Background: We report an exploratory, post hoc subgroup analysis in pts with BPI and BAU data receiving nal-IRI+5-FU/LV, nal-IRI or 5-FU/LV in NAPOLI-1 (NCT01494506). In this pivotal trial, nal-IRI+5-FU/LV improved median OS (mOS) vs. 5-FU/LV (6.1 vs. 4.2 mo [HR=0.67; p=0.012]). Methods: BPI/BAU included an average of 3-7 days pt-recorded data before randomisation. Greater values indicated greater pain for BPI using a 100 mm visual analogue scale. BAU was converted to morphine equivalent mg/day. Results: Of 417 ITT pts, 295 had BPI and 299 had BAU data. Mean and median BPI were 28.6 and 25.0, respectively, and BAU were 33.3 and 8.1 mg/day, respectively. The percentage of pts with KPS ≥ 80 was higher in ≤ mean/≤ median (n=159/148) BPI groups vs. > mean/> median (n=136/147) BPI groups (96-97 vs. 83%) and in ≤mean/≤median (n=207/150) BAU groups vs. > mean/> median (n=92/149) BAU groups (95-97 vs. 82-85%). mOS and median PFS (mPFS) were higher for nal-IRI+5-FU/LV vs 5-FU/LV in all groups, with ≤ mean/≤ median BPI or BAU showing better outcomes vs. > mean/> median BPI or BAU (Table). Conclusions: BPI and BAU appear to have a prognostic effect on outcomes in mPDAC pts in the NAPOLI-1 study. No predictive effect was observed, with nal-IRI+5-FU/LV showing higher mOS vs. 5-FU/LV in all groups.
