An open-label, single-arm phase 2 trial of valemetostat for relapsed or refractory adult T-cell leukemia/lymphoma.

ABSTRACT: Adult T-cell leukemia/lymphoma (ATL) is an aggressive non-Hodgkin lymphoma with poor prognosis and few treatment options for patients with relapsed, recurrent, or refractory disease. We evaluated the efficacy and safety of valemetostat, a potent enhancer of zeste homolog 2 (EZH2) and EZH1 inhibitor, in treating relapsed or refractory (R/R) ATL. This multicenter phase 2 trial enrolled patients with R/R aggressive ATL (acute, lymphoma, unfavorable chronic type). Patients received valemetostat 200 mg/day orally until progressive disease or unacceptable toxicity. The primary end point was overall response rate (ORR) centrally assessed by an independent efficacy assessment committee (IEAC). Secondary end points included best response in disease compartments, duration of response (DOR), pharmacokinetics, and safety. Twenty-five patients (median age, 69.0 years) with a median of 3 prior lines of therapy were enrolled; 24 had prior mogamulizumab treatment. The primary end point was met with a centrally reviewed ORR of 48.0% (90% confidence interval [CI], 30.5-65.9), including 5 complete and 7 partial remissions. Patients pretreated with mogamulizumab had an ORR of 45.8% (4 complete and 7 partial remissions). IEAC-assessed median DOR was not reached (NR) (95% CI, 1.87 to NR; months). Treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs) were manageable. TEAEs that occurred in ≥20% of patients included thrombocytopenia, anemia, alopecia, dysgeusia, neutropenia, lymphopenia, leukopenia, decreased appetite, and pyrexia. Grade ≥3 TEAEs included thrombocytopenia, anemia, lymphopenia, leukopenia, and neutropenia. Valemetostat demonstrated promising efficacy and tolerability in heavily pretreated patients, warranting further investigation in treating R/R ATL. This trial was registered at www.clinicaltrials.gov as #NCT04102150.

Project description:BackgroundActivating mutations of EZH2, an epigenetic regulator, are present in approximately 20% of patients with follicular lymphoma. We investigated the activity and safety of tazemetostat, a first-in-class, oral EZH2 inhibitor, in patients with follicular lymphoma.MethodsThis study was an open-label, single-arm, phase 2 trial done at 38 clinics or hospitals in France, the UK, Australia, Canada, Poland, Italy, Ukraine, Germany, and the USA. Eligible patients were adults (≥18 years) with histologically confirmed follicular lymphoma (grade 1, 2, 3a, or 3b) that had relapsed or was refractory to two or more systemic therapies, had an Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance status of 0-2, and had sufficient tumour tissue for central testing of EZH2 mutation status. Patients were categorised by EZH2 status: mutant (EZH2mut) or wild-type (EZH2WT). Patients received 800 mg of tazemetostat orally twice per day in continuous 28-day cycles. The primary endpoint was objective response rate based on the 2007 International Working Group criteria for non-Hodgkin lymphoma, assessed by an independent radiology committee. Activity and safety analyses were done in patients who received one dose or more of tazemetostat. This study is registered with ClinicalTrials.gov, NCT01897571, and follow-up is ongoing.FindingsBetween July 9, 2015, and May 24, 2019, 99 patients (45 in the EZH2mut cohort and 54 in the EZH2WT cohort) were enrolled in the study. At data cutoff for the analysis (Aug 9, 2019), the median follow-up was 22·0 months (IQR 12·0-26·7) for the EZH2mut cohort and 35·9 months (24·9-40·5) for the EZH2WT cohort. The objective response rate was 69% (95% CI 53-82; 31 of 45 patients) in the EZH2mut cohort and 35% (23-49; 19 of 54 patients) in the EZH2WT cohort. Median duration of response was 10·9 months (95% CI 7·2-not estimable [NE]) in the EZH2mut cohort and 13·0 months (5·6-NE) in the EZH2WT cohort; median progression-free survival was 13·8 months (10·7-22·0) and 11·1 months (3·7-14·6). Among all 99 patients, treatment-related grade 3 or worse adverse events included thrombocytopenia (three [3%]), neutropenia (three [3%]), and anaemia (two [2%]). Serious treatment-related adverse events were reported in four (4%) of 99 patients. There were no treatment-related deaths.InterpretationTazemetostat monotherapy showed clinically meaningful, durable responses and was generally well tolerated in heavily pretreated patients with relapsed or refractory follicular lymphoma. Tazemetostat is a novel treatment for patients with follicular lymphoma.FundingEpizyme.

Project description:The prognosis of patients with relapsed Hodgkin's lymphoma, especially those who relapse after stem-cell transplantation, is poor, and the development of new agents for this patient population is an unmet medical need. We tested the safety and efficacy of mocetinostat, an oral isotype-selective histone deacetylase inhibitor, in patients with relapsed classical Hodgkin's lymphoma.Patients with relapsed or refractory classical Hodgkin's lymphoma aged 18 years or older were treated with mocetinostat administered orally three times per week, in 28-day cycles. Two doses were assessed (85 mg and 110 mg). Patients were treated until disease progression or prohibitive toxicity. The primary outcome was disease control rate, defined as complete response, partial response, or stable disease (for at least six cycles), analysed by intention to treat. This trial has been completed and is registered with ClinicalTrials.gov, number NCT00358982.51 patients were enrolled. Initially, 23 patients were enrolled in the 110 mg cohort. Subsequently, because toxicity-related dose reductions were necessary in the 110 mg cohort, we treated 28 additional patients with a dose of 85 mg. On the basis of intent-to-treat analysis, the disease control rate was 35% (eight of 23 patients) in the 110 mg group and 25% (seven of 28) in the 85 mg group. 12 patients (24%) discontinued treatment because of adverse events, nine (32%) in the 85 mg cohort and three (13%) in the 110 mg cohort. The most frequent treatment-related grade 3 and 4 adverse events were neutropenia (four patients [17%] in the 110 mg group, three [11%] in the 85 mg group); fatigue (five patients [22%] in the 110 mg group, three [11%] in the 85 mg group); and pneumonia (four patients [17%] in the 110 mg group, two [7%] in the 85 mg group). Four patients, all in the 110 mg cohort, died during the study, of which two might have been related to treatment.Mocetinostat, 85 mg three times per week, has promising single-agent clinical activity with manageable toxicity in patients with relapsed classical Hodgkin's lymphoma.MethylGene Inc, Montreal, Canada; Celgene Corporation, Summit, NJ, USA; Tufts Medical Center, Boston, MA, USA.

Project description:BackgroundNatural killer/T-cell lymphoma (NKTCL) is a disease with limited treatment options and poor outcomes. Daratumumab monotherapy demonstrated clinical activity in a single-patient case report. We present data from the primary analysis of a phase 2 study of daratumumab monotherapy in relapsed or refractory (R/R) NKTCL.MethodsThis phase 2 study with Simon's two-stage design evaluated daratumumab in patients with histologically confirmed extranodal NKTCL, nasal type, per WHO classification that was refractory to or relapsed after ≥ 1 line of chemotherapy, who were not candidates for other treatment modalities. All patients received daratumumab 16 mg/kg intravenously once weekly for Cycles 1 and 2, every other week for Cycles 3 through 6, and every 4 weeks thereafter until progression or unacceptable toxicity; all cycles were 28 days. The primary end point was objective response rate (ORR) based on blinded independent central review per Revised Criteria for Response Assessment of Hodgkin and non-Hodgkin Lymphoma (Lugano classification).ResultsIn total, 32 Asian patients received daratumumab. The ORR was 25.0% (95% confidence interval [CI] 11.5-43.4); all 8 responders had a partial response; and the median duration of response was 55.0 days (95% CI 29-339). At 10.2 months of median follow-up, median progression-free survival (PFS) was 53.0 days (95% CI 43-106); the 4-month PFS rate was 13.0%. Median overall survival (OS) was 141.0 days (95% CI 94-438); the 6-month OS rate was 42.9%. Nineteen (59.4%) patients had grade 3/4 treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs); the most common was thrombocytopenia (25.0%; n = 8). TEAEs leading to death occurred in 4 patients (death, respiratory failure, septic shock, and pneumonia); all were unrelated to daratumumab.ConclusionsIn patients with R/R NKTCL, daratumumab monotherapy was well tolerated with no new safety concerns and achieved an ORR of 25.0%. However, no patients achieved complete response, and duration of response was short. Trial registration ClinicalTrials.gov, NCT02927925. Registered 7 October 2016.

Project description:BackgroundImmune checkpoint inhibitors targeting PD-1 have shown clinical benefit in adults with cancer, but data on these drugs in children are scarce. We did a phase 1-2 study of nivolumab, a PD-1 blocking monoclonal antibody, to determine its safety, pharmacokinetics, and antitumour activity in children and young adults with recurrent or refractory non-CNS solid tumours or lymphoma.MethodsWe did a multicentre, open-label, single-arm, dose-confirmation and dose-expansion, phase 1-2 trial in 23 hospitals in the USA. Eligible patients for part A (dose-confirmation phase) of the study were aged 1-18 years with solid tumours with measurable or evaluable disease (by Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors [RECIST] version 1.1) regardless of histology. Eligible patients for part B (dose-expansion phase) were aged 1-30 years with measurable disease (by RECIST criteria) in the following disease cohorts: rhabdomyosarcoma, Ewing sarcoma, osteosarcoma, neuroblastoma, Hodgkin lymphoma, non-Hodgkin lymphoma, and melanoma. Patients in part A and were given nivolumab 3 mg/kg intravenously over 60 min on days 1 and 15 of a 28-day cycle in a rolling 6 study design with de-escalation upon dose-limiting toxicities to establish the recommended phase 2 dose. Patients in part B were given the recommended phase 2 dose. The primary outcomes were the tolerability, systemic exposure, maximum tolerated dose, and the antitumour activity of nivolumab at the adult recommended dose in children and young adults. This trial is registered with ClinicalTrials.gov, NCT02304458, with follow-up ongoing and is closed to new participants.Findings85 patients were enrolled between Feb 22, 2015, and Dec 31, 2018, and 75 patients were fully evaluable for toxicity. Median follow-up was 30 days (IQR 27-83). In part A, 13 patients were enrolled and 12 were evaluable for toxicity. There were no dose de-escalations or dose-limiting toxicities and nivolumab 3 mg/kg was confirmed as the paediatric recommended phase 2. 72 patients were enrolled in part B and 63 were evaluable for toxicity. Five (7%) patients in part B had dose-limiting toxicities. The most common overall toxicity was anaemia (35 [47%] of 75 patients; five patients had grade 3 or grade 4) and non-haematological toxicity was fatigue (28 [37%] patients; none had grade 3 or grade 4). Responses were observed in patients with lymphoma (three [30%] of ten with Hodgkin lymphoma and one [10%] of ten with non-Hodgkin lymphoma; all responders had PD-L1 expression). Objective responses were not observed in other tumour types.InterpretationNivolumab was safe and well tolerated in children and young adults and showed clinical activity in lymphoma. Nivolumab showed no significant single-agent activity in the common paediatric solid tumours. This study defines the recommended phase 2 dose and establishes a favourable safety profile for nivolumab in children and young adults, which can serve as the basis for its potential study in combinatorial regimens for childhood cancer.FundingBristol-Myers Squibb, Children's Oncology Group, National Institutes of Health, Cookies for Kids Cancer Foundation.
