Background : Most older patients (pts) with relapsed or refractory (R/R) AML cannot tolerate intensive treatment and are not eligible for curative allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplant (alloHCT). 131I-apamistamab, an anti-CD45 radioimmunoconjugate, delivers high dose targeted radiation to hematopoietic cells, allowing for myeloablation and eradication of leukemic cells while sparing toxicity to healthy organs. 131I-apamistamab led induction and conditioning can thus provide these pts with access to alloHCT. Methods: The SIERRA trial (NCT02665065) is a multi-center, randomized, controlled Phase 3 study comparing the rate of durable complete remission (dCR) lasting >6 months (mos) after complete remission with/without platelet recovery (CR/CRp) between two groups: 131I-apamistamab led induction and conditioning followed by alloHCT vs physician's choice of conventional care (CC). Pts were randomized (1:1) to CC or 131I-apamistamab with fludarabine and total body irradiation (2 Gy) followed by alloHCT. CR/CRp assessment was 28-56 days post alloHCT or 28-42 days post initiation of therapy on the CC group. Pts in the CC group not achieving leukemia-free state could crossover (CO) to 131I-apamistamab. Here we report the results of a post hoc analysis to determine if the presence of various risk factors (i.e., Karnofsky Performance Status (KPS) <90, HCT Comorbidity Index >3, age >65, adverse-risk cytogenetics, venetoclax failure prior to randomization) influenced achievement of dCR in pts treated with 131I-apamistamab. Results: In total, 153 pts were randomized (CC, n=76; 131I-apamistamab, n=77). All pts who received the therapeutic dose of 131I-apamistamab (n=66) underwent alloHCT vs 14 (18.2%) in the CC group. Of evaluable pts, dCR rates at 6 mos were 22% in the 131I-apamistamab group vs 0% in the CC group (95% CI;12.29, 34.73; p<0.0001). A total of 19 pts (13, 131I-apamistamab group; 6, CO) achieved dCR. Table 1 shows the pt, disease, and transplant characteristics of dCR vs. non-dCR pts. Eight of the 19 pts (42.1%) had primary induction failure and the median time to randomization from diagnosis was 5.4 mos. Approximately 50% of pts (9/19) had adverse-risk cytogenetics. Over 35% (7/19) of the pts had failed prior venetoclax and the median number of prior treatments was 3 (range 1-5). A total of 10/19 (52%) pts had KPS of <90% and a comorbidity index of >3. There was no difference in the rate of dCR when stratifying by number of risk factors for a given pt (0 to 5) with 27% for pts with 0-1 risk factors, 14% for pts with 2-3 risk factors, and 11% for pts with 4-5 risk factors (p=0.251). Conclusion: Pts with R/R AML who have multiple risk factors such as adverse risk cytogenetics, age >65, venetoclax failure, high comorbidity index or poor KPS are typically not considered for alloHCT due to high transplant-related mortality and post-transplant relapse rates. 131I-apamistamab was effective in achieving durable responses in R/R AML pts irrespective of the presence of multiple risk factors and successfully enabled alloHCT in such pts due to its targeted mechanism of action.

7006 Background: Older adult patients (pts) with Philadelphia-chromosome-negative (Ph-) acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) have poor survival with chemotherapy. The α-CD22 Ab-drug conjugate inotuzumab ozogamicin (InO) and α-CD19/CD3 T-cell engager blinatumomab (blina) were each superior to chemotherapy in Phase III studies in relapsed/refractory B-ALL. Because InO induces high CR rates and blina can induce durable remissions in low burden disease, we conducted a Phase II trial of induction InO then blina for older adults with newly-diagnosed (ND), Ph-, B-ALL. Methods: Eligible were pts ≥60 years old with ND, Ph-, CD22+ (≥20% of blasts) B-ALL without plan for allogeneic HCT (alloHCT). Pts with CNS leukemia or liver disease were excluded. Induction IA was InO 0.8 mg/m 2 day (d) 1, 0.5 mg/m 2 d8, d15 IV on a 21d cycle. Pts with adequate cytoreduction (marrow blasts by ≥50% or cellularity ≤20%) after IA went to IB if in CR/CRi (InO 0.5 mg/m 2 d1, d8, d15 IV; 28d cycle) or IC if no CR/CRi (InO 0.8 mg/m 2 on d1 and 0.5 mg/m 2 on d8 and d15 IV; 28d cycle). Those without cytoreduction to IA started course II blina. Pts without events in IA/B/C received course II blina CIV (9 mcg/d x 7d then 28 mcg/d x 21d; 14d break; 28 mcg/d x28d). Pts with CR/CRi to InO received 2 more 28d cycles of blina, others received 3 more. CNS prophylaxis was methotrexate 15 mg intrathecal x 8. The primary endpoint was 1-yr event-free survival (EFS) with a lower limit of a 90% CI for 1-yr EFS >10% defined as success. EFS was the time from therapy start to failure to achieve CR/CRh/CRi by end Course II, progression, relapse, or death, whichever occurred first. Results: Thirty-three eligible pts were treated (1 ineligible, 2 nd malignancy). The median age was 71 years (range 60-84). Median WBC count was 3,200/mcl (range 6-38,000). Median CD22 expression was 92% (range 21-100%). Eight pts had therapy-related ALL. The cumulative CR rates through Course IA/B/C and Course II were 85% and 97%, respectively (Table). With median follow up of 22 mo, the 1-yr EFS was 75% (95% CI 61-92%). The 2-sided 90% CI was 63-89% for 1-yr EFS with lower bound above 10% indicating regimen success. Twelve pts had events: 9 relapses, 2 deaths in remission (1 after alloHCT), and 1 death without remission from respiratory failure with sinusoidal occlusion syndrome of liver. The 1-yr OS was 84% (95% CI 72-98%). Nine pts have died, 6 after relapse. Conclusions: InO induction then blina consolidation is highly active for ND, Ph-, CD22+ B-ALL. The regimen is an option for older adults and a comparator regimen for future studies. Support: U10CA180821, U10CA180882, U10CA180820 https://acknowledgments.alliancefound.org .

Abstract Background: Several targeted therapies have been recently approved as treatment options for acute myeloid leukemia (AML), however, complete remissions (CR) in relapsed/refractory (R/R) patients remain low. Due to suboptimal responses to standard therapies, most of these patients do not receive an allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplant (HCT). In addition, AML patients ≥55 years have poor tolerance and high morbidity from a myeloablative HCT. The SIERRA trial (Study of Iomab-B in Elderly Relapsed or Refractory AML) has been investigating the use of Iomab-B, an 131I-labeled anti-CD45 monoclonal antibody, to reduce relapse in patients with active, R/R AML who receive HCT as compared to Conventional Care (CC) therapies. With the recent approval of various targeted therapies like BCL-2 inhibitors (e.g., venetoclax), FLT-3 inhibitors (e.g., midostaurin and gilteritinib) and IDH inhibitors (e.g., ivosidenib), the protocol was amended to include patients refractory to these therapies. We are reporting on the success rate of engraftment and tolerability of Iomab-B among the CC patients who cross-over to receive Iomab-B and HCT after failing these agents. Methods: Approximately 150 older patients with R/R AML are to be randomized (1:1) to receive Iomab-B followed by fludarabine, total body irradiation (2 Gy) and allogeneic HCT, or to conventional care (CC). CC patients receive physician's choice of therapy, including targeted therapies, and may proceed to standard of care allogeneic HCT if they achieve CR. CC patients not achieving CR may cross over to Iomab-B-based HCT. Results: Available data for 136 patients (>90% of target enrollment; median age 65) demonstrated they had a median of 3 (range: 1-7) prior lines of AML therapies. Median marrow blast at time of study entry was 25%. Prior to enrollment, 85 (63%) patients received targeted therapies, including BCL-2 inhibitors (62%), FLT-3 inhibitors (18%), IDH inhibitors (7%) and others (13%; e.g., gemtuzumab ozogamicin). Among the 50 evaluable patients in the Iomab-B group that received HCT, all successfully engrafted after a median radiation dose delivered to marrow of 14.7 Gy (range: 4.6 - 44.6) with a median time to neutrophil and platelet engraftment of 14.5 (range: 9-28) and 18 (range: 4-58) days, respectively. Of 63 patients randomized to the CC arm and with data available, 11 (17%) achieved CR and proceeded to standard of care HCT without Iomab-B while 52 (83%) did not respond to CC therapy. Twenty-seven of 63 (43%) CC patients received targeted therapy, of whom 21 received venetoclax with hypomethylating agents (HMA) or low-dose Cytarabine (LDAC). Seven of the 27 (26%) CC patients remission after targeted therapy and received standard of care HCT. Of the 20 patients who did not respond to targeted therapies, 11 (55%) crossed-over and received Iomab-B/HCT with a median radiation dose delivered to marrow of 18 Gy (range: 12.6 - 22.6). Median time to neutrophil and platelet engraftment was 12 (range: 10-27) and 20 (range: 15-38) days, respectively. Safety data are available for 103 transplanted patients in both groups and are presented in table. The incidence of Grade ≥3 febrile neutropenia (FN) was 37% vs 55%, sepsis 5% vs 30%, and mucositis 10% vs 20% in the Iomab-B group compared to all transplanted patients in the CC group. In patients who received targeted therapy and HCT (crossover or standard HCT), incidences of FN, sepsis and mucositis were 39%, 28% and 22%, respectively. Conclusion: SIERRA trial patients not achieving CR with recently approved targeted therapies who then crossed-over to receive HCT with Iomab-B successfully engrafted. Time to engraftment was similar to those who were randomized to receive Iomab-B and HCT. Available data suggest incidences of sepsis and mucositis are lower in the Iomab-B group.
