ABSTRACT
This retrospective observational study (NEUF) included adult patients with B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (B-cell ALL) who had received blinatumomab for the treatment of minimal residual disease-positive (MRD+) or relapsed/refractory (R/R) B-cell ALL via an expanded access program (EAP). Patients were eligible if blinatumomab was initiated via the EAP between January 2014 and June 2017. Patients were followed from blinatumomab initiation until death, entry into a clinical trial, the end of follow-up, or the end of the study period (December 31, 2017), whichever occurred first. Of the 249 adult patients included, 109 were MRD+ (83 Philadelphia chromosome-negative [Ph-] and 26 Philadelphia chromosome-positive [Ph+]) and 140 had a diagnosis of R/R B-cell ALL (106 Ph- and 34 Ph+). In the MRD+ group, within the first cycle of blinatumomab treatment, 93% (n = 49/53) of Ph- and 64% (n = 7/11) of Ph+ patients with evaluable MRD achieved an MRD response (MRD <0.01%). Median overall survival (OS) was not reached over a median follow-up time of 18.5 months (Ph-, 18.8 [range: 5.1-34.8] months; Ph+, 16.5 [range: 1.8-31.6] months). In the R/R group, within two cycles of blinatumomab, 51% of Ph- and 41% of Ph+ patients achieved complete hematologic remission (CR/CRh/CRi), and 83% of Ph- and 67% of Ph+ MRD-evaluable patients in CR/CRh/CRi achieved an MRD response. Median (95% confidence interval) OS was 12.2 (7.3-24.2) months in the R/R Ph- subgroup and 16.3 (5.3-not estimated) months in the R/R Ph+ subgroup. This large, real-world data set of adults with B-cell ALL treated with blinatumomab confirms efficacy outcomes from published studies.

We report the data on 15 women who presented with Ph-negative acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) between Jan 2009 until Dec 2016 and who were treated on the prospective multicenter RALL-2009 clinical trial. A comparison of their outcome was made with 129 non-pregnant females who entered the study and were treated by the same schedule. 10-years OS for pregnant and non-pregnant women was 58.6 % (29.6 %-85.0 %) and 43.3 % (32.1 %-58.8 %), DFS was 46 % (15.2 %-78.8 %) and 51 % (39.7 %-64.6 %); probability of relapse was 49 % (16.6 %-83.3 %) and 40.3 % (27.3 %-53.4 %), respectively. Twelve born during the study children are well and alive with a median age 5 years 2 months (2 years - 9 years). Though small, our study has shown some specific features of ALL diagnosed during pregnancy (more T-cell ALL, higher initial WBC, later responses) and has shown that the long-term outcome of women with ALL treated while pregnant is equivalent to female control patients treated on the same protocol.

The acid-catalyzed condensation between 2-aminosubstituted [1,2,4]triazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidines and their analogues with various saturation of the pyrimidine ring and 1,3-diketones or 1,1,3,3-tetramethoxypropane was evaluated as a new approach for the synthesis of diversely substituted polycyclic derivatives of triazolopyrimidine. The reaction of 4,5,6,7-tetrahydro- or aromatic aminotriazolopyrimidines results in selective formation of the corresponding [1,2,4]triazolo[1,5-a:4,3-a']dipyrimidin-5-ium salts, and the condensation of substrates containing the 4,7-dihydro-[1,2,4]triazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidine fragment is accompanied by a cascade rearrangement with unusual recyclization of the dihydropyrimidine ring to yield partially hydrogenated [1,2,4]triazolo[1,5-a:4,3-a']dipyrimidin-5-ium or pyrimido[1',2':1,5][1,2,4]triazolo[3,4-b]quinazolin-5-ium salts. The proposed methodology exhibits a wide scope, providing rapid access to polycondensed derivatives of the [1,2,4]triazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidine scaffold. DFT calculations of the Gibbs free energies of possible isomers were performed to rationalize the experimentally observed reactivity and selectivity.
