An Older Patient With Intermediate-Risk AML

Bertrand is a fit 65-year-old man with pancytopenia due to normal karyotype

AML without FLT3 mutation

• NGS panel detects the following pathogenic mutations after therapy initiated:

EZH2, STAG2,TET2, DNMT3A

After initial consultation, standard 7+3 recommended

• Patient is in CR1 after standard 7+3 and one cycle intermediate-dose ARA-C

Discussion: Bertrand is uncertain/unwilling to consider HCT. Would NGS

have affected initial therapy? Is maintenance therapy an option?

• Among treatment-naïve,

AZA + VEN led to statistically

significant and clinically meaningful

improvement in response rates and

(16%/22%)

– Laboratory tumor lysis

syndrome was rare at 1%

Venetoclax regimens in AML

• Efficacy in different mutational subsets?

• Addition of other targeted agents to venetoclax backbone?

• Other considerations

– Inpatient versus outpatient?

– Antifungal prophylaxis: yes or no, and what to choose?

What If Carol Presented With an IDH1 Mutation?

• Carol is a 70-year-old woman experiencing fatigue, presyncopal symptoms, night sweats

• PMH: hyperlipidemia and hypertension; PS = 2

• CBC: WBC 2,000/mcL, Hb 7.6 g/dL, platelets 22,000/mcL

• BM aspirate: 60% myeloid blasts with multilineage dysplasia; karyotype: 46, XX [20]

• Additional testing: PCR for IDH1 R132+, PCR for FLT3-ITD, and TKD negative

For discussion: what are the options for Carol?

HMA with venetoclax?

Ivosidenib alone or with azacitidine?

HMA, venetoclax + ivosidenib?

CPX-351 versus 7+3?

Page 36: Transforming Modern Care in AML€¦ · Transforming Modern Care in AML Clinical Solutions With Novel Agents for Diverse Patient Populations

• Expected safety profile; longer treatment cycles required with

the “triplet” combination including azacitidine (cohort 3)

• Composite complete remission seen in 80% of enrolled

patients, including 63% of patients with R/R AML

Note: 7 of 8 patients in cohort 3 had received prior therapy, including 2 with relapsed MDS and 3 with secondary AML from MDS.

• Carol is a 70-year-old woman with MDS with ASXL1 mutation only

• Treated with azacitidine for the past 3 years with hematologic response

• PMH: coronary artery disease, grade 3A chronic renal failure, diabetes

• She develops progressive neutropenia and thrombocytopenia

• BM aspirate: 60% myeloid blasts with multilineage dysplasia; karyotype: 46, XX [20]

What would you do next?

Review Committee Amended Protocol

for IDH-DS Diagnosis and Management1

a Typical onset is between 7-10 days and 5 months from start of enasidenib treatment or reinitiation of enasidenib after prolonged treatment interruption. b Owing to the

long half-life of enasidenib, treatment may not immediately reverse symptoms of IDH-DS.

1. Fathi AT et al. JAMA Oncol. 2018 ;4:1106-1110.

Suspicion of IDH-DS

New onset or worsening

of characteristic

symptoms of

unexplained etiology,

including fever, rapid

weight gain or edema,

respiratory symptoms

with or without

infiltrates, pleural or

pericardial effusions,

hypotension, and acute

renal failurea

Initiate treatment with DEX,

10 mg twice daily, as

indicated

• Empiric therapy for other

possible causes (eg,

anti-infective agents)

• Hydroxyurea for

management of

co-occurring leukocytosis

• Hyperuricemia agents

for co-occurring tumor

lysis syndrome

Hospitalization indicated in setting of

rapidly progressing symptoms (especially

respiratory symptoms), development of

hypoxia, renal failure, rising WBC count, or

DIC

• Stop/interrupt enasidenib treatmentb

Improvement

of IDH-DS

signs/symptoms

Continue DEX until

significant improvement

or resolution of signs/

symptoms, then taper

per institutional

guidelines
