Article Abstract

The prognosis for relapsed or refractory (R/R) nucleophosmin 1-mutated (NPM1m) acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is poor and represents an urgent unmet medical need. Revumenib, a potent, selective menin inhibitor, was recently approved for the treatment of R/R acute leukemia with a KMT2A translocation in patients aged ≥1 year based on results from the phase 1/2 AUGMENT-101 study. Here, we present results from patients with R/R NPM1m AML enrolled in the phase 2 portion of AUGMENT-101. Enrolled patients received revumenib with or without a strong CYP3A4 inhibitor every 12 hours in 28-day cycles. Primary end points were rate of complete remission (CR) or CR with partial hematologic recovery (CRh; CR + CRh), safety, and tolerability. Secondary end points included overall response rate (ORR) and duration of response. As of 18 September 2024, 84 patients received ≥1 dose of revumenib. Median age was 63 years; 1 patient was aged <18 years. The protocol-defined, efficacy-evaluable population for the primary analysis included 64 adult patients (≥3 previous lines of therapy, 35.9%; previous venetoclax, 75.0%). The CR + CRh rate was 23.4% (1-sided P = .0014); the ORR was 46.9%. Median duration of CR + CRh was 4.7 months. Of 30 responders, 5 (16.7%) proceeded to hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT) and 3 resumed revumenib after HSCT. Treatment-related adverse events led to treatment discontinuation in 4 patients (4.8%). Revumenib demonstrated clinically meaningful responses in this heavily pretreated, older population with NPM1m AML, including remissions that enabled HSCT. The safety profile of revumenib was consistent with previously reported results. This trial was registered at www.clinicaltrials.gov as #NCT04065399.

Background: Relapsed or refractory cases of pediatric acute myeloid leukemia (AML) have poor outcomes despite advancements in chemotherapy and hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT). While a second HSCT is often a salvage option, its outcomes vary widely, and prognostic factors remain unclear.

Objectives: This study aimed to evaluate outcomes and identify prognostic factors in pediatric patients with AML who underwent multiple HSCTs.

Blinatumomab is a bispecific T-cell engager that has recently transformed front-line treatment for many patients with Philadelphia chromosome (Ph)-negative B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (B-ALL). It was originally studied in relapsed/refractory disease, then moved to targeting measurable residual disease (MRD), and has since been shown to improve outcomes for almost every age group when added to consolidation chemotherapy. The evidence supporting blinatumomab is most robust in adult and standard-risk pediatric age groups, but its benefit in adolescents and young adults and high-risk pediatric patients is not yet understood.

Plasma cell myeloma (multiple myeloma) is a blood cancer characterized by the clonal proliferation of plasma cells in the bone marrow. Treatment strategies evolve year by year, new drugs getting Food and Drug Administration (FDA)-approved each year. Chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) therapies are an advanced form of immunotherapy that engineer T cells to recognize and destroy cancer cells.

With upfront use of triplet- and quadruplet-based regimens coupled with autologous stem cell transplant (ASCT) and maintenance lenalidomide, a high proportion of multiple myeloma (MM) patients are achieving deep and durable responses. Yet, myeloma invariably relapses, with refractoriness to one or more drugs at first relapse. This therapeutic gap has been partially filled by T-cell engager (TCE) therapies that have demonstrated remarkable response rates and prolonged remissions in heavily pretreated patients with MM, providing off-the-shelf immunotherapy options leading to the U.

Lymphomas are a group of malignant proliferations of B, T or NK-lymphoid cells at different stages of maturation. While they primarily occur in lymph nodes or lymphatic tissues, they can also involve bone marrow, blood, or other organs. Despite advances in treatment, many patients experience relapse, or develop refractory disease, prompting the development of new therapies.
