e18506 Background: Sapanisertib (SAP) is an oral small molecule dual mTOR complex 1 and 2 (TORC1/2) inhibitor that showed activity in lymphoid neoplasms. It blocks a feedback loop involving mTORC2 activation when TORC1 is selectively inhibited (Yun S et al, Blood 2016). SAP induces apoptosis of malignant lymphoid cells in vitro and in xenografts, with greatest effects in ALL cell lines. We aim to assess potential efficacy of SAP when used as a single agent in relapsed/refractory ALL. Methods: Adults (age ≥18) with ECOG performance status 0-2 and normal organ function (creatinine/total bilirubin <1.5 upper limit of normal) with relapsed and/or refractory ALL (B- or T-cell) were enrolled. Newly diagnosed patients (pts) unfit for aggressive treatments and BCR-ABL+ ALL were allowed if there was no suitable standard treatment. SAP was given at 3 mg orally daily for 21 days every 28 days. Dose escalation was allowed after 2 cycles. Hydroxyurea and corticosteroids were not allowed after starting SAP. The primary end point was complete remission (CR) or CR with incomplete count recovery (CRi). This is a one stage Simon design study with interim analysis after 11 pts completed treatment. Enrollment was continued until interim analysis was done. Results: A total of 16 pts were enrolled on the study with a median age of 46 years old, 56% being males. 1/16 (6%) was treatment naïve. Median number of prior therapies is 3 (range, 1-9). The mean duration on SAP was 14.7 days (range 1-22). Three pts were able to start cycle 2. Safety was evaluable in 14 pts. All 14 pts had at least one G3 AE, while 10 pts had at least one G4 AE. G3/4 related non-hematological adverse events (AE) included 3 mucositis, 1 hepatic failure, 1 sepsis, 3 hyperglycemia, 1 anorexia, 1 seizure, 1 confusion, and 1 pneumonitis. One pt had G5 AE with malignancy. G3/4 hematological AEs included 2 with lymphopenia, 1 thrombocytopenia, 3 with leukopenia, and 1 with neutropenia. No pt achieved a CR/CRi. Best response was stable disease in 2 (12.5%) pts. Five pts had progressive disease while 9 were not evaluable because of early removal. Conclusions: SAP exhibited the expected safety profile. Although several pts developed cytopenias on drug, there was no evidence of clinically meaningful single-agent activity against ALL. Analysis of paired bone marrow aspirates from this trial is being performed to assess whether mTOR was substantially inhibited at therapeutically achievable drug concentrations.
