CTNI-66. ONE-YEAR FOLLOW-UP DATA OF PHASE I/II STUDY OF TIRABRUTINIB IN PATIENTS WITH RELAPSED OR REFRACTORY PRIMARY CENTRAL NERVOUS SYSTEM LYMPHOMA

Abstract

Abstract Primary central nervous system lymphoma (PCNSL) is known as one of the incurable brain tumors. In March 2020, Tirabrutinib (TIR), a second-generation oral Bruton’s tyrosine kinase inhibitor, was approved for the indication of relapsed or refractory PCNSL (rrPCNSL) based on the results of a phase I/II study in Japan (Trial registration: JapicCTI-173646). In this study, 44 Japanese patients with rrPCNSL were treated with TIR QD at 320 mg, 480 mg, or 480 mg in the fasted condition (480 mg fasted QD). The primary endpoint was overall response rate (ORR) assessed by an independent review committee according to International PCNSL Collaborative Group criteria. We previously reported the results of this study with data cutoff on June 13, 2019 (Nagane et al., the 61st American Society of Hematology Annual Meeting and Exposition in 2019). In the report, 17 of 44 patients were treated with TIR at 480 mg fasted QD which is an approved dose, and had ORR of 52.9%, median progression-free survival of 5.8 months, and median overall survival of not reached (median follow-up: 3.8 months). In 44 patients, ORR was similar among patients harboring either of the oncogenic mutants CARD11, MYD88, CD79B, or wild type. Throughout the whole patients, most common adverse events (AEs) at any grade were rash (32%), neutropenia (23%), leukopenia (18%), and lymphopenia (16%), and grade ≥3 AEs were neutropenia (9.1%), lymphopenia, leukopenia, and erythema multiforme (6.8% each). One patient with 480 mg QD had grade 5 AEs (pneumocystis jirovecii pneumonia and interstitial lung disease). We will present one-year follow-up data of this study at the meeting. As of data cutoff (February 25, 2020), 11 of 44 patients continued to receive TIR, including 6 patients with 480 mg fasted QD. Updated data for OS, duration of response, and time to onset of AEs will also be presented.
