RESUMO

Febrile neutropenia (FN) is the most common reason for hospital readmission following chemotherapy for AML and is a major driver of healthcare resource utilization. While FN risk models exist, these have largely been developed and validated in solid tumors. We therefore examined whether baseline characteristics could predict which AML patients with FN have a lower risk of progression to severe illness. We identified adults with high-grade myeloid neoplasm (³10% blasts in blood/marrow) who received intensive chemotherapy and were admitted for FN from 2016-2023. We collected baseline clinical and disease variables. Outcomes were: infections identified, hospital length of stay (LOS), intensive care unit (ICU) admission, and survival. A "lower-risk [LR]" outcome was defined as LOS <72hrs without ICU admission or inpatient death. Univariate and multivariable (MV) logistic regression models were used to assess covariate associations with outcomes. We identified 397 FN admissions in 248 patients (median age 61 [range: 29-77] years). The median hospital LOS was 6 (range: 1-56) days; 10% required ICU admission and 3.5% died inpatient. Only 15% of admissions were LR. Infection was identified in 59% of admissions. Physiologic parameters including heart rate, blood pressure and fever height were the best predictors of LR admission and infection. We developed MV models to predict LR admission and infection with AUCs of 0.82 and AUC 0.72, respectively. Established FN and critical illness models were not predictive of outcomes in AML, where we could not identify a lower risk group; thus an AML-specific FN risk model requires further development and validation.

RESUMO

There has been ongoing debate on the association between obesity and outcomes in acute myeloid leukemia (AML). Currently few studies have stratified outcomes by class I obesity, class II obesity, and class III obesity, and a more nuanced understanding is becoming increasingly important with the rising prevalence of obesity. We examined the association between body mass index (BMI) and outcomes in previously untreated AML in younger patients (age ≤60) enrolled in SWOG S1203 (n = 729). Class III obesity was associated with an increased rate of early death (p = 0.004) and worse overall survival (OS) in multivariate analysis (hazard ratio (HR) 2.48, 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.62-3.80 versus normal weight). Class III obesity was also associated with worse OS after allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplant (HR 2.37, 95% CI 1.24-4.54 versus normal weight). These findings highlight the unique risk of class III obesity in AML, and the importance of further investigation to better characterize this patient population.

RESUMO

Outcomes for adults with relapsed/refractory (R/R) high-grade myeloid neoplasms remain poor, with allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) the sole therapy likely to result in cure. We conducted the present study to determine the feasibility of early HCT-within 60 days of beginning reinduction chemotherapy-to see whether getting patients to HCT in an expeditious manner would expand the number of patients being offered this curative option. In this proof-of-principle feasibility study, we included adults age 18 to 75 years with R/R myeloid malignancies with ≥10% blood/marrow blasts at diagnosis who were eligible for a reduced-intensity HCT. Subjects received reinduction chemotherapy with cladribine, cytarabine, mitoxantrone, and filgrastim (CLAG-M) and proceeded to HCT with reduced-intensity conditioning (fludarabine/ melphalan). We enrolled 30 subjects, all of whom received CLAG-M reinduction, although only 9 underwent HCT within 60 days (<15, the predetermined threshold for feasibility "success"), with a median time to HCT of 48 days (range, 42 to 60 days). Eleven additional subjects received HCT beyond the target 60 days (off-study), with a median time to transplantation of 83 days (range, 53 to 367 days). Barriers to early HCT included infection, physician preference, lack of an HLA-matched donor, logistical delays, and disease progression, all of which may limit the real-world uptake of such early-to-transplantation protocols.

RESUMO

Importance: Options for adults with relapsed or refractory B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia or lymphoma (B-ALL) are limited, and new approaches are needed. Inotuzumab ozogamicin (InO) has been combined with low-intensity chemotherapy, with modest improvements over historical controls, and dose-adjusted etoposide, prednisone, vincristine, cyclophosphamide, and doxorubicin (DA-EPOCH) treatment is safe and active for newly diagnosed ALL. Objective: To assess the safety and clinical activity of DA-EPOCH and InO in adults with relapsed or refractory B-ALL. Design, Setting, and Participants: This single-center, single-arm, nonrandomized, phase 1 dose-escalation trial included adults with relapsed or refractory CD22+ B-ALL and was conducted between September 2019 and November 2022. At least 5% blood or marrow blasts or measurable extramedullary disease (EMD) was required for enrollment. Interventions: DA-EPOCH was given on days 1 to 5, while InO was given on day 8 and day 15 of a 28-day cycle. Three dose levels were studied using a bayesian optimal interval design. Main Outcomes and Measures: The primary outcome was the maximum tolerated dose of InO when combined with DA-EPOCH, defined as the highest dose level that produced a rate of dose-limiting toxicity below 33%. Secondary objectives included response rates, survival estimates, and descriptions of toxic effects. Results: A total of 24 participants were screened and enrolled (median age, 46 [range, 28-76] years; 15 [62%] male). The median number of lines of prior therapy was 3 (range, 1-12). Three of 11 participants (27%) treated at the highest dose level (InO, 0.6 mg/m2, on day 8 and day 15) experienced dose-limiting toxicity, making this the maximum tolerated dose. No deaths occurred during the study, and only 1 patient (4%; 95% CI, 0.1%-21%) developed sinusoidal obstructive syndrome after poststudy allograft. The morphologic complete response rate was 84% (95% CI, 60%-97%), 88% (95% CI, 62%-98%) of which was measurable residual disease negative by flow cytometry. Five of 6 participants with EMD experienced treatment response. The overall response rate was 83% (95% CI, 63%-95%). Median overall survival, duration of response, and event-free survival were 17.0 (95% CI, 8.4-not reached), 15.0 (95% CI, 6.7-not reached), and 9.6 (95% CI, 4.5-not reached) months, respectively. Conclusions: In this study, adding InO to DA-EPOCH in adults with relapsed or refractory B-ALL was feasible, with high response rates and sinusoidal obstructive syndrome occurring rarely in a heavily pretreated population. Many patients were able to proceed to poststudy consolidative allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplant and/or chimeric antigen receptor T-cell therapy. Further investigation of this combination is warranted. Trial Registration: ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT03991884.

RESUMO

PURPOSE: Management of CNS involvement in leukemia may include craniospinal irradiation (CSI), though data on CSI efficacy are limited. METHODS: We retrospectively reviewed leukemia patients who underwent CSI at our institution between 2009 and 2021 for CNS involvement. CNS local recurrence (CNS-LR), any recurrence, progression-free survival (PFS), CNS PFS, and overall survival (OS) were estimated. RESULTS: Of thirty-nine eligible patients treated with CSI, most were male (59%) and treated as young adults (median 31 years). The median dose was 18 Gy to the brain and 12 Gy to the spine. Twenty-five (64%) patients received CSI immediately prior to allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplant, of which 21 (84%) underwent total body irradiation conditioning (median 12 Gy). Among 15 patients with CSF-positive disease immediately prior to CSI, all 14 assessed patients had pathologic clearance of blasts (CNS-response rate 100%) at a median of 23 days from CSI start. With a median follow-up of 48 months among survivors, 2-year PFS and OS were 32% (95% CI 18-48%) and 43% (95% CI 27-58%), respectively. Only 5 CNS relapses were noted (2-year CNS-LR 14% (95% CI 5-28%)), which occurred either concurrently or after a systemic relapse. Only systemic relapse after CSI was associated with higher risk of CNS-LR on univariate analysis. No grade 3 or higher acute toxicity was seen during CSI. CONCLUSION: CSI is a well-tolerated and effective treatment option for patients with CNS leukemia. Control of systemic disease after CSI may be important for CNS local control. CNS recurrence may reflect reseeding from the systemic space.

RESUMO

High-dose cytarabine is associated with gastrointestinal and cerebellar toxicity, precluding its use for older or unfit patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML). Aspacytarabine, an inactive prodrug of cytarabine, was evaluated as monotherapy in a phase 2b study of patients unfit for intensive chemotherapy (NCT03435848). Sixty-five patients with AML were treated with aspacytarabine 4.5 g/m2 per day (equimolar to 3 g/m2 per day cytarabine) for 6 doses per treatment. The median age was 75 years; 60.6% of patients had de novo AML, 28.8% had AML secondary to myelodysplastic syndrome, and 10.6% had therapy-related AML. Overall, 36.9% achieved complete remission (CR) with full count recovery. CR rates in patients with secondary AML, patients with prior treatment with hypomethylating agents, and patients with TP53 mutation were 26.7%, 25%, and 36%, respectively. Median overall survival was 9 months (range, 6-15.9) and was not reached among responders. Hematologic recovery was observed in all responding patients by day 26 without prolonged cytopenias. Adverse events typically precluding the use of high-dose cytarabine in older or unfit patients were not observed. These data suggest that aspacytarabine may be an effective regimen with a reduction in the attendant toxicities associated with high-dose cytarabine, an important consideration when treating AML and other hematologic disorders that use high-dose cytarabine. This trial was registered at www.clinicaltrials.gov as #NCT03435848.

RESUMO

OBJECTIVES: We recently performed a single-arm phase II trial of DA-EPOCH in adults with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). We sought to compare these results to those with standard Hyper-CVAD. METHODS: We created a retrospective matched cohort of patients who received Hyper-CVAD (n = 69) at our center and otherwise met eligibility criteria for the DA-EPOCH trial (n = 53). RESULTS: Our outcomes support the use of Hyper-CVAD over DA-EPOCH in Ph- disease for both overall survival (OS; HR 0.18, p = .004) and event-free survival (EFS; HR 0.51, p = .06). In contrast, outcomes were similar in Ph+ disease (OS HR 0.97, p = .96; EFS HR 0.65, p = .21). Rates of morphologic remission and measurable residual-disease negativity were similar between the regimens. Hyper-CVAD was associated with significantly more febrile neutropenia (OR 1.9, p = .03) and a greater incidence of Grade 4 or 5 adverse events (20% vs. 6%). Average transfusions per cycle of both red blood cells (p < .001) and platelets (p < .001) were five-fold higher with Hyper-CVAD. CONCLUSIONS: Our findings support continued use of Hyper-CVAD for Ph- ALL but suggest that DA-EPOCH may be a reasonable alternative for Ph+ ALL. These data also highlight a potential role for DA-EPOCH in resource-limited settings or when more intense therapy is not feasible.

RESUMO

Secondary AML (sAML), defined by either history of antecedent hematologic disease (AHD) or prior genotoxic therapy (tAML), is classically regarded as having worse prognosis than de novo disease (dnAML). Clinicians may infer a new AML diagnosis is secondary based on a history of antecedent blood count (ABC) abnormalities in the absence of known prior AHD, but whether abnormal ABCs are associated with worse outcomes is unclear. Secondary-type mutations have recently been incorporated into the European LeukemiaNet (ELN) 2022 guidelines as adverse-risk features, raising the question of whether clinical descriptors of ontogeny (i.e., de novo or secondary) are prognostically significant when accounting for genetic risk by ELN 2022. In a large multicenter cohort of patients (n = 734), we found that abnormal ABCs are not independently prognostic after adjusting for genetic characteristics in dnAML patients. Furthermore, history of AHD and tAML do not confer increased risk of death compared to dnAML on multivariate analysis, suggesting the prognostic impact of ontogeny is accounted for by disease genetics as stratified by ELN 2022 risk and TP53 mutation status. These findings emphasize the importance that disease genetics should play in risk stratification and clinical trial eligibility in AML.

RESUMO

The multikinase inhibitor sorafenib improves event-free survival (EFS) when used with 7 + 3 in adults with newly-diagnosed acute myeloid leukemia (AML), irrespective of the FLT3-mutation status. Here, we evaluated adding sorafenib to cladribine, high-dose cytarabine, granulocyte colony-stimulating factor, and mitoxantrone (CLAG-M) in a phase 1/2 trial of 81 adults aged ≤60 years with newly diagnosed AML. Forty-six patients were treated in phase 1 with escalating doses of sorafenib and mitoxantrone. No maximum tolerated dose was reached, and a regimen including mitoxantrone 18 mg/m2 per day and sorafenib 400 mg twice daily was declared the recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D). Among 41 patients treated at RP2D, a measurable residual disease-negative complete remission (MRD- CR) rate of 83% was obtained. Four-week mortality was 2%. One-year overall survival (OS) and EFS were 80% and 76%, without differences in MRD- CR rates, OS, or EFS between patients with or without FLT3-mutated disease. Comparing outcomes using CLAG-M/sorafenib with those of a matched cohort of 76 patients treated with CLAG-M alone, multivariable-adjusted survival estimates were improved for 41 patients receiving CLAG-M/sorafenib at RP2D (OS: hazard ratio,0.24 [95% confidence interval, 0.07-0.82]; P = .023; EFS: hazard ratio, 0.16 [95% confidence interval, 0.05-0.53]; P = .003). Benefit was limited to patients with intermediate-risk disease (univariate analysis: P = .01 for OS; P = .02 for EFS). These data suggest that CLAG-M/sorafenib is safe and improves OS and EFS relative to CLAG-M alone, with benefits primarily in patients with intermediate-risk disease. The trial was registered at www.clinicaltrials.gov as #NCT02728050.

RESUMO

Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is a heterogeneous hematologic malignancy characterized by the clonal expansion of myeloid blasts in the peripheral blood, bone marrow, and/or other tissues. It is the most common form of acute leukemia among adults and accounts for the largest number of annual deaths from leukemias in the United States. Like AML, blastic plasmacytoid dendritic cell neoplasm (BPDCN) is a myeloid malignancy. It is a rare malignancy characterized by the aggressive proliferation of precursors of plasmacytoid dendritic cells that frequently involves the bone marrow, skin, central nervous system, and other organs and tissues. This discussion section focuses on the diagnosis and management of BPDCN as outlined in the NCCN Guidelines for AML.

RESUMO

Treatments for adults with newly-diagnosed acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) may be prohibitively toxic and/or resource-intense. To address this, we performed a phase II study of dose-adjusted etoposide, prednisone, vincristine, cyclophosphamide, and doxorubicin (DA-EPOCH). Imatinib or dasatinib was added for Ph + disease; rituximab was added when CD20+. Fifty-three patients were evaluable: 28 with Ph + disease, and 25 with Ph-. All patients had ≥1 high-risk clinical feature. Measurable residual disease-negativity by multiparameter flow cytometry within 4 cycles was achieved in 71% in patients with Ph + ALL and 64% in Ph - ALL. Median overall survival (OS) was 49 months, with a 2-year OS of 71%. Median relapse-free survival (RFS) in the 47 patients that attained morphologic remission was 24 months, with a 2-year RFS of 57%. Early mortality was 2%. In summary, DA-EPOCH yields deep and durable remissions in adults with ALL comparable to some resource-intense strategies but with a low rate of treatment-related death.

RESUMO

Patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) who have failed hypomethylating agents (HMA) have a poor prognosis. We examined whether high intensity induction chemotherapy could abrogate negative outcomes in 270 patients with AML or other high-grade myeloid neoplasms. Prior HMA therapy was significantly associated with a lower overall survival (OS) as compared to a reference group of patients with secondary disease without prior HMA therapy (median 7.2 vs 13.1 months). In patients with prior HMA therapy, high intensity induction was associated with a non-significant trend toward longer OS (median 8.2 vs 4.8 months) and decreased rates of treatment failure (39% vs 64%). These results redemonstrate poor outcomes in patients with prior HMA and suggest possible benefit of high intensity induction that should be evaluated in future studies.

RESUMO

Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) has an aggressive course and a historically dismal prognosis. For many patients, hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) represents the best option for cure, but access, utilization, and health inequities on a global scale remain poorly elucidated. We wanted to describe patterns of global HSCT use in AML for a better understanding of global access, practices, and unmet needs internationally. Estimates of AML incident cases in 2016 were obtained from the Global Burden of Disease 2019 study. HSCT activities were collected from 2009 to 2016 by the Worldwide Network for Blood and Marrow Transplantation through its member organizations. The primary endpoint was global and regional use (number of HSCT) and utilization of HSCT (number of HSCT/number of incident cases) for AML. Secondary outcomes included trends from 2009 to 2016 in donor type, stem cell source, and remission status at time of HSCT. Global AML incidence has steadily increased, from 102,000 (95% uncertainty interval: 90,200-108,000) in 2009 to 118,000 (104,000-126,000) in 2016 (16.2%). Over the same period, a 54.9% increase from 9659 to 14,965 HSCT/yr was observed globally, driven by an increase in allogeneic (64.9%) with a reduction in autologous (-34.9%) HSCT. Although the highest numbers of HSCT continue to be performed in high-resource regions, the largest increases were seen in resource-constrained regions (94.6% in Africa/East Mediterranean Region [AFR/EMR]; 34.7% in America-Nord Region [AMR-N]). HSCT utilization was skewed toward high-resource regions (in 2016: AMR-N 18.4%, Europe [EUR] 17.9%, South-East Asia/Western Pacific Region [SEAR/WPR] 11.7%, America-South Region [AMR-S] 4.5%, and AFR/EMR 2.8%). For patients <70 years of age, this difference in utilization was widened; AMR-N had the highest allogeneic utilization rate, increasing from 2009 to 2016 (30.6% to 39.9%) with continued low utilization observed in AFR/EMR (1.7% to 2.9%) and AMR-S (3.5% to 5.4%). Across all regions, total HSCT for AML in first complete remission (CR1) increased (from 44.1% to 59.0%). Patterns of donor stem cell source from related versus unrelated donors varied widely by geographic region. SEAR/WPR had a 130.2% increase in related donors from 2009 to 2016, and >95% HSCT donors in AFR/EMR were related; in comparison, AMR-N and EUR have a predilection for unrelated HSCT. Globally, the allogeneic HSCT stem cell source was predominantly peripheral blood (69.7% of total HSCT in 2009 increased to 78.6% in 2016). Autologous HSCT decreased in all regions from 2009 to 2016 except in SEAR/WPR (18.9%). HSCT remains a central curative treatment modality in AML. Allogeneic HSCT for AML is rising globally, but there are marked variations in regional utilization and practices, including types of graft source. Resource-constrained regions have the largest growth in HSCT use, but utilization rates remain low, with a predilection for familial-related donor sources and are typically offered in CR1. Further studies are necessary to elucidate the reasons, including economic factors, to understand and address these health inequalities and improve discrepancies in use of HSCT as a potentially curative treatment globally.

RESUMO

The sole curative therapy for myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) is allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT). Here this therapeutic modality is reviewed and critically evaluated in the context of the evidence. Specific criteria were used for searching the published literature and for grading the quality and strength of the evidence and the strength of the recommendations. A panel of MDS experts comprising transplantation and nontransplantation physicians developed consensus treatment recommendations. This review summarizes the standard MDS indications for HCT and addresses areas of controversy. Recent prospective trials have confirmed that allogeneic HCT confers survival benefits in patients with advanced or high-risk MDS compared with nontransplantation approaches, and the use of HCT is increasing in older patients with good performance status. However, patients with high-risk cytogenetic or molecular mutations remain at high risk for relapse. It is unknown whether administration of novel therapies before or after transplantation may decrease the risk of disease relapse in selected populations. Ongoing and future studies will investigate revised approaches to disease risk stratification, patient selection, and post-transplantation approaches to optimize allogeneic HCT outcomes for patients with MDS.
