Ivosidenib Monotherapy in Patients with Relapsed/Refractory AML and Other Advanced Hematologic Malignancies
ASH 2017 – AML
Ivosidenib monotherapy is well-tolerated and produced durable remissions in high-risk patients with relapsed/refractory acute myeloid leukemia (AML).

Safety and Tolerability of Midostaurin from Expanded Treatment Protocol in Patients with FLT3 Mutation–Positive, Newly Diagnosed AML
ASH 2017 – AML
The results of the Radius-X expanded treatment protocol showed a safety profile that was consistent with that previously described in patients with
FLT3
mutation–positive, newly diagnosed acute myeloid leukemia (AML).

Median 3.5-Year Follow-Up of Ibrutinib Treatment in Patients with Relapsed/Refractory Mantle-Cell Lymphoma: A Pooled Analysis
ASH 2017 – CLL
In a pooled analysis of 370 patients with relapsed/refractory mantle-cell lymphoma, treatment with ibrutinib for a median follow-up of 3.5 years resulted in 26% being progression-free and 45% still alive, with manageable toxicity.

Hedgehog Pathway Inhibitor Sonidegib plus Azacitidine in Myeloid Malignancies
ASH 2017 – AML
In this analysis, the hedgehog pathway inhibitor sonidegib plus azacitidine combination therapy showed encouraging antileukemia activity in terms of high rate of disease stabilization, particularly in the relapsed/refractory acute myeloid leukemia patient population.

Comparison of Costs and Healthcare Resource Utilization in Patients with CLL Treated with Frontline Ibrutinib or Chemoimmunotherapy
ASH 2017 – CLL
When used in first-cycle therapy for chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL), rates of resource utilization and total costs of care were significantly lower for ibrutinib than for chemotherapy or chemoimmunotherapy, with ibrutinib-treated patients having lower emergency department and inpatient costs per month and less frequent office and outpatient visits than patients treated with chemotherapy or chemoimmunotherapy.

Ivosidenib or Enasidenib plus Standard Induction Chemotherapy Is Active in Patients with mIDH, Newly Diagnosed AML
ASH 2017 – AML
The initial results of a phase 1 study suggest that combination therapy with ivosidenib or enasidenib plus standard induction chemotherapy is well-tolerated and effective in newly diagnosed patients with IDH-mutated (m
IDH
), relapsed/refractory acute myeloid leukemia (AML).

Preliminary Results of Prophylactic Tocilizumab After Axicabtagene Ciloleucel (axi-cel; KTE-C19) Treatment for Patients with Relapsed/Refractory, Aggressive NHL
ASH 2017 – CLL
In patients with relapsed/refractory, aggressive non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL), use of prophylactic tocilizumab may reduce the incidence of severe cytokine release syndrome but not neurologic events in patients treated with chimeric antigen receptor T-cell therapy.

Enasidenib Monotherapy Is Well-Tolerated and Active in Older Patients with Untreated mIDH2 AML
ASH 2017 – AML
In this subanalysis of the AG221-C-001 phase 1 study, enasidenib monotherapy was found to be well-tolerated, and yielded hematologic responses in previously untreated older patients with
IDH2
-mutated (m
IDH2
) acute myeloid leukemia (AML) who are not fit to receive standard cytotoxic chemotherapy.

Single-Agent Ibrutinib versus Chemoimmunotherapy Regimens for Treatment-Naïve Patients with CLL: A Cross-Trial Comparison
ASH 2017 – CLL
Single-agent ibrutinib is associated with longer progression-free survival and a generally more favorable safety profile than chemoimmunotherapy in patients with treatment-naïve chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL).

Ivosidenib Monotherapy Results in Deep mIDH1 Clearance in Patients with mIDH1 AML
ASH 2017 – AML
This analysis showed that ivosidenib-treated patients with
IDH1
-mutated (m
IDH1
), relapsed/refractory, and untreated acute myeloid leukemia (AML) whose best response is a complete remission (CR) or CR with partial hematologic recovery achieve m
IDH1
clearance ≤0.04%.
