Location: Hall C
Background
Outcomes for pts with refractory aggressive NHL are poor with current therapies (Crump, ASCO 2016). Results from the interim analysis of (n=62) of ZUMA-1, the 1st multicenter trial of an anti-CD19 chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cell, axi-cel, in refractory aggressive NHL, showed an objective response rate (ORR) of 79% (complete response [CR] 52%; Blood 2016;128:LBA-6). Here we present results from the primary analysis of ZUMA-1.
Aims
Here we present results from the primary analysis of the ZUMA-1 trial.
Methods
Pts received a target dose of 2 × 106 anti-CD19 CAR T cells/kg after low- dose conditioning with cyclophosphamide and fludarabine. Eligible pts (≥18 y) had diffuse large B cell lymphoma (DLBCL), primary mediastinal B cell lymphoma (PMBCL) or transformed follicular lymphoma (TFL); an ECOG performance status (PS) 0-1; and refractory disease (progressive or stable disease as best response to last prior therapy, or relapsed ≤12 m of autologous stem cell transplant [ASCT]). The primary endpoint for this analysis was ORR in the combined DLBCL, PMBCL, and TFL population. Key secondary endpoints were duration of response (DOR), overall survival (OS), and frequency of adverse events (AEs). The primary analysis was triggered when 92 pts had at least 6 m of follow-up
Results
As of January 27, 2017, 111 pts from 22 institutions were enrolled; 101 pts (91%) received axi-cel. Median age was 58 y (range, 23-76), 67% male, 85% stage III-IV, 47% IPI 3-4, 77% refractory to ≥2nd line of therapy, and 21% relapsed ≤12 m of ASCT. Axi-cel was successfully manufactured in 110/111 (99%) pts with an average turnaround time from apheresis to the clinical site of 17 d.
Conclusion
Axi-cel significantly improved ORR in patients with refractory aggressive NHL. The CR rate was 7-fold higher compared to historical controls (Crump, ASCO 2016) and nearly half the patients had an ongoing response. Axi-cel demonstrated significant clinical benefit with a manageable safety profile in pts lacking curative treatment options.
