MAIN-CAV: Phase III randomized trial of maintenance cabozantinib (CABO) and avelumab (Av) vs Av after first-line platinum-based chemotherapy in patients (pts) with metastatic urothelial cancer (mUC; Alliance A032001).
Bibliographic record
Abstract
TPS714 Background: 1st-line induction platinum-based chemotherapy followed by switch maintenance Av is the current preferred standard of care in patients (pts) with aUC who do not progress after platinum-based chemotherapy. There is an significant need to further improve outcomes by combining Av with an effective, non-cross resistant therapy with non-overlapping toxicity. CABO is an oral inhibitor of MET, VEGFR and TAM family receptors involved in tumor growth, angiogenesis and immune cell regulation and has shown efficacy in UC in combination with PD-1/PD-1L1 inhibitor. We hypothesized that CABO-Av combination would improve survival vs Av alone and have an acceptable safety profile as switch maintenance therapy in mUC. Methods: MAIN-CAV is a phase III randomized, multicenter, international trial for pts with locally advanced/metastatic UC (including cN3M0 only)) who do not progress after 4-6 cycles of any platinum-based chemotherapy (gem-cis, gem-carbo, MVAC or ddMVAC). 654 adults are randomized 1:1 within 3-10 weeks (wk) after last dose of chemotherapy to receive Av 800 mg IV every 2 wk or Av and CABO 40 mg daily for up to 2 yrs. Key eligibility criteria include ECOG PS 0-1, no prior use of anti-PD(L)1, no CNS metastases, no major surgery within 4 wks, no uncontrolled hypertension or cardiovascular disorders. Pts are stratified based on 1) best response to 1L chemotherapy: complete vs partial response vs stable disease and 2) presence vs absence of visceral metastases. The primary endpoint is overall survival (OS) with assumptions of 1-sided alpha 0.025, power 80%, median OS 21 months (mo) with Av and hazard ratio 0.75, thus hypothesizing median OS 28 mo on CABO-Av. Key secondary endpoints include progression-free survival, safety, tolerability, and efficacy of CABO-Av vs Av alone based on RECIST 1.1 and iRECIST criteria (and PD-L1 status).Quality of life (QOL) are assessed using EQ-5D-5L, PROMIS-Fatigue 4a, EORTC QLQ-C30, EORTC QLQ-BLM30 between pts on CABO-Av vs Av alone. Biomarkers of response and resistance to Av will be assessed using baseline archival tissues, baseline and serial blood, ctDNA, stool and urine. Imaging studies will test the correlation of established and new radiomic signatures with survival, adverse events and QOL and incorporate both radiologic and biologic features to assess their potential association with outcomes. This trial would be the first to systematically address whether adding the multitargeted TKI, CABO, to Av improves survival vs Av alone as 1L maintenance therapy. https://acknowledgments.alliancefound.org .

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.
