Project description:BackgroundPatients with relapsed/refractory (R/R) Philadelphia chromosome-positive (Ph+) acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) have a poor prognosis and limited treatment options.MethodsThe efficacy of inotuzumab ozogamicin (InO), a humanized anti-CD22 monoclonal antibody conjugated to the cytotoxic antibiotic calicheamicin, was evaluated in R/R ALL patients in the phase 1/2 study 1010 (NCT01363297) and open-label, randomized, phase 3 study 1022 (INO-VATE; NCT01564784). This analysis focused specifically on Ph+ R/R ALL patients. In study 1022, Ph+ patients were randomly assigned 1:1 to InO (n = 22) or standard intensive chemotherapy (SC) (n = 27) and 16 Ph+ patients in study 1010 received InO.ResultsIn study 1022, rates of complete remission/complete remission with incomplete hematologic recovery (CR/CRi) and minimal residual disease (MRD) negativity (patients achieving CR/CRi) were higher with InO (CR/CRi = 73%; MRD = 81%) versus SC (CR/CRi = 56%; MRD = 33%). The corresponding rates in study 1010 were 56% (CR/CRi) and 100% (MRD). The hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) rate in study 1022 was 41% versus 19% for InO versus SC; however, there was no benefit in overall survival (median OS: 8.7 vs 8.4 months; hazard ratio, 1.17 [95% CI, 0.64-2.14]). The probability of being event-free (progression-free survival) at 12 months was greater with InO versus SC (20.1% vs 4.8%).ConclusionGiven the substantial improvement in responses and rates of HSCT, InO is an important treatment option for patients with R/R Ph+ ALL. Future studies need to consider better characterization of disease characteristics, more sensitive MRD measurements, MRD-directed therapy before HSCT, and potentially combination therapies, including tyrosine kinase inhibitors.

Project description:To overcome the unfavorable outcome of refractory/relapsed (R/R) Philadelphia chromosome-positive acute lymphoblastic leukemia (Ph+ALL) and conduct allogeneic stem cell transplantation (allo-SCT) safely, we designed a sequential therapy involving a single cycle of Inotuzumab ozogamicin (InO) and Blinatumomab (Blina). Two heavily treated and aged patients with R/R Ph+ALL were treated with the therapy. Both of them achieved complete molecular remission without cytokine release syndrome and underwent allo-SCT without veno-occlusive disease/sinusoidal obstruction syndrome. Although appropriate central nervous system prophylaxis should be added, the InO-Blina sequential therapy is a promising strategy for treating R/R Ph+ALL as a bridging regimen before allo-SCT.

Project description:Acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) remains a disease with poor outcomes in adults. While induction chemotherapy achieves a complete remission in almost 90% of patients, the majority will relapse and die of their disease. Relapsed ALL is associated with a high reinduction mortality and chemotherapy resistance, with allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation offering the only therapy with curative potential. However, there is no efficacious and well tolerated standard regimen accepted as a "bridge" to allogeneic stem cell transplantation or as definitive treatment for patients who are not transplant candidates. Vincristine is an active drug in patients with ALL, but its dose intensity is limited by neurotoxicity, and its full potential as an anticancer drug is thus not realized. Encapsulation of vincristine into sphingomyelin and cholesterol nanoparticle liposomes facilitates dose-intensification and densification to enhanced target tissues with reduced potential for toxicity. Vincristine sulfate liposome injection (VSLI) is associated with significant responses in clinically advanced ALL, and has recently been approved by the US Food and Drug Administration for treatment of relapsed and clinically advanced Philadelphia chromosome-negative ALL. This review provides an overview of the preclinical and clinical studies leading to the approval of VSLI for the treatment of relapsed and refractory ALL, and suggests potential areas of future clinical development.

Project description:AimChinese adults with relapsed/refractory Philadelphia chromosome-negative B-cell precursor acute lymphoblastic leukemia (Ph- ALL) have poor outcomes.Patients & methodsWe conducted a nationwide, retrospective, observational study to assess outcomes in this patient population.ResultsOf the 270 enrolled patients, 31% of patients at last salvage achieved complete remission (CR) or CR with partial hematologic recovery (CRh), with median time to CR/CRh of 30 days and median CR/CRh duration of 2.7 months. The CR/CRh rate was more favorable with earlier versus later lines of salvage (41, 24 and 17% at first, second and third or later salvages, respectively).ConclusionThis dataset serves as an important reference of real-world outcomes using currently available chemotherapy regimens for high-risk Chinese adults with relapsed/refractory Ph- ALL.

Project description:The majority of adult patients affected by B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (B-ALL) will relapse after an initial response, while approximately 20% will display primary resistant disease. Patients suffering from relapsed/refractory B-ALL have a very poor outcome. Allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) still represents the only curative approach, but is not so frequently feasible, because of patient's fitness, donor availability, and the ability to achieve a remission prior to HCT. The estimated remission rates with conventional cytotoxic agents are around 30%, but they are short-lived. These disappointing results led to the introduction of new immunologic-based treatments-blinatumomab and inotuzumab. They produced a substantial improvement in terms of response rates, with the ability, in most cases, to induce a minimal residual disease (MRD)-negative status. Similarly, T cells engineered to express a CD19-specific chimeric antigen receptor (CAR-T) have yielded sensational results among patients with relapsed/refractory B-ALL, with unexpectedly high MRD-negative complete remissions rates. However, the first studies looking at long-term outcomes after CAR-T infusions told us that a significant fraction of such responses are not durable, and may benefit from a consolidation approach such as an allogeneic HCT.

Project description:Relapsed/refractory (R/R) Philadelphia chromosome positive acute lymphoblastic leukemia (Ph + ALL) and lymphoid blast phase of chronic myeloid leukemia (LBP-CML) have poor outcomes. We designed a phase 1/2 study combining inotuzumab ozogamicin with bosutinib for this patient population. Patients with T315I mutation were excluded. Bosutinib was administered daily at three dose levels (300 mg/d, 400 mg/d, 500 mg/d) in a 3 + 3 design. Inotuzumab ozogamicin was dosed weekly during cycle one, and once every 4 weeks subsequently for a total of six cycles. The primary objective was to determine the safety and the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of bosutinib in combination with inotuzumab ozogamicin. Eighteen patients were enrolled (Ph-positive ALL, n = 16; LBP-CML, n = 2). The median age was 62 years (range, 19-74) and the median number of prior therapies was one (range, 1-5). Dose limiting toxicities included grade 3 skin rash and bosutinib 400 mg daily was determined as the MTD. The most frequent grade 3/4 treatment-emergent adverse events were thrombocytopenia (60%) and neutropenia (38%). A complete response (CR) / CR with incomplete count recovery (CRi) was achieved in 15/18 (83%) patients; 11/18 (61%) patients achieved negative measurable residual disease by flow cytometry. Complete molecular response was noted in 10/18 (56%) patients. The 30-day mortality was 0%. After a median follow-up of 44 months, the median duration of response and overall survival were 7.7 months and 13.5 months, respectively. Six patients had a subsequent allogeneic stem cell transplant. No patient developed veno-occlusive disease. Inotuzumab ozogamicin with bosutinib was well tolerated in R/R Ph-positive ALL and LBP-CML.

Project description:Opinion statementWith the introduction of tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) in the management of Philadelphia chromosome-positive acute lymphoblastic leukemia (Ph+ ALL), the prognosis of patients has improved dramatically. Currently, the standard of care in the frontline setting for fit patients is TKI in combination with chemotherapy. Age-adjusted chemotherapy or corticosteroids alone have been used with TKIs in elderly patients with comorbidities with modest long-term benefit. The primary goal of treatment is the achievement of early deep molecular remission as the achievement of complete molecular remission (CMR) at 3 months has been demonstrated to be predictive of higher long-term survival. The probability of attaining this goal by a more potent TKIs like dasatinib or ponatinib is higher, thus we recommend the use of second- or third-generation TKIs over imatinib. Clinicians should be aware of possible fatal cardiovascular events mainly related to ponatinib. Allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (alloHSCT) should still be considered in first remission, especially for younger patients treated with imatinib combination therapy. A subset of patients achieving CMR at 3 months may be able to continue consolidation and maintenance with chemotherapy and TKI without the need for alloHSCT. Because of higher risk of relapses in the central nervous system, intrathecal chemoprophylaxis is mandatory for all patients. New strategies incorporating novel agents, such as antibody-drug conjugates, bispecific monoclonal antibodies, potent TKIs, and CAR T cells are under investigation.

Project description:BACKGROUND:A single-arm, phase 2 trial demonstrated the efficacy and safety of blinatumomab, a bispecific T-cell-engaging antibody construct, in patients with relapsed/refractory (r/r) Philadelphia chromosome-positive (Ph+) acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL), a rare hematologic malignancy with limited treatment options. This study compared outcomes with blinatumomab with those of a historical control treated with the standard of care (SOC). METHODS:The blinatumomab trial enrolled adult patients with Ph+ ALL who were r/r to at least 1 second-generation tyrosine kinase inhibitor (n = 45). Propensity score analysis (PSA) was used to compare outcomes with blinatumomab with those of an external cohort of similar patients receiving SOC chemotherapy (n = 55). The PSA mitigated confounding variables between studies by adjusting for imbalances in the age at diagnosis and start of treatment, sex, duration from diagnosis to most recent treatment, prior allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation, prior salvage therapy, and number of salvage therapies. Bayesian data augmentation was applied to improve power to 80% with data from a phase 3 blinatumomab study in r/r Philadelphia chromosome-negative ALL. RESULTS:In the PSA, the rate of complete remission or complete remission with partial hematologic recovery was 36% for blinatumomab and 25% for SOC, and this resulted in an odds ratio of 1.54 (95% confidence interval [CI], 0.61-3.89) or 1.70 (95% credible interval [CrI], 0.94-2.94) with Bayesian data augmentation. Overall survival favored blinatumomab over SOC, with a hazard ratio of 0.81 (95% CI, 0.57-1.14) or 0.77 (95% CrI, 0.61-0.96) with Bayesian data augmentation. CONCLUSIONS:These results further support blinatumomab as a treatment option for patients with r/r Ph+ ALL.

Project description:The introduction of agents targeted at specific molecular events is changing the treatment paradigms in a number of malignancies. Historically, we have relied entirely on DNA-interactive, cytotoxic drugs for treating patients with leukemia. Increased understanding of the leukemic cell biology and pathogenesis, and the ways they evade the immune surveillance mechanisms, will likely lead to the development of more effective agents, and regimens less reliant on chemotherapy, able to achieve deep levels of disease eradication. In Philadelphia chromosome-positive acute lymphoblastic leukemia, the introduction of increasingly potent tyrosine kinas inhibitors (TKIs) has revolutionized therapy. These drugs have been established as the cornerstone of any therapeutic strategy in this disease, and a number of trials have better defined the best ways to incorporate them into the established paradigms. Despite using TKIs, we have continued to remain reliant on cytotoxic chemotherapy regimens and allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplant to achieve the best long-term outcomes. However, with the introduction of more potent TKIs and other novel agents, as well as better methods for monitoring minimal/measurable residual disease, we are entering an era where we hope to diminish our reliance on transplantation and cytotoxic chemotherapy in this disease.
