Abstract: Immunogenetic association studies may give rise to new hypotheses on the immune surveillance of cancer. We hypothesized that certain combinations of killer immunoglobulin-like receptor (KIR) and HLA genotypes may enhance natural killer (NK) cell immunity against nascent acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and, thereby, lead to a skewed genotype distribution among patients. For this purpose, we analyzed KIR and HLA genotypes of 1767 German patients with AML and compared the results with that of the data of 51 890 German volunteers who had registered with German bone marrow donor file (DKMS). Patient samples were retrieved from the Collaborative Biobank and the biorepository of the Study Alliance Leukemia. All samples were genotyped with high-resolution amplicon-based next-generation sequencing. Because of the large number of controls, this study was very sensitive to detect the impact of KIR genotype. Knowledge on KIRs and their cognate HLA ligands allowed for testing of several hypotheses of NK cell–mediated endogenous leukemia surveillance. We did not find significant differences between the 2 cohorts in regard to the presence or absence of single KIR genes. When grouped based on telomeric or centromeric gene content, the major haplotypes A/A, A/B, and B/B were equally distributed among patients and control subjects. Using information on KIRs and their HLA ligands, we further tested receptor-ligand models and summation models without revealing markedly significant differences between patients and controls, albeit we observed a trend pointing at a minor protective effect of a low number of inhibitory KIR/KIR-ligand pairs. The results suggest that the KIR/KIR-ligand genotype has no effect on the susceptibility for the development of de novo AML.

Abstract: The phase III study was designed to compare event‐free survival (EFS) after treosulfan‐based conditioning with a widely applied reduced‐intensity conditioning (RIC) busulfan regimen in older or comorbid patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) or myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) undergoing allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT). A previously reported confirmatory interim analysis of the randomized clinical study including 476 patients demonstrated statistically significant noninferiority for treosulfan with clinically meaningful improvement in EFS. Here, the final study results and pre‐specified subgroup analyses of all 570 randomized patients with completed longer‐term follow‐up are presented. Patients presenting HCT‐specific comorbidity index 〉 2 or aged ≥50 years were randomly assigned (1:1) to intravenous (IV) fludarabine with either treosulfan (30 g/m 2 IV) or busulfan (6.4 mg/kg IV) after stratification by disease risk group, donor type, and participating institution. The primary endpoint was EFS with disease recurrence, graft failure, or death from any cause as events. EFS of patients (median age 60 years) was superior after treosulfan compared to RIC busulfan: 36‐months‐EFS rate 59.5% (95% CI, 52.2–66.1) vs. 49.7% (95% CI, 43.3–55.7) with a hazard ratio (HR) of 0.64 (95% CI, 0.49–0.84), p  = 0.0006. Likewise, overall survival (OS) with treosulfan was superior compared to busulfan: 36‐month‐OS rate 66.8% vs. 56.3%; HR 0.64 (95% CI, 0.48–0.87), p  = 0.0037. Post hoc analyses revealed that these differences were consistent with the confirmatory interim analysis, and thereby the treosulfan regimen appears particularly suitable for older AML and MDS patients.

Abstract: Overall survival remains poor in older patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) with less than 10% being alive after 5 years. In recent studies, a significant improvement in event-free, relapse-free and overall survival was shown by adding gemtuzumab ozogamicin (GO), a humanized antibody-drug conjugate directed against CD33, to intensive induction therapy once or in a sequential dosing schedule. Glasdegib, the small-molecule inhibitor of smoothened (SMO), also showed improved overall survival in patients not eligible for intensive chemotherapy when combined with low-dose cytarabine compared to low-dose cytarabine alone. These findings warrant further investigations in the phase III GnG trial. Methods/Design This is a randomized phase III trial with measurable residual disease (MRD) after induction therapy and event-free survival (EFS) as primary endpoints. The two research questions are addressed in a 2 by 2 factorial design. Patients age 60 years and older are upfront randomized 1:1 in one of the two induction arms: GO administered to intensive induction therapy on days 1,4, and 7 versus GO administered once on day 1 (GO-147 versus GO-1), and double-blinded 1:1 in one of the subsequent treatment arms glasdegib vs. placebo as adjunct to consolidation therapy and as single-agent maintenance therapy for six months. Chemotherapy backbone for induction therapy consists of standard 7 + 3 schedule with cytarabine 200 mg/m 2 continuously days 1 to 7, daunorubicin 60 mg/m 2 days 1, 2, and 3 and high-dose cytarabine (1 g/m 2 , bi-daily, days 1, 2, and 3) for consolidation therapy. Addressing two primary endpoints, MRD-negativity after induction therapy and event-free survival (EFS), 252 evaluable patients are needed to reject each of the two null hypotheses at a two-sided significance level of 2.5% with a power of at least 85%. Ethics and dissemination Ethical approval and approvals from the local and federal competent authorities were granted. Trial results will be reported via peer-reviewed journals and presented at conferences and scientific meetings. Trial status Protocol version: 1st version 20.10.2020, no amendments yet. Study initiation on February 16, 2021. First patient was recruited on April 1st. Trial registration ClinicalTrials.gov NCT04093505 ; EudraCT 2019-003913-32. Registered on October 30, 2018.

Abstract: About 50% of older patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) fail to attain complete remission (CR) following cytarabine plus anthracycline-based induction therapy. Salvage chemotherapy regimens are based on high-dose cytarabine (HiDAC), which is frequently combined with mitoxantrone (HAM regimen). However, CR rates remain low, with less than one-third of the patients achieving a CR. FLT3 -ITD has consistently been identified as an unfavorable molecular marker in both relapsed and refractory (r/r)-AML. One-quarter of patients who received midostaurin are refractory to induction therapy and relapse rate at 2 years exceeds 40%. The oral second-generation bis-aryl urea tyrosine kinase inhibitor quizartinib is a very selective FLT3 inhibitor, has a high capacity for sustained FLT3 inhibition, and has an acceptable toxicity profile. Methods In this multicenter, upfront randomized phase II trial, all patients receive quizartinib combined with HAM (cytarabine 3g/m 2 bidaily day one to day three, mitoxantrone 10mg/m 2 days two and three) during salvage therapy. Efficacy is assessed by comparison to historical controls based on the matched threshold crossing approach with achievement of CR, complete remission with incomplete hematologic recovery (CRi), or complete remission with partial recovery of peripheral blood counts (CRh) as primary endpoint. During consolidation therapy (chemotherapy and allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation), patients receive either prophylactic quizartinib therapy or measurable residual disease (MRD)-triggered preemptive continuation therapy with quizartinib according to up-front randomization. The matched threshold crossing approach is a novel study-design to enhance the classic single-arm trial design by including matched historical controls from previous clinical studies. It overcomes common disadvantages of single-armed and small randomized studies, since the expected outcome of the observed study population can be adjusted based on the matched controls with a comparable distribution of known prognostic and predictive factors. Furthermore, balanced treatment groups lead to stable statistical models. However, one of the limitations of our study is the inability to adjust for unobserved or unknown confounders. Addressing the primary endpoint, CR/CRi/CRh after salvage therapy, the maximal sample size of 80 patients is assessed generating a desirable power of the used adaptive design, assuming a logistic regression is performed at a one-sided significance level α =0.05, the aspired power is 0.8, and the number of matching partners per intervention patient is at least 1. After enrolling 20 patients, the trial sample size will be recalculated in an interim analysis based on a conditional power argument. Conclusion Currently, there is no commonly accepted standard for salvage chemotherapy treatment. The objective of the salvage therapy is to reduce leukemic burden, achieve the best possible remission, and perform a hemopoietic stem-cell transplantation. Thus, in patients with FLT3 -ITD mutation, the comparison of quizartinib with intensive salvage therapy versus chemotherapy alone appears as a logical consequence in terms of efficacy and safety. Ethics and dissemination Ethical approval and approvals from the local and federal competent authorities were granted. Trial results will be reported via peer-reviewed journals and presented at conferences and scientific meetings. Trial registration ClinicalTrials.gov NCT03989713; EudraCT Number: 2018-002675-17.

Abstract: Mutations of the isocitrate dehydrogenase-1 (IDH1) and IDH2 genes are among the most frequent alterations in acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and can be found in ∼20% of patients at diagnosis. Among 4930 patients (median age, 56 years; interquartile range, 45-66) with newly diagnosed, intensively treated AML, we identified IDH1 mutations in 423 (8.6%) and IDH2 mutations in 575 (11.7%). Overall, there were no differences in response rates or survival for patients with mutations in IDH1 or IDH2 compared with patients without mutated IDH1/2. However, distinct clinical and comutational phenotypes of the most common subtypes of IDH1/2 mutations could be associated with differences in outcome. IDH1-R132C was associated with increased age, lower white blood cell (WBC) count, less frequent comutation of NPM1 and FLT3 internal tandem mutation (ITD) as well as with lower rate of complete remission and a trend toward reduced overall survival (OS) compared with other IDH1 mutation variants and wild-type (WT) IDH1/2. In our analysis, IDH2-R172K was associated with significantly lower WBC count, more karyotype abnormalities, and less frequent comutations of NPM1 and/or FLT3-ITD. Among patients within the European LeukemiaNet 2017 intermediate- and adverse-risk groups, relapse-free survival and OS were significantly better for those with IDH2-R172K compared with WT IDH, providing evidence that AML with IDH2-R172K could be a distinct entity with a specific comutation pattern and favorable outcome. In summary, the presented data from a large cohort of patients with IDH1/2 mutated AML indicate novel and clinically relevant findings for the most common IDH mutation subtypes.

Abstract: Recurrence of cytomegalovirus reactivation remains a major cause of morbidity and mortality following allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. Monitoring cytomegalovirus-specific cellular immunity using a standardized assay might improve the risk stratification of patients. A prospective multicenter study was conducted in 175 intermediate- and high-risk allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplant recipients under preemptive antiviral therapy. Cytomegalovirus-specific cellular immunity was measured using a standardized IFN-γ ELISpot assay (T-Track® CMV). Primary aim was to evaluate the suitability of measuring cytomegalovirus-specific immunity after end of treatment for a first cytomegalovirus reactivation to predict recurrent reactivation. 40/101 (39.6%) patients with a first cytomegalovirus reactivation experienced recurrent reactivations, mainly in the high-risk group (cytomegalovirus-seronegative donor/cytomegalovirus-seropositive recipient). The positive predictive value of T-Track® CMV (patients with a negative test after the first reactivation experienced at least one recurrent reactivation) was 84.2% in high-risk patients. Kaplan-Meier analysis revealed a higher probability of recurrent cytomegalovirus reactivation in high-risk patients with a negative test after the first reactivation (hazard ratio 2.73; p=0.007). Interestingly, a post-hoc analysis considering T-Track® CMV measurements at day 100 post-transplantation, a time point highly relevant for outpatient care, showed a positive predictive value of 90.0% in high-risk patients. Our results indicate that standardized cytomegalovirus-specific cellular immunity monitoring may allow improved risk stratification and management of recurrent cytomegalovirus reactivation after hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. This study was registered at www.clinicaltrials.gov as #NCT02156479.

Abstract: Purpose: The enhancer of zeste homolog 2 (EZH2) is a histone methyltransferase and key epigenetic regulator involved in transcriptional repression and embryonic development. Loss of EZH2 activity by inactivating mutations is associated with poor prognosis in myeloid malignancies such as MDS. More recently, EZH2 inactivation was shown to induce chemoresistance in acute myeloid leukemia (AML) (Göllner et al., 2017). Data on the frequency and prognostic role of EZH2-mutations in AML are rare and mostly confined to smaller cohorts. To investigate the prevalence and prognostic impact of this alteration in more detail, we analyzed a large cohort of AML patients (n = 1604) for EZH2 mutations. Patients and Methods: All patients analyzed had newly diagnosed AML, were registered in clinical protocols of the Study Alliance Leukemia (SAL) (AML96, AML2003 or AML60+, SORAML) and had available material at diagnosis. Screening for EZH2 mutations and associated alterations was done using Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) (TruSight Myeloid Sequencing Panel, Illumina) on an Illumina MiSeq-system using bone marrow or peripheral blood. Detection was conducted with a defined cut-off of 5% variant allele frequency (VAF). All samples below the predefined threshold were classified as EZH2 wild type (wt). Patient clinical characteristics and co-mutations were analyzed according to the mutational status. Furthermore, multivariate analysis was used to identify the impact of EZH2 mutations on outcome. Results: EZH2-mutations were found in 63 of 1604 (4%) patients, with a median VAF of 44% (range 6-97%; median coverage 3077x). Mutations were detected within several exons (2-6; 8-12; 14-20) with highest frequencies in exons 17 and 18 (29%). The majority of detected mutations (71% missense and 29% nonsense/frameshift) were single nucleotide variants (SNVs) (87%), followed by small indel mutations. Descriptive statistics of clinical parameters and associated co-mutations revealed significant differences between EZH2-mut and -wt patients. At diagnosis, patients with EZH2 mutations were significantly older (median age 59 yrs) than EZH2-wt patients (median 56 yrs; p=0.044). In addition, significantly fewer EZH2-mut patients (71%) were diagnosed with de novo AML compared to EZH2-wt patients (84%; p=0.036). Accordingly, EZH2-mut patients had a higher rate of secondary acute myeloid leukemia (sAML) (21%), evolving from prior MDS or after prior chemotherapy (tAML) (8%; p=0.036). Also, bone marrow (and blood) blast counts differed between the two groups (EZH2-mut patients had significantly lower BM and PB blast counts; p=0.013). In contrast, no differences were observed for WBC counts, karyotype, ECOG performance status and ELN-2017 risk category compared to EZH2-wt patients. Based on cytogenetics according to the 2017 ELN criteria, 35% of EZH2-mut patients were categorized with favorable risk, 28% had intermediate and 37% adverse risk. No association was seen with -7/7q-. In the group of EZH2-mut AML patients, significantly higher rates of co-mutations were detected in RUNX1 (25%), ASXL1 (22%) and NRAS (25%) compared to EZH2-wt patients (with 10%; 8% and 15%, respectively). Vice versa, concomitant mutations in NPM1 were (non-significantly) more common in EZH2-wt patients (33%) vs EZH2-mut patients (21%). For other frequently mutated genes in AML there was no major difference between EZH2-mut and -wt patients, e.g. FLT3ITD (13%), FLT3TKD (10%) and CEBPA (24%), as well as genes encoding epigenetic modifiers, namely, DNMT3A (21%), IDH1/2 (11/14%), and TET2 (21%). The correlation of EZH2 mutational status with clinical outcomes showed no effect of EZH2 mutations on the rate of complete remission (CR), relapse free survival (RFS) and overall survival (OS) (with a median OS of 18.4 and 17.1 months for EZH2-mut and -wt patients, respectively) in the univariate analyses. Likewise, the multivariate analysis with clinical variable such as age, cytogenetics and WBC using Cox proportional hazard regression, revealed that EZH2 mutations were not an independent risk factor for OS or RFS. Conclusion EZH mutations are recurrent alterations in patients with AML. The association with certain clinical factors and typical mutations such as RUNX1 and ASXL1 points to the fact that these mutations are associated with secondary AML. Our data do not indicate that EZH2 mutations represent an independent prognostic factor.

Abstract: Background Venetoclax (VEN)-based combination therapy with hypomethylating agents (HMA) has been approved for first-line treatment in patients ineligible for intensive treatment based on two randomized trials. There is some evidence for efficacy also in the in relapsed/ refractory setting (R/R), but comparative controlled data is lacking. Here, we report our experience of VEN-Azacitidine (AZA) in R/R AML salvage treatment and bridge to allogeneic cell transplantation (allo-HCT) in fit patients compared to historical data from the Study Alliance Leukemia (SAL) registry (ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT03188874). Design/Methods We analyzed all patients with R/R AML after initial intensive therapy, who started VEN-AZA salvage treatment at the University Hospital Heidelberg, between October 2018 and October 2020. Patients, who were bridged to allo-HCT were compared in a multivariable analysis to data of R/R AML patients from the SAL registry receiving an allo-HCT. Results: A total of 26 patients (median age 60 years, range 23 to 79) were included. All patients initially received intensive therapy, 16 patients (62%) had been refractory to intensive induction therapy with DA (daunorubicin, cytarabine) (11 patients)/ CPX-351 (2 patients) or to an intensive salvage therapy regime with HAM (2 patients)/ Cytarabin-Bortezomib (1 patient). Ten patients (38%) had morphologic (7 patients) or molecular relapse (3 patients) after intensive first line therapy. The distribution of AML according to WHO-2016 classification was n=10 recurrent genetic abnormalities (n= 7, mutated NPM1; n=1, biallelic CEBPA mutations; n=1, mutated RUNX1; n=1, CBFB-MYH11), n=10 AML with MRC, n=6 AML NOS. According to the 2017 ELN classification, 9 patients (34,5%) had low risk, 8 (31%) intermediate risk and 9 (34,5%) adverse risk disease. All patients received AZA 75mg/m² for 7 days combined with VEN 400mg/day after initial ramp up or a reduced dose of 100mg/day in case of co-medication with azoles in 28 days cycles. Best response was CR/CRi in 58% (n=15), PR in 23% (n=6) patients. Day 30-mortality was 0%, day 60-mortality was 4% (n=1). Allo-HCT was performed in 20 patients (77%). Pre-Allo-HCT remission status was CR/CRi in 11 (55%), PR in 4 (20%) patients and MLFS in 1 patient and 4 patients had active disease (n=3, relapse after achieving CR/CRi on VEN-AZA, n=1 refractory to VEN-AZA.). At the time of analysis 15 (75%) of the 20 bridged patients were alive and 11 (55%) are still in CR resulting in a median relapse-free survival in bridged patients of 406 days, whereas all patients not proceeding to allo-HCT died after a median of 139 days. In total, 63 patients with R/R AML were identified in the SAL-registry proceeding to allo-HCT with non VEN-based salvage attempt. Pre-Allo-HCT remission status was CR/CRi in 18 (28%), PR in 15 (24%), unknown in 13 patients (21%) and 17 (27%) patients had active disease (n=9 relapsed, n=8 refractory). Patients of the SAL registry were younger (median, 55 years; range, 22-75 years) and more patients were ELN-int (low risk, 32%, n=20; int, 52%, n=33, adv, 16%, n=10). Median follow-up in the VEN-AZA and the SAL cohorts were 1.4 years and 4.6 years, respectively. Cox-regression modeling of survival measured from the date of being refractory/relapsed revealed a non-significant effect of the cohorts favoring the VEN-AZA salvage therapy (HR, 0.87, p=0.73). However, stratified univariable survival analysis revealed in trend better survival (p=0.10) in the VEN-AZA compared to the SAL cohort with 77% (95%-CI, 62-95%) and 74% (95%-CI, 57-97%) as well as 84% (95%-CI, 76-94%) and 52% (95-CI, 41-68%) 1- and 2-years survival, respectively. Conclusion: Our data confirms the efficacy of VEN-AZA in patients with R/R AML and underlines its potential as an effective strategy for bridging to successful allo-HCT.
