7510 Background: CPX-351 (Vyxeos; daunorubicin and cytarabine liposome for injection), a dual-drug liposomal encapsulation of cytarabine [C] and daunorubicin [D], is approved by the FDA and EMA for the treatment of adults with newly diagnosed therapy-related AML or AML with myelodysplasia-related changes. Primary analysis of the pivotal phase 3 study (NCT01696084) that formed the basis for these approvals evaluated patients (pts) aged 60-75 y with newly diagnosed high-risk/secondary AML and found that CPX-351 significantly improved median overall survival (OS) vs conventional 7+3, with a comparable safety profile. Here, we report the prospectively planned final 5-y follow-up results from this phase 3 study. Methods: Pts were randomized 1:1 to receive ≤2 induction cycles of CPX-351 (100 units/m2 [C 100 mg/m2 + D 44 mg/m2] as a 90-min infusion on Days 1, 3, 5 [2nd induction: Days 1, 3]) or 7+3 (C 100 mg/m2/d continuously for 7 d + D 60 mg/m2 on Days 1-3 [2nd induction: 5+2]). Pts achieving complete remission (CR) or CR with incomplete platelet or neutrophil recovery could receive up to 2 consolidation cycles. Pts could receive a hematopoietic cell transplant (HCT) at the physician’s discretion. Pts were followed until death or up to 5 y following randomization. Results: In total, 309 pts were randomized to CPX-351 (n = 153) or 7+3 (n = 156). The survival rate at 5 y was higher for CPX-351 vs 7+3 (18% vs 8%; Table). Among pts who died, the most common primary cause of death was progressive leukemia in both arms (CPX-351: 56%; 7+3: 53%). After a median follow-up of 60.65 mo, improved median OS with CPX-351 vs 7+3 was maintained: 9.33 vs 5.95 mo; Kaplan-Meier (KM) OS curves plateaued at ~30 mo. HCT was received by 53 (35%) vs 39 (25%) pts after CPX-351 vs 7+3; among these pts, the survival rate at 5 y was higher for CPX-351 vs 7+3 (52% vs 23%), and median OS landmarked from the HCT date was not reached for CPX-351 vs 10.25 mo for 7+3 (Table). Conclusions: After 5 y of follow-up, improved OS was maintained in this phase 3 study, supporting that CPX-351 has the ability to produce or contribute to long-term remission and survival in older pts with newly diagnosed high-risk/secondary AML.

Background: CPX-351 is a liposomal encapsulation of daunorubicin and cytarabine in a 1:5 molar ratio. In a randomized phase 3 study (CPX-351-301) conducted in older adults (60 to 75 years old) with newly diagnosed, high-risk and/or secondary AML, CPX-351 induction therapy was superior to standard 7+3 with improved rates of complete remission (CR) and overall survival (OS). In both older adults and high-risk AML, allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) is frequently the preferred post-remission strategy owing to the high rates of relapse and poor overall survival with conventional chemotherapy approaches. After a median follow-up of 20.7 months, the primary pre-planned analysis found that more patients randomized to CPX-351 underwent HCT and an exploratory landmark survival analysis from the time of HCT favored CPX-351 (HR = 0.46 [95% CI: 0.24, 0.89]; one-sided P = 0.009). However, the initial protocol did not collect data related to HCT and the basis for improved HCT outcomes with CPX-351 was previously unknown. Here we present a detailed analysis of HCT outcomes in patients enrolled in the CPX-351-301 study with 5-years of follow-up. Methods: Patients age 60 to 75 years with high-risk and/or secondary AML were randomized in a 1:1 fashion to receive CPX-351 or 7+3 as induction and consolidation chemotherapy (Lancet J et al, JCO 2018). The protocol was amended to collect additional HCT-specific information, including donor and HCT characteristics and post-HCT outcomes, including rates of relapse and GVHD. Post-HCT outcomes including relapse, GVHD, and death were analyzed as competing events. Results: Of 309 randomized patients in the CPX-351-301 study, more patients achieved CR/CRi with CPX-351 vs 7+3 (48% vs 33%) allowing more patients to proceed to HCT (35% vs 25%) and more patients to proceed to HCT in remission (CPX-351: 41/73 [56%]; 7+3: 24/52 [46%]). The median age was 66 years with CPX-351 vs 65 years with standard induction among the transplanted cohorts; 16 patients in the CPX-351 transplanted arm were over the age of 70 compared to only 6 in the 7+3 arm. Other pre-HCT patient characteristics were balanced between the CPX-351 and 7+3 groups, including ECOG performance status (8% vs 5% with ECOG PS of 2), HCT-CI (median 4 vs 3), donor type (matched unrelated donor 49% vs 49%), and conditioning regimen intensity (myeloablative [17% vs 13%] vs reduced-intensity conditioning [43% vs 46%]). The Kaplan-Meier-estimated 3-year survival rate among transplanted patients was 56% with CPX-351 vs 23% with 7+3 (Figure 1A). The differences in survival consistently favored CPX-351 across patient age, AML subtype, disease status, donor type, and conditioning intensity (Figure 1B). Differences in OS were driven by a large reduction in non-relapse mortality (HR = 0.42 [95% CI: 0.21, 0.86]; Figure 1D). The cumulative incidence of acute GVHD with death as a competing event at 6 months from HCT date was 0.49 (95% CI: 0.35, 0.62) in the CPX-351 arm and 0.38 (95% CI: 0.23, 0.53) in the 7+3 arm. Conclusions: Analysis of HCT outcomes in patients enrolled in the CPX-351-301 study demonstrated that treatment with CPX-351 in older adults with high-risk and/or secondary AML resulted in more patients bridged to HCT and more patients transplanted in CR/CRi compared to 7+3, with improved OS in transplanted patients. The pattern of HCT outcomes suggests improved disease control with CPX-351 induction allowing higher HCT rates, but more importantly improved tolerability with less non-relapse mortality; this data supports the development of CPX-351 in other high-risk AML populations in which allogeneic HCT is the preferred post-remission strategy.

7537 Background: CPX-351 (Vyxeos; daunorubicin [D] and cytarabine [C] liposome for injection) is approved by the FDA and EMA for the treatment of adults with newly diagnosed therapy-related AML or AML with myelodysplasia-related changes. In a phase 3 study (NCT01696084) in patients (pts) aged 60-75 y with newly diagnosed high-risk/secondary AML, CPX-351 demonstrated significantly longer overall survival (OS) and higher rates of remission and hematopoietic cell transplant (HCT) vs conventional 7+3, with a comparable safety profile. To better understand the impact of treatment on outcomes in pts who did not undergo HCT, this exploratory analysis evaluated outcomes in the subgroup who achieved complete remission (CR) or CR with incomplete neutrophil or platelet recovery (CRi) with CPX-351 vs 7+3 but did not undergo HCT. Methods: Pts were randomized 1:1 to receive ≤2 induction cycles of CPX-351 (100 units/m2 [C 100 mg/m2 + D 44 mg/m2] as a 90-min infusion on Days 1, 3, 5 [2nd induction: Days 1, 3]) or 7+3 (C 100 mg/m2/d continuously for 7 d + D 60 mg/m2 on Days 1-3 [2nd induction: 5+2]). Pts achieving CR or CRi could receive up to 2 consolidation cycles. Pts could receive HCT at the physician’s discretion. Results: CR+CRi was achieved by 73/153 (48%) pts with CPX-351 vs 52/156 (33%) with 7+3; of these pts, 33/73 (45%) vs 28/52 (54%) did not subsequently undergo HCT. The baseline characteristics of these pts were generally balanced between arms; however, the CPX-351 arm had more male pts vs 7+3 (64% vs 43%) and pts with ECOG PS of 1 (82% vs 54%), and fewer pts with antecedent MDS and HMA exposure (21% vs 39%). Median OS was longer with CPX-351 vs 7+3 (14.72 vs 7.59 mo; HR = 0.57 [95% CI: 0.31-1.03]; Table). There was no early mortality by Day 60 in either arm (see Table for additional data). Conclusions: CPX-351 improved median OS vs 7+3 in pts who achieved CR+CRi but did not undergo HCT, suggesting a treatment benefit with CPX-351 even among pts who do not undergo HCT. The CPX-351 safety profile in this subgroup was consistent with the overall study population and known profile of 7+3. Clinical trial information: NCT01696084 . [Table: see text]

Abstract Abstract 526 The prognosis of patients with high-risk myeloma (HR MM) continues to be dismal, despite the early incorporation of novel agents. Early phase trials of allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplant (alloHCT) suggest the possibility of an immunologic graft-versus-myeloma effect that might favorably affect survival. Less toxic reduced-intensity HCT preparative regimens now allow more widespread use of alloHCT in the MM population. BMT CTN 0102 is a phase III multicenter clinical trial that biologically assigned patients to either melphalan 200mg/m2 (MEL 200) auto-auto without (obs) or with 1 year of thalidomide and dexamethosone (ThalDex), or an auto-allo approach using MEL 200 followed by alloHCT using 2 Gy total body irradiation. Graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) prophylaxis was cyclosporine and mycophenolate mofetil. Patients were stratified by biological prognostic factors that were considered to be high risk at the time of the trial design: chromosome 13 deletions by metaphase karyotype and beta-2 microglobulin ≥4 mg/dl. The primary endpoint was 3-year progression free survival (PFS). Between December 2003 and March 2007, 710 patients from 43 US centers were enrolled, and 85 fulfilled the criteria of HR MM. Among them, 48 were assigned to auto-auto (24 Thal-Dex and 24 obs) and 37 to auto-allo. Groups differed in age (median 57 y and 51y, p=0.02) but were otherwise balanced. Compliance with second transplant was 65% for auto-auto and 78% for auto-allo. Compliance with ThalDex was poor, so the two auto-auto arms were pooled for the primary analysis. Three-year PFS was 33% (95% Confidence Interval (CI), 22–50%) and 40% (95% CI, 27–60%, p=0.74) and 3-year OS was 67% (95% CI, 54–82%) and 59% (95% CI, 49–78%, p=0.46) for auto-auto and auto-allo, respectively. Corresponding probabilities for 3-year progression/relapse was 53% and 33% (p=0.09), and 3 year treatment-related mortality was 8% and 20% (p=0.3). Among auto-allo patients, probabilities of grade 3–4 acute and chronic GVHD were 9% and 48%, respectively. Among the 59 (31 auto-auto, 28 auto-allo) patients who received second transplant, 3 year PFS was 35% and 46% (p=0.6). Disease response at day 56 after second transplant was 57% for very good partial response (VGPR) or better and 37% for complete response (CR) and near CR (nCR) in the auto-auto group; and 48% (VGPR or better) and 41% (CR+nCR) in the auto-allo group. In conclusion, this planned secondary analysis of a cohort of HR MM patients demonstrated equivalent 3-year PFS and OS for auto-auto and auto-allo in both intention-to-treat and as-treated analyses. However, trends in late PFS and time to progression/relapse suggest further follow-up is needed before final conclusions regarding the utility of auto-allo in this HR cohort can be made. Finally, this study shows the feasibility of an alloHCT approach for HR MM patients and may serve as a platform for future studies seeking to enhance graft-versus-myeloma effects.

Abstract Abstract 1550 Background: Clofarabine is a second generation nucleoside analogue with activity in adults with AML. A recent randomized phase III study in AML relapse showed higher response rates and better event-free survival with the combination of clofarabine and cytarabine (CA) compared to cytarabine alone. We have also reported the feasibility and safety of the addition of idarubicin to CA (CIA) in a previous phase I and II study. To explore this combination further, we conducted a phase II study of CIA in pts</= 60 years with previously untreated AML. Patients and Methods: Patients (Pts) were eligible if they were </=60 yrs of age with newly diagnosed AML. Pts were excluded for ECOG PS > 2, cardiac ejection fraction < 45%, or active and uncontrolled infection. For the first 30 pts, induction therapy consisted of Clofarabine 22.5 mg/m2 iv daily (days 1–5), Idarubicin 6 mg/m2 daily (days 1–3), and Cytarabine 0.75 g/m2 daily (days 1–5). From pt 31 onward, induction doses were amended to Clofarabine 20 mg/m2 × 5, Idarubicin 10 mg/m2 × 3, and Cytarabine 1 g/m2 × 5. Pts who have not achieved a complete remission following the induction could receive one re-induction course. Pts in CR or CRp continued with up to 6 consolidation cycles with Clofarabine 22.5 mg/m2 × 3, Idarubicin 6 mg/m2 (days 1–2), and Cytarabine 0.75 g/m2 × 3, subsequently amended to Clofarabine 15 mg/m2 × 3, Idarubicin 8 mg/m2 × 2, and Cytarabine 0.75 g/m2 × 3. Supportive care was standard. Pts ≥ 50 yrs were admitted to a laminar air flow room for the duration of the induction. Results: From April 2010 until August 2011, 51 pts have been accrued with a median age of 49 yrs (range 19–59): 33 pts (65%) with de novo AML and 18 pts (35%) with secondary AML (18 related to MDS, 7 related to therapy). Three pts (5%) had a PS of 2. Median WBC at diagnosis was 3.4 × 109/L (0.6-92.3). Thirty-three (65%) pts had abnormal cytogenetics (21/33[64%] poor risk and 5/33 [15%] intermediate risk). Molecular profile: 6 pts (11%) had FLT3/ITD, 3 pts (6%) CEBPA, and 8 pts (16%) NPM1 mutations. Thirty-five pts (69%) achieved CR and 1 (2%) CRp for an overall response rate (ORR) of 71%. 61% pts (31/51) achieved CR following one induction cycle. 18% (9/51) pts required a re-induction and 44% (4/9) of them responded after the re-induction. Responding pts received a median of 2 courses (1–8) courses. With a median follow-up of 23 weeks (3–36+) median remission duration has not been reached with a 1-yr remission probability of 85%. Ten pts (19%) died on study including 2 (4%) who died < 28 days from treatment start (one from septic shock and multi-organ failure, and one from Steven Johnson syndrome). Median overall survival (OS) for responding pts has not been reached (2–36 weeks). One-yr survival probability is 65%. Sixteen pts (31%) proceeded with an allogenic stem cell transplant in CR1. Most toxicities were </= grade 2 and included rash (41 %), nausea (29%), diarrhea (23%), elevated transaminases (21%), and elevated bilirubin (17%). Toxicities > grade 2 included elevated bilirubin (4%), hypokalemia (4%), cellulitis (4%) and seizure (1%). Myelosuppression was ubiquitous but prolonged myelosuppression > 42 days was infrequent. 76 % (39/51) pts had neutropenic fever. Conclusion: Clofarabine, Idarubicin and Cytarabine achieve a response rate of 71% in patients </=60 yrs with previously untreated AML. Induction mortality was low and the toxicity profile was expected and manageable. Longer follow up and comparisons with standard induction therapy will be needed to further assess the role of this combination in AML therapy.

8589 Background: Denosumab (dmab) is a fully human monoclonal antibody against RANKL and is superior to ZA in preventing skeletal-related events (SREs) as shown in 3 identically designed phase 3 trials (N=5723). Overall survival (OS) was balanced between treatment groups in the overall study populations of these trials. In the trial of patients (pts) with solid tumors (excluding breast and prostate) and multiple myeloma (MM), OS was longer for dmab pts with lung cancer, shorter for pts with MM, and balanced for pts with other solid tumors. This analysis further characterizes the results from the MM subset of this trial. Methods: Pts with solid tumors or MM were randomized (1:1) to receive 120 mg of SC dmab or 4 mg of IV ZA Q4W. Daily calcium and vit D supplements were strongly recommended. The primary endpoint was the time to first on-study SRE; results from the primary endpoint and lung cancer subset were previously reported. Results: Of 1776 randomized pts, 10% had MM (93 ZA, 87 dmab). OS favored ZA (hazard ratio: 2.26; 10 subject difference in deaths). 1-year OS was 83% dmab, 97% ZA. Imbalances in baseline prognostic characteristics were observed. More pts in the dmab arm had low baseline renal function (CrCl < 40 mL/min) (ZA 2 [2%], dmab 9 [10%]) and more ZA pts underwent stem cell transplant (ZA 23 [25%], dmab 15 [17%]). Additionally, more ZA pts had stage I tumors at diagnosis (ZA 13 [14%], dmab 9 [10%]) and better performance status (ECOG = 0; ZA 30 [32%], dmab 21 [24%]). Study discontinuations due to consent withdrawal or lost to follow-up were also higher in the ZA group (ZA 17 [18%], dmab 11 [13%]) and occurred earlier in the ZA arm (ZA 59%, dmab 45% within 9 months of randomization). Conclusions: In this SRE study of dmab vs ZA, pts were stratified by baseline characteristics known to affect SRE outcomes, but not by prognostic factors or concurrent anticancer therapy that may impact survival in MM. OS results in the MM cohort are difficult to interpret due to small sample size and imbalances in baseline disease characteristics, stem cell transplant therapy, and consent withdrawal or loss of follow-up that favored ZA. A phase 3 trial is currently underway, which controls for these factors in pts with MM. Clinical trial information: NCT00330759.

e18507 Background: FLT3+ AML patients (pts; 20%-30% of AML pts) often have rapid post-induction relapse, highlighting the need for therapies that improve the bridge to SCT. CPX-351 is a liposomal formulation that delivers a synergistic 5:1 molar ratio of cytarabine (C) and daunorubicin (D). CPX-351 demonstrated efficacy versus 7+3 in a randomized, open-label, controlled phase III trial in pts aged 60-75 years with newly diagnosed, high-risk AML; our analysis investigated outcomes in the subset of FLT3+ pts. Methods: Pts were randomized 1:1 to induction with 1-2 cycles of CPX-351 (100 u/m2 [C 100 mg/m2 + D 44 mg/m2] on Days 1, 3, and 5 [2nd induction: Days 1 and 3]) or 7+3 (C 100 mg/m2/day x 7 days [2nd induction: x 5 days] + D 60 mg/m2on Days 1, 2, and 3 [2nd induction: Days 1 and 2]). Pts with complete remission (CR) or CR with incomplete platelet or neutrophil recovery (CRi) could receive up to 2 consolidation cycles. Results: Of the pts who had FLT3 mutations assessed and received study treatment, 22/138 (16%) pts in the CPX-351 arm and 20/136 (15%) pts in the 7+3 arm had baseline FLT3 mutations. AML subtypes in FLT3+ pts were: tAML (19%); AML after MDS with (38%) or without (10%) prior hypomethylating agents; AML after CMMoL (12%); and de novo AML with MDS karyotype (21%). In FLT3+ pts, median OS was longer with CPX-351 (10.25 mo) versus 7+3 (4.55 mo; HR = 0.57 [95% CI: 0.24, 1.33]; P= 0.093) and the rate of CR+CRi was higher (68% vs 25%). A greater number of FLT3+ pts treated with CPX-351 were able to undergo SCT (n = 10/22 [45%]; 4 pts were alive as of this analysis, after a median post-SCT follow up of 692 days [range: 96-769]) compared with 7+3 (n = 2/20 [10%]; neither pt still alive). The on-study safety profile of CPX-351 in FLT3+ pts was comparable to 7+3 and consistent with the overall study population. Serious adverse events were experienced by 7 (32%) FLT3+ pts in the CPX-351 arm and 10 (50%) in the 7+3 arm. Conclusions: CPX-351 demonstrated numerical improvement in median OS in older pts with newly diagnosed, FLT3+ high-risk AML and allowed more pts to undergo SCT. The analysis was limited by small number of pts. Clinical trial information: NCT01696084.

8013 Background: The 5-year overall survival (OS) for pts with relapsed chemosensitive DLBCL with standard transplantation is approximately 40–50%. We previously piloted the addition of standard outpatient radioimmunotherapy (RIT) with 131-I tositumomab to the transplant regimen for patients with relapsed chemoresistant NHL. This phase I study demonstrated a 3 yr OS of 55% in these poor prognosis patients (JCO 23: 461–467, 2005). The current study is a follow-up phase II study in good prognosis relapsed and high risk DLBCL patients using 131-I tositumomab with BEAM (BCNU, etoposide, cytarabine, and melphalan) followed by an autologous stem cell transplant. Methods: Forty patients were accrued to the study between 2000–2005. The patients had a median age of 54 yrs (26–75) and all had a diagnosis of DLBCL. The patients had a median of two prior chemotherapies before transplant and 88% had received prior Rituximab. All patients had chemotherapy sensitive disease at the time of stem cell transplant. Following stem cell collection, all patients received a stem cell preparative regimen of 75 cGy total body dose of 131-I tositumomab (dosimetric dose day -19 and therapeutic day -12) followed by a standard BEAM transplant regimen. Autologous unpurged stem cells were infused on day 0. The median time of follow-up of the survivors is 28 months (3–68). Results: Seventy eight percent of the patients had a complete remission following the transplant. The 3 year progression free survival (PFS) is 70% (95% CI - 48 - 84%) and the 3 year OS is 81% (95% CI - 61 - 91%). The entire transplant can be delivered on an outpatient basis. No increased toxicity compared to a similar cohort receiving BEAM alone could be detected. Conclusions: The addition of 131-I tositumomab to BEAM and autologous stem cell transplant for relapsed or high-risk chemosensitive DLBCL produces a 3-yr OS of 81% without excess toxicity. This compares favorably to historical controls. This regimen is currently being tested in a phase III trial in the BMT/CTN of Rituximab/BEAM vs. 131-I tositumomab/BEAM in patients with relapsed chemosensitive DLBCL. No significant financial relationships to disclose.

The Impact

8011 Background: The addition of a monoclonal antibody to triplet induction regimens in patients (pts) with MM with intent for autologous stem cell transplant (ASCT) has resulted in higher overall and deep response rates. In this study we are investigating the impact of the addition of Elo to KRd on complete response (CR) and/or MRD-negative rates in newly diagnosed MM regardless of transplant eligibility. Methods: Pts were enrolled from four MM Research Consortium sites into this phase 2 study. All patients receive 12 cycles of Elo-KRd in 28-day cycles: Elo per standard dosing, K 20/56/70 mg/m2 days 1, 8 and 15, R 25 mg days 1-21, and dexamethasone 40 mg days 1, 8, 15, 22. ASCT eligible candidates can undergo stem cell collection after cycle 4 and then resume treatment; pts who elect to proceed to ASCT are censored for response at that time. Pts MRD(-) (<10-5) by NGS after cycles 8 (C8) and 12 (C12) proceed to Elo-Rd until progression. Patients who convert from MRD(+) to MRD(-) between C8 and C12 receive an additional 6 cycles of Elo-KRd (total 18 cycles) followed by Elo-Rd, and pts MRD(+) after C12 receive an additional 12 cycles of Elo-KRd (total 24) followed by Elo-Rd. The primary endpoint of the study is sCR and/or MRD(-) rate after C8 E-KRd. MRD status was determined by ClonoSEQ next generation sequencing (NGS, <10-5) [Adaptive Biotechnologies]. An improvement in the sCR and/or MRD(-) rate by NGS from a historical 30% to 50% at the end of C8 will be considered promising. Results: 44 pts are enrolled, 39 of whom are evaluable for response (cutoff Jan 10 2021). Median age is 62 years (range 43-81, 23% age >70) and 23 (52%) have high-risk cytogenetic abnormalities (HRCA) including 13 (30%) with >2 high-risk abnormalities (6 pts unknown cytogenetics). 34/39 (87%) have MRD trackable by clonoSEQ. The rate of sCR and/or MRD(-) by NGS at the end of C8 is 19/33 (58%), meeting the statistical threshold for establishing efficacy (2 pts censored for elective ASCT before C8 and 4 pts receiving therapy but have not reached C8). With a median follow-up of 24 months, estimated 2-year progression free survival is 87% (100% for standard risk, 79% for HRCA) and estimated 2-year overall survival is 89% (82% for HRCA). No pt who was MRD(-) by NGS after C8 has progressed, including 6 pts with HRCA. Serious adverse events occurred in 30 pts (68%). 89% experienced treatment emergent AEs, the most common (>10%) of which was pneumonia (14%). One pt had grade 5 myocardial infarction. Conclusions: Elo-KRd demonstrates tolerability consistent with known toxicities of these agents and met the primary endpoint of sCR and/or MRD(-) of >50% after 8 cycles. With longer follow-up, the study results may validate that an MRD-adaptive design for de-escalation of therapy in MM can generate deep responses while reducing treatment exposure.
