e16046 Background: Nearly half of patients with colorectal cancer develop liver metastases and only 20% are initially resectable. Surgical resection of liver metastases results in five-year survival rates of 24-48%. Perioperative FOLFOX therapy increases progression free survival. In advanced disease the addition of targeting therapies to chemotherapy results in an overall survival advantage. In this study the efficacy and safety of perioperative panitumumab and FOLFIRI therapy were investigated. Methods: Patients with previously untreated, wild-type RAS, potentially resectable colorectal cancer liver metastases were included. Chemotherapy consisted of irinotecan 180mg/m2 intravenously over 120 minutes and fluorouracil bolus 400mg/m2 intravenously, followed by a 46 h infusion of fluorouracil 2400mg/m2 repeated every 2 weeks. Panitumumab was given as an intravenous dose of 6mg/kg every 2 weeks. Preoperative 4 cycles and postoperative 8 cycles were administered. Primary objectives were the evaluation of efficacy and safety. Results: We enrolled 36 patients in 7 centers in Austria. ITT-analyses included 35 patients. There were 28 men and 7 women, the median age was 66 years. 91.4% completed the planned 4 cycles of preoperative therapy and 82.9% underwent liver resection. R0 resection rate was 82.7%. 20 patients started postoperative chemotherapy and 12 patients completed the planned 8 cycles. Objective response rate after preoperative therapy was 65.7% with one radiological complete remission and 22 partial remissions. In 20% and 5.7% of patients stable disease and progressive disease were documented, respectively. Three patients discontinued preoperative treatment due to adverse events without response evaluation. The most common grade 3 adverse events were diarrhea (n = 4), rash (n = 3) and leukopenia (n = 3) during preoperative therapy. One patient died due to sepsis and one had a pulmonary embolism grade 4. After surgery two patients died due to hepatic failure and one patient had a suture related complication grade 3. Most common grade 3/4 adverse events during postoperative therapy were rash (n = 2), stroke (n = 1) and intestinal obstruction (n = 1). Conclusions: Panitumumab in combination with FOLFIRI as preoperative therapy for operable colorectal liver metastases in RAS wild-type patients results in a radiological objective response rate in 65.7% of patients with a manageable grade 3 diarrhea rate of 14.3%. Progression-free survival and overall survival are still monitored. Clinical trial information: 2012_000265-20 .

449 Background: Systemic treatment of unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) or colorectal cancer liver metastases (CLM) in the elderly can be complicated by increased toxicity. In addition, the increasing incidence of comorbidities with age may preclude surgical resection with curative intent. Hepatic arterial therapy is increasingly utilized in patients with HCC or CLM not amenable to surgical resection. Studies of transarterial chemoembolization in the elderly have generally shown similar safety and efficacy as compared to younger patients, although some studies suggest worse outcomes. The selective nature of radioembolization has the potential for improved tolerability in this patient population. Methods: We report the results of a retrospective review of patients with unresectable HCC or metastatic disease to the liver treated with Yttrium-90 radioembolization at a single institution. Results: Patients were referred for treatment after multidisciplinary evaluation, but were not treated as part of a clinical trial. A total of 94 patients treated were evaluable for follow up. There were approximately twice as many males as females (64% vs 36%). Elderly was defined as 70 years of age or older, representing 20 of the 94 patients. Average age of the elderly cohort was 76 (range 70-90), compared to 56 years of age (range 23-69) for the younger patients. Survival was measured from date of first radioembolization. Median survival was similar for elderly and younger patients when considering all tumor types (337 days vs 288 days). There was no difference in median survival between elderly and non-elderly patients with CLM (377 days vs 365 days) or with HCC (370 days vs 363 days). Conclusions: In our experience, survival after Yttrium-90 radioembolization in elderly and younger patients with primary HCC or CLM is similar. Age alone should not preclude consideration for liver-directed therapy.

3553 Background: This trial investigates the addition of panitumumab to chemotherapy with fluorouracil/ folinic acid and oxaliplatin (FOLFOX) in a 2:1 randomized, controlled, open label, phase II trial in RAS wild-type colorectal cancer patients with R0/1-resected liver metastases. Methods: The primary endpoint was progression-free survival (PFS) two years after randomisation. The experimental arm (12 wks of biweekly mFOLFOX6 plus panitumumab followed by 12 wks of panitumumab alone) was considered active if the 2-year-PFS rate was ≥65%. Based on historical data, a 2-year-PFS rate of 50% was estimated in the control arm (12 wks of biweekly FOLFOX). The trial was performed with a power of 80% and an alpha of 0.05. Secondary endpoints included overall survival (OS) and toxicity. The trial is registered with ClinicalTrials.gov, NCT01384994. Results: The full analysis set consists of 70 patients (pts) in the experimental arm and 36 pts in the control arm. The 2-year-PFS rate was 34.3% with FOLFOX plus panitumumab and failed to meet the primary endpoint. The 2-year-PFS rate in the control arm was 25%. In the experimental arm, a more favourable outcome was observed with regard to PFS (HR: 0.72, 95%CI 0.45-1.17; P = 0.18) and OS (HR: 0.76 (95% CI 0.34-1.71, P = 0.51) which did, however, not reach the level of significance. Updated data including toxicity and subgroup analyses might be presented at the meeting Conclusions: The PARLIM trial clearly failed to demonstrate a PFS rate of 65% after resection of colorectal liver metastases 2 years after randomisation, potentially indicating that the generally high frequency of recurrence and the choice of primary endpoint did not correspond in this study population. However, a trend for improved PFS and OS by the addition of panitumumab to 12 wks of FOLFOX followed by 12 wks panitumumab maintenance therapy may support future trials with ant-EGFR antibodies in this specific treatment setting. Clinical trial information: NCT01384994.
