The ALPINE trial established the superiority of zanubrutinib over ibrutinib in patients with relapsed/refractory chronic lymphocytic leukemia and small lymphocytic lymphoma; here, we present data from the final comparative analysis with extended follow-up. Overall, 652 patients received zanubrutinib (n = 327) or ibrutinib (n = 325). At an overall median follow-up of 42.5 months, progression-free survival benefit with zanubrutinib vs ibrutinib was sustained (hazard ratio [HR], 0.68; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.54-0.84), including in patients with del(17p)/TP53 mutation (HR, 0.51; 95% CI, 0.33-0.78) and across multiple sensitivity analyses. Overall response rate remained higher with zanubrutinib compared with ibrutinib (85.6% vs 75.4%); responses deepened over time with complete response/complete response with incomplete bone marrow recovery rates of 11.6% (zanubrutinib) and 7.7% (ibrutinib). Although median overall survival has not been reached in either treatment group, fewer zanubrutinib patients have died than ibrutinib patients (HR, 0.77 [95% CI, 0.55-1.06]). With median exposure time of 41.2 and 37.8 months in zanubrutinib and ibrutinib arms, respectively, the most common nonhematologic adverse events included COVID-19-related infection (46.0% vs 33.3%), diarrhea (18.8% vs 25.6%), upper respiratory tract infection (29.3% vs 19.8%), and hypertension (27.2% vs 25.3%). Cardiac events were lower with zanubrutinib (25.9% vs 35.5%) despite similar rates of hypertension. Incidence of atrial fibrillation/flutter was lower with zanubrutinib vs ibrutinib (7.1% vs 17.0%); no cardiac deaths were reported with zanubrutinib vs 6 cardiac deaths with ibrutinib. This analysis, at 42.5 months median follow-up, demonstrates that zanubrutinib remains more efficacious than ibrutinib with an improved overall safety/tolerability profile. This trial was registered at www.ClinicalTrials.gov as #NCT03734016.

BACKGROUND: Up to 65% of patients with chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) who are treated with imatinib do not achieve sustained deep molecular response, which is required to attempt treatment-free remission. Asciminib is the only approved BCR::ABL1 inhibitor that Specifically Targets the ABL Myristoyl Pocket. This unique mechanism of action allows asciminib to be combined with adenosine triphosphate-competitive tyrosine kinase inhibitors to prevent resistance and enhance efficacy. The phase II ASC4MORE trial investigated the strategy of adding asciminib to imatinib in patients who have not achieved deep molecular response with imatinib. METHODS: In ASC4MORE, 84 patients with CML in chronic phase not achieving deep molecular response after ≥ 1 year of imatinib therapy were randomized to asciminib 40 or 60 mg once daily (QD) add-on to imatinib 400 mg QD, continued imatinib 400 mg QD, or switch to nilotinib 300 mg twice daily. RESULTS: More patients in the asciminib 40- and 60-mg QD add-on arms (19.0% and 28.6%, respectively) achieved MR4.5 (BCR::ABL1 ≤ 0.0032% on the International Scale) at week 48 (primary endpoint) than patients in the continued imatinib (0.0%) and switch to nilotinib (4.8%) arms. Fewer patients discontinued asciminib 40- and 60-mg QD add-on treatment (14.3% and 23.8%, respectively) than imatinib (76.2%, including crossover patients) and nilotinib (47.6%). Asciminib add-on was tolerable, with rates of AEs and AEs leading to discontinuation less than those with nilotinib, although higher than those with continued imatinib (as expected in these patients who had already been tolerating imatinib for ≥ 1 year). No new or worsening safety signals were observed with asciminib add-on vs the known asciminib monotherapy safety profile. CONCLUSIONS: Overall, these results support asciminib add-on as a treatment strategy to help patients with CML in chronic phase stay on therapy to safely achieve rapid and deep response, although further investigation is needed before this strategy is incorporated into clinical practice.

OBJECTIVE: To examine disease and target engagement biomarkers in the RISE-SSc trial of riociguat in early diffuse cutaneous systemic sclerosis and their potential to predict the response to treatment. METHODS: Patients were randomized to riociguat (n = 60) or placebo (n = 61) for 52 weeks. Skin biopsies and plasma/serum samples were obtained at baseline and week 14. Plasma cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cGMP) was assessed using radio-immunoassay. α-Smooth muscle actin (αSMA) and skin thickness were determined by immunohistochemistry, mRNA markers of fibrosis by qRT-PCR in skin biopsies, and serum CXC motif chemokine ligand 4 (CXCL-4) and soluble platelet endothelial cell adhesion molecule-1 (sPECAM-1) by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. RESULTS: By week 14, cGMP increased by 94 (78)% with riociguat and 10 (39)% with placebo (P < 0.001, riociguat vs placebo). Serum sPECAM-1 and CXCL-4 decreased with riociguat vs placebo (P = 0.004 and P = 0.008, respectively). There were no differences in skin collagen markers between the two groups. Higher baseline serum sPECAM-1 or the detection of αSMA-positive cells in baseline skin biopsies was associated with a larger reduction of modified Rodnan skin score from baseline at week 52 with riociguat vs placebo (interaction P-values 0.004 and 0.02, respectively). CONCLUSION: Plasma cGMP increased with riociguat, suggesting engagement with the nitric oxide-soluble guanylate cyclase-cGMP pathway. Riociguat was associated with a significant reduction in sPECAM-1 (an angiogenic biomarker) vs placebo. Elevated sPECAM-1 and the presence of αSMA-positive skin cells may help to identify patients who could benefit from riociguat in terms of skin fibrosis.

BACKGROUND: To evaluate the outcomes of first-line imatinib versus nilotinib treatment for chronic myeloid leukemia in the chronic phase (CML-CP) in real-world clinical practice. METHODS: A propensity score analysis was performed to eliminate imbalances between the treatment groups. In the analysis, 163 patients in the nilotinib group and 163 patients in the matched imatinib group were retrospectively evaluated. RESULTS: Nilotinib-treated patients achieved complete cytogenetic response (CCyR) and major molecular response more rapidly than imatinib-treated patients. However, there was no significant difference in 5-year overall survival (OS) or progression-free survival (PFS) between the two groups (OS: 94.3% vs. 90.5%, p = 0.602; PFS: 92.9% vs. 88.0%, p = 0.614). Nilotinib-treated patients had a higher failure-free survival (FFS) and event-free survival (EFS) than imatinib-treated patients (FFS: 71.7% vs. 54.3%, p = 0.040; EFS: 71.7% vs. 53.5%, p = 0.025). CONCLUSIONS: This retrospective analysis from clinical practice did not confirm any benefit of frontline nilotinib treatment for OS and PFS; however, it did demonstrate higher FFS and EFS in the nilotinib cohort.

OBJECTIVE: We report patient-reported outcomes (PROs) measuring health-related quality of life (HRQoL) from the ROSEWOOD trial (NCT03332017), which demonstrated superior efficacy and a manageable safety profile with zanubrutinib plus obinutuzumab (ZO) versus obinutuzumab (O) in patients with heavily pretreated relapsed/refractory follicular lymphoma (R/R FL). METHODS: PROs were assessed using the European Organisation for Research and Treatment of Cancer Quality of Life Questionnaire - Core 30 (EORTC QLQ-C30) and EQ-5D-5L questionnaires at baseline and subsequently every 12 weeks. All QLQ-C30 domains and EQ-5D-5L visual analog scale (VAS) scores were analyzed descriptively. At the key clinical timepoints (weeks 12 and 24), a mixed model for repeated measures (MMRM) analysis was used to evaluate the key PRO endpoints, including global health status, physical and role functioning, and symptoms of fatigue, pain, diarrhea, and nausea/vomiting. Clinically meaningful change was defined as a ≥ 5-point mean difference from baseline and between the ZO and O arms. RESULTS: Patients were randomized to ZO (n = 145) or O (n = 72). By week 48, descriptive analysis results indicated that patients in the ZO arm demonstrated improved outcomes in role functioning and fatigue and nausea/vomiting symptoms, compared with those in the O arm. Both groups experienced improvements in pain symptoms. EQ-5D-5L VAS scores showed no observable differences between treatment arms through week 48. MMRM analysis revealed that the global health status/quality of life of patients treated with ZO improved, as did fatigue, at week 12. At week 24, patients in the ZO arm experienced a clinically meaningful improvement in role functioning, pain, and fatigue. CONCLUSIONS: In patients with R/R FL, ZO was associated with improved PROs compared with O. These findings suggest that zanubrutinib contributed clinically meaningful benefits to patient HRQoL when added to obinutuzumab. TRIAL REGISTRATION: The ROSEWOOD trial is registered on ClinicalTrials.gov (BGB-3111-212; ClinicalTrials.gov identifier: NCT03332017).

BACKGROUND: Evobrutinib, a Bruton's tyrosine kinase (BTK) inhibitor, has shown preliminary efficacy in people with relapsing multiple sclerosis in a phase 2 trial. Here, we aimed to compare the safety and efficacy of evobrutinib with the active comparator teriflunomide in people with relapsing multiple sclerosis. METHODS: EvolutionRMS1 and evolutionRMS2 were two multicentre, randomised, double-blind, double-dummy, active-controlled, phase 3 trials conducted at 701 multiple sclerosis centres and neurology clinics in 52 countries. Adults aged 18-55 years with relapsing multiple sclerosis (Expanded Disability Status Scale [EDSS] score of 0·0-5·5) were included. Participants were randomly assigned (1:1) using a central interactive web response system to receive either evobrutinib (45 mg twice per day with placebo once per day) or teriflunomide (14 mg once per day with placebo twice per day), all taken orally and in an unfasted state, with randomisation stratified by geographical region and baseline EDSS. All study staff and participants were masked to the study interventions. The primary endpoint for each study was annualised relapse rate based on adjudicated qualified relapses up to 156 weeks, assessed in the full analysis set (defined as all randomly assigned participants) with a negative binomial model. These studies are registered with ClinicalTrials.gov (NCT04338022 for evolutionRMS1 and NCT04338061 for evolutionRMS2, both are terminated). FINDINGS: The primary analysis was done using data for 2290 randomly assigned participants collected from June 12, 2020, to Oct 2, 2023. 1124 participants were included in the full analysis set in evolutionRMS1 (560 in the evobrutinib group and 564 in the teriflunomide group) and 1166 in evolutionRMS2 (583 in each group). 751 (66·8%) participants were female and 373 (33·1%) were male in evolutionRMS1, whereas 783 (67·2%) were female and 383 (32·8%) were male in evolutionRMS2. Annualised relapse rate was 0·15 (95% CI 0·12-0·18 with evobrutinib vs 0·14 [0·11-0·18] with teriflunomide (adjusted RR 1·02 [0·75-1·39]; p=0·55) in evolutionRMS1 and 0·11 (0·09-0·13 vs 0·11 [0·09-0·13]; adjusted RR 1·00 [0·74-1·35]; p=0·51) in evolutionRMS2. The pooled proportion of participants with any treatment-emergent adverse event (TEAE) was similar between treatment groups (976 [85·6%] of 1140 with evobrutinib vs 999 [87·2%] of 1146 with teriflunomide). The most frequently reported TEAEs were COVID-19 (223 [19·6%] with evobrutinib vs 223 [19·5%] with teriflunomide), alanine aminotransferase increased (173 [15·2%] vs 204 [17·8%]), aspartate aminotransferase increased (110 [9·6%] vs 131 [11·4%]), and headache (175 [15·4%] vs 176 [15·4%]). Serious TEAE incidence rates were higher with evobrutinib than teriflunomide (86 [7·5%] vs 64 [5·6%]). Liver enzyme elevations at least 5 × upper limit of normal were more common with evobrutinib than with teriflunomide, particularly in the first 12 weeks (55 [5·0%] vs nine [<1%]). Three people who received evobrutinib and one who received teriflunomide met the biochemical definition of Hy's law; all cases resolved after discontinuation of treatment. There were two deaths (one in each group), neither related to study treatment. INTERPRETATION: The efficacy of evobrutinib was not superior to that of teriflunomide. Together, efficacy and liver-related safety findings do not support the use of evobrutinib in people with relapsing multiple sclerosis. FUNDING: Merck.

The therapeutic potential of targeting PI3K/AKT/PTEN signalling in B-cell malignancies remains attractive. Whilst PI3K-α/δ inhibitors demonstrate clinical benefit in certain B-cell lymphomas, PI3K signalling inhibitors have been inadequate in relapsed/refractory diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) in part, due to treatment related toxicities. Clinically, AKT inhibitors exhibit a differentiated tolerability profile offering an alternative approach for treating patients with B-cell malignancies. To explore how AKT inhibition complements other potential therapeutics in the treatment of DLBCL patients, an in vitro combination screen was conducted across a panel of DLCBL cell lines. The AKT inhibitor, capivasertib, in combination with the BCL-2 inhibitor, venetoclax, produced notable therapeutic benefit in preclinical models of DLBCL. Capivasertib and venetoclax rapidly induced caspase and PARP cleavage in GCB-DLBCL PTEN wildtype cell lines and those harbouring PTEN mutations or reduced PTEN protein, driving prolonged tumour growth inhibition in DLBCL cell line and patient derived xenograft lymphoma models. The addition of the rituximab further deepened the durability of capivasertib and venetoclax responses in a RCHOP refractory DLBCL in vivo models. These findings provide preclinical evidence for the rational treatment combination of AKT and BCL-2 inhibitors using capivasertib and venetoclax respectively alongside anti-CD20 antibody supplementation for treatment of patients with DLBCL.
