Abstract 2527
Background
Clinically meaningful measures of response are needed in mCRPC. Post-treatment CTC decline have shown to be superior to PSA response in determining outcome in pts treated with AR signalling inhibitors. We compared the performance of CTC and PSA measures of response in mCRPC Doc-treated pts.
Methods
Baseline and post-treatment (6 to 9 weeks) CTC of mCRPC pts treated with Doc at first or second-line in a prospective study were determined with CellSearchTM platform. CTC response was defined: 30% decline from baseline (CTC30%), conversion (≥5 to < 5; CTCConv) or decline to 0 CTC in pts with >0 baseline CTC (CTC0). PSA response was determined at 12w as 30% (PSA30) or 50% decline (PSA50) from baseline. Cox-regression model were used to evaluate the association of baseline CTC (BLCTC), CTC response and PSA response measures with overall survival (OS), progression-free survival (PFS) or time to PSA progression (TTPP). C-index were used to evaluate the performance of each of the Cox regression model.
Results
80 pts had evaluable BLCTC, 52 had evaluable post-treatment CTC count. Of 80 eligible pts, 53 (66.3%) received Doc at first-line. Median OS was 19 m (95%CI:16.4-21.8); median BLCTC was 7. BLCTC were associated with bone mts, higher PSA, ALP and LDH, and lower albumin levels. BLCTC was associated with OS (HR: 3.5; p < 0.001), PFS (HR: 1.98; p = 0.001) and TTPP (HR: 1.8; p = 0.001). CTC (CTC30%, CTCConv, CTC0) but not PSA (PSA30, PSA50) response measures were significantly associated with OS. C-index values were higher for CTC resp endpoints (Table). 24 pts had discordant PSA30 and CTC30% response; longer OS (18.4 vs 8.4m; p = 0.188) was observed in pts with CTC30% resp, without PSA30 resp.Table:
889P
N (%) | HR (95%CI); p-value | C-index | |
---|---|---|---|
CTC Conv | 27 (51.9) | 0.33 (0.18-0.60); p < 0.001 | 0.665 |
CTC0 | 8 (15.4) | 0.26 (0.10-0.67); p = 0.005 | 0.602 |
CTC30% | 34 (65.4) | 0.33 (0.18-0.61); p < 0.001 | 0.644 |
PSA30 | 32 (61.5) | 0.72 (0.40-1.30); p = 0.271 | 0.563 |
PSA50 | 22 (42.3) | 0.68 (0.38-1.20); p = 0.183 | 0.595 |
Conclusions
Baseline CTC were associated with OS, PFS and TTPP. CTC response measures were significantly associated with outcome, and showed a greater performance than PSA response measures in mCRPC Doc-treated pts.
