abstract

  • 682 Background: Cabozantinib is a multitargeted tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) that has demonstrated efficacy in mRCC randomized trials. Less is known about the activity of cabozantinib in patients (pts) exposed to immuno-oncology (IO) agents. We explored the real-world effectiveness of cabozantinib, including in pts who had progressed on IO therapy. Methods: Using CKCis, a prospective Canadian database, pts treated with cabozantinib monotherapy as second-line or later were identified. Baseline clinical and treatment characteristics were collected. Rates of partial response (PR), stable disease (SD), progressive disease (PD) and disease control (DCR, PR+SD) were determined along with median time to treatment failure (mTTF) and median overall survival (mOS). Results: A total of 156 pts were identified. Median age was 62 years (range 21-84), 74% of pts had clear-cell histology, and 54% had > 3 sites of metastases (12% in CNS, 47% in bone). At time of cabozantinib start, 34% had KPS score < 80. Outcomes are described below. Conclusions: The effectiveness of cabozantinib observed in this real-world population was consistent with results from clinical trials. Cabozantinib also appears to provide benefit to mRCC pts who have progressed on prior IO therapy, and should be incorporated into contemporary treatment algorithms. Further follow up is ongoing.[Table: see text]
