Extramedullary multiple myeloma is seen in advanced and aggressive disease and occurs due to plasma cell infiltration of sites other than the bone marrow. Myelomatous ascites or pleural effusion is seen in less than 1 % of cases and can be differentiated from infectious etiologies based on fluid cytology.

Abstract Background: Fc receptor-homolog 5 (FcRH5) is a type I membrane protein that is expressed exclusively in the B-cell lineage, and at a higher level on myeloma cells than on normal B cells. Cevostamab is a FcRH5xCD3 bispecific antibody (BsAb) that facilitates T cell-directed killing of myeloma cells. Initial data from the dose-escalation phase of the ongoing Phase I study (NCT03275103) of cevostamab monotherapy in patients (pts) with heavily pre-treated RRMM demonstrated promising activity and manageable safety, along with near ubiquitous FcRH5 expression on myeloma cells (Cohen et al. ASH 2020; Sumiyoshi et al. EHA 2021). We present updated safety and efficacy data from a larger cohort of pts, including results comparing Cycle (C) 1 single step-up (SS) and double step-up (DS) dosing for the mitigation of cytokine release syndrome (CRS). Methods: Participants have RRMM for which no established therapy is available or appropriate. Cevostamab (intravenous infusion) is administered in 21-day cycles. In the SS cohorts, the step dose (0.05-3.6mg) is given on C1 Day (D) 1 and the target dose (0.15-198mg) on C1D8. In the DS cohorts, the step doses are given on C1D1 (0.3-1.2mg) and C1D8 (3.6mg), and the target dose (60-160mg) on C1D15. In both regimens, the target dose is given on D1 of subsequent cycles. Cevostamab is continued for a total of 17 cycles, unless progressive disease or unacceptable toxicity occurs. CRS is reported using ASTCT criteria (Lee et al. Biol Blood Marrow Transplant 2019). Results: At data cut-off (18 May 2021), 160 pts had been enrolled (median age: 64 years, range: 33-82 years; male: 58.1%); 21.3% of pts had extramedullary disease. Median number of prior lines of therapy was 6 (range: 2-18). Most pts (85.0%) were triple-class refractory (PI, IMiD, anti-CD38 antibody). 28 pts (17.5%) had received ≥1 prior CAR-T, 13 pts (8.1%) ≥1 prior BsAb, 27 pts (16.9%) ≥1 prior antibody-drug conjugate (ADC), and 54 pts (33.8%) ≥1 prior anti-BCMA targeting agent. Median follow-up in exposed pts was 6.1 months. Almost all had ≥1 adverse event (Table). The most common was CRS (128/160 pts [80.0%]; Grade [Gr] 1: 42.5%; Gr 2: 36.3%; Gr 3: 1.3%). Immune effector cell-associated neurotoxicity syndrome (ICANS) associated with CRS was observed in 21 pts (13.1%) and in 34/211 (16.1%) CRS events (Gr 1: 8.5%; Gr 2: 6.2%; Gr 3: 1.4%). Most CRS events occurred in C1 (87.2%), arose within 24 hours of cevostamab administration (70.5%), and resolved within 48 hours of onset (83.4%). In the pts with CRS, tocilizumab was used for CRS management in 43.8% and steroids in 25.8% (both agents: 18.0%). In SS dose-escalation (68 pts), 3.6mg was chosen as the most effective C1D1 SS dose for limiting CRS in C1, with no target dose-dependent increase in the rate or severity of CRS observed after the C1D8 administration. Likewise, in DS dose-escalation (30 pts), 0.3/3.6mg was identified as the preferred C1D1/C1D8 DS dose for limiting CRS in C1. Notably, the overall rate of CRS was lower in the pts who received the 0.3/3.6mg/target DS regimen than in those who received the 3.6mg/target SS regimen (77.3% [34/44] vs 88.2% [75/85], respectively). The rate of ICANS associated with CRS was also lower in the 0.3/3.6mg/target DS cohort than in the 3.6mg/target SS cohort (4.5% [2/44] vs 21.2% [18/85], respectively). At data cut-off, 158/160 pts were efficacy evaluable. In dose-escalation, responses were observed at the 20-198mg target dose levels, and data suggested a target dose-dependent increase in clinical efficacy. Median time to response was 29 days (range: 20-179 days). Two dose-expansion cohorts were opened: ORR was higher at the 160mg dose level (54.5%, 24/44 pts) than at the 90mg dose level (36.7%, 22/60). At target dose levels >90mg, ORRs in pts with prior exposure to CAR-Ts, BsAbs, ADCs, and anti-BCMA targeting agents were 44.4% (4/9 pts), 33.3% (3/9), 50.0% (7/14), and 36.4% (8/22) respectively. Median follow-up among all responders (n=61) was 8.1 months; estimated median duration of response was 15.6 months (95% CI: 6.4, 21.6). Conclusions: Cevostamab monotherapy continues to show clinically meaningful activity in a large cohort of pts with heavily pre-treated RRMM, with a target dose-dependent increase in ORR, but no increase in CRS rate. Responses appear durable, and are observed in pts with prior exposure to CAR-Ts, BsAbs, and ADCs. Compared with SS dosing, DS dosing at the 0.3/3.6mg level appears to be associated with a trend for an improved C1 safety profile. Figure 1 Figure 1.

Abstract Introduction: Peripheral T-cell lymphoma not otherwise specified (PTCL-NOS) is the most common PTCL subtype, accounting for approximately 25% of all PTCL cases. The median age at diagnosis is 60 years and is more prevalent among males. Currently, most epidemiological data on T- and NK-cell lymphomas come from developed countries. Thus, very few data are available regarding this condition in Latin American countries, especially in those aged 60 years and older. The Latin American Group of Lymphoproliferative Disorders (GELL) has previously reported on the impact of serum albumin level in survival outcomes in PTCL-NOS. Therefore, we aim to evaluate the clinical, demographic, and outcome patterns of elderly patients with PTCL-NOS. Methods: We conducted an observational, retrospective study of newly diagnosed PTCL-NOS between January 2000 and December 2020. Patient must be aged 60 years and older. All clinical data were retrieved from clinical records at the different participating institutions. The study outcomes were overall survival (OS) and progression-free survival (PFS). The International Prognostic Index (IPI), the Prognostic Index for T-cell lymphoma (PIT), and the NCCN IPI scores were used for risk stratification. Kaplan-Meier and log-rank test were used for survival analysis. Univariate and multivariate Cox regression analysis were used to estimate hazard ratios (HR) with a 95% confidence interval (CI). Outcomes with a p-value <0.05 were considered statistically significant. Results: A total of 107 patients were included; median age at diagnosis was 72 years (range 60-92), 61% were male, 46% had an ECOG ≥2, 70% had stage III-IV, and 15% had more than one extranodal site. The IPI, PIT and NCCN-IPI scores stratified 51%, 69%, and 74% of patients as high- / high-intermediate risk, respectively. Seventy-four (69%) patients received first-line systemic therapy. Most patients (53%) were managed with CHOP/CHOP-like regimen, followed by CHOEP (19%). The overall response (OR) rate to first-line therapy was 61% (complete response, CR 41%). Salvage therapy was given to only 9 patients; the OR rate was 44% (CR 11%). With a median follow-up of 29 months (95% CI 13-45 months), the 2-year OS was 46% (95% CI 36-59), with median survival time of 16 months (95% CI 10-NR). In the multivariate analysis, patients with serum albumin levels <3.5 g/dL had median survival of 7 months (95% CI 3-20) and 2-year OS rate of 24% (95% CI 13-46%), while patients with albumin ≥3.5 g/dL did not reach the median survival time and had a 2-yOS rate of 67% (95% CI 36-65%) (p<0.0001) (Table 1, Figure 1). Patients with a lymphocyte-to-monocyte ratio (LMR) >7.6 had a median OS of 8 months (95% CI 6-NR) and a 2-year OS of 10% (95% CI 2-65), while patients with a LMR ≤7.6 did not reach the median OS and had a 2-year OS of 57% (95% CI 45-72) (p = 0.0108) (Table 1, Figure 1). Conclusions: This large cohort of Latin American PTCL-NOS patients aged ≥60 years showed overall response rates comparable to previously published data. However, survival rates were shorter compared to those reported in developed countries. In this study, we again confirmed low serum albumin level (<3.5 g/dL) as an adverse prognostic factor for OS in PTCL-NOS, and independent from the IPI, PIT and NCCN-IP scores. Additionally, we describe for first time in a Latin American cohort the impact of the LMR on survival, demonstrating poor outcomes in those with LMR >7.6. We are currently validating our findings in a prospective cohort of Latin American PTCL patients and to improve clinical decision-making in those deemed at high-risk for early mortality.

Abstract Background: Patients with relapsed and refractory multiple myeloma (RRMM) who have triple class exposure to immunomodulatory drugs (IMiDs), proteasome inhibitors (PIs) and anti-CD38 monoclonal antibodies (MoABs) have a poor prognosis and high unmet medical need. Ciltacabtagene autoleucel (cilta-cel) is a chimeric antigen receptor T-cell therapy which may offer long-term disease control for these patients. CARTITUDE-1 is an open-label, single arm phase 1b/2 clinical trial conducted to characterize the safety and efficacy of cilta-cel in adult patients with triple-class exposed RRMM. Since CARTITUDE-1 is a single-arm study, adjusted comparisons to other currently available therapies can provide valuable information on relative efficacy and safety benefits of cilta-cel over current real-world clinical practice (RWCP). LocoMMotion is the first prospective study of RWCP efficacy and safety outcomes in triple-class exposed patients with RRMM. It was designed a priori to serve as an external control cohort for CARTITUDE-1, using aligned inclusion criteria and endpoint definitions, to enable robust, high quality indirect comparisons vs. cilta-cel. Objective: To compare patient outcomes of cilta-cel vs. RWCP, including overall response rate (ORR), complete response or better rate (≥CR rate), progression-free survival (PFS) as assessed by a review committee and overall survival (OS) in patients with triple-class exposed RRMM. Methods: Individual patient level data available from both CARTITUDE-1 (clinical cut-off February 2021) and LocoMMotion (clinical cut-off March 2021) were pooled to conduct the comparative analyses. Imbalances between both cohorts on key prognostic baseline characteristics, including refractory status, ISS stage, time to progression on prior line, number of prior lines, average duration of prior lines, age, creatinine clearance, ECOG PS and MM type were adjusted for using inverse probability weighting. Average treatment effect on the treated (ATT) weights derived from propensity scores estimated using multivariable logistic regression modeling were applied to the LocoMMotion patients to have the weighted RWCP cohort reflecting the CARTITUDE-1 patient population. Balance between the ATT weighted RWCP cohort versus the CARTITUDE-1 population was evaluated based on reduction of standardized mean differences and overlap of propensity score distributions. Weighted logistic and Cox proportional hazards regression were used to estimate the relative treatment effects for cilta-cel vs. RWCP on binary endpoints (Odds ratios (OR), transformed into Response-rate Ratios (RR) and time to event endpoints (Hazard ratios (HR)), respectively. The base case analyses included all enrolled (apheresed) patients from CARTITUDE-1, reflecting an intention to treat approach. Additional analyses were conducted including only patients who received cilta-cel infusion compared to an aligned population of LocoMMotion where patients that progressed or died within 52 days were excluded from the LocoMMotion cohort. Results: 113 patients were enrolled in CARTITUDE-1, of which 97 were infused with cilta-cel. 246 patients were enrolled in LocoMMotion receiving RWCP in Italy (24%), Germany (15%), France (14%), UK (11%), Spain (10%), USA (9%), Belgium (5%), Poland (5%), Netherlands (4%) and Russia (3%). Therapies within the RWCP cohort were diverse and >90 unique treatment regimens were used. The most frequent regimens were Kd (13.8%), PCd (12.6%) and Pd (11.0%). The weighted LocoMMotion population was well balanced with the CARTITUDE-1 cohort. Adjusted comparisons (Table 1) showed statistically significant improvements for cilta-cel vs. RWCP for ORR (RR=4.43), ≥CR (RR=568.92), PFS (HR=0.15) and OS (HR=0.38), all comparisons with p<0.001. All additional analyses were consistent with these findings (Table 1). Conclusions: Outcomes for patients with triple-class exposed RRMM treated with RWPC observed in LocoMMotion are poor, illustrating the high unmet medical need. Adjusted comparisons vs. CARTITUDE-1 demonstrate significantly improved ORR, ≥CR, PFS and OS for cilta-cel compared to a diverse set of RWCP. These findings highlight cilta-cel's potential as a highly effective treatment option for patients with triple-class exposed RRMM. Figure 1 Figure 1.

Abstract Background: Ciltacabtagene autoleucel (cilta-cel) is a novel chimeric antigen receptor T-cell therapy that is being evaluated in the CARTITUDE-1 trial (NCT03548207) in patients with relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma (RRMM) who are triple-class exposed (to immunomodulatory drugs, proteasome inhibitors, and an anti-CD38 monoclonal antibody). As there is no clear standard of care for this patient population, and due to an absence of direct head-to-head trials evaluating cilta-cel and other relevant treatments, indirect treatment comparisons (ITCs) between cilta-cel and treatments used in current clinical practice, ie, physician's choice of treatment (PCT), have been previously conducted. Meta-analyses were performed to derive single summary effect estimates for overall survival (OS) and progression-free survival (PFS) by pooling ITCs evaluating cilta-cel versus PCT in patients with triple-class exposed RRMM. Methods: ITCs examining the comparative effectiveness of cilta-cel versus PCT on OS and PFS were included. Data on cilta-cel corresponded to the February 2021 data-cut for CARTITUDE-1. Data on PCT was leveraged from the following sources: (i) the Flatiron database, a primarily US community-based multiple myeloma registry, (ii) the long-term follow-up results of three global RRMM daratumumab randomized clinical trials (POLLUX [NCT02076009], CASTOR [NCT02136134], and EQUULEUS [NCT01998971]), (iii) the US-based retrospective MAMMOTH study, and (iv) a representative German patient registry maintained by OncologyInformationService (OIs). In each ITC, the PCT group was comprised of patients who satisfied key eligibility criteria for CARTITUDE-1 and was made comparable to CARTITUDE-1 using inverse probability of treatment weighting. Hence, the ITCs were deemed appropriate to meta-analyze. The meta-analyses used a robust variance estimator to account for the use of CARTITUDE-1 in each pairwise ITC. The main meta-analyses considered all participants treated with cilta-cel in CARTITUDE-1 compared with PCT. Sensitivity analyses considered ITC effect estimates based on all enrolled participants in CARTITUDE-1. Pooled summary effect estimates were presented as hazard ratios (HRs) with the corresponding 95% confidence intervals (CIs). Results: Based on availability of data, the main meta-analyses included four ITCs for OS and three ITCs for PFS. Cilta-cel was associated with a statistically significant improvement in OS (HR: 0.21, 95% CI: 0.13 to 0.34; Figure 1) and PFS (HR: 0.20, 95% CI: 0.07 to 0.63; Figure 2) compared to PCT. Sensitivity analyses including all enrolled participants confirmed the results of the main meta-analyses. Conclusions: In the meta-analyses, cilta-cel demonstrated a significant advantage over PCT in terms of OS and PFS, highlighting its potential as an effective therapy in patients with triple-class exposed RRMM.

Abstract Background: Two global, randomized, placebo (pbo)-controlled phase 3 studies of single-agent ixazomib (ixa) maintenance therapy are currently ongoing for newly diagnosed MM patients following primary therapy that included autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT) (MM3, NCT02181413) or excluded ASCT (MM4, NCT02312258). Both trials have demonstrated statistically significant and clinically meaningful improvement in their primary endpoint of progression-free survival (PFS): for MM3, median 26.5 months (mos) ixa vs 21.3 mos pbo (hazard ratio [HR] 0.720, 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.582-0.890, P=0.002); for MM4, median 17.4 mos for ixa vs 9.4 mos for pbo (HR 0.659, 95% CI 0.542-0.801, P<0.001). Data for the key secondary endpoint, OS, have not previously been published. Methods: Full methods have previously been reported (Dimopoulos, Lancet 2019; Dimopoulos, J Clin Oncol 2020). Eligible patients (MM3, N=656; MM4, N=706) were randomized 3:2 to receive maintenance therapy with single agent ixa or pbo for a maximum of approximately 24 mos (26 cycles, to the nearest complete cycle) or until progressive disease or unacceptable toxicity, whichever occurred first. Results: At the most recent data cut-off (MM3, 29 January 2021; MM4, 15 October 2020), with median follow up of 64 mos and 36 mos, respectively, 27% (MM3, 174/656) and 29% (MM4, 203/706) of the intention-to-treat (ITT) population had OS events. In MM3, the 5-year Kaplan-Meier estimate for OS was 74% for ixa and 73% for pbo, though the median OS had not yet been reached in either arm (HR 1.008, 95% CI 0.744-1.367, P=0.958; Figure). In MM4, the 5-year Kaplan-Meier OS estimate was 55% for ixa and 56% for pbo, though the median OS had also not yet been reached in either arm (HR 1.136, 95% CI 0.853-1.514, P=0.382; Figure). No new safety signals were identified, and the incidence of new primary malignancies in both studies was similar between ixa and pbo. Conclusions: These most current OS data for MM3 and MM4 have not demonstrated a statistically significant difference for the ixa or the pbo arm to date. After 64 mos of follow-up in MM3, the risk of OS does not differ between the study arms. After 36 mos of follow-up in MM4, the OS HR shows a trend that favors the pbo arm. Because interim analyses of OS may be overrepresented by deaths in patients who did not benefit from maintenance therapy, it is not known to what extent these results will be reflective of the ITT population at the time of the final analyses. As treatment options, including anti-CD38 mAb and other new mechanisms of action, for salvage therapies following progression continue to expand, OS is increasingly being confounded by subsequent therapies. Hence, demonstrating OS advantage for early line MM therapies is becoming increasingly challenging. OS data continue to be collected in these studies for later analyses. Figure 1 Figure 1.

Abstract Background: The ECOG-ACRIN randomized phase 3 clinical trial E1912 established ibrutinib-rituximab (IR) as the standard of care for CLL patients <= 70 years in the frontline setting by improving the progression free (PFS) and overall survival (OS) compared to previous standard chemo-immunotherapy with fludarabine, cyclophosphamide and rituximab (FCR) (Shanafelt et al. NEJM 2019). Quality of life (QOL) was an important secondary endpoint on this trial comparing continuous (IR) vs time-limited (FCR) therapy due to the differing profile of treatment-related toxicities over the short and long-term. E1912 patient-reported outcomes (PROs) results are presented here. Methods: Patients enrolled on E1912 completed the Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy-General (FACT-G) and Leukemia subscale at randomization (baseline), 3, 6, and 12 months post-randomization, and every 6 months for 2 years regardless of disease status. The primary outcome was the 31-item FACT-Leukemia Trial Outcome Index (FACT-Leu TOI), calculated by summing items from the FACT-G physical wellbeing (PWB), functional well-being (FWB), and leukemia subscales (score range: 0-124). The primary endpoint was defined as the difference in FACT-Leu TOI change scores from randomization to 12 months (at response evaluation) between patients treated with continuous therapy Arm A (IR) vs time-limited therapy Arm B (FCR). Mean change scores from baseline to each time point were calculated using all cases with data at baseline and the corresponding time point. Comparisons between treatment arms were performed using two-sample t tests. Linear mixed effects models were used to estimate the trajectories of PRO scores. Results: PRO data was extracted on 3/8/2021. PRO data was provided at baseline and 12 months for 233/354 (65.8%) patients on the IR arm and 118/175 (67.4%) patients on the FCR arm. At enrollment, there were no significant differences in the baseline FACT-Leu TOI scores (mean ± SE) between the two arms: IR (93.27 ± 1.03) vs FCR (92.68 ± 1.38; p=0.73). The FACT-Leu TOI score improved from baseline to 12 months in both arms (Table 1 and Figure 1). The change scores from baseline to 12 months, the primary outcome, were not significantly different between IR (7.59 ± 1.09) vs FCR (8.22 ± 1.44; p=0.73). Change in FACT-Leu TOI from baseline to 3 months was 5.77 ± 0.77 and 4.06 ± 1.18 (p=0.22); and from baseline to 6 months was 6.87 ± 0.87 and 8.01 ± 1.44 (p=0.50) in the IR and FCR arms, respectively. After the first 6 months of treatment, the improvement in FACT-Leu TOI scores was maintained in both treatment arms. There was no significant difference in total FACT-Leu TOI score in the continuous therapy (IR) vs time-limited therapy (FCR) arms over the first 36 months post registration. Analysis of FACT subscales showed PWB improved in the IR arm (0.37 ± 0.22) and declined in the FCR arm (-0.92 ± 0.39) from baseline to 3 months (p=0.004 for difference in PWB change between arms) but there was no significant difference between the two arms for change in PWB scores from baseline to 6 and 12 months. There were no significant differences between the two arms for change in FWB and FACT-Leu subscales from baseline to 3, 6 and 12 months. Conclusions: QOL improves in CLL patients age 70 and younger when treated in the frontline setting with IR or FCR. The improvement in QOL is maintained during continuous therapy with ibrutinib and there is no significant decline in QOL over time. Given the improvement in PFS and OS with IR over FCR seen in E1912, the results of this QOL analysis support the use of frontline ibrutinib in previously untreated younger CLL patients.

Abstract Multiple myeloma (MM) is an incurable form of plasma cell cancer in which primary and secondary chromosomal translocations routinely juxtapose oncogenes to plasma cell-specific super-enhancers. Coincidentally, drugs which target super-enhancers have had success clinically. For example, immunomodulatory imide drugs (IMiDs) degrade super-enhancer-binding pioneer factors IKAROS and AIOLOS, while glucocorticoids (Dexamethasone) and proteasome inhibitors (Bortezomib) have the ability to transrepress or block the processing of super-enhancer-forming NF-κB proteins, respectively. Currently, alternative enhancer-targeting drugs are also in clinical development, like p300 inhibitors which target the acetyl-binding bromodomains and/or histone acetyl transferase activity of the chromatin-regulating coactivator homologs CBP and EP300. Despite showing therapeutic promise, our understanding of how these drugs function, alone or together, remains incomplete. Case in point, we find that IMiD-induced degradation of its target proteins IKAROS and AIOLOS does not guarantee a therapeutic response in vitro, and patients successfully treated with IMiDs eventually relapse; meanwhile, coactivator-targeting therapies like p300 inhibitors are often too toxic in vivo, and lack a therapeutic window. To improve the outcomes of MM patients we need to understand the heterogeneous genetics and transcription-factor milieus of the myeloma enhancer landscape, as well as how to increase the precision of enhancer-disrupting drugs. To accomplish this, our lab utilizes more than 60 human myeloma cell lines that have been extensively characterized at the genetic, proteomic, and drug-therapeutic-response levels. Additionally, we have generated a highly-predictive immunocompetent mouse model (Vk*MYC hCRBN+) that develops human-like MM and is sensitive to both IMiDs and a new class of therapeutics termed "degronimids" (normal mice do not respond to IMiDs or degronimids). Our central hypothesis is that combining a broad coactivator-targeting drug (e.g., the p300 inhibitor GNE-781), with a MM-specific transcription factor-targeting drug (e.g., IMiDs) restricts toxicities to myeloma cells and thus improves the therapeutic window. Currently, we are testing a variety of coactivator-targeting compounds alongside traditional IMiD therapies and other preclinical transcription factor-targeting drugs both in vivo and in vitro. We show that Vk*MYC hCRBN+ mice are exquisitely sensitive to GNE-781, requiring one fourth of the dose needed to treat other cancers and therefore avoiding the neutropenia and thrombocytopenia seen at higher doses. Second, we show that although IMiDs and GNE-781 induce an effective but transient response in vivo as single agents, the combination of the two drugs proved curative, with a progressive deepening of the anti-tumor response occurring even after therapy is discontinued. Ongoing experiments aim to determine how this drug combination, and other coactivator + transcription factor-targeting combinations, permanently disrupt myeloma-specific super-enhancers.

Abstract Background: Initial studies with venetoclax, a BCL-2 inhibitor, alone or in combination with either dexamethasone or bortezomib and dexamethasone has shown considerable anti-tumor activity in t(11;14) MM with relapsed disease. Based on preclinical studies suggesting synergy when combined with bortezomib and phase 1 data showing efficacy for venetoclax, this combination was compared with bortezomib and dexamethasone (BortDex) in relapsed MM. While the BELLINI (NCT02755597) trial did demonstrate improved PFS with the combination, there were limited number of patients with t(11;14) treated with BortDex. The objective of this study was to assess real-world effectiveness of BortDex in patients with t(11;14) positive relapsed/refractory MM. Patients and methods: This non-interventional, retrospective observational cohort study included patients with t(11;14) MM from the International Myeloma Working Group (IMWG) retrospective study of t(11;14) MM. From the overall cohort, patients with t(11;14) MM receiving BortDex in ≥2 nd and ≤4 th line were initially selected. The cohort was further limited to patients with no evidence of allogeneic SCT within 16 weeks or autologous SCT within 12 weeks prior to BortDex initiation. Finally, patients non-refractory to prior PI regimen and not receiving BortDex regimen as part of a clinical trial were included in the study. Patient demographic and clinical characteristics along with real-world effectiveness outcomes including best response, overall survival (OS), and time to next therapy (TTNT) as a surrogate measure for progression-free survival (PFS) were assessed. All analyses were descriptive in nature and were conducted using the SAS 9.4 (SAS Institute Inc., Cary, NC, USA). Results: Overall, 144 patients who met the inclusion criteria were analyzed. Median age was 62.5 years, 62% were male. Patients had a median of 1 prior line (range 1-3) at start of BortDex, at a median of 18.4 months (range, 1-100) from diagnosis; 29% had a prior transplant. A PR or better was observed in 53% of patients with BortDex. The median TTNT for this cohort was 8.4 months and median OS was 46.1 months. Conclusions: This retrospective study of non-trial patients with t(11;14) MM provides a benchmark for newer therapies in this patient population for comparison with both venetoclax dexamethasone as well as combinations using the -BortDex backbone.

Abstract Background: There is suggestive evidence that inflammation is related to ovarian cancer survival. However, more research is needed to identify inflammation-related factors that are associated with ovarian cancer survival and to determine their combined effects. Methods: This analysis used pooled data on 8,147 women with invasive epithelial ovarian cancer from the Ovarian Cancer Association Consortium. The prediagnosis inflammation-related exposures of interest included alcohol use; aspirin use; other nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug use; body mass index; environmental tobacco smoke exposure; history of pelvic inflammatory disease, polycystic ovarian syndrome, and endometriosis; menopausal hormone therapy use; physical inactivity; smoking status; and talc use. Using Cox proportional hazards models, the relationship between each exposure and survival was assessed in 50% of the data. A weighted inflammation-related risk score (IRRS) was developed, and its association with survival was assessed using Cox proportional hazards models in the remaining 50% of the data. Results: There was a statistically significant trend of increasing risk of death per quartile of the IRRS [HR = 1.09; 95% confidence interval (CI), 1.03–1.14]. Women in the upper quartile of the IRRS had a 31% higher death rate compared with the lowest quartile (95% CI, 1.11–1.54). Conclusions: A higher prediagnosis IRRS was associated with an increased mortality risk after an ovarian cancer diagnosis. Further investigation is warranted to evaluate whether postdiagnosis exposures are also associated with survival. Impact: Given that pre- and postdiagnosis exposures are often correlated and many are modifiable, our study results can ultimately motivate the development of behavioral recommendations to enhance survival among patients with ovarian cancer.
