Ibrutinib: Analysis of Pivotal Data Richard R. Furman, MD CLL Research Center
BCR-associated Kinases:Proven Effective Therapeutic Targets • Syk (spleen tyrosine kinase): • fostamatinib • PRT062070 • GS-9973 • Btk (Bruton’s tyrosine kinase): • ibrutinib • CC-292 • ACP-196 • ONO-4059 • PI3K (phosphatidyl 3-kinase): • Idelalisib (GS-1101) • Duvelisib (IPI-145) • AMG319 Nat Rev Immunol 2:945
Issues with Novel Agents Response Criteria • Redefine clinical endpoints • Evolution of response over time Dosing: • No more MTD dosing • Threshold dosing • Fixed dosing / wide therapeutic window Re-evaluation of Prognostic Markers Re-evaluation of MRD
Redefining Clinical End Points“Cheson 2012” Standard response criteria: measure of treatment efficacy Need to provide means for determining need for treatment discontinuation For novel agents, response criteria don’t measure effect: • Thalidomide / lenalidomide: tumor flare • BCR Antagonists: lymphocytosis (Not tumor flare) Cheson BD. JCO 2012;30:2820.
Cheson 2012: Recommendations For IMIDs: Assessment of PD should use repeat observations and incorporate indicators of PD not associated with tumor flares. For BCR-targeted agents: lymphocytosis alone should not be considered an indicator of PD. Need to demonstrate other CLL-related signs or symptoms of PD. Lymphocytosis is distinct from tumor flare
Evolution of Responses Over Time:Kinase Inhibitors • Achievement of best response was time dependent • Proportion with CR/PR increased during follow-up • Proportion with PR+L diminished as the lymphocyte count declined over time
Issues with Novel Agents Response Criteria • Redefine clinical endpoints • Evolution of response over time Dosing: • No more MTD dosing • Threshold dosing • Fixed dosing / wide therapeutic window Re-evaluation of Prognostic Markers Re-evaluation of MRD

RESONATE: Study Objectives Primary Objective • PFS as assessed by the IRC per 2008 IWCLL criteria with the 2012 clarification for treatment-related lymphocytosis • Secondary Objectives • Overall survival • IRC-assessed overall response rate • Safety and tolerability • Exploratory Objective • Investigator assessed progression free survival and overall response rate

Conclusion Ibrutinib initially approved based upon phase II data for relapsed CLL patients who have received at least one prior therapy Based upon the RESONATE data, ibrutinib’s approval updated to include deletion 17p at any line of therapy Phase III data provided new insights into adverse events: atrial fibrillation Responses will evolve over time: STAY TUNED!
