Abstract 1836P
Background
PRESIDE (NCT02288247) was a randomised, international trial that met its primary endpoint of prolonged progression-free survival (PFS) with continued ENZ beyond progression in patients (pt) starting Doc. A pre-specified aim of PRESIDE was to test for androgen receptor (AR) blood-based biomarkers to test for differential benefit.
Methods
Pt who participated in PRESIDE, consented to the biomarker sub-study and donated blood at randomization (Period 2 baseline, P2BL) were included. Blood was also collected on treatment (P2 Week [W] 4 and 13), progression and follow up. Pre-specified primary objectives were to evaluate PFS for 1) ENZ versus (v) Placebo (P) in pt split by +/- plasma AR gain or AR-V7 in circulating tumor cells (CTC) at P2BL and 2) PFS for all pt split by +/- tumor in plasma DNA (ptDNA) at P2W4. Custom targeted next-generation sequencing on plasma DNA was performed using a bespoke panel (PCF SELECT). Identification of CTC +/- AR-V7 in whole blood samples was performed by Epic Sciences (San Diego, California).
Results
Of 271 pt randomised to ENZ / P, 157 (57.9%, 79 on ENZ + Doc, 78 on P + Doc) donated blood. 100 (64%) were plasma AR wild type (wt), 56 (36%) had AR gain. 126 (80%) were AR-V7 negative (-), 17 (11%) AR-V7 positive (+). AR status not available for plasma DNA (1 pt) and CTC (14 pt, 9%). Pt who were AR wt and AR-V7- (N=87, 55%) had significantly prolonged PFS from continuing ENZ (11.2 months (m) v 8.7 m P, HR: 0.49; 95% CI: 0.29-0.82, p=0.006), whilst pt with AR gain or AR-V7+ (N=62) did not (6.2 m ENZ v 7.9 m P; HR: 1.29; p=0.44). Restricted mean survival times at 18 m for AR wt and AR-V7- was 11.5 m ENZ v 8.9 m P, p=0.0046, for AR gain or AR-V7 + was 7.9 m ENZ vs 7.1 m P, p=0.5023. Compared with negative ptDNA at P2W4 (99, 74% of 134 pt included), pt with positive ptDNA (35, 26%) had significantly shorter PFS (5.4 m vs 10.8 m, HR: 1.92; 95% CI: 1.14-3.23, p=0.0145).
Conclusions
The benefit of continuing ENZ beyond progression with Doc vs Doc alone is greatest in patient with no evidence of plasma AR gain or AR-V7+ CTC. Plasma tumor DNA detection after 3 weeks Doc +/- ENZ identifies patients with shorter PFS.
