Reactivation of cytomegalovirus (CMV) or Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) is common after hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT). Previous researches have demonstrated that either CMV or EBV reactivation is associated with poor outcomes of HSCT. However, few studies investigate the impact of CMV and EBV co-reactivation after HSCT. In this study, we described the clinical characteristics of HSCT recipients with CMV and EBV co-reactivation (defined as CMV and EBV viremia occur at the same period of time). We conducted a longitudinal study of 247 patients who underwent HSCT in our center. A total of 24 (9.7%) patients had CMV and EBV co-reactivation. These patients showed higher incidence of viral pneumonitis (P=0.005). Patients with CMV and EBV co-reactivation had significant lower 1-year overall survival (OS) (P=0.004) and lower 1-year leukemia free survival (LFS) (P=0.016). Our further analysis suggested that duration of CMV (P=0.014), EBV (P<0.001), and CD4+CD25+ T cell counts at day 30 post-transplantation (P=0.05) are independent risk factors of virus co-reactivation. In conclusion, patients who developed co-reactivation of CMV and EBV had poor prognosis in terms of lower 1-year OS and LFS, and the CMV and EBV co-reactivation was associated with prolonged CMV or EBV duration and poor CD4+CD25+ T cell reconstitution at day 30 post-transplantation.
Background: HQP1351, a novel, orally active potent 3rd generation TKI, was designed for treatment of patients with chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) resistant to current TKI-therapies including those with T315I mutation. This is an updated report of the safety and efficacy of HQP1351. Methods: It is an open-label, dose escalation and expansion phase 1 trial of HQP1351 which was designed to determine maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and to identify dose-limiting toxicities (DLTs) in patients with CML in the chronic phase (CP) or accelerated phase (AP) resistant or intolerant to ≥ 2 prior TKIs or those with T315I mutation after ≥1 prior TKI. HQP1351 was orally administered once every other day (QOD) in 28-day cycles at 11 dose cohorts ranging from 1mg to 60 mg. The eligible patients received continuous treatments until disease progression to AP or BP, developing intolerant toxicity, consent withdrawal, or death. Blood samples were collected at certain time points on Day 1-2 and Day 27-28 during cycle 1 for PK analyses. Results: From 26 October, 2016 to 27 May, 2019, 101 patients including 87 CP patients and 14 AP patient were enrolled in this study. Seventy-one (70.3%) patients were male. Median duration of follow-up was 12.8 (range, 1.2-31.5) months. Median age was 40 (range, 20-64) years. Median interval from CML diagnosis to starting HQP1351 treatment was 5.8 (range, 0.3-15.2) years. Eighty-three (83.8%) patients received ≥2 prior lines of TKI-therapy. Sixty-two (61.4%) patients harbored T315I mutation. Seventeen patients who initially assigned to the dose escalation cohorts ranging from 1mg to 20 mg moved to 30 mg or higher dose cohorts via intra-patient dose escalation. Fifty-six patients enrolled in the dose expansion part of the trial, including 30mg,40mg and 50mg dose cohorts. Two out of 3 patients at 60mg dose cohort experienced DLT and 50mg QOD was considered as the MTD. During the follow-up period, HQP1351 was well-tolerated in each dose cohort with an exception of 60 mg cohort. All patients experienced ≥1 treatment related adverse events (TRAEs), most of the non-hematologic TRAEs were reported as grade 1 or grade 2. The most common hematologic TRAE of grade 3/4 was thrombocytopenia (49.5%). The incidences of TRAEs tended to be dose-dependent. No death and grade 5 AEs occurred. The incidence of common TRAEs (≥ 10% any grade) are summarized in Table1. HQP1351 showed potent anti-leukemic activities in CML patients. In the 68 evaluable patients with non-CHR at baseline, 63 (92.6%) achieved CHR including 52 out of 55 (94.5%) CP patients and 11 out of 13 (84.6%) AP patients, respectively. In the 95 evaluable patients with non-CCyR at baseline, 56 out of 81 (69.1%) CP patients achieved MCyR including 49 (60.5%) CCyR; and 6 out of 14 (42.9%) AP patients, achieved MCyR including 5 (35.7%) CCyR, respectively. In the 100 evaluable patients, 32 out of 86 (37.2%) CP patients and 5 out of 14 (35.7%) AP patients achieved MMR, respectively. HQP1351 showed highly efficacious in the patients with T315I mutation (Figure A, B). The probability and the depth of response increased with prolonged treatment period (Figure C). As the cut-off date of May 27 2019, 9 patients (5 CP and 4 AP) withdrawn from the study, including progression to AP or BP (n=5), intolerant AEs (n=2), consent withdrawal (n=1), and newly diagnosis of breast cancer (n=1). The progression free survival (PFS) rate at 18-month was 94% in the CP patients and 61% in the AP patients (Figure D). PK analyses indicated an approximately dose proportional increase in exposure (AUC and Cmax) following oral administration of HQP1351 at doses from 1mg to 60 mg. The peak concentration of HQP1351 was reached at 4-8h. The elimination appeared to be linear with a mean terminal T1/2 of 17.5 to 42.5 h. Slight to moderate accumulation was observed on Day 27 following multiple dosing. Reduction of CRkL phosphorylation in PBMCs, a biomarker of BCR-ABL inhibition, has shown to be dose and time dependent in 53 evaluable patients treated with HQP1351. Conclusions: HQP1351 was well tolerated and exhibited significant and durable antitumor activity in the patients with TKI-resistant CML, including those with T315I mutation. Two pivotal studies of HQP1351 in CML-CP and CML-AP patients with T315I mutation are ongoing in China. Disclosures Chen: HealthQuest Pharma Inc.: Employment. Niu:HealthQuest Pharma Inc.: Employment.

Rationale:Phlegmonous gastritis is a rare bacterial infection of the gastric wall with high mortality. However, diagnosis of phlegmonous gastritis is difficult and standard treatment remains unestablished.Patient concerns:We report a 33-year-old male patient with mixed-phenotype acute leukemia who developed acute phlegmonous gastritis during the neutropenia phase on induction chemotherapy and was successfully treated.Diagnoses:The patient was diagnosed with phlegmonous gastritis, which might be caused by Stenotrophomonas maltophilia on the basis of clinical manifestation, physical examination, enhanced computed tomography scan, histological finding, and microorganism culture of biopsied specimen in endoscopy.Interventions:The patient was treated with gastrointestinal decompression and broad-spectrum antibiotics.Outcomes:He recovered from phlegmonous gastritis and received the 2nd cycle of chemotherapy with no complaint of abdominal discomfort.Lessons:Early recognition and proper management including broad-spectrum antibiotics are key approaches to phlegmonous gastritis.
INTRODUCTION HQP1351 (olverembatinib) is an orally active third-generation BCR-ABL TKI designed for treatment of the patients with CML, harboring T315I mutation, which confers resistance against all first- and second-generation TKIs. METHODS The TKI resistant CML patients harboring T315I mutations either in chronic-phase (CP), or in accelerated-phase (AP), were enrolled into two single-arm, multicenter, open-label pivotal studies: HQP1351-CC201 in and HQP1351-CC202, respectively. The HQP1351 was administered at 40 mg once every other day (QOD) for 28 consecutive days per cycle over 24 months. The primary objective was to evaluate efficacy by major cytogenetic response (MCyR) in patients with CML-CP and major hematologic response (MaHR) in CML-AP. Secondary objectives included safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics (PK). RESULTS Baseline characteristics Study CC201 (CML-CP) As of the study cut-off date of March 23, 2020, total 41 patients were enrolled, of whom 38 (92.7%) completed ≥ 6 cycles and 21 (51.2%) were male. Median (range) follow-up was 7.9 (3.1-11.1) months, median age was 47 (22-70) years old. Median (range) interval from CML diagnosis to first HQP1351 treatment was 5.31 (0.6-23.2) years, and 32 (78.1%) patients received ≥ 2 prior lines of TKI. Three patients withdrew from the study-due to progressive disease (PD), intolerance, or consent withdrawal. Study CC202 (CML-AP) As of the cut-off date of February 11, 2020, total 23 patients were enrolled, of whom 18 (78.3%) completed ≥ 6 cycles and 18 (78.3%) were male. Follow-up duration was 8.2 (1.4-9.6) months, median age was 41 (21-74) years old. Median interval from CML diagnosis to first dose of HQP1351 was 4.96 (0.4-10.2) years, and 18 (78.3%) patients received ≥ 2 prior TKIs. Five patients withdrew because of PD or intolerance before Cycle 6. Efficacy Study CC201 (CML-CP) Across a median follow-up of 7.9 months, the mean (95% CI) 3-month progression-free survival (PFS) was 100% (100-100%) and 6-month PFS 96.7% (78.6-99.5%) because of 1 PD. In 31 evaluable patients who did not have a complete hematologic response (CHR) at baseline, 30 (96.8%) achieved CHR. In 41 evaluable patients who did not have a complete CyR (CCyR) at baseline, 31 (75.6%) achieved MCyR, including 27 (65.9%) CCyR and 4 (9.8%) partial CyR (PCyR). Total 20 out of 41 (48.8%) evaluable patients achieved major molecular response (MMR; Figure 1). Study CC202 (CML-AP) Across a median follow-up of 8.2 months, the 3-month PFS was 100% (100-100%) and the 6- month PFS 95.5% (71.9-99.3%) because of 2 PDs. A total of 18 (78.3%) of 23 evaluable patients without MaHR at baseline achieved MaHR, including 14 (60.9%) with CHR. In the 23 evaluable patients without MCyR at baseline, 12 (52.2%) patients achieved MCyR, including 9 (39.1%) CCyR and 3 (13.1%) PCyR. A total of 6 out of 23 (26.1%) evaluable patients achieved MMR (Figure 1). HQP1351 was highly and durably efficacious in the CML patients with T315I mutation; the probability and depth of clinical response may increase with prolonged treatment period. Safety/tolerability Study CC201 Frequent treatment-related adverse events (TRAEs; all grades; G3-4) included thrombocytopenia (65.9%; 48.8%), followed by anemia (48.8%; 24.4%), leukopenia (46.3%; 12.2%), and neutropenia (36.6%; 19.5%). Common non-hematologic TRAEs of any grade included skin pigmentation (53.7%) as well as elevations in creatine kinase (48.8%), ALT (31.7%) and AST (26.8% which most were grade 1 - 2. No death occurred. Study CC202 Common TRAEs (all grades; G3-4; serious AE [SAE]) included thrombocytopenia (73.9%; 52.2%; 17.4%), anemia (65.2%; 39.1%; 13.0%), leukopenia (56.5%; 30.4%; 0%), and neutropenia (26.1%; 21.7%; 0%;). Common non-hematologic AEs included skin pigmentation (69.6%), hypocalcemia (52.2%), proteinuria (52.2%), hypertriglyceridemia (47.8%), hyperphosphatemia (43.5%), arthralgia (34.8%), and fatigue (26.1%), of which most were grade 1- 2. CONCLUSIONS HQP1351 has been shown highly efficacious in heavily TKI-pretreated patients with T315I-mutated CML-CP or CML-AP and was well tolerated.
