Inotuzumab ozogamicin in adults with relapsed or refractory CD22-positive acute lymphoblastic leukemia: a phase 1/2 study

Blood Advances, 2016

; and 11 Cleveland Clinic, Cleveland, OH Key Points • Weekly InO 1.8 mg/m 2 per cycle is associated with manageable toxic-ities and encouraging activity in patients with relapsed/refractory ALL. • Achievement of MRD negativity and disease burden was not correlated ; InO may thus be effective regardless of baseline disease severity. This study evaluated the safety, antitumor activity, pharmacokinetics, and pharmacodynamics of inotuzumab ozogamicin (InO) for CD22-positive relapsed/refractory acute lymphoblastic leukemia. In phase 1, patients received InO 1.2 (n 5 3), 1.6 (n 5 12), or 1.8 (n 5 9) mg/m 2 per cycle on days 1, 8, and 15 over a 28-day cycle (#6 cycles). The recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D) was confirmed (expansion cohort; n 5 13); safety and activity of InO were assessed in patients receiving the RP2D in phase 2 (n 5 35) and in all treated patients (n 5 72). The RP2D was 1.8 mg/m 2 per cycle (0.8 mg/m 2 on day 1; 0.5 mg/m 2 on days 8 and 15), with reduction to 1.6 mg/m 2 per cycle after complete remission (CR) or CR with incomplete marrow recovery (CRi). Treatment-related toxicities were primarily cytopenias. Four patients experienced treatment-related venoocclusive disease/sinusoidal obstruction syndrome (VOD/SOS; 1 fatal). Two VOD/SOS events occurred during treatment without intervening transplant; of 24 patients proceeding to poststudy transplant, 2 experienced VOD/SOS after transplant. Forty-nine (68%) patients had CR/CRi, with 41 (84%) achieving minimal residual disease (MRD) negativity. Median progression-free survival was 3.9 (95% confidence interval, 2.9-5.4) months; median overall survival was 7.4 (5.7-9.2) months for all treated patients, with median 23.7 (range, 6.8-29.8) months of follow-up for all treated patients alive at data cutoff. Achievement of MRD negativity was associated with higher InO exposure. InO was well tolerated and demonstrated high single-agent activity and MRD-negativity rates. This trial was registered at www.clinicaltrials.gov as #NCT01363297.

Matching-Adjusted Indirect Comparison of Blinatumomab vs. Inotuzumab Ozogamicin for Adults with Relapsed/Refractory Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia

Advances in Therapy, 2019

Introduction: In the absence of head-to-head trials, this analysis aimed to provide a fair indirect comparison of the efficacy between blinatumomab and inotuzumab ozogamicin (InO), two treatments for adult patients with relapsed or refractory acute lymphoblastic leukemia (R/R ALL) who received no more than one prior salvage therapy, by adjusting for crosstrial differences. Methods: Patient-level data from the Phase 3 blinatumomab trial TOWER and published aggregated data from the Phase 3 InO trial INO-VATE-ALL were used to conduct matching-adjusted indirect comparisons. Patients with 2? prior salvage therapies from TOWER were excluded because such patients were not included in INO-VATE-ALL. To ensure balance in the remaining patients, baseline characteristics for the TOWER patients were weighted to match the average baseline characteristics in INO-VATE-ALL, including sex, age, race, performance status, bone marrow blast, previous salvage therapy, previous allogeneic transplantation, complete remission with complete hematologic recovery (CR) to most recent induction therapy, and duration of first remission. Overall survival (OS), including median and restricted mean survival time (RMST) at 12 and 20.7 months, and CR were estimated and compared. Results: A total of 310 patients in TOWER were included (blinatumomab, n = 203; standard of care chemotherapy, n = 107). After matching the listed baseline characteristics, the median OS was 9.3 months for blinatumomab and 7.7 months for InO (weighted log-rank test p = 0.4). The relative RMST at 12 months was 1.6 months longer for blinatumomab than for InO [95% CI (0.1, 3.2); p = 0.04]; at 20.7 months the RMST was not significantly different. The CR rates were similar [anchor-based difference =-2.8%, 95% CI (-17.5%, 11.9%); p = 0.71]. Conclusions: After adjusting for cross-trial differences, blinatumomab demonstrated a similar CR rate and potential OS benefit versus InO among adult patients with R/R ALL who received no more than one prior salvage Enhanced Digital Features To view enhanced digital features for this article go to https://doi.org/10.6084/ m9.figshare.7571138.

Inotuzumab ozogamicin as single agent in pediatric patients with relapsed and refractory acute lymphoblastic leukemia: results from a phase II trial

Leukemia

Inotuzumab Ozogamicin is a CD22-directed antibody conjugated to calicheamicin, approved in adults with relapsed or refractory (R/R) B cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (BCP-ALL). Patients aged 1–18 years, with R/R CD22 + BCP-ALL were treated at the RP2D of 1.8 mg/m2. Using a single-stage design, with an overall response rate (ORR) ≤ 30% defined as not promissing and ORR > 55% as expected, 25 patients needed to be recruited to achieve 80% power at 0.05 significance level. Thirty-two patients were enrolled, 28 were treated, 27 were evaluable for response. The estimated ORR was 81.5% (95%CI: 61.9–93.7%), and 81.8% (18/22) of the responding subjects were minimal residual disease (MRD) negative. The study met its primary endpoint. Median follow up of survivors was 16 months (IQR: 14.49–20.07). One year Event Free Survival was 36.7% (95% CI: 22.2–60.4%), and Overall Survival was 55.1% (95% CI: 39.1−77.7%). Eighteen patients received consolidation (with HSCT and/or CAR T-cells therapy)....

Inotuzumab Ozogamicin Monotherapy as an Outpatient Salvage Treatment in Relapsed Refractory B-Cell Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia: Compassionate Access

Indian Journal of Medical and Paediatric Oncology

Relapsed and refractory (RR) acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) poses unique and difficult challenges to a practicing clinician in India where access to novel immunotherapies is limited. Between 2017 and 2020, eight patients with B-cell ALL at our center received inotuzumab ozogamicin (IO) monotherapy on compassionate access, as salvage therapy after at least two lines of conventional therapy failure, and most often as outpatient infusion. Eight patients (21–60 years, three females) received IO. Three patients had morphologic relapse and five patients reported persistent measurable residual disease (MRD). The best response on IO therapy achieved was negative MRD in six of seven patients and complete response (CR) with persistent MRD in one. One patient died (intracranial hemorrhage) before completion of first cycle. All responding patients were transplant eligible and four patients (57%) underwent allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (Allo-HCT). Median follow-up of this coh...

Health‐related quality of life with fixed‐duration venetoclax‐obinutuzumab for previously untreated chronic lymphocytic leukemia: Results from the randomized, phase 3 CLL14 trial

American Journal of Hematology, 2021

Chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL)-related symptoms impair the well-being of patients, making improvement of health-related quality of life (QoL) a goal of treatment. The CLL14 trial demonstrated higher efficacy of fixed-duration venetoclaxobinutuzumab (Ven-Obi) compared to chlorambucil-obinutuzumab (Clb-Obi) in patients with previously untreated CLL. To assess patients' QoL, the following patient-reported outcomes (PRO) measures were assessed: the M.D. Anderson Symptom Inventory (MDASI) core instrument and CLL module and the EORTC Quality of Life Questionnaire Core 30 (EORTC QLQ-C30). At treatment start, physical functioning (mean 75.9 [standard deviation (SD) ± 20.1] in the Clb-Obi arm and 76.9 [±19.4] in the Ven-Obi arm), role functioning (73.6 [±27.86] and 72.6 [±26.9]) and GHS/QoL (63.6 [±21.0] and 60.3 [±20.5]) were comparable between treatment arms per EORTC QLQ-C30 scale scores. Baseline levels of physical and role functioning were maintained throughout treatment and follow-up, with no relevant improvement or deterioration. On average, patients treated with Ven-Obi showed a meaningful improvement of GHS/QoL during treatment and follow-up by at least eight points at cycle three, whereas improvement was delayed until cycle eight with Clb-Obi. According to MDASI scores, CLL symptoms (1.5 [±1.2] and 1.6 [±1.3]), core cancer symptoms (1.5 [±1.4] and 1.8 [±1.7]) and symptom interference (2.1 [±2.3] and 2.3 [±2.3]) were generally low and comparable between treatment arms at baseline and were maintained throughout treatment and follow-up. This analysis demonstrates that the higher efficacy of Ven-Obi is not associated with QoL impairment and that Ven-Obi achieves early relief of CLL-related symptoms in elderly unfit patients. 1 | INTRODUCTION One of the main aims of treatment optimization for patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) is the improvement of remission Michael Hallek and Kirsten Fischer contributed equally to this study.

Inotuzumab ozogamicin in pediatric patients with relapsed/refractory acute lymphoblastic leukemia (R/R ALL)

Journal of Clinical Oncology, 2017

10512 Background: Inotuzumab ozogamicin (InO), a CD22-targeting antibody linked to calicheamicin demonstrated exceptional activity in R/R ALL in adults. InO has been available to pediatric patients with R/R ALL via a compassionate access program. Methods: Participating international pediatric oncology centers received IRB approval to submit retrospective demographic, outcome and toxicity data on pediatric patients who received at least one dose of InO. Results: Thirty-four patients, age 2.3-21.4 yrs (median 11.7) received 1-4 cycles (3 weekly doses) of InO. Patients were heavily pretreated in 1st-5threlapse; 28 were refractory to their preceding regimen. Thirteen patients had prior hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT), 27 received prior CD19 and 8 prior CD22-directed therapy. Pre-InO disease was M3 ( > 25% blasts) in 26 patients, M2 (5-25%) in 3, and MRD only in 5 (1 with extramedullary disease). Of 29 patients with M2/M3 disease at baseline, 18 (62%) achieved a complete rem...

A phase 1 study of inotuzumab ozogamicin in pediatric relapsed/refractory acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ITCC-059 study)

Blood, 2020

This phase 1 study investigated the recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D) of inotuzumab ozogamicin (InO), a CD22-directed antibody-drug conjugate, in pediatric patients with multiple relapsed/refractory (R/R) CD22+ acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). Patients (age ≥1 year or <18 years) received 3 doses of InO (days 1, 8, and 15) per course. Dose escalation was based on dose-limiting toxicities (DLTs) during course 1. Dose level 1 (DL1) was 1.4 mg/m2 (0.6, 0.4, 0.4 mg/m2) and DL2 was 1.8 mg/m2 (0.8, 0.5, 0.5 mg/m2). Secondary end points included safety, antileukemic activity, and pharmacokinetics. Twenty-five patients (23 evaluable for DLTs) were enrolled. In course 1, the first cohort had 1 of 6 (DL1) and 2 of 5 (DL2) patients who experienced DLTs; subsequent review considered DL2 DLTs to be non–dose-limiting. Dose was de-escalated to DL1 while awaiting protocol amendment to re-evaluate DL2 in a second cohort, in which 0 of 6 (DL1) and 1 of 6 (DL2) patients had a DLT. Twenty-three pati...

Patient-Reported Quality of Life before and after Stopping Treatment in the ENESTop Trial of Treatment-Free Remission for Patients with Chronic Myeloid Leukemia in Chronic Phase

Blood, 2016

Background: ENESTop (NCT01698905) is an ongoing, single-arm, phase 2 study evaluating treatment-free remission (TFR) in patients (pts) with chronic myeloid leukemia in chronic phase (CML-CP) who achieved sustained molecular response 4.5 (MR4.5; BCR-ABL1 ≤ 0.0032% on the International Scale [BCR-ABL1IS]) on second-line nilotinib (NIL). In the primary analysis, 57.9% (95% CI, 48.8%-66.7%) of pts who stopped NIL maintained TFR (no loss of major molecular response [MMR; ie, BCR-ABL1IS > 0.1%], confirmed loss of MR4 [ie, consecutive BCR-ABL1IS > 0.01%], or treatment reinitiation) at 48 weeks. Adverse events (AEs) were reported in 73.8% of pts during the first 48 weeks of TFR vs 77.0% during the year prior to stopping treatment. The incidence of musculoskeletal pain-related AEs was higher during TFR (42.1% vs 14.3%). To assess the potential effect of stopping NIL on quality of life (QOL), pt-reported outcomes were assessed before and during TFR. Methods: ENESTop enrolled adult pts w...
