Mises en garde cliniques
- Surveiller la numération avant chaque cycle et pendant le nadir. Ne pas administrer hors protocole oncologique spécialisé ; la myélosuppression peut provoquer une infection ou une hémorragie mortelle. — CIMA/AEMPS, ficha técnica 75242
- Calculer l’exposition cumulée antérieure aux anthracyclines et évaluer la fonction ventriculaire avant et pendant le traitement. Cardiomyopathie et insuffisance cardiaque peuvent survenir pendant le traitement ou des années plus tard. — CIMA/AEMPS, ficha técnica 75242
- Administrer uniquement par une voie intraveineuse perméable. Arrêter immédiatement en cas de suspicion d’extravasation : c’est un vésicant pouvant provoquer une nécrose sévère. — CIMA/AEMPS, ficha técnica 75242
- Surveiller syndrome de lyse tumorale et risque de LAM/SMD secondaires. Surveiller INR avec anticoagulants ; éviter vaccins vivants. La ciclosporine augmente l’exposition. — CIMA/AEMPS, ficha técnica 75242

Patients with acute myeloid leukaemia (AML) positive for internal tandem duplication (ITD) mutations of FLT3 have poor outcomes. Quizartinib, an oral, highly potent, selective, type 2 FLT3 inhibitor, plus chemotherapy showed antitumour activity with an acceptable safety profile in patients with FLT3-ITD-positive newly diagnosed AML. The aim of the study was to compare the effect of quizartinib versus placebo on overall survival in patients with FLT3-ITD-positive newly diagnosed AML aged 18-75 years. We conducted a randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled, phase 3 trial comparing quizartinib and placebo in combination with chemotherapy in induction and consolidation, followed by quizartinib or placebo single-agent continuation, in patients with FLT3-ITD-positive newly diagnosed AML at 193 hospitals and clinics in 26 countries in Europe; North America; and Asia, Australia, and South America. Patients aged 18-75 years were eligible. Patients were randomly assigned (1:1) to the quizartinib group or the placebo group by an independent biostatistician through an interactive web and voice response system, stratified by region, age, and white blood cell count at diagnosis. Patients, investigators, funders, and contract research organisations were masked to treatments assigned. Induction therapy comprised a standard 7 + 3 induction regimen of cytarabine 100 mg/m2 per day (or 200 mg/m2 per day allowed if institutional or local standard) by continuous intravenous infusion from day 1 to day 7 and anthracycline (daunorubicin 60 mg/m2 per day or idarubicin 12 mg/m2 per day) by intravenous infusion on days 1, 2, and 3, then quizartinib 40 mg orally or placebo once per day, starting on day 8, for 14 days. Patients with complete remission or complete remission with incomplete neutrophil or platelet recovery received standard consolidation with high-dose cytarabine plus quizartinib (40 mg per day orally) or placebo, allogeneic haematopoietic cell transplantation (allo-HCT), or bo
The phase III APOLLO trial prospectively compared the efficacy of arsenic trioxide (ATO) in combination with all-trans retinoic acid (ATRA) regimen (ATRA and ATO [ATRA-ATO]) plus low-dose idarubicin versus standard ATRA plus anthracycline-based chemotherapy (ATRA-CHT) regimen (ie, ATRA and idarubicin regimen) in patients with high-risk acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL; EudraCT 2015-01151-68; ClinicalTrials.gov identifier: NCT02688140). Adult patients with newly diagnosed high-risk APL in the ATRA-ATO arm received ATO 0.15 mg/kg once daily and ATRA 45 mg/m2 twice daily until complete remission (CR), with two doses of idarubicin 12 mg/m2 on days 1 and 3, followed by consolidation therapy (four ATRA-ATO cycles). Patients in the ATRA-CHT arm received induction with ATRA 45 mg/m2 twice daily and idarubicin 12 mg/m2 once daily on days 1, 3, 5, and 7, followed by three cycles of chemotherapy-based consolidation and 2 years of maintenance therapy. The primary study end point was event-free survival (EFS) at 2 years. As of July 2022, 133 eligible patients had received either ATRA-ATO (n = 68) or ATRA-CHT (n = 65). The study was discontinued prematurely because of slow accrual during the COVID-19 pandemic. After a median follow-up of 37 months (range, 1.7-88.6 months), 2-year EFS was 88% in the ATRA-ATO arm and 71% in the ATRA-CHT arm (HR, 0.4 [95% CI, 0.17 to 0.92]; log-rank test P = .02). At a median of 7.8 and 12.1 months from achievement of CR, molecular relapse occurred in one (1.5%) ATRA-ATO patient versus eight (12.3%) ATRA-CHT patients (P = .014). Overall, 32% and 68% of patients receiving ATRA-ATO and ATRA-CHT, respectively, reported serious treatment-emergent adverse events (P < .01). The results of the APOLLO trial support the use of ATO and ATRA for the treatment of newly diagnosed patients with high-risk APL.
Sixty percent of newly diagnosed patients with acute myeloid leukemia (ND-AML) receiving frontline therapy attain a complete response (CR), yet 30%-40% of patients relapse. Relapsed or refractory AML (R/R-AML) remains a particularly adverse population necessitating improved therapeutic options. This phase Ib/II study evaluated the safety and efficacy of fludarabine, cytarabine, granulocyte colony-stimulating factor, and idarubicin combined with the B-cell lymphoma-2 inhibitor venetoclax in ND-AML and R/R-AML. The phase IB portion (PIB) enrolled patients with R/R-AML using a 3 + 3 dose escalation and de-escalation algorithm for identification of maximum tolerated dose and dose-limiting toxicities. The phase II portion enrolled patients into two arms to evaluate response and time-to-event end points: phase IIA (PIIA): ND-AML and phase IIB (PIIB): R/R-AML. Sixty-eight patients have enrolled to date (PIB, 16; PIIA, 29; PIIB, 23). Median age was 46 years (range, 20-73). Grade 3 and 4 adverse events occurring in ≥ 10% of patients included febrile neutropenia (50%), bacteremia (35%), pneumonia (28%), and sepsis (12%). The overall response rate for PIB, PIIA, and PIIB was 75%, 97%, and 70% with 75%, 90%, and 61%, respectively, achieving a composite CR. Measurable residual disease-negative composite CR was attained in 96% of ND-AML and 69% of R/R-AML patients. After a median follow-up of 12 months, median overall survival (OS) for both PII cohorts was not reached. Fifty-six percent of patients proceeded to allogeneic hematopoietic stem-cell transplantation (ND-AML, 69%; R/R-AML, 46%). In R/R-AML, allogeneic hematopoietic stem-cell transplantation resulted in a significant improvement in OS (median OS, NR; 1-year OS, 87%). One-year survival post-HSCT was 94% in ND-AML and 78% in R/R-AML. Fludarabine, cytarabine, granulocyte colony-stimulating factor, and idarubicin + venetoclax represents an effective intensive treatment regimen in ND-AML and R/R-AML patients, associated with
Venetoclax (VEN) combined with hypomethylating agents is approved for frontline therapy in older/unfit patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML). However, prospective data on this low-intensity therapy in treatment-naive younger patients with AML are lacking. This study investigated the efficacy and safety of VEN plus decitabine (VEN-DEC) as induction in untreated young fit patients with AML in a randomized trial. Patients aged 18 to 59 years eligible for intensive chemotherapy were randomized 1:1 to receive VEN-DEC or IA-12 (idarubicin and cytarabine). All patients achieved composite complete remission (CRc) underwent high-dose cytarabine consolidation. The primary end point was CRc rate after induction. Of 255 screened, 188 were enrolled and randomly assigned, with 94 in each group. In the intention-to-treat population, CRc was 89% (84/94) in the VEN-DEC group vs 79% (74/94) in the IA-12 group (noninferiority P = .0021), with measurable residual disease negativity rates of 80% (67/84) vs 76% (56/74), respectively. VEN-DEC showed superior CRc in patients aged ≥40 years (91% vs 75%) and those with adverse risk (91% vs 42%) or epigenetic mutations (91% vs 67%), but lower CRc in RUNX1::RUNX1T1 fusion cases (44% vs 88%) than IA-12. Patients in the VEN-DEC group experienced fewer grade ≥3 infections (32% vs 67%) and shorter severe thrombocytopenia duration (median, 13 vs 19 days; P < .001). At a median follow-up of 12.1 months, overall and progression-free survival were similar between groups. In conclusion, VEN-DEC demonstrated noninferior response rates with superior safety over IA-12 in young patients with AML. The trial was registered at www.clinicaltrials.gov as #NCT05177731.
