Abstract Introduction: The combined effect of cardiovascular (CV) risk and tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) therapy may contribute to the incidence of CV events in patients (pts) with chronic phase chronic myeloid leukemia (CP-CML). CV events can affect the overall clinical outcomes and survival of CML patients, and hospitalization due to CV events is costly; analyzing the rates and risks of CV hospitalization in pts with CML receiving TKI therapy may help to inform treatment decisions and risk mitigation strategies and to minimize costs. SIMPLICITY (NCT01244750) is an ongoing observational study of CP-CML pts in routine clinical practice receiving first-line (1L) TKIs since 2010 in the US and Europe, exploring TKI use and management patterns in clinical practice. This analysis aims to evaluate rates of CV-related hospitalization and estimate related costs in pts treated with the second-generation TKIs dasatinib (DAS) and nilotinib (NIL). Methods: CV hospitalizations were identified retrospectively from events reported by SIMPLICITY investigators over the course of treatment with DAS or NIL, from the start of treatment (any line of therapy) to 30 days after the end of that line of therapy, or prior to the start of a subsequent line of TKI therapy, whichever was sooner. Pts were followed for a maximum of five years. Owing to the observational nature of SIMPLICITY, patients were not matched between cohorts and adjustments for covariates were not made. Kaplan-Meier methods with the log-rank test were used to estimate time to first CV hospitalization. Statistical comparisons were made using t-tests and the Mann-Whitney U test for continuous variables and chi square for categorical variables. Results: Overall, 825 pts received DAS (n=417) or NIL (n=408) as 1L therapy; 376 pts received DAS (n=214) or NIL (n=162) as second-line (2L) therapy; and 124 pts received DAS (n=63) or NIL (n=61) as third-line (3L) therapy. See table for patient baseline demographics and comorbidities. No significant differences were noted between the DAS and NIL cohorts. Median age was similar between the DAS and NIL groups at 56.2 and 54.1 years. At baseline, both groups had similar CV comorbidities. A significantly greater number of pts were treated in the US vs Europe (p=0.017). Investigators reported that, during 1L DAS and NIL therapy, 43% (n=357) of pts experienced a CV disorder: 45.3% (n=189) of DAS pts and 41.2% (n=168) of NIL pts (DAS vs NIL, p=0.28). Numbers of CV-related hospitalizations occurring during DAS and NIL therapy were 16 and 36, respectively, translating to 12.6 and 27.4 CV-related hospitalizations per 1000 pt years. Across 1L, 2L, and 3L (referred to here as 'all lines') of DAS and NIL therapy, 31 and 51 CV-related hospitalizations occurred, translating to 16.7 and 28.8 CV-related hospitalizations per 1000 pt years, respectively. The three most common CV-related reasons for hospitalization were congestive cardiac failure, atrial fibrillation and myocardial infarction. The figure shows Kaplan-Meier curves of time to first CV-related hospitalization for 1L therapy, for five years of follow-up. CV-related hospitalization at 5 years of follow-up was 5% for pts on 1L DAS, 7.5% for pts on 1L NIL, 5.7% for all lines of DAS and 8.5% for all lines of NIL. Durations of hospital stay related to CV disorders for pts on 1L DAS and 1L NIL were 68 days and 263 days, translating to 53.3 and 199.8 days in hospital per 1000 pt years. Durations of hospital stay related to CV disorders for pts on all lines of DAS and NIL were 107.4 days and 226.1 days, translating to 53.3 and 199.8 days in hospital per 1000 pt years. Incremental cost differences based on mean estimates will be presented. Conclusions: CV disorders and related hospitalizations were frequently seen in patients with CP-CML in SIMPLICITY. In these patients, NIL was associated with a rate of CV hospitalization up to double that associated with DAS and lengthier hospital stay. Owing to the survival benefits conferred by TKIs, it is critical to minimize and manage complications that may arise in treated pts; potential for greater morbidity and healthcare cost should be considered when making decisions about TKIs to use in individual pts, particularly those with preexisting CV comorbidities.

Introduction: CV events in CP-CML can negatively impact clinical and survival outcomes (Coutinho et al, Clin Lymphoma Myeloma Leuk, 2017), and CV-related hospitalization (hosp.) is costly (Nicholson et al, Clinicoecon Outcomes Res, 2016; Naccarelli et al, Clin. Cardiol, 2010). Mounting evidence suggests the common CV risk factors observed in individuals over the age of 60 combined with tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) therapy may contribute to CV events in patients (pts) with CP-CML (Moslehi & Deininger, J Clin Oncol, 2015; Aghel et al, Vasc Health Risk Manag, 2017). SIMPLICITY is an ongoing observational study of pts with CP-CML receiving first-line (1L) TKIs in routine clinical practice in Europe and the United States (US). Here, we assess CV-related hosp. rates for SIMPLICITY pts in the US receiving 1L imatinib (IM), dasatinib (DAS), or nilotinib (NIL), including the incidence of hospital admissions and length of hospital stay (LOS), and related costs. Methods: In US pts, CV-related hosp. during 1L IM, DAS, or NIL therapy were identified from review of the electronic case report forms completed by clinicians. To control for possible confounding effects of multiple lines of TKI therapy, pts were followed from 1L TKI initiation to 30-days post-treatment or TKI switch, whichever came first. CV-related hosp. rates and LOS during 1L therapy were evaluated on a per-1,000-pt-year (PY) basis. For each CV event, mean total hosp. costs were derived from the 2016 Healthcare Cost and Utilization Project-National (Nationwide) Inpatient Sample database, to which professional fees from peer-reviewed literature were added; the medical component of the Consumer Price Index was used to convert 2016 costs to 2018 US dollars ($). Statistical comparisons for continuous variables were made using t-tests and the Mann-Whitney U test, and chi-square test for categorical variables. Time to first CV-related hosp. was evaluated using Kaplan-Meier methods with the log-rank test. Results: In the US, 808 pts were receiving 1L IM (n=243), DAS (n=301), or NIL (n=264); median follow-up was approximately 4 years (48.7-51.3 months). Age, treatment center type, and baseline fatigue differed significantly between the groups (p<0.05); stratification of duration of therapy in pts showed significant differences between the three TKI cohorts (p=0.0005; Table 1). The number of pts with CV-related hosp. was similar between IM (11 [4.5%]) and DAS (13 [4.3%]) cohorts, but higher in the NIL cohort (21 [8.0%]), equating to 16.6, 14.1, and 25.0 CV-related hosp. per 1,000 PY, respectively. Total CV-related LOS was 81, 36, and 98 days for the IM, DAS, and NIL groups, respectively, translating to 122.4, 46.5, and 116.9 hospital stay days per 1,000 PY. Most frequently experienced CV events were cardiac failure (IM=3.0, DAS=3.2, NIL=7.2 [per 1,000 PY]) and hemorrhage (IM=7.6, DAS=2.2, NIL=4.8 [per 1,000 PY]); rate of the latter was lowest in the DAS group. The rate of myocardial infarction-related hosp. was 1.5 and 2.4 per 1,000 PY for IM and NIL cohorts, respectively. Most inpatient days were due to cardiac failure (IM=13.6, DAS=10.8, NIL=56.1 [per 1,000 PY]) and hemorrhage (IM=80.1, DAS=5.4, NIL=22.7 [per 1,000 PY]); for DAS and NIL, cardiac failure caused the most inpatient days, whereas CV-related hemorrhage was responsible for the most IM-related hospitalization days. 43.8% of the observed CV-related hosp. occurred within 12 months of 1L TKI initiation, with 68.8% occurring by the 18-month mark (Figure 1). No difference in time to first CV-related hosp. with 1L TKI was seen between cohorts (p=0.4644). CV-related hosp. costs were highest among pts receiving IM or NIL, approximately twice that of the DAS cohort. Estimates derived from the product of mean hosp. cost per CV event and the rate of hosp. showed total CV hosp. costs of $475,058, $264,053, and $495,688 per 1,000 PY for IM, DAS, and NIL, respectively. Conclusions: CV-related events and hosp. were reported among US pts with CP-CML receiving 1L TKIs; the majority of which occurred within 18 months of TKI initiation. The incidence of CV-related hosp. and LOS, and mean hosp. costs were lowest among pts receiving DAS compared with the IM and NIL cohorts. The potential for added morbidity, healthcare utilization, and associated costs due to CV complications must be considered when making decisions on the appropriate TKI for individual pts with CP-CML.

Abstract Abstract 1128 Poster Board I-150 Imatinib (IM), a tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI), has been the mainstay of treatment for chronic phase chronic myeloid leukemia (CP-CML). However, IM resistance and intolerance are of considerable clinical relevance. Dasatinib (DAS), a second-line TKI, is effective in the IM-intolerant patient population. The purpose of this study was to determine baseline factors that can affect DAS response and evaluate long term efficacy in this population. Intolerance to IM was defined as ≥ Grade 3 non-hematologic toxicity and/or Grade 4 hematologic toxicity lasting > 7 days. A total of 271 Ph+ CP-CML IM-intolerant patients who received DAS were pooled from two randomized trials (Phase II-trial, CA 180013 and Phase III trial, CA 180034). DAS doses were 50 mg BID (n=43), 70 mg BID (n=141), 100 mg QD (n=43) or 140 mg QD (n=44). At baseline, the median duration of disease for the IM-intolerant patients was 24 months (range: 0.9-182.5) and the median duration of IM therapy was 9 months (range: 0.03-69.06). Of these patients, 46 (17%) had hematologic toxicity and 228 (84.1%) had non-hematologic toxicity to IM. Seventy-nine (29%) patients had prior complete cytogenetic response (CCyR) on IM and 171 (63%) patients did not. The data for prior CyR to IM was not reported for 21 (7.7%) patients. Of the 79 patients who had achieved CCyR on IM, 30 patients had maintained CCyR and 49 patients had lost this response prior to start of DAS. Of the 171 patients who did not achieve CCyR on IM, 62 (36.3%) had been on IM for 3 12 months and 109 (63.7%) for < 12 months. At 2-year follow up of the 271 patients treated with DAS, 121 (44.6%) discontinued DAS (7.4% due to hematologic toxicity and 14% due to non-hematologic toxicity). Of the patients who were intolerant of IM due to hematologic toxicity (n=46), 10 (21.7%) discontinued DAS due to hematologic toxicity, and 3 (6.5%) due to other toxicities. Of the patients with non-hematologic IM-intolerance (n=228), 10 (4.4%) discontinued DAS due to hematologic toxicity, and 35 (15.4%) due to other toxicities. The median average daily dose of DAS was 99 mg/day in the population who achieved CCyR on DAS and 71.5 mg/day in the population who did not achieve CCyR on DAS. The probability of achieving CCyR on DAS was 43.5% in patients with hematologic IM-intolerance versus 78.9% with non-hematologic IM-intolerance. The CCyR, major molecular response (MMR), progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) at 2-year follow up for the groups classified by their CCyR status at start of DAS or IM-intolerance status are summarized in Table 1. Conclusions DAS was well-tolerated and associated with high rates of CyR in IM-intolerant patients. Patients with a prior CCyR to IM and those who switched due to non-hematologic imatinib-intolerance had the highest rates of CCyR and MMR on DAS, while patients without CCyR after more than 12 months of IM therapy or IM-intolerance due to hematologic toxicity had the lowest rates of CCyR and MMR.

Abstract Abstract 3785 Bosutinib (BOS) is an orally active, dual Src/Abl tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI). This open-label, phase 1/2 study evaluated BOS in patients (pts) with chronic phase chronic myeloid leukemia (CP CML) following TKI failure. A total of 119 pts aged ≥18 y with prior imatinib (IM) failure plus dasatinib (DAS) resistance (n = 38), DAS intolerance (n = 50), nilotinib (NIL) resistance (n = 27), NIL intolerance (n = 1), or failure of DAS and NIL (n = 3) received BOS starting at 500 mg/d. Median age was 56 y (range, 20–79 y); 45% of pts were male; median time from CML diagnosis was 6.5 y (range, 0.6–18.3 y). Median BOS duration was 8.6 mo (range, 0.2–60.8 mo); 24% of pts are still on treatment. Dose escalation to BOS 600 mg/d occurred in 19% of pts. Time from last pt's first dose to data cutoff was 25 mo (median follow-up duration of 31.4 mo [range, 0.3–66.0 mo]). A confirmed complete hematologic response (CHR) was attained/maintained by 73% of evaluable pts (Table). The Kaplan-Meier (KM) probability of maintaining a CHR at 2 y was 67%. A major cytogenetic response (MCyR) was attained/maintained by 41%, including 32% with a complete cytogenetic response (CCyR). Among evaluable pts without a baseline CCyR, 36% (n = 37/102) achieved a MCyR, including 28 (28%) with a CCyR. The KM probability of maintaining a MCyR at 2 y was 71%. Of 86 pts with baseline mutation status, 40 (47%) pts had 19 unique Bcr-Abl kinase domain mutations, including 7 (8%) pts with T315I. Responses were seen across mutations (75% CHR, 43% MCyR excluding T315I), including those conferring resistance to other TKIs; responses in pts with T315I were low (29% CHR; 14% MCyR). Nine of 37 pts evaluated at baseline and treatment discontinuation had ≥1 new mutation (V299L, n = 4; L248V, n = 2; T315I, n = 2; F359C, n = 1; G250E, n = 1); 8 of 9 pts had discontinued BOS due to disease progression or lack of efficacy. On-treatment transformation to accelerated phase CML occurred in 5 (4%) pts after 16 to 428 d on study; no pt transformed to blast phase CML. KM-estimated on-treatment progression-free survival (PFS) at 2 y was 75%; KM-estimated overall survival (OS) at 2 y was 84% (Table). There were 23 (19%) deaths on study, with 6 deaths occurring ≤30 d after the last BOS dose. Most deaths were due to disease progression (n = 10 [8%]) or an adverse event (AE; n = 10 [8%]; including 1 treatment-related death due to gastrointestinal bleeding). Three deaths were due to unknown cause ≥509 d after the last BOS dose. Non-hematologic treatment-emergent AEs (TEAEs) seen in ≥20% of pts (all grades; grade 3/4) included diarrhea (82%; 8%), nausea (49%; 1%), vomiting (40%; 1%), rash (27%; 3%), headache (26%; 3%), fatigue (24%; 1%), and abdominal pain (20%; 1%). The incidence of individual TEAEs was generally similar across groups regardless of prior TKI exposure. Diarrhea TEAEs were predominantly grade 1/2, first reported early during treatment (median time to first event of 1.5 d [range, 1–210 d]), and transient (median event duration of 2 d [range, 1–524 d]). The incidence of pleural effusion was highest among DAS-intolerant pts (n = 11 [22%], including 3 pts with grade 3 events); for 9 of 11 pts pleural effusion had been indicated as a reason for intolerance to prior DAS. Grade 3/4 laboratory abnormalities reported in ≥10% of pts included thrombocytopenia (25%), neutropenia (19%), lymphopenia (17%), and hypermagnesemia (12%). Dose reductions and interruptions were used to manage AEs in 50% and 66% of pts. A total of 32 (27%) pts discontinued treatment due to an AE, most commonly hematologic events. In conclusion, BOS therapy continues to demonstrate durable efficacy and manageable toxicity after follow-up of ≥24 mo in CP CML following resistance or intolerance to multiple TKIs, with a majority of pts maintaining response at 2 y and few new transformations, deaths, TEAEs, or discontinuations due to AEs since the prior report ∼1 y earlier (Blood 2012;119:4303–12). n (%) IM + DAS-R IM + DAS-I IM + NIL-R IM + DAS ± NILa Total Evaluableb 37 49 25 4 115     CHR 23 (62) 39 (80) 19 (76) 3 (75) 84 (73) Evaluableb 36 44 26 4 110     MCyR 12 (33) 21 (48) 10 (39) 2 (50) 45 (41)     CCyR 7 (19) 19 (43) 7 (27) 2 (50) 35 (32) Treated 38 50 27 4 119     PFS at 2 yc 70% 81% 79% 38% 75%     OS at 2 yc 77% 85% 92% 75% 84% R, resistant; I, intolerant. a Includes 3 pts with prior exposure to all 3 TKIs and 1 NIL-I pt.

Abstract Abstract 4442 Bosutinib (BOS) is an orally active, dual Src/Abl kinase inhibitor with activity and manageable toxicity in the phase 3 BELA trial of patients (pts) with newly diagnosed (≤6 mo) chronic phase (CP) chronic myeloid leukemia (CML). The current analysis of the BELA trial summarizes the activity and tolerability of BOS 500 mg/d and imatinib (IM) 400 mg/d among older (≥65 y; BOS n = 30; IM n = 27) versus younger pts (<65 y; BOS n = 220; IM n = 225). Sokal risk scores were balanced between treatment arms but, as expected, higher among older pts (4% low; 72% intermediate; 25% high) versus younger pts (39% low; 44% intermediate; 17% high). Minimum follow-up duration was 24 mo. BOS was discontinued by 37% of pts (57% older vs 35% younger; P = 0.023); difference between age groups was primarily due to adverse events (AEs; 39% vs 22%; most commonly increased alanine aminotransferase [ALT]). IM was discontinued by 27% of pts (35% older vs 28% younger; P= 0.496); disease progression was the primary reason. In the intent-to-treat population, cumulative rate of complete cytogenetic response (CCyR) by 24 mo in older/younger pts was 70%/80% on BOS and 78%/80% on IM. Median time to CCyR was 24.0 wk for older versus 12.7 wk for younger pts on BOS and 24.4 wk versus 24.7 wk on IM; in younger pts CCyR was achieved significantly faster on BOS versus IM (P<0.001). Among older/younger pts with a CCyR, 57%/79% on BOS and 76%/85% on IM were still on treatment and retained their CCyR as of the data cutoff. Cumulative rates of major molecular response (MMR) by 24 mo in older/younger pts were 53%/60% on BOS and 48%/49% on IM. Median time to MMR was 48.1 wk for older versus 48.0 wk for younger pts on BOS and 60.6 wk versus 84.1 wks on IM; for younger pts MMR was achieved significantly faster on BOS versus IM (P<0.001). Among older/younger pts with a MMR, 63%/84% on BOS and 92%/89% on IM were still on treatment and retained their MMR as of the data cutoff. Kaplan-Meier event-free survival in older/younger pts at 2 y was 100%/91% on BOS and 81%/88% on IM. Kaplan-Meier on-treatment transformation to accelerated/blast phase CML by 2 y was 0% for older and 2% (4 transformations) for younger pts on BOS (4 total), and 9% (2 transformations) for older and 5% (11 transformations) for younger pts on IM (13 total). Kaplan-Meier overall survival in older/younger pts at 2 y was 100%/97% on BOS and 92%/95% on IM. The majority of deaths were due to disease progression (BOS, n = 6; IM, n = 10); few deaths due to AEs on BOS (n = 1) or IM (n = 2) were reported, none treatment related. BOS was associated with higher rates of gastrointestinal TEAEs, elevated ALT and aspartate aminotransferase (AST), and pyrexia; IM was associated with higher rates of musculoskeletal TEAEs and edema (Table). Rates of common TEAEs were generally similar or higher among older pts. Pleural/pericardial effusion occurred in 6 (21%) older pts (3/6 with treatment-related events; median event duration, 36.5 d) versus 5 (2%) younger pts (all with treatment-related events) on BOS, and in no IM pts. Overall grade 3/4 TEAEs were more frequent among older pts on both BOS and IM, as was dose modification (Table). Grade 3/4 lab abnormalities of elevated ALT (BOS, 18% older/24% younger; IM, 4% each) and AST (BOS, 7%/12%; IM, 4% each) were more frequent with BOS versus IM, but similar between age groups. Grade 3/4 lab abnormalities of neutropenia were more frequent with IM (23% older/22% younger) versus BOS (11% each) regardless of age; grade 3/4 anemia (6%-14%) and thrombocytopenia (14%-23%) were generally similar regardless of age or treatment arm. In conclusion, BOS demonstrated activity in both older and younger pts with newly diagnosed CP CML. Although the frequency of certain toxicities as well as treatment discontinuations due to TEAEs was higher among older pts, the toxicity profile of BOS remained manageable and distinct from that of IM regardless of age.

Abstract Background Oral BCR-ABL tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs), including imatinib (IM), dasatinib (DAS) and nilotinib (NIL), have improved survival in chronic-phase chronic myeloid leukemia (CP-CML). Few data are available that compare TKIs in daily clinical practice across multiple regions. Methods SIMPLICITY is an ongoing observational cohort study of adult patients with newly diagnosed CP-CML receiving first-line treatment with IM, DAS or NIL in the USA and Europe (Eu) outside of clinical trials (NCT01244750). The primary objective is to assess effectiveness of these TKIs in clinical practice. The study includes three ‘prospective’ cohorts of patients treated with IM, DAS or NIL since 2010 (the study opened after first-line approval of all three TKIs) and a ‘historical’ cohort treated with IM since 2008. Preliminary baseline demographics are presented for prospective cohorts. Results 860 prospective patients (Eu: 32%, USA: 68%) were enrolled through June 20, 2013, receiving IM (n=399), DAS (n=229) or NIL (n=232). Median age at initiation of first-line TKI was 56 years, with significant differences in pairwise comparisons between DAS and IM and NIL and IM (Table). Demographics were consistent across cohorts. Only 30% of patients had Hasford or Sokal scores recorded. ECOG performance status (PS) was available in 54% of patients. The number of baseline comorbidities per patient (mean: 3.2 + 2.7) was balanced across cohorts; 51% of patients presented with ≥3 comorbidities. Patients in the IM cohort had a higher prevalence of gastrointestinal comorbidities (P=.006 and .007 for DAS vs IM and NIL vs IM, respectively), and the NIL cohort had a higher prevalence of musculoskeletal comorbidities than the DAS cohort (P=.015). The proportions of patients with cardiovascular comorbidities were 38%, 36% and 42% in the DAS, NIL and IM cohorts, respectively, consisting primarily of hypertension (31%) and hyperlipidemia (17%) (P>.05 across cohorts). Coronary artery disease was present in 9%, cardiac arrhythmias in 6%, myocardial infarction in 3% and peripheral arterial disease in 2% of patients. The proportion of patients with diabetes was 10%. Clinicians reported effectiveness as the most common reason for TKI selection; familiarity and cost were also cited as reasons for IM selection (P<.001 vs DAS and NIL). Comorbidities were not drivers of TKI selection in this analysis. Conclusions This is the first report from the prospective cohorts of SIMPLICITY. Demographics were consistent across cohorts. Overall, the SIMPLICITY population is older with potentially more comorbidities than patients enrolled in first-line clinical trials with restrictive inclusion criteria (NEJM 2003 348 994; NEJM 2010 362 2260; NEJM 2010 362 2251). Initial TKI selection does not appear to be driven by baseline comorbidity, rather by perceived effectiveness, cost and familiarity. Hasford/Sokal scores were not recorded in the majority of patients prior to starting first-line TKI therapy. Outcomes data are being collected across cohorts that will inform about a multi-region population treated outside clinical trials.

Abstract Background: The addition of ixazomib to the doublet lenalidomide and dexamethasone (RD) in relapsed and refractory multiple myeloma (RRMM) has shown significant benefit in progression free survival (PFS) in the TOURMALINE-MM1 study. Several real-world data including our previous analysis confirmed that the combination IRD is feasible and with fair outcomes even outside the clinical trial. Here we report an updated analysis which is aimed at overall survival (OS) and the PFS2 interval which is defined as the time from the date of treatment initiation to the date of first documentation of progressive disease after initiation of further anti-myeloma treatment or death from any cause. Methods: We analyzed a cohort of 344 patients with RRMM, 127 being treated by IRD and 217 by RD combination. The group characteristics and study design are described elsewhere. 1 The median follow-up of the whole cohort was 28.5 months. The primary endpoint was OS, OS in patients with relapse 1-3, progression free survival (PFS), and PFS2. Secondary endpoints were response rates and toxicity profile. For statistical analysis we used Fisher's exact test or Mann-Whitney U test. Survival measures were assessed using the Kaplan-Meier methodology, and statistical significance was assessed using the log-rank test at a significance level of α = 0.05 (all tests two-sided). Results: The outcomes of OS in the whole cohort were already published before, with significantly longer median OS in the IRD vs RD cohort (mOS 36.6 months vs 26.0 months, p = 0.008).1 In the follow-up analysis, the medians were slightly improved, maintaining a significant difference (mOS 40.9 vs 27.1 months, p = 0.001). In patients treated within relapse 1-3, the results outcomes were even more pronounced (mOS 51.7 vs 27.8 months, p ˂ 0.001). The median PFS was also better in the IRD cohort (mPFS 17.5 vs 12.5 months, p = 0.013) but the results did not substantially differ from our previous analysis. The median PFS2 in the IRD vs RD cohort was significantly longer in the IRD cohort (mPFS2 29.8 vs 21.6 months, p = 0.016). The subsequent therapy included mostly pomalidomide (27.5% vs 30.8%), bortezomib (28.8% vs 28.2%) or thalidomide (10.0% vs 16.2%). Monoclonal antibodies (daratumumab, isatuximab) were more frequently used after IRD combination (21.3% vs 4.3%). The response rates in the IRD vs RD cohort were similar as in our primary analysis: overall response rate (ORR) 73.0% vs 66.8%, with significant difference in very good partial response and better (VGPR+) 38.1% vs 26.3%. The toxicity profile did not reveal any additional safety concerns. Majority of grade 3+ toxicities included hematological toxicity (anemia, neutropenia, thrombocytopenia) and infections, with similar distribution in the cohorts. Conclusion: The treatment of RRMM using the full oral IRD regimen in routine clinical practice is easy, safe and with significantly improved outcomes in comparison to RD doublet. Our follow-up analysis confirmed the impact on OS in patients in the whole cohort including relapse 1-3. The median PFS2 was also longer in the IRD cohort, possibly affected by more frequent use of monoclonal antibodies in the next treatment.

Abstract Abstract 4454 Introduction: CML represents 15% all of oncohematologic diseases in adults. IM changed the history of the disease. At one year of treatment, the emblematic IRIS study showed Major Cytogenetic Responses (MCyR) of approximately 87% and Complete Cytogenetic Responses (CCyR) of around 76%, with PFS to accelerated phase or blast crisis of 97.7% and 91.5%, respectively. Objective: To assess treatment characteristics and responses in a group of patients treated with IM in clinical practice. Materials and Method: 113 medical records of patients with CML diagnosed between 1998–2011 from two institutions in the Argentine Republic were retrospectively analyzed. Result: Mean population age was 46 years old (r 18–73) 65 male, 48 female. 97% in chronic phase, the rest in accelerated phase. 31% presented comorbidities at diagnosis. Cytogenetic abnormalities at diagnosis, in addition to the classic t(9:22), included: trisomy 8 and double Philadelphia chromosome in 4 tests. Only 7 patients had qualitative BCR/ABL determined at diagnosis. 25% had received interferon, patients received IM 400 mg and only 2% received 300 or 600 mg doses. 2.6% of patients did not achieve CHR. Cytogenetic responses assessed at any time of treatment were: Major: 12%, Minor 20%, Complete 51%, None 3%, 14% were not assessed. With a mean follow-up time of 46 months, the overall survival was 75%. 10% of patients progressed to BC/AP, 11 % of patients died due to disease-related causes or comorbidities. Conclusions: With a mean follow-up time of 46 months for chronic phase CML, treatment with IM achieved complete cytogenetic responses in 51% of patients, and progression occurred in 10% of patients. Disclosures: No relevant conflicts of interest to declare.

Abstract Abstract 455 Introduction: Bosutinib (SKI-606) is an orally active, dual competitive inhibitor of the Src and Abl tyrosine kinases. The phase 3 BELA study compared bosutinib with imatinib in patients (pts) with newly diagnosed chronic phase (CP) chronic myeloid leukemia (CML). Methods: Pts were randomized 1:1 to open-label oral bosutinib 500 mg/d (n = 250) or imatinib 400 mg/d (n = 252) and stratified by Sokal score risk group (low, medium, high) and geographical region. The primary efficacy endpoint was complete cytogenetic response (CCyR) at 12 mo in the intent-to-treat population. Key secondary and exploratory efficacy endpoints included major molecular response (MMR) at 12 mo, time to CCyR and MMR, duration of CCyR and MMR, time to and incidence of transformation to accelerated/blast phase (AP/BP) CML, event-free survival (EFS), and overall survival. Safety analyses included all treated pts. Results: The median treatment duration was 19.3 mo for bosutinib and 19.5 mo for imatinib; 67% and 74% of pts, respectively, are still receiving therapy. The primary reason for discontinuation of bosutinib was toxicity (23%), while the primary reason for discontinuation of imatinib was disease progression (13%). Rates of CCyR and MMR are shown in the table. The rate of cumulative CCyR by 18 mo was 79% in both arms, and the cumulative rate of MMR by 18 mo was 55% in the bosutinib arm versus 45% in the imatinib arm. Median time to CCyR was faster for bosutinib versus imatinib (12.7 vs 24.6 wk); median time to MMR was also faster for bosutinib versus imatinib (36.9 vs 72.3 wk). Transformation to AP/BP CML while on treatment occurred in 4 (2%) pts on bosutinib and 13 (5%) pts on imatinib. On-study deaths from any cause occurred in 6 (2%) pts receiving bosutinib versus 13 (5%) pts receiving imatinib, and included 5 (2%) and 9 (4%) pts, respectively, who died due to CML progression. Median on-treatment EFS and overall survival were not yet reached for either arm. At 18 mo, the Kaplan-Meier estimates of EFS were 95% for bosutinib versus 91% for imatinib, and the estimates of overall survival were 99% versus 95%, respectively. Bosutinib was associated with higher incidences compared with imatinib of gastrointestinal events (diarrhea [69% vs 22%, respectively], vomiting [32% vs 14%], pyrexia [18% vs 10%], and abdominal pain [13% vs 7%]). In contrast, bosutinib was associated with lower incidences of edema (peripheral edema [4% vs 11%] and periorbital edema [1% vs 14%]) and musculoskeletal events (myalgia [5% vs 11%], muscle cramps [4% vs 22%], and bone pain [4% vs 10%]). Fewer pts on bosutinib experienced grade 3/4 laboratory abnormalities of neutropenia (11% vs 24% with imatinib), while the incidences of grade 3/4 anemia and thrombocytopenia were similar between treatment arms (8% with anemia and 14% with thrombocytopenia). Grade 3/4 liver function test abnormalities occurred more frequently with bosutinib versus imatinib (increased alanine aminotransferase [23% vs 4%] and aspartate aminotransferase [12% vs 3%]). Although common with bosutinib, gastrointestinal events and liver function test abnormalities were typically transient, managed with dose modifications, and not life threatening. Conclusions: The study did not meet the primary endpoint (CCyR at 12 mo); early discontinuation of bosutinib due to adverse events may have contributed to this observed lack of difference. However, bosutinib did result in a higher rate of MMR at 12 mo, faster times to MMR and CCyR, fewer events of transformation to AP/BP CML, and fewer overall and CML-related deaths compared with imatinib, suggesting superiority of bosutinib in pts with newly diagnosed CP CML. In addition, the 18-mo estimates for both EFS and OS currently favor bosutinib. Bosutinib and imatinib were each associated with acceptable but distinct toxicity profiles. Based on these results, bosutinib may offer a new therapeutic option for pts with newly diagnosed CP CML. Minimum of 24 mo of follow-up will be presented for all pts.

Abstract Abstract 2798 Bosutinib (BOS) is an orally active, dual Src/Abl tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI). In an open-label, phase 1/2 trial BOS 500 mg/d demonstrated clinical activity and manageable toxicity in patients (pts) with chronic phase (CP) chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) following resistance/intolerance to imatinib (IM; Blood 2011;118:4567-76) and possibly dasatinib (DAS) and/or nilotinib (NI; Blood 2012;119:3403-12). This retrospective analysis investigated attainment/maintenance of major cytogenetic response (MCyR) by Months 3, 6, 9, and 12 as an early predictor of long-term outcomes in pts receiving bosutinib as second-line (CP 2L; after failure of IM only) or third/fourth-line (CP 3L; after failure of IM plus DAS and/or NIL) therapy for CP CML. Pts aged 318 y with CP CML received oral BOS starting at 500 mg/d. A total of 288 CP 2L pts with IM resistance (n = 200) or intolerance (n = 88) were enrolled: 53% were male, median age was 53 y (range, 18–91 y), and median time from CML diagnosis was 3.6 y (range, 0.1–15.1 y). A total of 119 CP 3L pts were enrolled following failure of IM plus resistance to DAS (n = 38), intolerance to DAS (n = 50), resistance to NIL (n = 27), intolerance to NIL (n = 1), or resistance/intolerance to DAS and NIL (n = 3): 45% were male, median age was 56 y (range, 20–79 y), and median time from CML diagnosis was 6.5 y (range, 0.6–18.3 y). Median treatment duration was 22.1 mo (range, 0.2–60.8 mo) for CP 2L pts and 8.6 mo (range, 0.2–60.8 mo) for CP 3L pts. Time from the last enrolled pt's first dose to the data cutoff was 23 mo for CP 2L pts, with a median follow-up duration of 31.8 mo (range, 0.6–66.0 mo). Time from the last pt's first dose to the data cutoff was 25 mo for CP 3L pts, with a median follow-up duration of 31.4 mo (range, 0.3– 66.0 mo). Among the 266 CP 2L pts who had a valid baseline cytogenetic assessment, a MCyR was attained/maintained (improved baseline cytogenetic assessment and attained a MCyR, or maintained baseline MCyR post-baseline) by 108/186 (58%) IM-resistant and 49/80 (61%) IM-intolerant pts, including 85/186 (46%) and 43/80 (54%) pts, respectively, who attained/maintained a complete cytogenetic response (CCyR). Among pts without a CCyR at baseline, 103/181 (57%) IM-resistant and 39/69 (57%) IM-intolerant pts achieved a MCyR. The Kaplan-Meier probability of maintaining a MCyR at 2 y was 71% for IM-resistant and 88% for IM-intolerant pts. Among 110 CP 3L pts who had a valid baseline cytogenetic assessment, cumulative rates for attaining/maintaining a MCyR and CCyR were 41% and 32%, respectively. The Kaplan-Meier probability of maintaining a MCyR at 2 y was 71%. A landmark analysis showed that the attainment/maintenance of a MCyR by Months 6, 9, and 12 on treatment was associated with an increased likelihood of overall survival (OS) at 2 y for both CP 2L and CP 3L pts. The difference in OS between those with and without a MCyR reached significance by Month 3 for CP 2L pts but not until Month 6 for CP 3L pts (Table). In conclusion, early attainment or maintenance of a MCyR (by Month 3) correlated with better OS in CP CML pts treated with BOS following IM failure. In CP CML pts treated with BOS following failure of 32 TKIs, 2-y OS was not different in pts with and without a MCyR prior to the Month 6 time point. This suggests that it is acceptable to allow longer periods of treatment for these pts to achieve responses without imparting significant long-term detriment.
