1016PSurrogate endpoint of progression-free (PFS) and overall survival (OS) for advanced ovarian cancer (AOC) patients (pts) treated with neo-adjuvant chemotherapy (NACT): Results of the CHIVA randomized phase II GINECO study

Background NACT is increasingly used as a model to explore new targeted therapy in combination with CT in AOC. Whether an intermediate endpoint could be used as surrogate of PFS and/or OS in pts treated with NACT remains currently elusive and was explored retrospectively in the CHIVA trial. Methods Patients (pts) with FIGO stage IIIC-IV AOC considered as unresectable after laparoscopic (Lap) evaluation were treated with 3 to 4 cycles of platinum-taxane NACT + oral nintedanib before interval debulking surgery (IDS). CT (up to 6 cycles in total) and nintedanib were pursued post-operatively. Were measured response rates at the end of NACT according to RECIST (ORR) with CT-scan and to GCIG with CA125, initial Peritoneal Cancer Index (PCI) and its evolution at IDS, complete surgical resection rate (CC0), pathologic complete or near complete response rate (pCR). These covariates in univariate analysis were included together with other prognostic clinical covariates:age, FIGO stage, ECOG, tumor size, ascitis, neutrophil/lymphocyte ratio, platelet and hemoglobin counts and symptoms (pain). Results A total of 163/188 pts included in the CHIVA trial were evaluable for the analysis. Median follow-up is 42. 6 mos (95% CI: 39.9-44.8). In the univariate Cox model, ECOG, ascitis, neutrophil/lymphocyte ratio, PCI at baseline, RECIST ORR, CC0 at IDS, pCR and treatment arm were correlated (p Conclusions Results from the CHIVA trial suggest that the rate of patients who achieve both a RECIST response to NACT and a complete surgical resection (CC0) at IDS could be used as the main primary endpoint for future NACT trials.
