Integration of Novel Therapy

Into Myeloma Management Bortezomib, Lenalidomide, Thalidomide, Doxil, Carfilzomib, Pomalidamide

Target MM in the BM microenvironment to overcome conventional drug resistance in vitro and in vivo

Effective in relapsed/refractory, relapsed,induction, consolidation, and maintenance therapy

Eight FDA approvals and median survival prolonged from 3-4 to 6-7 years, with additional prolongation from maintenance

New approaches needed to treat and ultimately prevent relapse

• Lenalidomide induces caspase 8 mediated apoptosis of MM cells in BM in vitro and in vivo; Dex (caspase 9) enhances response

• Synergistic MM cell toxicity of lenalidomide (caspase 8) with Bortezomib (caspase 9>8) in vitro and in vivo (dual apoptotic signaling)

• Phase I-II trials show that majority (58%) of patients refractory to either agent alone respond to the combination

• Phase I-II trials show 100% response with 74% CR/VGPR and 52% CR/nCR when used as initial therapy, including molecular responses.

• Response to CRd therapy was high, with an ORR of 78%

– 41% VGPR or better

• CRd well-tolerated with durable responses

• ASPIRE phase 3 open-label, international, multicenter trial comparing CRd to Rd in R/R MM fully enrolled.

Phase II Study of Infusional Carfilzomib in Patients with Relapsed or Refractory MM

• CFZ dose of 20/56 mg/m2 administered as a 30-minute IV infusion resulted in high response rates in our BTZ treated/refractory population.

• Response rates were comparable to those seen in PX-171-0071

• CFZ dose of 20/56 mg/m2 was associated with more frequent cardiac and pulmonary toxicities, particularly HTN and pulmonary edema/CHF.

– Possible contribution from “supportive” measures?

• CFZ dose of 20/56 mg/m2 continues to be explored in ongoing Phase II/III studies. Lendvai et al, ASH 2012 Abstr 947

Pomalidomide With Low-Dose Dexamethasone Relapsed and Refractory Multiple Myeloma

• POM was effective in heavily pretreated patients who had already received LEN and bortezomib and who progressed on their last line of therapy

• The combination of POM with LoDEX improves the ORR due to synergy between immunomodulatory agents and glucocorticoids

– POM + LoDEX, 34%; POM alone, 15%

• Response was durable with POM regardless of the addition of LoDEX

– POM + LoDEX, 8.3 months ; POM alone, 8.8 months

• POM is generally well tolerated, with low rates of discontinuations due to AEs

• Age had no impact on ORR, DoR, or safety

Pomalidomide Plus Low-Dose Dexamethasone (Pom/Dex) in Relapsed Myeloma (345 patients)

• Pom/Dex has high response rates even in heavily pretreated relapsed myeloma

• Pom/Dex is well tolerated

• Toxicity and efficacy are similar between the 2mg and 4mg dose levels

• The strongest predictors of response include the number and type of prior regimens.

• The strongest predictors of TTP and survival include the number and type of prior regimens, LDH, and B2M.

A Phase III Clinical Trial of Pomalidomide with Low-dose Dex vs. High-dose Dex in

Relapsed/Refractory MM• POM + LoDEX significantly improved PFS and OS

– Median PFS: 3.6 vs 1.8 months

• HR = 0.45; P < .001

– Median OS: not reached vs 7.8 months

• HR = 0.53; P < .001

• Equal benefit in pts refractory to both LEN and BORT

• POM + LoDEX was generally well tolerated

• POM + LoDEX should be considered as a new treatment option for these pts

MM-005: A Phase 1 Trial of Pomalidomide, Bortezomib, and Low-dose Dexamethasone in

Relapsed or Relapsed/Refractory MM

• POM + BORT + LoDEX (PVD) well tolerated– cohort 5 as the MTD/MPD

• POM 4 mg; BORT 1.3 mg/m2; DEX 10/20 mg

• Responses in RR MM across all cohorts– ORR: 73%, VGPR: 27%, SD: 27% – Responses were rapid; majority are ongoing– Efficacy even with adverse cytogenetics

• Phase III Trial Pom Bort Dex vs Bort Dex for full approval

Carfilzomib Pomalidomide Dexamethasone (Car-Pom-d) in Relapsed/Refractory MM

• MTD was Carfilzomib 20/27 mg/m2, Pomalidomide 4 mg, and dexamethasone 40 mg

• There are limited G 3 and 4 non hematologic toxicities; the regimen was tolerated well with no unexpected toxicity

• The combination of Car-Pom–d is highly active in this heavily pretreated, refractory patient population

• The combination has encouraging preserved response rate and survival independent of FISH/cytogenetic risk status

≥ VGPR 13% ≥ ORR 50% ≥ CBR 67% PFS (median) 7.4 months OS 90% @ 1 year

1. Development of immune therapies

2. Development of novel agents targeting the MM cell in the BM microenvironment

3. Development of rationally-based combination therapies

4. Utilization of genomics for improved classification and personalized therapy

Myeloma will be a chronic illness, with sustained CR in a significant fraction of patients.

Phase 2 Elotuzumab Lenalidomide Low-dose Dex in Relapsed/ Refractory MM

• Elotuzumab plus lenalidomide and low-dose dexamethasone has a high ORR in relapsed and relapsed/refractory MM

– 82% for all pts (91% in pts who had received only 1 prior therapy)

– 92% for pts treated with elotuzumab 10 mg/kg

Median PFS was 33 mos for patients receiving elotuzumab 10 mg/kg

• The combination was generally well tolerated

– Most common Grade 3/4 treatment-emergent AEs were neutropenia (16%), thrombocytopenia (16%), and lymphopenia (16%)

– Premedication regimen decreased incidence and mitigated severity of infusion reactions*

Combination Immunotherapy Posttransplant

• Anti PD-1 Ab administration in the early post-autologous transplant period is well tolerated

• Anti-PD1 results in the expansion of tumor reactive lymphocytes in the post-transplant period that persist at 6 months

• This provides a promising platform for combination with a tumor vaccine

• We have inititated enrollment into cohort 2, in which patients receive an autologous DC/myeloma fusion vaccine 1 week prior to each dose of Anti-PD-1Ab

VANTAGE 088: An International, Multicenter, Randomized, Double-Blind Study of Vorinostat

or Placebo with Bortezomib in Relapsed MM

• The combination of vorinostat + bortezomib is active in patients with relapsed and refractory MM– Significant improvement in response rate– ORR 54% vs 41% (P<0.0001); CBR 71% vs 53% (P<0.0001)

• PFS and TTP were prolonged in the combination arm compared with bortezomib alonePFS hazard ratio reduction of 23% (P=0.01); 7.63 months (6.9–8.4)

versus 6.83 months (5.7–7.7)

• Diarrhea, fatigue, and thrombocytopenia limited tolerability

Bench to Bedside Translation of HDAC 6 Selective Inhibitor ACY 1215

• Orally bioavailable, highly potent, selective • inhibitor of HDAC 6 synthesized in fall 2009

• Synergistic MM cytotoxicity with Bortezomib • in vitro and in vivo

• Favorable PK/PD, toxicity profile

•Phase Ia/Ib/II clinical trials of ACY1215, alone and with Bortezomib and with lenalidomide/dexamethasone, ongoing; trials with pomalidomide and carfilzomib this year.

1. Lenalidomide dexamethasone, bortezomib, and pegylated doxorubicin are approved regimens for relapsed MM.

2. Pomalidomide/dex and carfilzomib are newly FDA approved options.

3. There are many promising protocols of novel immune and targeted agents which show promise, alone and in combination.

4. Genomic analyses are both defining the basis for evolution underlying relapse and identifying new targets.
