Abstract 4349
Background
Abiraterone (Abi), enzalutamide (Enz) and docetaxel (Doc) are all approved first-line (1L) treatment options for mCRPC. However, the optimal treatment sequence has not been established yet. In the present analysis, we explored the outcomes of pts treated with 1L Doc or Abi/Enz in the prospective PROREPAIR-B cohort study (NCT03075735).
Methods
We assessed the impact of 1L treatment options (Doc vs Abi/Enz) on progression-free survival to 1L therapy (PFS) and overall survival (OS). Uni- (UV) and multivariable (MV) Cox-regression models were used. MV model covariates included age (≥75 years), local therapy, Gleason Score, visceral metastases, metastases at diagnosis, phosphatase alkaline (ALP) (≥ULN), lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) (≥ULN), haemoglobin (Hb) (≤LNL), albumin (≤LNL) and ECOG performance status.
Results
Of 419 pts enrolled in the study, 406 received 1L Doc (n = 188) or Abi/Enz (n = 218). Overall, pts receiving Doc were younger (p = 0.002), had higher rates of visceral metastases (17.6% vs 8.7%, p = 0.008), ALP (52.1% vs 40.4%, p = 0.018), LDH (48.1% vs 31.2%, p < 0.001), lower Hb (7.4% vs 2.8%, p = 0.029) and albumin (11.3% vs 4.6%). The median follow-up was 40 months. PFS was longer in pts receiving 1L Abi/Enz vs Doc (10.8 vs 8.3 months, HR: 0.5, p < 0.001). 123/188 pts treated with 1L-Doc received second-line (2L) Abi/Enz: 30 received other 2L and 35 had not started 2L. 111/216 pts treated with 1L-Abi/Enz received 2L Doc, 26 were started on other 2L and 79 had not initiated 2L. Choice of first-line agent was not associated with OS in the MV model. Similar results were found in the elderly population. Of 137 aged ≥ 75 years, 48 received Doc and 88 Abi/Enza as first-line therapy. PFS favoured 1L Abi/Enz vs Doc (9.6 vs 8.3m, HR: 0.52, p = 0.001), whereas no difference was found in terms of OS (28.2 vs 24.8m, respectively, HR: 1.18, p = 0.474).
Conclusions
Pts treated with 1L Doc had worse baseline prognostic features. Despite a longer PFS was observed in pts treated with 1L Abi/Enz vs Doc, no difference in OS was found between the treatment sequences. Similar results were observed in the elderly population. Biomarker-driven pts selection is needed to identify the optimal sequence.
