Role of obinutuzumab exposure on clinical outcome of follicular lymphoma treated with first-line immunochemotherapy.

ABSTRACT: AIMS:Obinutuzumab (G) is a humanized type II, Fc-glycoengineered anti-CD20 monoclonal antibody used in various indications, including patients with previously untreated front-line follicular lymphoma. We investigated sources of variability in G exposure and association of progression-free survival (PFS) with average concentration over induction (CmeanIND ) in front-line follicular lymphoma patients treated with G plus chemotherapy (bendamustine, CHOP, or CVP) in the GALLIUM trial. METHODS:Individual exposures (CmeanIND ) were obtained from a previously established population pharmacokinetic model updated with GALLIUM data. Multivariate Cox proportional hazard models and univariate Kaplan-Meier plots investigated relationships of PFS with exposure and other potential prognostic factors. RESULTS:Overall, G exposure was lower in high body-weight patients and in males, and slightly lower in patients with high baseline tumour burden. Analysis of clinical outcomes showed that variability in G exposure did not impact PFS in G-bendamustine-treated patients; PFS was inferior in males and patients with FCGR2a/2b T232 T low-affinity receptor variant, and superior in patients with FCGR2a/2b I232T variant. In G-CHOP/CVP arms, PFS improved with increasing CmeanIND (hazard ratio = 1.74 and 0.394 at 5th and 95th percentile compared to median CmeanIND ) and was inferior in patients with high baseline tumour size and B symptoms. CONCLUSIONS:It remains unclear whether for G-CHOP/CVP patients lower G exposure is a consequence of adverse disease biology and/or resistance to chemotherapy backbone (higher clearance in nonresponder patients, as demonstrated for rituximab) rather than being the cause of poorer clinical outcome. A study with >1 dose level of G could help resolve this uncertainty.

Project description:Complete metabolic response (CMR) on PET/CT was the sole independent predictor of overall survival in the PET substudy of the phase III GALLIUM trial (NCT01332968) in first-line treatment of high-tumor-burden follicular lymphoma. The aim of this analysis was to further investigate the outcome of patients not achieving CMR. Methods: Two international experts rereviewed PET/CT scans from patients failing to achieve CMR assessed by the Independent Review Committee masked otherwise to committee results. Metabolic response category and Deauville score were assigned. Progression-free survival (PFS) was investigator-assessed with contrast-enhanced CT. Kaplan-Meier methodology was used to estimate landmark PFS and time to next treatment from end of induction by Deauville score. Patients who experienced CT-based progressive disease at the end of induction were excluded. Results: Fifty-four patients were reviewed. Six had CMR, 37 had a partial metabolic response, 2 had no metabolic response, and 9 had progressive metabolic disease. Patients were reassigned to CMR because 18F-FDG uptake was considered inflammatory (n = 2), was considered incidental neoplasia (n = 2), or was visually close to liver uptake but quantitatively lower (n = 2). There was a trend for shorter PFS and time to next treatment for patients with a Deauville score of 5 than a score of 4. High-grade mesenteric uptake at the end of induction was common, occurring in 20 patients with non-CMR, 14 of whom achieved CMR at all other sites. Only 3 of 14 (21%) patients with mesenteric uptake as the only site of disease experienced progression or death within 24 mo, whereas 4 of 6 patients (67%) with mesenteric and additional sites of 18F-FDG-avid disease experienced progression or death within 24 mo. All patients with early progression had measurable disease on contrast-enhanced CT at 18F-FDG-avid sites at the end of induction. Conclusion: After induction immunochemotherapy, CMR was assigned after reassessment in some patients, in whom increased 18F-FDG uptake was considered due to inflammation or incidental neoplasia rather than to lymphoma. Quantitative assessment to confirm the visual impression of residual uptake in lesions is suggested. Isolated mesenteric 18F-FDG uptake is likely a common false-positive finding at the end of induction and does not warrant changes in clinical management or disease surveillance unless there is measurable disease on contrast-enhanced CT or clinical suspicion of active disease.
