RESUMEN
Multiple studies have reported a significant treatment-free remission (TFR) rate of 50%-60% in patients with chronic myeloid leukaemia (CML) who discontinue tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) therapy. However, the remaining half of these patients still require re-initiation of TKI therapy for leukaemia control. It remains unclear if TKI drugs should be switched for re-therapy in patients who failed the first TFR (TFR1) attempt. Our study attempted to determine whether dasatinib therapy after TFR1 failure post-imatinib discontinuation could improve the likelihood of TFR2. Of 59 patients who lost molecular response after imatinib discontinuation for TFR1, 55 patients (93.2%) were treated with dasatinib, of whom 49 (89.1%) regained MR4.5 or deeper response, with a median time of 1.85 months to achieve MR4.5. Dasatinib was discontinued in 35 patients for TFR2 attempt, of whom 26 patients (74.28%) lost MMR and 6 (17.14%) MR4. Risk factor analysis for the TFR2 after dasatinib discontinuation suggested three significant factors: (1) doubling time of BCR::ABL1 transcript following TFR1 attempt, (2) rapid regaining of molecular response following dasatinib therapy and (3) undetectable BCR::ABL1 transcript prior to TFR2 attempt. The present study showed that dasatinib does not increase the TFR2 rate in general, but a selected group of patients could benefit from this approach.

The doubling time (DT) of the BCR-ABL1 quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) transcript level reflects the re-growing fraction of leukaemic cells after discontinuation of tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI). The present study analyzed monthly DT within six months after imatinib discontinuation in 131 patients. Monthly DT was calculated as x = ln(2)/K, where x is the DT and K is the fold BCR-ABL1 change from the previous value divided by the number of days between each measurement. The optimal DT value was determined as 12·75 days at two months using a recursive partitioning method. The patients were stratified into three groups: the high-risk group (DT<12·75 days but >0, with rapidly proliferating chronic myeloid leukaemia (CML) cells; n = 26) showed the lowest molecular relapse-free survival (mRFS) of 7·7% at 12 months, compared to 53·6% in the intermediate-risk group (DT≥12·75 days, with slowly proliferating CML cells; n = 16) or 90·0% in the low-risk group (DT≤0, i.e., without proliferating CML cells; n = 71; P < 0·001). Monthly assessment of DT helps identify high-risk patients for treatment-free remission failure with an imminent risk of molecular recurrence, and to define low-risk patients who can be spared the frequent monitoring of monthly molecular tests.

INTRODUCTION: Despite the common use of cyclosporine (CsA) for acute graft-versus-host disease (aGVHD) prophylaxis following allogeneic stem cell transplant, the optimal CsA trough target remains unknown. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Here, we report on outcomes of adult patients following myeloablative conditioning to identify an optimal CsA trough target and characterize the most relevant timeframe post-transplant for CsA trough targeting to minimize aGVHD. We retrospectively reviewed 399 consecutive patients who underwent first peripheral blood allogeneic stem cell transplant for hematological malignancies between January 2009 and December 2018. RESULTS: In the unadjusted and adjusted analyses, the incidence of grades 2-4 aGVHD was significantly higher among patients with an average CsA trough concentration <250 mcg/L compared to patients with an average CsA trough concentration ≥250 mcg/L during days 15-28 post-transplant (31.5% versus 18.8%, P = 0.037), with an odds ratio (OR) of 1.97 (95% confidence interval 1.04-3.71). In contrast, no correlations between CsA trough concentration and relapse, non-relapse mortality and overall survival was found. CONCLUSION: In conclusion, early post-transplant CsA trough concentrations are an important factor in the prophylaxis against aGVHD. Our findings suggest that CsA trough concentrations should be maximized between days 15-28 post-myeloablative transplant.

Although total duration of tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) therapy and of molecular response at 4 log reduction or deeper (MR4) correlates with treatment-free remission (TFR) success after TKI discontinuation, the optimal cut-off values of the duration remain unresolved. Thus, 131 patients were enrolled into the Canadian TKI discontinuation study. The molecular relapse-free survival (mRFS) was defined from imatinib discontinuation till molecular recurrence, that is, major molecular response (MMR) loss and/or MR4 loss. We evaluated mRFS at 12 months after imatinib discontinuation, analyzed it according to the imatinib treatment duration and MR4 duration, and calculated P value, positive (PPV) and negative predictive value (NPV) in the yearly cut-off period of time. The shortest cut-off was sought that met the joint criteria of a P value ≤ 0·05, PPV ≥ 60% and NPV ≥ 60%. We propose six years as the shortest imatinib duration cut-off with a P value 0·01, PPV 68% and NPV 62%: The patients treated with imatinib duration ≥ 6 years showed a superior mRFS rate (61·8%) compared to those with less treatment (36·0%). Also, 4·5 years MR4 duration as the shortest cut-off with a P value 0·003, PPV 63% and NPV 61%: those with MR4 duration ≥ 4·5 years showed a higher mRFS rate (64·2%) than those with a shorter MR4 duration (41·9%).

Novel therapies are needed for patients with relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma (MM). We conducted a multicenter, phase 1 study in advanced hematological malignancies to assess the safety, efficacy, and recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D) of oral selinexor, a selective inhibitor of the nuclear export protein XPO1. In the dose-escalation phase, 25 patients with heavily pretreated MM (22) or Waldenstrom macroglobulinemia (3) were administered selinexor (3-60 mg/m2) in 8 or 10 doses per 28-day cycle. In the dose-expansion phase, 59 patients with MM received selinexor at 45 or 60 mg/m2 with 20 mg dexamethasone, twice weekly in 28-day cycles, or selinexor (40 or 60 mg flat dose) without corticosteroids in 21-day cycles. The most common nonhematologic adverse events (AEs) were nausea (75%), fatigue (70%), anorexia (64%), vomiting (43%), weight loss (32%), and diarrhea (32%), which were primarily grade 1 or 2. The most common grade 3 or 4 AEs were hematologic, particularly thrombocytopenia (45%). Single-agent selinexor showed modest efficacy with an objective response rate (ORR) of 4% and clinical benefit rate of 21%. In contrast, the addition of dexamethasone increased the ORR with all responses of ≥partial response occurring in the 45 mg/m2 selinexor plus 20 mg dexamethasone twice weekly cohort (ORR = 50%). Furthermore, 46% of all patients showed a reduction in MM markers from baseline. Based on these findings, we conclude that selinexor in combination with dexamethasone is active in heavily pretreated MM and propose a RP2D of 45 mg/m2 (80 mg) plus 20 mg dexamethasone given twice weekly. This trial was registered at clinicaltrials.gov as #NCT01607892.

Selinexor is a novel, first-in-class, selective inhibitor of nuclear export compound, which blocks exportin 1 (XPO1) function, leads to nuclear accumulation of tumor suppressor proteins, and induces cancer cell death. A phase 1 dose-escalation study was initiated to examine the safety and efficacy of selinexor in patients with advanced hematological malignancies. Ninety-five patients with relapsed or refractory acute myeloid leukemia (AML) were enrolled between January 2013 and June 2014 to receive 4, 8, or 10 doses of selinexor in a 21- or 28-day cycle. The most frequently reported adverse events (AEs) in patients with AML were grade 1 or 2 constitutional and gastrointestinal toxicities, which were generally manageable with supportive care. The only nonhematological grade 3/4 AE, occurring in >5% of the patient population, was fatigue (14%). There were no reported dose-limiting toxicities or evidence of cumulative toxicity. The recommended phase 2 dose was established at 60 mg (â¼35 mg/m2) given twice weekly in a 4-week cycle based on the totality of safety and efficacy data. Overall, 14% of the 81 evaluable patients achieved an objective response (OR) and 31% percent showed ≥50% decrease in bone marrow blasts from baseline. Patients achieving an OR had a significant improvement in median progression-free survival (PFS) (5.1 vs 1.3 months; P = .008; hazard ratio [HR], 3.1) and overall survival (9.7 vs 2.7 months; P = .01; HR, 3.1) compared with nonresponders. These findings suggest that selinexor is safe as a monotherapy in patients with relapsed or refractory AML and have informed subsequent phase 2 clinical development. This trial was registered at www.clinicaltrials.gov as #NCT01607892.

Patients with relapsed or refractory (R/R) non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) have a poor prognosis and limited treatment options. We evaluated selinexor, an orally bioavailable, first-in-class inhibitor of the nuclear export protein XPO1, in this phase 1 trial to assess safety and determine a recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D). Seventy-nine patients with various NHL histologies, including diffuse large B-cell lymphoma, Richter's transformation, mantle cell lymphoma, follicular lymphoma, and chronic lymphocytic leukemia, were enrolled. In the dose-escalation phase, patients received 3 to 80 mg/m2 of selinexor in 3- or 4-week cycles and were assessed for toxicities, pharmacokinetics, and antitumor activity. In the dose-expansion phase, patients were treated with selinexor at 35 or 60 mg/m2 The most common grade 3 to 4 drug-related adverse events were thrombocytopenia (47%), neutropenia (32%), anemia (27%), leukopenia (16%), fatigue (11%), and hyponatremia (10%). Tumor biopsies showed decreases in cell-signaling pathways (Bcl-2, Bcl-6, c-Myc), reduced proliferation (Ki67), nuclear localization of XPO1 cargos (p53, PTEN), and increased apoptosis after treatment. Twenty-two (31%) of the 70 evaluable patients had an objective responses, including 4 complete responses and 18 partial responses, which were observed across a spectrum of NHL subtypes. A dose of 35 mg/m2 (60 mg) was identified as the RP2D. These findings suggest that inhibition of XPO1 with oral selinexor at 35 mg/m2 is a safe therapy with encouraging and durable anticancer activity in patients with R/R NHL. The trial was registered at www.clinicaltrials.gov as #NCT01607892.

Subsequent malignancies (SMs) present a significant burden of morbidity and are a common cause of late mortality in survivors of allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplant (allo-HCT). Previous studies have described total body irradiation (TBI) as a risk factor for the development of SMs in allo-HCT survivors. However, most studies of the association between TBI and SM have examined high-dose TBI regimens (typically ≥600 cGy), and thus little is known about the association between low-dose TBI regimens and risk of SMs. Our goal, therefore, was to compare the cumulative incidence of SMs in patients of Alberta, Canada, who received busulfan/fludarabine alone vs busulfan/fludarabine plus 400 cGy TBI. Of the 674 included patients, 49 developed a total of 56 malignancies at a median of 5.9 years' posttransplant. The cumulative incidence of SMs at 15 years' post-HCT in the entire cohort was 11.5% (95% confidence interval [CI], 8.5-15.6): 13.4% (95% CI, 9.1-19.3) in the no-TBI group and 10.8% (95% CI, 6.6-17.4) in the TBI group. In the multivariable model, TBI was not associated with SMs, whereas there was an association with number of pre-HCT cycles of chemotherapy. The standardized incidence ratio for the entire cohort, compared with the age-, sex-, and calendar year-matched general population, was 1.75. allo-HCT conditioning that includes low-dose TBI does not seem to increase risk of SMs compared with chemotherapy-alone conditioning.

In acute myeloid leukemia (AML) internal tandem duplications of the FLT3 gene (FLT3-ITD) are associated with poor prognosis. Retrospectively, we investigated the prognostic and predictive impact of FLT3-ITD insertion site (IS) in 452 patients randomized within the RATIFY trial, which evaluated midostaurin additionally to intensive chemotherapy. Next-generation sequencing identified 908 ITDs, with 643 IS in the juxtamembrane domain (JMD) and 265 IS in the tyrosine kinase domain-1 (TKD1). According to IS, patients were categorized as JMDsole (n = 251, 55%), JMD and TKD1 (JMD/TKD1; n = 117, 26%), and TKD1sole (n = 84, 19%). While clinical variables did not differ among the 3 groups, NPM1 mutation was correlated with JMDsole (P = 0.028). Overall survival (OS) differed significantly, with estimated 4-year OS probabilities of 0.44, 0.50, and 0.30 for JMDsole, JMD/TKD1, and TKD1sole, respectively (P = 0.032). Multivariate (cause-specific) Cox models for OS and cumulative incidence of relapse using allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) in first complete remission as a time-dependent variable identified TKD1sole as unfavorable and HCT as favorable factors. In addition, Midostaurin exerted a significant benefit only for JMDsole. Our results confirm the distinct molecular heterogeneity of FLT3-ITD and the negative prognostic impact of TKD1 IS in AML that was not overcome by midostaurin.

While second generation tyrosine kinase inhibitors (2GTKIs) are highly effective therapies for chronic myeloid leukemia (CML), a significant minority of patients who initiate a 2GTKI will require a switch to an alternative TKI. The long-term outcomes of those who require a change in therapy after front-line 2GTKI therapy are largely undescribed. Here we describe the clinical outcomes associated with switch to an alternative TKI after first-line therapy with a 2GTKI. Of 232 patients who initiated a 2GTKI during the study period, 76 (33 %) switched to an alternative TKI. Reasons for switching included intolerance (79 %) and resistance (21 %). Among the 60 patients who switched due to intolerance, 53 (88 %) were able to achieve or maintain a major molecular response (MMR) with 5-year progression-free survival (PFS) 90.5 % (95 % CI 90.4-90.6 %). Amongst the 16 patients who switched due to resistance, 8 patients (50 %) were able to achieve MMR with 5-year PFS 80.4 % (95 % CI 80.2-80.6 %). Most patients who switched due to intolerance remained on their second-line TKI. Approximately 25 % of patients who initiate first-line 2GTKI in a real world setting will ultimately switch to an alternate TKI due to intolerance. Patients who switch for intolerance continue to enjoy excellent clinical outcomes.

It remains unknown why rabbit antithymocyte globulin (ATG; Thymoglobulin) has not affected relapse after hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) in randomized studies. We hypothesized that high pre-HCT ATG area under the curve (AUC) would be associated with a low incidence of relapse, whereas high post-HCT AUC would be associated with a high incidence of relapse. We measured serum levels of ATG capable of binding to mononuclear cells (MNCs), lymphocytes, T cells, CD4 T cells, or CD33 cells. We estimated pre- and post-HCT AUCs in 152 adult recipients of myeloablative conditioning and blood stem cells. High pre-HCT AUCs of MNC- and CD33 cell-binding ATG were associated with a low incidence of relapse and high relapse-free survival (RFS). There was a trend toward an association of high post-HCT AUC of lymphocyte-binding ATG with a high incidence of relapse and low RFS. High pre-HCT AUCs were also associated with faster engraftment and had no impact on graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) or fatal infections. High post-HCT AUCs were associated with a low risk of GVHD, seemed associated with an increased risk of fatal infections, and had no impact on engraftment. In conclusion, pre-HCT AUC seems to have a positive, whereas post-HCT AUC seems to have a negative, impact on relapse.

We have reported a lower incidence of acute graft-versus-host disease (aGVHD) with a novel conditioning regimen using low-dose rabbit antithymocyte globulin (ATG; Thymoglobulin [TG]) with fludarabine and intravenous busulfan (FluBuTG). To assess further this single-center experience, we performed a retrospective matched-pair analysis comparing outcomes of adult patients transplanted using the FluBuTG conditioning regimen with matched controls from patients reported to the CIBMTR receiving a first allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HCT) after standard oral busulfan and cyclophosphamide (BuCy). One hundred twenty cases and 215 matched controls were available for comparison. Patients receiving FluBuTG had significantly less treatment related mortality (TRM; 12% versus 34%, P < .001) and grades II-IV aGVHD (15% versus 34%, P < .001) compared to BuCy patients. The risk of relapse was higher in the FluBuTG patients (42% versus 20%, P < .001). The risks of chronic GVHD (cGVHD) and disease free survival (DFS) were similar in the cases and controls. These results suggest that the novel regimen FluBuTG decreases the risk of aGVHD and TRM after HLA-identical sibling HSCT, but is associated with an increased risk of relapse, resulting in similar DFS. Whether these conditioning regimens may be more suitable for specific patient populations based on relapse risk requires testing in prospective randomized trials.

A single center, prospective clinical trial was conducted evaluating 2 cycles of induction high-dose chemotherapy for adults younger than 65 years of age with aggressive non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) and 2 to 3 Age-Adjusted International Prognostic Index risk factors. Patients received one cycle of standard dose cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine, and prednisone (CHOP) followed by one cycle of dose-intensive cyclophosphamide 5.25 g/m(2), etoposide 1.05 g/m(2), cisplatin 105 mg/m(2) (DICEP), then underwent autologous blood stem cell collection, followed by one cycle of high-dose carmustine (BCNU) 300 mg/m(2), etoposide 800 mg/m(2), Ara-C 1600 mg/m(2), melphalan 140 mg/m(2) (BEAM), and autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT) and radiotherapy to prior bulk. From June 1998 to August 2004, 55 patients aged 20 to 63 years (median 44 years) were accrued, 51 (92%) of whom had diffuse large B-cell NHL. Poor prognostic factors included stage 4 (n = 46), elevated lactate dehydrogenase (LDH; n = 47), Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status 2 to 4 (n = 43), bulky mass more than 10 cm (n = 34), and marrow involvement (n = 16). Only one patient experienced nonrelapse mortality. With a median follow-up of 49 months, 4-year event-free survival (EFS) and overall survival (OS) rates for all 55 patients are 72% (95% confidence interval [CI] = 60%-84%) and 79% (95% CI = 69%-90%), respectively. In conclusion, CHOP-DICEP-BEAM is feasible and gave encouraging EFS and OS for patients with poor-prognosis aggressive NHL.
