362 Background: Although FOLFIRINOX (5-Fluorouracil + leucovorin + irinotecan + oxaliplatin) is now the standard of care for patients (pts) with metastatic pancreatic cancer (PC) based on the 2011 study by Conroy et al. which demonstrated improved median overall survival (mOS) (11.1 vs 6.8 months [m] with gemcitabine, P 〈 0.001), pts 〉 75 yrs old were excluded from this study. As per SEER 2011-2015 data, 38% of new PC cases are diagnosed in pts age 〉 75. The purpose of this study was to assess the safety and efficacy of FOLFIRINOX in this group of pts. Methods: We retrospectively analyzed unresectable PC pts, age ≥ 75, treated with FOLFIRINOX at MD Anderson since 2011. Data obtained include demographics, line of treatment (tx), starting dose, progression free survival (PFS), OS and toxicities. Response was determined by chart documentation. Primary outcomes were mOS and rates of grade 3/4 hematologic toxicity (HT). Results: A total of 24 pts (19 male) were included with median age of 76 (range 75 to 84). 18 had metastatic disease, and FOLFIRINOX was the 1st line of tx for 18 of the 24 pts. The median number of cycles administered was 4 (range 1 to 12). The most frequent starting doses of infusional 5-FU, irinotecan and oxaliplatin were 2400, 150 and 75 mg/m 2 , respectively. Bolus 5-FU and leucovorin were omitted in all but 3 pts. Median PFS was 3.7 m (95% CI: 3.0-5.7) with mOS of 11.6 m (95% CI: 6.14-15.7). 16 pts (67%) experienced disease control (response to tx or stable disease). Grade 3 or 4 HT occurred in 11 pts (46%), and 9 (38%) were supported with granulocyte colony-stimulating factor at some point during tx. 6 pts (25%) required hospital admission for any toxicity, most commonly infection (3 pts), and 10 (42%) stopped FOLFIRINOX due to toxicity, most commonly fatigue (6 pts). Conclusions: In this single-center retrospective analysis of 24 unresectable PC pts age 75 or older given FOLFIRINOX, OS outcomes were similar to those reported by Conroy et al in the original trial which excluded pts older than 75. In our review, toxicities including incidences of grade 3 or 4 HT were similar to those reported in the initial study. These data indicate that the use of modified dosing FOLFIRINOX in advanced PC pts older than 75 appears to maintain similar efficacy and toxicity when compared to younger pts.
