Targeting CD19-positive lymphomas with the antibody-drug conjugate loncastuximab tesirine: preclinical evidence as single agent and in combination therapy.

Antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) represent one of the most successful therapeutic approaches introduced in clinical practice in the last few years. Loncastuximab tesirine (ADCT-402) is a CD19 targeting ADC, in which the antibody is conjugated through a protease cleavable dipeptide linker to a pyrrolobenzodiazepine (PBD) dimer warhead (SG3199). Based on the results of a phase 2 study, loncastuximab tesirine was recently approved for adult patients with relapsed/refractory large B-cell lymphoma. We assessed the activity of loncastuximab tesirine using in vitro and in vivo models of lymphomas, correlated its activity with CD19 expression levels, and identified combination partners providing synergy with loncastuximab tesirine. Loncastuximab tesirine was tested across 60 lymphoma cell lines. Loncastuximab tesirine had strong cytotoxic activity in B-cell lymphoma cell lines. The in vitro activity was correlated with CD19 expression level and intrinsic sensitivity of cell lines to the ADC's warhead. Loncastuximab tesirine was more potent than other anti-CD19 ADCs (coltuximab ravtansine, huB4-DGN462), albeit the pattern of activity across cell lines was correlated. Loncastuximab tesirine activity was also largely correlated with cell line sensitivity to R-CHOP. Combinatorial in vitro and in vivo experiments identified the benefit of adding loncastuximab tesirine to other agents, especially BCL2 and PI3K inhibitors. Our data support the further development of loncastuximab tesirine as a single agent and in combination for patients affected by mature B-cell neoplasms. The results also highlight the importance of CD19 expression and the existence of lymphoma populations characterized by resistance to multiple therapies.

Allogeneic CAR T Cells: Complex Cellular Therapy Designs Test the Limits of Our Preclinical Models.

All chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T-cell products currently approved by the FDA are autologous, which poses several challenges for widespread use. In this issue, Degagné and colleagues present their preclinical research on creating off-the-shelf CAR T cells for multiple myeloma. They utilized the CRISPR/Cas12a genome editing platform and gene knock-in techniques to eliminate alloreactivity and decrease susceptibility to natural killer (NK)-cell elimination. This work has led to an ongoing phase I trial of off-the-shelf CAR T cells for multiple myeloma treatment. See related article by Degagné et al., p. 462 (2).

In relapsed or refractory diffuse large B-cell lymphoma, CD19 expression by immunohistochemistry alone is not a predictor of response to loncastuximab tesirine.

CD19-targeting treatments have shown promise in relapsed/refractory (R/R) diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL). Loncastuximab tesirine (loncastuximab tesirine-lpyl [Lonca]) is a CD19-targeting antibody-drug conjugate indicated for R/R DLBCL after at least two systemic treatments. CD19 expression was evaluated in patients receiving Lonca in the LOTIS-2 clinical trial with available tissue samples obtained after last systemic therapy/before Lonca treatment. Lonca cytotoxicity was evaluated in a panel of six lymphoma cell lines with various CD19 expression levels. Quantitative systems pharmacology (QSP) modelling was used to predict Lonca responses. Lonca responses were seen in patients across all CD19 expression levels, including patients with low/no detectable CD19 expression and H-scores at baseline. Similarly, Lonca induced cytotoxicity in cell lines with different levels of CD19 expression, including one with very low expression. QSP modelling predicted that CD19 expression by immunohistochemistry alone does not predict Lonca response, whereas inclusion of CD19 surface density improved response prediction. Virtual patients responded to Lonca with estimated CD19 as low as 1000 molecules/cell of CD19, normally below the immunohistochemistry detection level. We found Lonca is an effective treatment for R/R DLBCL regardless of CD19 expression by immunohistochemistry. These results provide the basis for future studies addressing CD19-targeted agent sequencing.

A multicenter study of posttransplantation low-dose inotuzumab ozogamicin to prevent relapse of acute lymphoblastic leukemia.

ABSTRACT: The curative potential of allogeneic hematopoietic transplantation (allo-HCT) in patients with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) is hampered by relapse. Inotuzumab ozogamicin (INO) is an anti-CD22 monoclonal antibody bound to calicheamicin, which has significant activity against ALL. We hypothesized that low-dose INO would be safe and feasible after allo-HCT. Therefore, we conducted a phase 1 study to determine the dose and safety in this setting. Patients were eligible if they were aged 16 to 75 years, had undergone allo-HCT for CD22+ ALL, were in complete remission (CR) after allo-HCT, had high risk of recurrence, were between day 40 and 100 after allo-HCT with adequate graft function, and did not have a history of sinusoidal obstruction syndrome (SOS). The objectives of this trial were to define INO maximum tolerated dose (MTD), to determine post-allo-HCT INO safety, and to measure 1-year progression-free survival (PFS). The trial design followed a "3+3" model. The treatment consisted of INO given on day 1 of 28-day cycles. Dose levels were 0.3 mg/m2, 0.4 mg/m2, 0.5 mg/m2, and 0.6 mg/m2. Median age was 44 years (range, 17-66 years; n = 18). Disease status at transplantation was first CR (n = 14) or second CR or beyond (n = 4). Preparative regimen was of reduced intensity in 72% of patients who received transplantation. Most common toxicity was thrombocytopenia. There were no instances of SOS; the MTD was 0.6 mg/m2. One-year nonrelapse mortality was 5.6%. With a median follow-up of 18.1 months (range, 8.6-59 months) 1-year post-allo-HCT PFS and overall survival is 89% and 94%, respectively. Low-dose INO has a favorable safety profile and was associated with high rates of 1-year PFS. This trial was registered at www.clinicaltrials.gov as #NCT03104491.

A paradox of choice: Sequencing therapy in relapsed/refractory diffuse large B-cell lymphoma.

The available treatments for relapsed or refractory (R/R) diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) have experienced a dramatic change since 2017. Incremental advances in basic and translational science over several decades have led to innovations in immune-oncology. These innovations have culminated in eight separate approvals by the US Food and Drug Administration for the treatment of patients with R/R DLBCL over the last 10 years. High-dose therapy and autologous stem cell transplant (HDT-ASCT) remains the standard of care for transplant-eligible patients who relapse after an initial remission. For transplant-ineligible patients or for those who relapse following HDT-ASCT, multiple options exist. Monoclonal antibodies targeting CD19, antibody-drug conjugates, bispecific antibodies, immune effector cell products, and other agents with novel mechanisms of action are now available for patients with R/R DLBCL. There is increasing use of chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T-cells as second-line therapy for patients with early relapse of DLBCL or those who are refractory to initial chemoimmunotherapy. The clinical benefits of these strategies vary and are influenced by patient and disease characteristics, as well as the type of prior therapy administered. Therefore, there are multiple clinical scenarios that clinicians might encounter when treating R/R DLBCL. An optimal sequence of drugs has not been established, and there is no evidence-based consensus on how to best order these agents. This abundance of choices introduces a paradox: proliferating treatment options are initially a boon to patients and providers, but as choices grow further they no longer liberate. Rather, more choices make the management of R/R DLBCL more challenging due to lack of direct comparisons among agents and a desire to maximize patient outcomes. Here, we provide a review of recently-approved second- and subsequent-line agents, summarize real-world data detailing the use of these medicines, and provide a framework for sequencing therapy in R/R DLBCL.

Loncastuximab tesirine in relapsed/refractory diffuse large B-cell lymphoma: long-term efficacy and safety from the phase II LOTIS-2 study.

Therapies that demonstrate durable, long-term responses with manageable safety and tolerability are needed for patients with relapsed/refractory diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (R/R DLBCL). Loncastuximab tesirine (loncastuximab tesirine-lpyl [Lonca]), an anti-CD19 antibody conjugated to a potent pyrrolobenzodiazepine dimer, demonstrated single-agent antitumor activity in the pivotal phase II LOTIS-2 study in heavily pretreated patients with R/R DLBCL. Here we present updated efficacy and safety analyses from LOTIS-2, performed for all patients and in subsets of patients with a complete response (CR), including patients with CR who were event-free (no progressive disease or death) for ≥1 year and ≥2 years from cycle 1, day 1 of treatment. Lonca was administered every 3 weeks (0.15 mg/kg for 2 cycles; 0.075 mg/kg for subsequent cycles). As of the final data cutoff (September 15, 2022; median follow-up: 7.8 months [range, 0.3-42.6]), 70 of 145 (48.3%) patients achieved an overall response. Thirty-six (24.8%) patients achieved CR, of which 16 (44%) and 11 (31%) were event-free for ≥1 year and ≥2 years, respectively. In the all-treated population, the median overall survival was 9.5 months; the median progression-free survival was 4.9 months. Among patients with CR, median overall survival and progression-free survival were not reached, with 24-month overall and progression-free survival rates of 68.2% (95% CI: 50.0-81.0) and 72.5% (95% CI: 48.2-86.8), respectively. No new safety concerns were detected. With additional follow-up, Lonca continued to demonstrate durable, long-term responses with manageable safety and tolerability in patients with CR (clinicaltrials gov. Identifier: NCT03589469).

PET/CT Biomarkers Enable Risk Stratification of Patients with Relapsed/Refractory Diffuse Large B-cell Lymphoma Enrolled in the LOTIS-2 Clinical Trial.

PURPOSE: Significant progress has occurred in developing quantitative PET/CT biomarkers in diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL). Total metabolic tumor volume (MTV) is the most extensively studied, enabling assessment of FDG-avid tumor burden associated with outcomes. However, prior studies evaluated the outcome of cytotoxic chemotherapy or chimeric antigen receptor T-cell therapy without data on recently approved FDA agents. Therefore, we aimed to assess the prognosis of PET/CT biomarkers in patients treated with loncastuximab tesirine. EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN: We centrally reviewed screening PET/CT scans of patients with relapsed/refractory DLBCL enrolled in the LOTIS-2 (NCT03589469) study. MTV was obtained by computing individual volumes using the SUV ≥4.0 threshold. Other PET/CT metrics, clinical factors, and the International Metabolic Prognostic Index (IMPI) were evaluated. Logistic regression was used to assess the association between biomarkers and treatment response. Cox regression was used to determine the effect of biomarkers on time-to-event outcomes. We estimated biomarker prediction as continuous and binary variables defined by cutoff points. RESULTS: Across 138 patients included in this study, MTV with a cutoff point of 96 mL was the biomarker associated with the highest predictive performance in univariable and multivariable models to predict failure to achieve complete metabolic response (OR, 5.42; P = 0.002), progression-free survival (HR, 2.68; P = 0.002), and overall survival (HR, 3.09; P < 0.0001). IMPI demonstrated an appropriate performance, however, not better than MTV alone. CONCLUSIONS: Pretreatment MTV demonstrated robust risk stratification, with those patients demonstrating high MTV achieving lower responses and survival to loncastuximab tesirine in relapsed/refractory DLBCL.

NCCN Guidelines® Insights: B-Cell Lymphomas, Version 6.2023.

Novel targeted therapies (small molecule inhibitors, antibody-drug conjugates, and CD19-directed therapies) have changed the treatment landscape of relapsed/refractory B-cell lymphomas. Bruton's tyrosine kinase (BTK) inhibitors continue to evolve in the management of mantle cell lymphoma (MCL), in both the relapsed/refractory and the frontline setting. Anti-CD19 CAR T-cell therapies are now effective and approved treatment options for relapsed/refractory follicular lymphoma (FL), diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL), and MCL. Bispecific T-cell engagers represent a novel immunotherapeutic approach for relapsed FL and DLBCL after multiple lines of therapies, including prior CAR T-cell therapy. These NCCN Guideline Insights highlight the significant updates to the NCCN Guidelines for B-Cell Lymphomas for the treatment of FL, DLBCL, and MCL.

Outcomes of limited stage primary bone diffuse large B-cell lymphoma in the rituximab era: a multicenter, retrospective study.

Primary bone diffuse large B cell lymphoma (DLBCL) is a rare variant of extranodal non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) historically treated with induction chemotherapy followed by consolidative radiation therapy (RT). It remains unknown whether RT confers additional benefit following rituximab-based chemoimmunotherapy (CIT) induction in patients with limited-stage disease. We conducted a multicenter retrospective analysis of patients treated between 2005 and 2019 using rituximab-based CIT regimens with or without consolidative RT to discern whether consolidative RT adds benefit in patients with stage I-II disease that could be encompassed in one radiation field. A total of 112 patients were included: 78 received CIT and radiation (RT group), and 34 received CIT alone (no RT group). The OS at 10 years was 77.9% in the RT group and 89.0% in the no RT group (p = 0.42). The RFS at 10 years was 73.5% in the RT group and 80.3% in the no RT group (p = 0.88). Neither improved OS nor RFS was associated with the addition of consolidative RT. Subgroup analysis of patients only achieving a partial response after CIT suggests that these patients may benefit from consolidative RT.

Outcomes of patients with blastoid and pleomorphic variant mantle cell lymphoma.

Mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) is a B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma; data indicate that blastoid and pleomorphic variants have a poor prognosis. We report characteristics and outcomes of patients with blastoid/pleomorphic variants of MCL. We retrospectively studied adults with newly diagnosed MCL treated from 2000 to 2015. Primary objectives were to describe progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS). Secondary objectives included characterization of patient characteristics and treatments. Of the 1029 patients with MCL studied, a total of 207 neoplasms were blastoid or pleomorphic variants. Median follow-up period was 82 months (range, 0.1-174 months); median PFS was 38 months (95% confidence interval [CI], 28-66) and OS was 68 months (95% CI, 45-96). Factors associated with PFS were receipt of consolidative autologous hematopoietic transplantation (auto-HCT; hazard ratio [HR], 0.52; 95% CI, 0.31-0.80; P < .05), MCL International Prognostic Index (MIPI) intermediate (HR, 2.3; 95% CI, 1.2-4.3; P < .02) and high (HR, 3.8; 95% CI, 2.0-7.4; P < .01) scores, and complete response to induction (HR, 0.29 (95% CI, 0.17-0.51). Receipt of auto-HCT was not associated with OS (HR, 0.69; 95% CI, 0.41-1.16; P = .16) but was associated with MIPI intermediate (HR, 5.7; 95% CI, 2.5-13.2; P < .01) and high (HR, 10.8; 95% CI, 4.7-24.9; P < .01) scores. We report outcomes in a large cohort of patients with blastoid/pleomorphic variant MCL. For eligible patients, receipt of auto-HCT after induction was associated with improved PFS but not OS. Higher MIPI score and auto-HCT ineligibility were associated with worse survival.

Tafasitamab and lenalidomide in large B-cell lymphoma: real-world outcomes in a multicenter retrospective study.

ABSTRACT: In this real-world evaluation of tafasitamab-lenalidomide (TL) in relapsed or refractory LBCL, patients receiving TL had higher rates of comorbidities and high-risk disease characteristics, and substantially lower progression-free survival and overall survival, compared with the L-MIND registration clinical trial for TL.

Adjunct Therapy with T Regulatory Cells Decreases Inflammation and Preserves the Anti-Tumor Activity of CAR T Cells.

With greater accessibility and an increased number of patients being treated with CAR T cell therapy, real-world toxicity continues to remain a significant challenge to its widespread adoption. We have previously shown that allogeneic umbilical cord blood-derived (UCB) regulatory T cells (Tregs) can resolve inflammation and treat acute and immune-mediated lung injuries. Allogeneic, cryopreserved UCB Tregs have shown a clinical benefit in patients suffering from COVID-19 acute respiratory distress syndrome. The unique properties of UCB Treg cells include a lack of plasticity under inflammatory micro-environments, no requirement for HLA matching, a long shelf life of cryopreserved cells, and immediate product availability, which makes them attractive for treating acute inflammatory syndromes. Therefore, we hypothesized that adjunct therapy with UCB Tregs may resolve the undesirable inflammation responsible for CAR T cell therapy-associated toxicity. In in vitro analysis, no interference from the addition of UCB Tregs was observed on CD19 CAR T cells' ability to kill CD19 Raji cells at different CAR T: Raji cell ratios of 8:1 (80.4% vs. 81.5%); 4:1 (62.0% vs. 66.2%); 2:1 (50.1% vs. 54.7%); and 1:1 (35.4% vs. 44.1%). In the xenogeneic B-cell lymphoma model, multiple injections of UCB Tregs were administered 3 days after CD19 CAR T cell injection, and no detrimental effect of add-on Tregs was noted on the circulating CD8+ T effector cells. The distribution of CAR T cells in multiple organs remained unaffected by the addition of the UCB Tregs. Specifically, no difference in the overall tumor burden was detected between the UCB Treg + CAR T vs. CAR T alone recipients. No tumor was detected in the liver or bone marrow in CAR T cells + UCB Tregs recipients, with a notable corresponding decrease in multiple circulating inflammatory cytokines when compared to CART alone recipients. Here we show the proof of concept for adjunct therapy with UCB Tregs to mitigate the hyper-inflammatory state induced by CAR T cells without any interference in their on-target anti-tumor activity. Administration of UCB Tregs after CAR T cells allows sufficient time for their synapse formation with tumor cells and exerts cytotoxicity, such that the UCB Tregs are diverted to interact with the antigen-presenting cells at the site of inflammation. Such a differential distribution of cells would allow for a two-pronged strategy of a UCB Treg "cooling blanket" effect and lay the groundwork for clinical study.

A population level analysis of second hematological malignancies in chronic lymphocytic leukemia/small lymphocytic lymphoma survivors in the era of targeted therapies.

With improvement in survival after chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) diagnosis, the real-world burden of second hematological malignancies (SHM) has not been comprehensively assessed in recent era. We analyzed risk, incidence, and outcomes of SHM in CLL patients between 2000 and 2019 using SEER database. CLL patients had greater risk for hematological malignancies than general population [SIR, standardized incidence ratio (95% CI):2.58 (2.46-2.70); p < 0.05]. The risk for subsequent lymphoma increased by 1.75 folds in 2015-2019 compared to 2000-2004. The duration, after CLL diagnosis, of maximum risk for SHM decreased as 60-119 months for time-period 2000-2004, 6-11 months for 2005-2009 to 2-5 months for 2010-2014 and 2015-2019. Incidence of SHM was 2.5% in CLL survivors (1736/70,346) with lymphoid SHM being more common than myeloid SHM, and DLBCL being the most common pathology (n = 610, 35% of all SHM). Male sex, age ≤65 years at CLL diagnosis, and chemotherapy treatment were associated with higher risk for SHM. The median gap between CLL and SHM diagnoses was 46 months. The median survival for de-novo-AML, t-MN, CML, and aggressive NHL was 63, 86, 95, and 96 months respectively. Although SHM remains rare, there is increased risk in recent era, likely due to improved survival in CLL patients, necessitating active surveillance strategies.

T-Cell Engagers in Solid Cancers-Current Landscape and Future Directions.

Monoclonal antibody treatment initially heralded an era of molecularly targeted therapy in oncology and is now widely applied in modulating anti-cancer immunity by targeting programmed cell receptors (PD-1, PD-L1), cytotoxic T-lymphocyte-associated protein 4 (CTLA-4) and, more recently, lymphocyte-activation gene 3 (LAG3). Chimeric antigen receptor T-cell therapy (CAR-T) recently proved to be a valid approach to inducing anti-cancer immunity by directly modifying the host's immune cells. However, such cell-based therapy requires extensive resources such as leukapheresis, ex vivo modification and expansion of cytotoxic T-cells and current Good Manufacturing Practice (cGMP) laboratories and presents significant logistical challenges. Bi-/trispecific antibody technology is a novel pharmaceutical approach to facilitate the engagement of effector immune cells to potentially multiple cancer epitopes, e.g., the recently approved blinatumomab. This opens the opportunity to develop 'off-the-shelf' anti-cancer agents that achieve similar and/or complementary anti-cancer effects as those of modified immune cell therapy. The majority of bi-/trispecific antibodies target the tumor-associated antigens (TAA) located on the extracellular surface of cancer cells. The extracellular antigens represent just a small percentage of known TAAs and are often associated with higher toxicities because some of them are expressed on normal cells (off-target toxicity). In contrast, the targeting of intracellular TAAs such as mutant RAS and TP53 may lead to fewer off-target toxicities while still achieving the desired antitumor efficacy (on-target toxicity). Here, we provide a comprehensive review on the emerging field of bi-/tri-specific T-cell engagers and potential therapeutic opportunities.

Lenalidomide maintenance following high-dose therapy and autologous haematopoietic stem cell transplantation in chemo-resistant or high-risk non-Hodgkin lymphoma: A phase I/II study.

Improved maintenance treatments are needed for patients with relapsed/refractory aggressive lymphomas after autologous haematopoietic stem cell transplantation (ASCT). Several studies with lenalidomide have been found to have activity in the treatment of relapsed/refractory aggressive lymphomas. In the present phase I/II, single-arm, open-label study, 59 patients with high-risk relapsed non-Hodgkin lymphoma received pretransplant BEAM chemotherapy and ASCT followed by 12 months of maintenance lenalidomide once daily on Days 1-21 (28-day cycles) beginning at post-transplantation Day 100. The most common histologies were mantle cell lymphoma (56%) and diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (24%). The maximum tolerated dose in the dose-finding part of the study was 15 mg, but cytopenias led to the subsequent adoption of a 10 mg dose in the final study. Sixteen patients (27%) completed 12 cycles of lenalidomide maintenance. The most common reason for discontinuation was adverse events (31%). These were primarily haematologic, and 56% of patients experienced Grade 3-4 events. Two-year PFS rates (95% CIs) were 70% (56%-80%), 45% (19%-68%) and 81% (66%-90%); 2-year OS rates (95% CIs) were 91% (80%-96%), 93% (61%-99%) and 90% (76%-96%) in all patients, patients completing and patients not completing 12-month maintenance respectively. These results do not support the use of lenalidomide maintenance in this setting.

Exposure-response analysis of Camidanlumab tesirine in patients with relapsed or refractory classical Hodgkin lymphoma and non-Hodgkin lymphoma.

PURPOSE: To investigate camidanlumab tesirine (Cami) exposure-response (E-R) relationships, using an integrated population pharmacokinetic model, for patients with classical Hodgkin lymphoma (cHL) and non-Hodgkin lymphoma enrolled in an open-label, phase 1 study (NCT02432235). METHODS: Exploratory analyses investigated relationships between exposure measures (Cmaxss, Cminss, and Cavgss) and the occurrence of binary variables (overall response rate [ORR] and selected adverse events [AEs]) and nonbinary variables (overall survival [OS]). RESULTS: Exploratory analyses showed a significant, positive relationship between exposure and ORR/OS. The final model showed this effect was non-significant due to the covariate effects. Cami exposures were higher in patients with selected grade ≥ 2 AEs at cycle 6 (the anticipated steady-state exposure level), confirmed in the final E-R models. CONCLUSIONS: Based on univariate results, Cmaxss was used as the exposure measure in all models, except for the autoimmune AE full E-R model in which Cavgss was used. The positive relationship between exposure and ORR/OS (higher exposure significantly associated with higher probabilities of ORR/OS) was not statistically significant in the final models. The final safety E-R models demonstrated a significant positive association between Cami exposure and selected grade ≥ 2 AEs, with higher exposures associated with higher probabilities of experiencing the grade ≥ 2 AEs at cycle 6. The results identify preliminary predictors of efficacy and safety and provide a basis for a dosing rationale and benefit-risk profile of Cami in patients with relapsed/refractory cHL.

Population pharmacokinetics analysis of camidanlumab tesirine in patients with relapsed or refractory Hodgkin lymphoma and non-Hodgkin lymphoma.

PURPOSE: The objective of this analysis was to develop a population pharmacokinetic (PPK) model to characterize camidanlumab tesirine (Cami) pharmacokinetics based on the phase 1 study in relapsed/refractory lymphoma (NCT02432235). METHODS: An initial PPK model was developed based on a two-compartment model with parallel linear and nonlinear elimination pathways. Pharmacokinetic parameters were evaluated for correlation with potential demographic covariates; significant covariates were retained in the final model. RESULTS: In the final PPK model, baseline weight effects were included on clearance (CL), intercompartmental clearance (Q), and the volumes of distribution in the central (V1) and peripheral (V2) compartments. The baseline soluble CD25 (sCD25) effect was included on CL and maximum velocity of saturable clearance (Vmax); sex effect was included on CL and V1; and ethnicity effect was included on deconjugation clearance (CLdec). For a typical patient, CL and CLdec were 0.516 and 0.21 L/day, respectively (tAb elimination half-life: 18.72 days); V1 and V2 were 4.41 and 2.67 L, respectively; Vmax was 0.49 mg/day; the Michaelis-Menten constant (Km) was 0.409 µg/mL; and the first-order rate for decrease of Vmax (KDES) was 0.0197/day. Cami exposure was higher for patients with low baseline sCD25, higher body weight, and females. CONCLUSIONS: The final model described the observed data well, estimates of PK parameters were obtained, and covariates with significant effects on Cami exposure were identified. Altogether, this final PPK model provides a robust basis for analysis of Cami exposure-response relationships and further supports identification of the optimal Cami dosing schedule for patients with relapsed/refractory lymphoma.
