Long-Term Outcomes and Health-Related Quality of Life (HRQoL) By Response Status for Bortezomib, Melphalan, and Prednisone (VMP) ± Daratumumab (DARA)…

2020

Introduction: DARA is a human IgGκ monoclonal antibody targeting CD38 with a direct on-tumor and immunomodulatory mechanism of action. In the phase 3 ALCYONE study (median follow-up of 40.1 months), DARA in combination with VMP (D-VMP) reduced the risk of disease progression or death by 58% versus VMP alone (median 36.4 vs 19.3 months; HR, 0.42; 95% CI, 0.34-0.51; P<0.0001) and demonstrated a significant overall survival (OS) benefit (median not reached in either group; HR, 0.60; 95% CI, 0.46-0.80; P=0.0003) for patients (pts) with transplant-ineligible newly diagnosed multiple myeloma (TIE NDMM). Here, we report the results of a subgroup analysis examining long-term efficacy outcome…

Associations of ofatumumab exposure and treatment outcomes in patients with untreated CLL receiving chemoimmunotherapy

2016

Relationships between patient characteristics, ofatumumab pharmacokinetics, and treatment outcomes were investigated in this phase 2 trial of ofatumumab plus fludarabine and cyclophosphamide (FC) in untreated chronic lymphocytic leukemia. Patients were randomized 1:1 to receive 500 or 1000 mg ofatumumab (Cycle 1; 300 mg) plus FC every 4 weeks for six cycles. Median C(max) and C(trough) values were similar at Cycle 1 regardless of the ultimate clinical outcome. At later doses, these values were higher for patients with complete response (CR) than for other patients. Higher C(max) and C(trough) values at Cycles 3 and 6 were significantly associated with an increased likelihood of CR, whereas …

Measurable Residual Disease by Next-Generation Flow Cytometry in Multiple Myeloma.

2020

[Purpose] Assessing measurable residual disease (MRD) has become standard with many tumors, but the clinical meaning of MRD in multiple myeloma (MM) remains uncertain, particularly when assessed by next-generation flow (NGF) cytometry. Thus, we aimed to determine the applicability and sensitivity of the flow MRD-negative criterion defined by the International Myeloma Working Group (IMWG).

Prognostic role of human equilibrative transporter 1 (hENT1) in patients with resected gastric cancer.

2010

Nucleoside transporter proteins are specialized proteins that mediate the transport of nucleosides and nucleoside analog drugs across the plasma membrane. The human equilibrative nucleoside transporter 1 (hENT1) is a member of these proteins and mediates cellular entry of gemcitabine, cytarabine, and fludarabine. The hENT1 expression has been demonstrated to be related with prognosis and activity of gemcitabine-based therapy in breast, ampullary, lung, and pancreatic cancer. We investigated the immunohistochemical expression of hENT in tumor samples from 111 patients with resected gastric adenocarcinoma, correlating these data with clinical parameters and disease outcomes. None of the patie…

Safety of ninety-minute daratumumab infusion.

2020

Purpose Daratumumab is the first anti-CD38 monoclonal antibody of the class approved for recurrent and refractory multiple myeloma. Grade 3 and 4 Infusion-Related Reactions (IRRs) are frequent during the first and second infusions. Due to the risks associated with severe IRRs, daratumumab is systematically administered over a period of 3.5 hours. The main objective of this study was to evaluate the safety of a 90-minute daratumumab infusion from the third infusion. Patients and methods All patients who had received two or more doses of daratumumab in monotherapy or in combination with standard infusion rates were included. We excluded patients enrolled in clinical trials. For the rapid infu…

Validation of the High-Risk Prognostic Score Defined By the Presence of Mutations in NRAS or TP53 in a Cohort of 497 Patients with Acute Myeloid Leuk…

2020

INTRODUCTION Older AML patients have a different mutational landscape compared to younger patients. The prognostic classification of AML proposed by the European Leukemia Net (2017) is based on the presence of mutations in FLT3 (ITD), NPM1, CEBPA, RUNX1, ASXL1 and TP53. However, our group has identified a high-risk prognostic score in older patients with AML, who are undergoing treatment with azacitidine or low-dose cytarabine plus fludarabine, which predict a shorter survival. OBJECTIVE Validation of the previously identified high-risk prognostic score, defined by the presence of mutations in NRAS or TP53, in 3 cohorts of patients with AML who have been studied by NGS with a custom panel i…

Fludarabine combined with radiotherapy in patients with locally advanced NSCLC lung carcinoma: a phase I study

2011

Abstract Background and purpose Fludarabine is an adenine nucleoside analogue that has significant activity in hematological malignancies and has shown promising activity in combination with radiation in preclinical solid tumor models. We designed a phase I trial exploring concurrent fludarabine and radiotherapy in patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) to determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of fludarabine given with concurrent irradiation. Materials and methods Thirteen patients with stage IIIB NSCLC received thoracic irradiation of 60 Gy. Fludarabine was administered during the 5th and 6th week of radiotherapy. Doses started at 10 mg/m2 per day and increased by s…

Correlations Between Ofatumumab Exposure and Treatment Outcomes for patients with Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia (CLL) Treated with Frontline Ofatumuma…

Abstract Abstract 1793 Introduction: Results: Seven pts (4 male) with a medianLittle is known about the pharmacokinetics (PK) and pharmacodynamics of CD20 monoclonal antibody (mAb) with chemotherapy in patients (pts) with CLL. Ofatumumab (O) is a human mAb targeting a membrane-proximal small-loop epitope on CD20 and mediates efficient complement-dependent cytotoxicity and antibody-dependent cell-mediated cytotoxicity. Safety and efficacy of O at 2 dose levels in combination with fludarabine and cyclophosphamide (FC) were evaluated in previously untreated pts with CLL. Relationship between O PK, baseline characteristics, and clinical outcomes were studied. Pts and Methods: Pts with active CL…

The Role of Gemtuzumab Ozogamicin in Elderly AML Patients in Complete Remission.

2007

Abstract The majority of patients (pts) with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) are diagnosed in their 6th and 7th decade of life. AML in elderly pts is associated with poor response to conventional chemotherapy and limited long-term survival, reflecting a higher incidence multidrug resistance mechanisms, a low bone marrow reserve which may prevent/delay the recovery of hematopoiesis after treatment, and the occurrence of co-morbidities. Gemtuzumab ozogamicin (GO) is an immunoconjugate with a humanized anti-CD33 that after internalization, releases a cytotoxic drug, calicheamicin; ≥80% of AML pts have myeloid blast cells that express the CD33 surface antigen. GO as a single agent has low antileuk…
