Abstract
8506 Background: LUME-Meso is a Phase (Ph) II/III, double-blind, randomized study. N targets MPM by inhibiting VEGFR 1–3, PDGFR α/β, FGFR 1–3, Src and Abl kinases. Primary analysis of the Ph II data demonstrated improved progression-free survival (PFS; hazard ratio [HR]=0.56; 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.34–0.91; p=0.017). Mature Ph 2 OS and updated PFS results are reported here. Methods: Pts with unresectable MPM (ECOG PS 0–1) were stratified by histology (epithelioid/biphasic) and randomized 1:1 to receive ≤6 cycles PEM (500 mg/m2)/CIS (75 mg/m2) Day 1 + N or P (200 mg bid, Days 2–21), followed by N or P monotherapy until progression or toxicity. The primary endpoint was PFS. The primary OS analysis and updated PFS analysis were performed as predefined. Results: 87 pts were randomly assigned (N=44, P=43). OS benefit favored N over P treatment (HR=0.77; 95% CI 0.46–1.29; p=0.319; 62 [71%] OS events) and was greatest in epithelioid pts (HR=0.70; 95% CI 0.40–1.21; p=0.197) with a median (m) OS gain of 5.4 months (mOS [95% CI]: 20.6 [16.2–28.8] N vs 15.2 [12.2–23.6] P). Updated PFS results (HR=0.54; 95% CI 0.33–0.87; p=0.010) also showed greatest benefit for epithelioid pts (HR=0.49; 95% CI 0.30–0.82; p=0.006) with a mPFS gain of 4.0 months (mPFS [95% CI]: 9.7 [7.2–12.4] N vs 5.7 [5.5–7.0] P). Improved forced vital capacity, objective response rates and duration of response were also observed with N treatment. Drug-related adverse events (AEs) in N- vs P-treated pts were 97.7% vs 97.6%. Grade ≥3 AEs of note included neutropenia (27.3% vs 4.9%), ALT (11.4% vs 0) and GGT (6.8% vs 0) elevations, and diarrhea (6.8% vs 0). AEs led to trial discontinuation in only 3 (6.8%) N vs 7 (17.1%) P pts. Conclusions: Mature Ph II OS data show that adding N to standard 1st-line treatment gives a strong signal towards improved OS. Updated PFS confirmed the primary analysis; AEs were manageable. The greatest clinical benefit was observed in pts with epithelioid histology. Median survival of 20.6 months in epithelioid pts treated with N is unprecedented in advanced MPM trials. Ph III is actively recruiting in this pt population. Clinical trial information: NCT01907100.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human 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 source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
