Abstract

131^ Background: Sipuleucel-T is an autologous cellular immunotherapy indicated for asymptomatic or minimally symptomatic mCRPC based on data from the phase III IMPACT pivotal trial that showed a significant improvement in overall survival (OS) compared to control (HR: 0.78 [95% CI: 0.61, 0.98]; P=0.03; median OS difference 4.1 mos). Analysis of IMPACT demonstrated evidence of a positive sipuleucel-T treatment effect in men above and below the median age of 71. We sought to understand the disease characteristics and product parameters in pts ≥80 years (yrs) given the high prevalence of older men in the mCRPC pt population. Methods: PROCEED is an ongoing, multicenter (>190 sites), phase 4 registry enrolling pts receiving sipuleucel-T. Information on antigen presenting cell (APC) activation and total nucleated cell (TNC) count were obtained during product manufacture. Results: Of 560 subjects who completed sipuleucel-T treatment to date: 110 (20%) pts were ≥80 yrs-old. Disease characteristics in pts ≥80 yrs vs <80 yrs are detailed in the table below. Product parameters were similar between groups. Conclusions: Pts ≥80 exhibit similar product parameters compared with their younger counterparts. Future follow-up will explore OS and correlations with immune parameters in both groups. Clinical trial information: NCT01306890. [Table: see text]
