223 Background: Radium 223 (Ra-223) is a FDA and EMA approved alpha particle radiopharmaceutical used to treat men with metastatic castrate resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) with symptomatic bone metastasis. In view of emerging systemic options, new EMA 2018 licence indication is for 3rd line onwards. We aim to evaluate the impact of systemic therapy sequencing on survival outcomes from a heterogeneous cohort of 228 patients treated with Ra-223 in a single UK centre. Methods: We prospectively collected data from 228 men underwent Ra-223 therapy for mCRPC between April 2014 and August 2018. Survival outcomes in relation to sequence of systemic treatment used prior to Ra-223 were analysed. Results: Medium age = 72 (51-87) years. Most patients (n = 142, 69%) received at least one systemic agent prior to Ra-223: docetaxel and/or cabaxitaxel chemotherapy (n = 60, 29%), abiraterone (n = 62, 30.1%) and enzalutamide (n = 67, 32.5%) in various sequences. No patients received concurrent Ra-223 /systemic treatment other than LHRH analogue. Key findings are summarized in table below. Conclusions: Our data demonstrated better survival trend in patients who received Ra-223 early. Patients who received prior chemotherapy have worse survival compared with those who were chemo-naïve likely due to bone marrow depletion. Ra-223 should not be offered to patients who have already had both cabaxitaxel and docetaxel as their medium survival is too poor to justify a treatment which takes 6 months to complete.[Table: see text]

e17540 Background: The clinical course in metastatic castrate-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) can be complicated when patients have disease progression after treatment with 2nd generation hormone therapy (2nd-HT), such as enzalutamide or abiraterone. Currently, limited data exist regarding the optimal choice of chemotherapy for mCRPC after failing 2nd-HT. We sought to evaluate three common chemotherapy regimens in this setting. Methods: We retrospectively identified 150 patients with mCRPC with disease progression on enzalutamide or abiraterone. 92 patients were chemo-naïve, while 58 patients had previously received docetaxel chemotherapy prior to 2nd-HT. After failing 2nd-HT, 90 patients received docetaxel-alone (group A), 33 patients received carboplatin plus docetaxel (group B), while 27 patients received cabazitaxel-alone (Group C). Favorable response was defined by ≥50% reduction in PSA level from baseline after a complete course of chemotherapy. Survival outcome was assessed for 30-month overall survival. Results: Mean (SD) age was 71.2 (8.28), 69.5(8.38) and 67.2 (8.36) for group (A), (B) and (C), respectively. Mean (SD) pre-chemotherapy PSA was 63.8 (138.18), 58.5 (118.15) and 53.7 (88.15) for group (A), (B) and (C), respectively. Mean (SD) Gleason score was 7.9 (1.1), 8.4 (0.88) and 8.1 (1.06) for group (A), (B) and (C), respectively. Patients in group (B) were 2.6 times more likely to have a favorable response compared to group (A) (OR = 2.625, 95%CI: 1.15 - 5.99) and almost 3 times compared to patients in group (C) (OR = 2.975, 95%CI: 1.04 – 8.54) (p-value = 0.0442). We report a Hazard Ratio (HR) of 3.1 (95% CI 1.31-7.35; p = 0.0037) between patients in group (A) versus group (B), and a HR of 4.18 (95% CI 1.58-11.06; p = 0.0037) between patients in group (C) versus group (B). Thirty-month overall survival was 70.7%, 38.9%, and 30.3% for group (B), (A), and (C) respectively (p-value = 0.008). Conclusions: Our data demonstrate improved response and cancer-specific survival in patients with treatment-refractory mCRPC on docetaxel plus carboplatin compared to docetaxel or cabazitaxel alone. Selection bias is inherent in any retrospective study; however, our finding suggests that clinicians may consider docetaxel plus carboplatin in mCRPC patients who fail 2nd-HT. Further prospective studies are warranted.
