Abstract
ABSTRACT A041202 (NCT01886872) is a phase 3 study comparing bendamustine plus rituximab (BR) with ibrutinib and the combination of ibrutinib plus rituximab (IR) in previously untreated older patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL). The initial results showed that ibrutinib-containing regimens had superior progression-free survival (PFS) and rituximab did not add additional benefits. Here we present an updated analysis. With a median follow-up of 55 months, the median PFS was 44 months (95% confidence interval [CI], 38-54) for BR and not yet reached in either ibrutinib-containing arm. The 48-month PFS estimates were 47%, 76%, and 76% for BR, ibrutinib, and IR, respectively. The benefit of ibrutinib regimens over chemoimmunotherapy was consistent across subgroups of patients defined by TP53 abnormalities, del(11q), complex karyotype, and immunoglobulin heavy chain variable region (IGHV). No significant interaction effects were observed between the treatment arm and del(11q), the complex karyotype, or IGHV. However, a greater difference in PFS was observed among the patients with TP53 abnormalities. There was no difference in the overall survival. Notable adverse events with ibrutinib included atrial fibrillation (afib) and hypertension. Afib was observed in 11 patients (pts) on BR (3%) and 67 pts on ibrutinib (18%). All-grade hypertension was observed in 95 pts on BR (27%) and 263 pts on ibrutinib (55%). These data show that ibrutinib regimens prolong PFS compared with BR for older patients with treatment-naïve CLL. These benefits were observed across subgroups, including high-risk groups. Strikingly, within the ibrutinib arms, there was no inferior PFS for patients with abnormalities in TP53, the highest risk feature observed in CLL. These data continue to demonstrate the efficacy of ibrutinib in treatment-naïve CLL.

Abstract
Venetoclax is a first-in-class B-cell lymphoma-2 (BCL-2) inhibitor approved as continuous monotherapy and in combination with rituximab as fixed-treatment duration for relapsed and refractory chronic lymphocytic leukemia (R/R CLL). DEVOTE was a 24-week, multicenter observational study (NCT03310190) evaluating the safety, healthcare resource utilization (HCRU) and health-related quality of life (HRQoL) of patients initiating venetoclax for R/R CLL in Canada. Overall, 89 patients received 1 dose of venetoclax; 80% had prior exposure (42% resistant) to ibrutinib. Biochemical tumor lysis syndrome (TLS) occurred in five patients. We observed differences in hospitalization across Canadian provinces including in patients at low risk for TLS with no clear impact on TLS incidence. Additionally, a rapid and sustained improvement in several domains of HRQoL was observed during venetoclax initiation. Early adoption of venetoclax was mainly for R/R CLL patients with few treatment options; nonetheless, acceptable toxicity and a positive impact on HRQoL were observed.

Abstract
BACKGROUND In the GLOW study, fixed-duration ibrutinib-venetoclax showed superior progression-free survival versus chlorambucil-obinutuzumab in patients with previously untreated chronic lymphocytic leukaemia who were older or had comorbidities, or both, at a median follow up of 27·7 months. In this Article, we report updated outcomes from GLOW after a 46-month median follow-up. METHODS GLOW was a randomised, multicentre, phase 3 study done at 67 hospital centres across 14 countries. Patients aged 65 years and older or 18-64 years with previously untreated chronic lymphocytic leukaemia and a cumulative illness rating scale score of more than 6 or creatinine clearance less than 70 mL/min, or both, and an Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance status of 2 or less were randomly assigned (1:1) via an interactive web system with permuted blocks (block size of four) and stratified by IGHV mutational status and the presence of del11q aberration to the ibrutinib-venetoclax group (three cycles of ibrutinib lead-in [420 mg/day, orally], followed by 12 cycles of ibrutinib plus venetoclax [400 mg/day, orally, including a 5-week dose ramp-up]) or the chlorambucil-obinutuzumab group (six cycles of chlorambucil [0·5 mg/kg, orally, on days 1 and 15 of each cycle], and obinutuzumab [1000 mg, intravenously, on days 1 (or 100 mg on day 1 and 900 mg on day 2), 8, and 15 of cycle 1 and day 1 of cycles 2-6]). The primary endpoint was progression-free survival in the intention-to-treat population, assessed by an independent review committee. The safety population included all randomised patients who received at least one dose of the study treatment. This study is registered with ClinicalTrials.gov (NCT03462719) and the EU Clinical Trials Register (EudraCT 2017-004699-77). FINDINGS Between May 4, 2018, and April 5, 2019, 211 patients (122 [58%] were male and 89 [42%] were female) were randomly assigned to receive ibrutinib-venetoclax (n=106) or chlorambucil-obinutuzumab (n=105). At a median of 46 months (IQR 43-47) of follow-up, progression-free survival remained superior for the ibrutinib-venetoclax group (hazard ratio 0·214 [95% CI 0·138-0·334]; p<0·0001); 42-month progression-free survival rates were 74·6% (95% CI 65·0-82·0) for ibrutinib-venetoclax and 24·8% (16·5-34·1) for chlorambucil-obinutuzumab. Following the primary analysis, one patient in the chlorambucil-obinutuzumab group had a serious adverse event of myelodysplastic syndrome. Treatment-related deaths were reported in one patient receiving ibrutinib-venetoclax (cardiac failure, pneumonia, and sinus node dysfunction) and in one patient receiving chlorambucil-obinutuzumab (pneumonia). There were 15 deaths in the ibrutinib-venetoclax group (of which three were due to post-treatment infections) and 30 deaths in the chlorambucil-obinutuzumab group (of which 10 were due to post-treatment infections). INTERPRETATION After 4 years of follow-up, ibrutinib-venetoclax continues to significantly prolong progression-free survival (vs chemoimmunotherapy) in patients with previously untreated chronic lymphocytic leukaemia, supporting its use as a first-line option.

Abstract
There remains an unmet need to optimize the first-line treatment of patients with high-risk large B cell lymphoma (LBCL), particularly those with a high International Prognostic Index (IPI) score or a positive interim positron emission tomography (PET) scan who experience poor outcomes with R-CHOP. This study was conducted to evaluate the real-world effectiveness of consolidative autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT) among patients with high-risk LBCL. This retrospective study included consecutive patients with LBCL and IPI score 4 or 5 who underwent consolidative ASCT as part of first-line therapy in Alberta, Canada. Progression-free survival (PFS), overall survival (OS), and disease-specific survival (DSS) were determined using the Kaplan-Meier method. The study cohort comprised 114 patients with median age of 60 years (range, 18 to 73 years), of whom 81 (71%) had an IPI score of 4 and 33 (29%) had an IPI score of 5. With a median follow-up of 5.6 years, the 5-year PFS was 72% (95% confidence interval [CI], 62% to 79%), 5-year OS was 74% (95% CI, 64% to 81%), and 5-year DSS was 80% (95% CI, 71% to 87%). There was no significant difference in PFS among patients with and patients without positive interim PET scans (n = 24), MYC and BCL2 and/or BCL6 rearrangements (n = 26), or central nervous system involvement (n = 15). Consolidative ASCT is associated with high cure rates and favorable survival outcomes in patients with high-risk LBCL and may overcome the adverse prognostic impact of a positive interim PET scan.

Abstract
Individuals with germ line variants associated with hereditary hematopoietic malignancies (HHMs) have a highly variable risk for leukemogenesis. Gaps in our understanding of premalignant states in HHMs have hampered efforts to design effective clinical surveillance programs, provide personalized preemptive treatments, and inform appropriate counseling for patients. We used the largest known comparative international cohort of germline RUNX1, GATA2, or DDX41 variant carriers without and with hematopoietic malignancies (HMs) to identify patterns of genetic drivers that are unique to each HHM syndrome before and after leukemogenesis. These patterns included striking heterogeneity in rates of early-onset clonal hematopoiesis (CH), with a high prevalence of CH in RUNX1 and GATA2 variant carriers who did not have malignancies (carriers-without HM). We observed a paucity of CH in DDX41 carriers-without HM. In RUNX1 carriers-without HM with CH, we detected variants in TET2, PHF6, and, most frequently, BCOR. These genes were recurrently mutated in RUNX1-driven malignancies, suggesting CH is a direct precursor to malignancy in RUNX1-driven HHMs. Leukemogenesis in RUNX1 and DDX41 carriers was often driven by second hits in RUNX1 and DDX41, respectively. This study may inform the development of HHM-specific clinical trials and gene-specific approaches to clinical monitoring. For example, trials investigating the potential benefits of monitoring DDX41 carriers-without HM for low-frequency second hits in DDX41 may now be beneficial. Similarly, trials monitoring carriers-without HM with RUNX1 germ line variants for the acquisition of somatic variants in BCOR, PHF6, and TET2 and second hits in RUNX1 are warranted.

Abstract
Following the recent publication of Canadian evidence-based guidelines for frontline treatment of chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL), the same group of clinicians developed guidelines for CLL in the relapsed/refractory (R/R) setting. The treatment of R/R CLL has changed significantly in the past few years, with many novel therapeutics available to hematologists across the country. These guidelines aim to standardize the management of CLL in the relapsed/refractory setting, using the best evidence currently available.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The Follicular lymphoma international prognostic index (FLIPI) risk score and POD24 have previously been shown to have prognostic value in follicular lymphoma (FL), but the extent to which they can inform prognosis at the time of subsequent relapse is uncertain. PATIENTS AND METHODS We conducted a longitudinal cohort study of individuals diagnosed with FL between 2004 and 2010 in Alberta, Canada who received front-line therapy and subsequently relapsed. FLIPI covariates were measured prior to the initiation of front-line therapy. Median overall survival (OS), progression-free survival (PFS2), and time to next treatment (TTNT2) were estimated from the time of relapse. RESULTS A total of 216 individuals were included. The FLIPI risk score was highly prognostic at the time of relapse for OS (c-statistic = 0.70; HR[High vs. Low] = 7.38; 95% CI: 3.05-17.88), PFS2 (c-statistic = 0.68; HR[High vs. Low] = 5.84; 95% CI: 2.93-11.62) and TTNT2 (c-statistic = 0.68; HR[High vs. Low] = 5.72; 95% CI: 2.87-11.41). POD24 was not prognostic at the time of relapse for either OS, PFS2, or TTNT2 (c-statistic = 0.55). CONCLUSION The FLIPI score measured at diagnosis may help with the risk stratification of individuals with relapsed FL.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) commonly affects older adults. However, few studies have examined the relationship between baseline geriatric domains and clinical outcomes in this population. Here, we aim to evaluate the use of a comprehensive geriatric assessment in older (>65 years) untreated patients with CLL to predict outcomes. MATERIALS AND METHODS We conducted a planned analysis of 369 patients with CLL age 65 or older treated in a phase 3 randomized trial of bendamustine plus rituximab versus ibrutinib plus rituximab versus ibrutinib alone (A041202). Patients underwent evaluations of geriatric domains including functional status, psychological status, social activity, cognition, social support, and nutritional status. We examined associations among baseline geriatric domains with grade 3+ adverse events using multivariable logistic regression and overall survival (OS) and progression-free survival (PFS) using multivariable Cox regression models. RESULTS In this study, the median age was 71 years (range: 65-87). In the combined multivariable model, the following geriatric domains were significantly associated with PFS: Medical Outcomes Study (MOS) - social activities survey score (hazard ratio [HR] [95% confidence interval (CI)] 0.974(0.961, 0.988), p = 0.0002) and nutritional status (≥5% weight loss in the preceding six months: (HR [95% CI] 2.717[1.696, 4.354], p < 0.001). MOS - social activities score [HR (95% CI) 0.978(0.958, 0.999), p = 0.038] was associated with OS. No geriatric domains were significantly associated with toxicity. There were no statistically significant interactions between geriatric domains and treatment. DISCUSSION Geriatric domains of social activity and nutritional status were associated with OS and/or PFS in older adults with CLL. These findings highlight the importance of assessing geriatric domains to identify high-risk patients with CLL who may benefit from additional support during treatment.

Abstract
The Lymphoma Diagnostic Pathway (LDP) was developed based upon clinical best practice guidelines and implemented in large urban centers where lymphoma treatment is provided in Alberta, Canada. A return-on-investment analysis of the implementation of this care pathway was conducted to inform future sustainability and expansion. A cohort design with propensity score matching and difference-in-difference estimation methods were used comparing both cost and return (reduced health service utilization) between patients who were diagnosed within the LDP and those who were diagnosed outside the LDP. LDP resulted in $1800 avoided HSU costs per patient. The LDP has been found to be cost-saving with an ROI of 5.3 (ranging from 3.95-8.97) - for every $1 invested, LDP resulted in a $5.30 return for the health system due to capacity improvements in ED, inpatient, outpatient, and a reduction in GP service utilization. Further study of implementation including patient/provider satisfaction and uptake is recommended.

Abstract
PURPOSE In GLOW, fixed-duration ibrutinib + venetoclax showed superior progression-free survival (PFS) versus chlorambucil + obinutuzumab in older/comorbid patients with previously untreated chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL). The current analysis describes minimal residual disease (MRD) kinetics and any potential predictive value for PFS, as it has not yet been evaluated for ibrutinib + venetoclax treatment. METHODS Undetectable MRD (uMRD) was assessed by next-generation sequencing at <1 CLL cell per 10,000 (<10-4) and <1 CLL cell per 100,000 (<10-5) leukocytes. PFS was analyzed by MRD status at 3 months after treatment (EOT+3). RESULTS Ibrutinib + venetoclax achieved deeper uMRD (<10-5) rates in bone marrow (BM) and peripheral blood (PB), respectively, in 40.6% and 43.4% of patients at EOT+3 versus 7.6% and 18.1% of patients receiving chlorambucil + obinutuzumab. Of these patients, uMRD (<10-5) in PB was sustained during the first year post-treatment (EOT+12) in 80.4% of patients receiving ibrutinib + venetoclax and 26.3% receiving chlorambucil + obinutuzumab. Patients with detectable MRD (dMRD; ≥10-4) in PB at EOT+3 were more likely to sustain MRD levels through EOT+12 with ibrutinib + venetoclax versus chlorambucil + obinutuzumab. PFS rates at EOT+12 were high among patients treated with ibrutinib + venetoclax regardless of MRD status at EOT+3: 96.3% and 93.3% in patients with uMRD (<10-4) and dMRD (≥10-4) in BM, respectively, versus 83.3% and 58.7% for patients receiving chlorambucil + obinutuzumab. PFS rates at EOT+12 also remained high in patients with unmutated immunoglobulin heavy-chain variable region (IGHV) receiving ibrutinib + venetoclax, independent of MRD status in BM. CONCLUSION Molecular and clinical relapses were less frequent during the first year post-treatment with ibrutinib + venetoclax versus chlorambucil + obinutuzumab regardless of MRD status at EOT+3 and IGHV status. Even for patients not achieving uMRD (<10-4), PFS rates remained high with ibrutinib + venetoclax; this is a novel finding and requires additional follow-up to confirm its persistence over time.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Continuous oral targeted therapies (OTT) represent a major economic burden on the Canadian healthcare system, due to their high cost and administration until disease progression/toxicity. The recent introduction of venetoclax-based fixed-duration combination therapies has the potential to reduce such costs. This study aims to estimate the prevalence and the cost of CLL in Canada with the introduction of fixed OTT. METHODS A state transition Markov model was developed and included five health states: watchful waiting, first-line treatment, relapsed/refractory treatment, and death. The number of CLL patients and total cost associated with CLL management in Canada for both continuous- and fixed-treatment-duration OTT were projected from 2020 to 2025. Costs included drug acquisition, follow-up/monitoring, adverse event, and palliative care. RESULTS The CLL prevalence in Canada is projected to increase from 15,512 to 19,517 between 2020 and 2025. Annual costs were projected at C$880.7 and C$703.1 million in 2025, for continuous and fixed OTT scenarios, respectively. Correspondingly, fixed OTT would provide a total cost reduction of C$213.8 million (5.94%) from 2020 to 2025, compared to continuous OTT. CONCLUSIONS Fixed OTT is expected to result in major reductions in cost burden over the 5-year projection, compared to continuous OTT.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Venetoclax is a first-in-class targeted therapy option that is an inducer of apoptosis in chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) cells. The open-label phase III CLL14 clinical trial showed that venetoclax combined with obinutuzumab (VEN+O) is superior to obinutuzumab combined with chlorambucil in newly diagnosed patients with CLL. The aim of this study was to assess the health economic value of VEN+O for the frontline treatment of CLL in Canada from a publicly funded healthcare system perspective. METHODS A partitioned survival analyses model was developed including three health states: progression free, progressed, and death. A cycle length of 28 days and a time horizon of 10 years was assumed. VEN+O treatment for a fixed duration of 12 months was compared to obinutuzumab combined with chlorambucil, fludarabine plus cyclophosphamide plus rituximab, bendamustine plus rituximab, chlorambucil plus rituximab, ibrutinib, and acalabrutinib. The population in the model included both unfit and overall frontline CLL patients, two subgroups were also assessed (patients with del17p/TP53 mutations and patients without del17p/TP53 mutations). Survival data extrapolated from the CLL14 trial were used to populate the model. Uncertainty was assessed via one-way sensitivity analyses, probabilistic analyses, and scenario analyses. RESULTS Based on the probabilistic analyses, unfit frontline CLL patients receiving VEN+O were estimated to incur costs of Canadian dollars ($) 217,727 [confidence interval (CI) $170,725, $300,761] (del17p/TP53: $209,102 [CI $159,698, $386,190], non-del17p/TP53: $217,732 [CI $171,232, $299,063]) and accrue 4.96 [CI 4.04, 5.82] quality-adjusted life-years (del17p/TP53: 3.11 [CI 2.00, 4.20], non-del17p/TP53: 5.04 [CI 4.05, 5.92]). Obinutuzumab combined with chlorambucil, bendamustine plus rituximab, chlorambucil plus rituximab, and ibrutinib accrued lower quality-adjusted life-years and higher costs and as such, VEN+O was the dominant treatment option. The full incremental analysis showed that acalabrutinib was more expensive and more efficacious compared with VEN+O with an incremental-cost-effectiveness-ratio of $2,139,180/quality-adjusted life-year versus VEN+O and not a cost-effective option in Canada. Probabilistic analyses show that at a willingness to pay of $50,000/quality-adjusted life-year gained, VEN+O has the greatest probability of being cost effective. CONCLUSIONS VEN+O is a cost-effective treatment option for unfit frontline CLL patients and provides value for money to healthcare payers.

Abstract
Chronic lymphocytic leukemia (cll) is the most common adult leukemia in North America. In 2018, the first unified national guideline in Canada was developed for the front-line treatment of cll that helped guide treatment across the country. As an update in 2022, a group of clinical experts from across Canada came together to provide input and guidance that included new and innovative treatments and approaches that will continue to provide health care professionals with clear guidance on the first-line management of cll. Recommendations were provided in consensus based on available evidence for the first-line treatment of cll.

Abstract
Although autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT) can achieve durable responses in eligible patients with follicular lymphoma (FL), long-term follow-up is needed to determine if it has curative potential. This retrospective, multicenter study included 162 patients who received ASCT for relapsed FL in Alberta, Canada. With a median (range) follow-up time of 12.5 years (0.1-27.9), the 12-year time-to-progression (TTP) was 57% (95% confidence interval [CI] 49%-65%), time-to-next-treatment was 61% (95% CI 52%-69%), progression-free survival was 51% (95% CI 42%-59%) and overall survival was 69% (95% CI 60%-76%). A plateau emerged on the TTP curve at 57% starting 9 years after ASCT with no relapses occurring beyond this timepoint. Ten patients remained in remission 20 years or more after ASCT. Patients undergoing ASCT at first or second relapse had superior outcomes compared to third or later relapse (12-year TTP 61% vs. 34%), as did patients without progression of disease within 24 months (POD24) of frontline treatment versus those with POD24 (12-year TTP 67% vs. 50%). ASCT achieves high rates of durable remission in relapsed FL, with long-term follow-up revealing that more than 50% of transplanted patients may be functionally cured of their lymphoma. The optimal timing to consider ASCT is at first or second relapse, regardless of POD24 status.

Abstract
WHAT IS THIS SUMMARY ABOUT? This is a plain language summary of a publication describing long-term results from the RESONATE-2 study with up to 8 years of follow-up. The original paper was published in Blood Advances in June 2022. WHAT WERE THE RESULTS? Researchers looked at 269 adults with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) or small lymphocytic lymphoma (SLL) who had not received any treatment for their CLL/SLL. Study participants were randomly divided into two groups: 136 participants received treatment with a drug called ibrutinib, and 133 participants received treatment with a drug called chlorambucil. Participants in the study were treated and followed for up to 8 years, with results showing that more participants who took ibrutinib (59%) were alive without worsening of their disease at 7 years after starting treatment than participants who took chlorambucil (9%). Almost half of the participants (42%) were able to stay on ibrutinib treatment for up to 8 years. WHAT DO THE RESULTS OF THE STUDY MEAN? In people with CLL or SLL, more participants who were taking ibrutinib were alive without worsening of their disease after 7 years compared with participants who took chlorambucil. Clinical Trial Registration: NCT01722487 (ClinicalTrials.gov) Clinical Trial Registration: NCT01724346 (ClinicalTrials.gov).

Abstract
BACKGROUND Other iatrogenic immunosuppression associated lymphoproliferative disorders (Oii-LPD) is rare subset of lymphoma. There are limited published data on the clinical characteristics and outcomes of this patient population. The primary objective of this study was to describe the clinical characteristics and outcomes of Alberta patients diagnosed with lymphoma following immunosuppressive therapy for autoimmune conditions. Secondary objectives included describing the incidence of Oii-LPD, proportions of subtypes of lymphoma diagnosed and the nature of immunosuppressants used. The outcomes of patients with iatrogenic immunodeficiency-associated diffuse large B cell lymphoma (DLBCL) were compared against a matched control group of patients with de novo DLBCL. PATIENTS AND METHODS The study is a descriptive retrospective cohort study with a matched historical control comparison for patients with DLBCL. Alberta lymphoma patients, diagnosed from January 2011 to December 2019, with a history of iatrogenic immunosuppression were identified and described. RESULTS The incidence of Oii-LPD was 1% of total Alberta lymphoma cases. Majority of this cohort were diagnosed with DLBCL (54.9%) and the most common immunosuppressive agents were methotrexate (62%), hydroxychloroquine (42%), and TNF inhibitors (31%). Survival was not different between Oii-LPD DLBCL and de novo DLBCL with 5-year survival rates of 64.1% and 67%, respectively (HR 1.11 [95% CI, 0.64-1.94]). CONCLUSION Oii-LPD are rare with the most frequent subtype being DLBCL occurring in the setting of methotrexate use. In this population-based analysis, the outcomes of iatrogenic immunodeficiency-associated DLBCL were not significantly different from those of de novo DLBCL patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Frailty is a medical syndrome characterised by reduced physiological reserve and increased vulnerability to stressors. Data regarding the relationship between frailty and atrial fibrillation (AF) are still inconsistent. OBJECTIVES We aim to perform a comprehensive evaluation of frailty in a large European cohort of AF patients. METHODS A 40-item frailty index (FI) was built according to the accumulation of deficits model in the AF patients enrolled in the ESC-EHRA EORP-AF General Long-Term Registry. Association of baseline characteristics, clinical management, quality of life, healthcare resources use and risk of outcomes with frailty was examined. RESULTS Among 10,177 patients [mean age (standard deviation) 69.0 (11.4) years, 4,103 (40.3%) females], 6,066 (59.6%) were pre-frail and 2,172 (21.3%) were frail, whereas only 1,939 (19.1%) were considered robust. Baseline thromboembolic and bleeding risks were independently associated with increasing FI. Frail patients with AF were less likely to be treated with oral anticoagulants (OACs) (odds ratio 0.70, 95% confidence interval 0.55-0.89), especially with non-vitamin K antagonist OACs and managed with a rhythm control strategy, compared with robust patients. Increasing frailty was associated with a higher risk for all outcomes examined, with a non-linear exponential relationship. The use of OAC was associated with a lower risk of outcomes, except in patients with very/extremely high frailty. CONCLUSIONS In this large cohort of AF patients, there was a high burden of frailty, influencing clinical management and risk of adverse outcomes. The clinical benefit of OAC is maintained in patients with high frailty, but not in very high/extremely frail ones.

Abstract
Fixed-Duration Ibrutinib-Venetoclax for CLLAmong 211 patients with CLL who received ibrutinib-venetoclax or chlorambucil-obinutuzumab, there were 22 and 67 progression-free survival (PFS) events at a median follow-up of 27.7 months, respectively. PFS was significantly longer (P<0.001), and improvement with ibrutinib-venetoclax was consistent across subgroups. Adverse events (grade ≥3) were similar in both arms.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The Alliance A041202/CCTG CLC.2 trial demonstrated superior progression-free survival with ibrutinib-based therapy compared to chemoimmunotherapy with bendamustine-rituximab (BR) in previously untreated older patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia. We completed a prospective trial-based economic analysis of Canadian patients to study the direct medical costs and quality-adjusted benefit associated with these therapies. METHODS Mean survival was calculated using the restricted mean survival method from randomization to the study time-horizon of 24 months. Health state utilities were collected using the EuroQOL EQ-5D instrument with Canadian tariffs applied to calculate quality-adjusted life years (QALYs). Costs were applied to resource utilization data (expressed in 2019 US dollars). We examined costs and QALYs associated ibrutinib, ibrutinib with rituximab (IR), and BR therapy. RESULTS A total of 55 patients were enrolled; two patients were excluded from the analysis. On-protocol costs (associated with protocol-specified resource use) were higher for patients receiving ibrutinib (mean $189,335; P < 0.0001) and IR (mean $219,908; P < 0.0001) compared to BR (mean $51,345), driven by higher acquisition costs for ibrutinib. Total mean costs (over 2-years) were $192,615 with ibrutinib, $223,761 with IR, and $55,413 with BR (P < 0.0001 for ibrutinib vs. BR and P < 0.0001 for IR vs. BR). QALYs were similar between the three treatment arms: 1.66 (0.16) for ibrutinib alone, 1.65 (0.24) for IR, and 1.66 (0.17) for BR; therefore, a formal cost-utility analysis was not conducted. CONCLUSIONS Direct medical costs are higher for patients receiving ibrutinib-based therapies compared to chemoimmunotherapy in frontline chronic lymphocytic leukemia, with the cost of ibrutinib representing a key driver.

Abstract
Assessment of measurable residual disease (often referred to as "minimal residual disease") has emerged as a highly sensitive indicator of disease burden during and at the end of treatment and has been correlated with time-to-event outcomes in chronic lymphocytic leukemia. Undetectable-measurable residual disease status at the end of treatment demonstrated independent prognostic significance in chronic lymphocytic leukemia, correlating with favorable progression-free and overall survival with chemoimmunotherapy. Given its utility in evaluating depth of response, determining measurable residual disease status is now a focus of outcomes in chronic lymphocytic leukemia clinical trials. Increased adoption of measurable residual disease assessment calls for standards for nomenclature and outcomes data reporting. In addition, many basic questions have not been systematically addressed. Here, we present the work of an international, multidisciplinary, 174-member panel convened to identify critical questions on key issues pertaining to measurable residual disease in chronic lymphocytic leukemia, review evaluable data, develop unified answers in conjunction with local expert input, and provide recommendations for future studies. Recommendations are presented regarding methodology for measurable residual disease determination, assay requirements and in which tissue to assess measurable residual disease, timing and frequency of assessment, use of measurable residual disease in clinical practice versus clinical trials, and the future usefulness of measurable residual disease assessment. Nomenclature is also proposed. Adoption of these recommendations will work toward standardizing data acquisition and interpretation in future studies with new treatments with the ultimate objective of improving outcomes and curing chronic lymphocytic leukemia.

Abstract
Ibrutinib has superior progression-free survival compared with bendamustine plus rituximab (BR) in older CLL patients, however, differences in treatment duration, six monthly BR cycles versus continuous ibrutinib, complicate adverse event (AE) comparisons. We introduce the AE burden score (AEsc) to compare AEs, calculated for each patient by summing over products of reporting period length and grade for each all-cause grade 1-4 AE and dividing by the length of time over which AEs are assessed. A total of 176 patients received BR and 361 ibrutinib alone or with six cycles of rituximab. At 38 months median follow-up, 64% remained on ibrutinib. Median AEsc was higher with BR versus ibrutinib in the first six cycles (7.2 versus 4.9, p < 0.0001). Within ibrutinib arms, median AEsc decreased significantly to 3.7 after six cycles (p < 0.0001). 10% and 14% of BR and ibrutinib patients discontinued treatment for AEs. In ibrutinib arms, cumulative incidence of grade 3 or higher atrial fibrillation, hypertension, and infection (AEs of clinical interest) at 12 months was 4.5%, 17.5%, and 12.8%, respectively, and increased more slowly thereafter to 7.7%, 25.4%, and 20.5% at 36 months. Analytical tools including the AEsc and cumulative incidence of AEs can help to better characterize AE burden over time. ClinicalTrials.gov identifier: NCT01886872.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To summarize the role of Bruton tyrosine kinase (BTK) inhibitors in the management of chronic lymphocytic leukemia with a focus on the nursing role in relation to patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia being treated with BTK inhibitors. DATA SOURCES These include published articles (PubMed) and national and international guideline documents. CONCLUSION BTK inhibitors have revolutionized the therapy of chronic lymphocytic leukemia and have become the most frequently used therapy today. Despite the many advantages of BTK inhibitors, adverse events remain a leading cause of treatment discontinuation, particularly for the first-in-class BTK inhibitor. Second-generation BTK inhibitors appear to have a better tolerability profile but still require adverse event management given their prolonged duration of therapy. Awareness and management of side effects by the oncology care team is essential for ensuring both compliance and safety with ongoing treatment. IMPLICATIONS FOR NURSING PRACTICE Chronic lymphocytic leukemia is a chronic illness with a long-life expectancy. For the patients who require therapy, BTK inhibitor therapy is a frequently applied treatment with impressive efficacy. BTK inhibitors are continued indefinitely until disease progression or significant toxicity; therefore, the overall principles of careful assessment for side effects, diligent management for these, and individualized patient support provided by oncology nurses is vital in this patient population.

Abstract
Central nervous system (CNS) relapse affects 5% of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) patients and portends a poor prognosis. Prophylactic intravenous high-dose methotrexate (HD-MTX) is frequently employed to reduce this risk, but there is limited evidence supporting this practice. We conducted a multicenter retrospective study to determine the CNS relapse risk with HD-MTX in DLBCL patients aged 18-70 years treated in Alberta, Canada between 2012 and 2019. Provincial guidelines recommended HD-MTX for patients at high-risk of CNS relapse based upon CNS-IPI score, double-hit lymphoma, or testicular involvement. Among 906 patients with median follow-up 35.3 months (range 0.29-105.7), CNS relapse occurred in 1.9% with CNS-IPI 0-1, 4.9% with CNS-IPI 2-3, and 12.2% with CNS-IPI 4-6 (p < .001). HD-MTX was administered to 115/326 (35.3%) high-risk patients, of whom 96 (83.5%) had CNS-IPI score 4-6, 45 (39.1%) had double-hit lymphoma, and four (3.5%) had testicular lymphoma. The median number of HD-MTX doses was two (range 1-3). Central nervous system relapse risk was similar with versus without HD-MTX (11.2% vs. 12.2%, p = .82) and comparable to previous reports of high-risk patients who did not receive CNS prophylaxis (10-12%). In multivariate and propensity score analyses, HD-MTX demonstrated no association with CNS relapse, progression-free survival, or overall survival. This study did not demonstrate a benefit of prophylactic HD-MTX in this high-risk patient population. Further study is required to determine the optimal strategy to prevent CNS relapse in DLBCL.

Abstract
Introduction In Wessex Deanery, prior to the COVID-19 pandemic, Geriatric Medicine trainees from 10 NHS trusts attended face-to-face regional teaching sessions. In response to the pandemic, this teaching was suspended to reduce disruption in service provision and support social distancing. There was a clear need to reintroduce teaching for continued professional development and trainee progression. Methods In July 2020, Geriatric Medicine trainees in Wessex completed a questionnaire survey to identify their desire for socially distanced teaching and an acceptable format for delivery. Two half-day pilot teaching sessions via MS Teams were organised in September and October 2020. Trainees provided feedback via a questionnaire survey about the relevance and quality of teaching, and to identify any barriers to attendance. Subsequently, a monthly full-day virtual teaching programme was implemented. We reported reflections of our experiences on our trainee website to support future sessions. Results All trainees (n = 15) were eager for regional teaching to recommence through socially distanced education. Trainees had a preference for MS Teams, which can support interactive teaching. Attendance to the pilot sessions exceeded previous face-to-face sessions. 19 trainees attended the first session; 17 provided feedback. 28 trainees attended the second session; 12 provided feedback. Feedback was overwhelmingly positive; all reported the sessions were interesting and 82% (n = 14) that they would lead to changes in their practice. Some trainees expressed that full-day sessions would enhance curriculum coverage. 94% (n = 16) were positive of the virtual platform; it reduced travel and sessions could be recorded. Local trainees attended the second session in-person, which enhanced interactivity. Conclusion Virtual teaching has been successful in Wessex Deanery, with high attendance and positive feedback. Trainees can engage remotely without the need for travel and disruption. After the pandemic we hope to develop a regional teaching programme integrating virtual and face-to-face sessions to improve attendance and accessibility.

Abstract
Background:The pathogenesis of rheumatic immune-related adverse events (irAEs) from checkpoint inhibitor cancer immunotherapy directed against programmed cell death protein 1 (PD-1) and programmed death ligand 1 (PD-L1) remains unknown, even though they are a consequence of pharmacologic inhibition of a specific immune mechanism. Given that some irAEs resemble polymyalgia rheumatica (PMR) or giant cell arteritis (GCA), a disease whose pathogenesis is poorly understood, observations regarding the pathogenesis of PMR-like or GCA-like irAEs are of significant interest. One proposed pathogenic mechanism involves generalized immune activation leading to a spectrum of subclinical disease. Interrogation of this hypothesis may be aided by PET/CT, which is frequently utilized for oncological staging purposes but is also useful in classical PMR or GCA diagnosis. If PMR or GCA irAEs merely represent a spectrum of generalized immune activation, low-grade subclinical PMR or GCA-related changes on PET/CT might be expected to be seen in patients who receive immunotherapy, irrespective of whether they develop clinically evident rheumatic irAEs.Objectives:This study investigated whether such changes occurred in patients receiving immunotherapy who did not develop clinically evident rheumatic irAEs.Methods:Consecutive patients exposed to PD-1 or PD-L1 inhibitor immunotherapy at a single center had scintigraphic uptake calculated by a nuclear medicine physician experienced in assessment of vasculitis. Patients were included if they had had 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose (18F-FDG) PET/CT imaging both within the two weeks prior to immunotherapy initiation and after at least eleven weeks of immunotherapy. Patients who went on to develop a rheumatic irAE were excluded, as were patients with scintigraphic evidence of liver metastases owing to their potential influence on scoring of uptake. Quantification of 18F-FDG uptake by maximum standardized uptake values (maximum standard unit value, SUVmax) was performed at sites relevant to PMR or GCA (17 sites relevant to PMR, 17 sites relevant to GCA) in paired scans, and the difference calculated.Results:Twenty-four patients receiving nivolumab, pembrolizumab or avelumab met the inclusion criteria, primarily for melanoma, non-small cell lung cancer, or lymphoma. The mean age was 67 at the time of the first scan, 71% were male, and 66% had a complete or partial oncological response at best response. No statistically or clinically significant difference in SUVmax was noted at any PMR or GCA-relevant anatomical site interrogated. Latent class analysis did not reveal clusters identifiable by cancer type, best response, or presence of combination therapy.Conclusion:Patients treated with PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitors without clinically evident rheumatic irAEs do not develop subclinical PMR or GCA-like changes on PET/CT. This supports the proposition that PMR-like and GCA-like irAEs are a distinct entity with stochastic onset, and do not simply represent generalized immune activation induced by immunotherapy.Acknowledgements:David Liew is the recipient of the Ronald John Gleghorn Bursary from the University of Melbourne.Disclosure of Interests:David Liew: None declared, Aurora Poon: None declared, Christopher McMaster: None declared, Claire Owen Speakers bureau: Roche, Jessica Leung Speakers bureau: GIlead, Novartis, Albert Frauman: None declared, Jonathan Cebon: None declared, Andrew Scott: None declared, Russell Buchanan: None declared

Abstract
Background:Giant cell arteritis (GCA), if left untreated, confers the threat of serious cranial ischaemic complications including permanent visual loss. Although achieving a prompt and accurate diagnosis remains challenging, early diagnosis is viewed as being paramount in preventing significant morbidity.1 This raises the question of whether GCA patients are at greater risk of developing visual sequelae if there is a longer window between symptom onset and presentation.Objectives:To compare the frequency of lasting visual loss in patients diagnosed with GCA undergoing temporal artery biopsy (TAB) within three months and after three months of symptom onset.Methods:Patients who underwent TAB from January 2011 to November 2020 were identified from the pathology database of an Australian rheumatology referral centre. The diagnosis of GCA was established for each patient based on either positive TAB or, in the setting of negative TAB, clinical diagnosis by a rheumatologist. Baseline demographics, symptoms and major confounders – including age, sex, history of polymyalgia rheumatica or inflammatory arthritis, headache, jaw pain, fatigue, temporal artery tenderness or diminished pulse, and number of 1990 American College of Rheumatology (ACR) classification criteria for GCA2 fulfilled – were manually extracted from electronic medical records, as was the duration between onset of GCA symptoms and TAB, and the presence of visual loss before and after TAB. Logistic regression log-likelihood tests were used to examine the two cohorts presenting before and after three months.Results:There were 167 patients who underwent TAB during the study period with accessible clinical information. Of these, 31 (19%) had a delayed presentation of greater than three months from symptom onset. There were no statistical differences in patient demographics between the two groups (Table 1). No patients with delayed presentation experienced lasting, objective visual loss. In contrast, there were three cases in the cohort of patients who presented more promptly; these included two patients who developed permanent unilateral blindness, and one who experienced unilateral vision loss with some improvement at three months of follow-up.Table 1.Patient characteristics by time from symptom onset to TAB.Presentation <3 monthsPresentation ≥3 monthsp-valueAge (years)73.45±10.0669.84±10.750.080Female92 (67.65%)20 (64.52%)0.738History of polymyalgia rheumatica23 (16.91%)4 (12.90%)0.586History of inflammatory arthritis6 (4.41%)2 (6.45%)0.633Headache110 (80.88%)23 (74.19%)0.406Jaw pain37 (27.21%)5 (16.13%)0.206Fatigue28 (20.59%)6 (19.35%)0.878Temporal artery tenderness or diminished pulse46 (33.82%)11 (35.48%)0.860ACR classification criteria2.83±0.992.58±0.890.199Conclusion:GCA patients with a lengthier course of symptoms before diagnosis did not experience any enduring visual loss.

Abstract
Background:GCA is characterized by cranial symptoms but imaging techniques show that patients with non-specific symptoms such as systemic inflammation or PMR may have undiagnosed large vessel (LV) GCA1. Although silent GCA in patients with clinically isolated PMR may have consequences for patients’ outcome, little is known about its prevalence and characteristics of affected patients.Objectives:To review data on the prevalence of silent GCA in newly diagnosed PMR patients without cranial GCA symptoms and to analyze which characteristics are associated with vascular involvement among PMR patients.Methods:We systematically screened PubMed, Embase and Web of Science databases and included studies screening for GCA in steroid naïve PMR patients without cranial symptoms consistent with GCA. Authors of the publications that used PET for vasculitis screening were invited to share their individual patient data (IPD) for a meta-analysis. We sought to define patient characteristics that were associated with vasculitis using univariable mixed effects logistic regression models with vascular involvement as the outcome, missing values were imputed using multilevel joint modeling multiple imputation. To fit a multivariable model with the candidate predictors we excluded variables that were hypothesized to have less medical relevance for the outcome and highly correlated inflammation markers (ESR, Lc).Results:Out of the 3047 studies screened independently by 2 authors (DG and TD), 13 fulfilled the inclusion criteria. These studies (published 1963-2019) reported on 543 PMR patients examined by temporal artery biopsy (n=175), ultrasound (n=110), PET or PET-CT (n=258). 115 PMR patients were diagnosed with GCA (21.2%), with prevalence ranging from 0-92%.We collected IPD for 243 patients from 4 cohorts using PET and 3 using PET/CT for GCA diagnosis. The overall median age of patients was 72.3 years (IQR 66.4-78.0) and vasculitis was found in 65 patients (26.7%) (table 1).Table 1.OverallPMRPMR+GCAn (%)243178 (73.3)65 (26.7)Female sex (%)146 (60.1)98 (55.1)48 (73.8)Shoulder girdle pain (%)236 (97.1)174 (97.8)62 (95.4)Pelvic girdle pain (%)174 (71.6)127 (71.3)47 (72.3)Inflammatory back pain (%)No107 (44.0)83 (46.6)24 (36.9)Yes106 (43.6)70 (39.3)36 (55.4)Lower limb pain (%)No87 (35.8)61 (34.3)26 (40.0)Yes81 (33.3)68 (38.2)13 (20.0)Weight loss (%)112 (46.1)78 (43.8)34 (52.3)CRP (mg/l) (median [IQR])46.0 [19.0, 77.7]44.0 [16.9, 74.2]52.0 [27.9, 85.0]ESR (mm/h) (mean (SD))65.2 (30.3)62.7 (30.2)72.3 (29.7)Hemoglobin (g/dl) (mean (SD))12.1 (1.5)12.2 (1.5)11.7 (1.6)Thrombocytes (1e+09/ml) (mean (SD))341.9 (106.3)323.9 (103.2)375.8 (104.6)In the univariable analyses the following factors were most strongly associated with vasculitic PET findings: female sex (OR 2.31, CI 1.17-4.58), inflammatory back pain (OR 2.73, CI 1.32-5.64), temperature >37° (OR 1.83, CI 0.90-3.7), weight loss (OR 1.83, CI 0.96-3.51), thrombocytosis (i.e., patients with a thrombocyte count 1 SD above mean have an OR of 1.51, CI 1.05-2.18), anemia (i.e., 1 g/dl decrease in Hb below mean corresponds to an OR of 1.25, CI 1.00-1.56). Patients with lower limb pain were less likely to have vasculitis (OR 0.43, CI 0.19–0.95). The estimated ORs were very similar in the multivariable model although the 95%CIs became wider.Conclusion:Although the prevalence across published studies showed substantial variation, 6 out of 13 studies reported a prevalence of silent GCA in 18-40% of all PMR patients. The exploratory analysis of the collected IPD identified female sex, inflammatory back pain, fever, weight loss, absence of lower leg pain, thrombocytosis and anemia as factors associated with LV-GCA. These findings should be validated in future prospective cohort studies. The presence or absence of these factors may further aid in diagnosing LV-GCA in PMR patients.References:[1]Buttgereit F, Dejaco C, Matteson EL, Dasgupta B.

Abstract
7523 Background: Ibrutinib, a once-daily Bruton’s tyrosine kinase inhibitor, is the only targeted therapy with significant progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) benefit in multiple randomized phase 3 studies versus established therapies in patients (pts) with previously untreated chronic lymphocytic leukemia/small lymphocytic lymphoma (CLL/SLL). Extended long-term follow-up data for the RESONATE-2 study of first-line ibrutinib vs chlorambucil in older pts with CLL/SLL are reported. Methods: In the phase 3 RESONATE-2 study, older pts (≥65 years [y]) with previously untreated CLL/SLL and without del(17p) (N=269) were randomly assigned 1:1 to once-daily single-agent ibrutinib 420 mg until disease progression (PD) or unacceptable toxicity (n=136) or chlorambucil 0.5–0.8 mg/kg up to 12 cycles (n=133). Outcomes included PFS, OS, overall response rate (ORR), and safety. Long-term responses were investigator-assessed per 2008 iwCLL criteria. Results: With up to 7y of follow-up (median, 74.9 months; range, 0.1–86.8), significant PFS benefit was sustained for pts treated with ibrutinib vs chlorambucil (hazard ratio [HR] 0.160 [95% confidence interval (CI): 0.111–0.230]). At 6.5y, PFS was 61% in pts treated with ibrutinib vs 9% in pts treated with chlorambucil. This PFS benefit was observed across all subgroups, including in ibrutinib-treated pts with high-risk genomic features of unmutated IGHV (HR 0.109 [95% CI: 0.063–0.189]) or del(11q) (HR 0.033 [95% CI: 0.010–0.107]). OS at 6.5y was 78% with ibrutinib treatment. ORR was 92% for ibrutinib-treated pts with complete response (CR/CRi) rate increasing to 34% with this follow-up. Ongoing rates of grade ≥3 adverse events (AEs) of interest remained low for hypertension (5–6y interval: 5%, n=4; 6–7y: 4%, n=3) and atrial fibrillation (5–6y: 1%, n=1; 6–7y: 1%, n=1); no grade ≥3 major hemorrhage occurred in 5–7y. Dose reductions due to grade ≥3 AEs occurred in 1% (n=1) of pts during the 5–6y and 6–7y intervals. Across full follow-up, 31 pts had dose reductions due to any-grade AEs of whom 22/31 (71%) had resolution or improvement the AE. Primary reason for discontinuations in 5–7y was PD (5–6y: 5%, n=4; 6–7y: 6%, n=4). Any-grade AEs leading to discontinuations were seen in 3% (n=2) of pts from 5–6y and none in 6–7y. With over 7y of follow-up, 47% of pts remain on single-agent ibrutinib. Conclusions: Extended long-term data from RESONATE-2 demonstrate the sustained PFS and OS benefit of first-line ibrutinib treatment for pts with CLL, including for pts with high-risk genomic features. Responses continue to deepen over time. Rates of grade ≥3 AEs of interest continued to be low at up to 7y follow-up and further discontinuations and dose reductions due to AEs were rare; most AEs leading to dose reduction resolved or improved. Ibrutinib remains well tolerated with no new safety signals observed. Clinical trial information: NCT01722487, NCT01724346.

Abstract
Background Lichen sclerosus (LS) is a scarring chronic inflammatory disease with a predilection for genital skin in both sexes. The aetiology of LS is controversial, but evidence increasingly suggests that the occluded exposure of susceptible epithelium to urine is involved in the pathogenesis of genital LS in males. This theory has not yet been robustly investigated in females. Objectives This review and meta‐analysis examined whether there is an association between urinary incontinence (UI) and genital lichen LS in females. Methods We performed a comprehensive search of MEDLINE, Embase and CINAHL to identify observational studies assessing the prevalence of UI in females with LS. DerSimonian and Laird random‐effects models were used to estimate the overall pooled prevalence and risk ratio compared to controls. Heterogeneity was assessed. Results In total, eight studies met the inclusion criteria and five studies were included in a meta‐analysis. Three studies were graded as moderate quality and five were poor. The pooled prevalence for UI in LS was 0.35 (95% confidence interval [CI] 0.13–0.58, I2 = 98.4%). The risk ratio of UI in LS was 0.97 (95% CI 0.53–1.75, I2 = 87.5%). Conclusion There appears to be no difference between patients with LS and those without LS in terms of UI. Studies are limited by clinical and methodological quality and heterogeneity is high. Well‐designed prospective studies are needed.

Abstract
Pneumothorax can be spontaneous or secondary to a pre-existing disorder or trauma. Pneumothorax
associated with pneumoperitoneum without thoraco-abdominal communication is a rare event poorly
described in the literature. We report the case of a 73-year-old patient undergoing abdominal debulking
surgery for advanced stage ovarian cancer complicated by a pneumoperitoneum and a right-sided
pneumothorax without hernia or evidence of diaphragmatic trauma. Several physio-pathological hypotheses
have been suggested, including a potential COVID-19 infection without clear etiology. Our case report
emphasizes the possible association of pneumothorax with pneumoperitoneum related to a colon perforation
without visible diaphragmatic or mediastinal defects.

Abstract
PURPOSE In previous analyses of the MURANO study, fixed-duration venetoclax plus rituximab (VenR) resulted in improved progression-free survival (PFS) compared with bendamustine plus rituximab (BR) in patients with relapsed or refractory chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL). At the 4-year follow-up, we report long-term outcomes, response to subsequent therapies, and the predictive value of molecular and genetic characteristics. PATIENTS AND METHODS Patients with CLL were randomly assigned to 2 years of venetoclax (VenR for the first six cycles) or six cycles of BR. PFS, overall survival (OS), peripheral-blood minimal residual disease (MRD) status, genomic complexity (GC), and gene mutations were assessed. RESULTS Of 389 patients, 194 were assigned to VenR and 195 to BR. Four-year PFS and OS rates were higher with VenR than BR, at 57.3% and 4.6% (hazard ratio [HR], 0.19; 95% CI, 0.14 to 0.25), and 85.3% and 66.8% (HR, 0.41; 95% CI, 0.26 to 0.65), respectively. Undetectable MRD (uMRD) at end of combination therapy (EOCT) was associated with superior PFS compared with low MRD positivity (HR, 0.50) and high MRD positivity (HR, 0.15). Patients in the VenR arm who received ibrutinib as their first therapy after progression (n = 12) had a reported response rate of 100% (10 of 10 evaluable patients); patients subsequently treated with a venetoclax-based regimen (n = 14) had a reported response rate of 55% (six of 11 evaluable patients). With VenR, the uMRD rate at end of treatment (EOT) was lower in patients with GC than in those without GC (P = .042); higher GC was associated with shorter PFS. Higher MRD positivity rates were seen with BIRC3 and BRAF mutations at EOCT and with TP53, NOTCH1, XPO1, and BRAF mutations at EOT. CONCLUSION Efficacy benefits with fixed-duration VenR are sustained and particularly durable in patients who achieve uMRD. Salvage therapy with ibrutinib after VenR achieved high response rates. Genetic mutations and GC affected MRD rates and PFS.

Abstract
Background:EGPA is a small vessel vasculitis characterised by the presence of tissue eosinophilia, necrotising vasculitis and granulomatous inflammation1. Typically, a prodromal asthmatic phase, leads to an eosinophilic stage, which can evolve to include the presence of vasculitis with renal manifestations. In the recent randomised, placebo-controlled MIRRA trial for relapsing and refractory EGPA, adjuvant therapy with anti-IL5 mAB Mepolizumab [MEPO] at 300mg s/c monthly, accrued longer times in remission, reduced steroid exposure and reduced relapse rates2.Objectives:The aim of our study was to analyse the response and outcome for EGPA patients who received 100mg s/c of MEPO monthly for a minimum of 52 weeks, with particular focus on the steroid minimisation benefits.Methods:This retrospective, descriptive study analysed 13 patients with EGPA, who received 100mg s/m monthly MEPO therapy under the eosinophilic asthma care-pathway. Time points of assessment included MEPO commencement [M0] and 12 [M12] months.Results:Table 1.EGPA patients receiving Mepolizumab therapy for one year [100mg s/c]DemographicsAll [n=13]Gender ratio M/F4M:9FANCA positive/ negativeANCA: 3MPO, 1 PR3 positive/ 9 ANCA negativeAge of diagnosis of asthma35 yrs [IQR 28.5-40]Age of diagnosis of EGPA47 yrs [IQR 43.5-53.5]Median age51 yrs [IQR 47.5- 60.5]EGPA disease characteristicsN=13 [%]Asthma 13 [100]Serum eosinophilia or biopsy evidence [N= 12] 12 [100]Pulmonary infiltrates, non-fixed 8[61.5]Neuropathy, mono/poly 4[30.7]Sino-nasal abnormality 12[92.3]Glomerulonephritis 3[23]Cardiovascular 4[30.7]Prior ImmunosuppressantsN=13 [%]Steroids13[100%]Cyclophosphamide 6[46%]Rituximab6[46%]Azathioprine10[77%]Mycophenolate mofetil8[62%]Methotrexate4[31%]Campath 1[7%]Response to therapyM0 [%] Post M12 [%]Prednisolone dose N= 13Mean ±SD 18.925 mg ±11.44 10.575mg ± 5.85Eosinophil count X109/L N=13Mean ±SD 0.415mg ±0.25 0.035±0.039Asthma Control Questionnaire [ACQ] N=5Mean ±SD 2.92 ±1.27 1.31± 0.79BVAS N= 13Mean ±SD 7.307±6.29 2.2307±1.69Creatinine N=9Mean ±SD 68.44±15.03 69.11±17.84Continuation of anti-IL5 therapy N=13 12/13 [92.3%]Conclusion:The relapsing nature of EGPA places a potential dependency of therapy on steroids for asthmatic and vasculitic flares.

Abstract
Background:Temporal artery biopsy (TAB) is widely recognised as the diagnostic gold standard for GCA despite having a poor sensitivity due to the presence of ‘skip’ lesions. There is, however, a lack of consensus guiding TAB practice, particularly in relation to optimal length, need for bilateral specimens, and number of segments examined.Objectives:To investigate the impact of factors such as total biopsied length, laterality, segment number, and referral centre on histopathological outcomes in an Australian setting.Methods:Reports for all available biopsy specimens labelled “temporal artery” were extracted from the pathology service records of two rheumatology referral centres with adjacent geographic catchments. Each histopathology report was manually reviewed to establish length of biopsied artery, laterality, and number of segments, along with patient demographics such as age, sex, and referral centre. Key histopathological findings including intimal hyperplasia, disruption of the internal elastic lamina, presence of giant cells, and adventitial inflammation were recorded. Multivariable logistic regression with site-varying intercept was performed.Results:TAB reports from a total of 577 patients were captured, with results available from the two centres from 1999-2019 and 2010-2019 respectively. The mean age in this group was 73, and 69% were female (Table 1). A bilateral TAB was performed in 29%, and the mean total biopsy length was 2.5cm. Of these patients, 122 had positive biopsies (21%), with intimal hyperplasia reported in 100 (17%), giant cells in 83 (14%), and adventitial findings in 68 (12%). Positive biopsy weakly correlated with increased total length of biopsy in centimetres (OR 1.25 [1.06-1.47]) (Figure 1) and increased age in years (OR 1.02 [1.00-1.05]) but not laterality or sex (Table 2). There was a substantial difference between the two centres, which was incompletely accounted for once corrected for total biopsy length and calendar year of biopsy, suggesting either unmeasured differences in patient demographics or a difference in clinical practice. This change was preserved across analysis of different histopathological subtypes.Table 1.Patient characteristics by biopsy result.Negative(n = 455)Positive(n = 122)Total(n = 577)Age (years) Mean (SD)72 (± 11)75 (± 8.9)73 (± 10)Sex Female310 (68%)88 (72%)398 (69%) Male145 (32%)34 (28%)179 (31%)Maximum biopsy length (cm) Mean (SD)1.8 (± 0.86)2.0 (± 1.10)1.9 (± 0.92)Total biopsy length (cm) Mean (SD)2.4 (± 1.6)2.8 (± 2.1)2.5 (± 1.7)Mean biopsy length (cm) Mean (SD)1.7 (± 0.78)1.9 (± 0.97)1.7 (± 0.83)Laterality Bilateral130 (29%)39 (32%)169 (29%) Unilateral325 (71%)83 (68%)408 (71%)Table 2.Associations with positive TAB on multivariable logistic regression.Overall positive findingIntimal hyperplasiaGiant cellsAdventitial inflammationTotal biopsy length (cm)1.25(1.06-1.47)1.18(0.98-1.40)1.21(1.00-1.46)1.07(0.87-1.31)Unilateral (vs. bilateral)1.56(0.82-3.07)1.12(0.56-2.30)1.28(0.61-2.77)0.82(0.38-1.82)Age (years)1.02(1.00-1.05)1.02(1.00-1.04)1.03(1.00-1.05)1.00(0.98-1.03)Male (vs. female)0.83(0.52-1.29)0.63(0.37-1.05)0.59(0.32-0.92)0.75(0.41-1.31)Centre 2 (vs. centre 1)0.54(0.34-0.84)0.41(0.24-0.68)0.55(0.32-0.92)0.46(0.25-0.82)Figure 1.The effect of total biopsy length on result, stratified by laterality.Conclusion:Total biopsy length was weakly associated with a positive TAB result, but differences in results between referral centres independent of biopsy length suggest other selection factors may be important in determining TAB yield. Examination of differences in results between a greater number of referral centres would assist in determining the extent of this variability.Disclosure of Interests:None declared

Abstract
e20004 Background: IB is a Bruton’s tyrosine kinase inhibitor that showed superior progression-free survival compared with BR in CLL patients (pts) 65 years or older in a randomized phase 3 trial (Woyach et al, NEJM 2018). Pts receiving IB had higher rates of atrial fibrillation (AFIB) and hypertension (HTN); BR pts had higher rates of hematologic toxicity. Differences in treatment duration for BR (6 cycles) and IB (until progression) complicated adverse event (AE) comparisons. Here we use an exploratory approach to compare toxicity burden between arms and provide assessment of AFIB, HTN and infections (INF). Methods: AEs were reported for each of cycles 1-6 and then every 3 cycles until progression or nonprotocol CLL therapy. Only grade (gr) 3-4 AEs were reported thereafter until death. A simple global AE score was calculated for each pt by summing grades of all gr 1-4 AEs and dividing by the number of cycles over which AEs were submitted. Results: 537 pts began therapy (176 BR, 361 IB). 68% on BR completed all 6 cycles. At a median follow-up of 38 months, 64% remained on IB. Treatment discontinuation for AE occurred in 10% and 14% of BR and IB pts. Overall, median AE score was 1.8 (interquartile range (IQR) 0.9-3.3) and 3.8 (IQR 2.3-5.9) in BR and IB arms (p < 0.01). For cycles 1-6, median AE score was 6.2 (IQR 3.8-9.0) and 4.8 (IQR 3.0-7.2) in BR and IB arms (p < 0.01). In the IB arm, median AE score post 6 cycles decreased significantly to 3.4 (IQR 1.9-5.6) (p < 0.01). Gr 3 or higher cumulative rates of AFIB, HTN, and INF over time appear in the table. 100 pts (26/176 BR, 74/361 IB) had 137 severe INF (39% respiratory: 16 BR, 37 IB; 25% skin: 3 BR, 31 IB; 12% GU: 3 BR, 13 IB; 25% other: 12 BR, 22 IB). There were 7 gr 5 INF (3 BR, 4 IB), none confirmed fungal. Conclusions: There was no difference in treatment discontinuation rates for AE. Overall toxicity burden was significantly higher for IB, although IB toxicity burden decreased after 6 cycles. Toxicity burden was significantly higher in cycles 1-6 for pts receiving BR. Risk of severe AFIB, HTN, and INF is highest in the first year of IB. A simple AE score provides valuable information, especially when evaluating regimens of varying length.

Abstract
PURPOSE To describe the oncologic and obstetric outcomes of patients diagnosed with invasive cervical cancer (ICC) and in situ adenocarcinoma (ISA) during pregnancy or during the year following delivery. METHODS This retrospective observational study involved a cohort of 28 patients diagnosed with invasive cervical cancer (20 patients) or in situ adenocarcinoma (eight patients) during pregnancy or during the year following delivery who received expert opinion from physicians of the Cancer Associé à La Grossesse (CALG) network between 2005 and 2018. Descriptive results were expressed in median, range and interquartile range (IQR). RESULTS Between 2005 and 2018, 20 patients with ICC and eight with ISA received expert opinion from physicians of the CALG network. Both ICC and ISA were mostly diagnosed during pregnancy with a median term at diagnosis of 23.3 weeks of gestation (WG) for ICC and 7.3 WG for ISA. Overall, the median age at diagnosis for both ICC and ISA was 33 years. Most ICCs (n = 9) had FIGO stage ≥ IB2 and five underwent neoadjuvant chemotherapy at a median term of 22.5 WG. Seventeen patients with ICC underwent surgery. Three patients had medical termination of the pregnancy. Two patients experienced recurrence and three died. Median time of follow-up was 59.3 months (IQR 30.5-129.2). CONCLUSION Management of cervical cancer during pregnancy is challenging especially in terms of maternal outcomes with a relative poor prognosis requiring a multidisciplinary expert advice.

Abstract
Buparlisib is an orally available pan-Class I PI3K inhibitor, that is more potent than idelalisib in vitro. Its distinct toxicities include hyperglycemia, hypertension, and mood disturbance. IND216 is a single arm phase II trial of buparlisib in Relapsed/refractory (R/R) chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL). Fourteen patients were enrolled, 13 were evaluable for response and toxicity. Six of 13 patients had a partial response (46%) with a median duration of response of 15.5 months, all 11 patients with tumor assessment experienced tumor shrinkage. The most common adverse events (≥15%) were hyperglycemia, fatigue, anxiety, and gastrointestinal toxicities; all were < grade 3 except for fatigue. Three patients stopped therapy for alterations in mood. Lower levels of raptor were significantly associated with greater tumor shrinkage, suggesting that raptor could be a biomarker for response. This requires further validation in a larger CLL patient cohort. The clinical activity of buparlisib is comparable to other phosphatidylinositol-3-kinase inhibitors, with a different toxicity profile.Novelty and impactBuparlisib, an oral, pan PI3 kinase inhibitor, is associated with a 46% partial response rate among patients with relapse chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL). This is a similar clinical activity to other phosphatidylinositol-3-kinase inhibitors tested. However, buparlisib has a distinct toxicity profile, characterized by hyperglycemia, hypertension, and mood alteration. In agreement with our previous preclinical study, our results suggest that basal raptor expression in CLL correlates with clinical response to buparlisib.

Abstract
RESONATE-2 is a phase 3 study of first-line ibrutinib versus chlorambucil in chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL)/small lymphocytic lymphoma (SLL). Patients aged ≥65 years (n = 269) were randomized 1:1 to once-daily ibrutinib 420 mg continuously or chlorambucil 0.5-0.8 mg/kg for ≤12 cycles. With a median (range) follow-up of 60 months (0.1-66), progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) benefits for ibrutinib versus chlorambucil were sustained (PFS estimates at 5 years: 70% vs 12%; HR [95% CI]: 0.146 [0.098-0.218]; OS estimates at 5 years: 83% vs 68%; HR [95% CI]: 0.450 [0.266-0.761]). Ibrutinib benefit was also consistent in patients with high prognostic risk (TP53 mutation, 11q deletion, and/or unmutated IGHV) (PFS: HR [95% CI]: 0.083 [0.047-0.145]; OS: HR [95% CI]: 0.366 [0.181-0.736]). Investigator-assessed overall response rate was 92% with ibrutinib (complete response, 30%; 11% at primary analysis). Common grade ≥3 adverse events (AEs) included neutropenia (13%), pneumonia (12%), hypertension (8%), anemia (7%), and hyponatremia (6%); occurrence of most events as well as discontinuations due to AEs decreased over time. Fifty-eight percent of patients continue to receive ibrutinib. Single-agent ibrutinib demonstrated sustained PFS and OS benefit versus chlorambucil and increased depth of response over time.

Abstract
The inclusion of familial myeloid malignancies as a separate disease entity in the revised WHO classification has renewed efforts to improve the recognition and management of this group of at risk individuals. Here we report a cohort of 86 acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) families with 49 harboring germline variants in 16 previously defined loci (57%). Whole exome sequencing in a further 37 uncharacterized families (43%) allowed us to rationalize 65 new candidate loci, including genes mutated in rare hematological syndromes (ADA, GP6, IL17RA, PRF1 and SEC23B), reported in prior MDS/AML or inherited bone marrow failure series (DNAH9, NAPRT1 and SH2B3) or variants at novel loci (DHX34) that appear specific to inherited forms of myeloid malignancies. Altogether, our series of MDS/AML families offer novel insights into the etiology of myeloid malignancies and provide a framework to prioritize variants for inclusion into routine diagnostics and patient management.
