ABSTRACT: Background
Entospletinib (GS-9973) is an oral, selective inhibitor of spleen tyrosine kinase. Entospletinib monotherapy was evaluated in a multicenter, phase II study of subjects with relapsed or refractory B-cell malignancy.Patients and methods
The study included 43 patients with relapsed or refractory diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL). The participants received 800 mg of the original, monomesylate formulation of entospletinib twice daily as a starting dose; the doses could be reduced because of toxicity throughout the study.Results
No patient achieved a complete or partial response, 5 patients (12%) had stable disease, and 26 patients (60%) had progressive disease. Progression-free survival (PFS) at 16 weeks was 3.6% (95% confidence interval [CI], 0.3%-15.3%),
