7518 Background: Brexucabtagene autoleucel (KTE-X19) is an autologous anti-CD19 chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T-cell therapy approved for the treatment of patients (pts) with relapsed/refractory (R/R) mantle cell lymphoma (MCL). In ZUMA-2, a 93% objective response rate (ORR; 67% complete response [CR] rate) was reported with KTE-X19 in pts with R/R MCL (median follow-up: 12.3 mo; 60 efficacy-evaluable pts; Wang et al. N Engl J Med. 2020). Here, we present updated outcomes with 2 years of additional follow-up. Methods: Adult pts (≥18 years) with R/R MCL underwent leukapheresis and conditioning chemotherapy followed by a single infusion of KTE-X19. Minimal residual disease (MRD) was an exploratory endpoint (sensitivity 10-5) evaluated in peripheral blood using next-generation sequencing. Updated results are reported for all 68 treated pts. Results: After 35.6 mo median follow-up, the ORR (CR + partial response) was 91% (95% CI, 81.8-96.7), with a 68% CR rate (95% CI, 55.2-78.5). The median duration of response (DOR) was 28.2 mo (95% CI, 13.5-47.1), with 25 of 68 treated pts (37%) still in ongoing response (all CR) at data cutoff. Late relapse > 24 mo post-infusion was infrequent (n = 3). The medians for progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) were 25.8 mo (95% CI, 9.6-47.6) and 46.6 mo (95% CI, 24.9-not estimable), respectively. MRD was analyzed in 29 pts total; 24 of 29 were MRD-negative at mo 1, and 15 of 19 with available data were MRD-negative at mo 6. At data cutoff, the medians for DOR, PFS, and OS in the 15 MRD-negative pts were all not reached, vs 6.1, 7.1, and 27.0 mo, in the 4 MRD-positive pts, respectively. MRD-negative status at mo 1, 3, and 6 was associated with durable response, with 55%, 71%, and 69% of MRD-negative pts at those timepoints remaining in ongoing CR at data cutoff. Circulating tumor DNA analysis of MRD at mo 3 and 6 was predictive of relapse (AUC 0.80 and 0.75, respectively). No new safety signals were observed. Only 3% of treatment-emergent adverse events (AEs) of interest occurred since the primary report. The most frequent Grade ≥3 AE was neutropenia (1 [1%] Grade 3; 7 [10%] Grade 4). Two pts had KTE-X19-related Grade 3 serious infections: pneumonia and upper respiratory tract infection (n = 1); influenza (n = 1). There were no new cytokine release syndrome AEs and 1 new serious neurologic AE of Grade 3 encephalopathy (13.0 mo post-infusion) that was considered not related to study treatment. Three new Grade 5 AEs occurred, none of which were considered related to study treatment: Salmonella bacteremia (24.9 mo post-infusion), myelodysplastic syndrome (25.2 mo post-infusion), and acute myeloid leukemia (37.5 mo post-infusion). Conclusions: These data represent the longest follow-up of CAR T-cell therapy in pts with MCL to date and suggest that KTE-X19 induces durable long-term responses with manageable safety and low late relapse potential in R/R MCL. Clinical trial information: NCT02601313.
Introduction: As previously reported, the combination of brentuximab vedotin with doxorubicin, vinblastine and dacarbazine (A+AVD) demonstrated a statistically significant improvement in modified progression free survival (modified PFS) compared with doxorubicin, bleomycin, vinblastine and dacarbazine (ABVD) in patients with newly diagnosed Stage III or IV classical HL in the phase 3 ECHELON-1 trial (NCT01712490). The benefit of A+AVD in the ITT population observed in the primary analysis was maintained at 3-years median follow-up [3-year PFS: A+AVD: 83.1% (79.9-85.9), ABVD: 76% (72.4-79.2)] and appears independent of interim PET status, disease stage, and prognostic risk factors. Here we present the efficacy and safety results of longer follow-up at a median 43.3 months. Methods: Newly diagnosed patients with Stage III or IV cHL were randomized 1:1 to receive A+AVD (n=664) or ABVD (n=670) intravenously on days 1 and 15 of each 28-day cycle for up to 6 cycles. The primary endpoint of the study was modified PFS per independent central review. The present follow-up PFS analysis is exploratory and per investigator assessment, with a cutoff date of June 17th, 2019. Patients with ongoing peripheral neuropathy (PN) at end of treatment were followed for resolution or improvement (defined as improved by ≥1 grade from worst grade as of the latest assessment) during the post-treatment follow-up period. Results: With a median follow-up of 43.3 months, the 42-month PFS per investigator for all patients was 82.4% (95% CI, 79.1-85.2) on the A+AVD arm and 76.2% (95% CI, 72.6-79.4) on the ABVD arm [overall HR 0.697 (95% CI, 0.547-0.890)]. Exploratory subgroup analyses of PET2(+) and PET2(-) patients showed a treatment effect in favor of A+AVD. The 42-month PFS in PET2(-) patients was 85.0% (95% CI, 81.6-87.7) for A+AVD and 79.6% (95% CI, 75.9-82.8) for ABVD [overall HR 0.695 (95% CI, 0.526-0.919)]; in PET2(+) patients 42-month PFS was 68.3% (95% CI, 54.5-78.7) for A+AVD and 51.5% (95% CI, 38.2-63.4) for ABVD [overall HR 0.552 (95% CI, 0.308-0.989)]. Upon continued follow-up, 81% (356/442) of patients with PN in the A+AVD arm had either complete resolution (64%, 283/442) or improvement (17%, 73/442) of their PN events compared with 83% (236/286) with either complete resolution (74%, 212/286) or improvement (8%, 24/286) in the ABVD arm. Among patients with ongoing PN after continued follow-up, the majority were Grade 1/2 events, with 89% (141/159; 59% Grade 1) and 95% (70/74; 65% Grade 1) on the A+AVD and ABVD arms, respectively. Overall survival data are not yet mature; per protocol, the final analysis will be performed after 112 deaths have occurred. Additional follow-up at an estimated median of ~4 years, including data from prespecified subgroups, will be presented. Conclusions: With a median follow-up of 43.3 months, A+AVD continues to provide a robust, durable benefit for patients with previously untreated Stage III or IV cHL compared with ABVD; the benefit is evident regardless of patient status at interim PET [PET2(+) or PET2(-)] and without the need for treatment intensification. PN continued to completely resolve or improve in patients on the A+AVD and ABVD arms. Together, these data further support the clinical advantages of A+AVD versus ABVD as treatment for patients with previously untreated Stage III or IV cHL.
