A retrospective study of hepatic arterial infusion (HAI) FUDR/Dex and mitomycin C (MMC) for chemotherapy refractory unresectable intrahepatic cholangiocarcinomas (ICC).

Abstract

432 Background: ICC are aggressive tumors with approximately 6,000 cases a year in US. The 5-year survival rate is less than 30% even for localized disease. There is only one approved line of systemic (SYS) treatment and further treatment options are necessary. HAI chemotherapy is an option to treat liver predominant cancers. Methods: After obtaining IRB approval, we retrospectively reviewed patients (pts) with ICC chemo refractory unresectable liver limited (LL) or liver dominant (LD) disease who received intrahepatic chemotherapy with HAI MMC. Baseline characteristics, previous lines of therapy, toxicity profile, combinations and radiographic responses were reviewed. Tumor genomic analyses were performed on samples using an on-site next generation sequencing (NGS) assay. Results: Between January 2011 and October 2018, 19 patients ICC with LL or LD disease were treated with HAI FUDR/Dex/MMC at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center. Disease was confined to the liver in 58% of the pts. All pts had previous chemotherapy (1-4 lines) and 14 (74%) previously had HAI FUDR/Dex. Of the 19 pts, 56% had HAI with FUDR/Dex and MMC, 43% had FUDR/Dex, MCC and SYS and 5% had HAI MMC and SYS. Seventeen patients were evaluable for response, two are being treated and will have response assessment for the meeting. Response was noted in 4 (23.5%), stable disease in 6 (35.5%) and progressive disease in 7 (41%) pts. Median overall survival from treatment was 6.1months (0.36-26). Median progression free survival was 3.65 months (0.36-9.53). Four patients had dose reductions. Common toxicity attributed to MMC was grade (G) one fatigue (32%), thrombocytopenia G1(16%) and G2 (5%). Of the 12 tumors analyzed to date the most 92% of tumors harbored at least one (0-10) genomic alteration. Common genomic alterations were ARID1 (25%), RASA1 (25%), IDH1(16.6%), NTRK (16.6%), TERT (16.6%), NRAS (16.6%), CDKN2 (16. 6%). FGFR2-FOXP1 and GTL2MEt fusions were found in one patient each. Conclusions: HAI FUDR/Dex/MMC containing regimens are active in pts with heavily pretreated refractory unresectable ICC. This strategy should be further investigated. Translational data will be presented.
