tisagenlecleucel 与常规治疗在复发/难治性滤泡性淋巴瘤患者中的疗效比较

The ELARA trial indicates tisagenlecleucel (tisa-cel) is an effective anti-CD19 chimeric antigen receptor T-cell therapy for relapsed or refractory follicular lymphoma (r/r FL). As ELARA is a single-arm trial, this study compares tisa-cel outcomes from the ELARA trial with usual care from a real-world cohort. ELARA enrolled 98 patients as of 29 March 2021 (median follow-up: 15 months from enrollment). Usual care data were obtained from ReCORD-FL, a global retrospective study of patients with r/r FL, who met similar eligibility criteria to ELARA. With a data cutoff date of 31 December 2020, 187 patients with ≥2 preceding treatment lines were included in the ReCORD-FL (median follow-up: 57 months from third-line) study.

An indirect treatment comparison was performed for 97 patients from the ELARA trial and 143 patients from the ReCORD-FL study with no missing data on baseline factors. The line of therapy for which outcomes were assessed was selected or matched between cohorts using propensity score modeling. After baseline factor adjustment via weighting by odds, complete response rate (CRR; 95% confidence interval) was 69. 1% (59. 8%-78.

3%) for tisa-cel vs. 37. 3% (26. 4%-48. 3%) for usual care; overall response rate was 85. 6% (78. 7%-92. 5%) vs. 63. 6% (52. 5%-74. 7%). Kaplan-Meier probability of being progression/event-free at 12 months was 70. 5% (61. 4%-79. 7%) for tisa-cel vs. 51. 9% (40. 6%-63. 3%) for usual care, with hazard ratio (HR)=0. 60 (0. 34-0. 86); 12-month overall survival was 96. 6% (92. 9%-100%) vs. 71. 7% (61. 2%-82. 2%), with HR=0. 2 (0. 02-0. 38).

In conclusion, tisa-cel was associated with a 1. 9-fold higher complete response rate and a 1. 4-fold higher rate of being progression or event free at 12 months vs usual care, as well as a death risk reduction of 80%. The findings provide additional evidence on the benefit of tisa-cel in patients with r/r FL after ≥2 treatment lines. This trial was registered at www. clinicaltrials. gov as NCT03568461.
