Impact of consensus molecular subtyping (CMS) on overall survival (OS) and progression free survival (PFS) in patients (pts) with metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC): Analysis of CALGB/SWOG 80405 (Alliance).

3511 Background: CALGB 80405 was a randomized Ph3 trial showing no OS or PFS difference in mCRC pts treated with Bevacizumab (BV) or Cetuximab (Cet) in the first line. A Nanostring platform was used to determine the CMS classification of 392 KRAS wt (codon 12 and 13) primary tumors and correlated it with OS and PFS in patients enrolled in 80405. Methods: CMS for 392 of 431tumors were defined using a custom CRC Nanostring panel (39 CMS classification not possible). Stratified Cox proportional hazard model was used to evaluate the effect of CMS classification stratified by prior radiation, prior chemotherapy, adjusting for age, sex, race, primary in place, liver met only, and sidedness. Results: We found CMS1 (14%), CMS2 (47%), CMS3 (2%), CMS4 (29%), NonConsensus (8%). Results are shown in Table 1. Patients with CMS1 who received BV had significantly longer OS than those who received Cet (HR 0.47, 95% CI [0.24, 0.92]). Patients with CMS2 who received BV tended to have shorter OS than those who received Cet (HR 1.41, CI [0.95, 2.08]). Conclusions: Our data suggest that CMS is associated with OS and PFS in first line therapy in mCRC patients. Preliminary data suggest that certain CMS may be associated with efficacy of Bev and Cet based chemotherapy. CMS classification should be explored as a stratification factor in future trials.
