7505 Background: MCL is a rare lymphoma without a standard of care but several regimens have demonstrated clinical activity, the majority based on traditional chemotherapy. We hypothesized that adding venetoclax (V) to R2 would be safe and effective in MCL pts irrespective of age, morphology or stage. Here we present safety and efficacy data from the on-going phase 1b study of R2 + V in pts with newly diagnosed MCL. Methods: This multi-center phase 1 study (NCT03523975) enrolled pts aged ≥18 yrs with untreated MCL. The primary objective was to characterize the safety and tolerability of R2 + V and determine the MTD. During induction (12 months (m)) pts received lenalidomide (L) 20 mg daily on day 1-21, Rituximab (R) was given weekly during c1 then on day 1 of every even cycle, V was escalated over 4 weeks to 400 mg beginning day 8. Each cycle is 28 days (d). The DLT period was 42 d beginning C1D8. In maintenance, R every 8 weeks for 36m, L at 10 mg or half of last dose during induction for 24 m and V for minimum 12 m. No pts have been transplanted. Pts with progression (PD) came off study. MRD was analyzed in parallel with scans during induction by clonoSEQ assay (Adaptive Biotechnologies). Results: As of Feb. 1st, 2021, we have enrolled all 28 planned pts on study. Pt characteristics/responses are summarized in Table. Among the 28 pts who have received at least one dose, the median treatment duration so far is 278d (IQR 170-560), with 24 pts still on treatment (Tx). 1 pt is off from a unrelated condition. All pts escalated to V 400 mg w/o any DLTs noted. Treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs) were reported in 100% of pts, and grade 3+ TEAEs were reported in 26 (93%) patients. The most common all-grade TEAEs (≥50% of pts), regardless of relationship to study Tx, were fatigue, neutropenia and diarrhea. Grade ≥3 TEAEs reported in ≥50% pts were neutropenia (68%) and thrombocytopenia (50%). No pts have withdrawn or d/c Tx due to AEs. There was one grade 5 event, in a non-evaluable pt, related to a PE that occurred prior to DLT period. In the 28 evaluable pts the ORR (CR/PR) was 96% (27/28 pts) with CR/CRu of 89%. Of the responding pts, two had PD, one w/ CR and one w/ PR. All pts with PD had baseline TP53 mutation. MRD testing was successful in all pts. At time of submission 20 of 28 (71%) were MRD - at 10-6. Conclusions: Interim results show that at the MTD the combination of V 400 mg daily, L 20 mg, with R is safe with a manageable toxicity profile and a high ORR and MRD - in pts with newly diagnosed MCL. Safety data is consistent with the AE profile noted for each drug without any unexpected or unique AEs. Updated results including BH3 profiling will be presented at the meeting. Clinical trial information: NCT03523975. [Table: see text]

e14645 Background: Despite the increasing availability of targeted and novel therapies, successful treatment of many relapsed/refractory lymphomas remains a challenge. Tumor sequencing is becoming an increasingly available technique to identify potential therapeutic targets; however, there remains considerable uncertainty about the successful application of this data in a “real world” clinical setting. Methods: Herein, we describe 91 lymphoma patients who underwent DNA & RNA sequencing of tumor biopsies via the MIONCOSEQ protocol to identify actionable therapeutic targets. Their charts were reviewed for the clinical use of MIONCOSEQ recommendations. Results: Among the 91 patients were 13 Lymphoma subtypes. Most patients had Stage III/IV disease (68%) at diagnosis, underwent an average of 4 treatments before sequencing (range 0-16) and had approximately 47 distinct molecular alterations (range 2-447). Of the cohort, 60 patients (65%) had actionable targets identified of which 11 ultimately received treatment based on MIONCOSEQ recommendations. The remaining patients did not receive treatment due to multiple reasons: prior CR or on surveillance not requiring treatment (10); death (12); trial ineligibility (4); trial unavailability at the institution (8); patient preference for local treatment (6); and already on alternative treatments (9). Taken as a whole, sequencing late in the disease course and a lack of available clinical trials were identified as barriers for the incorporation of MIONCOSEQ data into clinical practice. Therefore, earlier sequencing and strategies to bolster the availability of targeted therapies may significantly increase the application of genomic data and precision medicine in clinical practice. Conclusions: While next generation sequencing (NGS) is a powerful tool for advancing precision medicine, meaningful clinical application of these results remains a challenge. Our study indicates that early sequencing and improved trial availability could be beneficial in increasing real-world therapeutic options for relapsed/refractory lymphoma. Further research is needed to determine the extent to which a personalized approach, informed by NGS data, improves outcomes.

TPS219 Background: Talimogene laherparepvec, a modified herpes virus agent, induces a response in 65% of injected melanoma tumors. The combination of talimogene laherparepvec with ipilimumab or pembrolizumab appears promising in clinical trials of advanced melanoma. Talimogene laherparepvec-based therapy may be effective in other cancers of the skin and lymph nodes that are anatomically accessible for intratumoral injection. Methods: This phase II study will evaluate intratumoral talimogene laherparepvec monotherapy in 4 parallel disease cohorts: 1) Refractory T cell and NK cell lymphomas including cutaneous T cell lymphoma, 2) Merkel cell carcinoma 3) Cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma and 4) Other advanced/refractory non-melanoma skin cancers. Lymphoma patients must be refractory to or intolerant of all standard life-prolonging therapies. Skin cancer patients must be advanced/unresectable or refractory to one or more treatments including surgery, radiation therapy, or medical therapy. Prior PD-1-directed therapy is allowed. If an objective response is not achieved by Week 12, the PD-1 blocking antibody nivolumab will be added. The primary endpoint is the response rate with talimogene laherparepvec and secondary endpoints include response rate with the combination and overall survival. Using a two-stage design, if 1 or more response is observed in the first 9 patients in each parallel cohort, 8 additional patients will be accrued for a total sample size of 36 to 68 patients across the 4 disease cohorts. Tumor biopsies of injected lesions are mandatory at baseline and Week 6, and optional at Week 16 and the time of progression. Optional biopsies of non-injected lesions (when applicable) at Week 6 and 16 will be analyzed to identify biomarkers of systemic immunity. Tumor tissue and/or blood will be assayed for PD-L1 expression, RNA profiling, immune cell profiling, HVEM, NECTIN 1/2, IDO, tryptophan and L-kynurenine, mutational load, TIL TCR clonality, and prior exposure to herpes simplex type 1 virus and Merkel cell polyomavirus. Clinical trial information: NCT02978625.

e23169 Background: Personalized therapy through the identification of targetable mutations within individual tumors has increasingly become a focus in the management of patients (pts) with relapsed/refractory malignancy. To better understand how this is clinically applied, we reviewed 29 cases of B- and T-cell lymphomas that had genetic sequencing of their tumor. Methods: The electronic medical records of 29 pts who underwent Michigan Oncology Sequencing (MI-ONCOSEQ) testing at the University of Michigan from 2013-2016 were reviewed for disease and treatment history. Reports from whole-genome tumor sequencing were obtained for each patient to identify putative molecular targets. Results: Sixteen male and 13 female pts had a median age of 59 years (range 30-80 years) and median disease stage of IV at diagnosis. Five had CTCL, 5 PTCL, 11 follicular, 1 CLL/ mantle cell (MC), 1 MC, 1 marginal zone, 1 Waldenstrom’s (WM) and 4 DLBCL. Pts received a median of 2 therapies prior to MI-ONCOSEQ biopsy. Targetable mutations were identified in 15 pts and a total of 5 pts underwent MI-ONCOSEQ-based treatments. Bosutinib was given for FYB-FGR fusion, imatinib for FLI1-PDGFRB fusion, and everolimus for activating mTOR mutation with an avg. treatment duration of 3.6 weeks due to progressive disease. Bosutinib and imatinib were 3rd line therapies and everolimus was 5th. Another 2 pts were treated with ibrutinib for transformed WM with MYD88 mutation and bortezomib after classification of DLBCL as ABC-type based on MI-ONCOSEQ results, with CR in both. Other targetable mutations identified include BRAF, CDK, BCL2, EZH2 and NOTCH. Of the remaining 12 pts with targetable mutations, 8 pursued clinical trials, 2 responded to standard therapy, 1 died shortly after genetic analysis and 1 declined further therapy. About 50% of these pts remain alive. Conclusions: Our results demonstrate that targeted therapy is favored after standard therapy or clinical trial options are exhausted. Barriers to its use include the availability of clinical trials, off-label drug access and our incomplete knowledge of driver mutations. With further understanding of disease pathogenesis, we expect personalized therapy will be possible for all patients.

Influenza morbidity and mortality can be severe and costly. Vaccination rates remain suboptimal in cancer patients due to provider- and patient-related factors. The objective of this study was to evaluate whether low-cost provider- and patient-focused interventions would increase influenza vaccination rates at the University of Michigan Comprehensive Cancer Center (UMCCC). This quality improvement project included all patients without documentation of influenza vaccination prior to their first outpatient appointment during the 2011–2012 and 2012–2013 influenza seasons. The multi-stepped intervention included provider and patient reminders. Influenza vaccination rates were compiled using CPT-4 codes. Same-day (with appointment) vaccination rates during the intervention seasons were compared to historical (2005–2011 seasons) controls; vaccination rates were also compared to contemporary control population at the University of Michigan Health System (UMHS). Reasons for non-adherence with vaccination were explored. The cumulative same-day vaccination rate in eligible adults was 10.1 % (2011–2012) and 9.4 % (2012–2013) compared to an average 6.9 % during influenza seasons 2005–2011. Based on logistic regression analysis, there was a 37.6 % (95 % CI 35–40.3 %) and 56.1 % (95 % CI 40.9–73 %) relative increase in the adult vaccination rate associated with the intervention, with 399 and 697 additional vaccinations, respectively, for each season. During the 2012–2013 season, the UMCCC adult vaccination rate was higher compared to the remainder of that of the UMHS. The intervention was well accepted by providers. Reasons for no vaccination were provider- and patient-related. Increasing provider and patient awareness with a simple, inexpensive intervention was associated with higher influenza vaccination rates at a large academic cancer center. The intervention is permanently implemented during influenza seasons.

e18575 Background: Maintenance therapy after AutoHCT improves progression free but not overall survival in MM. Close monitoring and preemptive treatment at biochemical progression may delay clinical relapse of MM while reducing overall drug exposure. However the interval from biochemical to clinical progression is not generally studied, and limits the feasibility of such a preemptive strategy. Methods: In order to analyze patterns of relapse after AutoHCT, we studied biochemical and clinical relapse in 97 AutoHCT recipients with MM. Patients (pts) were monitored with q 3mo serum free light chain, protein electrophoresis and annual bone studies interpreted by standard IMWG criteria. Results: Median age was 60 (47-77), 61% male and 20% with light chain myeloma. Characteristics of the upfront transplant cohort (69%) at diagnosis: International Staging System (ISS) Stage III in 41%, median values of beta2-microglobin (b2m) 3.26, albumin 3.8, high-risk cytogenetics in 35%. Recipients of salvage AutoHCT ( 31%) ...
