Welcome to OncLive On Air®! I'm your host today, Ashling Wahner. OncLive On Air is a podcast from OncLive®, which provides oncology professionals with the resources and information they need to provide the best patient care. In both digital and print formats, OncLive covers every angle of oncology practice, from new technology to treatment advances to important regulatory decisions. In today's episode, supported by AbbVie, we had the pleasure of speaking with Jennifer Crombie, MD, about the FDA approval of epcoritamab-bysp (Epkinly) for patients with relapsed/refractory follicular lymphoma. Dr Crombie is a physician at Dana-Farber Cancer Institute and an assistant professor of medicine at Harvard Medical School in Boston, Massachusetts. On June 26, 2024, the FDA granted accelerated approval to epcoritamab for the treatment of adult patients with relapsed/refractory follicular lymphoma who have received at least 2 prior lines of systemic therapy. This regulatory decision was supported by findings form the phase 1/2 EPCORE NHL-1 trial (NCT03625037), in which the agent yielded an overall response rate of 82% (95% CI, 74.1%-88.2%) in the primary efficacy cohort (n = 127), including a complete response rate of 60% (95% CI, 50.8%-68.4%). In our exclusive interview, Dr Crombie discussed the significance of this approval, key findings from the pivotal EPCORE NHL-1 trial, and where the future of the FL treatment paradigm is headed. ___ That's all we have for today!

Tycel Phillips, MD, spoke with CancerNetwork® ahead of the FDA's accelerated approval of epcoritamab-bysp (Epkinly) for patients with relapsed/refractory follicular lymphoma to discuss how this agent may impact the treatment paradigm. Phillips, an associate professor in the Division of Lymphoma and Department of Hematology & Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation at City of Hope in Duarte, California, reviewed data from the phase 1/2 EPCORE NHL-1 trial (NCT03625037), which ultimately supported the approval of epcoritamab in the aforementioned population. Topline results reported at the time of the agent's approval showed an overall response rate (ORR) of 82% (95% CI, 74.1%-88.2%), with 60% of patients experiencing a complete response. Additionally, the median duration of response was not reached (NR; 95% CI, 13.7-NR). Beyond the supporting data, Phillips highlighted how this approval may increase availability of treatment options for patients with follicular lymphoma, especially those who lack access to alternative therapies. He stated that readily available off-the-shelf bispecific antibodies like epcoritamab may bridge the gap for patients who are unable to access CAR T-cell therapies or travel to a major academic center for treatment. Phillips also detailed strategies for mitigating some of the common toxicities that may occur following treatment with epcoritamab, which include cytokine release syndrome and immune effector cell-associated neurotoxicity syndrome. Although Phillips said that epcoritamab is usable in the third-line setting, he noted that bispecific antibodies like it “have a lot of potential for upward mobility,” as he anticipates further assessment of these treatments in the first or second line. “As community oncologists get more and more comfortable with these drugs and have the structure to set up to safely administer [them] for the first month when most of the complications happen, more and more patients will be able to be treated, which will be a great benefit based on what we've seen in early response rates for these drugs,” Phillips said regarding the utility of bispecific antibodies like epcoritamab. “There'll be a big benefit for the patient population in the long term as more community settings implement these drugs into their clinical practice.” Reference FDA grants accelerated approval to epcoritamab-bysp for relapsed or refractory follicular lymphoma.

This approval converts the May 2021 accelerated approval of amivantamab to full approval. - The FDA approved the AGENT Drug-Coated Balloon (DCB) for treating in-stent restenosis in coronary artery disease patients, introducing the first drug-coated coronary balloon in the US. It uses a paclitaxel-coated catheter to deliver medication directly to the vessel wall, offering an alternative to traditional treatments and aiming to reduce recurrence risks. The approval was based on the AGENT IDE trial, demonstrating its effectiveness over uncoated balloon angioplasty in reducing lesion failure, with no significant adverse events reported. - The FDA approved an oral suspension form of ibrutinib (Imbruvica) for several conditions, including chronic lymphocytic leukemia and chronic graft versus host disease, addressing the needs of patients who have difficulty swallowing pills. This is the first oral suspension formulation of a Bruton's tyrosine kinase inhibitor, originally approved in 2013 for mantle cell lymphoma. The approval, granted to Johnson & Johnson and Pharmacyclics, aims to simplify treatment for patients challenged with pill-swallowing. - Epcoritamab-bysp (Epkinly) received FDA approval for treating adult patients with relapsed or refractory follicular lymphoma after at least two prior therapies, marking it as the first subcutaneously administered bispecific antibody for this condition. It works by targeting both CD3 on T cells and CD20 on B cells to induce cell death. Based on the EPCORE NHL-1 trial results, this approval extends its use beyond diffuse large B-cell lymphoma, with AbbVie and Genmab sharing commercial responsibilities. - The FDA granted priority review to the New Drug Application for govorestat (AT-007), a treatment for classic galactosemia, potentially the first of its kind if approved. Govorestat, an aldose reductase inhibitor, aims to reduce harmful galactitol levels, based on phase 3 study results among pediatric patients. Applied Therapeutics announced a PDUFA target action date of August 28, 2024, highlighting the urgent need for treatments in this area. - Obeticholic acid (Ocaliva) received FDA consideration for an expanded application to treat primary biliary cholangitis, building on its 2016 accelerated approval. It's designed for patients with or without cirrhosis, showing promise in post-marketing studies to confirm its clinical benefits. The review includes data from various studies and real-world evidence, with a PDUFA target date of October 15, 2024, aiming to address the needs of this autoimmune liver disease population. - The FDA approved Biktarvy for HIV patients with suppressed viral loads who exhibit M184V/I resistance, offering a new treatment option for those with specific resistance mutations. Biktarvy combines three therapies in a single tablet, based on successful 48-week study data. Manufactured by Gilead Sciences, this approval expands treatment possibilities for patients facing resistance challenges. - The FDA rejected Minerva Neurosciences' New Drug Application for roluperidone as a treatment for schizophrenia's negative symptoms, citing insufficient evidence from a single study and lack of comprehensive data. Despite showing promise in targeting specific brain receptors, the FDA's concerns highlight the need for more extensive research and data to confirm its effectiveness and safety. Minerva plans to engage with the FDA to address these issues.

Sue Doty from Michigan thought she had a hip problem when she went to stand up one day and collapsed, but the doctors diagnosed her with follicular lymphoma—a type of blood cancer that's not usually curable. She then underwent 6 rounds of chemo but quit when the cancer had spread to her lungs and bones and made her unbearably sick. Instead, she began taking cannabis oil, which her husband made for her. She is now celebrating being 11 years cancer free.
