Abstract 4727
Background
Limited data exist in the clonal dynamics of serial ctDNA as a predictive biomarker in advanced solid tumor pts receiving immune checkpoint blockade.
Methods
Pts with mixed solid tumors received single agent P (anti-PD-1) 200 mg IV Q3wks in the investigator-initiated phase II INSPIRE trial (NCT02644369). ctDNA was assayed at baseline (B) and start of cycle 3 (C3) using a pt-specific amplicon-based NGS assay (Signatera™). Samples were considered ctDNA positive if ≥ 2 of 16 pt-specific targets met the qualifying confidence score threshold.
Results
Of 94 pts are presented. Demographics: male 38%; median age=55 yrs (range 21–81); triple negative breast (19%), ovarian (19%) and head and neck (17%) cancers comprised the major malignancies. Median no. of P cycles=3 (range 1–35); follow up was 14m (range 0.6-35.4); RECIST responses: CR 3.2% (n = 3), PR 14% (n = 13), CBR (CR+PR+SD>6 cycles) 28% (n = 26), RECIST/clinical PD (n = 61/18; 65%/19%). Median PFS=2.5m and median OS = 14m. In all 94 pts, ctDNAB correlated with PFS (adjusted HR 0.53, 95% CI 0.34-0.84, p = 0.01) and OS (adjusted HR 0.47, 95% CI 0.28-0.8, p = 0.01). Among 74 pts with both ctDNAB and ctDNAC3, the change (ΔctDNA) correlated with clinical efficacy parameters (Table).Table: 113P

Adjustment on cohorts;
*2 pts were excluded from ORR/CBR analyses as baseline ctDNA = 0; 1 of these 2 pts (with PR) excluded from PFS/OS analyses as C3 ctDNA = 0
Conclusions
Strong correlations exist between both ctDNAB and ΔctDNA with clinical outcome, suggesting both prognostic and predictive values in pts with mixed solid tumors.
