Abstract Introduction According to population-based Surveillance, Epidemiology and End Results (SEER) cancer registry data, approximately 40% of adolescents and young adults (AYA) with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) in the United States (U.S.) are Hispanic and 7% are Black and both Hispanic and Black patients have significantly inferior outcomes relative to non-Hispanic Whites (NHW). CALGB 10403, a prospective Phase II clinical trial conducted by the U.S. Intergroup, demonstrated the feasibility of delivering a pediatric-inspired ALL regimen to newly diagnosed AYA ALL patients and found this approach to be superior to historical adult regimens (Stock et al. Blood 2019). In the current analysis, we evaluate enrollment patterns of Hispanic and Black AYAs on CALGB 10403 and compare survival relative to SEER estimates. Methods Demographics on AYAs (18-40 yrs) enrolled on CALGB 10403 (N=295 from 2007-2012) were supplemented with patient-reported education and socioeconomic status (SES) information. Data from the North American Association of Cancer Registries (NAACCR; 2013-2017) were used to evaluate U.S. country-wide ALL incidence (20-49 yrs) overall and among Hispanics, reported per U.S. state. SEER registries (2008-2012) provided racial/ethnic distribution and overall survival (OS) of AYA ALL (15-39 yrs). The distribution of OS was estimated using the Kaplan-Meier method and compared across racial/ethnic groups using log-rank tests. Results Relative to the U.S. AYA ALL population, CALGB 10403 included proportionally fewer Hispanics (41.7% vs. 16.3%, P < 0.001); the distribution of blacks was similar (6.4% vs. 8.5%, P = 0.174). Demographics and ALL characteristics among CALGB 10403 enrollees demonstrated no significant differences in age, sex, cytogenetics, or BMI by race/ethnicity; however, Black AYAs were more likely to have T-ALL, and Hispanic patients were more likely to have Ph-like B-ALL and rearrangements in CRLF2. Hispanic and Black patients reported lower household yearly income, and Black patients had less educational attainment. In order to explore reasons for disproportionately low Hispanic enrollment on CALGB 10403, we calculated the proportion of Hispanic AYAs with ALL relative to the AYA ALL incidence across U.S. states using NAACCR data and compared this with the geographical distribution of CALGB 10403 enrollments. The incidence of AYA ALL across U.S. states is represented in Fig 1A and the proportion of Hispanic AYA ALL patients in Fig 1B. The states with highest proportion of Hispanic patients included CA, TX, and NM, followed by AZ, CO, FL, and NJ. Although CALGB 10403 enrolled patients in 31 U.S. states, the trial did not open in TX or FL. The enrollments numbers were highest across the Mid-Western U.S., with only 47/295 (15.9%) of enrollments coming from the seven states with a high proportion of Hispanic AYA ALL patients (Fig 1C). The 3-yr event-free survival (EFS) and OS for the total CALGB 10403 cohort were 59.1% (53.1%, 65.75%) and 73.5% (68.1%, 79.4%), respectively. Per protocol completion of therapy was highest in Hispanics (75%), relative to Black (64%) and NHW patients (56%), P=0.049. Overall survival among CALGB 10403 participants differed significantly across race/ethnicity (Fig 2), with superior OS experienced by Hispanic patients and inferior OS by Black patients (P= 0.021). These clinical trial results differ from SEER estimates, where both Hispanic and Black patients experience worse OS relative to NHW (Fig 2). Conclusions This in-depth analysis of racial/ethnic enrollments and outcomes on CALGB 10403 uncovered findings that may translate across clinical trials beyond AYA ALL. Importantly, our data suggest that closer matching of trial site selection to geographical racial/ethnic disease incidence may improve minority enrollments on multi-center clinical trials. Relative to NHW, Hispanic patients had superior survival despite having higher rates of Ph-like ALL, indicating that clinical trial participation may mitigate racial/ethnic survival disparities seen in population-based data. Finally, we saw no improvement in trial outcomes among Black AYAs; a deeper understanding of the biological leukemia underpinnings and barriers to successful outcomes would aid future efforts at improving survival across racial/ethnic groups.

Abstract Background: GILT is an oral potent selective FLT3 kinase inhibitor approved for marketing for the treatment (Tx) of patients (pts) with relapsed/refractory FLT3 mutated (FLT3m) AML but efficacy in older ND FLT3m AML pts is unknown. Furthermore, FLT3m can be present as a dominant or subclone and impact of FLT3 inhibitor therapy in this setting is uncertain. Here we report the results of a Phase 2/1b sub-study of the Beat AML Master Trial to assess the efficacy of GILT monotherapy (GILTm) in ND FLT3m AML pts aged ≥60 years with high and low VAF and the subsequent response-driven addition of DEC Tx. (ClinicalTrials.gov NCT03013998) Methods: The study was an open-label multicenter (15 sites), 3-outcome, 2-stage Phase 2 design that assigned pts to either Dominant FLT3/Group 1 (GP1) or Non-Dominant FLT3/Group 2 (GP2) as shown in Figure 1. Key eligibility criteria included ND FLT3m AML pts with high and low VAF and/or ITD ratio, aged ≥60 years, and ECOG performance status 0-2. In the Phase 2 study, all pts received GILTm 120 mg/day on days 1 - 28. Pts without CR/CRi after cycle 2 were transferred to the Phase 1b study to receive GILT + DEC (Figure 1). Phase 1b study utilized a standard 3+3 design to evaluate the safety/tolerability of concurrent GILT + DEC. Pts received GILT (dose level 1 [DL1] = 80 mg/day or dose level 2 [DL2] = 120 mg/day on days 1-28) + DEC 20 mg/m 2 IV on days 1-10 or 1-5 every 28 days. Primary endpoint was CR+CRi rate (Phase 2). Response was assessed using modified 2017 ELN AML criteria. The non-dominant GP2 was stopped for futility, GP1 was stopped early to modify trial to include venetoclax. Results: Phase 2 - Between 9/10/2018 to 2/11/2020, 19 / 20 enrolled pts (GP1: n = 9; GP2: n = 10) received GILTm and were included in analyses. Baseline pt characteristics are shown in Table 1. Median (range) time on GILTm was 3 cycles (1 - 18) in GP1 and 1 cycle (1 - 9) in GP2. Most common reasons for discontinuing Tx were Tx failure (TF; 44%) and relapse (33%) in GP1 and TF (70%) and disease progression (PD; 20%) in GP2. Overall CR+CRi was achieved in 4 pts (44%) in GP1 and 1 pt (10%) in GP2. Response duration are shown in Table 2. After median follow-up of 14.3 months (mos) and 19 mos in GP1 and GP2, respectively, 1-year OS was 56% and 76%. Most common Grade ≥3 adverse events (AEs) were febrile neutropenia and colitis (each 25%) in GP1; anemia and low platelet count in GP2 (each 30%). Overall, 7 pts had 15 serious AEs (SAEs) and all SAEs occurred in GP1 pts; most common SAE was colitis (25%) and 1 pt (13%) had a Tx-related Grade 3 SAE of tumor lysis syndrome. In GP2, 1 pt (10%) had Tx-related Grade 2 AE of differentiation syndrome. In GP1, 2 pts died within 60 days of Tx and none in GP2. Phase1b - After up to 2 cycles of GILTm, 12 pts with no CR/CRi (GP1: n = 4; GP2: n = 8) were transferred to receive GILT + DEC (Figure 1). At the time of this report, 1 pt with CRh remained on Tx. Median total time on Tx (including GILTm) was 4 cycles and median time on GILT + DEC Tx was 3 cycles (Table 2). Most common reasons for discontinuing Tx were PD (33%) and TF (25%); and 2 pts (17%) stopped Tx due to an AE. Pts were treated with DL1 GILT + DEC (n = 3), then DL2 GILT + DEC (n = 9); only 1 pt had dose-limiting toxicity (DLT) at DL2 (Grade 3 hyperbilirubinemia and pneumonitis requiring steroid therapy), hence, DL2 GILT + DEC was considered the MTD. CR+CRi rate was 25% in 3 pts, all at DL2 (Table 2). After a median follow-up of 17.8 mos, the 1-year OS from start of GILT + DEC Tx was 57%. Most common Grade ≥3 Tx-related AEs were anemia, febrile neutropenia and low WBC count (each 22%). Overall, 6 pts had 12 SAEs; 1 pt with SAE of Grade 4 sepsis died. Three GILT-related SAEs occurred in 1 pt - Grade 3 hyperbilirubinemia, and pneumonitis and Grade 1 transaminases increased. One pt died within 30 days and a second within 60 days of Tx. No difference was observed in GILT pharmacokinetics (PK) with or without DEC, however steady state Ctrough values were 1.4 to 2.3-fold greater than in relapsed/refractory AML pts (Admiral trial). Conclusions: In ND pts ≥60 years old with dominant FLT3 AML, GILTm induced a high 44% CR+CRi rate and long median OS (21.7 mos). Pts with non-dominant FLT3 had low 10% CR+CRi rate. GILTm was generally safe and was associated with differentiation syndrome in 1 pt. Concurrent GILT + DEC was acceptably tolerated, only 1 pt had a DLT, and the MTD was 120 mg/day GILT + DEC. A subset of pts with no CR/CRi during GILTm achieved remission with addition of DEC. Based on these results, a triple combination Tx study with venetoclax is currently enrolling. Figure 1 Figure 1.

Abstract Background: In vitro studies and emerging clinical data suggest that inhibition of spleen tyrosine kinase may have an antileukemic effect in human AML. Pts with AML and TP53 mutations (TP53m) are commonly associated with older age (≥60 years) and complex karyotype (CK) and respond poorly to standard 7 + 3 induction (IND) chemotherapy with <10% 1-year overall survival (OS). DEC has been reported to improve response in TP53m AML. Here, we report the results of a Phase 2 sub-study of the Beat AML Master Trial that assessed the efficacy of ENTO + DEC combination treatment (Tx) in ND AML patients (pts) with TP53m or CK aged ≥60 years. [ClinicalTrials.gov: NCT03013998] Methods: This multicenter (13 sites), open-label, Phase 2 combination Tx study utilized Simon's 2-stage Phase 2 design and enrolled AML pts with TP53m (identified molecularly) ± CK (Cohort A) or CK (≥3 metaphase abnormalities) without TP53m (Cohort B). Pts initially received 5 days of ENTO lead-in (which was later discontinued), followed by ENTO + DEC and those who achieved CR/CRh/CRi/MLFS with up to 3 cycles of IND proceeded to consolidation (CON) Tx for up to 11 cycles (Figure 1). Pts with CRi/MLFS after IND were allowed up to 6 cycles (IND + CON) to achieve CR/CRh or stayed on Tx if they got clinical benefit or went off Tx. CON was followed by maintenance (MTN) Tx for up to 2 years from start of study Tx. Pts were eligible if aged ≥60 years, ND, and had ECOG performance status 0 - 2. Pts received ENTO 400 mg orally twice daily for 5 days during ENTO lead-in, and then every 28 days during IND, CON, and MTN + DEC 20 mg/m 2 IV days 1-10 (IND) or days 1-5 (CON) every 28 days. Response was assessed using modified 2017 ELN AML criteria. The primary endpoint was composite complete remission (CCR) rate (CR + CRh) with up to 3 cycles of IND, and CRi/MLFS that achieved CR/CRh by up to 6 cycles (IND + CON). Beyond stage 1, pt accrual to Cohort A was allowed based on pts with CRi and to Cohort B was stopped early for futility. Results: Between Oct 2017 and Feb 2020, of the 63 pts enrolled (Cohort A = 48; Cohort B = 15), pts with confirmed eligibility who started study Tx were included in the analyses (Cohort A = 45; Cohort B = 13). During lead-in, 27 pts in Cohort A and 6 pts in Cohort B received ENTOm for 5 days. All pts received ENTO + DEC except 1 pt in Cohort A who withdrew consent (WOC). Median ages of the pts were 70 years (range 60 - 84) in Cohort A and 74 years (range 65 - 86) in Cohort B. Median time (range) on Tx was 2.2 mos and 4.8 mos in Cohort A and B, respectively. Most common reasons for Tx discontinuation were adverse event (AE; 27%), Tx failure (TF; 27%) and WOC (18%) in Cohort A; TF (31%), disease progression and relapse (each 15%) in Cohort B. In each cohort, 1 pt discontinued Tx due to death from leukemia and 1 pt in Cohort A in CRh due to development of an additional genetic abnormality. Four pts (9%) in Cohort A and 1 pt (8%) in Cohort B proceeded to transplant. The CCR (CR + CRh) rates with up to 6 cycles of Tx for Cohort A and B were 13.3% and 30.8%, respectively; overall CR + CRh rates were 17.8% and 38.5% (Table 1). In Cohort A, with a median follow-up of 11.5 months, 0% were 1-year disease-free and median OS (mOS) was 6.5 months. In Cohort B, with a median follow-up of 15.1 months, 25% were 1-year disease-free and mOS was 11.5 months. Deaths within 7-, 30-, and 60-days of Tx were 0, 3 and 11 in Cohort A and 0, 0 and 2 in Cohort B. Most common treatment-related Grade ≥3 AEs in Cohort A and B were febrile neutropenia (31% and 39%) and anemia (22% and 31%) (Table 2). Overall, 83 serious AEs (SAEs) were reported in 33 pts in Cohort A and 12 SAEs in 6 pts in Cohort B; most common SAEs in Cohort A were pneumonia (18%) and respiratory failure (11%), and in Cohort B sepsis, dehydration and acute kidney injury (each 15%). Most common treatment-related grade ≥3 laboratory abnormalities in Cohort A and B were neutrophils decreased (27% and 31%), WBC count decreased (20% and 23%), and lymphocyte count decreased (18% and 15%). Conclusions: ENTO + DEC demonstrated activity in ND AML pts aged ≥60 years with TP53m ± CK and CK without TP53 but induced low CR/CRh rates and short OS consistent with previously published poor CR rates and OS in these pts. Our results differ from the high remission rate and longer OS previously reported for DEC monotherapy in AML pts with TP53m. ENTO + DEC was safe and acceptably tolerated. Novel Tx strategies that can benefit AML pts with these most adverse risk factors are urgently needed. Figure 1 Figure 1. Disclosures Ruppert: Telios Pharma: Consultancy.

Abstract Introduction Measures taken to mitigate infection spread during the 2020 COVID-19 pandemic are considered to have caused significant unintended consequences on other diseases. Large decreases in the numbers of symptomatic and asymptomatic people presenting for diagnosis of heart disease, diabetes and cancer have been observed. A recent analysis of solid tumors showed up to 70% reduction in the number of patients presenting for diagnosis. The potential exists for significantly increased morbidity and mortality for these missed or delayed presenting patients. Further, it is important to determine whether infection spread mitigation measures affected the diagnostic testing and treatment decisions for these patients. This study aimed to determine whether pandemic control measures affected presentation, testing and treatment of patients across eight different hematologic cancers. Methods CMS claims data were analyzed for the presence of diagnostic (DX) ICD 10 codes indicative of hematologic cancer. Patients with a DX code first appearing in 2019 or in 2020 were selected to provide newly diagnosed pre-COVID-19 and during COVID-19 cohorts for comparison, with unique patient counts being calculated for each month. A "COVID-19 dip" i.e. a decrease in the number of patients was calculated as the change in number of patients diagnosed in a given month relative to the number for JAN2020. Dip duration was calculated only when the decrease was >10% of the JAN2020 figure. Patients who received treatment via a "J" code Healthcare Common Procedure Coding System (HCPCS) code were extracted from the cohorts and the time taken from initial diagnosis to first treatment calculated. Results Eight hematologic cancers: AML, CLL, CML, HEME (a group of different hematologic cancers), Hodgkins (HOG), Myelodysplasia (MDS), Non-Follicular Lymphomas (NFL), and Non-Hodgkins Lymphoma (NHL) showed a decrease in the number of patients being diagnosed during the early part of 2020 (Fig.1) Fig.1. Change in new patient diagnoses for selected hematologic cancers as a proportion of their JAN2020 value There was some variation in the depth and duration of the COVID-19 dip (Table 1) with MDS having both the longest and deepest dip. Median depth and duration of the dip was 33% and 3.5 months, respectively, with all dips starting either in FEB or MAR2020. Table 1. Duration and depth of COVID-19 dips for selected hematological cancers The proportions of patients receiving therapy via J HCPCS code (JRX) are shown in Table 2 Table 2. Proportions of patients receiving J code therapy Conclusions The decline in new patient diagnoses for heme cancers during the period when COVID-19 control measures were implemented is similar to that seen with solid tumors, although the depth of the COVID-19 dip was generally larger in the latter. There is no evidence of "catch up" diagnosis occurring i.e. patients missing from Q2 2020 are not reappearing en masse in subsequent quarters. The decline for MDS patients has, except for SEP to OCT2020, remained. Collectively, (depending on the calculation method), the COVID-19 dip for these eight heme cancers represents 16,584-33,671 patients who will likely have significantly increased rates of morbidity and mortality due to delayed diagnosis. Analysis of J code treatments show little difference between the proportions of patients receiving these treatments in 2020 compared to 2019 suggesting that at least some aspects of treatment e.g. infused chemotherapy, IO drugs for these patients was relatively unchanged by pandemic control measures. It also suggests that the main cause for decreased patient numbers treated is due to decreased testing for diagnosis, rather than not being treated once diagnosed. This aligns with findings from studies in the US and UK. The results of this study indicate that there may be a "backlog" of tens of thousands of people with cancer whose diagnosis has been significantly delayed and who urgently need to be identified in order to get on proper treatment to lessen the impact of that delay.

Abstract Background: Outcomes of adults with relapsed/refractory T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia or lymphoma (T-ALL or T-LBL respectively) and acute myeloid leukemia (AML) have remained poor despite the availability of newer agents. CD38 is a 45 kDa transmembrane glycoprotein expressed by lymphoid and myeloid cells with several important functions including a role in immune escape from tumor cells [Chillemi A et al. Front Immunol 2017, Furano A et al. J Immunol 1990]. Several studies have demonstrated that CD38 is expressed in tumor cells of patients with T-ALL and AML and potentially targetable using CD38 blocking agents [Naik J et al. Haematologica 2019, Bride KL et al. Blood 2018, Tembhare et al. J Immunother Cancer 2020, Farber M et al. ASH 2018]. XmAb18968 is structurally distinct CD3-CD38 bi-specific T-cell engager with a full fragment crystallizable (Fc) domain modified to minimize Fcγ receptor binding and non-selective activation of T cells and other immune effector cells. XmAb18968 has optimized relative affinities for both CD3 and CD38 which results in reduced cytokine release without compromising target cell killing. We hypothesize targeting CD38 in relapsed/refractory- T-cell ALL/LBL and AML is safe and feasible using XmAb18968, a novel CD3-CD38 bispecific antibody. Study design and methods: This is an investigator-sponsored multi-institutional phase I study evaluating the safety and tolerability of XmAb18968. Patients aged 18 years or above with T-ALL, T-LBL or AML (including undifferentiated leukemia and bi phenotypic leukemia), in relapsed/refractory status (at least one line of prior therapy) including measurable residual disease relapse, CD38 expression ≥ 20%, and adequate organ function will be eligible. Major exclusion criteria are hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) within 6 months of enrollment, active acute GVHD, veno-occlusive disease, and acute promyelocytic leukemia. The study is planned to be conducted at 6 sites in United States. The primary endpoint is to determine the recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D) and toxicity profile of XmAb18968. The secondary endpoints include determination of response rates, duration of response, survival and pharmacokinetics. Exploratory endpoints include correlation of responses with genomic profile, assessment of serum cytokine response, identifying the changes in phenotypic expression of activated T-cells and leukemic cells, correlation of the phenotypic expression with changes in the transcriptome at the single-cell level, proteomics evaluation of cytokine secretion at the single-cell level and correlation of response with N-glycan profiling, quantitative site-occupancy and direct glycopeptide analysis. The study will follow 3+3 design for dose escalation and de-escalation in case of dose limiting toxicity (DLT). Dose escalation will proceed in two separate groups: Group A for subjects with T-ALL and T-LBL and Group B for subjects with AML. Patients will be entered sequentially to each dose level, starting with the first dose level. The DLT observation period for dose-escalation will be 28-days. RP2D will be defined as the highest dose level at which none of the first 3 treated subjects, or no more than 1 of the first 6 treated subjects experience a DLT. A minimum of 24 and a maximum of 60 patients will be needed for the dose escalation phase.

Abstract Background: IVO is an oral potent inhibitor of mutated IDH1 (IDH1m) enzyme, recently approved for the treatment (Tx) of ND adult patients (pts) with IDH1m AML ≥75 years old or with comorbidities precluding use of intensive induction chemotherapy, and adult pts with relapsed or refractory AML. In this Phase 2 sub-study of the Beat AML Master Trial, we evaluated the efficacy of IVO + AZA combination Tx in ND pts aged ≥60 years with IDH1m AML (ClinicalTrials.gov: NCT03013998) Methods: This open-label multicenter (16 sites / 9 enrolling) combination Tx study enrolled ND pts with R132 mIDH1 AML, utilizing the modified minimax Simon's 2-stage Phase 2 design. Pts received IVO + AZA for 6 cycles in the absence of disease progression (PD), unacceptable toxicity or stem cell transplant. Pts who achieved complete remission (CR)/complete remission with hematologic improvement (CRh)/complete remission with incomplete hematologic recovery (CRi) continued IVO + AZA for a total of 12 cycles, then IVO monotherapy until PD. Pts without CR/CRh/CRi after 6 cycles continued IVO + AZA if they demonstrated Tx benefit, as defined in Figure 1. Key eligibility included ND IDH1 R132 mutated AML pts aged ≥60 years and ECOG performance status 0 - 2 (Karnofsky ≥60). All pts received IVO 500 mg/day orally in continuous 28-day cycles + AZA 75 mg/m2 IV or SC on days 1-7 every 28 days. The primary endpoint was CR+CRh+CRi rate after 6 cycles of Tx. Response was assessed using modified 2017 ELN AML criteria. The modified minimax Simon's 2-stage design required 40 pts and tested the null hypothesis that the CR/CRh/CRi rate equaled 25% vs the alternative of 50% (one-sided alpha = 0.025, power 90%). Stage 1 required >5/16 responses for continued enrollment. Even though these criteria were met, the sponsor decided to discontinue the trial on 12/12/2019. Here we report the final primary endpoint results. Data were frozen 02/03/2021. Results: Between 07/2018 and 11/2019, 19 patients were enrolled with IDH1m AML; 18 started IVO + AZA Tx and are included in the analyses. At data freeze, 5 pts had died and 7 pts still on Tx were offered standard of care IVO. Median age of the pts was 75 years, 50% were ≥75 years, 61% were female and 89% were White (Table 1). The most common reasons for Tx discontinuation were trial discontinued by sponsor (7 or 39%), stem cell transplant (4 or 22%), and PD (3 or 17%). A total of 13 pts achieved CR/CRh/CRi (72%) by up to 6 cycles of Tx (Table 2 & Figure 2). Over the entire study period, 14 pts achieved CR/CRh/CRi (78%) with 8 CR (44%), 3 CRh (17%) and 3 CRi (17%). No deaths occurred within the first 60 days of Tx. After a median follow up of 19.8 months (mos), Page 2 median response duration was not reached, with 12-mos disease-free survival rate of 69%; also, median OS was not reached, with 12- and 18-mos OS rates of 100% and 73%, respectively. The median (range) time on Tx was 12 mos (<1 - 26.6); 2 pts (11%) discontinued Tx due to an adverse event (AE) - 2 Grade 3 serious AEs (SAEs), differentiation syndrome and skin infection. Overall, 5 pts had 7 Tx-related SAEs; most common Tx-related SAE was differentiation syndrome in 4 pts (22%), of which 3 (17%) were considered Grade ≥3 (Table 3). The most common AEs of any grade (in ≥25% of pts) were diarrhea (61%), constipation (50%), nausea and hypokalemia (each 44%); and most common Grade ≥3 Tx-related AEs were differentiation syndrome and QTc prolongation (each 17%). The most common Tx-related laboratory abnormalities of any grade were decreased platelet count (22%) and decreased WBC count (17%). Conclusions: In ND pts with IDH1m AML and ≥60 years of age, IVO + AZA Tx was associated with a high CR/CRh/CRi rate, no early deaths (60 days) and a 1-year OS of 100%. IVO + AZA was acceptably tolerated and no unexpected toxicities occurred. Most common unique toxicities of IVO observed during the study were differentiation syndrome and QTc prolongation; these led to Tx discontinuation in only 1 pt. CR/CRh/CRi rate obtained with IVO +AZA is higher than that previously reported in studies with the individual agents or intensive chemotherapy approaches, suggesting a synergistic effect. Our overall response rate is similar to that reported recently for IVO + AZA in older ND IDH1 mutant AML pts, despite not including pts with morphologic leukemia-free state and partial remission. Based on these results, a global Phase 3 evaluation of IVO or placebo plus AZA is ongoing (NCT03173248). Figure 1 Figure 1.

Abstract INTRODUCTION Multiple meningiomas (MM) occurs in up to 18% of meningioma patients and progression data are scarce. The objective of this study is to explore the influence of number of lesions and clinical characteristics on progression-free survival (PFS) and time to a second intervention (TTSI) in patients with WHO grade 1 meningiomas. METHODS We retrospectively reviewed records of all adults diagnosed with a meningioma at our three main sites from January 2009 to May 2020. Progression was considered as time from diagnosis until radiographic progression of the originally resected meningioma. A secondary analysis was carried to evaluate the time from diagnosis to time of a second intervention. Univariable and multivariable analyses were conducted to assess whether number of lesions or any associated variables (age, sex, race, radiation, location, and extent of resection) had a significant impact on PFS and TTSI. RESULTS 838 patients were included. Log-rank test evaluating PFS and TTSI between single and multiple lesions showed significantly shorter progression for MM (p< 0.001 and p< 0.001, respectively). Multivariable Cox regression showed significantly inferior PFS on MM vs. single lesion (HR 2.262 [CI 95%, 1.392-3.677], p=0.001) and a significantly inferior TTSI for patients with MM vs. single meningioma (HR 2.377 [CI 95%, 1.617 – 3.494], p=0.001). When input as a continuous variable, PFS was significantly inferior for each additional meningioma (HR 1.350 [CI 95% 1.074-1.698], p=0.010) and TTSI is significantly inferior as well (HR 1.428 [CI 95% 1.189 – 1.716], p< 0.001). African-Americans had an inferior PFS when compared to Non-Hispanic White patients (HR 3.472 [CI 95% 1.083-11.129], p=0.036). CONCLUSION The PFS of meningiomas is influenced by the number of lesions present. Patients with MM are more prone to undergo a second intervention for progressive disease. Hence, a closer follow-up may be warranted in patients who present with multiple lesions.
