Acute Myeloid Leukemia: Novel Therapy, excluding Transplantation: Targeted Therapy

559  Initial Report of the Beat AML Umbrella Study for Previously Untreated AML: Evidence of Feasibility and Early Success in Molecularly Driven Phase 1 and 2 Studies

Amy Burd, et al.

The Abstract concludes: Our data support the feasibility of a rapid precision medicine approach in older pts with previously untreated AML. The Beat AML trial is a model for dynamic, mechanism- based clinical trials in blood cancers where genomic analysis may inform, accelerate, and improve drug development.

 

560  Ivosidenib or Enasidenib Combined with Induction and Consolidation Chemotherapy in Patients with Newly Diagnosed AML with an IDH1 or IDH2 Mutation Is Safe, Effective, and Leads to MRD-Negative Complete Remissions

Eytan M. Stein, et al.

The Abstract concludes: Ivosidenib or enasidenib in combination with induction and consolidation therapy has an acceptable safety profile with robust remission rates, MRD-negative CRs, and mutation clearance in a population of older, high-risk patients with mIDH AML. The clinical benefit of adding ivosidenib or enasidenib to induction, consolidation and maintenance therapy for patients with newly diagnosed mIDH AML will be further evaluated in a randomized phase 3 trial.

 

561  Ivosidenib (AG-120) Induced Durable Remissions and Transfusion Independence in Patients with IDH1-Mutant Untreated AML: Results from a Phase 1 Dose Escalation and Expansion Study

Gail J. Roboz, et al.

The Abstract concludes: Ivosidenib monotherapy was well tolerated in patients with untreated mIDH1 AML, and induced durable remissions and transfusion independence in a molecularly defined, poor prognosis, elderly patient population with high rates of secondary AML, and prior hypomethylating agent exposure. These results support the role of ivosidenib as an effective, oral, targeted treatment for patients with untreated mIDH1 AML who are not eligible for intensive chemotherapy.

 

562  Combination of Enasidenib and Venetoclax Shows Superior Anti-Leukemic Activity Against IDH2 Mutated AML in Patient-Derived Xenograft Models

Severine Cathelin, et al.

The Abstract concludes: Our findings demonstrate that concurrent combination therapy with enasidenib and venetoclax is a promising therapeutic approach for IDH2-mutated AML. Responsiveness to combination therapy is associated with enasidenib-induced differentiation and reduction in anti-apoptotic protein expression. Our findings support ongoing and future clinical investigations in combination therapies with mutant IDH and BCL-2 inhibitors.

 

563  Efficacy and Safety of Single-Agent Quizartinib (Q), a Potent and Selective FLT3 Inhibitor (FLT3i), in Patients (pts) with FLT3-Internal Tandem Duplication (FLT3-ITD)–Mutated Relapsed/Refractory (R/R) Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML) Enrolled in the Global, Phase 3, Randomized Controlled Quantum-R Trial

Jorge E. Cortes, et al.

The Abstract concludes: This report confirms the survival benefit observed with single-agent Q compared with SC in pts with R/R FLT3-ITD AML and the favorable Q safety profile, providing evidence of meaningful clinical benefit in pts who have few options. These results are paradigm changing in the R/R FLT3-ITD AML treatment setting.

 

564  Updated Results from a Phase 1 Study of Gilteritinib in Combination with Induction and Consolidation Chemotherapy in Subjects with Newly Diagnosed Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML)

Keith W. Pratz,et al.

The Abstract concludes: Gilteritinib can be safely combined with intensive chemotherapy, and given as single-agent maintenance therapy in subjects with newly diagnosed AML. Treatment was well tolerated. High response rates were observed in FLT3mut+ subjects after treatment with either idarubicin or daunorubicin in combination with two different gilteritinib administration schedules.
