TPS9150 Background: Skeletal related events (SREs) diminish quality of life (QOL) as well as overall survival (OS) in patients with bone metastases, a common event in breast, lung and prostate cancer. SREs can be reduced or delayed by the use of bisphosphonates. It is postulated that the radiopharmaceuticals, Strontium-89 (Sr89) and Samarium-153 (Sm153), when added to a bisphosphonate can decrease the incidence of SREs. Methods: RTOG 0517 randomized patients with breast, lung and prostate cancer and blastic bone metastases to either Zoledronic acid (ZA) alone or ZA plus a single standard dose of either Sr89 or Sm153. No limitations were placed on additional therapy such as chemotherapy or hormonal treatment. The projected median time to SRE [pathological bone fracture, spinal cord compression, surgery to bone, or radiation to bone] for the ZA arm was 10.4 months requiring 257 SRE events to detect a 33% relative reduction for the radiopharmaceutical arm in the time to development of an SRE with 90% power. Other study objectives included quality of life, pain control, OS and toxicity. Results: 261 patients (median age 68; 62% male; 55% prostate, 35% breast, 10% lung) were accrued from July 2006 through February 2011 (4.6 patients/month). Due to a lower than expected rate of SREs in the control (ZA) arm, the study was closed early and therefore did not reach the targeted accrual. 28 (17.4%) patients in the ZA arm and 27 (16.8%) in the radiopharmaceutical arm experienced an SRE. Median time to development of an SRE in the ZA and radiopharmaceutical arms was 11.60 and 16.74 months, respectively (p=.47). Median OS in the ZA arm and radiopharmaceutical arm was 15.95 and 11.18 months, respectively (p=0.12). Cox proportional hazards regression model showed that baseline characteristics, including gender, race, ethnicity, primary disease site or number of bone metastases, had no significant impact on OS. There was no difference in QOL parameters or toxicities between the two arms. Conclusion: Patients receiving ZA only experienced a much lower SRE rate than was hypothesized. The addition of Sr89 or Sm153 did not result in a difference in SREs, OS, or QOL

TPS5093 Background: Men with mCRPC often receive sequential NAH (abiraterone and enzalutamide) despite reported cross-resistance, indicating a need for further life-prolonging options for progressive disease after prior NAH. Ra-223 is a targeted alpha therapy approved for mCRPC with symptomatic bone metastases based on the phase 3 ALSYMPCA study, in which it demonstrated significantly increased overall survival (OS), reduced symptomatic skeletal event (SSE) risk, improved quality of life, and reduced treatment-emergent adverse event rates vs placebo. As life-prolonging therapy is increasingly used in hormone-sensitive settings, this study has been designed to assess Ra-223 outcomes in patients with mCRPC that progressed after prior treatment with NAH and docetaxel for metastatic hormone-sensitive prostate cancer (mHSPC) or mCRPC. Methods: This study is conducted in accordance with the Declaration of Helsinki, international ethical and good clinical practice guidelines, and local laws and regulations, with institutional review board/ethics committee approval at each site and written informed consent from patients before participation. This trial is registered with EudraCT: 2019-000476-42. Participants must be ≥18 years old, with an Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance status of 0/1; they must have mCRPC that progressed on/after ≥3 months of NAH for mHSPC or mCRPC and ≥2 cycles of docetaxel unless they refused or were ineligible, with ≥2 bone metastases on bone scan, no visceral metastases, and a worst pain score ≥1 on the Brief Pain Inventory-Short Form. Patients are randomized 1:1 to Ra-223 or NAH: Ra-223 55 kBq/kg intravenously every 4 weeks for 6 cycles or until disease progression, death, or withdrawal of consent if earlier; or abiraterone 1000 mg + prednisone 10 mg daily (if prior enzalutamide) or enzalutamide 160 mg daily (if prior abiraterone) until disease progression, death, or withdrawal of consent. NAH dosing may be modified to manage adverse events. Patients must use luteinizing hormone-releasing hormone analogs, if not surgically castrated, and bone health agents (bisphosphonates or denosumab) throughout the study. The primary endpoint is OS. Secondary endpoints are time to first SSE, radiologic progression-free survival, time to pain progression, adverse events, fracture incidence, and time to deterioration in quality of life (FACT-P total score). Using a test with a two-sided alpha of 0.05, 90% power, and randomization ratio of 1:1, approximately 508 events are required to detect a 33% increase in OS with Ra-223 vs NAH, assuming a median OS of 10 months with NAH. The expected study duration is 55 months, with a target of 696 patients to be randomized. The first patient was enrolled on November 9, 2020; 5 patients have been randomized and 2 have started treatment to date. Clinical trial information: 2019-000476-42.

e24083 Background: Randomized clinical trials evaluated bone modifying agents (BMAs) such as bisphosphonates and denosumab for bone metastases for 1-2 years in duration even though BMA therapy is commonly administered for much longer. A systematic review on the risk-benefit of continuing BMAs for longer than 2 years in breast cancer or castrate-resistant prostate cancer was conducted. Methods: Medline, Embase and Cochrane Register of Controlled Trials were searched (1970 - February 2019) for randomized studies, observational studies, and case series reporting on BMA efficacy and toxicity beyond 2 years. Efficacy was assessed by skeletal-related event (SRE) rates and quality of life metrics. Toxicity was assessed by rates of osteonecrosis of the jaw (ONJ), renal impairment, hypocalcemia, and atypical femoral fractures (AFF). Results: Of 2107 citations, 64 studies were identified. A total of 3 prospective and 9 retrospective studies were eligible. Data beyond 2 years was limited to subgroup analyses in all studies. Three studies [zoledronate (ZOL) (n = 481), pamidronate (PAM) (n = 87), PAM-ZOL (n = 43) ibandronate (n = 30)] reported on SRE-related endpoints. Only one study reported SRE rates based on duration of BMA exposure and showed reduced SRE rates from 27.6% (0-24 months) to 15.5% ( > 24 months) over time. None reported on quality of life. All 12 studies [denosumab (n = 948), ZOL (n = 1036), PAM (n = 163), PAM-ZOL (n = 522), ibandronate (n = 118)] reported on at least one toxicity outcome. Data from 7 bisphosphonate studies (n = 1077) and 1 denosumab study (n = 948) reported on ONJ incidence. In 3 studies (n = 67, n = 221, n = 948), ONJ incidence ranged from 1-4% in the first 2 years and from 3.8-18% beyond 2 years. In another study (n = 252), the cumulative hazard of ONJ was 0% (1% ZOL), 3% (7% ZOL), 7% (21% ZOL) and 11% (21% ZOL) at 12, 24, 36, and 48 months, respectively (p = 0.005); 4 remaining studies reported 1 (n = 181), 3 (n = 57), 7 (n = 99) and 2 (n = 200) cases of ONJ, all after 24 months. Incidence of clinically significant hypocalcemia ranged from 1-2%. Incidence of severe renal function decline was ≤ 3%. AFF occurred in two subjects in one of two studies after 37 and 79 months of BMA exposure. Conclusions: Although the evidence informing the use of BMA is heterogeneous and based on retrospective analysis, BMA exposure beyond 2 years is associated with reduced SRE risk and increased ONJ incidence. Prospective randomized studies addressing the use of BMA for more than 2 years is needed with greater emphasis on quality of life.
