Key clinical point: Ibrutinib maintenance (I-M; dose 560 mg daily) for 4 years is effective in patients with treatment-naive mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) who are responsive to frontline chemo-immunotherapy with significant but manageable toxicities.
Major finding: The 3-year progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) rates were 94% and 97%, whereas the 5-year PFS and OS rates were 89% and 91%, respectively. In patients with prior autologous stem cell transplantation (autoSCT), the 5-year PFS and OS rates were 100% each. The most common treatment-related adverse event was infection (86%; grades 1-2), and the most common grade 3-4 toxicities were hematologic.
Study details: This multicenter phase 2 study included patients with treatment-naive MCL who achieved a complete or partial response to frontline intensive induction chemo-immunotherapy with or without autoSCT and received 560 mg I-M daily for 4 years.
Disclosures: This study was supported by Pharmacyclics and Janssen. R Karmali and B Pro declared serving as consultants, speakers, or advisory board members for or receiving research funding or honoraria from various sources.
