Introduction: Myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) are a heterogenous group of blood disorders defined by peripheral cytopenia(s), bone marrow failure, morphological dysplasia, and risk of progression. To understand the genetic, epigenetic and biological factors associated with the initiation and progression of MDS, NHLBI created the National MDS Study (NCT02775383). This is a prospective cohort study conducted at 92 community hospitals and 29 academic centers enrolling patients undergoing diagnostic work up for suspected MDS or MDS/myeloproliferative neoplasm (MPN) overlap syndrome. Eligible patients have yet to receive any therapy directed at their cytopenias. Previously untreated cytopenic participants underwent centralized histopathology and data review at the time of enrollment for assignment into distinct subcategories: MDS, MDS/MPN overlap, AML, and Other. Targeted exon sequencing of 96 genes was performed using marrow specimens from the first 300 consecutive individuals in the study. Here we report the genetic mutations for this cohort. Methods: NovaSeq 6000 was used for deep sequencing at a mean coverage of 1,286X and mean breadth (bases covered at ≥100X) of 99.8%. Reads were aligned against build GRCh38 using BWA-MEM, and VarScan2 was used to detect SNVs and INDELS. Variants were filtered for those with an allele base quality of >25 in combination with rule-based and manual review criteria. Subjects in the Other category without an identified malignancy were considered clonal cytopenias of undetermined significance (CCUS) when a mutation or a clonal cytogenetic change was present. Fisher's exact and Wilcoxon rank sum tests in combination with Bonferroni correction were applied to compare groups. Results : A total of 350 putative nonsynonymous pathogenic variants in 36 genes with an allele frequency of >.05 were identified across 150 patients (50%). At least one variant was noted in the following proportion of individuals: 61/72 (85%) with MDS, 13/13 (100%) with MDS/MPN, 15/17 (88%) with AML, and 61/198 (31%) in the Other category, of which 48 were CCUS and 13 were other cancers. Two CCUS patients only had a cytogenetic abnormality. Table 1 shows the distribution of variants in each subcategory of patients for the most commonly mutated genes in our cohort of 300 subjects. Mutations in these genes were enriched in specific groups: SF3B1, STAG2,TP53, and ASXL1 in MDS; TET2 in MDS/MPN; and IDH2 and TP53 in AML (one-sided p<0.0012). None were enriched in the Other group. Within the CCUS subset, 21 genes were mutated, with 37 of 50 (74%) patients having a mutation in TET2, ASXL1, SRSF2, SF3B1, or DNMT3A. The heatmap presented in Figure 1 summarizes variants by subject and allele frequency. Pair-wise comparisons of baseline characteristics of subjects between MDS, MDS/MPN, AML, or CCUS groups revealed no significant differences for age or sex. The CCUS group had significantly higher hemoglobins than the MDS group with median hemoglobin levels of 11.35 and 9.40 g/dL, respectively (p<0.0084). AML had significantly lower platelets compared to all other groups (median of 53 vs. > 110x109/L , respectively, p<0.0084). All groups significantly differed in their median ANC with AML having the lowest (0.8x109/L), followed by MDS (1.5x109/L), CCUS (2.45x109/L), and MDS/MPN overlap (5.95x109/L) (p<0.0084). There was no difference in the median number of variants per patient between groups or correlation with age (rs=0.11, p=0.18). The maximum variant allele frequency (maxVAF) per patient was highest in the MDS/MPN group (median = 0.42, range = 0.38-0.91) and lowest in the CCUS group (median = 0.37, range =0.06-0.98) with the MDS/MPN group having a significantly higher maxVAF compared to the MDS and the CCUS groups (p<0.0084). The proportions of subjects with mutations was similar for those who had abnormal (92% [34/37]) and normal (91% [80/88]) cytogenetics. Conclusions: Incorporation of gene-panel sequencing in the comprehensive evaluation of 300 adult cytopenic patients identified half of the cohort with potentially pathogenic variants. Ultimately, a diagnosis of CCUS was possible in 48 of 183 subjects (26%) not diagnosed with MDS, MDS/MPN overlap syndrome, AML, other cancers or clonal cytogenetics. This study continues to serially bank samples from patients with CCUS, in addition to MDS, MDS/MPN, and ICUS, with the goal to better understand the natural history of these diseases and their progression.

Background: Mutations in isocitrate dehydrogenase 1 (IDH1) occur in ~3% of individuals with myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) and have been associated with increased transformation to acute myeloid leukemia (AML). Ivosidenib (AG-120) is an oral, potent, targeted inhibitor of the mutant isocitrate dehydrogenase 1 enzyme (mIDH1) and is approved in the US for the treatment of newly diagnosed AML with a susceptible IDH1 mutation in patients ≥75 years of age or who have comorbidities that preclude the use of intensive induction chemotherapy, and in adult patients with relapsed or refractory (R/R) AML. The first-in-human, phase 1 dose escalation and expansion study of ivosidenib (NCT02074839) enrolled adults with mIDH1 advanced hematologic malignancies, including R/R MDS, and the study is ongoing. In the initial phase of the study (DiNardo et al. N Engl J Med 2018), the 12 patients with R/R MDS received 500 mg ivosidenib once daily and were characterized as follows: 75% were male, median age was 72.5 years (range 52-78), and 42% were ≥75 years of age; median number of prior therapies was 1 (range 1-3). Adverse events (AEs) of any grade, irrespective of causality, occurring in ≥20% of the 12 patients were diarrhea, fatigue, back pain, rash (n=4 each, 33.3%), anemia, urinary tract infection, decreased appetite, hypokalemia, arthralgia, dyspnea, pruritus, and hypotension (n=3 each, 25.0%). No AEs led to permanent discontinuation of treatment. Response was assessed according to International Working Group 2006 criteria for MDS. According to investigators, five of 12 patients achieved complete remission (CR) (41.7%; 95% CI 15.2%, 72.3%); median duration of CR was not estimable for these patients (95% CI 2.8 months, not estimable). Nine of 12 patients were transfusion independent for at least 56 days during study treatment. Mutation clearance was observed in one of the 5 CR patients. Here we report the design of a new sub-study of this trial, which is being undertaken to further assess the safety, tolerability, and clinical activity of treatment with ivosidenib in patients with R/R MDS. Methods: This sub-study is evaluating the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, and clinical activity of ivosidenib. Adults with R/R MDS with an IDH1 mutation will be enrolled in the MDS sub-study. These individuals must have R/R disease after treatment with standard agents indicated for MDS. Eligible patients must have a platelet count of ≥20,000/μL, and adequate hepatic function (total bilirubin ≤1.5 × upper limit of normal [ULN]; aspartate aminotransferase, alanine aminotransferase, and alkaline phosphatase ≤3.0 × ULN) and renal function (serum creatinine ≤2.0 × ULN or creatinine clearance >40 mL/min). Additional key inclusion criteria are bone marrow blasts >5% and/or transfusion dependence. Ivosidenib is to be administered at a dose of 500 mg once daily orally on Days 1 to 28 of 28-day cycles. The addition of the MDS sub-study to this phase 1 clinical study in patients with hematological malignancies will provide additional insights into the use of ivosidenib for the treatment of mIDH1 R/R MDS.

OffLabel Disclosure: Ivosidenib (AG-120) is an IDH1 inhibitor indicated for the treatment of AML with a susceptible IDH1 mutation as detected by an FDA-approved test in: 1) adult patients with newly-diagnosed AML who are more than 75 years old or who have comorbidities that preclude use of intensive induction chemotherapy and 2) adult patients with relapsed or refractory AML. It is being evaluated in clinical trials for mutant IDH1 advanced hematologic malignancies.

Background: MM clinical trials often have stringent eligibility criteria that limit the enrollment of patients (pts) reflective of the general patient population (Shah, Clin Lymphoma Myeloma Leuk 2017). The Connect® MM Registry, a prospective observational study of pts with newly diagnosed MM (NDMM) in the US, provided the opportunity to examine differences between pts with MM who were identified as RCT-eligible vs -ineligible, to observe the generalizability of clinical trial results to real-world clinical settings. Differences in baseline characteristics, treatment, clinical outcomes, and HRQoL were examined in RCT-eligible and -ineligible pts from this registry, which represents an unselected, broad real-world population. Methods: Pts with NDMM were enrolled at 250 community, academic, and government sites. Eligible pts were ≥18 y of age with symptomatic MM diagnosed ≤2 months preenrollment per the International Myeloma Working Group (IMWG) criteria. For this analysis, pts were considered ineligible for RCT per the following key exclusion criteria previously described: absolute neutrophil count ≤1.5 × 109/L, platelet count ≤75 × 109/L, creatinine >2.5 mg/dL, AST/ALT >3 times the ULN, peripheral neuropathy grade >2; ECOG PS 3/4; history of myelodysplastic syndromes/other hematologic malignancies, or solid tumors (Shah 2017). Sites administered pt HRQoL questionnaires and provided clinical data at baseline and quarterly during follow-up until death or study discontinuation. Differences in HRQoL at baseline, changes from baseline to 1 and 2 years, and survival outcomes, adjusted for covariates via propensity score, were compared between RCT-eligible/-ineligible pts. Results: Of the 3011 pts enrolled, 2873 pts met the CRAB (hyperCalcemia, Renal failure, Anemia, and Bone disease) criteria per IMWG at enrollment. Of these, 1622 (56.5%) were identified as RCT-eligible and 1251 (43.5%) as RCT-ineligible (data cut-off February 7, 2019). Both groups were similar in median age, sex, race, and ethnicity distribution, although the RCT-ineligible group had more pts aged ≥75 y (26.3% vs 23.2%) and more pts with ECOG PS 3/4 (6.2% vs none). Overall, 34.5% of RCT-ineligible pts received a transplant vs 42.8% of RCT-eligible pts. More RCT-ineligible pts had ISS stage III disease (39.4% vs 19.8%), elevated calcium (≥11.5 mg/dL; 12.7% vs 6.8%), elevated creatinine (>2.0 mg/dL; 40.3% vs 6.5%), and low hemoglobin (<10 g/dL or >2 g/dL <LLN; 60.8% vs 40.3%). Use of triplet treatment (54.2% vs 56.2%) and alkylator (24.9% vs 20.1%) was similar between the RCT-ineligible/-eligible groups. Lenalidomide + bortezomib + dexamethasone (RVd) was the most common initial therapy, and R was the most common maintenance therapy in both groups, but fewer RCT-ineligible pts received RVd as initial therapy (23.9% vs 31.0%) and R as first maintenance regimen (18.1% vs 22.7%). Absolute baseline HRQoL scores were significantly higher, indicating better HRQoL, in RCT-eligible (115.9) vs -ineligible (111.5) pts on the Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy-Multiple Myeloma (FACT-MM) Total score (P=0.007), FACT-MM Trial Outcome Index (74.3 vs 70.3, P=0.002), and FACT-MM Subscale (37.3 vs 35.5, P=0.003). Scores were similar for EuroQol-5D Overall Index (0.73 vs 0.72, P=0.5) and Brief Pain Inventory (3.42 vs 3.43, P=0.9). Both RCT-eligible and -ineligible pts showed significant improvement in HRQoL from baseline at years 1 and 2, although the magnitude of improvement was similar between both groups (Fig. 1a and b). RCT-ineligible pts showed significantly shorter median PFS and OS vs RCT-eligible pts (Fig. 2 & 3, respectively). Conclusions: The CONNECT MM registry provided the opportunity to examine key differences between RCT-eligible and -ineligible pts. By applying common RCT eligibility criteria, a substantial proportion of MM pts (43.5%) in this real-world population may have been ineligible to participate in a RCT. RCT-ineligible pts had advanced disease, poor performance status, and poor laboratory parameters at baseline vs RCT-eligible pts, which could affect PFS and OS. These findings enhance our understanding of HRQoL among MM pts, which at present, is largely based on RCT participants. A similar magnitude of HRQoL improvement in both groups at 1 and 2 years suggests the need to evaluate RCT eligibility criteria in MM to help broaden enrollment and maximize external validity.

BACKGROUND: Historically, one in five Hodgkin Lymphoma (HL) patients treated with bleomycin develop bleomycin pulmonary toxicity (BPT), a life-threatening interstitial pneumonitis. The current treatment paradigm consists of prompt discontinuation of bleomycin, administration of corticosteroids, antibiotics, hospital admission, respiratory therapy, or intensive care. BPT represents a challenge for patients with HL as it not only impairs respiratory function, but also has negative impacts on clinical outcomes. A collection of a dozen studies suggest BPT has a mortality rate just short of 10% of patients who develop BPT. Given recent data on bleomycin omission with negative interim PET scan, we assessed changes in BPT rates and severity over the past 15 years. Overall, treatment protocol characterization and patient characteristics most responsive to BPT treatment are poorly understood. OBJECTIVES: In this study, we investigated the clinical impact and treatment strategies in patients with BPT. Our goals were to: 1) Identify HL patients in the last decades who developed BPT and identify risk factors for BPT, 2) evaluate the impact of BPT on long-term clinical outcomes, and 3) characterize patterns of treatment strategies among patients with HL who develop BPT. METHODS: A single-center, retrospective analysis was preformed using patient data from the Mayo Clinic Lymphoma Database (Rochester, MN) consisting of 1,299 patients diagnosed with HL. All patients were diagnosed between 2003-2018. Inclusion criteria included 1) newly diagnosed, biopsy proven HL, 2) upfront treatment with ABVD, 3) treatment was received at our institution. All patients were assessed for clinically relevant HL characteristics including stage of disease, presence of bulky disease, presence of B symptoms, Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status, BPT risk factors, and bleomycin treatment regimen. BPT was clinically defined as 1) Presence of pulmonary symptoms, 2) bilateral interstitial infiltrates on imaging, and 3) no evidence of infectious etiology. Patients treated in the "Early Era" (2000s) were compared to patients in the "Recent Era" (2010s). Comparison of continuous variables between BPT groups was assessed with Wilcox rank-sum test. OS and PFS were estimated via the Kaplan-Meier method. Approval of the protocol by the Mayo Clinic Institutional Review Board (IRB) was obtained and all patients were consented accordingly. RESULTS: One-hundred twenty six patients met the inclusion criteria for this study. Median follow-up for PFS and OS was 5.5 years (95%CI = 4.8-6.4) and 5.8 years (95%CI = 5.0-7.0), respectively. The 10-year OS and PFS among all patients were 85.1% (95%CI = 77.8-93.1) and 86.3% (95%CI = 80.1-93.0), respectively. Forty-seven patients (37% of all patients) met criteria for BPT. The estimated 10-year OS for BPT and non-BPT patients were 74.7% (95%CI = 61.8-90.5) and 91.7% (95%CI = 83.9-100.0), respectively. The estimated 10-year PFS for BPT and non-BPT patients were 84.7% (95%CI = 74.8-95.8) and 87.0% (95%CI = 79.1-95.8), respectively. In univariable analysis, BPT negatively impacted OS (HR=3.6, 95%CI: 1.2-10.6). However, bleomycin omission did not impact OS (HR=1.3, 95%CI=0.5-3.7). BPT-mortality was 17%. In multivariable analysis, BPT was not significantly associated with OS after adjusting for baseline characteristics (HR=3.0, 95%CI=0.9-9.9). Patients were older (median: 46 vs 33 years) and received less bleomycin (median: 107 vs 215 units) compared to non-BPT patients. BPT was most often managed with bleomycin omission with 59% of patients (74 of 126 patients) having omitted bleomycin at some point during treatment. Patients treated in the "Recent Era" (2010s) had lower BPT rates (28% vs 48%), mortality (10% vs 21%), bleomycin dose (143 vs 204 units), and bleomycin cycles (7 vs 12 cycles), yet higher prophylactic bleomycin omission (59% vs 8%) compared to "Early Era" (2000s). Patients treated in the Recent Era compared to Early Era had a reduction of BPT treatment with steroids, hospital admission, respiratory therapy, and ICU admission by 12%, 22%, 14%, 13%, respectively. CONCLUSION: Overall, our data suggests BPT continues to impact OS in HL patients treated with ABVD, however BPT treatment is decreasing as management changed in recent years.

Background: Multiple myeloma (MM) is a heterogeneous disease with varying survival outcomes depending on the presence of certain genetic abnormalities. Common abnormalities include trisomies, translocations involving the chromosome 14, and amplifications or deletions of chromosomes 1, 13, and 17. t(11;14), occurring in 15% of patients with myeloma, had been considered a standard risk abnormality, but recent data suggest inferior outcome. This is important as new therapeutic options such as the BCL-2 inhibitor venetoclax has been shown to be particularly effective in t(11;14) patients. Methods: This was a multicenter study to identify the outcomes of patients with t(11;14), using a retrospectively assembled cohort. Patients with MM diagnosed between 2005 and 2015 with t(11;14) identified on FISH performed within six months of diagnosis, and with treatment details available and if alive, a minimum of 12 months of follow up, were enrolled. Results: The current analysis includes 1216 patients; median age of 62.56 years; 58.7% male. The median follow-up from diagnosis for the entire cohort was 51.9 months; 69.1% of the patients were alive at the last follow up. ISS stage distribution included: Stage I (35.7%), Stage II (34.0%) and Stage III (15.1%), data was missing for the rest. The distribution of concurrent FISH abnormalities included: trisomies (3.5%), del 13q (13.3%), 1q amp (8.8%), and del 17p or monosomy 17 (5.8%). Initial regimen included: 27.2% had an immunomodulatory (IMiD), 45.9% had a proteasome inhibitor (PI), 17.7% had both, and 9.0% had no novel agent. The drug classes by line of therapy are shown in Table 1. An early stem cell transplant (defined as within 12 months of start of first line treatment) was used in 49.4% of patients. The median time to next treatment (TTNT) after starting initial treatment was 26.6 (95% CI: 23.9 to 29.2) months. The median overall survival (OS) from diagnosis for the entire cohort was 95.1 (95% CI: 85.9 to 105.9) months; 4-year estimates for those diagnosed from January 2005 to December 2009, and from January 2010 to December 2014 were 77.5% and 78.6%, respectively. The median OS for those with any one high risk FISH lesion (del 17p/ 1q amp) was 67.5 (55.2, 97.1) versus 101.7 (89.7, 107.3) months. Patients with early SCT (within 12 months of diagnosis) had better OS: 108.3 (103.8, 133.0) vs. 69.8 (61.5, 80.3) months. Conclusion: Patients with t(11;14) without high risk FISH abnormalities have an excellent survival. Patients receiving a PI + IMiD combination and those receiving autologous SCT as part of initial therapy had best survival. Though numbers are limited, patients in the later lines receiving newer drugs such as venetoclax and daratumumab had high response rates and durable responses.

Introduction: As previously reported, the combination of brentuximab vedotin with doxorubicin, vinblastine and dacarbazine (A+AVD) demonstrated a statistically significant improvement in modified progression free survival (modified PFS) compared with doxorubicin, bleomycin, vinblastine and dacarbazine (ABVD) in patients with newly diagnosed Stage III or IV classical HL in the phase 3 ECHELON-1 trial (NCT01712490). The benefit of A+AVD in the ITT population observed in the primary analysis was maintained at 3-years median follow-up [3-year PFS: A+AVD: 83.1% (79.9-85.9), ABVD: 76% (72.4-79.2)] and appears independent of interim PET status, disease stage, and prognostic risk factors. Here we present the efficacy and safety results of longer follow-up at a median 43.3 months. Methods: Newly diagnosed patients with Stage III or IV cHL were randomized 1:1 to receive A+AVD (n=664) or ABVD (n=670) intravenously on days 1 and 15 of each 28-day cycle for up to 6 cycles. The primary endpoint of the study was modified PFS per independent central review. The present follow-up PFS analysis is exploratory and per investigator assessment, with a cutoff date of June 17th, 2019. Patients with ongoing peripheral neuropathy (PN) at end of treatment were followed for resolution or improvement (defined as improved by ≥1 grade from worst grade as of the latest assessment) during the post-treatment follow-up period. Results: With a median follow-up of 43.3 months, the 42-month PFS per investigator for all patients was 82.4% (95% CI, 79.1-85.2) on the A+AVD arm and 76.2% (95% CI, 72.6-79.4) on the ABVD arm [overall HR 0.697 (95% CI, 0.547-0.890)]. Exploratory subgroup analyses of PET2(+) and PET2(-) patients showed a treatment effect in favor of A+AVD. The 42-month PFS in PET2(-) patients was 85.0% (95% CI, 81.6-87.7) for A+AVD and 79.6% (95% CI, 75.9-82.8) for ABVD [overall HR 0.695 (95% CI, 0.526-0.919)]; in PET2(+) patients 42-month PFS was 68.3% (95% CI, 54.5-78.7) for A+AVD and 51.5% (95% CI, 38.2-63.4) for ABVD [overall HR 0.552 (95% CI, 0.308-0.989)]. Upon continued follow-up, 81% (356/442) of patients with PN in the A+AVD arm had either complete resolution (64%, 283/442) or improvement (17%, 73/442) of their PN events compared with 83% (236/286) with either complete resolution (74%, 212/286) or improvement (8%, 24/286) in the ABVD arm. Among patients with ongoing PN after continued follow-up, the majority were Grade 1/2 events, with 89% (141/159; 59% Grade 1) and 95% (70/74; 65% Grade 1) on the A+AVD and ABVD arms, respectively. Overall survival data are not yet mature; per protocol, the final analysis will be performed after 112 deaths have occurred. Additional follow-up at an estimated median of ~4 years, including data from prespecified subgroups, will be presented. Conclusions: With a median follow-up of 43.3 months, A+AVD continues to provide a robust, durable benefit for patients with previously untreated Stage III or IV cHL compared with ABVD; the benefit is evident regardless of patient status at interim PET [PET2(+) or PET2(-)] and without the need for treatment intensification. PN continued to completely resolve or improve in patients on the A+AVD and ABVD arms. Together, these data further support the clinical advantages of A+AVD versus ABVD as treatment for patients with previously untreated Stage III or IV cHL.

Introduction: Selinexor is a novel, oral selective inhibitor of nuclear export (SINE) which forces nuclear retention and activation of tumor suppressor proteins. Selinexor plus low dose dexamethasone (Sel-dex) was recently approved in the United States based on data from the STORM study wherein, Sel-dex induced an overall response rate (ORR) of 26.2% in patients with penta-exposed, triple-class refractory multiple myeloma. The presence of high-risk cytogenetic abnormalities is known to have a poor prognosis in multiple myeloma, with transient responses. We performed post-hoc analyses to determine the outcomes in patients with relapsed/refractory myeloma treated with Sel-dex based on the baseline cytogenetic abnormalities. Methods: STORM was a phase 2b, open-label study which enrolled patients with relapsed and refractory myeloma. Selinexor 80 mg in combination with dexamethasone 20 mg was administered orally, twice weekly. The primary endpoint was ORR. For this analysis, we pooled 78 patients (48 quad-refractory and 30 penta-refractory) from STORM, part 1 and 122 patients (penta-exposed and triple class refractory) from STORM, part 2 to compare outcomes between high-risk and standard risk cytogenetics groups. High-risk cytogenetics was defined as having at least 1 of the following abnormalities by fluorescence in-situ hybridization (FISH) at baseline: del(17p), t(4;14), t(14;16), and gain(1q) in >5% of screened plasma cells. The FISH analyses were performed at a central laboratory and used to assess cytogenetic risk status. Results: Of the 200 patients, 122 (61%) had high-risk disease (del(17p): 36%, t(4;14): 18%, t(14;16): 5%, and gain(1q): 36%). The ORR in high-risk patients was 20.5% (very good partial response [VGPR)]: 5.7% and partial response [PR]: 14.8%) and the ORR was 29.5 % (complete response [CR]: 2.6%, VGPR: 3.8%, and PR: 23.1%) in standard-risk patients. The clinical benefit rate (CBR) was 35.2% in high-risk patients compared with 38.5% in standard-risk patients. Median duration of clinical benefit (DOCB) was 4.4 and 6.2 months in the high-risk and standard-risk patients respectively. Median progression-free survival (PFS) was 3.8 and 4.2 months and overall survival (OS) was 8.6 and 9.4 months in the high-risk and standard-risk patients, respectively. Efficacy by specific cytogenetic abnormality is presented in Table 1 below (Due to the small sample size (n=11), data for the t(14;16) subgroup are not presented separately). Conclusions: Sel-dex demonstrated a similar CBR in patients with high risk and standard risk disease and preserved clinical benefit in heavily pre-treated patients who had rapidly proliferative disease and high-risk cytogenetics at baseline. The benefit was maintained across cytogenetic risk subgroups with a higher ORR in the t(4;14) and gain(1q) subgroups. The DOR and OS was similar across all the subgroups. These analyses support the use of Sel-dex in patients with high-risk cytogenetics and warrant further evaluation of selinexor in combination with other anti-myeloma therapies in high-risk disease.

CMML is a lethal myeloid neoplasm with no therapies that improve its dismal prognosis. Inhibition of BET family members has been proposed as a therapeutic strategy based on preclinical data identifying BRD4 as a therapeutic target in acute myeloid leukemia. However, despite potent on-target transcriptional remodeling, early phase clinical trials have demonstrated only modest activity secondary to a variety of resistance mechanisms. In ovarian cancer BET inhibitor (BETi) treated cells, compensatory upregulation and addiction to pro-survival kinase networks have been observed. Given that over 50% of CMML cases have mutations upregulating kinase signaling, we hypothesized that BETi resistance is mediated by these networks in CMML and can be targeted therapeutically. We tested this hypothesis by performing a limited screen of kinase inhibitors alone and in combination with the IC20 of the BETi INCB54329 in 8 human leukemia cell lines. This screen revealed that the IC50 of the PIM inhibitor (PIMi) INCB53914 decreased after co-treatment with BETi in a majority of the leukemia cell lines tested. Synergy was validated chemically in U937, TF1 and SKM1 leukemia cells using other selective inhibitors of BET and PIM. We next assessed the activity of the BET-PIM combination in 14-day colony formation assays with 10 unique CMML bone marrow mononuclear cell (BM-MNCs) patient samples(Fig. 1A). These studies revealed that combination therapy significantly suppressed clonogenicity versus BMNCs treated with vehicle or single drug alone. Finally, this synergy was validated in vivo in 36 patient derived xenografts (PDX) from 3 CMML patients, as manifest by reduced leukemic burden/engraftment in CMML PDX treated with combination therapy(Fig. 1B). To explore the mechanism by which BETi and PIMi therapeutically synergize we treated U937 and SKM1 leukemia cells with INCB54329 and measured mRNA and protein levels for all PIM isoforms. Surprisingly, we identified that PIM1 was increased following treatment with INCB54329, other BETi, or a JQ1-derived PROTAC (Fig. 1C). PIM1 upregulation was also manifest in INCB54329 persistor U937 leukemia cells generated by daily BETi treatment for 6 weeks. Testing across a broader panel of leukemia cell lines revealed an inverse correlation between PIM1 induction and decrease in the IC50 of PIMi following BETi treatment, suggesting PIM1 upregulation confers sensitivity to combination therapy. Consistent with this, isogenic SKM1 leukemia cells engineered to overexpress PIM1 were resistant to INCB54329 and were more sensitive to INCB53914 versus controls cells. Recent studies have demonstrated that inhibitory miRNAs, especially those located near super-enhancers, are suppressed by BET inhibition. Given that several miRNAs are known to control PIM1 expression, we hypothesized that paradoxical PIM1 upregulation following BETi treatment was due to down-regulation of select miRNAs. To test this, we treated our leukemia cell models with broad inhibitors of miRNA activity (i.e., AGO and Dicer inhibitors) and observed a dose dependent increase in PIM1 levels similar to that seen with BET inhibition(Fig. 1Di). Further, integrating public H3K27 CHIP-seq and miRNA super enhancer datasets and using computational prediction algorithms, we identified 6 candidate miRNAs that could regulate PIM1 and were predicted to be controlled by BET inhibitors. Of these, only miR-33a levels were reduced in a dose dependent manner in SKM1 cells by BETi treatment(Fig. 1Dii). This was confirmed by genetically silencing all BET proteins, which suppressed miR-33a levels in SKM1 leukemia cells. Finally, miR-33a mimics (but not control miRNAs) abolished BETi-induced upregulation of PIM1(Fig. 1Diii). Collectively, these studies established BET and PIM inhibition as a novel and potent combination therapy for CMML that is mediated by miR-33a-dependent upregulation of PIM1(Fig. 1E).

Background: Immune thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura (iTTP) is a potentially fatal hematologic disorder characterized by thrombocytopenia, microangiopathic hemolytic anemia, and ischemic organ impairment. The incidence of iTTP is higher among African-Americans (AA), however, differences in presentation and outcomes have not been fully investigated. In a multi-center cohort of patients with iTTP from the United States Thrombotic Microangiopathy (USTMA) Consortium, we tested the hypothesis that AA race is an independent predictor of poor outcomes including iTTP related mortality and relapse. Methods: We queried data from the USTMA iTTP registry, which currently includes data from 785 individual patients from 15 institutions across the United States. Data from at least one iTTP episode are available for 734 patients. The cohort is 35.1% (N = 272) White, 58.7% (N = 455) African American, 0.4% (N=3) Asian, 1.8% (N=14) Hispanic, and 4.0 % (N=31) other/unknown race. We restricted our analyses to AA and White participants because of small numbers in the other groups. We compared presenting features and treatments using the chi-squared test and t-test for categorical and continuous variables, respectively. A relapse was defined as a recurrent iTTP episode occurring at least 30 days after last therapeutic plasma exchange. To evaluate relapse-free survival, we included only patients enrolled in the registry at their first TTP episode (144 White and 246 AA) since patients presenting with a relapse as their index episode are already confirmed to have relapsing iTTP. Kaplan Meier analysis was used to compare relapse-free survival in White and AA patients, and a Cox regression model was developed to evaluate the independent effect of race on relapse, adjusting for potential confounders including age, sex, and the use of rituximab. Results: Demographics and presenting features of 390 individuals (144 White and 246 AA) presenting with a first episode of iTTP are shown in Table 1. Presenting symptoms including fever, confusion, seizure, memory deficits, stupor, headache, stroke, chest pain, abdominal pain, fatigue, and dark urine were similar between Whites and AA except for petechiae, which were more frequently documented in Whites (28.8% vs 17.7%, p=0.011). Presenting laboratory studies were also comparable though AA had a higher rate of elevated serum troponin (50.6% vs 32.5%, p=0.003), lower hemoglobin level (8.27 ± 0.13 vs 8.81 ± 0.19, p=0.0176) and platelet count (20.3 ± 1.2 vs 26.2 ± 3.2, p=0.0432). In addition to therapeutic plasma exchange and corticosteroids, rituximab was administered to 23.7% of White patients and 22.7% of AA during their first iTTP episode (P=0.815). Median time to platelet count recovery (days of daily plasma exchange until normal platelet count for two consecutive days) was shorter in AA compared with White patients [5 (IQR 4, 10) vs. 8 (IQR 5, 14), log rank P = 0.004]. AA race remained a significant predictor of the shorter time to platelet count recovery [HR 1.44 (95% CI 1.12, 1.85), P=0.004] after adjusting for rituximab therapy [HR 0.60 (95% CI 0.0.46, 0.80), P<0.001], female sex [HR 0.95 (95% CI 0.73, 1.22), P=0.669], age [HR 0.99 (95% CI 0.99, 1.01), P=0.682], platelet count [HR 1.00 (95% CI 0.99, 1.04), P=0.820] and LDH at presentation [HR 1.00 (95% CI 1.00, 1.00), P=0.525]. Death during the first episode occurred in 8.9% of White patients and 5.5% of AA patients (P=0.206). Relapse-free survival after the first episode of iTTP was lower in AA than White patients (Figure 1). AA race was associated with the reduced relapse free survival [HR 1.79 (95% CI 1.08, 2.98), P=0.024] in a Cox regression model adjusted for age [HR 1.00 (95% CI 0.98, 1.01), P=0.683], sex [HR 0.96 (95% CI 0.60, 1.54), P=0.867], and rituximab therapy [HR 0.93 (95% CI 0.55, 1.59), P=0.806]. Conclusion: African Americans with iTTP have a higher relapse rate and shorter relapse free survival after the first episode of the disease compared with Caucasian patients, which is independent of age, sex and rituximab therapy. Contrary to our hypothesis, acute outcomes of iTTP (time to platelet count recovery and mortality) were not worse in AA patients. The factors contributing to the higher relapse rate in AA with iTTP need to be further investigated. Our findings suggest that AA patients may also benefit from closer follow up.

Introduction Histiocytic neoplasms are rare disorders of the monocyte-macrophage-dendritic cell lineage that pose significant management challenges to the clinicians. Over the last five years, there has been emerging data on the role of MAPK/ERK pathway (RAS-RAF-MEK-ERK) in their pathogenesis. In this study, we report the molecular alterations among patients with histiocytic neoplasms seen at our institution. Methods We pursued target-capture next generation sequencing (NGS) on tissue specimen of patients with various histiocytic neoplasms- Erdheim-Chester disease (ECD), Langerhans cell histiocytosis (LCH), Rosai-Dorfman disease (RDD), histiocytic sarcoma (HS), and Langerhans cell sarcoma (LCS). We used three NGS platforms, Tempus® xO (1,714 genes), Tempus® xT (596 genes), or Foundation One® CDX (324 genes). All platforms used formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded tumor tissue specimens for detection of substitutions, insertion and deletion alterations, and copy number alterations, and gene rearrangements. The Tempus assays also utilized matched blood or saliva samples for germline DNA sequencing in addition to whole-transcriptome RNA sequencing. The tumor cellularity threshold for pursuing RNA sequencing was 30% so the test was not pursued specimens for lower cellularity. Results We included 31 cases with histiocytic neoplasms in this study. The disease distribution was as follows: ECD (n=6), LCH (n=7), RDD (n=12), ECD-RDD overlap (n=3), HS (n=2), and LCS (n=1). Among the 13 patients with ECD and LCH, BRAF-V600E mutations were found in 8 (62%) cases. We found several novel DNA alterations in this study in all disease groups: ECD (BRAFV471F), LCH (MAP2K1 in-frame deletion), and RDD (frameshift mutations of DNMT3A, SMARCA4, KMT2A, and CDC73 truncation). In one LCH patient without any DNA alterations, we found MAPK1 and MAP2K1 overexpression on RNA sequencing. We also had two cases with HS, both of which were found to have KRAS exon 3 mutations. One of these cases had concomitant JAK2V617F+ myelofibrosis and the tissue specimen for HS demonstrated TET2 and SRSF2 mutations as well. Our cohort included one patient with multifocal lymph node LCS that demonstrated NRAS and TP53 mutations, who did not respond to MEK-inhibitor therapy. Alterations in epigenetic regulators (TET2, DMNT3A, KMT2A, ASXL1) were found in 5 (16%), potentially suggesting clonal hematopoiesis in a subgroup of histiocytosis. Conclusions Histiocytic neoplasms demonstrate diverse somatic oncogenic alterations. In our study, we noted several novel alterations beyond the MAPK-ERK pathway in RDD that may point toward other potentially pathogenic mechanisms for these rare disorders. In cases where the DNA sequencing does not reveal pathogenic alterations, transcriptome analysis may aid in the diagnosis and management.
