Clinical and biological implications of target occupancy in chronic lymphocytic leukemia treated with acalabrutinib

ABSTRACT: Inhibition of the B-cell receptor pathway, and specifically of Bruton tyrosine kinase (BTK), is a leading therapeutic strategy in chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL). Target occupancy has been measured as a pharmacodynamic parameter in clinical studies of covalent BTK inhibitors. However, the kinetics of BTK turnover, which determines occupancy, and the relationship between occupancy, pathway inhibition and clinical outcomes remains undefined. This randomized phase 2 study investigated the safety, efficacy, and pharmacodynamics of a selective BTK inhibitor acalabrutinib at 100 mg twice daily or 200 mg once daily in 48 patients with relapsed/refractory or high-risk treatment naïve CLL. Acalabrutinib was well tolerated and yielded an overall response rate (ORR) of partial response or better of 95.8% (95% CI 78.9%, 99.9%) and an estimated progression-free survival (PFS) rate at 24 months of 91.5% (95% CI 70.0%, 97.8%) with twice daily dosing and an ORR of 79.2% (95% CI 57.9%, 92.9%) and an estimated PFS rate at 24 months of 87.2% (95% CI 57.2%, 96.7%) with once daily dosing. BTK resynthesis was faster in CLL than in healthy volunteers. Twice daily dosing maintained higher BTK occupancy and achieved more potent pathway inhibition compared to once daily dosing. Additional follow-up is required to address the impact of dosing schedule and BTK occupancy on long-term clinical outcomes.

Project description:Importance: Autophagy has been identified as a resistance mechanism to BRAF and MEK inhibition in BRAF mutant melanoma. In the BAMM trial, hydroxychloroquine (HCQ) was used to inhibit autophagy in combination with dabrafenib and trametenib in BRAF mutant melanoma patients. Objective: To a) determine safety and maximal tolerated dose (MTD) of hydroxychloroquine when combined with dabrafenib and trametinib and b) determine antitumor activity of the combination. Design: Open label non-randomized phase I/II clinical trial Setting: Prospective therapeutic clinical trial conducted in 4 centers Participants: Unresectable Stage III or Stage IV BRAF mutant melanoma patients Intrevention: HCQ twice daily, dabrafenib 150 mg twice daily and trametinib 2 mg daily (D+T) Main Outcome: Primary outcomes were safety and 1-year progression-free survival (PFS) rate Results: Between December 2014 and January 2020, 50 patients were screened, 38 patients were enrolled and evaluable for toxicity and 34 patients were evaluable for 1-year PFS rate. Patient demographics were: 29% were ECOG PS 1, 47% had elevated LDH, 52% were Stage IV M1c or M1d and 53% had previously received therapy for advanced melanoma. In the phase I trial there was no dose limiting toxicity of HCQ at either 400 (n=3) or 600 (MTD) mg po bid combined with D+T. For the entire study population, the 1-year PFS rate was 41% (95% CI = ), median PFS was 11.9 months (95% CI = ), overall response rate (ORR) was 85% (95% exact CI=64-95%)and complete response rate of 41% (95% exact CI=25-59%). In a prespecificed subgroup analysis in 18 patients with elevated LDH, the ORR was 88% and median PFS was 8 months Conlusion and Relevance: The combination of HCQ, dabrafenib and trametinib was well tolerated and produced a high response rate but did not meet the prespecified criteria for success with respect to the 1-year PFS rate. In patients with elevated LDH , the response rate and PFS were encouraging. A randomized placebo controlled trial of dabrafenib and trametinib with/without HCQ in advanced BRAF mutant melanoma patients with elevated LDH and previously treated with immunotherapy is being conducted through the National Clinical Trial Network.
