Abstract Abstract 3701 Background: Waldenstrom's macroglobulinemia (WM) is an indolent B-cell non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (B-NHL) characterized by production of a monoclonal IgM paraprotein and variable CD20 expression due to the downregulation of CD20 as B cells differentiate into plasma cells. Rituximab monotherapy (R) achieves an overall response rate (ORR) of 25–50% in therapy naïve and relapsed WM and is associated with IgM flares in 25–75% of patients (pts) that potentially lead to hyperviscosity due to a rapid rise in IgM. Ofatumumab (OFA) is a fully human monoclonal anti-CD20 antibody approved for the treatment of fludarabine and alemtuzumab-refractory chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) and has demonstrated activity in indolent B-NHL. Since OFA is active in CLL, with its low CD20 expression, we initiated a phase II single-arm trial of OFA in pts with WM. We report primary endpoint data from this study. Methods: Pts (age ≥ 18 years) with WM requiring therapy by 2nd International Workshop on WM (IWWM) criteria were eligible. Cycle 1 (C1) of therapy consisted of OFA 300 mg week 1 and 1000 mg weeks 2–4 (Treatment Group A [TGA]) or OFA 300 mg week 1 and 2000 mg weeks 2–5 (TGB). Premedication included acetaminophen and antihistamine (all infusions) and glucocorticoid (infusions 1 and 2). Pts with grade 3–4 infusion-related adverse events (AEs) during weeks 1 and 2 also received glucocorticoid during weeks 3–5. Pts with stable disease (SD) or a minor response (MR) at week 16 of cycle 1 were eligible to receive a re-dosing cycle (C2) consisting of OFA 300 mg week 1 and 2000 mg weeks 2–5. The primary endpoint was ORR assessed by 3rd IWWM criteria. Toxicity was assessed according to NCI-CTCAE, v 3.0. Results: Thirty-seven pts were enrolled between March 2009 and February 2011. Median age was 63 years (range 43–85); 22 pts were male. Median IgM level was 3.11 g/dL (range 0.81–8.64); median hemoglobin (hgb) was 9.8 g/dL (range 5.3–13.2). Nine pts were treatment naïve; 28 pts had received a median of 3 prior therapies (range 1–5) including R (25 pts) and purine analog (14 pts). The first 15 pts were enrolled in TGA and the next 22 pts in TGB; pt characteristics were similar in both groups. Thirty-four pts completed C1; 1 pt withdrew after 1 dose and 2 pts received only 3 doses due to serious AEs (SAEs). Eleven pts achieved partial response (PR) and 7 achieved MR after C1 (ORR=49%; 95% CI [32%, 66%]). Twelve pts received C2, after which 4 pts improved their response (1 MR to PR, 1 SD to PR, 2 SD to MR) and 1 nonevaluable pt attained MR. After C1 and C2, the ORR was 59% (13 PR, 9 MR; 95% CI [42%, 75%]). Responses were seen in 67% (6/9) of therapy naïve pts, 57% (16/28) of relapsed pts, 52% (13/25) of pts who had prior R, 75% (9/12) of R-naïve pts, 64% (16/25) of pts with IgM < 4 g/dL and 50% (6/12) of pts with IgM ≥ 4 g/dL. ORR was 47% (7/15) in TGA and 68% (15/22) in TGB. ORR in TGA was negatively affected by prior R exposure and IgM ≥ 4 g/dL, whereas ORR in TGB was not affected by prior therapy, prior R or IgM level. Fifteen of 26 (58%) pts with hgb < 11.0 g/dL experienced ≥ 3.0 g/dL increase in hgb (range 3.0–7.1). Infusion-related events occurred with dose 1 in 30 (81%) pts and with dose 2 in 21 (57%) pts; all infusion events were grade 1–2 except 4 grade 3 events (1 rash, 1 chest pain, 1 chest discomfort, 1 back pain). Fifteen pts developed 22 infections including 8 upper respiratory tract, 4 urinary tract (UTI) and 4 sinus infections; all infections were grade 1–2 except 1 grade 3 UTI. One pt developed grade 3 febrile neutropenia. In total, there were 14 grade 3–4 AEs (all grade 3). Five pts developed 8 SAEs possibly related to OFA. One pt withdrew due to grade 3 hemolytic anemia. Two pts with baseline IgM of 6.63 and 4.75 g/dL required plasmapheresis for grade 3 renal insufficiency and hyperviscosity symptoms, respectively, with resolution of symptoms and were able to complete C1. Two pts developed IgM flare, defined as > 25% rise in IgM followed by subsequent MR or PR. Conclusions: OFA is clinically active in pts with WM, with an acceptable toxicity profile and a lower incidence (5%) of IgM flare. The ORR to OFA was 59% (TGA 47%, TGB 68%) including a 50% ORR (TGA 17%, TGB 83%) in pts with IgM ≥ 4.0 g/dL. Pts' anemia responded to OFA with 58% of pts with baseline hgb < 11.0 g/dL experiencing ≥ 3.0 g/dL increase in hgb. TGB achieved ORR > 60% in all pt groups regardless of prior therapy or baseline IgM level. A higher dose of OFA appeared to be more effective in pts previously exposed to R or with baseline IgM ≥ 4.0 g/dL. Further study of OFA in WM is warranted.

7061 Background: Glasdegib is a small molecule inhibitor of the Sonic Hedgehog pathway, and data from the single arm, lead-in cohort of a phase 1b/2 trial in myelofibrosis (MF) are shown. Methods: Patients (age ≥18 yrs) with primary/secondary MF previously-treated with ≥1 Janus Kinase inhibitor (JAKi) were enrolled and received glasdegib 100 mg QD orally in 28 day cycles. AEs and laboratory abnormalities were assessed. Key efficacy endpoints were proportion of patients with spleen volume reduction (SVR) ≥35% and ≥50% reduction in total symptom score (TSS) measured by the MPN Symptom Assessment Diary (MPN-SAD) at Week 24. Results: 21 patients were enrolled between Oct '14-Oct '15 in this ongoing study. Mean age was 69.3 yrs (range 58-83). Median duration of treatment was 85 days (22-343). 52% were refractory patients with inadequate response to prior JAKi. Baseline symptoms were mostly mild (1-4), except fatigue (>4). No patients achieved SVR ≥35%, 5 patients had some SVR (maximum 2.3-21.4% reduction from baseline), and no progressive disease prior to Day 71. At week 24, 1 patient had ≥50% reduction in TSS, but 3/21 and 4/21, respectively showed 30% and 20% TSS reduction. Of 14 patients with severe baseline symptoms (1 with ≥5, or ≥2 with ≥3), 1, 1, and 2 achieved 50%, 30%, and 20% TSS reduction, respectively at week 24. TSS, spleen-related, and constitutional symptom scores showed a trend of reduction over 24 weeks with spleen-related symptoms, inactivity, and fatigue showing greatest improvement (52%, 58%, and 36%, respectively). Dysgeusia (N=13), muscle spasms (N=12), alopecia (N=8), decreased appetite (N=7), fatigue (N=7), lipase increase (N=5), and weight decrease (N=5) occurred in ≥20% patients. None, except 1 episode of fatigue, were considered serious AEs. Glasdegib steady state PK was consistent with previous single agent data. Conclusions: Glasdegib has an acceptable toxicity profile in patients with primary/secondary MF previously treated with JAKi. Symptom responder definition for refractory patients may not be the same as for JAKi naïve patients. Patient reported symptom improvement may be a more sensitive indicator of treatment benefit vs SVR. Further study of glasdegib may be warranted. Clinical Trial Information: NCT02226172.
