Description: Background: Chimeric antigen receptor T-cell (CAR-T) therapy has revolutionized the treatment of relapsed/refractory B-cell lymphoid malignancies. Axicabtagene ciloleucel (axi-cel), an anti-CD19 CAR-T not only targets the malignant B-cell, but can potentially also target and eliminate normal B-cells. This can interfere with the normal B-cell repertoire, compromising host humoral immunity such as decreased titers of common vaccines (DTaP, MMR). To assess if this was a clinically significant problem, we evaluated all recipients of axi-cel at our center between 6/2018 through 7/2019. Patients and methods: For patients who received commercial axi-cel, humoral immunity was evaluated both quantitatively [absolute lymphocyte count (ALC)] as well as qualitatively by serology titers [IgG antibodies (Abs)] for diphtheria, tetanus, pertussis, measles, mumps, and rubella, and total Immunoglobulin G (IgG) levels. Data was collected within 30 days prior to CAR-T infusion, then at day +30 and between days +60 and +100 after CAR-T infusion. Results: We identified 10 patients (males = 5, 50%), with a median age of 49.9 years (range 30-65) who received commercial axi-cel during the study period. Patient characteristics and indications for CAR-T therapy are shown in Table 1; the cohort represented a heavily pre-treated aggressive B-cell lymphoma patient population. Baseline information on antibody (Ab) titers was available in 8 patients. At baseline, all patients had positive tetanus IgG Abs (≥0.01 IU/mL), 7 had positive diphtheria IgG Abs (≥0.01 IU/mL), 6 had positive measles IgG Abs (≥ 1.1 AI), 5 had positive rubella IgG Abs (≥ 1.0 AI), 3 had positive mumps IgG Abs (≥ 1.1 AI). None of the patients had a positive pertussis IgG Abs (≥100 IU/mL). At follow-up, all patients with positive Ab at baseline maintained titers in the positive range at day +30 and between days +60 and +100 (Figure 1). None of the patients demonstrated a clinically meaningful decrease in Abs titers, despite a drop in ALC and IgG levels (table 2). Conclusions: Albeit a small sample size, IgG Ab titers for diphtheria, tetanus, measles, mumps, and rubella did not appear to be affected by axi-cel at a short interval follow-up after infusion (up to day +100). We plan to extend this analysis in a larger cohort with a longer-term prospective follow-up to validate our findings, especially in light of dropping absolute lymphocyte counts and IgG levels.

Description: The combination of pomalidomide (POM) and dexamethasone (DEX) was evaluated for relapsed/refractory primary central nervous system lymphoma (PCNSL) and primary vitreoretinal lymphoma (PVRL) to determine the maximal tolerated dose (MTD) of POM as the primary objective, and overall response rate (ORR), progression-free survival (PFS), and safety profile as secondary objectives. A cohorts-of-3 study design was used with a dose-escalation schedule consisting of POM (3, 5, 7, or 10 mg) orally daily for 21 days every 28 days and DEX 40 mg orally every week. After 2 cycles, POM was continued alone until disease progression, intolerance, or subject withdrawal. Following MTD determination, the MTD cohort was expanded. Twenty-five of 29 patients with the median of 3 prior treatments were eligible for assessment as per international PCNSL collaborative group criteria. The MTD of POM was 5 mg daily for 21 days every 28 days. Whole-study ORR was 48% (12 of 25; 95% confidence interval [CI], 27.8%, 68.7%) with 6 complete response (CR), 2 complete response, unconfirmed (CRu), and 4 partial response (PR). MTD cohort ORR was 50% (8 of 16; 95% CI, 24.7%, 75.4%) with 5 CR, 1 CRu, and 2 PR. Median PFS was 5.3 months (whole study) and 9 months (for responders). One patient had pseudoprogression. Grade 3/4 hematologic toxicities included neutropenia (21%), anemia (8%), and thrombocytopenia (8%). Grade 3/4 nonhematologic toxicities included lung infection (12%), sepsis (4%), fatigue (8%), syncope (4%), dyspnea (4%), hypoxia (4%), respiratory failure (8%), and rash (4%). POM/DEX treatment is feasible with significant therapeutic activity against relapsed/refractory PCNSL and PVRL. This trial was registered at www.clinicaltrials.gov as #NCT01722305.

Description: Key Points The mTOR pathway is constitutively activated in the TCL cells and is responsible for TCL proliferation. This is first trial to demonstrate that mTORC1 inhibitors (everolimus) have substantial antitumor activity (44% overall response rate) in patients with relapsed TCL.

Description: Introduction Primary CNS lymphoma (PCNSL) is a diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL), predominantly of non-germinal center (non-GC) subtype. Currently available treatments remain disappointed with a non-optimal complete remission rate and a high relapse rate. As such, novel therapeutic agents are urgently needed. Constitutive activation of the NF-kB pathway via mutations in B cell receptor (BCR) (CD79B) and mutation of MYD 88 and TBL1XR1 pathways plays an important role in PCNSL. Ibrutinib, an inhibitor of BCR signaling, has been found to have significant therapeutic activity in relapsed or refractory non-CNS non-GC DLBCL that display similar NFKB mutational patterns. We have performed a CNS pharmacokinetic (PK) study of Ibrutinib and evaluated its therapeutic activity against CNS lymphoma (CNSL) in murine models. Methods CNS PK study in mice - The first study was done in a CNSL model created by intracerebral implantation of luciferase-transfected lymphoma cells (MC116) in nude mice in comparison to healthy nude mice without lymphoma cell implantation (N=5 per group). Once the tumor activity was confirmed by bioluminescence imaging in CNSL group, all the mice were treated with ibrutinib 12 or 30 mg/kg/day by oral gavage (OG) for 5 days. Blood and brain were collected 2 hours after the last dose. Ibrutinib was measured by ultra performance liquid chromatography with tandem mass spectrometry. Cerebro-spinal fluid (CSF) PK study in Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats - Ibrutinib 50 mg/kg single dose was given by OG (N=6). Microdialysates of CSF were collected from a ventricle of the brain and a carotid artery via microdialysis catheters every hour for 13 hours post-treatment. Drug concentrations were determined by capillary electrophoresis with laser detection. Preclinical therapeutic evaluation - A murine CNS lymphoma model was created by intracerebral injection of the OCI-Ly10 non-GC DLBCL cells, which were confirmed to have CD79 A and MYD 88 mutations and show high sensitivity to Ibrutinib in vitro. Animals were sacrificed if they showed severe clinical signs or symptoms or 〉20% weight loss. Ibrutinib 30 mg/kg was administered by OG daily starting at day 7 post-implantation and until the last sacrifice in the control group treated with vehicle. Therapeutic efficacy was determined by Kaplan-Meier survival analysis using date of sacrifice as endpoint. Results CNS PK study in mice - 1) Ibrutinib levels in plasma, normal brain tissue and brain-tumor were analyzed. Ibrutinib was not detected in healthy control mice treated with vehicle. In healthy mice treated with ibrutinib (12 mg/kg and 30 mg/kg), Ibrutinib mean plasmatic levels were 9.31 (±3.56) ng/mL and 42.2 (±20.9) ng/mL respectively. At 12 mg/kg dose level, ibrutinib was detectable but not quantifiable in brain tissue. After treatment with 30 mg/kg,iIbrutinib mean levels were 0.0077 (±0.0053) and 0.0071 (±0.00483) ng/g tissue in right and left cerebral hemispheres respectively. In CNSL mice treated with ibrutinib (12 mg/kg and 30 mg/kg), Ibrutinib mean plasmatic levels were 12.03 (±9.04) ng/mL and 42.64 (±42.04) ng/mL respectively, brain ibrutinib levels were 0.008 (±0.005) and 0.007 (±0.003) ng/g tissue for tumor-bearing right hemisphere and non-tumor bearing left hemisphere respectively for 30 mg/kg, while brain ibrutinib level was detectable but not quantifiable at 12mg/kg. CSF PK study in SD rats - CSF penetration of ibrutinib was determined to be ~5.2 % as calculated by area under the curve (AUC) ratio of CSF and blood samples. Cmax in CSF is ~0.35 uM, which is significantly higher than published EC50 concentrations for DLBCL cell lines. Preclinical therapeutic evaluation -Ibrutinib showed an excellent therapeutic activity with significant prolongation of survival (p=0.0137) (fig 1). At a median follow-up of 112 days, the median survival in treated CNSL group is 56 days compared to 33 days in the control group. At the end of the follow-up 33% of animals in treated CNSL group are still alive without treatment. Conclusion Ibrutinib achieves high concentrations in brain and CSF in murine CNS PK models with promising single-agent preclinical therapeutic activity against CNS lymphoma in a murine model. Further studies to develop combination regimen are ongoing. Figure Figure. Disclosures Soussain: Roche: Research Funding; Celgene: Research Funding; Pharmacyclics: Research Funding.

Description: Introduction: Ibritumomab tiuxetan (Zevalin¨) is a radioimmunoconjugate agent that targets CD20-expressing B cell lymphomas. Currently, it is the only radioimmunoconjugate agent available on the market and is FDA approved for relapsed/refractory follicular lymphoma (FL). A retrospective study of patients with low grade FL (WHO grade 1 and 2) treated with ibritumomab tiuxetan at Mayo Clinic Florida from 2000 to 2016 was performed. Methods: The patient population consisted of previously untreated as well as relapsed low grade FL. We evaluated patient characteristics, response rate, duration of response, progression free survival, overall survival and time to next treatment. Previously untreated patients were treated with ibritumomab tiuxetan due to ineligibility for standard chemotherapy and prolonged immunotherapy, or their preference. Comparison between previously untreated FL patients treated with ibritumomab tiuxetan as the first line of treatment versus patients with relapsed FL treated with ibritumomab tiuxetan as second, third or fourth line therapy was made. Results: Low grade FL patients (n=41) that received ibritumomab tiuxetan were identified; 13 patients (32%) with previously untreated FL and 28 patients (68%) with relapsed FL. The data on response to treatment is presented in Table 1. Ibritumomab tiuxetan use in previously untreated FL was associated with more complete responses than in the relapse setting (92% vs 50% at 6 months, p=0.036). Previously untreated FL patients that received ibritumomab tiuxetan as first line therapy had better progression free survival (80% vs 35% at 3 years). Ibritumomab tiuxetan use in relapsed FL was associated with significant shorter time to relapse compared to previously untreated FL (median 1.3 years vs 4.8 years, p=0.017, figure 1) and shorter time to next treatment (65% at 4 years compared to 0% in previously untreated, p=0.007). 15% of newly diagnosed FL treated with ibritumomab tiuxetan relapsed compared to 64% of relapsed FL patient. There was no significant difference in overall survival between the two groups. The incidence of grades 3-4 neutropenia (Absolute Neutrophil Count

Description: Introduction and Purpose IRAK4 kinase activity is essential for signaling downstream of toll-like receptors (TLR) and the interleukin-1 receptor (IL-1R) family in a variety of myeloid and lymphoid cell types. Dysregulated signaling in these pathways is frequently observed in NHL, particularly in ABC-subtype of Diffuse Large B-Cell Lymphoma (DLBCL) and Waldenström macroglobulinemia (WM). A phase 1 trial in patients with NHL is being conducted to determine safety, pharmacokinetics, and preliminary efficacy of CA-4948 as monotherapy. Patients and Methods At the 18-Jul-2019 data cut-off date, 22 patients have been treated with single-agent CA-4948. Five dose-escalation cohorts from 50 mg QD to 200 mg BID have been tested and cleared; a cohort of patients treated at 400 mg BID dose is currently being evaluated. Patients were diagnosed with relapsed or refractory NHL, including DLBCL (n=13), FL (n=5), HGBL with MYC and BCL2 and/or BCL6 rearrangement (n=1), WM (n=1), LPL (n=1) and MCL (n=1), had a performance status of 0 or 1 (ECOG) at baseline, and were treated in 21-day cycles until progression of disease or unacceptable toxicity, lost to follow-up or death. 5 patients had prior autologous bone marrow transplants. Results CA-4948 has been generally well tolerated. Grade 3/4 treatment-related adverse events included amylase/lipase increased, diarrhea, neutrophil count decreased, rash, rhabdomyolysis. Pharmacokinetics has shown favorable characteristics with dose-proportional increases in exposure. Five patients have been on treatment through the end of Cycle 4, including one patient in Cycle 10 on study for over 7 months. Five patients experienced overall tumor burden decreases of ≥20% from baseline, including at least 2 of 4 patients treated at 200 mg BID. Downstream pharmacodynamic markers of IRAK4 activity are being evaluated. Molecular characteristics including cell-of-origin will be presented. Conclusion CA-4948 demonstrates preliminary clinical activity. Enrollment is on-going and the MTD has not been reached. These encouraging results warrant further clinical testing in patients with advanced hematological malignancies. Clinical trial: NCT03328078.

Description: Targeted agents have greatly improved outcomes for patients (pts) with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) and other B cell lymphomas; however, single agents have been limited by intolerance, resistance and depth/durability of responses. Current novel targeted agent combinations may improve depth of response, but such "full dose" strategies have been associated with significant AEs, dose reductions/interruptions and discontinuations. Our in vitro & in vivo screening/optimization studies identified that concurrent inhibition of BTK & mTOR targets plus IMiD at low doses of each inhibitor can synergistically kill B-cell malignancies and may address drug-resistance. DTRM-555 is an optimized oral triplet combination of a novel BTK inhibitor DTRMWXHS-12 (DTRM-12) with everolimus (EV) & pomalidomide (POM). This once daily therapy was tested in a stepwise, phase I, US multicenter study in patients with highest unmet medical needs including r/r CLL, Richter's transformation (RT) of CLL, DLBCL, transformed B-cell lymphomas. We conducted a 3+3 design phase I, first human trial exploring DTRM-555 in pts ≥18 years, ECOG PS ≤1 with CLL, B-cell NHL, or Hodgkin lymphoma (HL) with no available standard therapy (NCT02900716). Our goal was to determine optimal doses for triplet combination therapy through 3 escalating phases of study: DTRM-12 in escalating doses (50, 100, 200, & 300 mg/day) in Part Ia, DTRM-12 at 200 mg or 300 mg & EV at 5 mg (doublet or DTRM-505) in Part Ib Arm A while DTRM-12 at 200 mg or 300 mg, EV at 5 mg & POM at 2 mg in Part Ib Arm B. For all arms, treatment was administered for 21 consecutive days of a 28-day cycle, until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Safety was the primary endpoint, and the dose-limiting toxicity (DLT) period was cycle 1. Secondary endpoints included response (iwCLL 2018 or Cheson 2014), progression free survival, duration of response and pharmacokinetics. Intra-patient migration between arms (Mono to doublet to triplet) was permitted if subsequent doses were tolerated. The trial commenced 9/27/2016 and completed enrollment 7/25/2019. Thirty-three pts were enrolled, including 2 screen failures and 4 intra-cohort migrations, with r/r DLBCL (n=8), CLL/SLL (n=5), RT (n=6), FL (n=5), MCL (n=4), MZL/LPL (n=3), HL (n=2). 30 of 31 treated pts were evaluated: 8 pts participated in phase Ia (DTRM-12) while 23 pts were treated on phase Ib combinations (DTRM-505 & DTRM-555). Baseline characteristics: 70% male (n=23), median age 70 years (range 46-94) and 94% white. Median prior therapies were 3 (range 1-10), 53% had been treated with ≥1 prior targeted agent (i.e., CD19/CD3 bispecific antibody, obtinutuzumab, pembrolizumab, nivolumab, ibrutinib, venetoclax, PI3k-i), CAR-T or HSCT. 35% pts were previously treated with ibrutinib. Table 1 describes Grade (Gr) 3 and 4 AEs (all causality, stratified by treatment arm). Regarding safety, AEs were manageable, with a total of 5 DLTs were observed: 2 (Gr 3 febrile neutropenia, URI) in part Ib arm A, 3 (Gr 4 thrombocytopenia, Gr 3 diarrhea, G3 febrile neutropenia) in Part Ib arm B. No MTD was reached for the mono & doublet arms, with the MTD of the triplet determined to be DTRM-12 200 mg, EV 5 mg, & POM 2 mg. Spider plot (Figure 1a) shows the clinical response for individual CLL and lymphoma pts treated with mono, doublet and triplet therapies. Depth and durability of response improved with combination therapies (vs. mono). Of note, 48% of all patients had a ≥50% reduction in sum of the products of lymph node diameters. Representative PET-CT scans are in Figure 1b-c. Responses in multi-refractory pts are ongoing (including 15+ mos in a pt with r/r DLBCL and 5+ mos PR in a pt aged 〉 90 yrs with r/r DLBCL; 4+ & 13+ mos PRs in two pts with RT). DTRM-12 plasma concentrations were unaffected by EV & POM (Once Daily Oral Therapies) in Figure 1d. The clinical trial met its primary endpoint as the triple combination DTRM-555 had an acceptable safety profile. Dose dependent drug levels with minimal inter-pt variations were observed in all arms, supporting once daily oral administration of this low-dose combination therapy. Encouraging clinical activity was observed in several high-risk, multi-refractory CLL and lymphoma pts, including those previously treated with ibrutinib. Thus synthetic lethality is a viable treatment approach. A phase II US expansion study is underway targeting pts with transformed lymphomas (follicular or prior CLL) and r/r DLBCL cohorts. Table 1.

Description: Background MZL is a low-grade non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL) which involves lymph nodes, extranodal sites, or spleen. It is sensitive to radiation therapy, which is used in localized disease with curative intent. Yttrium-90 ibritumomab tiuxetan [(90)Y-IT; Zevalin] is a radio-immunoconjugate (RIC) that targets CD20. It is approved for relapsed/refractory low grade and follicular NHL. The data on its use in MZL is limited. We present long-term outcome of the largest reported cohort of MZL patients who received (90)Y-IT. Methods Medical records of patients who received treatment with (90)Y-IT at Mayo Clinic Cancer Center between January 2004 and December 2018 were analyzed. We selected patients with MZL and reviewed clinical data including age, gender, MZL type, clinical stage (Ann Arbor Staging System), treatment response, (90)Y-IT related adverse effects (AEs), as well as lymphoma and treatment related events. All patients received (90)Y-IT according to the standard treatment guidelines. Overall response rate (ORR) and complete response rate (CR) were calculated. Progression-free survival (PFS), time to next therapy (TTNT), and overall survival (OS) were analyzed using the Kaplan-Meier method. Results Twenty-one patients were identified (Table 1). The median age at diagnosis was 60 years (range, 11-81) and 71% (15/21) were female. 52% (11/21) were previously-untreated (UMZL) while 48% (10/21) were relapsed (RMZL). The median number of pretreatments in RMZL patients was 2 (range, 1-3). ECOG performance status at the time of treatment was 0 in 90% (19/21) and 1 in 10% (2/21). 62% (13/21) were stage III/IV disease at the time of (90)Y-IT therapy. The median follow-up was 8.5 years (95% CI; 4.5, 12.4); 17 (81%) patients remain alive. The ORR was 91% (19/21) with the two non-responders being in the RMZL group. The CR rate was 81% (17/21) and 65% (11/17) remain in CR at a median follow-up of 5.7 years (95% CI; 1.4, 11). Nine (43%) patients had a relapse during the study period. More relapses occurred in the RMZL group (7/10; 70%) compared to (2/11; 18%) in the UMZL group. Median PFS (whole cohort) was 10 years (95% CI; 2.1, NR) and TTNT (whole cohort) was not reached (NR) (95% CI; 2.1 years, NR). Median PFS was significantly higher in UMZL group compared to RMZL group NR (95% CI; 2.5 years, NR) vs 2.1 years (95% CI; 0.17, 9.9), respectively (Figure 1-A).Median OS (whole cohort) was 19.3 years (95% CI; 8.9, 19.3) without statistical difference in between UMZL group and RMZL group NR (95% CI; NR, NR) vs 16.6 years (95% CI; 9, 19.4), respectively (Figure 1-B). None of the 11 UMZL patients died at median follow up of 4.7 years (95% CI; 1.6, 9.2). All 4 deaths were in the RMZL group with 3 dying of transformation to high-grade lymphoma at 8, 22, and 25 months post-(90)Y-IT treatment. One patient died of myelodysplastic syndrome 7.3 years post-(90)Y-IT treatment while in CR. Toxicities were primarily hematologic. Grade ³3 neutropenia was observed in 6/21 (29%) patients with median time to nadir of 48.5 days (range, 19-70) and median time to recovery to normal absolute neutrophil count of 39.5 days (range, 7-476). Grade ³3 thrombocytopenia was observed in 3 (14%) patients with median time to nadir of 35 days (range, 19-357) and median time to recovery of 21 days (range, 2-538). Grade ³3 anemia was observed in only one patient. Only two patients required transfusions and growth factor support. Non-hematologic AEs included mild to severe fatigue in 4 patients. Conclusion RIC with (90)Y-IT is efficacious and well-tolerated in patients with previously untreated as well as relapsed MZL. As expected it appears to be more efficacious in previously untreated patients. Long-term complete remission (〉5 years) was observed in 52% of the study population (43% of UMZL and 9% of RMZL). Combination of efficacy, tolerability, and treatment schedule most convenient for patients makes (90)Y-IT a reasonable alternative to systemic therapy with immunotherapy, chemotherapy, or chemo-immunotherapy in management of MZL.

Description: Background: The DIAL study is testing the efficacy of dual immunomodulation in patients with advanced aggressive B cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma (B-NHL). Sponsored by the Cancer Therapy Evaluation Program (CTEP), the trial combines the use of a programmed cell death protein 1 (PD-1) inhibitor (nivolumab) with an agonist of the CD27 receptor (varlilumab) in a randomized phase 2 design. CD27, a co-stimulatory receptor, regulates T cell activation in the context of T cell receptor (TCR) engagement through interaction with CD70. T cell exhaustion plays a major role in immune evasion in B-NHL. Varlilumab is an agonistic IgG1 monoclonal antibody that recognizes CD27 leading to prevention or reversal of exhaustion in pre-clinical models. Varlilumab also demonstrates direct anti-tumoral activity in xenograft models of human lymphoma cell lines via antibody-dependent cell-mediated cytotoxicity. Phase 1 data supports the safety and tolerability of single-agent varlilumab in advanced hematologic malignancies (NCT01460134). We hypothesize that CD27 activation synergizes with PD-1 inhibition resulting in a superior anti-lymphoma effect compared to PD-1 blockade alone. The study will also evaluate the effect of these agents on tumor and immune cells using immunohistochemistry (IHC), mass cytometry (CyTOF), multiplex ELISA, imaging mass cytometry (IMC), and whole exome sequencing. Methods: The trial is enrolling patients with advanced aggressive B-NHL. Standard inclusion criteria and prior treatment with at least 2 lines of standard therapy are required. Prior autologous stem cell transplant and/or chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cell therapy is allowed. Patients with active CNS disease are excluded. Eligible patients are randomized to treatment with single-agent nivolumab (group 1) or dual immunotherapy with nivolumab and varlilumab. Group 1 is allowed to cross-over at the time of progression. Nivolumab will be administered intravenously (IV) every 2 weeks (240 mg) for 4 months followed by monthly dosing thereafter (480 mg). Varlilumab will be given IV every 4 weeks (3 mg/kg). Response assessment will be done by PET-CT scan every 12 weeks. Primary outcome is overall response rate (ORR) according to the LYRIC criteria. The trial will enroll 48 patients per arm, allowing 80% power to detect at least 20% increase in ORR in the experimental arm (group 2) assuming a 25% ORR in the control arm (group 1). The trial is registered (NCT03038672) and open to participation to members of the Experimental Therapeutics Clinical Trials Network (ETCTN) and Early Drug Development Opportunity Program (EDDOP).

Description: BACKGROUND: Axi-cel is an autologous anti-CD19 chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T-cell therapy that is approved for treatment of relapsed/refractory (R/R) large B-cell lymphoma and is associated with high response rates and durable remissions. Recent data show that axi-cel is effective across various adverse prognostic features, namely cell of origin, disease bulkiness, and extranodal disease, among others. Hypoalbuminemia is a known adverse prognostic factor in lymphomas. It is unknown if axi-cel overcomes the adverse prognostic feature of hypoalbuminemia in R/R large B-cell or transformed follicular lymphoma. METHODS: We conducted a retrospective analysis of patients treated with axi-cel across three Mayo Clinic campuses (Rochester, Jacksonville, and Phoenix) from 06/01/2018 until 04/01/2019. The primary objective of this analysis was to assess the impact of hypoalbuminemia (defined at day 0, prior to infusion) on outcome after axi-cel therapy. RESULTS: A total of 50 (male=37, 74%) patients (pts), median age of 53 (26-67) years received axi-cel. The median number of prior lines of therapy was 3 (2-8) (Table 1). Two pts had no available serum albumin levels at time of axi-cel infusion. Seven (15%) of 48 pts had serum albumin levels lower than 3.5 g/dL (median= 3.3 g/dL (range 2.6-3.4)) and the median follow up of survivors was 7.6 (1.9-14.3) months. The best overall response rate (ORR) and complete remission (CR) rates in these pts were 57% and 57%, respectively. One (14%) patient had stable disease and 2 (29%) had disease progression. The median overall survival (OS) for pts with hypoalbuminemia was not reached. On the other hand, 41 (85%) pts had a normal serum albumin level (median=4.0 (range 3.5-5.1) g/dL) and the median follow up for survivors was 6.3 months. The best objective response rate (ORR) and complete remission (CR) rates in these pts were 82% and 44%, respectively. The median OS for pts with normal serum albumin was 14 (95%CI=6.3-29.6) months. There was no significant difference at 6-months and 1-year OS between pts with hypoalbuminemia vs. those with normal baseline serum albumin levels [6-month=100% vs. 79%(95%CI=64-93%); 1-year (100% vs. 54% (95%CI=26-82%), p=0.17] (Figure 1). All grades cytokine release syndrome (CRS) was diagnosed in all 7 pts with hypoalbuminemia (100%) and in 38 of 41 (92%) pts without hypoalbuminemia. There was no difference in the median duration of CRS between pts with or without hypoalbuminemia [6 (range 1-11) days vs 5 (range 1-19) days, p=0.89]. Neurotoxicity (all grades) was observed in 5 (71%) pts with hypoalbuminemia compared 26 (63%) with normal albumin levels. There was no statistically significant difference in median duration of neurotoxicity between pts with hypoalbuminemia and those with normal baseline albumin levels [9 (range 1-10) days vs. 3 (range 0-25) days, p= 0.72]. CONCLUSIONS: Hypoalbuminemia does not have a significant impact on the outcomes of axi-cel therapy, including the incidence of CRS or neurotoxicity. These results need to be validated in a large collaborative multicenter study. Further investigation is needed to assess the prognostic impact of severe hypoalbuminemia (
