ABSTRACT
Background:
Tirabrutinib, a second-generation inhibitor of Bruton's tyrosine kinase, was approved in March 2020 for the treatment of relapsed or refractory primary central nervous system lymphoma (r/r PCNSL) based on phase I/II studies in Japan. We previously reported the overall response rate and safety profile. We describe Karnofsky Performance Status (KPS) and the quality of life (QoL) in patients with r/r PCNSL receiving tirabrutinib based on more than 1-year follow-up data.Methods:
Patients with r/r PCNSL, age ≥20 years, and KPS ≥70 were treated with tirabrutinib once daily at a dose of 320, 480, or 480 mg under fasted conditions. QoL was assessed using questionnaires issued by the European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer (EORTC), namely EORTC QLQ-C30, EORTC QLQ-BN20, and EuroQol 5 dimensions 3-level (EQ-5D-3L) along with KPS.Results:
Forty-four patients (mean age, 60 years [range 29-86]) were enrolled. The median follow-up period was 14.9 months (range, 1.4-27.7). The median KPS of the patients at baseline was 80.0 (range, 70-100), and this remained constant during the treatment. The global health status/QoL in the QLQ-C30 showed significant improvements from baseline through cycles 3-17 and remained relatively constant thereafter until cycle 23. Improvements were also seen in emotional functioning and constipation in the QLQ-C30 segments. Other items of QLQ-C30 and QLQ-BN20, EQ-5D visual analog scales, and EQ-5D index were maintained during the treatment.Conclusions:
Tirabrutinib generally maintains KPS and QoL scores with some improvements in specific QoL items in patients with r/r PCNSL.
