Abstract
Background In April 2023, the antisense oligonucleotide tofersen was approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for treatment of SOD1-amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), after a decrease of neurofilament light chain (NfL) levels had been demonstrated. Methods Between 03/2022 and 04/2023, 24 patients with SOD1-ALS from ten German ALS reference centers were followed-up until the cut-off date for ALS functional rating scale revised (ALSFRS-R), progression rate (loss of ALSFRS-R/month), NfL, phosphorylated neurofilament heavy chain (pNfH) in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF), and adverse events. Findings During the observation period, median ALSFRS-R decreased from 38.0 (IQR 32.0-42.0) to 35.0 (IQR 29.0-42.0), corresponding to a median progression rate of 0.11 (IQR -0.09 to 0.32) points of ALSFRS-R lost per month. Median serum NfL declined from 78.0 pg/ml (IQR 37.0-147.0 pg/ml; n = 23) to 36.0 pg/ml (IQR 22.0-65.0 pg/ml; n = 23; p = 0.02), median pNfH in CSF from 2226 pg/ml (IQR 1061-6138 pg/ml; n = 18) to 1151 pg/ml (IQR 521-2360 pg/ml; n = 18; p = 0.02). In the CSF, we detected a pleocytosis in 73% of patients (11 of 15) and an intrathecal immunoglobulin synthesis (IgG, IgM, or IgA) in 9 out of 10 patients. Two drug-related serious adverse events were reported. Interpretation Consistent with the VALOR study and its Open Label Extension (OLE), our results confirm a reduction of NfL serum levels, and moreover show a reduction of pNfH in CSF. The therapy was safe, as no persistent symptoms were observed. Pleocytosis and Ig synthesis in CSF with clinical symptoms related to myeloradiculitis in two patients, indicate the potential of an autoimmune reaction. Funding No funding was received towards this study.

Abstract
The reform of derogatory access authorisations (DAs) on 1st July 2021 has distorted the routine of the hospital pharmacists dealing with innovative medicines that are waiting for marketing authorization or approval. There are two distinct categories of DAs: Compassionate Access Authorisations (CAAs) are granted by the French National Agency for the Safety of Medicines (ANSM) while Early Access Authorisations (EAPs) are granted at the request of pharmaceutical companies by the French National Authority for Health (HAS). All AAPs and a majority of the AACs are supported by a Protocol for Therapeutic Use and Data Collection (PTU-DC). The aim of this study is to assess the impact of the reform on pharmacy process one year following its implementation, and to identify the risks related to the new circuits. The working group, composed of three pharmacists carried out an initial assessment of the effects first measured the impact of the reform on medicine processes in DAs. They performed a comparison of the changes in their management methods: 3 months prior to the reform (M0), and 3 (M3) and 12 months (M12) post-reform. Risks analysis was conducted using the Failure Modes, Effects and Criticality Analysis (FMEA) method. The analysis was limited to the process steps specific related to DAs drugs were analyzed. The critical severity of the risk situations identified was rated. A critical hierarchy matrix was used to establish priority actions. The priority actions to be taken were determined using the critical hierarchy matrix. Over the span of one year, the number of DAs in our establishment showed a 31.7% increase, from 41 at M0 to 54 at M12. At M0, the proportion of drugs needed inclusion via a drug-specific digital platform, specific to each drug, stood at 27% (11/41) of drugs at M0 while at M12, it rose to 52% (28/54). The percentage of PTU-DCs therefore increased by a factor of 1.7, rising from 29% (12/41) at M0 to 47% (21/45) at M3 and 60% (32/54) at M12. For orders, which are always nominative, approval depends on both the presence of the PTU-DC tracking sheet being present in 12% of PAAs, and the inclusion number in 26% of PAAs. The risk analysis shows 49 failure modes leading to risk situations. Among the failure modes, 36 have a consequence of acceptable or tolerable criticality under control, whilst 13 are deemed of unacceptable criticality. A suitable control method exists has been identifies for 5 of them. Finally, the ranking evaluation of criticalities has highlighted 4 situations which require immediate action as a priority: delivery times, obtaining completed tracking sheets and ordering procedures. The aim of the DAs reform is to simplify access to innovative medicines. However, the reform has significant and damaging repercussions on pharmaceutical activities. Corrective measures need to be taken in conjunction with all parties involved in the circuits including laboratories and service providers (CROs), authorities and healthcare professionals.

Abstract
BACKGROUND In multiple myeloma (MM), improving our understanding of routine clinical practice and the effectiveness of agents outside of clinical trials is important. TOURMALINE-MM1 data resulted in approval of ixazomib for MM patients who have received ≥ 1 prior therapy. PATIENTS AND METHODS UVEA-IXA comprised a retrospective chart review in the early access program, and a prospective 1-year follow-up period. Eligible patients had had a biochemical and/or symptomatic relapse after 1-3 prior lines of therapy; no anti-MM therapy for > 3 cycles at the start of ixazomib therapy; and an Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance score of 0-2. Lenalidomide- or proteasome inhibitor (PI)-refractory patients were ineligible. Primary endpoints were response and progression-free survival (PFS). RESULTS Of 357 enrolled patients, 309 were evaluable; most patients received ixazomib alongside lenalidomide (98%) and dexamethasone (97%); 61% had received 2-3 prior lines of therapy. Median PFS was 15.6 months (95% confidence interval [CI]: 12.0-20.6) in all evaluable patients, and 19.6 (95% CI: 12.1-27.0) and 13.9 (95% CI: 10.1-18.1) months in patients who received 1 and ≥ 2 prior lines of therapy, respectively. The overall response rate was 67% in all evaluable patients, and 72% and 63%, respectively, in patients who received 1 and ≥ 2 prior lines of therapy. Median overall survival was 35.5 months. The ixazomib safety profile was consistent with previous reports. CONCLUSION This study supports ixazomib-based therapy as an effective and tolerable treatment in the real-world. Outcomes were favorable in patients with 1 or ≥ 2 prior lines of therapy who were not lenalidomide- or PI-refractory.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION In October 2020, the French Health Authority granted early access outside of the clinical trial setting for dostarlimab, a programmed death-1 inhibitor. Dostarlimab was approved by the European Medicines Agency (in April 2021) as monotherapy for patients with post-platinum mismatch repair deficient/microsatellite instability-high advanced/recurrent endometrial cancer, based on the results of the GARNET trial (NCT02715284). METHODS This was a real-world descriptive analysis of patients granted cohort temporary authorization of use to receive dostarlimab between November 2020 and June 2021. Physicians could complete follow-up forms at each treatment cycle to provide clinical information, safety, and efficacy data. Safety and disease progression data were also captured through pharmacovigilance reports. RESULTS Of 95 temporary authorization of use requests made by 80 oncologists in 59 French hospitals, 87 patients were eligible, and 80 received≥1 dose of dostarlimab. Based on treatment response assessments received (n=43), the mean (standard deviation) time from treatment initiation to response evaluation was 11 (6) weeks. The disease control rate (complete plus partial responses plus stable disease rates) was 56% (n=24/43), and the overall response rate was 35% (n=15/43); both consistent with those reported in the GARNET trial. No new safety signals were reported. DISCUSSION The enrolment of 80 patients in an 8-month period highlights the need for access to novel treatment regimens in France for these patients post-platinum. Prospective randomized studies are ongoing to assess the efficacy and safety of dostarlimab and other checkpoint inhibitors as first-line treatment in patients with endometrial cancer.

Abstract
PURPOSE Tumor genomic profiling and PD-L1 testing mean lung cancer management can be tackled through a personalized approach. Targeted therapies and immunotherapy are necessary to improve survival and preserve the patients' quality of life. Early access to innovation before marketing authorization (MA) is possible in France through clinical trials and an early-access program called a Temporary Authorization for Use (ATU), which is a unique regulatory system in Europe. This study aims to assess the impact of early access to innovation through clinical trials and ATUs in thoracic oncology. METHODS Data from clinical trials between 2018 and 2021 and ATUs between 2005 and 2019 were collected internally and assessed for drugs in thoracic oncology, with specific focus on 2 ATUs, respectively, atezolizumab and durvalumab. RESULTS From 2018 to 2021, the National Agency for the Safety of Medicines and Health Products authorized 145 clinical trials in lung cancer. Between 2005 and 2019, 19 drugs obtained an EU MA or an MA extension for a therapeutic indication in lung cancer. During this period, 11 of these drugs were granted an ATU, corresponding to 6851 patients treated. Of this total number of patients, data were collected for 33.1% and 71.2%, who received durvalumab and atezolizumab, respectively. Real-life efficacy data were consistent with the clinical trial data. CONCLUSION Over the past 15 years, clinical trials and the French early access program have allowed considerable early access to therapeutic innovation in real life for patients, especially in thoracic oncology.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Brigatinib is a next-generation ALK inhibitor initially developed in ALK-positive NSCLC pretreated with crizotinib. MATERIALS AND METHODS This retrospective multicentric study analyzed ALK-positive advanced NSCLC patients pretreated with at least one tyrosine-kinase inhibitor, including crizotinib, and enrolled in the brigatinib French early access program. The primary endpoint was investigator-assessed progression-free survival (PFS). RESULTS 104 patients were included (mean age, 56.6 years; never smokers, 61.5%; adenocarcinoma, 98.1%). Patients had received a median of 3 previous treatment lines, including at least 2 ALK inhibitors (mainly crizotinib then ceritinib). At brigatinib initiation, 59.1% had performance status 0-1, 51.9% had ≥ 3 metastatic sites, 74.5% had central nervous system metastases (CNS) and 8.8% had carcinomatous meningitis. Median duration of brigatinib treatment was 6.7 (95% CI, 0.06-20.7) months. Median PFS was 6.6 (4.8-9.9) months for the entire population. For patients who received 2, 3-4 and >4 lines of treatment before brigatinib, PFS was 4.3 (2.5-8.9), 10.4 (5.9-13.9) and 3.8 (0.8-7.4) months, respectively. In the 91 evaluable patients, disease control rate was 78.2%. From brigatinib start, median overall survival was 17.2 (11.0-not reached) months. Among the 68 patients with progressive disease after brigatinib, CNS was involved in 29.4% of cases. Median OS from the diagnosis of NSCLC was 75.3 (38.2-174.6) months. CONCLUSION These real-world results confirm the efficacy of brigatinib in a cohort of patients heavily pretreated for ALK-positive advanced NSCLC.

Abstract
Objectives The efficacy of osimertinib in pretreated patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) harboring EGFR T790 M resistance mutation was demonstrated in clinical trials. However, data on efficacy of osimertinib in real world remain rare. Materials and methods This retrospective multicentric study analyzed T790M-positive advanced NSCLC patients enrolled in French early access program for osimertinib. Patients were pretreated with first- or second-generation EGFR tyrosine-kinase inhibitor and for a majority with chemotherapy. Primary endpoints were progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) from osimertinib initiation. Results 205 patients (mean age, 69.5 years; female, 68.8%; adenocarcinoma, 97.5%, never-smokers, 71.5%) were analyzed. Osimertinib was used in second and third line in 18.0% and 82.0% of patients, respectively. Median PFS was 12.4 (95% CI, 10.1-15.1) months. In patients with and without cerebral metastasis, PFS was 9.7 (7.7-13.5) and 15.1 (12.0-17.1) months (p = 0.21), respectively. PFS in second and third line or more was 12.6 (6.7-17.5) and 12.4 (9.7-15.3) months, respectively. Median PFS in patients with EGFR exon 19 deletion and exon 21 mutation was 13.5 (10.1-16.0) and 9.7 (7.4-13.2) months, respectively (p = 0.049). Median OS since osimertinib initiation was 20.5 (16.9-24.3) months: 23.1 (18.6-27.8) and 18.0 (12.2-22.2) months in patients without and with cerebral metastasis (p = 0.11); 17.5 (11.6-27.8) and 21.7 (17.3-24.3) months as second or third line of treatment or more (p = 0.46), respectively. Median OS in patients with EGFR exon 19 deletion and exon 21 mutation was 23.1 (18.6-25.7) and 15.3 (11.6-21.7) months, respectively (p = 0.03). Osimertinib dosage was modified in 8.0% of patients and definitively discontinued for adverse events in 5.9%. Fifty patients benefited from rebiopsy (persistence of T790 M mutation, 44.7%; C797S mutation, 21.1%; cMET amplification, 8.0%). Conclusion In pretreated patients with T790M-mutated advanced NSCLC, the efficacy of osimertinib appears similar in real-world setting to that of clinical trials.
