohort, 1675 in the breast cancer cohort, and 754 in the prostate cancer cohort); 2719 (85%) of 3194 participants who had finished the run-in period proceeded to randomisation, with rates consistent across tumour cohorts. End of run-in data were available for 2253 patients; 2148 (95%) of the participants took six or seven tablets per week. 11 (0·5%) of the 2253 participants reported grade 3 toxicity during the run-in period, with no upper gastrointestinal bleeding (any grade) in the gastro-oesophageal cancer cohort. The most frequent grade 1-2 toxicity overall was dyspepsia (246 [11%] of 2253 participants). INTERPRETATION Aspirin is well-tolerated after radical cancer therapy. Toxicity has been low and there is no evidence of a difference in adherence, acceptance of randomisation, or toxicity between the different cancer cohorts. Trial recruitment continues to determine whether aspirin could offer a potential low cost and well tolerated therapy to improve cancer outcomes.

Abstract
TPS4158 Background: The prognosis for pts with PD-EP-NEC is poor. First-line treatment for advanced disease is etoposide/platinum-based chemotherapy, analogous to that of high grade lung NEC, with no standard second-line treatment, and is an area of unmet need. Methods: This is a multi-centre, randomised, phase II trial of nal-IRI; 80mg/m2 intravenously (IV) over 90 mins, prior to 5-FU; 2400 mg/m2 infusion over 46 hrs and folinic acid, Q14 days, or docetaxel; 75mg/m2 IV over 60 mins, Q21 days, as second-line therapy in pts with progressive PD-EP-NEC (Ki-67 > 20%), with the overall aim of selecting a treatment for continuation to a phase III trial. The standard arm is that used in high-grade lung NEC, of which docetaxel is a second-line therapy option (NCCN guidelines) and combination regimens such as Irinotecan/5-FU are a second-line therapy option currently used without trial evidence for this subset of pts. Pts must have had prior treatment with first-line platinum-based chemotherapy, have documented disease progression and have an ECOG performance status of ≤2. This study plans to recruit 102 pts from 16 UK centres (over 37 mths). Primary endpoint is 6-mth progression-free survival (PFS) rate; trial is designed to have an 80% chance of demonstrating that the one-sided 95% confidence interval of the 6 mth PFS rate excludes 15%, if the true rate is at least 30%, where 30% is the required level of efficacy, and a rate of < 15% would give grounds for rejection. If both treatment arms exceed the required level of efficacy to warrant further evaluation in a phase III trial, treatment with the higher PFS rate at 6 mths will be selected. Secondary endpoints include overall survival, objective response rate, toxicity, quality of life, serum neuron-specific enolase. Exploratory endpoints include quantification of circulating tumour cells (CTCs), circulating tumour deoxyribonucleic acid (ctDNA) and molecular profiling of CTCs, ctDNA and tumour tissue, and generation of CTC-derived xenografts. This trial is open and has enrolled 6 pts at time of submission. Clinical trial information: 10996604.

Abstract
TPS2656 Background: ESCC remains the predominant histological subtype of, and accounts for most deaths from, esophageal cancer. PD-1 inhibition has demonstrated antitumor activity and was generally well tolerated in patients (pts) with advanced unresectable or metastatic ESCC. Tislelizumab, an investigational anti-PD-1 antibody, was engineered to minimize binding to FcγR on macrophages to abrogate antibody-dependent phagocytosis, a mechanism of T-cell clearance and potential resistance to anti-PD-1 therapy. Results from early phase clinical studies suggest single-agent tislelizumab was generally well tolerated and had antitumor activity in pts with solid tumors, including ESCC. Methods: This phase 3, randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blind study (NCT03783442) is designed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of tislelizumab plus chemotherapy as first-line treatment of unresectable, locally advanced recurrent or metastatic ESCC. Adult pts with histologically confirmed ESCC that had metastatic disease either at first diagnosis or with a ≥6 month treatment-free interval will be eligible. Additional eligibility criteria include measurable/evaluable disease, ECOG performance score ≤1, and no prior anti-PD-(L)-1, PD-L2, or other first-line therapy or palliative radiation treatment ≤4 weeks before treatment. Approximately 480 pts will be randomized 1:1 to receive investigator-chosen chemotherapy (ICC) plus tislelizumab 200 mg IV Q3W or ICC plus placebo. Chemotherapy options include: platinum (cisplatin 60–80 mg/m2 or oxaliplatin 130 mg/m2 IV Q3W) plus 5-FU 750–800 mg/m2 IV daily for 5 days Q3W; or platinum plus capecitabine 1000 mg/m2 orally BID for 14 days Q3W; or platinum + paclitaxel 175 mg/m2 IV Q3W. Progression-free survival and overall survival are coprimary endpoints; secondary endpoints include objective response rate, duration of response, and health-related quality-of-life. Safety will be assessed by monitoring adverse events, physical examinations, vital signs, and electrocardiograms. This study is actively enrolling. Clinical trial information: NCT03783442.

Abstract
AIM To compare health-related quality of life (HRQoL), anxiety, depression, and impulsivity scores in patients with and without carcinoid syndrome (CS), and correlated them with serum 5-hydroxyindoleacetic acid (5-HIAA) levels.
METHODS Patients with advanced gastroenteropancreatic neuroendocrine tumours (GEPNET), with and without CS completed HRQoL QLQ-C30 and QLQ-GI.NET21, Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS) and Barratt Impulsivity Scale (BIS) questionnaires. Two-sample Wilcoxon test was applied to assess differences in serum 5-HIAA levels, two-sample Mann-Whitney U test for HRQoL and BIS, and proportion test for HADS, between those with and without CS.
RESULTS Fifty patients were included; 25 each with and without CS. Median 5-HIAA in patients with and without CS was 367nmol/L and 86nmol/L, respectively (P = 0.003). Scores related to endocrine symptoms were significantly higher amongst patients with CS (P = 0.04) and scores for disease-related worries approached significance in the group without CS, but no other statistically-significant differences were reported between patients with and without CS in responses on QLQ-C30 or QLQ-GI.NET21. Fifteen patients (26%) scored ≥ 8/21 on anxiety scale, and 6 (12%) scored ≥ 8/21 on depression scale. There was no difference in median 5-HIAA between those scoring < or ≥ 8/21 on anxiety scale (P = 0.53). There were no statistically significant differences between groups in first or second-order factors (BIS) or total sum (P = 0.23).
CONCLUSION Excepting endocrine symptoms, there were no significant differences in HRQoL, anxiety, depression or impulsivity between patients with advanced GEPNET, with or without CS. Over one quarter of patients had high anxiety scores, unrelated to peripheral serotonin metabolism.

Abstract
459 Background: Results from NAPOLI-1 (NCT01494506), a phase 3 study in pts with mPDAC previously treated with gemcitabine-based therapy, demonstrated an improvement in OS (primary endpoint), progression-free survival, and objective response rate with nal-IRI+5-FU/LV vs 5-FU/LV. The MPACT study reported a nomogram to predict OS using baseline pt variables in previously untreated mPDAC. We conducted an exploratory post hoc analysis of NAPOLI-1 variables to develop a nomogram to predict OS in the post-gemcitabine setting. Methods: In NAPOLI-1, pts were randomized to receive nal-IRI 80 mg/m2 q2w + 5-FU/LV, nal-IRI 100 mg/m2 q3w, or 5-FU/LV. Univariate and multivariate analyses determined factors significantly predictive of OS. A multivariable Cox model was created using these factors to develop a nomogram that assigned points equal to the weighted sum of relative significance of each variable. Predictive accuracy of the nomogram as measured by the concordance index (c-index) was evaluated by internal bootstrap validation. Results: Data from the 417-pt univariate analysis and 399-pt multivariate analysis (18 pts excluded for missing baseline data) were used. Eight of 21 variables were retained in the multivariate analysis (p < 0.01 except BMI [p=0.08]). Conclusions: In NAPOLI-1, predictors of OS were nal-IRI+5-FU/LV treatment, KPS, NLR, albumin level, baseline CA19-9, stage 4 at diagnosis, BMI, and presence of liver metastasis. The nomogram, which will distinguish between risk groups and may aid in clinical decision making, will be presented in the poster. Clinical trial information: NCT01494506. [Table: see text]

Abstract
379 Background: We report an exploratory, post hoc subgroup analysis in pts with BPI and BAU data receiving nal-IRI+5-FU/LV, nal-IRI or 5-FU/LV in NAPOLI-1 (NCT01494506). In this pivotal trial, nal-IRI+5-FU/LV improved median OS (mOS) vs. 5-FU/LV (6.1 vs. 4.2 mo [HR=0.67; p=0.012]). Methods: BPI/BAU included an average of 3-7 days pt-recorded data before randomisation. Greater values indicated greater pain for BPI using a 100 mm visual analogue scale. BAU was converted to morphine equivalent mg/day. Results: Of 417 ITT pts, 295 had BPI and 299 had BAU data. Mean and median BPI were 28.6 and 25.0, respectively, and BAU were 33.3 and 8.1 mg/day, respectively. The percentage of pts with KPS ≥ 80 was higher in ≤ mean/≤ median (n=159/148) BPI groups vs. > mean/> median (n=136/147) BPI groups (96-97 vs. 83%) and in ≤mean/≤median (n=207/150) BAU groups vs. > mean/> median (n=92/149) BAU groups (95-97 vs. 82-85%). mOS and median PFS (mPFS) were higher for nal-IRI+5-FU/LV vs 5-FU/LV in all groups, with ≤ mean/≤ median BPI or BAU showing better outcomes vs. > mean/> median BPI or BAU (Table). Conclusions: BPI and BAU appear to have a prognostic effect on outcomes in mPDAC pts in the NAPOLI-1 study. No predictive effect was observed, with nal-IRI+5-FU/LV showing higher mOS vs. 5-FU/LV in all groups. Clinical trial information: NCT01494506. [Table: see text]

Abstract
388 Background: In NAPOLI-1 (NCT01494506), a randomized phase 3 study in patients with metastatic pancreatic cancer previously treated with gemcitabine-based therapy, nal-IRI+5-FU/LV improved overall survival (OS; primary endpoint) vs 5-FU/LV (6.1 mos vs 4.2 mos; HR = 0·67, 95% CI 0.490.92; P = 0.012). This exploratory analysis examined the impact of dose modifications or delays used to manage adverse events (AEs) on OS. The study protocol allowed ≤2 dose reductions for nal-IRI and 5-FU and for up to 3 weeks. Methods: Patient who had a dose delay or reduction within the planned first 6 weeks of the study were included. Delays were defined as any delay in dosing > 3 days from target dosing date and dose reductions were defined as any reduction in dose from initial administered dose. OS was compared within the nal-IRI+5-FU/LV arm and with the 5-FU/LV arm. Comparisons were made using the cohort of 5-FU/LV and nal-IRI+5-FU/LV patients enrolled under protocol version 2. Median OS was based on Kaplan-Meier estimates and Cox regression analysis was used to calculate HRs. Results: More patients in the nal-IRI+5-FU/LV treatment group experienced AEs that required dose delay and/or reduction than in the 5-FU/LV treatment group (62% vs 33%). Within the nal-IRI+5-FU/LV arm, median OS was numerically but not significantly different between patients who did (n = 34) vs did not (n = 83) have a dose reduction (9.3 vs 5.4 mos; HR = 0.66 [95% CI 0.43, 1.01]) and for those who did (n = 49) vs did not (n = 68) have a dose delay (8.4 vs 5.6 mos; 0.82 [95% CI 0.56, 1.23]). Between treatment arms, OS was greater in the nal-IRI+5-FU/LV arm regardless of dose delay or reduction (Table). Conclusions: Dose modifications in the nal-IRI+5-FU/LV arm did not significantly impact OS compared with those who did not need a dose modification, and OS remained greater than in 5-FU/LV-treated patients. This suggests that appropriate dose modification of nal-IRI+5-FU/LV for AEs may not adversely affect outcomes. Clinical trial information: NCT01494506. [Table: see text]

Abstract
460 Background: We report a post hoc, exploratory analysis of pts with BL ML number and LL data who received nal-IRI+5-FU/LV, nal-IRI or 5-FU/LV in NAPOLI-1, a pivotal, phase 3 trial (NCT01494506). nal-IRI+5-FU/LV increased median OS (mOS) vs 5-FU/LV (6.1 vs 4.2 mo [HR=0.67; p=0.012]). Methods: ML (1, 2, 3, >3) and LL were recorded (local investigator) at BL. Pts with >1 LL were counted for each location. Results: 354 of 417 ITT pts had measurable BL ML and 1,080 LL were recorded. There was no clear trend in the percentage of pts with KPS ≥80 in 1- >3 ML (range 87%-95%) or LL (range 89%-94%) subgroups. ML 1 (n=81), 2 (n=65) and 3 (n=24) subgroups were small. nal-IRI+5-FU/LV significantly improved mOS vs. 5-FU/LV in pts with 2/>3 ML (n=184/24); nal-IRI+5-FU/LV had numerically higher mOS vs. 5-FU/LV for all LL (Table). nal-IRI+5-FU/LV had favourable median PFS (mPFS) vs. 5-FU/LV in pts with 1–>3 ML (range 2.0-4.2 vs. 1.4-1.9 mo; HR range 0.35-0.88) and for all LL (range 2.8-4.2 vs. 1.4-2.0 mo; HR range 0.39-0.55). Conclusions: Low pt numbers across groups and repeat counting of pts in LL subgroups preclude firm conclusions on treatment efficacy, pending further analyses. Allowing for these limitations, we detected no clear prognostic effect on outcomes of higher BL ML number or LL in NAPOLI-1 ITT pts. nal-IRI+5-FU/LV improved mOS vs. 5-FU/LV in some ML groups and across LL groups; improvement in mPFS vs. 5-FU/LV in the ITT population was maintained in all subgroups. Clinical trial information: NCT01494506. [Table: see text]

Abstract
410 Background: We report prognostic evaluation of BL weight-associated parameters (body-mass index [BMI], body surface area [BSA] and weight) in pts with mPDAC after progression following gem-based therapy (NAPOLI-1 trial; NCT01494506). Pts received nal-IRI+5-FU/LV, nal-IRI monotherapy or 5-FU/LV in NAPOLI-1, an international, randomised, phase 3 trial; nal-IRI+5-FU/LV treatment resulted in a 45% increased median OS vs. 5-FU/LV (unstratified HR = 0.67; p = 0.012). Methods: This exploratory subgroup analysis compares outcomes by BL BMI, BSA and weight, using primary survival analysis data from the ITT population for all treatment arms combined (n = 417) and the nal-IRI+5-FU/LV arm on its own (n = 117). Results: OS and PFS were not significantly different between BL BMI, BSA and weight median subgroups in the entire NAPOLI-1 ITT population (HR range 1.06–1.15; log-rank p-value range 0.21–0.60; Table) and in the nal-IRI+5-FU/LV arm (HR range 0.94–1.19; log-rank p-value range 0.43–1.00). Conclusions: This post-hoc subgroup analysis did not detect any prognostic impact on treatment outcome by BL BMI, BSA and weight for mPDAC pts progressed following gem-based therapy. This observation rules out a treatment-independent effect. No evidence of a predictive effect on nal-IRI+5-FU/LV efficacy was found. Clinical trial information: NCT01494506. [Table: see text]
