Inotuzumab Ozogamicin and Low-Intensity Chemotherapy in Older Patients With Newly Diagnosed CD22 Philadelphia Chromosome-Negative B-Cell Precursor Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia.

Purpose: The use of inotuzumab ozogamicin (InO), a conjugated anti-CD22 monoclonal antibody, is becoming a promising frontline treatment for older patients with ALL.

Patients And Methods: EWALL-INO is an open-label prospective multicenter phase II trial (ClinicalTrials.gov identifier: NCT03249870).

Long-Term Follow-Up of the Prospective Randomized AATT Study (Autologous or Allogeneic Transplantation in Patients With Peripheral T-Cell Lymphoma).

JCO Primary analysis of the phase III randomized AATT study showed that younger patients with peripheral T-cell lymphoma (PTCL) consolidated with autologous or allogeneic transplantation (alloSCT) had similar event-free survival (EFS) and overall survival (OS). Seven-year EFS of patients randomly assigned to alloSCT was 38% (95% CI, 25 to 52) compared with 34% (95% CI, 22 to 47) for patients randomly assigned to autologous transplantation of hematopoietic stem cells (autoSCT); OS was 55% (95% CI, 41 to 69) and 61% (95% CI, 47 to 74). Among patients undergoing alloSCT (n = 26) or autoSCT (n = 41) on study, the cumulative progression/relapse rate was 8% (95% CI, 0 to 19) and 55% (95% CI, 35 to 74).

[Place of hematopoietic stem cell transplantation for very high risk acute myeloblastic leukemia and myelodysplastic syndromes (SFGM-TC)].

Allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (alloHSCT) is a potentially curative treatment for acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS). However, these transplants are complicated by a high rate of relapse in very high cytogenetic risk or refractory diseases. The benefit of this therapeutic strategy for these serious malignant hemopathies could therefore be reassessed.
