Abstract
Introduction: Treatment for relapsed/refractory AL amyloidosis (AL) is an unmet need. The safety and efficacy of belantamab mafodotin (BLM) in multiple myeloma are known, whereas in AL data are limited.
Methods: We report a multi-center cohort of AL patients receiving BLM, and review all previous data on BLM therapy in AL.
Results: Twelve patients with a median of 3 (range 2-9) prior lines of therapy were included. The overall hematological response rate (ORR) was 75% (9/12), including 5 complete responses. Six of the 10 evaluable patients had organ responses. The median event-free survivals/overall survivals were 22.3 and 28.8 months, respectively. Grade 3 toxicities were mostly infections and keratopathy, occurring in 7/12 (58%). Hematological toxicities were rare. No grade 4/5 toxicities occurred. The review of the previous series reveals BLM provides an ORR of 60-83% with similar rates of corneal toxicity.
Conclusion: BLM, being an off-the-shelf therapy, with acceptable toxicity even in frail patients, may be a valuable option in AL, with a high ORR, and a signal for durable responses and high-quality organ responses.
期刊介绍:
''Acta Haematologica'' is a well-established and internationally recognized clinically-oriented journal featuring balanced, wide-ranging coverage of current hematology research. A wealth of information on such problems as anemia, leukemia, lymphoma, multiple myeloma, hereditary disorders, blood coagulation, growth factors, hematopoiesis and differentiation is contained in first-rate basic and clinical papers some of which are accompanied by editorial comments by eminent experts. These are supplemented by short state-of-the-art communications, reviews and correspondence as well as occasional special issues devoted to ‘hot topics’ in hematology. These will keep the practicing hematologist well informed of the new developments in the field.
