Durable remissions following combined targeted therapy in patients with CLL harboring TP53 deletions and/or mutations.

ABSTRACT: Fifty-one of 189 evaluable patients from 3 prospective phase 2 trials evaluating a sequential targeted treatment had high-risk chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) with a 17p deletion, TP53 mutation, or both. Twenty-seven patients started treatment with bendamustine debulking before induction and maintenance treatment, which was ibrutinib/ofatumumab (IO) in 21 patients, ibrutinib/obinutuzumab (IG) in 13, and venetoclax/obinutuzumab (AG) in 17. The primary end point was overall response rate after 8 months of induction treatment, which was 81%, 100%, and 94% for IO, IG, and AG, respectively. Minimal residual disease (MRD) was undetectable (uMRD) in peripheral blood (<10-4 by flow cytometry) in 0%, 23%, and 82% of patients, respectively. Median progression-free survival (PFS) was 45 months. Seventeen patients discontinued maintenance treatment due to uMRD: 9 progressed, 2 died without progression (median PFS, 28 months after discontinuation of treatment), and 6 remained in remission after a median observation time of 46 months (range, 6-47 months) after treatment discontinuation. Thus, MRD-guided fixed-duration therapies combining obinutuzumab with venetoclax or ibrutinib can induce deep and durable remissions in CLL patients with high-risk genetic lesions, which can persist after treatment discontinuation (due to a predefined fixed-duration or MRD-guided early termination). The median PFS was 45 months. These trials were registered at www.clinicaltrials.gov as #NCT02345863, #NCT02401503, and #NCT02689141.

Project description:Sinonasal papillomas are benign epithelial tumors of the sinonasal tract that are associated with a synchronous or metachronous sinonasal carcinoma in a subset of cases. Our group recently identified mutually exclusive EGFR mutations and human papillomavirus (HPV) infection in inverted sinonasal papillomas and frequent KRAS mutations in oncocytic sinonasal papillomas. We also demonstrated concordant mutational and HPV infection status in sinonasal papilloma-associated sinonasal carcinomas, confirming a clonal relationship between these tumors. Despite our emerging understanding of the oncogenic mechanisms driving formation of sinonasal papillomas, little is currently known about the molecular mechanisms of malignant progression to sinonasal carcinoma. In the present study, we utilized targeted next-generation DNA sequencing to characterize the molecular landscape of a large cohort of sinonasal papilloma-associated sinonasal carcinomas. As expected, EGFR or KRAS mutations were present in the vast majority of tumors. In addition, highly recurrent TP53 mutations, CDKN2A mutations, and/or CDKN2A copy-number losses were detected; overall, nearly all tumors (n = 28/29; 96.6%) harbored at least one TP53 or CDKN2A alteration. TERT copy-number gains also occurred frequently (27.6%); however, no TERT promoter mutations were identified. Other recurrent molecular alterations included NFE2L2 and PIK3CA mutations and SOX2, CCND1, MYC, FGFR1, and EGFR copy-number gains. Importantly, TP53 mutations and CDKN2A alterations were not detected in matched sinonasal papillomas, suggesting that these molecular events are associated with malignant transformation. Compared to aerodigestive tract squamous cell carcinomas from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) project, sinonasal papilloma-associated sinonasal carcinomas have a distinct molecular phenotype, including more frequent EGFR, KRAS, and CDKN2A mutations, TERT copy-number gains, and low-risk human papillomavirus (HPV) infection. These findings shed light on the molecular mechanisms of malignant progression of sinonasal papillomas and may have important diagnostic and therapeutic implications for patients with advanced sinonasal cancer.
