7039 Background: Bosutinib (BOS) is approved for patients (pts) with Philadelphia chromosome-positive chronic myeloid leukemia (CML), at a starting dose of 400 mg QD in newly diagnosed pts in chronic phase (CP). This analysis evaluated the impact dose reduction has on the outcomes of BOS and imatinib (IMA) in pts with CP CML. Methods: In the open-label BFORE trial, 536 pts with newly diagnosed CP CML were randomized to receive 400 mg QD BOS (N = 268) or IMA (N = 268; 3 untreated). Dose could be reduced to 300 mg QD for toxicity. Following sponsor approval, dose reduction to BOS 200 mg QD was permitted for 4 wks maximum; after this time, dose escalation or treatment discontinuation was required. Maintenance of response after dose reduction was defined as having a response > 6 mo after the first reduction. Database lock: June 12, 2020, 5 y after the last pt enrolled. Results: In the BOS arm, dose reduction to 300 (without further reduction) or 200 mg QD was seen in 82 (31%) and 33 (12%) pts, and median time to dose reduction was 85 and 205 d. In the IMA arm, 50 (19%) pts had a dose reduction to 300 mg QD, and median time to dose reduction was 92 d. Most common (≥2% of pts) treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs) leading to dose reduction were increased alanine aminotransferase (8%), thrombocytopenia (7%), diarrhea (7%), increased lipase (6%), increased aspartate aminotransferase (4%), nausea (4%), neutropenia (3%), rash (3%) and abdominal pain (2%) with BOS, and neutropenia (4%) with IMA. Of the pts who remained on 400 mg QD BOS (n = 153) or IMA (n = 214), respectively, 120 (78%) and 139 (65%) achieved major molecular response (MMR). Among pts who had a BOS dose reduction to 300 mg QD, 51/82 (62%) had MMR > 6 mo after dose reduction: 14 (17%) maintained MMR before and after dose reduction and 37 (45%) achieved MMR for the first time after dose reduction. Seven (9%) pts had MMR before dose reduction but discontinued treatment before the next > 6 mo assessment. In the IMA arm, 32/50 (64%) pts had MMR > 6 mo after dose reduction: 9 (18%) maintained MMR before and after dose reduction and 23 (46%) achieved MMR for the first time after dose reduction. One (2%) pt had MMR before dose reduction but discontinued treatment before the next > 6 mo assessment and 1 (2%) pt lost a previously attained MMR after dose reduction. Among pts who had a BOS dose reduction to 200 mg QD, 12/33 (36%) had MMR > 6 mo after dose reduction: 7 (21%) maintained MMR before and after dose reduction and 5 (15%) achieved MMR for the first time after dose reduction. Six (18%) pts had MMR before dose reduction but discontinued treatment before the next > 6 mo assessment. Similar trends were seen for complete cytogenetic response. Conclusions: Management of TEAEs through BOS or IMA dose reduction enabled pts to continue treatment, with a substantial number of pts achieving MMR for the first time after dose reduction.

Efficacy And Safety

7037 Background: Bosutinib (BOS) is approved for the treatment (Tx) of Philadelphia chromosome–positive (Ph+) chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) resistant/intolerant to prior therapy and newly diagnosed Ph+ chronic phase (CP) CML. Body mass index (BMI) was shown to influence Tx response with front-line dasatinib vs imatinib (IMA). We report the efficacy and safety of BOS and IMA by BMI in patients (pts) with newly diagnosed CP CML. Methods: In the open-label BFORE trial, pts were randomized to receive 400 mg once daily BOS or IMA. Outcomes were assessed according to baseline BMI ≥25 or = 25 kg/m2. This post hoc analysis was based on the final 5-y analysis (database lock: June 12, 2020). Results: In the BOS and IMA arms, respectively, 149 (56.4%) vs 115 (43.6%) pts and 145 (54.3%) vs 122 (45.7%) pts had BMI ≥25 vs = 25. In both the BOS and IMA arms, median Tx duration and time on study was 55 mo for pts with BMI ≥25 or = 25; respective median dose intensity was 394 vs 393 mg/d and 400 vs 400 mg/d. Molecular response (MR) rates are shown in the table. Cumulative incidence of major MR was similar in pts with ≥25 vs = 25 receiving BOS (HR 0.99; 95% CI 0.74−1.31) or IMA (HR 1.09; 95% CI 0.81−1.47). Event-free survival (EFS) and overall survival (OS) rates at 60 mo are shown in the table. Most common reasons for Tx discontinuation were adverse events (AEs) (BOS 28.2 vs 20.0%; IMA 13.3 vs 10.7%) and lack of efficacy (BOS 5.4 vs 5.2%; IMA 16.1 vs 19.8%). In pts with BMI ≥25 vs = 25, dose reductions and interruptions due to Tx-emergent AEs (TEAEs) occurred in 43.6 % vs 46.2% and 66.4% vs 69.7% of pts with BOS and 24.5% vs 24.6% and 40.6% vs 50.8% with IMA. Any grade TEAEs in ≥30% of pts with BMI ≥25 vs = 25 were diarrhea (73.8 vs 73.1%), nausea (40.9 vs 31.9%), thrombocytopenia (30.9 vs 41.2%), increased alanine (37.6 vs 28.6%) and aspartate aminotransferase (30.2 vs 20.2%) with BOS and diarrhea (49.0 vs 29.5%), nausea (46.2 vs 37.7%), muscle spasms (33.6 vs 26.2%), neutropenia (14.7 vs 32.0%) and thrombocytopenia (10.5% vs 30.3%) with IMA. Conclusions: Efficacy of BOS was consistent in pts with BMI ≥25 or = 25; however, with IMA a low (vs high) BMI appeared to be associated with worse survival outcomes. Differences in certain TEAEs were observed between BMI subgroups in both treatment arms. Clinical trial information: NCT02130557. [Table: see text]

Abstract Abstract 454 Efficacy of Frontline Nilotinib Therapy in Patients (Pts) with Newly Diagnosed Philadelphia Chromosome (Ph)-Positive Chronic Myeloid Leukemia in Early Chronic Phase (CML-CP) Alfonso Quintás-Cardama, Hagop Kantarjian, Raja Luthra, Susan O'Brien, Elias Jabbour, Gautam Borthakur, Farhad Ravandi, Guillermo Garcia-Manero, Stefan Faderl, Marina Konopleva, William Wierda, Elizabeth Burton, Jorge Cortes 1MD Anderson Cancer Center, University of Texas, Houston, TX Background: In 2005, we initiated a phase II study of nilotinib as 1st line therapy in pts with newly diagnosed CML-CP to investigate the efficacy and safety of nilotinib as frontline therapy for pts with CML-CP. Methods: The primary objective was to estimate the proportion of pts attaining major molecular response (MMR) at 12 months (mo). Pts with untreated CML-CP within 6 mo from diagnosis were eligible and received nilotinib 400 mg twice daily. Results: 100 pts (41% female) have received for a median of 24 mo (range 1 to 72mos). Median age was 49 years (range 17–86). Median WBC, PB blasts, PB basophils, hemoglobin, and platelet count was 42.6, 0%, 2.5%, 12.3, 307, respectively. Five pts (5%) had a variant Philadelphia chromosome and 1 (1%) had deletion of derivative chromosome 9. Seventy-two (72%), 20 (20%), and 8 (8%) pts had low, intermediate, and high Sokal risk score. Among the 102 CP pts who were not in CHR at the start, 100 (98%) achieved CHR (one discontinued after 2 weeks without adverse events). Among 73 CP pts followed for at least 12 mo, 69 (95%) achieved a complete cytogenetic response (CCyR). MMR at 18 mo has been achieved in 51 (89%) pts, including 30 (52%) with a complete molecular response (CMR)(Table 1). The median time to achieve CCyR, MMR was 6 mo each. Grade 3–4 thrombocytopenia, neutropenia, and anemia occurred in 9%, 12%, and 6% pts. The most frequent non-hematologic toxicities were rash (62%), pain (57%), and elevated transaminases (45%) and bilirubin (42%). However, grade 3–4 non-hematologic adverse events (possible, probable or suspected relationship only) were rare, including: pain and increased bilirubin (4% each), elevated lipase, fatigue, and elevated transaminases (2% each), and hyperglycemia (1%). One (1%) pt experienced QTc prolongation (grade 2; QTc prolonged from 444msec to 483msec), not associated with arrhythmias and resolved after a brief treatment interruption. Forty-five (45%) pts had transient treatment interruptions (median days off-nilotinib 7 [range 1–68]) and 27 (27%) had dose reductions. Of the patients that were dose reduced, their current or last known dose was either 200mg daily (n=7), 200mg twice daily (n=14), or 400mg daily (n=6). Nineteen (19%) pts terminated nilotinib therapy due to toxicity (n=7), personal reasons or loss to follow-up (n=7), loss of MCyR (n=2), progression to BP (n=2), or death (n=1). Of the pts who discontinued therapy, 3 were tested for BCR-ABL1 mutations; 2 were found to have mutations (F359C and Y253H). The 48 mo probability of EFS (event= loss of CHR, loss of MCyR, AP/BP, or death) is 88%. The annual rate of events during the first 48 mo of follow-up was 4%, 0%, 2%, 5%, and 0% and the rate of transformation 2%, 0%, 0%, and 0%, respectively. The best response achieved on nilotinib by the 2 pts that transformed to BP was CCyR and PCyR, respectively. The overall survival at 48 mos is 96%. One pt died due to stroke, unrelated to nilotinib. No other vascular events have been observed to date. Conclusion: Nilotinib 400 mg twice daily induces CCyR in 78% of pts as early as 3 mo and MMR in 86% at 12 mo after the start of therapy, with very low rates of progression to AP/BP and a mild toxicity profile. Disclosures: No relevant conflicts of interest to declare.

Abstract Objectives: Bosutinib (BOS), an oral dual Src/Abl tyrosine kinase inhibitor for adult patients with Philadelphia chromosome−positive chronic myeloid leukemia (Ph+ CML), has a recommended starting dose of 500 mg/d. This analysis evaluates efficacy and safety following BOS dose reduction due to intolerance in patients with Ph+ CML. Methods: Data from 2 studies were analyzed: a phase 1/2 study (NCT00261846) that included patients with chronic phase (CP) CML following resistance/intolerance to imatinib (IM; CP2L) or to IM plus dasatinib and/or nilotinib (CP3L), and those with accelerated/blast phase CML or acute lymphoblastic leukemia after at least IM (advanced [ADV]); and a phase 3 study (NCT00574873) in CP CML patients treated with BOS or IM as first-line therapy (CP1L). Results: Of 570 CP2L/CP3L/ADV patients receiving BOS (median treatment duration 11 months [range: 0.03−96]), 257 (45%) experienced ≥1 dose reduction (236 patients to 400 mg/d and 95 to 300 mg/d). Median time to dose reduction to 400 and 300 mg/d was 54.5 (range: 4-1875) and 146 days (8-2166), respectively; median duration of dose reduction was 3.6 (0.03-87.7) and 4.2 months (0.03-60.5), respectively. In CP1L, 248 patients received BOS (median treatment duration: 55.4 months [0.03−76]), of whom 111 (45%) experienced ≥1 dose reduction (103 to 400 mg/d and 56 to 300 mg/d). Median time to dose reduction to 400 and 300 mg/d was 64.0 (2-1714) and 139 days (20-1778), respectively; median duration of dose reduction was 2.6 (0.03-66.1) and 8.9 months (0.03-71.2), respectively. Patients achieved anew or maintained a previously achieved complete cytogenetic response following BOS dose reduction to 400 mg/d (achieved: 29% [CP2L/CP3L/ADV], 40% [CP1L]; maintained: 13% [CP2L/CP3L/ADV], 26% [CP1L]) and to 300 mg/d (achieved: 14% [CP2L/CP3L/ADV], 18% [CP1L]; maintained: 24% [CP2L/CP3L/ADV], 45% [CP1L]; Table 1). Treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs) were generally similar in incidence, type, and severity before vs after BOS dose reduction. However, incidences of certain gastrointestinal TEAEs were lower and of similar severity following BOS dose reduction to 400 mg/d (diarrhea: 84% vs 50% [CP2L/CP3L/ADV], 70% vs 41% [CP1L]; nausea: 45% vs 23% [CP2L/CP3L/ADV], 34% vs 21% [CP1L]; vomiting: 33% vs 21% [CP2L/CP3L/ADV], 28% vs 22% [CP1L]) or to 300 mg/d (diarrhea: 85% vs 31% [CP2L/CP3L/ADV], 75% vs 38% [CP1L]; nausea: 43% vs 14% [CP2L/CP3L/ADV], 43% vs 21% [CP1L]; vomiting: 34% vs 11% [CP2L/CP3L/ADV], 34% vs 18% [CP1L]). Conclusions: CP2L/CP3L/ADV and CP1L CML patients who required BOS dose reduction due to AEs were still able to achieve or maintain cytogenetic responses and appeared to experience fewer gastrointestinal AEs.

AbstractIn the ENESTnd study, with ≥10 years follow-up in patients with newly diagnosed chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) in chronic phase, nilotinib demonstrated higher cumulative molecular response rates, lower rates of disease progression and CML-related death, and increased eligibility for treatment-free remission (TFR). Cumulative 10-year rates of MMR and MR4.5 were higher with nilotinib (300 mg twice daily [BID], 77.7% and 61.0%, respectively; 400 mg BID, 79.7% and 61.2%, respectively) than with imatinib (400 mg once daily [QD], 62.5% and 39.2%, respectively). Cumulative rates of TFR eligibility at 10 years were higher with nilotinib (300 mg BID, 48.6%; 400 mg BID, 47.3%) vs imatinib (29.7%). Estimated 10-year overall survival rates in nilotinib and imatinib arms were 87.6%, 90.3%, and 88.3%, respectively. Overall frequency of adverse events was similar with nilotinib and imatinib. By 10 years, higher cumulative rates of cardiovascular events were reported with nilotinib (300 mg BID, 16.5%; 400 mg BID, 23.5%) vs imatinib (3.6%), including in Framingham low-risk patients. Overall efficacy and safety results support the use of nilotinib 300 mg BID as frontline therapy for optimal long-term outcomes, especially in patients aiming for TFR. The benefit-risk profile in context of individual treatment goals should be carefully assessed.

Introduction: Chronic Myeloid Leukemia is a hematological malignancy driving from myeloproliferative process. It is typified by the presence of the Philadelphia chromosome manifesting in certain distinct complications, including pathological fracture. Pathological fracture is recognized as an extramedullary disease that occurs as a result of transformation of CML into blast crisis phase.Case Presentation: Here, we report a case of pediatric male CML. After being failed with imatinib therapy, he turned to nilotinib and was unable to achieve a major molecular response. He presented with high blast count and pain in the left arm. He was diagnosed with pathological fracture and blast crisis phase CML. Taken the young age and displacement of fracture into consideration, he was conservatively treated by a combination of immobilization and a higher dose of targeted therapy, nilotinib. The 2-month evaluation revealed clinical union and reduction of blast cells.Conclusions: Regarding the minimal displacement and age presentation, pathological fracture in pediatric CML requires non-invasive treatment and optimization of antileukemic therapy.
