    A PHASE II STUDY OF MINI-HYPER-CVD PLUS VENETOCLAX IN PATIENTS WITH PHILADELPHIA CHROMOSOME-NEGATIVE ACUTE LYMPHOBLASTIC LEUKEMIA () -  May 13, 2022 - Abstract #EHA2022EHA_648;    
    Responding pts received vincristine and prednisone maintenance with VEN daily on D1-14 of each 28-day cycle for up to 2 yrs...Of the 15 B-ALL pts, 6 had previously received both blinatumomab (blina) and inotuzumab (INO), 7 had received blina without INO, and 2 had received neither...Fig.1: (A) Patient disposition and survival, (B) OS and RFS for the entire cohort, (C) OS of responders and non-responders Conclusion Low dose combination chemotherapy with VEN in a population of heavily pretreated R/R ALL was well-tolerated and resulted in a response rate of 63%. This study has now been amended to add navitoclax in an attempt to further improve outcomes.

    A PHASE II STUDY OF INOTUZUMAB OZOGAMICIN FOR THE TREATMENT OF MEASURABLE RESIDUAL DISEASE-POSITIVE B-CELL ACUTE LYMPHOBLASTIC LEUKEMIA () -  May 13, 2022 - Abstract #EHA2022EHA_647;    
    INO was given at a dose of 0.6 mg/m 2 on D1 and 0.3 mg/m 2 on D8 of C1 and 0.3 mg/m 2 on D1 and 8 of subsequent cycles (up to 6 total cycles, given every 21-28 days) along with ursodiol prophylaxis...Twelve pts (60%) had Ph+ B-ALL, 11 of whom received concurrent ponatinib and 1 dasatinib...Eleven pts (55%) had received prior blinatumomab (blina) and 4 pts (20%) had prior stem cell transplantation (SCT)...Ten pts (50%) had grade 3-4 hematological toxicities (primarily neutropenia). Conclusion Low-dose, fractionated INO is a well-tolerated option for MRD eradication in Ph+ and Ph- B-ALL pts, including in those with prior blina exposure.

    BLINATUMOMAB AS CONSOLIDATION FOR ADULT B-CELL PRECURSOR ACUTE LYMPHOBLASTIC LEUKEMIA. A REAL-WORLD STUDY () -  May 13, 2022 - Abstract #EHA2022EHA_638;    
    In CR2 patients, promising DFS and OS were observed as compared to historical cohorts of patients treated with chemotherapy alone or with blinatumomab in overt relapse. Our data suggest that blinatumomab should be preferably used in consolidation rather than as salvage therapy in patients with B-ALL in first relapse

    BLINATUMOMAB ADDED TO PREPHASE AND CONSOLIDATION THERAPY IN NEWLY DIAGNOSED PRECURSOR B-ALL IN ADULTS. A PHASE II HOVON TRIAL () -  May 13, 2022 - Abstract #EHA2022EHA_633;    
    P2
    Treatment was based on a pediatric inspired protocol ( HOVON 70, Rijneveld et al., 2011) with reduced doses of anthracyclines, MTX, etoposide and PEG-ASP for pts ≥40y old...Rituximab (if CD20+), prophylactic ITs and imatinib (if Ph+) were standard...TABLE Pt characteristics Conclusion Blina can safely be added to prephase of an intensified pediatric schedule for newly diagnosed ALL up to 70y of age, albeit with dose reductions for PEG-ASP, doxorubicin and dexamethasone...The early addition of blina resulted in very early achievement of MRD negativity with 53% after prephase and 91% after blina cons-1. Further reductions of chemotherapy should be explored (especially for Ph+) if these results are maintained with longer follow-up.

    FORTY MONTHS UPDATE OF THE GIMEMA LAL2116 (D-ALBA) PROTOCOL AND ANCILLARY LAL2217 STUDY FOR NEWLY DIAGNOSED ADULT PH+ ALL () -  May 13, 2022 - Abstract #EHA2022EHA_624;    
    Among the few relapsed cases, we observed a rather high incidence of CNS involvements. These results represent the scientific rationale for the ongoing phase 3 GIMEMA LAL2820 trial, where dasatinib has been substituted by ponatinib, CNS prophylaxis has been increased, and transplant allocation is based on genomic features and minimal residual disease monitoring.

    AZACITIDINE AS TREATMENT OF KMT2A INFANT ACUTE LYMPHOBLASTIC LEUKEMIA: SINGLE CENTER EXPERIENCE () -  May 13, 2022 - Abstract #EHA2022EHA_610;    
    AZA was administered every 21 days (d) for 4 cycles (cy), with the following schedule: 55 mg/m 2 for 5 d, 55 mg/m 2 for 7 d, 75 mg/m 2 for 5 d, 75 mg/m 2 for 7 d, respectively; prednisone 1 mg/m 2 was associated to each cycle...The child received consolidation chemotherapy followed by 2 cy of bispecific CD3-CD19 antibody (ab) Blinatumomab and underwent allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT) from matched unrelated donor (MUD) with detectable MRD...Due to early relapse after HSCT, he received 2 cy of anti-CD22 ab Inotuzumab, achieving CR without platelet recovery (CRi)...Preclinical studies have revealed heterogeneous results when HMA are combined with cytotoxic drugs; results of two pilot trials of AZA combined with chemotherapy are still ongoing. Further clinical trials could clarify the optimal schedule, timings and dosage of HMA.

    Although allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplant was previously routinely used as consolidation for adults with ALL, incorporation of measurable residual disease and other risk stratification strategies has enabled better identification of patients who will benefit from allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplant. Ongoing clinical trials investigating these approaches will continue the evolution of treatment approaches for adults with ALL, with further improvement in outcomes anticipated.

    Journal:  Blinatumomab Nonresponse and High-Disease Burden Are Associated With Inferior Outcomes After CD19-CAR for B-ALL. (Pubmed Central) -  May 6, 2022   
    No abstract available With the largest series to date in pediatric CD19-CAR, and, to our knowledge, the first to study the impact of sequential CD19 targeting, we demonstrate that blinatumomab nonresponse and high-disease burden were independently associated with worse RFS and EFS, identifying important indicators of long-term outcomes following CD19-CAR.

    More importantly, treatment with OVV-CD19BiTE both in vitro and in vivo resulted in potent antitumor activity in comparison with control OVV or blinatumomab, a first-in-class BiTE, thereby resulting in long-term tumor remissions without relapse. The study provides strong evidence for the therapeutic benefits of CD19-targeting BiTE expression by OVV, and suggests the feasibility of testing the approach in clinical trials.

    However, several CD20 × CD3 BsAbs including odronextamab, mosunetuzumab, glofitamab, and epcoritamab emerged recently...In addition, how do BsAbs compare to CAR T-cell therapy and how to choose and sequence between BsAbs and CAR T-cell therapy need to be addressed. While many of these critical questions remain to be answered in clinical studies, we believe the future of BsAbs in the NHL is very bright.

    Inpatient outcomes of blinatumomab use: A national inpatient sample analysis. () -  Apr 28, 2022 - Abstract #ASCO2022ASCO_4368;    
    While many of these critical questions remain to be answered in clinical studies, we believe the future of BsAbs in the NHL is very bright. In this cross-sectional study of a large national cohort of patients receiving inpatient blinatumomab, multiple blinatumomab associated toxicities led to increased LOS and cost of hospitalization.

    Journal, IO biomarker:  Optimization of therapeutic T cell expansion in G-Rex device and applicability to large-scale production for clinical use. (Pubmed Central) -  Apr 26, 2022   
    Given the need to increase the efficiency and safety of large-scale T cell expansion for clinical use, we have optimized the method to expand in G-Rex devices both cytokine-induced killer cells (CIKs) from peripheral or cord blood and blinatumomab-expanded T cells (BETs)...CIK-Gs also showed therapeutic activity in vivo in the Ph pre-B ALL-2 model in mice. The expansion of both CIKs and BETs in G-Rex was validated in good manufacturing practices (GMP) conditions, and we plan to use G-Rex for T cell expansion in future clinical studies.
