Abstract: Background: PAC is an oral kinase inhibitor with specificity for JAK2, FLT3, IRAK1, and CSF1R that has demonstrated significant and sustained spleen volume reduction (SVR) and symptom control vs BAT (excluding JAK2 inhibitors) in MF pts regardless of platelet count (PERSIST-1). The PERSIST-2 study was a randomized, controlled, open-label, phase 3 trial of PAC 200 mg BID and PAC 400 mg QD vs BAT (including JAK1/JAK2 inhibitor ruxolitinib [RUX]) in pts with 10 or 20 MF whose platelet counts were ≤100,000/µL, a recognized adverse prognostic variable. Prior JAK2 inhibitor use was allowed. Methods: Pts were randomized 1:1:1 to PAC BID, PAC QD, or BAT. The co-primary efficacy endpoints were the percentages of pts achieving ≥35% SVR (MRI or CT) and ≥50% reduction in total symptom score (TSS; MPN-SAF TSS 2.0), both from baseline to Week 24. The primary objective was to compare the efficacy of pooled PAC (BID+QD) to BAT and the secondary objectives were to compare PAC BID and PAC QD individually to BAT. PK samples were collected and analyzed for PAC. Safety analyses were based on all pts exposed to study treatment of any duration (safety population); efficacy analyses were based on ITT pts with a randomization date allowing Week 24 endpoint evaluations prior to the full clinical hold* (ITT efficacy population). Results: 311 pts were randomized (107 PAC BID, 104 PAC QD, 100 BAT), 308 received study drug, and 221 were included in the ITT efficacy population (74 PAC BID, 75 PAC QD, 72 BAT). Demographics and baseline disease characteristics were generally balanced among the treatment arms (Table) and analysis populations. A total of 32 (44%) BAT pts in the ITT efficacy population received RUX as treatment at some point on study. Population PK analyses showed that the steady-state plasma levels achieved with BID were higher than with QD, however the Cmax levels were lower. A significantly higher percentage of pts in the pooled PAC arm achieved SVR ≥35% (18% [27/149]) vs the BAT arm (3% [2/72] ; p=0.001; Figure 1A). 25% of PAC pts (37/149) had ≥50% reduction in TSS vs 14% of BAT pts (p=0.079; Figure 1B). In secondary analyses vs BAT, PAC BID demonstrated significant improvement over BAT for both efficacy endpoints with 22% achieving SVR ≥35% (BAT=3%; p=0.001) and 32% achieving ≥50% reduction in TSS (BAT=14%; p=0.011). The PAC QD arm had a significant SVR ≥35% (15% v 3%, respectively; p=0.017), but a similar proportion with ≥50% reduction in TSS (17% v 14%, respectively; p=0.652). More PAC pts reduced their red blood cell transfusion dependence at Week 24 (defined as a ≥50% reduction in average transfusions/month for 3 months relative to baseline) with 19% (7/37) in the PAC QD arm, 22% (8/36) in PAC BID, and 9% (3/35) in BAT. There was no significant difference observed in OS across the treatment arms (Figure 2). Hazard ratios for OS (95% confidence intervals) were 0.68 (0.30, 1.53) for PAC BID v BAT, 1.18 (0.57, 2.44) for PAC QD v BAT, and 0.61 (0.27, 1.35) for PAC BID v QD. PAC BID maintained this survival advantage vs BAT across nearly all demographic and MF-associated risk factors. During the course of the study, 10 (9%), 15 (14%), and 15 (14%) died on PAC BID, PAC QD, and BAT, respectively. The most common treatment-emergent adverse events (AEs) associated with PAC were gastrointestinal (diarrhea, nausea, vomiting) and hematologic (anemia and thrombocytopenia), and were generally less frequent for BID vs QD administration. Grade 3/4 cardiac AEs occurred in 7%, 13% and 9% of PAC BID, PAC QD, and BAT pts, respectively, and grade 3/4 bleeding AEs occurred in 14%, 7%, and 7%, respectively. Grade 3/4 bleeding AEs were associated with grade 3/4 thrombocytopenia, which was also more common in the PAC BID group. Nine pts had cardiac failure (2% PAC QD, 4% PAC BID, 3% BAT) and 1 (1%, PAC QD) had intracranial hemorrhage.* Conclusions: The PERSIST-2 study is the only randomized, controlled trial to date in pts with MF and thrombocytopenia (platelets ≤100,000/µL), allowed prior JAK2 inhibitor treatment exposure (including RUX), and allowed RUX as BAT comparator. Irrespective of prior JAK2 inhibitor treatment, both PAC arms were more effective at SVR than BAT; however, PAC BID appeared more active than QD dosing and achieved significance versus BAT for both SVR and TSS. The most frequent AEs with PAC were gastrointestinal and hematologic toxicities. *PAC on full clinical hold by the FDA on 2/8/2016 based on concerns around excess deaths and cardiac and hemorrhagic events in PERSIST-1.

Abstract: Introduction: There are few effective treatment options available for patients (pts) with myelofibrosis (MF). Pts with thrombocytopenia, a risk factor for shorter overall survival, have poorer prognosis (Gangat, J Clin Oncol 2010). Pacritinib is a kinase inhibitor with specificity for JAK2, FLT3, IRAK1, and CFSR1 and has demonstrated minimal myelosuppression in clinical trials (Hart, Leukemia 2011; Komrokji, Blood 2015; Mesa, ASCO 2015). In the phase III open-label PERSIST-1 trial, a significantly greater proportion of pts treated with pacritinib achieved spleen volume reductions (SVR) ≥35% vs BAT (ITT: 19.1% vs 4.7%, p=0.0003; pts evaluable at baseline and Week 24: 25.0% vs 5.9%, p=0.0001; Mesa, ASCO 2015). This analysis examines pt responses across subgroups. Methods: Pts naive to treatment with JAK inhibitors were randomized 2:1 to receive oral pacritinib 400 mg once daily or BAT. Stratification factors included DIPSS risk status and baseline platelet count. Pts were eligible who had DIPSS Intermediate (Int)-1, Int-2, or High risk disease; absolute neutrophil count 〉 500/µL; palpable splenomegaly ≥5 cm; and baseline Total Symptom Score (TSS) ≥13 using the Modified MPN Symptom Assessment Form Total Symptom Score (MPN-SAF TSS and TSS 2.0). There was no restriction on baseline platelets or hemoglobin (Hgb) levels. The primary endpoint was the proportion of pts achieving SVR ≥35% at Week 24 by centrally-reviewed MRI or CT and the secondary endpoint was the proportion of pts achieving ≥50% reduction in TSS from baseline at Week 24 using 6 symptoms from the MPN-SAF TSS. Pt responses were analyzed by baseline risk factors for MF including platelet counts ( 〈 50,000/µL vs ≥ 50,000/µL and 〈 100,000/µL vs ≥100,000/µL), sex, age (≥65 y vs 〈 65 y), JAK2V617F mutation status (positive vs negative), baseline MF diagnosis (primary MF [PMF] vs secondary MF), reticulin and collagen fibrosis staging ( 〉 1 vs ≤1), TSS (≥20 vs 〈 20), white blood cell count ( 〉 25×109/L vs ≤25×109/L), peripheral blasts (≥5% vs 〈 5%), Hgb ( 〈 10 g/dL vs ≥10 g/dL), transfusion dependency by Gale criteria (Y vs N), time from diagnosis ( 〈 12 mos vs ≥12 mos), ECOG PS (2-3 vs 0-1), and bone pain ( 〉 3 vs ≤3). In multivariate logistic regressions, the odds of SVR ≥35% and TSS reduction ≥50% at Week 24 were modeled as a function of prognostic factors for MF and adjusted for treatment (pacritinib vs BAT). Results for the 6 symptoms common to both TSS versions are reported. Results: 327 pts were enrolled and randomized (pacritinib: 220, BAT: 107). Overall, 62% of pts had PMF; 32% had baseline platelets 〈 100,000/µL and 16% had 〈 50,000/µL; 75% were positive for JAK2V617F. After a median follow-up of 8.4 months, treatment with pacritinib resulted in consistent rates of SVR across subgroups (Figure 1). When comparing vs BAT, the greatest differences in SVR ≥35% rates between treatment arms were observed in pts with baseline platelets 〈 50,000/μL (+22.9% vs BAT), JAK2V617F-negative pts (+23.0% vs BAT) and those aged 〈 65 y (+21.2% vs BAT). Improvements in TSS (TSS and TSS 2.0 reduction ≥50%) were also consistent for pts receiving pacritinib (Figure 2). By multivariate analysis, SVR ≥35% was significantly correlated only with ECOG PS ≥2 (odds ratio [OR]=2.97, p=0.030) and TSS reduction ≥50% was significantly correlated only with bone pain 〉 3 (OR=0.35, p=0.004). Conclusions: Treatment with pacritinib resulted in consistent rates of SVR ≥35% and TSS reduction ≥50% irrespective of baseline characteristics. Comparisons vs BAT were favorable for all patient subpopulations examined for both endpoints. These results support the use of pacritinib across all intermediate- or high risk MF pt subgroups analyzed. Figure 1.

Abstract: Background : MF is a hematologic malignancy characterized by splenomegaly and debilitating systemic symptoms. The Myeloproliferative Neoplasm Symptom Assessment Form (MPN-SAF) questionnaire was developed for patient self-report of MF symptoms (Emanuel 2012). Although there have been several versions of this questionnaire, they have demonstrated consistent reliability, cross-sectional validity, and high level of comparability for both TSS and individual symptoms (Dueck 2017). The JAK2/FLT3 inhibitor PAC has demonstrated durable spleen volume reduction and symptom control in patients with MF irrespective of baseline platelet count in 2 phase 3 trials vs BAT (Mesa 2017, Mascarenhas 2018). Since changes in study design and external factors limited the ability to assess TSS in PERSIST-1 and PERSIST-2, respectively, a pooled analysis of all available TSS data from both phase 3 trials was undertaken to further evaluate TSS response. Methods : PERSIST-1 was a phase 3 study of PAC 400 mg QD vs BAT (excluding ruxolitinib) in patients with MF (excluding those with prior ruxolitinib treatment); PERSIST-2 was a phase 3 study of PAC 400 mg QD or 200 mg BID vs BAT (including ruxolitinib) in patients with MF and baseline thrombocytopenia (platelet count ≤100x109/L); 48% of patients in PERSIST-2 had prior ruxolitinib and 44% of patients randomized to BAT received ruxolitinib treatment during the study. In PERSIST-1, 2 versions of the questionnaire were administered; MPN-SAF TSS in the first 179 patients and MPN-SAF TSS 2.0 in the subsequent 148 patients. In PERSIST-2, all 311 patients used the MPN-SAF TSS 2.0 questionnaire. In both trials, the efficacy endpoint associated with TSS was defined as the proportion of patients achieving ≥50% reduction in TSS from baseline to Week 24 based on MPN-SAF TSS 2.0. In the post-hoc analyses of PAC vs BAT herein, data were presented based on the pooled MPN-SAF TSS 2.0 responses, as well as the pooled MPN-SAF TSS and MPN-SAF TSS 2.0 (6 symptoms in common) responses from PERSIST-1 and PERSIST-2. A multivariate stepwise analysis was also performed using potential prognostic factors for MF as predictors of TSS response. These analyses were performed in the intent-to-treat efficacy populations in both studies: all patients randomized in PERSIST-1 and all patients with randomization date allowing for Week 24 data in PERSIST-2. Results : Data from 548 patients (n = 369 PAC, n = 179 BAT) were analyzed, with 179 patients administered the MPN-SAF TSS and 369 administered the MPN-SAF TSS 2.0. Baseline patient and disease characteristics were balanced for PAC and BAT groups, with a higher rate of primary MF in the PAC group (66% vs 57%). Median TSS scores at baseline were 19.5 (range, 0.3-57.3) and 19.6 (range, 1.6-55.9) in PAC and BAT groups, respectively. Results of the pooled analysis demonstrate significantly higher rates of ≥50% reduction in TSS from baseline to Week 24 with PAC vs BAT for MPN-SAF TSS 2.0 (P=0.0241) and the pooled versions of the questionnaire (MPN-SAF TSS or TSS 2.0; P 〈 0.0001; Table). In multivariate logistic regression analyses of treatment group and baseline potential prognostic variables, only treatment group (PAC vs BAT) and MF type (secondary vs primary) were significant predictors of TSS response for MPN-SAF TSS 2.0 and for the pooled versions of the questionnaire (Table 1). Study (PERSIST-1 vs PERSIST-2) did not significantly impact TSS response (P=0.2243), supporting the validity of data pooling. Reduction in symptoms with PAC were rapid, occurring as early as Week 4 (Figure). Patients in the PAC group achieved a steady state response rate of ≈35% around Week 20, while steady state response rate in the BAT group was ≈15% around Week 12. Additionally, larger absolute reductions and percent reductions in TSS at Week 24 were correlated with improvement as measured by Patient Global Impression of Change and change in EQ-5D-5L (Table 2). Conclusions : The integrated results from the phase 3 PERSIST-1 and PERSIST-2 trials demonstrate significant improvement in the rate of TSS response with PAC vs BAT. Overall, phase 3 data demonstrate that PAC was significantly more effective than BAT for the reduction spleen volume and symptom burden in patients with MF irrespective of baseline platelet count or prior treatment with JAK2 inhibitors.

Abstract: Introduction: Myelofibrosis (MF) is a life-threatening hematologic malignancy characterized by splenomegaly and debilitating symptoms including fatigue, abdominal pain, night sweats, bone pain, pruritus, and unintentional weight loss. The myeloproliferative neoplasm symptom assessment form (MPN-SAF) is a PRO tool designed to measure MF-related symptom burden and was developed and validated at Mayo Clinic. It was modified (MPN-SAF total symptom score [TSS] and TSS 2.0) for use in the PERSIST-1 and PERSIST-2 phase 3 trials. For PERSIST-1, when examining the 6 common symptoms in both TSS versions (tiredness, night sweats, early satiety, itchiness, bone pain, and abdominal pain), pacritinib-treated patients (pts) had significant improvements in TSS overall and in individual symptoms vs BAT; Pt Global Impression of Change (PGIC) was also significantly improved for pts receiving pacritinib. Improvements in EORTC-QLQ-C30 scales were noted in the pacritinib arm (Mesa, EHA 2015). The proportion of pts achieving spleen volume reduction (SVR) ≥35% at Week 24 was significantly greater with pacritinib vs BAT (ITT: 19.1% vs 4.7%, p=0.0003; evaluable at baseline and Week 24: 25.0% vs 5.9%; p=0.0001). This analysis examines relationships between TSS improvement and changes in splenomegaly and HRQoL outcomes. Methods: Pts who received no prior JAK inhibitor therapy were randomized 2:1 to oral pacritinib 400 mg once daily or BAT. Pts were stratified by DIPSS risk (Int-1/Int-2 vs High) and platelet count ( 〈 50,000/μL vs 50,000/μL to 〈 100,000/μL vs ≥100,000/μL). Pts must have had a baseline total TSS ≥13 using MPN-SAF TSS 2.0. Each symptom is rated on a scale from 0 (absent) to 10 (worst imaginable) using MPN-SAF TSS and TSS 2.0. Results for the 6 symptoms common to both TSS versions are reported. Additional PROs used for assessment of HRQoL included EORTC QLQ-C30 and EQ-5D-5L. In multivariate logistic regressions, odds of TSS reduction ≥50% at Week 24 were modeled as a function of Week 24 SVR ≥35%, spleen length reduction (SLR) ≥ 50%, PGIC, improvement in each EORTC scale, and improvement in EQ-5D-5L Overall Health State (OHS) and in each dimension individually while adjusting for treatment (pacritinib vs BAT). Correlations were examined in all pts and by baseline platelet counts ( 〈 50,000/μL, 〈 100,000/μL, and ≥100,000/μL). Results: A total of 327 pts were enrolled (PAC: 220, BAT: 107). 62% of pts had primary MF, 32% had baseline platelets 〈 100,000/μL, and 16% had baseline platelets 〈 50,000/μL. TSS reduction ≥50% was found to be associated with SVR ≥35% and improvement in splenomegaly (SLR ≥50%). In the total pt population, there was a significant association between TSS reduction and SVR (odds ratio [OR]=2.60, p=0.016). In all pts, there was a significant association between TSS reduction and improvements in OHS as measured by EQ-5D-5L (OR=2.30, p=0.013). TSS reductions were also marginally associated with improvements in the QLQ-C30 Global Health Scale (GHS)/QoL Scale (OR=1.92, p=0.050) and, though not statistically significant, there was a trend of improvement in perceived overall health as measured by PGIC (OR=2.16, p=0.118). TSS reductions were further examined in pts grouped by baseline platelet count. Improvement in EQ-5D-5L OHS was marginally associated with TSS reductions in pts with platelets 〈 50,000/μL (OR=6.03, p=0.057). For pts with platelets 〈 100,000/μL, reductions in TSS were significantly associated with reductions in splenomegaly (SLR ≥50%; OR=9.53, p=0.004), and improvements in the QLQ-C30 GHS/QoL domain (OR=4.03, p=0.022) as well as the EQ-5D-5L OHS (OR=5.49, p=0.008). A significant association between TSS reductions and SVR ≥35% was observed in pts with platelets ≥100,000/μL (OR=3.99, p=0.005). In all pts, improvements in Fatigue as measured by QLQ-C30 were significantly associated with TSS reductions (OR=2.20, p=0.019) as well as in pts with baseline platelets 〈 50,000/μL (OR=17.88, p=0.008) and 〈 100,000/μL (OR=10.18, p 〈 0.001). Conclusions: In the total pt population, TSS reduction was associated with improvements in spleen response and perceived overall health. This trend was also observed in pts with low baseline platelet counts. Additionally, TSS reduction was significantly associated with improvements in fatigue, a major contributor to poor HRQoL in pts with MF. This reinforces the clinical relevance of measuring TSS using a validated instrument as an endpoint in MF trials.
