Acalabrutinib-obinutuzumab improves survival vs chemoimmunotherapy in treatment-naive CLL in the 6-year follow-up of ELEVATE-TN.

ABSTRACT:

Abstract

Acalabrutinib is a Bruton tyrosine kinase inhibitor approved for the treatment of chronic lymphocytic leukemia. We present results from ELEVATE-TN after a median follow-up of 74.5 months. Overall, 535 patients were randomized (acalabrutinib-obinutuzumab, n = 179; acalabrutinib, n = 179; chlorambucil-obinutuzumab, n = 177). Median age was 70 years, 63.0% had unmutated immunoglobulin heavy chain variable region gene (uIGHV), 13.6% had del(17p) and/or mutated TP53, and 17% had complex karyotype (CK; ≥3 chromosomal abnormalities). Median progression-free survival (PFS) was not reached (NR) for acalabrutinib-obinutuzumab and acalabrutinib vs 27.8 months for chlorambucil-obinutuzumab (both P < .0001); estimated 72-month overall PFS rates were 78.0%, 61.5%, and 17.2%, respectivel
