ObjectiveTo evaluate the incidence and management of local and systemic complications afflicting patients with de novo metastatic prostate cancer (mPCa) in Singapore.DesignRetrospective analysis of a large prospective Uro-oncology registry of mPCa.SettingThis study is carried out in a tertiary hospital in Singapore.ParticipantsWe reviewed our institution’s prospectively maintained database of 685 patients with mPCa over a 20-year period (1995–2014). Patients with non-mPCa or those progressed to metastatic disease after previous curative local treatments were excluded.Primary and secondary outcome measuresThe primary outcome was to evaluate the systemic and local morbidity rates associated with mPCa. Local complication was defined as the need for palliative procedures to relieve urinary obstruction, worsening renal function or refractory haematuria, while systemic complication was related to radiographic evidence of skeletal-related pathological fractures. Secondary outcomes analysed were the management and overall survival patterns over 20 years.Results237 (34.6%) patients required local palliative treatments. 88 (12.8%) patients presented with acute urinary retention, 23 patients (9.7%) required repetitive local palliative treatments. On multivariate analyses, prostate-specific antigen >100 (p=0.02) and prostate volume >50 g (p=0.03) were independent prognostic factors for significant obstruction requiring palliative procedures. 118 (17.2%) patients developed skeletal fractures, with poor Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group Performance (ECOG) status (p=0.01) and high volume bone metastasis (p<0.01) independently predictive of skeletal fractures. Altogether, 653 (95.3%) patients received androgen deprivation therapy (ADT), with the median time to castrate resistance of 21.4 months (IQR 7–27). The median overall survival was 45 months (IQR 20–63), with prostate cancer mortality of 81.4%. Improved overall survival was observed from 41.6 months (1995–1999) to 47.8 months (2010–2014) (p<0.01).ConclusionMorbidities and complications arising from mPCa are more common and debilitating than we thought, often requiring immediate palliative treatments, while many necessitate repeated interventions with progression.

235 Background: AAP is approved for patients with chemotherapy-naïve mCRPC, but the population with previous use of DES was not studied before. DES is a commonly used hormone therapy for mCRPC in second and plus lines, especially in developing countries, due to lack of access to novel and efficacious therapies. The objective of this trial is to describe the efficacy and safety of AAP after DES treatment in patients who are chemotherapy-naïve, potentially affecting chemotherapy onset. This is the first and only prospective trial to show this data. Methods: This phase 2 multicenter, open-label single-arm study evaluated 46 patients receiving AA (1000 mg daily) + low-dose prednisone (P; 10 mg daily) and androgen deprivation therapy in patients with DES–refractory mCRPC enrolled from Oct 2014 to Oct 2015. The primary efficacy endpoint was time to prostate-specific antigen progression (PSAP) by Prostate Cancer Working Group (PCWG2) criteria. Secondary endpoints included PSA response (≥50% reduction), overall survival, and safety. Results: At baseline, median age was 69 years, median PSA was 40 ng/mL, there were no visceral metastases, 98% of patients had Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group Performance Status 0-1, and 44% had Gleason scores ≥7. Thirty two subjects (71.1%) had PSAP. PSA response was achieved by 47% of patients at week 12 and 56% at any time. Three patients remain on study drug and 4 are in follow-up. AA treatment continued until PSAP, clinical progression, consent withdrawal, or unacceptable toxicity. The median duration of study treatment was 8.6 months. The median time to PSAP was 7.4 months (95% CI = 5.6-9.4) and the median overall survival was 25.6 months (95% CI = 15.7-NE). Treatment-related adverse events included hypertension (19.6%), hyperglycemia (19.6%), fatigue (17.4%), and hypokalemia (4.5%); most grade 1-2. Conclusions: The present study confirmed that AAP provides PSA responses even in heavily treated patients, showing clinical benefit post-DES in chemotherapy-naive mCRPC patients. It also confirmed tolerability of AAP, with an easily manageable toxicity profile. Clinical trial information: NCT02217566.

Introduction: Recently, a prognostic index including six risk factors (RFs) (unfavourable Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance status [ECOG PS], presence of liver metastases, short response to luteinizing hormone-releasing hormone [LHRH] agonists/ antagonists, low albumin, increased alkaline phosphatase [ALP] and lactate dehydrogenase [LDH]) was developed from the COUAA- 301 trial in post-chemotherapy metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) patients treated with abiraterone acetate. Our primary objective was to evaluate this model in a cohort of chemotherapy-naive mCRPC patients receiving abiraterone.Methods: We identified 197 chemotherapy-naive patients who received abiraterone at six BC Cancer Agency centres and who had complete information on all six RFs. Study endpoints were prostate-specific antigen (PSA) response rate (RR), time to PSA progression, time on treatment, and overall survival (OS). PSA RR and survival outcomes were compared using Χ2 test and log-rank test. Multivariable Cox proportional hazard analysis was performed to identify RFs independently associated with OS.Results: Patients were classified into good (0‒1 RFs), intermediate (2‒3 RFs), and poor (4‒6 RFs) prognostic groups (33%, 52%, and 15%, respectively). For good-, intermediate-, and poor-risk patients, PSA RR (≥50% decline) was 60% vs. 42% vs. 40% (p=0.05); median time to PSA progression was 7.3 vs. 5.3 vs. 5.0 months (p=0.02); and median OS was 29.4 vs. 13.8 vs. 8.7 months (p<0.0001).Conclusions: The six-factor prognostic index model stratifies clinical outcomes in chemotherapy-naive mCRPC patients treated with abiraterone. Identifying patients at risk of poor outcome is important for informing clinical practice and clinical trial design.

PURPOSE The STAMPEDE trial recruits men with newly diagnosed, high-risk, hormone-sensitive prostate cancer. To ascertain the feasibility of targeted next-generation sequencing (tNGS) and the prevalence of baseline genomic aberrations, we sequenced tumor and germline DNA from patients with metastatic prostate cancer (mPCa) starting long-term androgen-deprivation therapy (ADT). METHODS In a 2-stage approach, archival, formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded (FFPE) prostate tumor core biopsy samples were retrospectively subjected to 2 tNGS assays. Prospective enrollment enabled validation using tNGS in tumor and germline DNA. RESULTS In stage 1, tNGS data were obtained from 185 tumors from 287 patients (65%); 98% had de novo mPCa. We observed PI3K pathway aberrations in 43%, due to PTEN copy-number loss (34%) and/or activating mutations in PIK3 genes or AKT (18%) and TP53 mutation or loss in 33%. No androgen receptor ( AR) aberrations were detected; RB1 loss was observed in < 1%. In stage 2, 93 (92%) of 101 FFPE tumors (biopsy obtained within 8 months) were successfully sequenced prospectively. The prevalence of DNA damage repair (DDR) deficiency was 14% (somatic) and 5% (germline). BRCA2 mutations and mismatch repair gene mutations were exclusive to high-volume disease. Aberrant DDR (22% v 15%), Wnt pathway (16% v 4%), and chromatin remodeling (16% v 8%) were all more common in high-volume compared with low-volume disease, but the small numbers limited statistical comparisons. CONCLUSION Prospective genomic characterization is feasible using residual diagnostic tumor samples and reveals that the genomic landscapes of de novo high-volume mPCa and advanced metastatic prostate cancer have notable similarities (PI3K pathway, DDR, Wnt, chromatin remodeling) and differences ( AR, RB1). These results will inform the design and conduct of biomarker-directed trials in men with metastatic hormone-sensitive prostate cancer.

TPS4698^ Background: MDV3100 is a novel androgen receptor (AR) signaling inhibitor (ARSI) in clinical development for treatment of prostate cancer (PCa). Compared with Bic in nonclinical CRPC models, MDV3100 showed higher affinity AR binding, inhibited nuclear translocation and AR-DNA binding, showed no evidence of AR agonism, and caused tumor regression in Bic-resistant xenografts. MDV3100 has shown antitumor activity in men with advanced PCa. We present the study design of a trial comparing MDV3100 and Bic in men with progressive metastatic PCa. Methods: Multinational study (Table) with planned enrollment of 370 patients (randomized 1:1 to MDV3100 160 mg/d or Bic 50 mg/d). Inclusion criteria include metastatic (≥2 bone lesions or soft tissue disease at screening) progressive CRPC (≥3 rising prostate-specific antigen [PSA] levels or new bone/soft tissue disease), ongoing stable gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) analog therapy or surgical castration (serum testosterone <50 ng/dL), Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance status 0–1, and life expectancy ≥1 year. Exclusion criteria include previous chemotherapy, current/prior antiandrogens (except if administered for <12 wk and discontinued no less than 6 mo before study). Patients will be stratified by time of bilateral orchiectomy or GnRH analog initiation (before/after diagnosis of metastases) and will receive treatment until occurrence of radiographic progression/skeletal-related event, start of new antineoplastic therapy, or development of an adverse event requiring discontinuation. Results: The primary endpoint is progression-free survival; secondary endpoints are safety, PSA response, and time to PSA progression. Exploratory endpoints include circulating tumor cell conversion rate and quality of life. Patients are currently enrolling. Conclusions: This ongoing, head-to-head, phase II trial is the first to prospectively assess whether MDV3100 can provide improved antitumor effects vs Bic in men with metastatic CRPC.

272 Background: AA men are underrepresented in randomized clinical trials (RCTs) for prostate cancer, despite an almost 2-fold greater incidence in AA vs Caucasian populations. Sip-T is an autologous cellular immunotherapy approved by the FDA and EMA for the treatment of certain patients (pts) with asymptomatic or minimally symptomatic metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer. AA enrollment in three sip-T phase 3 RCTs was 5.8% (n=43). While no definitive conclusions were drawn, median overall survival (OS) suggested AAs benefit from sip-T. PROCEED, an ongoing phase 4 registry, expanded efforts to increase AA enrollment to better characterize this population and the safety, product parameters (PP), and OS of AAs treated with sip-T. Methods: PROCEED enrolled 1973 pts treated with commercial sip-T within 6 months of registration. Efforts, such as selecting racially diverse sites and highlighting AA enrollment in PROCEED communications and investigator meetings, were used to boost AA enrollment. Baseline Gleason score, Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance status (ECOG), prostate-specific antigen (PSA), and alkaline phosphatase (ALP) were compared between RCTs and PROCEED. Safety and survival analyses are ongoing. Results: PROCEED AA enrollment was 11.7% vs 7.1% US RCT nonwhite enrollment rate and approaches the US AA population of 13.7%. Baseline AA pt characteristics were: lower median PSA and ALP levels in PROCEED vs RCTs, higher ECOG >0 in PROCEED vs RCTs, and higher Gleason score ≥8 in PROCEED vs RCTs (Table). Conclusions: Efforts to boost AA enrollment in PROCEED to a proportion comparable to the US AA population succeeded. The lower baseline PSA of AAs in PROCEED is similar to the PSA observed in the entire PROCEED population. Safety, PP, and OS will be reported with longer follow-up. Clinical trial information: NCT01306890. [Table: see text]

258 Background: We reported initial findings on the phenotypic differences between de novo versus primary progressive metastatic prostate cancer (Finianos et al., ASCO GU; abstr 285). We sought to determine the differences in the phenotypic characteristics of these 2 cohorts of patients and update the data with overall survival and patterns of response to androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) in patients presenting with de novo versus primary progressive prostate cancer. Methods: A retrospective chart review in a single-institution center for a period of 2 years was undertaken. Phenotypic characteristics included age at diagnosis, race, overall survival, treatment patterns, and response to ADT. Analysis was by t-test, Mann-Whitney U test, and Fisher’s Exact test. Results: A total of 90 patients were included in this cohort with de novo, dn (n = 38) and primary progressive, pp (n = 52) patients. There were no significant differences between the 2 cohorts with regard to the median age at diagnosis (dn = 66, pp = 61, p = 0.11), alkaline phosphatase level (dn = 135.5, pp = 86, p = 0.27), BMI (dn = 28.47, pp = 27, p = 0.78), creatinine (dn = 1.02, pp = 0.99, p = 0.34), LDH (dn = 188, pp = 166, p = 0.34), and testosterone on metastasis (dn = 276, pp = 31, p = 0.16). However, de novo cancers were diagnosed with higher mean gleason scores (dn = 8.36, pp = 7.7, p = 0.004), had higher median PSA upon diagnosis (dn = 63.1, pp = 8.8, p < .0001) and higher PSA on metastasis (dn = 61.7, pp = 12.5, p = .0002), and had a statistically significant decreased duration of hormone sensitivity (dn = 642 days, pp = 1783 days, p = < .0001). Patients with d e novo cancers also had a shorter median survival than primary progressive cancers (dn = 2257 days, pp = 4217 days, p = 0.02). Conclusions: Patients who present with de novo metastatic prostate cancer appear to develop early castration resistance and have worse overall survival than those who present with primary progressive disease. We are exploring the molecular differences in terms of androgen receptor expression as a potential etiology for development of early castration resistance.

The Impact

Purpose This clinical practice guideline addresses abiraterone or docetaxel with androgen-deprivation therapy (ADT) for metastatic prostate cancer that has not been treated (or has been minimally treated) with testosterone-lowering agents. Methods Standard therapy for newly diagnosed metastatic prostate cancer has been ADT alone. Three studies have compared ADT alone with ADT and docetaxel, and two studies have compared ADT alone with ADT and abiraterone. Results Three prospective randomized studies (GETUG-AFU 15, STAMPEDE, and CHAARTED) examined overall survival (OS) with adding docetaxel to ADT. STAMPEDE and CHAARTED favored docetaxel (hazard ratio [HR], 0.78; 95% CI, 0.66 to 0.93; n = 2,962 and HR, 0.73; 95% CI, 0.59 to 0.89; n = 790, respectively). GETUG-AFU 15 was negative. LATITUDE and STAMPEDE examined the impact on OS of adding abiraterone (with prednisone or prednisolone) to ADT. LATITUDE and STAMPEDE favored abiraterone (HR, 0.62; 95% CI, 0.51 to 0.76; n = 1,199 and HR, 0.63; 95% CI, 0.52 to 0.76; n = 1,917, respectively). Recommendations ADT plus docetaxel or abiraterone in newly diagnosed metastatic non-castrate prostate cancer offers a survival benefit as compared with ADT alone. The strongest evidence of benefit with docetaxel is in men with de novo high-volume (CHAARTED criteria) metastatic disease. Similar survival benefits are seen using abiraterone acetate in high-risk patients (LATITUDE criteria) and in the metastatic population in STAMPEDE. ADT plus abiraterone and ADT plus docetaxel have not been compared, and it is not known if some men benefit more from one regimen as opposed to the other. Fitness for chemotherapy, patient comorbidities, toxicity profiles, quality of life, drug availability, and cost should be considered in this decision.

Landmark Analyses

IntroductionRandomized clinical trials demonstrated improved overall survival in chemotherapy exposed metastatic prostate cancer patients. However, real-world data validating this effect with large scale epidemiological data sets are scarce and might not agree with trials. We tested this hypothesis.Materials and MethodsWe identified de novo metastatic prostate cancer patients within the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) database (2014-2015). Kaplan-Meier plots and Cox regression models tested for overall survival differences between chemotherapy-exposed patients vs chemotherapy-naïve patients. All analyses were repeated in propensity-score matched cohorts. Additionally, landmark analyses were applied to account for potential immortal time bias.ResultsOverall, 4295 de novo metastatic prostate cancer patients were identified. Of those, 905 (21.1%) patients received chemotherapy vs 3390 (78.9%) did not. Median overall survival was not reached at 30 months follow-up. Chemotherapy-exposed patients exhibited significantly better overall survival (61.6 vs 54.3%, multivariable HR:0.82, CI: 0.72-0.96, p=0.01) at 30 months compared to their chemotherapy-naïve counterparts. These findings were confirmed in propensity score matched analyses (multivariable HR: 0.77, CI:0.66-0.90, p&lt;0.001). Results remained unchanged after landmark analyses were applied in propensity score matched population.ConclusionsIn this contemporary real-world population-based cohort, chemotherapy for metastatic prostate cancer patients was associated with better overall survival. However, the magnitude of overall survival benefit was not comparable to phase 3 trials.
