    Abstract: Purpose: To investigate whether radiotherapy can be reduced without loss of efficacy from extended field (EF) to involved field (IF) after four cycles of chemotherapy. Patients and Methods: Between 1993 and 1998, patients with newly diagnosed early-stage unfavorable HD were enrolled onto this multicenter study. Patients were randomly assigned to receive cyclophosphamide, vincristine, procarbazine, and prednisone (COPP) + doxorubicin, bleomycin, vinblastine, and dacarbazine (ABVD) for two cycles followed by radiotherapy of 30 Gy EF + 10 Gy to bulky disease (arm A) or 30 Gy IF + 10 Gy to bulky disease (arm B). Results: Of 1,204 patients randomly assigned to treatment, 1,064 patients were informative and eligible for the arm comparison (532 patients in arm A; 532 patients in arm B). The median observation time was 54 months. Five years after random assignment, the overall survival (OS ran ) for all eligible patients was 91% and freedom from treatment failure (FFTF ran ) was 83%. Survival rates at 5 years after start of radiotherapy revealed no differences for arms A and B, respectively, in terms of FFTF (85.8% and 84.2%) and OS at 5 years (90.8% and 92.4%). There also were no differences between arms A and B, respectively, in terms of complete remission (98.5% and 97.2%), progressive disease (0.8% and 1.9%), relapse (6.4% and 7.7%), death (8.1% and 6.4%), and secondary neoplasia (4.5% and 2.8%). In contrast, acute side effects including leukopenia, thrombocytopenia, nausea, gastrointestinal toxicity, and pharyngeal toxicity were more frequent in the EF arm. Conclusion: Radiotherapy volume size reduction from EF to IF after COPP + ABVD chemotherapy for two cycles produces similar results and less toxicity in patients with early-stage unfavorable HD.

    Abstract: Purpose: Endostatin is the first endogenous angiogenesis inhibitor to enter clinical trials. Laboratory investigations with endostatin have indicated broad antitumor activity coupled with remarkably low toxicity. A phase I trial of recombinant human endostatin was designed to evaluate toxicity and explore biologic effectiveness in patients with refractory solid tumors. Patients and Methods: Endostatin was administered as a 1-hour intravenous infusion given daily for a 28-day cycle. A starting dose of 30 mg/m 2 was explored with subsequent dose escalations of 60, 100, 150, 225, and 300 mg/m 2 . Assessment of serum pharmacokinetics was performed on all 21 patients. Western blot assay and mass spectroscopy were employed to evaluate endostatin metabolism. Circulating levels of endogenous proangiogenic growth factors were examined. Tumor and tumor blood supply were imaged by dynamic computed tomography (CT), magnetic resonance imaging, ultrasound, and positron emission tomography. Results: Endostatin given on this schedule was essentially free of significant drug-related toxicity. Two transient episodes of grade 1 rash were observed. No clinical responses were observed. Endostatin pharmacokinetics were linear with dose, and serum concentrations were achieved that are associated with antitumor activity in preclinical models. No aggregate effect on circulating proangiogenic growth factors were seen, although several patients exhibited persistent declines in vascular endothelial growth factor levels while enrolled in the study. A few patients demonstrated changes in their dynamic CT scans suggestive of a decline in microvessel density, although overall, no consistent effect of endostatin on tumor vasculature was seen. Conclusion: Endostatin given daily as a 1-hour intravenous infusion was well tolerated without dose-limiting toxicity at doses up to 300 mg/m 2 .

    Abstract: 7013 Background: The phase 3 ADMIRAL trial demonstrated the superiority of gilteritinib to salvage chemotherapy (SC) in patients (pts) with FLT3-mutated ( FLT3 mut+ ) R/R AML. Aim/Objective: A follow-up of ADMIRAL assessed long-term survivors, transplant (HSCT) outcomes. and gilteritinib safety beyond 1 year. Methods: A data cut was performed on September 20, 2020—2 years after the primary analysis. Patients who were alive without relapse, pts who underwent HSCT, and adverse events of interest (AEIs) in Years 1 (≤12 months) and 2 ( 〉 12 months) of gilteritinib therapy were evaluated. Results: As of September 20, 2020, 17% (n = 63/371) of pts in the intention-to-treat (ITT) population were alive (gilteritinib, n = 49; SC, n = 14); 16 pts assigned to gilteritinib remained on treatment. After a median follow-up of 37.1 months, 26 of the 49 pts in the gilteritinib arm who were alive were also without relapse; 18 of these 26 pts underwent HSCT, with 16 receiving post-HSCT gilteritinib maintenance therapy. Nineteen of the 26 pts in the gilteritinib arm without relapse continued gilteritinib beyond 1 year and remained in CR. Of the 371 ITT pts, 83 (22%) underwent HSCT during the study (gilteritinib, n = 64; SC, n = 19). Pre-HSCT CRc rates were similar across arms (gilteritinib: n = 40/64; 63%; SC: n = 11/19; 58%); 10 of 11 pts preselected for low-intensity SC achieved pre-HSCT CRc (gilteritinib, n = 9; SC, n = 1). Forty of 64 (63%) transplanted pts in the gilteritinib arm received post-HSCT gilteritinib maintenance after achieving pre-HSCT CRc; the 24-month relapse rate in pts who resumed gilteritinib after pre-HSCT CRc was 19%. Post-HSCT treatment with chemotherapy or other tyrosine kinase inhibitors was administered in 26 pts who received gilteritinib before transplantation. Cumulative 24-month relapse rates in gilteritinib-treated pts who achieved pre-HSCT CR and CRc were 20% and 45%, respectively. Median post-HSCT overall survival (landmarked to HSCT date), was similar across arms (gilteritinib, 16.1 months; SC, 15.3 months; HR = 1.076; 95% CI: 0.536, 2.160). Overall, 10.2% (n = 25/246) had ≥24 months of gilteritinib exposure. Most common AEIs during Years 1 and 2 of gilteritinib therapy were elevated ALT/AST levels. Incidences of all AEIs declined in Year 2. Cardiac AEIs in Year 2 were nonfatal cardiorespiratory arrest (n = 1) and ventricular tachycardia (n = 1). One case of differentiation syndrome and cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma occurred in Years 1 and 2, respectively. Conclusions: A high proportion of gilteritinib-treated R/R FLT3 mut+ AML pts who were alive without relapse had received HSCT followed by gilteritinib maintenance. Among all transplanted pts in ADMIRAL, pre-HSCT remission rates and post-HSCT survival were similar across arms. Post-HSCT gilteritinib maintenance may relate to the low post-HSCT relapse rate in the gilteritinib arm. The safety profile of gilteritinib is stable at 2 years with no new or significant safety signals. Clinical trial information: NCT02421939.
