Abstract: Aims: Combining 2GTKI+pegylated IFN-a (Peg-IFN) represents an attractive approach for first-line treatment of CP CML, while providing somewhat light additional AEs, it induces high rates of deep molecular responses. We evaluated nilotinib (NIL) alone versus NIL+Peg-IFN in newly diagnosed CP-CML patients (pts) in a randomised phase III trial (PETALs, EudraCT 2013-004974-82) and analysed here the proportion of patients reaching Treatment-Free Remission (TFR) and outcome. Methods: Newly diagnosed CP CML pts ≤65 years, without vascular history were randomized 1:1 to get NIL 300 mg BID alone [M0 to M72 (unless TFR), arm A] vs Peg-IFN alone for 30 days (M-1→M0) 30 mg/wk, prior to NIL 300 mg BID + Peg-IFN 30 mg/wk 2 wks, upgraded to 45 mg/wk thereafter, for up to 2 y (M0 to M24, arm B) followed by NIL alone until M72 unless TFR. The primary endpoint was the rate of MR4.5 by M12, and after amendment, the trial was extended to 72 months follow-up in order to add, as a secondary endpoint, the TFR rate in pts reaching MR4.5 ≥2 y. The trigger for treatment resumption was loss of MMR. All molecular assessments were centralised until M36, and in case of TFR, MR4.5 was centrally confirmed at M0 TFR, and further molecular follow-up was then performed locally. All molecular quantifications are expressed as BCR-ABL1/ABL1 (IS) in % with ≥32,000 copies of ABL1 as control in the central lab and in the local labs all involved to the pluri-annual French external quality controls. Results are analysed in intention-to-treat. Results: As previously reported, 200 pts were randomized (99 in A, 101 in B), 130 M and 35 F in each arm, median age of 46 (18-66) y. The median follow-up (FU) since diagnosis is now 47.5 (33.77-62.39) Mo. and the median FU since discontinuation is 9.86 (5.8-23) Mo. in arm A and 15.57 (12.62-22.77) Mo. in arm B. Sokal and ELTS scores were high in 25% and 2.5%, intermediate in 33% and 16.5% and low in 42% and 81% pts respectively, equally balanced. All pts harboured a "Major" BCR transcript. We have previously shown that by M12, the rate of MR4.5 was 15.9% vs 21.5% (primary endpoint met, p=0.049) and that the overall cumulative incidence of MR4.5 was somewhat superior in arm B (54.6 [43.7-65.5] %) vs A (44 [31.5-54] %), p=0.05. Two pts died, one from myeloid blast crisis before TFR (arm A), one from a solid tumour (arm A). Overall, 40 pts (20%) reached the TFR criteria, 21 in arm A with a median FU of 9.86 (5.8-23) Mo. and 19 in arm B with a median FU since Nilo cessation of 15.57 (12.62-22.77) Mo, partly related to slightly different time for obtaining sustained MR4.5 in favour of arm B (16 vs 13 Mo.). For these 40 pts reaching TFR criteria, there was no statistical difference in terms of age at diagnosis and age at TFR, gender, Sokal, ELTS, FU since diagnosis, undetectability at cessation, BCR-ABL1 levels at 3 Mo. after cessation between the 2 arms. The survival without loss of MMR after cessation is illustrated in Figure 1. It looks superior in arm B over arm A, but did not reach statistical difference (p=0.445), but the FU is very short after cessation yet, especially in arm A. Once NIL was resumed in the pts that failed TFR, all pts recovered MMR within 6 Mo., with no difference between arms (p=1.00). In univariate analysis, we did not identify significant factor impacting on the TFR success (age at cessation, sex, undetectability at cessation, Sokal, ELTS) except the BCR-ABL1 value at M3-TFR (undetectable versus detectable, HR 7.15 [2.06-24.75], p=0.002), and the duration of MR4.5 before discontinuation (HR 1.11 [1.03-1.19] , p=0.004). During this TFR phase 7 SAEs were reported in arm A (2 pregnancies, 1 obstructive sleep apnea, 1 fever episode, 1 carotid stenosis and 1 femoral stenosis in the same patient at 2 Mo. after cessation, 1 lung carcinoid tumor) and 2 in arm B (1 persistent atrial fibrillation, 1 cholecystectomy). Conclusions: The combination of NIL + Peg-IFN induces higher MR4.5 rates by M36 in newly diagnosed CP CML pts that may translate in higher successful TFR rates, however a longer follow-up is needed to see consistent significant differences. Updated data will be presented. Figure 1 Figure 1.

Abstract: The combination of 2GTKI+pegylated IFN-α (Peg-IFN) is an attractive approach for first-line treatment of CP CML, inducing high rates of deep molecular responses in phase II trials. Thus, we evaluated nilotinib (NIL) alone versus NIL+Peg-IFN in newly diagnosed CP-CML patients (pts) in a randomised phase III trial (PETALs, EudraCT 2013-004974-82). Newly diagnosed CP CML pts ≤65 y, without prior history of arterial occlusion were randomized 1:1 to get NIL 300 mg BID alone (M0 to M48, arm A) vs Peg-IFN alone for 30 days (M-1→M0) 30 μg/wk as priming, prior to NIL 300 mg BID + Peg-IFN 30 μg/wk 2 wks, upgraded to 45 μg/wk thereafter, for up to 2 y (M0 to M24, arm B) followed by NIL alone for 4 more years unless pts enter treatment-free remission (TFR). The primary endpoint is the rate of MR4.5 by 1 y. As a secondary endpoint, pts reaching MR4.5 ≥2 y are allowed to stop NIL and enter a TFR phase in both arms. The trigger for treatment resumption is loss of MMR. All molecular assessments are centralised, quantifications are expressed as BCR-ABL/ABL1 (IS) in % with ≥32,000 copies of ABL1 as control. Two hundred pts were randomized (99 in A, 101 in B), 130 M and 35 F in each arm, median age of 46 (18-66) y. Median follow-up is 43.8 (34.3-55.9) Mo. Results are analysed in intention-to-treat. Sokal and EUTOS LTS scores were H in 25% and 2.5%, Int. in 33% and 16.5% and L in 42% and 81% pts respectively equally balanced. Median age is 46 (18-66) y, 18 pts (9%) had ACAs, all pts have a "Major" BCR transcript. CHR was obtained in 9.6% of pts at M0 (in B) and 88% of pts in A and 90.4% of pts in B at M1. CCyR rates at M3 were 63% vs 75% in A and B (p=ns), and BCR-ABL1 ≤1% at M6 were 87% in A vs 93% in B (p=ns). By M12, the rates of MMR were 68.1% vs 70.1% (p=0.44), MR4 were 34% vs 47.5% (p=0.041), MR4.5 were 15.9% vs 21.5% (p=0.049), MR5 11.7% vs 23.71% (p=0.023), in A vs B respectively. By M36 the rates of MMR were 83% vs 86.6% (p=0.31), MR4 were 70.2% vs 71.13% (p=0.50), MR4.5 were 37.2% vs 49.5% (p=0.05), MR5 33% vs 42.3% (p=0.12), in A vs B respectively The overall cumulative incidence of MR4.5 is superior in B (54.6 [43.7-65.5] %) vs A (44 [31.5-54]%) close to significance (unilateral Fisher test, p=0.05, see Figure). Seven patients were mutated by Sanger in A (5 Y253, 1 E255K, 1 T315I) vs 2 in B (2 T315I). One pt (A) progressed toward AP and then myeloid BC with a Y253H mutation, is still alive in CMR on Ponatinib. Twenty nine (29%) pts were withdrawn from study in A (toxicity 9, cancer 3, resistance 14, investigator decision 2, lost for FU 1) vs 26 (26%) pts for B (toxicity 13, resistance 8, investigator decision 5), 1 pt died from cervix cancer (A). Median overall doses of NIL delivered by M36 were 600 mg/d in both arms (p=ns). The median overall dose of Peg-IFN delivered in B by M24 was 37.5 mg/wk. The overall rate of grade 3-4 hematologic toxicities was 22%; with 2% and 7% thrombocytopenia, 4% and 6% neutropenia, and 1% and 1% pancytopenia in A vs B respectively. Major grade 3-4 non-hematologic toxicities consisted in 9% of cardiac disorders in A (2 coronaropathies, 1 myocardial infarction, 2 thoracic pains, 2 atrial fibrillation, 1 bradycardia, 1 palpitations, 1 pericarditis) vs 8% in B (2 coronaropathies, 1 myocardial infarction, 3 atrial fibrillation, 1 palpitations, 1 pericarditis), 4% vascular disorders in A (1 thrombophlebitis + PE, 1 transient ischemic attack, 1 PAOD, 1 carotid stenosis) vs 3% in B (1 thrombophlebitis, 1 PAOD, 1 transient ischemic attack). Three % of gastro-intestinal disorders were observed in A (2 pancreatitis, 1 anal fissure) vs 6% in B (2 pancreatitis, 1 anal fissure, 1 abdominal pain, 2 cholecystectomies); 5% auto-immune disorders in B (1 recurrent pericarditis, 2 hemolytic anemia, 1 ITP, 1 thyroiditis); 5 and 8 pregnancies (2 pts + 3 partner Arm 1, 3 pts + 5 partner Arm B), despite recommended contraceptive methods. Secondary tumours were diagnosed in 4% (1 breast, 1 cervix, 1 thyroid, 1 neuroendocrine) in A vs 2% of pts (1 neuroendocrine and 1 testis) in B. Of note 8% psychiatric episodes were reported in B pts (2 unsuccessful suicide attempts), vs 2% in A. We observed 9% lipase elevations in A, 6% in B, 2% cholestatic episodes in A, 6% in B; 3% of transaminase elevations in A vs 2% in B. Infections were detected in 3% A vs 7% in B. The combination of NIL + Peg-IFN seems to provide somewhat higher MR4.5 rates by M36 in newly diagnosed CP CML pts without inducing significant higher toxicities than NIL alone. Whether this will translate in higher TFR rates is under evaluation.

Abstract: Chronic Phase - Chronic Myeloid Leukemia (CP-CML) is a myeloproliferative disorder characterized by malignant proliferation of the granulocytic lineage without the arrest of cell differentiation. Tyrosine Kinase Inhibitors (TKI) have revolutionized CML treatment but several studies showed that a combination of TKI and Interferon alpha (IFNα) provides better clinical response. Myeloid Nuclear Differentiation Antigen (MNDA), which belongs to the hematopoietic interferon-inducible nuclear proteins with the 200-amino-acid repeat (HIN200) gene family, encodes a protein expressed in myeloid cells but whose function remains poorly understood. Because of its high expression in polymorphonuclear cells, its involvement in cell differentiation and apoptosis, and its induction by IFNα, we evaluated MNDA expression in CML cells and its modulation after incubation with IFNα. Material and methods We tested MNDA expression in several cell lines (K562, KCL22, LAMA84, TF1 and U937 (positive control)), in polymorphonuclear cells from healthy donors (HD-PMN, n=13) and in primary cells from patients with CP-CML at diagnosis (CP-CML; n=17). The relative expression of the MNDA transcript was analyzed using the 2-ΔΔCt method and was normalized to the endogenous reference gene GAPDH. HD-PMN were used as calibrator. We developed a multiparametric flow cytometry assay (CD45-V500/CD14-APC-H7/CD15-PerCpCy5.5/CD34-PC7/CD38-V450/MNDA-FITC) to detect MNDA protein in the different cell subsets, particularly in CD34+cells. Results As previously described, MNDA was poorly expressed in the K562 cell line. Similarly, mRNA was detected at low levels in two other CML cell lines (KCL22, LAMA84) and in TF1 cells, but at a high level in the U937 cell line, used as a positive control. In each cell line, the transcript expression was correlated to the protein level, as evaluated by flow cytometry (MFI ratio: 2.04±0.21, 2.36±0.24, 1.59±0.14, 1.88±0.11 and 8.77±0.54 for K562, KCL22, LAMA84, TF1 and U937, respectively (n=3)). In CP-CML primary cells, MNDA expression was greatly diminished as compared with HD-PMN in both mRNA (0.20±0.08 (n=17) vs. 1.32±0.21 (n=10); p=1.52x10-6) and protein (MFI ratio: 6.9±0.98 vs. 16.31±1.25, p=0.001). After having verified that IFNα (2000 U/ml, 16 hours) induced MNDA expression in HD mononuclear cells but not in PMN, we observed that induction of MNDA was moderate in CML cell lines K562 and LAMA84 (2-fold increase, n=3) whereas the level of MNDA mRNA was significantly increased in TF1 cells (28-fold increase, n=4). Induction in primary CML cells was variable (3/5 patients). Aiming to evaluate the expression of MNDA in leukemic stem cells (LSC), we first analyzed MNDA expression in CD34+ and CD34+/CD38- cells from HD. We observed that MNDA is down-regulated in healthy CD34+ and CD34+/CD38- cells compared to mature cells (mRNA: about 4 logs, protein: 8-10 fold lower, n=4), but we always detected a significant signal in CD34+cells (MFI ratio: 2.76±0.46, n=3). However, MNDA was not expressed by CML cells from the LSC compartment (n=4). This inhibition does not seem to be antagonized by nilotinib or IFNα (n=2). Discussion/Conclusion MNDA expression appears to be clearly down-regulated in CP-CML cells and dramatically so in the LSC compartment. In some patients, we observed sustained sensitivity to IFNα, but only in the compartment of more mature cells. This suggests early deregulation of MNDA expression which seems to be only partially dependant on differentiation. The mechanisms involved in this down-regulation remain to be elucidated but could be independent to TK activity of BCR-ABL protein and resistant to IFNα in the LSC compartment. This marked deregulation of MNDA in the LSC compartment is an additional argument in favor of intrinsic changes specific to primitive cells. Disclosures: No relevant conflicts of interest to declare.

Abstract: Background Allogeneic stem cell transplantation (Allo-SCT) from a matched related donor (MRD) is rarely performed for older patients because of lack of such a donor. Matched unrelated donor (MUD) is considered as an alternative for this population with limited access due to excessive expected toxicity. Recently, the development of allo-SCT from haploidentical donors (Haplo) with the use of high dose post-transplant cyclophosphamide showed promising results with outspreading diffusion despite HLA disparity. Donor search is early implemented when patients are referred to transplant team. The impact of this strategy on patients with high risk malignancies outcomes is not well known. We propose to address this question through an intention-to-treat trial. We also hypothesized that Haplo-SCT could be a valid alternative to MUD-SCT for older patients with hematological disease whenever allo-SCT is recommended. Study design and methods We performed a prospective, multicenter, open-label, randomized controlled trial (NCT02623309) comparing two strategies of allo-HSCT from UD or Haplo. Patients older than 55 years with hematological malignancies were randomly assigned to a Haplo and a MUD search soon after the absence of MRD was established. The goals of the study were to prospectively evaluate feasibility, safety and efficacy of these approaches in an intent-to-treat analysis and a HSCT-performed analysis. Results From February 2016 to June 2018, 108 patients were enrolled. One hundred and six patients were analyzed. Median age was 65 years (range 55-70). Diseases were myeloid malignancies in 84 patients (79%).DRI was low, intermediate and high in 5(5%), 59(55%) and 42(40%),respectively. Fifty-five patients were assigned to Haplo group and 51 patients to MUD group. Fifteen patients in Haplo group could not proceed to allo-SCT because of progression (n=9), contraindication (n=5), no donor (n=1) and 14 patients in MUD group because of progression (n=8), contraindication (n=4) and loss of indication (n=2). Among 40 patients in Haplo group, 9 patients (22%) actually received allo-SCT from MUD because of donor contraindication (n=6), donor specific antibodies (n=1), no Haplo identified (n=2). Eleven patients out of 37 patients (30%) in MUD group received allo-SCT from Haplo because of no MUD identified (n=7), donor refusal (n=2), donor contraindication (n=1), excessive search delay to identify a MUD (n=1). After cross over, 42 and 35 patients actually underwent per protocol allo-HSCT from a Haplo and a MUD, respectively. Median time from randomization to allo-SCT was 3 months (range 0.7-10). In intention-to-treat analysis from date of randomization, 2-year PFS and OS did not differ between the two groups (Haplo vs MUD arm: PFS: 42 vs 48 %, p=0.463; OS: 44 vs 61%, p=0.126). Non-relapse mortality (NRM) at 2 years was 31% for both groups while the 2-year cumulative incidence of relapse (CIR) was 14% and 18 % (p=0.99) after Haplo and MUD arm, respectively. In per-protocol analysis, with a median follow up of 26 months (range 3-34) after transplant 2-year NRM was 37% and 35% (p=0.893) after Haplo and MUD SCT, respectively. The cumulative incidence of grades 3-4 acute GVHD at 100 days was 21% and 17% (p = 0.402) in the Haplo and MUD SCT, respectively. No difference was observed in 2-year extensive chronic GVHD (Haplo vs MUD: 10% vs 15%, p = 0.534). 2-year CIR was 17% and 18% (p=0. 952) after Haplo and MUD SCT, respectively. No significant difference in 2-year PFS (Haplo vs MUD: 46% vs. 47%, p = 0.948) and OS (Haplo vs MUD: 55% vs. 52%, p = 0.944) was observed. Conclusion In an intent-to-treat analysis from the time of randomization, outcomes do not differ between the 2 groups. However, we observed that almost half of the patients did not receive the randomly attributed treatment 1/ Twenty-nine (27%) patients did not succeed to go to transplant 2/ Twenty (19%) patients were transplanted from another donor source that the one initially randomized to. It notably indicates that defining an early donor choice may be somehow dogmatic and should invite to more flexibility. We were able to demonstrate for older patients with high risk malignancies (IR: 17% Haplo; 18% MUD) a good disease control. Our per protocol analysis prospectively confirm in randomized study that Haplo-HSCT is a valid alternative in older patients. This suggests that HLA matching should not be necessarily considered as the most important factor for donor choice Disclosures Harbi: Sanofi: Honoraria. Chevallier:Incyte Corporation: Honoraria.

Abstract: Reduced intensity conditioning for allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) is often proposed for patients with comorbidities. To enhance engraftment and limit graft-versus-host disease (GVHD), antithymoglobulin (ATG) is usually used. However, the dose needed remains unclear unlike myeloablative conditioning. In order to clarify this point, we conducted a retrospective study on patients who received a reduced intensity conditioning allo-HSCT based on a 2-day fludarabine and busulfan treatment with either 1 or 2 days of ATG treatment. One hundred and eight patients received 2.5 mg/kg (ATG2.5) and another 60 patients 5 mg/kg (ATG5). The median follow-up was 36 months. The median overall survival was 39 months and the median disease-free survival 45 months. In multivariate analysis, overall nonrelapse mortality (NRM) was independently influenced by the acute GVHD grade III-IV (p 〈 0.001) and ATG dose (30 vs. 21% for ATG5; p = 0.008). Despite heterogeneity of populations, using proportional-hazard assumptions, we have been able to observe in multivariate analysis a lower NRM in the ATG5 group. This leads to a statistically higher overall survival for the ATG5 group. In conclusion, 2 days of ATG decrease NRM independently without increasing the risk of relapse or infectious disease.
