Abstract
5502 Background: Pmab is a fully human monoclonal antibody against the epidermal growth factor receptor. We evaluated the safety and efficacy in pts receiving CRT alone or CRT plus pmab (PCRT) as 1st‑line treatment of LASCCHN (sponsored and funded by Amgen Inc.). Methods: Pts with stage III, IVA, or IVB previously untreated LASCCHN of all sites excluding the nasopharynx were randomized 2:3 to open-label CRT or PCRT. CRT included cisplatin 100 mg/m 2 for 3 cycles during standard fractionation radiotherapy (RT). PCRT included pmab 9.0 mg/kg + cisplatin 75 mg/m 2 , both administered with RT as in the CRT arm. The primary endpoint was local regional control (LRC) rate at 2 years; key secondary endpoints included PFS, OS, and safety. Preplanned HPV subset analysis, as determined by p16 immunohistochemistry, was performed on available samples. Results: Of 150 treated pts (87 pts PCRT, 63 pts CRT), 87% were men; median (range) age was 57 (39-77) years; ECOG PS 0: 68%. Of 99 pts with tumor evaluable for HPV, 42% were HPV+. Overall, the 2-year LRC rate (95% CI) was 61% (50%-71%) for PCRT and 68% (54%-78%) for CRT. PFS events occurred in 40% of the PCRT and 35% of CRT arm (HR [95% CI] 1.15 [0.68-1.96]; p=0.61). Death occurred in 36% of the PCRT arm vs 24% of the CRT arm (HR [95% Cl] for OS 1.63 [0.88-3.02]; p=0.12). Disease progression was the cause of death in 22% of PCRT pts and 10% of CRT pts. There were no differences in outcome by tumor HPV status. No difference in fatal adverse events (AEs) was seen between arms. Grade 3+ AEs occurred in 85% vs 68% of pts (PCRT vs CRT). Differences in grade 3+ toxicity between treatment arms (PCRT, CRT) were most pronounced for mucosal inflammation (55%, 24%), radiation skin injury (28%, 13%), dysphagia (40%, 27%), and rash (11%, 0%). RT delays of >10 days occurred in 16% of the PCRT arm and 3% of the CRT arm. Median cisplatin cumulative dose received was 223.1 mg/m 2 in the PCRT arm and 296.9 mg/m 2 in the CRT arm, reflective of differences in planned dose. Conclusions: The addition of pmab to CRT did not show an increase in efficacy and was associated with increased toxicity. Further results of HPV biomarker analysis will be presented.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
