Article Title: | Phase I study of bendamustine, rituximab, ibrutinib, and venetoclax in relapsed, refractory mantle cell lymphoma |
Abstract: | This dose-finding study evaluated safety of venetoclax plus Bendamustine-Rituximab-Ibrutinib in relapsed/refractory MCL. Six 28-day cycles were administered in a 3 + 3 dose-escalation design. Dose level 1 (DL1) included Bendamustine 90 mg/m2 on day 1-2, Rituximab 375 mg/m2 on day 1, and Ibrutinib 560 mg daily. Venetoclax was dosed with ramp-up and at 400 mg starting in Cycle 2 for 5 days. The most common adverse events were thrombocytopenia (80%), constipation (60%), and fatigue (60%). Rare hematologic grade 3-4 AEs, 1 dose-limiting toxicity at DL1 (prolonged grade 3 thrombocytopenia), and delayed hematologic toxicity were observed. DL-1 with Bendamustine dose-reduced to 70 mg/m2 (n = 3) revealed no significant toxicity. The overall and complete response rates were both 80% (8/10). This study underscored that venetoclax combined with chemoimmunotherapy is complicated by hematologic toxicity, limiting future development. Although a maximum tolerated dose was not formally established given early study closure, this study demonstrated preliminary tolerability and efficacy of Bendamustine-Rituximab-Ibrutinib-Venetoclax at DL-1. © 2023 Informa UK Limited, trading as Taylor & Francis Group. |
