RESUMO
ABSTRACT: Lisocabtagene maraleucel (liso-cel) demonstrated significant efficacy with a manageable safety profile as third-line or later treatment for patients with relapsed or refractory (R/R) large B-cell lymphoma (LBCL) in the TRANSCEND NHL 001 study. Primary end points were adverse events (AEs), dose-limiting toxicities, and objective response rate (ORR) per independent review committee. Key secondary end points were complete response (CR) rate, duration of response (DOR), progression-free survival (PFS), and overall survival (OS). After 2-year follow-up, patients could enroll in a separate study assessing long-term (≤15 years) safety and OS. Liso-cel-treated patients (N = 270) had a median age of 63 years (range, 18-86 years) and a median of 3 prior lines (range, 1-8) of systemic therapy, and 181 of them (67%) had chemotherapy-refractory LBCL. Median follow-up was 19.9 months. In efficacy-evaluable patients (N = 257), the ORR was 73% and CR rate was 53%. The median (95% confidence interval) DOR, PFS, and OS were 23.1 (8.6 to not reached), 6.8 (3.3-12.7), and 27.3 months (16.2-45.6), respectively. Estimated 2-year DOR, PFS, and OS rates were 49.5%, 40.6%, and 50.5%, respectively. In the 90-day treatment-emergent period (N = 270), grade 3 to 4 cytokine release syndrome and neurological events occurred in 2% and 10% of patients, respectively. The most common grade ≥3 AEs in treatment-emergent and posttreatment-emergent periods, respectively, were neutropenia (60% and 7%) and anemia (37% and 6%). Liso-cel demonstrated durable remissions and a manageable safety profile with no new safety signals during the 2-year follow-up in patients with R/R LBCL. These trials were registered at www.ClinicalTrials.gov as #NCT02631044 and #NCT03435796.

This global phase 3 study compared lisocabtagene maraleucel (liso-cel) with a standard of care (SOC) as second-line therapy for primary refractory or early relapsed (≤12 months) large B-cell lymphoma (LBCL). Adults eligible for autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT; N = 184) were randomly assigned in a 1:1 ratio to liso-cel (100 × 106 chimeric antigen receptor-positive T cells) or SOC (3 cycles of platinum-based immunochemotherapy followed by high-dose chemotherapy and ASCT in responders). The primary end point was event-free survival (EFS). In this primary analysis with a 17.5-month median follow-up, median EFS was not reached (NR) for liso-cel vs 2.4 months for SOC. Complete response (CR) rate was 74% for liso-cel vs 43% for SOC (P < .0001) and median progression-free survival (PFS) was NR for liso-cel vs 6.2 months for SOC (hazard ratio [HR] = 0.400; P < .0001). Median overall survival (OS) was NR for liso-cel vs 29.9 months for SOC (HR = 0.724; P = .0987). When adjusted for crossover from SOC to liso-cel, 18-month OS rates were 73% for liso-cel and 54% for SOC (HR = 0.415). Grade 3 cytokine release syndrome and neurological events occurred in 1% and 4% of patients in the liso-cel arm, respectively (no grade 4 or 5 events). These data show significant improvements in EFS, CR rate, and PFS for liso-cel compared with SOC and support liso-cel as a preferred second-line treatment compared with SOC in patients with primary refractory or early relapsed LBCL. This trial was registered at www.clinicaltrials.gov as #NCT03575351.

Bruton tyrosine kinase inhibitors (BTKi) and venetoclax are currently used to treat newly diagnosed and relapsed/refractory chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL)/small lymphocytic lymphoma (SLL). However, most patients eventually develop resistance to these therapies, underscoring the need for effective new therapies. We report results of the phase 1 dose-escalation portion of the multicenter, open-label, phase 1/2 TRANSCEND CLL 004 (NCT03331198) study of lisocabtagene maraleucel (liso-cel), an autologous CD19-directed chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T-cell therapy, in patients with relapsed/refractory CLL/SLL. Patients with standard- or high-risk features treated with ≥3 or ≥2 prior therapies, respectively, including a BTKi, received liso-cel at 1 of 2 dose levels (50 × 106 or 100 × 106 CAR+ T cells). Primary objectives included safety and determining recommended dose; antitumor activity by 2018 International Workshop on CLL guidelines was exploratory. Minimal residual disease (MRD) was assessed in blood and marrow. Twenty-three of 25 enrolled patients received liso-cel and were evaluable for safety. Patients had a median of 4 (range, 2-11) prior therapies (100% had ibrutinib; 65% had venetoclax) and 83% had high-risk features including mutated TP53 and del(17p). Seventy-four percent of patients had cytokine release syndrome (9% grade 3) and 39% had neurological events (22% grade 3/4). Of 22 efficacy-evaluable patients, 82% and 45% achieved overall and complete responses, respectively. Of 20 MRD-evaluable patients, 75% and 65% achieved undetectable MRD in blood and marrow, respectively. Safety and efficacy were similar between dose levels. The phase 2 portion of the study is ongoing at 100 × 106 CAR+ T cells. This trial was registered at clinicaltrials.gov as NCT03331198.

BACKGROUND: Patients with large B-cell lymphoma (LBCL) primary refractory to or relapsed within 12 months of first-line therapy are at high risk for poor outcomes with current standard of care, platinum-based salvage immunochemotherapy and autologous haematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT). Lisocabtagene maraleucel (liso-cel), an autologous, CD19-directed chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T-cell therapy, has previously demonstrated efficacy and manageable safety in third-line or later LBCL. In this Article, we report a prespecified interim analysis of liso-cel versus standard of care as second-line treatment for primary refractory or early relapsed (within 12 months after response to initial therapy) LBCL. METHODS: TRANSFORM is a global, phase 3 study, conducted in 47 sites in the USA, Europe, and Japan, comparing liso-cel with standard of care as second-line therapy in patients with primary refractory or early (≤12 months) relapsed LBCL. Adults aged 18-75 years, Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance status score of 1 or less, adequate organ function, PET-positive disease per Lugano 2014 criteria, and candidates for autologous HSCT were randomly assigned (1:1), by use of interactive response technology, to liso-cel (100â×â106 CAR+ T cells intravenously) or standard of care. Standard of care consisted of three cycles of salvage immunochemotherapy delivered intravenously-R-DHAP (rituximab 375 mg/m2 on day 1, dexamethasone 40 mg on days 1-4, two infusions of cytarabine 2000 mg/m2 on day 2, and cisplatin 100 mg/m2 on day 1), R-ICE (rituximab 375 mg/m2 on day 1, ifosfamide 5000 mg/m2 on day 2, etoposide 100 mg/m2 on days 1-3, and carboplatin area under the curve 5 [maximum dose of 800 mg] on day 2), or R-GDP (rituximab 375 mg/m2 on day 1, dexamethasone 40 mg on days 1-4, gemcitabine 1000 mg/m2 on days 1 and 8, and cisplatin 75 mg/m2 on day 1)-followed by high-dose chemotherapy and autologous HSCT in responders. Primary endpoint was event-free survival, with response assessments by an independent review committee per Lugano 2014 criteria. Efficacy was assessed per intention-to-treat (ie, all randomly assigned patients) and safety in patients who received any treatment. This trial is registered with ClinicalTrials.gov, NCT03575351, and is ongoing. FINDINGS: Between Oct 23, 2018, and Dec 8, 2020, 232 patients were screened and 184 were assigned to the liso-cel (n=92) or standard of care (n=92) groups. At the data cutoff for this interim analysis, March 8, 2021, the median follow-up was 6·2 months (IQR 4·4-11·5). Median event-free survival was significantly improved in the liso-cel group (10·1 months [95% CI 6·1-not reached]) compared with the standard-of-care group (2·3 months [2·2-4·3]; stratified hazard ratio 0·35; 95% CI 0·23-0·53; stratified Cox proportional hazards model one-sided p<0·0001). The most common grade 3 or worse adverse events were neutropenia (74 [80%] of 92 patients in the liso-cel group vs 46 [51%] of 91 patients in the standard-of-care group), anaemia (45 [49%] vs 45 [49%]), thrombocytopenia (45 [49%] vs 58 [64%]), and prolonged cytopenia (40 [43%] vs three [3%]). Grade 3 cytokine release syndrome and neurological events, which are associated with CAR T-cell therapy, occurred in one (1%) and four (4%) of 92 patients in the liso-cel group, respectively (no grade 4 or 5 events). Serious treatment-emergent adverse events were reported in 44 (48%) patients in the liso-cel group and 44 (48%) in the standard-of-care group. No new liso-cel safety concerns were identified in the second-line setting. There were no treatment-related deaths in the liso-cel group and one treatment-related death due to sepsis in the standard-of-care group. INTERPRETATION: These results support liso-cel as a new second-line treatment recommendation in patients with early relapsed or refractory LBCL. FUNDING: Celgene, a Bristol-Myers Squibb Company.

BACKGROUND: Patients with relapsed or refractory large B-cell lymphoma after first-line treatment who are not intended for haematopoietic stem-cell transplantation (HSCT) have poor outcomes and limited treatment options. We assessed the antitumour activity and safety of lisocabtagene maraleucel, an autologous, CD19-directed chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T-cell product, as second-line treatment in adults with relapsed or refractory large B-cell lymphoma not intended for HSCT. METHODS: PILOT, an open-label, phase 2 trial done at 18 clinical sites in the USA, included adults aged 18 years or older who had relapsed or refractory large B-cell lymphoma and PET-positive disease, had received first-line therapy containing an anthracycline and a CD20-targeted agent, were not intended for HSCT by their physician, and met at least one prespecified transplantation not intended criterion. Patients received lymphodepleting chemotherapy (intravenous fludarabine 30 mg/m2 and intravenous cyclophosphamide 300 mg/m2 daily for 3 days) followed 2-7 days later by two sequential lisocabtagene maraleucel infusions (equal target doses of CD8+ and CD4+ CAR+ T cells for a total target dose of 100 × 106 CAR+ T cells). The primary endpoint was the overall response rate and was assessed in all patients who received lisocabtagene maraleucel and had confirmed PET-positive disease before lisocabtagene maraleucel administration based on an independent review committee according to the Lugano 2014 criteria. Safety was assessed in all patients who received lisocabtagene maraleucel. Patient follow-up is ongoing. This study is registered with ClinicalTrials.gov, NCT03483103. FINDINGS: Between July 26, 2018, and Sept 24, 2021 (data cutoff for the primary analysis), 74 patients underwent leukapheresis and 61 received lisocabtagene maraleucel (efficacy and safety sets); median age was 74 years (IQR 70-78), 24 (39%) patients were women versus 37 (61%) men, and 54 (89%) patients were White. 16 (26%) of 61 patients had an Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance status of 2, 33 (54%) had refractory disease, 13 (21%) relapsed within 1 year of first-line therapy, and 15 (25%) relapsed after 12 months of first-line therapy. Median on-study follow-up was 12·3 months (IQR 6·1-18·0). 49 (80% [95% CI 68-89]; p<0·0001) patients had an overall response. The most common grade 3 or worse treatment-emergent adverse events were neutropenia (29 [48%] patients), leukopenia (13 [21%]), and thrombocytopenia (12 [20%]). Lisocabtagene maraleucel-related serious treatment-emergent adverse events were reported in 13 (21%) patients. There were no treatment-related deaths. Cytokine release syndrome occurred in 23 (38%; grade 3 in one) patients and neurological events in 19 (31%; grade 3 in three) patients, with no grade 4 events or deaths. INTERPRETATION: These results support lisocabtagene maraleucel as a potential second-line treatment in patients with large B-cell lymphoma for whom HSCT is not intended.

BACKGROUND: Lisocabtagene maraleucel (liso-cel) is an autologous, CD19-directed, chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T-cell product. We aimed to assess the activity and safety of liso-cel in patients with relapsed or refractory large B-cell lymphomas. METHODS: We did a seamless design study at 14 cancer centres in the USA. We enrolled adult patients (aged ≥18 years) with relapsed or refractory large B-cell lymphomas. Eligible histological subgroups included diffuse large B-cell lymphoma, high-grade B-cell lymphoma with rearrangements of MYC and either BCL2, BCL6, or both (double-hit or triple-hit lymphoma), diffuse large B-cell lymphoma transformed from any indolent lymphoma, primary mediastinal B-cell lymphoma, and follicular lymphoma grade 3B. Patients were assigned to one of three target dose levels of liso-cel as they were sequentially tested in the trial (50â×â106 CAR+ T cells [one or two doses], 100â×â106 CAR+ T cells, and 150â×â106 CAR+ T cells), which were administered as a sequential infusion of two components (CD8+ and CD4+ CAR+ T cells) at equal target doses. Primary endpoints were adverse events, dose-limiting toxicities, and the objective response rate (assessed per Lugano criteria); endpoints were assessed by an independent review committee in the efficacy-evaluable set (comprising all patients who had confirmed PET-positive disease and received at least one dose of liso-cel). This trial is registered with ClinicalTrials.gov, NCT02631044. FINDINGS: Between Jan 11, 2016, and July 5, 2019, 344 patients underwent leukapheresis for manufacture of CAR+ T cells (liso-cel), of whom 269 patients received at least one dose of liso-cel. Patients had received a median of three (range 1-8) previous lines of systemic treatment, with 260 (97%) patients having had at least two lines. 112 (42%) patients were aged 65 years or older, 181 (67%) had chemotherapy-refractory disease, and seven (3%) had secondary CNS involvement. Median follow-up for overall survival for all 344 patients who had leukapheresis was 18·8 months (95% CI 15·0-19·3). Overall safety and activity of liso-cel did not differ by dose level. The recommended target dose was 100â×â106 CAR+ T cells (50â×â106 CD8+ and 50â×â106 CD4+ CAR+ T cells). Of 256 patients included in the efficacy-evaluable set, an objective response was achieved by 186 (73%, 95% CI 66·8-78·0) patients and a complete response by 136 (53%, 46·8-59·4). The most common grade 3 or worse adverse events were neutropenia in 161 (60%) patients, anaemia in 101 (37%), and thrombocytopenia in 72 (27%). Cytokine release syndrome and neurological events occurred in 113 (42%) and 80 (30%) patients, respectively; grade 3 or worse cytokine release syndrome and neurological events occurred in six (2%) and 27 (10%) patients, respectively. Nine (6%) patients had a dose-limiting toxicity, including one patient who died from diffuse alveolar damage following a dose of 50â×â106 CAR+ T cells. INTERPRETATION: Use of liso-cel resulted in a high objective response rate, with a low incidence of grade 3 or worse cytokine release syndrome and neurological events in patients with relapsed or refractory large B-cell lymphomas, including those with diverse histological subtypes and high-risk features. Liso-cel is under further evaluation at first relapse in large B-cell lymphomas and as a treatment for other relapsed or refractory B-cell malignancies.

BACKGROUND: Pomalidomide, an immunomodulatory drug, was investigated for pediatric brain tumors. The objectives of this analysis were to characterize the PK of pomalidomide and to examine exposure-response relationship in pediatric patients with recurrent or progressive primary brain tumors. METHODS: Nonlinear mixed effects modeling was employed in developing a population PK model of pomalidomide using a total of 343 concentrations from 70 patients. Logistic regression models were used for exposure-response analyses. RESULTS: The PK of pomalidomide was adequately described with a one compartment model with first-order absorption and elimination. Body surface area (BSA) was identified as a statistically significant covariate of apparent clearance and volume of distribution; however, the impact of BSA on exposure parameters was not deemed clinically relevant. Pomalidomide exposure was not associated with higher probabilities of treatment-emergent adverse events or pomalidomide dose interruptions during Cycle 1. Covariates such as BSA, weight, sex, age, and race had no significant effect on safety endpoints. The PK of pomalidomide in pediatric patients with brain tumors was generally consistent with that in adult patients with multiple myeloma after adjustment for BSA. CONCLUSIONS: This is the first study to characterize PK of pomalidomide in pediatric patients, which supports BSA-based dosing for pediatric patients. IMPACT: This is the first study to characterize PK of pomalidomide in pediatric patients, which supports BSA-based dosing for pediatric patients. There is no significant pomalidomide PK difference between adults and pediatrics. Pomalidomide exposure was not associated with higher probabilities of treatment-emergent adverse event or pomalidomide dose interruptions during Cycle 1.

What is this summary about? People diagnosed with a disease called large B-cell lymphoma (LBCL) may experience return, or early relapse, of their disease within the first year after receiving and responding to their first (first-line) treatment regimen. Others may have primary refractory disease, meaning that the disease either did not respond to first-line treatment at all or only responded for a very brief period. Second (second-line) treatment includes immunotherapy followed by high-dose chemotherapy and ASCT, which has the potential to cure LBCL. However, if the disease does not respond to immunotherapy, people cannot receive ASCT, and less than 30% of people are cured.Therefore, new second-line treatment options are required, such as CAR T cell therapy, which uses a person's own genetically engineered lymphocytes, also called T cells, to fight their lymphoma. In this article, we summarize the key results of the phase 3 TRANSFORM clinical study that tested if liso-cel, a CAR T cell treatment, can safely and effectively be used as a second-line treatment for people with early relapsed or primary refractory (relapsed/refractory) LBCL.A total of 184 adults with relapsed/refractory LBCL who were able to receive ASCT were randomly treated with either liso-cel or standard of care (SOC) as second-line treatment. SOC included immunochemotherapy followed by high-dose chemotherapy and ASCT.What were the key takeaways? Almost all (97%) people in the liso-cel group completed treatment, whereas 53% of people in the SOC group did not complete treatment, mostly due to their disease not responding or relapsing, and therefore they were not able to receive ASCT. People who received liso-cel as a second-line treatment lived longer without the occurrence of an unfavorable medical event or worsening of the disease and had a better response to treatment than those who received SOC as second-line treatment. People who received liso-cel reported side effects that researchers considered to be manageable, and that were known to occur with CAR T cell treatment.What were the main conclusions reported by the researchers? Results from the TRANSFORM study support the use of liso-cel as a more effective second-line treatment compared with SOC that is safe for people with relapsed/refractory LBCL.Clinical Trial Registration: NCT03575351 (TRANSFORM study) (ClinicalTrials.gov).
RESUMO
Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is a major cause of chronic liver disease in the Western population. We investigated the association of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) and diabetes mellitus on CYP3A4 activity in human liver tissue from brain dead donors ( n = 74). Histopathologically graded livers were grouped into normal ( n = 24), nonalcoholic fatty liver (NAFL, n = 26), and nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH, n = 24) categories. The rate of conversion of midazolam to its 1-hydroxy metabolite was used to assess in vitro CYP3A4 activity in human liver microsomes (HLM). A proteomics approach was utilized to quantify the protein expression of CYP3A4 and related enzymes. Moreover, a physiologically based pharmacokinetic (PBPK) model was developed to allow prediction of midazolam concentration in NAFL and NASH livers. CYP3A4 activity in NAFL and NASH was 1.9- and 3.1-fold ( p < 0.05) lower than normal donors, respectively. Intrinsic clearance (CLint) was 2.7- ( p < 0.05) and 4.1-fold ( p < 0.01) lower in donors with NAFL and NASH, respectively. CYP3A4 protein expression was significantly lower in NAFL and NASH donors ( p < 0.05) and accounted for significant midazolam hydroxylation variability in a multiple linear regression analysis (ß = 0.869, r2 = 0.762, P < 0.01). Diabetes was also associated with decreased CYP3A4 activity and protein expression. Both midazolam CLint and CYP3A4 protein abundance decreased significantly with increase in hepatic fat accumulation. Age and gender did not exhibit any significant association with the observed alterations. Predicted midazolam exposure was 1.7- and 2.3-fold higher for NAFL and NASH, respectively, which may result in a longer period of sedation in these disease-states. Data suggests that NAFLD and diabetes are associated with the decreased hepatic CYP3A4 activity. Thus, further evaluation of clinical consequences of these findings on the efficacy and safety of CYP3A4 substrates is warranted.

We describe a sequential windowed acquisition of all theoretical fragment ion mass spectra (SWATH-MS) based method for label-free, simultaneous, relative quantification of drug metabolism enzymes in human liver microsomes (HLM; n = 78). In-solution tryptic digestion was aided by a pressure cycling method, which allowed a 90 min incubation time, a significant reduction over classical protocols (12-18 h). Digested peptides were separated on an Acquity UHPLC Peptide BEH C18 column using a 60 min gradient method at a flow rate of 0.100 mL/min. The quadrupole-time-of-flight mass spectrometer (ESI-QTOFMS) was operated in positive electrospray ionization mode, and data were acquired by data-dependent acquisition (DDA) and SWATH-MSALL mode. A pooled HLM sample was used as a quality control to evaluate variability in digestion and quantification among different batches, and inter-batch %CV for various proteins was between 3.1 and 7.8%. Spectral library generated from the DDA data identified 1855 distinct proteins and 25â¯681 distinct peptides at a 1% global false discovery rate (FDR). SWATH data were queried and analyzed for 10 major cytochrome P450 (CYP) enzymes using Skyline, a targeted data extraction software. Further, correlation analysis was performed between functional activity, protein, and mRNA expression for ten CYP enzymes. Pearson correlation coefficient (r) between protein and activity for CYPs ranged from 0.314 (CYP2C19) to 0.767 (CYP2A6). A strong correlation was found between CYP3A4 and CYP3A5 abundance and activity determined using midazolam and testosterone (r > 0.600, p < 0.001). Protein-to-activity correlation was moderate (r > 0.400-0.600, p < 0.001) for CYP1A2, CYP2A6, CYP2B6, CYP2C9, and CYP2E1 and significant but poor (r < 0.400, p < 0.05) for CYP2C8, CYP2C19, and CYP2D6. The findings suggest the suitability of SWATH-MS based method as a valuable and relatively fast analytical technique for relative quantification of proteins in complex biological samples. We also show that protein abundance is a better surrogate than mRNA to predict the activity of CYP activity.

BACKGROUND: The corticosteroid prednisone is an important component of posttransplantation immunosuppressive therapy. Pharmacokinetic parameters of prednisone or its pharmacologically active metabolite, prednisolone, are not well characterized in transplant recipients. The objective of this study was to compare the pharmacokinetics of total and unbound prednisone and prednisolone in diabetic and nondiabetic stable kidney transplant recipients and to evaluate the factors influencing plasma protein binding of prednisolone. METHODS: Prednisone and prednisolone concentration-time profiles were obtained in 20 diabetic and 18 nondiabetic stable kidney transplant recipients receiving an oral dose of 5-10 mg prednisone per day. In addition to drug and metabolite exposures, factors influencing prednisolone protein binding were evaluated using a nonlinear mixed-effects modeling approach. This model takes into account the binding of prednisolone and cortisol to corticosteroid-binding globulin (CBG) in a saturable fashion and binding of prednisolone to albumin in a nonsaturable fashion. Finally, we have investigated the influence of several covariates including diabetes, glucose concentration, hemoglobin A1c, creatinine clearance, body mass index, gender, age, and time after transplantation on the affinity constant (K) between corticosteroids and their binding proteins. RESULTS: In patients with diabetes, the values of dose-normalized area under the concentration-time curves were 27% and 23% higher for total and unbound prednisolone, respectively. Moreover, the ratio of total prednisolone to prednisone concentrations (active/inactive forms) was higher in diabetic subjects (P < 0.001). Modeling protein binding results revealed that the affinity constant of corticosteroid-binding globulin-prednisolone (KCBG,PL) was related to the patient's gender and diabetes status. CONCLUSIONS: Higher prednisolone exposure could potentially lead to the increased risk of corticosteroid-related complications in diabetic kidney transplant recipients.

PURPOSE: A physiologically based pharmacokinetic (PBPK) model for fedratinib was updated and revalidated to bridge a gap between the observed drug-drug interaction (DDI) of a single sub-efficacious dose in healthy participants and the potential DDI in patients with cancer at steady state. The study aimed to establish an appropriate dose for fedratinib in patients coadministered with dual CYP3A4 and CYP2C19 inhibitors, providing quantitative evidence to inform dosing guidance. METHODS: The original minimal PBPK model was developed using Simcyp® Simulator v17. The model was updated by substituting a single distribution rate (Qsac) with 2 separate rates (CLin/CLout) and transitioning to v20. Model parameter updates were further informed with 3 clinical studies, and 3 more studies served as independent validation data. The validated model was applied to simulate potential DDIs between fedratinib and a known dual inhibitor of CYP3A4 and CYP2C19 (fluconazole). RESULTS: Coadministration of fedratinib with fluconazole in patients was predicted to increase fedratinib exposure by < 2-fold in all simulated scenarios. For patients with cancer receiving the approved dose of fedratinib 400 mg once daily along with fluconazole 200 mg daily, the model predicted an approximate 50% increase in fedratinib exposure at steady state. CONCLUSIONS: The updated PBPK model improved description of the observed pharmacokinetics and predicted a low risk of clinically significant DDIs between fedratinib and fluconazole. The quantitative evidence serves as a primary foundation for providing dose guidance in clinical practice for the coadministration of fedratinib with dual CYP3A4 and CYP2C19 inhibitors.
RESUMO
BACKGROUND: Anal sex remains the greatest HIV transmission risk for men who have sex with men and carries substantial population attributable risk among women. Despite a growing array of HIV pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) options, rectal microbicides remain desirable as on demand, non-systemic PrEP. Rectal microbicide product development for PrEP requires understanding the spatiotemporal distribution of HIV infectious elements in the rectosigmoid to optimize formulation development. SETTING: Outpatient setting with healthy research participants. METHODS: Six healthy men underwent simulated receptive anal sex with an artificial phallus fitted with a triple lumen catheter in the urethral position. To simulate ejaculation of HIV-infected semen, autologous seminal plasma laden with autologous blood lymphocytes from apheresis labeled with 111Indium-oxine (cell-associated) and 99mTechnetium-sulfur colloid (cell-free) as HIV surrogates were injected into the rectal lumen through the phallic urethra. Spatiotemporal distribution of each radioisotope was assessed using SPECT/CT over eight hours. Analysis of radiolabel distribution used a flexible principal curve algorithm to quantitatively estimate rectal lumen distribution. RESULTS: Cell-free and cell-associated HIV surrogates distributed to a maximal distance of 15 and 16 cm, respectively, from the anorectal junction (â¼19 and â¼20 cm from the anal verge), with a maximal signal intensity located 6 and 7 cm, respectively. There were no significant differences in any distribution parameters between cell-free and cell-associated HIV surrogate. CONCLUSIONS: Cell-free and cell-associated HIV surrogate distribution in the rectosigmoid can be quantified with spatiotemporal pharmacokinetic methods. These results describe the ideal luminal target distribution to guide rectal microbicide development.
RESUMO
CAR-T therapies have shown remarkable efficacy against hematological malignancies in the clinic over the last decade and new studies indicate that progress is being made to use these novel therapies to target solid tumors as well as treat autoimmune disease. Innovation in the field, including TCR-T, allogeneic or "off the shelf" CAR-T, and autoantigen/armored CAR-Ts are likely to increase the efficacy and applications of these therapies. The unique aspects of these cell-based therapeutics; patient-derived cells, intracellular expression, in vivo expansion, and phenotypic changes provide unique bioanalytical challenges to develop pharmacokinetic and immunogenicity assessments. The International Consortium for Innovation and Quality in Pharmaceutical Development (IQ) Translational and ADME Sciences Leadership Group (TALG) has brought together a group of industry experts to discuss and consider these challenges. In this white paper, we present the IQ consortium perspective on the best practices and considerations for bioanalytical and immunogenicity aspects toward the optimal development of CAR-T and TCR-T cell therapies.

Fedratinib is an oral Janus kinase 2-selective inhibitor for the treatment of adult patients with intermediate-2 or high-risk myelofibrosis; however, some patients have difficulty with oral dosing. This randomized, phase 1, open-label, 2-part crossover study evaluated the relative bioavailability, safety, tolerability, taste, and palatability of fedratinib resulting from various alternative oral administration methods in healthy adults. Participants could receive fedratinib 400 mg orally as intact capsules along with a nutritional supplement; as contents of capsules dispersed in a nutritional supplement, delivered via nasogastric tube; or as a divided dose of 200 mg orally twice daily as intact capsules with a nutritional supplement. Fifty-eight participants received treatment. Total exposure to fedratinib was similar after oral administration of intact capsules or when dispersed in a nutritional supplement (area under the plasma concentration-time curve from time 0 to the time of the last quantifiable concentration geometric mean ratio [AUC0-t GMR] [90% CI], 1.007 [0.929-1.092]). Total exposure to fedratinib was slightly reduced following nasogastric administration (AUC0-t GMR 0.850 [0.802-0.901]) and as a divided dose (AUC0-t GMR 0.836 [0.789-0.886]). No new safety signals were identified for fedratinib, and most participants found the taste and palatability acceptable when dispersed in a nutritional supplement. Overall, results suggest no clinically meaningful differences in total exposure to fedratinib between the tested oral administration methods. These findings may facilitate administration of fedratinib to patients who are intolerant of swallowing the capsule dosage form. (ClinicalTrials.gov: NCT05051553).

PURPOSE: To report the primary analysis results from the mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) cohort of the phase I seamless design TRANSCEND NHL 001 (ClinicalTrials.gov identifier: NCT02631044) study. METHODS: Patients with relapsed/refractory (R/R) MCL after ≥two lines of previous therapy, including a Bruton tyrosine kinase inhibitor (BTKi), an alkylating agent, and a CD20-targeted agent, received lisocabtagene maraleucel (liso-cel) at a target dose level (DL) of 50 × 106 (DL1) or 100 × 106 (DL2) chimeric antigen receptor-positive T cells. Primary end points were adverse events (AEs), dose-limiting toxicities, and objective response rate (ORR) by independent review committee per Lugano criteria. RESULTS: Of 104 leukapheresed patients, liso-cel was infused into 88. Median (range) number of previous lines of therapy was three (1-11) with 30% receiving ≥five previous lines of therapy, 73% of patients were age 65 years and older, 69% had refractory disease, 53% had BTKi refractory disease, 23% had TP53 mutation, and 8% had secondary CNS lymphoma. Median (range) on-study follow-up was 16.1 months (0.4-60.5). In the efficacy set (n = 83; DL1 + DL2), ORR was 83.1% (95% CI, 73.3 to 90.5) and complete response (CR) rate was 72.3% (95% CI, 61.4 to 81.6). Median duration of response was 15.7 months (95% CI, 6.2 to 24.0) and progression-free survival was 15.3 months (95% CI, 6.6 to 24.9). Most common grade ≥3 treatment-emergent AEs were neutropenia (56%), anemia (37.5%), and thrombocytopenia (25%). Cytokine release syndrome (CRS) was reported in 61% of patients (grade 3/4, 1%; grade 5, 0), neurologic events (NEs) in 31% (grade 3/4, 9%; grade 5, 0), grade ≥3 infections in 15%, and prolonged cytopenia in 40%. CONCLUSION: Liso-cel demonstrated high CR rate and deep, durable responses with low incidence of grade ≥3 CRS, NE, and infections in patients with heavily pretreated R/R MCL, including those with high-risk, aggressive disease.

1. The purpose of this study was to investigate the contribution of MRP2 to the efflux of mycophenolic acid (MPA), and its phenyl glucuronide (MPAG) and acyl glucuronide (AcMPAG) metabolites, using Madin-Darby canine kidney II cells stably transfected with human MRP2 gene (MDCKII/MRP2 cells). 2. Compared to parental MDCKII cells, MPAG was significantly translocated from basolateral (BL) to apical (AP) side in MDCKII/MRP2 cells, indicating MPAG is a substrate for MRP2. AcMPAG is highly translocated from BL to AP side in both cells, suggesting that AcMPAG is actively secreted possibly through an efflux transporter other than MRP2. Appreciable translocation of MPA was not observed in MDCKII/MRP2 cells. 3. Furthermore, using MRP2-expressing Sf9 membrane vesicles, the Michaelis-Menten constant (Km) value for MRP2-mediated MPAG transport was calculated at 224.2 ± 42.7 µM. In the vesicle system, cyclosporine, tacrolimus and sirolimus did not inhibit the uptake of MPAG via MRP2. 4. These findings indicate that only MPAG not MPA and AcMPAG is a substrate for MRP2 and that the interaction between MPAG and concomitantly administered immunosuppressive agents does not occur at MRP2 level.

1. Disposition of tacrolimus and its major metabolites, 13-O-desmethyl tacrolimus and 15-O-desmethyl tacrolimus, was evaluated in stable kidney transplant recipients in relation to diabetes mellitus and genetic polymorphism of cytochrome P450 (CYP) 3A. 2. Steady-state concentration-time profiles were obtained for 12-hour or 2-hour post-dose, in 20 (11 with diabetes) and 32 (24 with diabetes) patients, respectively. In addition, single nucleotide polymorphisms of the following genes: CYP3A4 (CYP3A4: CYP3A4*1B, -392A > G), 3A5 (CYP3A5: CYP3A5*3, 6986A > G) and P-glycoprotein (ABCB1: 3435C > T) were characterized. 3. Dose-normalized concentrations of tacrolimus or metabolites were higher in diabetic patients. CYP3A4*1B carriers and CYP3A5 expressers, independently or when assessed as a combined CYP3A4-3A5 genotype, had significantly lower dose-normalized pre-dose (C0/dose) and 2-hour post-dose (C2/dose) concentrations of tacrolimus and metabolites. Non-diabetic patients with at least one CYP3A4*1B and CYP3A5*1 allele had lower C0/dose as compared to the rest of the population. 4. Genetic polymorphism of CYP3A5 or CYP3A4 influence tacrolimus or metabolites dose-normalized concentrations but not metabolite to parent concentration ratios. The effect of diabetes on tacrolimus metabolism is subject to debate and requires a larger sample size of genetically stratified subjects.

With the promise of a potentially "single dose curative" paradigm, CAR-T cell therapies have brought a paradigm shift in the treatment and management of hematological malignancies. Both CAR-T and TCR-T cell therapies have also made great progress toward the successful treatment of solid tumor indications. The field is rapidly evolving with recent advancements including the clinical development of "off-the-shelf" allogeneic CAR-T therapies that can overcome the long and difficult "vein-to-vein" wait time seen with autologous CAR-T therapies. There are unique clinical pharmacology, pharmacometric, bioanalytical, and immunogenicity considerations and challenges in the development of these CAR-T and TCR-T cell therapies. Hence, to help accelerate the development of these life-saving therapies for the patients with cancer, experts in this field came together under the umbrella of International Consortium for Innovation and Quality in Pharmaceutical Development (IQ) to form a joint working group between the Clinical Pharmacology Leadership Group (CPLG) and the Translational and ADME Sciences Leadership Group (TALG). In this white paper, we present the IQ consortium perspective on the best practices and considerations for clinical pharmacology and pharmacometric aspects toward the optimal development of CAR-T and TCR-T cell therapies.

Lisocabtagene maraleucel (liso-cel) is an autologous, CD19-directed, chimeric antigen receptor T-cell product for the treatment of adult patients with relapsed or refractory large B-cell lymphoma (LBCL) after 2 or more lines of systemic therapy. In vivo cellular expansion after single-dose administration of liso-cel has been characterized. In this article, in vivo liso-cel expansion in the pivotal study TRANSCEND NHL 001 (ClinicalTrials.gov identifier, NCT02631044) was further characterized to assess the relationship between in vivo cellular expansion after single-dose administration of liso-cel and efficacy or safety after adjusting for key baseline characteristics. Two bioanalytical methods, quantitative polymerase chain reaction and flow cytometry, were used for the assessment of cellular kinetics of liso-cel, which showed high concordance for in vivo cellular expansion. Multivariable logistic regression analyses demonstrated that higher in vivo cellular expansion of liso-cel was associated with a higher overall response and complete response rate, and a higher incidence of cytokine release syndrome and neurological events in patients with relapsed or refractory LBCL. Age and tumor burden (by sum of the product of perpendicular diameters) were likely to confound the relationship between in vivo cellular expansion and efficacy, where the association became stronger after controlling for these factors. Repeat dosing of liso-cel was tested in the study; however, in vivo cellular expansion of liso-cel was lower after repeat dosing than after the initial dose. These findings should enable a comprehensive understanding of the in vivo cellular kinetics of liso-cel and the association with outcomes in relapsed/refractory LBCL.
