Program: Oral and Poster Abstracts
Session: 623. Lymphoma: Chemotherapy, excluding Pre-Clinical Models: Poster III
METHODS: Eligible patients had a recurrent or refractory PCNSL or SCNSL, age≥18, KPS≥50, normal end-organ function, and unrestricted number and type of prior therapies. In patients with SCNSL disease, systemic disease needed to be absent or not requiring any active treatment.
RESULTS: Three patients have been enrolled at dose level 1 (560 mg daily) and one patient at dose level 2 (840mg daily) of whom three were women with a median age of 70 years (range 21-80). Three had recurrent PCNSL and 1 recurrent SCNSL. Two patients presented with parenchymal and two with leptomeningeal relapse. Treatment was generally well tolerated. There was one drug-related grade 4 toxicity (neutropenia) that resolved after the drug was held for 4 days. No drug related grade 3 toxicities have been observed to date. Most common grade 2 toxicities were decreased neutrophil count and hyperglycemia. All patients continue on study at a median follow up of 87 days. Three out of four patient were evaluated for response so far. There were two responses: one complete (in the CSF) and one partial, both in recurrent/refractory PCNSL as well as one stable disease in the patient with recurrent SCNSL. The patient with partial response had failed multiple prior treatment regimens including methotrexate-based chemotherapy, radiation, and rituximab/temozolomide. Serum and CSF pharmacokinetic analysis is initiated. Dose level 2 (840mg) is accruing.
CONCLUSION: Patients with CNS lymphoma tolerate Ibrutinib at 560 and 840mg well. Dose escalation will continue. Targeted agents might be an alternative therapeutic approach to be investigated for refractory/recurrent CNS lymphoma patients.
