Abstract
Introduction: Belantamab mafodotin (BM) is a new anti-BCMA antibody-drug conjugate, recently approved for triple-class relapsed and refractory multiple myeloma (RRMM). We assessed real-world outcomes with BM in patients under the Spanish Expanded Access Program (EAP).
Methods: We conducted an observational, retrospective, multicenter study including RRMM patients who received ≥ 1 dose of BM (Nov 2019 to Jun 2021). The primary endpoint was overall response rate (ORR). Secondary endpoints were progression-free survival (PFS), overall survival (OS), and incidence of treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs).
Results: Thirty-three patients were included with a median of 70 years of age (range, 46-79 years). Median time from diagnosis was 71 months (range, 10-858 months). Median prior lines was 5 (range, 3-8 lines); 90% of patients were triple-/quad-/penta-refractory; 48% showed high-risk cytogenetics. Median BM doses was 3 (range 1-16 doses), with a median follow-up of 11 months (6-15 months). ORR was 42.2% (≥ VGPR, 18.2%). Median PFS was 3 months (95% CI 0.92-5.08) in the overall population, and 11 months (HR 0.26; 95% CI 0.10-0.68) for patients who achieved ≥ PR. PFS was not significantly different according to age, cytogenetic risk, and prior therapy lines. OS was 424 days (95% CI 107-740). Non-hematological TEAEs (57.6% of patients; 30.3% ≥ G3) included keratopathy (51.5%; 21.2% ≥ G3) and patient-reported vision-related symptoms (45.5%). Keratopathy was resolved in 70.6% of patients. G3 hematological TEAEs was 18.2%, thrombocytopenia (21.2%). Dose reductions due to TEAEs: 30.3%; delays: 36.4%. Treatment discontinuation causes: progression (54.5%), toxicity (non-ocular; 6%/ocular; 6% /ocular + non-ocular toxicity; 3%), death (6%), and patient's decision (3%).
Conclusions: BM showed relevant anti-myeloma activity in RRMM with a manageable safety profile. These results corroborate those observed in the BM pivotal trial.
Belantamab mafodotin (BM)是一种新的抗bcma抗体-药物偶联物,最近被批准用于三级复发和难治性多发性骨髓瘤(RRMM)。我们评估了西班牙扩大准入计划(EAP)下BM患者的实际结果。方法:我们进行了一项观察性、回顾性、多中心研究,包括接受≥1剂量BM的RRMM患者(2019年11月至2021年6月)。主要终点是总缓解率(ORR)。次要终点是无进展生存期(PFS)、总生存期(OS)和治疗不良事件(teae)的发生率。结果:纳入33例患者,中位年龄70岁(范围46-79岁)。中位诊断时间为71个月(范围10-858个月)。既往行数中位数为5行(范围3-8行);90%的患者为三难治性/四难治性/五难治性;48%为高危细胞遗传学。中位剂量为3剂(范围1-16剂),中位随访时间为11个月(6-15个月)。ORR为42.2%(≥VGPR, 18.2%)。中位PFS为3个月(95% CI 0.92-5.08), 11个月(HR 0.26;95% CI 0.10-0.68),达到≥PR的患者。PFS在年龄、细胞遗传风险和既往治疗方面没有显著差异。OS为424天(95% CI 107-740)。非血液学teae (57.6%);30.3%≥G3)包括角膜病变(51.5%;21.2%≥G3)和患者报告的视力相关症状(45.5%)。70.6%的患者角膜病变得到缓解。G3血液学teae为18.2%,血小板减少症为21.2%。teae引起的剂量减少:30.3%;延迟:36.4%。停药原因:进展(54.5%),毒性(非眼毒性;6% /眼;6% /眼+非眼毒性;3%)、死亡(6%)和患者决定(3%)。结论:BM在RRMM中显示出相关的抗骨髓瘤活性,并且具有可控的安全性。这些结果证实了BM关键试验中观察到的结果。

Aims and Scope
Oncology and Therapy is an international, peer reviewed, rapid-publication (peer review in 2 weeks, published 3–4 weeks from acceptance) journal dedicated to the publication of high-quality pre-clinical, clinical (all phases), observational, real-world, and health outcomes research around the discovery, development, and use of therapeutics and interventions (including devices) across all therapeutic areas. Studies relating to diagnostics and diagnosis, pharmacoeconomics, public health, epidemiology, quality of life, and patient care, management, and education are also encouraged.
The journal is of interest to a broad audience of healthcare professionals and publishes original research, reviews, communications and letters. The journal is read by a global audience and receives submissions from all over the world. Oncology and Therapy will consider all scientifically sound research be it positive, confirmatory or negative data. Submissions are welcomed whether they relate to an international and/or a country-specific audience, something that is crucially important when researchers are trying to target more specific patient populations. This inclusive approach allows the journal to assist in the dissemination of all scientifically and ethically sound research.
Rapid Publication
The journal’s rapid publication timelines aim for a peer review decision within 2 weeks of submission. If an article is accepted it will be published online 3-4 weeks from acceptance. These rapid timelines are achieved through the combination of a dedicated in-house editorial team, who closely manage article workflow, and an extensive Editorial and Advisory Board who assist with rapid peer review. This allows the journal to support the rapid dissemination of research, whilst still providing robust peer review. Combined with the journal’s open access model this allows for the rapid and efficient communication of the latest research and reviews, allowing the advancement of clinical therapies.
Personal Service
The journal’s dedicated in-house editorial team offer a personal “concierge service” meaning that authors will always have a personal point of contact able to update them on the status of their manuscript. The editorial team check all manuscripts to ensure that articles conform to the most recent COPE, GPP and ICMJE publishing guidelines. This supports the publication of ethically sound and transparent research. We also encourage pre-submission enquiries and are always happy to provide a confidential assessment of manuscripts.
Digital features and plain language summaries
Oncology and Therapy offers a range of additional features designed to increase the visibility, readership and educational value of the journal’s content. Each article is accompanied by key summary points, giving a time-efficient overview of the content to a wide readership. Articles may be accompanied by plain language summaries to assist readers who have some knowledge of, but not in-depth expertise in, the area to understand the scientific content and overall implications of the article. The journal also provides the option to include various types of digital features including animated abstracts, video abstracts, slide decks, audio slides, instructional videos, infographics, podcasts and animations. All additional features are peer reviewed to the same high standard as the article itself. If you consider that your paper would benefit from the inclusion of a digital feature, please let us know. Our editorial team are able to create high-quality slide decks and infographics in-house, and video abstracts through our partner Research Square, and would be happy to assist in any way we can. For further information about digital features, please contact the journal editor (see ‘Contact the Journal’ for email address), and see the ‘Guidelines for digital features and plain language summaries’ document under ‘Submission guidelines’.
Preprints
We encourage posting of preprints of primary research manuscripts on preprint servers, authors'' or institutional websites, and open communications between researchers whether on community preprint servers or preprint commenting platforms. Posting of preprints is not considered prior publication and will not jeopardize consideration in our journals.
Please see here for further information on preprint sharing: https://www.springer.com/gp/authors-editors/journal-author/journal-author-helpdesk/submission/1302#c16721550
Peer Review Process
Upon submission, manuscripts are assessed by the editorial team to ensure they fit within the aims and scope of the journal and are also checked for plagiarism. All suitable submissions are then subject to a comprehensive single-blind peer review. Reviewers are selected based on their relevant expertise and publication history in the subject area. The journal has an extensive pool of editorial and advisory board members who have been selected to assist with peer review based on the afore-mentioned criteria.
At least two extensive reviews are required to make the editorial decision, with the exception of some article types such as Commentaries, Editorials and Letters which are generally reviewed by one member of the Editorial Board. Where reviewer recommendations are conflicted, the editorial board will be contacted for further advice and a presiding decision.
Manuscripts are then either accepted, rejected or authors are required to make major or minor revisions (both reviewer comments and editorial comments may need to be addressed). Once a revised manuscript is re-submitted, it is assessed along with the responses to reviewer comments and if it has been adequately revised it will be accepted for publication. Accepted manuscripts are then copyedited and typeset by the production team before online publication. Appeals against decisions following peer review are considered on a case by case basis and should be sent to the journal editor.
