RESUMO
ABSTRACT: Recent studies demonstrating the feasibility of outpatient chimeric antigen receptor (CAR)-modified T-cell therapy administration are either restricted to CARs with 41BB costimulatory domains or use intensive at-home monitoring. We report outcomes of outpatient administration of all commercially available CD19- and B-cell maturation antigen (BCMA)-directed CAR T-cell therapy using a strategy of no remote at-home monitoring and an early cytokine release syndrome (CRS) intervention strategy. Patients with hematologic malignancies who received CAR T-cell therapy in the outpatient setting during 2022 to 2023 were included. Patients were seen daily in the cancer center day hospital for the first 7 to 10 days and then twice weekly through day 30. The primary end point was to determine 3-, 7-, and 30-day post-CAR T-cell infusion hospitalizations. Early CRS intervention involved administering tocilizumab as an outpatient for grade ≥1 CRS. Fifty-eight patients received outpatient CAR T-cell infusion (33 myeloma, 24 lymphoma, and 1 acute lymphoblastic leukemia). Of these, 17 (41%), 16 (38%), and 9 patients (21%) were admitted between days 0 to 3, 4 to 7, and 8 to 30 after CAR T-cell infusion, respectively. The most common reason for admission was CAR T-cell-related toxicities (33/42). Hospitalization was prevented in 15 of 35 patients who received tocilizumab for CRS as an outpatient. The nonrelapse mortality rates were 1.7% at 1 month and 3.4% at 6 months. In conclusion, we demonstrate that the administration of commercial CAR T-cell therapies in an outpatient setting is safe and feasible without intensive remote monitoring using an early CRS intervention strategy.

The revised 4th edition of the World Health Organization (WHO4R) classification lists myelodysplastic syndromes with ring sideroblasts (MDS-RS) as a separate entity with single lineage (MDS-RS-SLD) or multilineage (MDS-RS-MLD) dysplasia. The more recent International Consensus Classification (ICC) distinguishes between MDS with SF3B1 mutation (MDS-SF3B1) and MDS-RS without SF3B1 mutation; the latter is instead included under the category of MDS not otherwise specified. The current study includes 170 Mayo Clinic patients with WHO4R-defined MDS-RS, including MDS-RS-SLD (N=83) and MDS-RSMLD (N=87); a subset of 145 patients were also evaluable for the presence of SF3B1 and other mutations, including 126 with (87%) and 19 (13%) without SF3B1 mutation. Median overall survival for all 170 patients was 6.6 years with 5- and 10-year survival rates of 59% and 25%, respectively. A significant difference in overall survival was apparent between MDS-RS-MLD and MDS-RS-SLD (P<0.01) but not between MDS-RS with and without SF3B1 mutation (P=0.36). Multivariable analysis confirmed the independent prognostic contribution of MLD (hazard ratio=1.8, 95% confidence interval: 1.1-2.8; P=0.01) and also identified age (P<0.01), transfusion need at diagnosis (P<0.01), and abnormal karyotype (P<0.01), as additional risk factors; the impact from SF3B1 or other mutations was not significant. Leukemia-free survival was independently affected by abnormal karyotype (P<0.01), RUNX1 (P=0.02) and IDH1 (P=0.01) mutations, but not by MLD or SF3B1 mutation. Exclusion of patients not meeting ICC-criteria for MDS-SF3B1 did not change the observations on overall survival. MLD-based, as opposed to SF3B1 mutation-based, disease classification for MDS-RS might be prognostically more relevant.

We examined the individual prognostic contribution of absolute neutrophil (ANC), lymphocyte (ALC), and monocyte (AMC) counts, on overall (OS), leukemia-free (LFS), and myelofibrosis-free (MFFS) survival in essential thrombocythemia (ET). Informative cases (N = 598; median age 59 years; females 62%) were retrospectively accrued from a Mayo Clinic database: JAK2 59%, CALR 27%, triple-negative 11%, and MPL 3%; international prognostic scoring system for ET (IPSET) risk high 21%, intermediate 42%, and low 37%; 7% (37/515) had abnormal karyotype and 10% (21/205) adverse mutations (SF3B1/SRSF2/U2AF1/TP53). At median 8.4 years, 163 (27%) deaths, 71 (12%) fibrotic, and 20 (3%) leukemic transformations were recorded. Multivariable analysis resulted in HR (95% CI) of 16.5 (9.9-27.4) for age > 70 years, 3.7 (2.3-6.0) for age 50-70 years, 2.4 (1.7-3.3) for ANC ≥8 × 109 /L, and 1.9 (1.4-2.6) for ALC <1.7 × 109 /L. The corresponding HR-based scores were 4, 2, 1, and 1, resulting in an new 4-tiered AgeAncAlc (AAA; triple A) risk model: high (5-6 points; median survival 8 years; HR 30.1, 95% CI 17.6-54), intermediate-2 (4 points; median 13.5 years; HR 12.7, 95% CI 7.1-23.0), intermediate-1 (2-3 points; median 20.7 years; HR 3.8, 95% CI 2.3-6.4) and low (0-1 points; median 47 years). The AAA model (Akaike Information Criterion [AIC] 621) performed better than IPSET (AIC 647) and was subsequently validated by an external University of Florence ET cohort (N = 485). None of the AAA variables predicted LFS while ALC <1.7 × 109 /L was associated with inferior MFFS (p = .01). Adverse mutations (p < .01) and karyotype (p < .01) displayed additional prognostic value without disqualifying the prognostic integrity of the AAA model. This study proposes a simple and globally applicable survival model for ET, which can be used as a platform for further molecular refinement. This study also suggests a potential role for immune-related biomarkers, as a prognostic tool in myeloproliferative neoplasms.

We retrospectively examined our experience with midostaurin therapy in 33 consecutive patients (median age 68 years; 58% females) with advanced systemic mastocytosis (adv-SM): aggressive SM (ASM; n = 17), SM associated with another hematologic neoplasm (SM-AHN; n = 14) and mast cell leukemia (MCL; n = 2). KITD816V mutation was detected in 84% of the patients and C findings in 91%. Eleven (33%) patients were previously treated with other cytoreductive drugs, including cladribine (n = 4) and imatinib (n = 3). Median time from diagnosis to initiation of midostaurin therapy was 2.2 months (range 0.3-41). Using modified valent criteria, overall response was 42% (53% ASM, 29% SM-AHN, 50% MCL; p = .22), all classified as being major. Responses included ≥50% reduction in bone marrow mast cells in 40% and normalization of serum tryptase in 29%, of evaluated cases. After a median follow-up of 14.6 months from initiation of midostaurin therapy, 7 (21%) deaths, 1 (3%) leukemic progression, and 18 (55%) treatment discontinuations were documented; median duration of midostaurin treatment was 7.9 months (range 0.5-123) and response duration 21.5 months (range 2.9-123). Most frequent side effect was gastrointestinal (51%) while grade 3/4 neutropenia or thrombocytopenia occurred in 12% of patients. Response to treatment was not predicted by KIT mutation (p = .67) or exposure to prior cytoreductive therapy (p = .44). Median survival was longer in midostaurin responders but not significantly (median 26.5 vs. 16 months; p = .15). Findings from the current study are broadly consistent with previously published clinical trial observations.

We describe our single institution experience with cladribine therapy in 42 patients with systemic mastocytosis (SM): 22 advanced (adv-SM; median age 65 years, 68% males) and 20 indolent/smouldering SM (ISM/SSM; median age 56 years, 45% males); subcategories included eight aggressive, 13 associated with another haematological neoplasm, one mast cell leukaemia, 17 ISM and three SSM. Overall/major response rates were 77%/45% for adv-SM and 70%/60% for ISM/SSM, and median (range) duration of response 10 (4-75) and 46 (4-140) months respectively. A >50% reduction in bone marrow mast cell burden and serum tryptase level was documented in 63% and 67% of patients with adv-SM and 50% and 46% with ISM/SSM respectively. The presence of KIT proto-oncogene, receptor tyrosine kinase (KIT)D816V predicted response in adv-SM: 17 (90%) of 19 with and none of three without the mutation responded (P < 0·01). Treatment-emergent adverse events were mostly limited to transient cytopenias: Grade 3/4 neutropenia, thrombocytopenia, or lymphopenia occurred in 27%, 27% and 27% of patients with adv-SM, and 5%, 5% and 30% with ISM/SSM respectively. The present study provides practical information that might be considered when making treatment choices between cladribine and newer KIT-targeted therapies and identifies the absence of KITD816V as a potential marker of cladribine resistance in advanced SM; the latter observation needs confirmation in a larger study.

The recent association of cerebral venous thrombosis (CVT) with COVID-19 vaccinations prompted the current retrospective review of 74 cases of CVT (median age = 44 years, range 15-85; 61% females) associated with myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPNs), seen at the Mayo Clinic, Catholic University of Rome, and University of Florence, between 1991 and 2021. Disease-specific frequencies were 1.3% (39/2893), 1.2% (21/1811) and 0.2% (3/1888) for essential thrombocythemia, polycythemia vera and primary myelofibrosis, respectively. Cerebral venous thrombosis occurred either prior to (n = 20, 27%), at (n = 32, 44%) or after (n = 22) MPN diagnosis. A total of 72% of patients presented with headaches. Transverse (51%), sagittal (43%) and sigmoid sinuses (35%) were involved with central nervous system hemorrhage noted in 10 (14%) patients. In all, 91% of tested patients harbored JAK2V617F. An underlying thrombophilic condition was identified in 19 (31%) cases and history of thrombosis in 10 (14%). Treatment for CVT included systemic anticoagulation alone (n = 27) or in conjunction with aspirin (n = 24), cytoreductive therapy (n = 14), or both (n = 9). At a median follow-up of 5.1 years (range 0.1-28.6), recurrent CVT was documented in three (4%) patients while recurrent arterial and venous thromboses and major hemorrhage were recorded in 11%, 9% and 14%, respectively. Follow-up neurological assessment revealed headaches (n = 9), vision loss (n = 1) and cognitive impairment (n = 1). The current study lends clarity to MPN-associated CVT and highlights its close association with JAK2V617F, younger age and female gender. Clinical features that distinguish COVID vaccine-related CVT from MPN-associated CVT include, in the latter, lower likelihood of concurrent venous thromboses and intracerebral hemorrhage; as a result, MPN-associated CVT was not fatal.
