Results from a phase Ib trial combining vadastuximab talirine to 7 + 3 induction therapy suggests deeper and more rapid remissions, without added nonhematologic toxicity, for patients with newly diagnosed AML.
Phase II trial suggests durable, MRD-negative CR in 82% of patients after infusion of CTL019 CAR T-cells.
In this subanalysis of the phase III TOWER study, blinatumomab demonstrated superior health-related QoL vs standard-of-care chemotherapy in patients with R/R Ph- B-Precursor ALL.
The combination of inotuzumab ozogamicin with lower-intensity mini-HCVD chemotherapy in older patients with ALL resulted in a high ORR and low early mortality.
In this phase I trial, vadastuximab talirine plus HMA was active in higher-risk patient subsets, including patients with advanced secondary AML and those older than 75 years of age.
ABL001 showed early indications of clinical activity in chronic-phase CML patients both with and without TKI resistance mutations.
In this phase II open-label study, the combination of ponatinib with hyper-CVAD resulted in high complete cytogenetic and molecular response rates in patients with Ph+ ALL.
Factors associated with MRFS after TKI cessation included longer durations of imatinib therapy, MR4, and pretreatment IFN.
In this phase III trial, idarubicin plus high-dose cytarabine with or without vorinostat did not show superiority to 7 + 3 regimen in untreated AML patients 60 years of age or younger.
