Résumé

Despite recent advances, outcomes in patients with relapsed/refractory diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) remain poor. Immune checkpoint inhibitors have shown limited efficacy in this setting, but combinations with novel agents may enhance benefit. Combination therapy with durvalumab, an anti-programmed death ligand 1 (PD-L1) antibody, and danvatirsen (AZD9150; an antisense oligonucleotide inhibiting signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 [STAT3]) or tremelimumab (an anti-cytotoxic T-lymphocyte-associated antigen 4 [CTLA-4] antibody) may augment endogenous antitumor activity. In this phase 1b dose escalation and dose expansion study, we evaluated durvalumab 20 mg/kg every 4 weeks plus either tremelimumab 1 mg/kg every 4 weeks or danvatirsen 2 or 3 mg/kg (administered on days 1, 3, 5, 8, 15, and 22, then every week). Treatment continued until disease progression. The primary endpoint was safety; secondary endpoints included efficacy, pharmacokinetics, and immunogenicity. As of April 4, 2019, 32 patients were enrolled and treated, receiving a median of 2 prior lines of systemic therapy. Treatment-related adverse events occurred in 21 patients (65.6%), most commonly alanine aminotransferase/aspartate aminotransferase increased (grade 1-3), anemia (grade 1-3), and fatigue (grade 1). The overall objective response rate was 6.3%, with 2 partial responses. Median time to response was 11.0 weeks (range, 7.7-14.3 weeks). Median progression-free survival was 7.4 weeks (range, 0.1-31.4 weeks), and median overall survival was 28.0 weeks (range, 1.9-115.4 weeks). The primary endpoint was met, with durvalumab plus tremelimumab/danvatirsen generally well tolerated in patients with relapsed/refractory DLBCL; however, antitumor activity was limited.

BACKGROUND
Despite recent advances, outcomes in patients with relapsed/refractory diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) remain poor. Immune checkpoint inhibitors have shown limited efficacy in this setting, but combinations with novel agents may enhance benefit. Combination therapy with durvalumab, an anti-programmed death ligand 1 (PD-L1) antibody, and danvatirsen (AZD9150; an antisense oligonucleotide inhibiting signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 [STAT3]) or tremelimumab (an anti-cytotoxic T-lymphocyte-associated antigen 4 [CTLA-4] antibody) may augment endogenous antitumor activity.
PATIENTS AND METHODS
In this phase 1b dose escalation and dose expansion study, we evaluated durvalumab 20 mg/kg every 4 weeks plus either tremelimumab 1 mg/kg every 4 weeks or danvatirsen 2 or 3 mg/kg (administered on days 1, 3, 5, 8, 15, and 22, then every week). Treatment continued until disease progression. The primary endpoint was safety; secondary endpoints included efficacy, pharmacokinetics, and immunogenicity.
RESULTS
As of April 4, 2019, 32 patients were enrolled and treated, receiving a median of 2 prior lines of systemic therapy. Treatment-related adverse events occurred in 21 patients (65.6%), most commonly alanine aminotransferase/aspartate aminotransferase increased (grade 1-3), anemia (grade 1-3), and fatigue (grade 1). The overall objective response rate was 6.3%, with 2 partial responses. Median time to response was 11.0 weeks (range, 7.7-14.3 weeks). Median progression-free survival was 7.4 weeks (range, 0.1-31.4 weeks), and median overall survival was 28.0 weeks (range, 1.9-115.4 weeks).
CONCLUSION
The primary endpoint was met, with durvalumab plus tremelimumab/danvatirsen generally well tolerated in patients with relapsed/refractory DLBCL; however, antitumor activity was limited.
