A Real-world Study of the Effectiveness of Tisagenlecleucel in Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia Patients
- Conditions
- Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia
- Registration Number
- NCT07039383
- Lead Sponsor
- Novartis Pharmaceuticals
- Brief Summary
This was a retrospective, cross-sectional, center-based chart review study that collected real-world data for relapsed/refractory (R/R) acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) patients receiving tisagenlecleucel (tisa-cel). Five centers in the United States were included for the study.
The date of the initial tisa-cel infusion was defined as the index date. A baseline period from ALL diagnosis to the index date was used to capture patient characteristics including demographics, and disease and treatment history. The study period, defined as the period from tisa-cel infusion to the end of follow-up date, i.e. the last contact date on medical charts or death, whichever was earlier, was used to capture the clinical outcomes of tisa-cel among ALL patients.

- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Remission Rate Month 1 and Month 3 Remission rate was defined as the best overall response as either complete remission (CR) or complete remission with incomplete blood count recovery (CRi) to tisa-cel.
CR: \<5% blasts in bone marrow based on morphologic assessment, no evidence of extramedullary disease, full recovery of peripheral blood counts (platelets \> 100x10\^9/L, absolute neutrophil \> 1.0x10\^9/L, and circulating blasts \<1%), and blood transfusions independency (i.e., no transfusion or transfusion ≤7 days).
CRi: \<5% blasts in bone marrow, no evidence of extramedullary disease, but without full recovery of peripheral blood counts with or without blood transfusions independency.

* Age group
* Gender
* Race

* Karnofsky or Lansky performance score (PS)
* Lymphoblast proportion in bone marrow (\<5%, \>= 5%)

The Karnofsky and Lansky PS are measures of functional impairment. They run from 0 to 100, where 0 is death and 100 is normal health. The Karnofsky scale is for patients aged 16 years or older. The Lansky scale is for patients younger than 16 years old.Number of Patients by Treatment Characteristics Category Baseline Treatment characteristic categories included:
* Treatments of interest before tisa-cel infusion
* Number of prior lines of treatment category (1 to 7)

* Year of initial tisa-cel infusion
* Bridging treatment agent received before tisa-cel infusion
* Lymphodepleting regimen received before tisa-cel infusion
* Type of tisa-cel infusion dose received (single, multiple)
* Weight at tisa-cel infusion (\<= 50 kilograms \[kg\], \>50 kg)Lymphoblast Proportion in Bone Marrow Before Tisa-cel Infusion Baseline ALL Disease Duration at Tisa-cel Infusion Baseline Time From Initial Diagnosis to First Relapse From initial diagnosis up to first tisa-cel infusion, approximately 13 years Number of Patients by Time From Initial Diagnosis to First Relapse Baseline Time intervals: \<18 months, 18-36 months, and \>36 months.
Time From Most Recent Relapse to Initial Tisa-cel Infusion From initial diagnosis up to first tisa-cel infusion, approximately 13 years Number of Lines of Treatment Prior to Tisa-cel Infusion Baseline Time From Tisa-cel Infusion to Loss of Follow-up or Death due to Any Cause Baseline up to approximately 3 years Time From Leukapheresis to Tisa-cel Infusion From initial diagnosis up to first tisa-cel infusion, approximately 13 years Time from Tisa-cel Infusion to B-cell Aplasia Baseline up to approximately 3 years Number of Doses for Initial Tisa-cel Infusion Baseline Number of doses for initial infusion was measured among those who received multiple doses.
Weight Adjusted Transduced Cell Dose Infused in Patients Who Weighed 50 kg or Less at Tisa-cel Infusion Baseline Total Cell Dose Infused in Patients Who Weighed More Than 50 kg at Tisa-cel Infusion Baseline Number of Patients by Conditions Experienced After Tisa-cel Infusion Baseline up to approximately 3 years Number of Patients by Bone Marrow Minimal Residual Disease (MRD) Status Month 1 and Month 3 Bone marrow MRD is a measure of the number of cancer cells remaining in the body after treatment. The number of patients overall with bone marrow MRD negative and those who achieved CR or CRi response with bone marrow MRD negative after tisa-cel infusion was measured. Bone marrow MRD negative was based on clinical assessment by the investigator.
CR: \<5% blasts in bone marrow based on morphologic assessment, no evidence of extramedullary disease, full recovery of peripheral blood counts (platelets \> 100x10\^9/L, absolute neutrophil \> 1.0x10\^9/L, and circulating blasts \<1%), and blood transfusions independency (i.e., no transfusion or transfusion ≤7 days).
