Relapsed/refractory TP53-mutated acute myeloid leukemia is associated with poor prognosis and, due to high relapse rates, allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) is rarely offered.1 131I-apamistamab (Iomab-B) is an anti-CD45 radioimmunoconjugate that delivers targeted radiation to hematopoietic cells, therefore enabling allo-HSCT in patients with relapsed/refractory disease.1 The phase III randomized SIERRA trial (NCT02665065) investigating Iomab-B and allo-HSCT vs conventional care (CC) met its primary endpoint of durable complete remission (CR) lasting at least 6 months.1
During the 50th European Society for Blood and Marrow Transplantation Annual Meeting, Hannah Choe presented results from a post hoc analysis of the SIERRA trial comparing efficacy outcomes and safety of enrolled patients with a TP53 mutation vs wild type. We summarize the results below.
The overall study design has been previously reported on here.
Of the 153 patients enrolled in the trial, 37 patients had a TP53 mutation.
20 patients were treated with CC and 17 with Iomab-B.
10 patients from the CC arm crossed over to Iomab-B.
The rates of CR and durable CR were similar in patients treated with Iomab-B, regardless of TP53 mutation status (Figure 1).
Figure 1. Rates of A CR and B durable CR in patients treated with Iomab-B or CC who were TP53 mutation positive or TP53 wild type*
CC, conventional care; CR, complete remission; Iomab-B, 131I-apamistamab.
*Adapted from Choe.1
†27 patients treated with Iomab-B, and 10 patients treated with conventional care.
‡93 patients treated with Iomab-B, and 23 patients treated with conventional care.
§Iomab-B group also included patients who crossed over from the CC group.
A TP53 mutation was not associated with an increased risk of complications post allo-HSCT.
The safety profile of patients with a TP53 mutation was comparable to that of the overall Iomab-B treatment population.
Sepsis was experienced by 17.4% of patients with a TP53 mutation treated with Iomab-B vs 9.6% of patients who were TP53 wild type and treated with Iomab-B.
The cumulative incidence of acute graft-versus-host disease was comparable between patients treated with Iomab-B who were TP53 mutation positive or TP53 wild type (8.7% vs 8.6%, respectively).
