Tirabrutinib, a second-generation inhibitor of Bruton's tyrosine kinase, was approved in March 2020 for the treatment of relapsed or refractory primary central nervous system lymphoma (r/r PCNSL) based on phase I/II studies in Japan. We previously reported the overall response rate and safety profile. We describe Karnofsky Performance Status (KPS) and the quality of life (QoL) in patients with r/r PCNSL receiving tirabrutinib based on more than 1-year follow-up data.
Patients with r/r PCNSL, age ≥20 years, and KPS ≥70 were treated with tirabrutinib once daily at a dose of 320, 480, or 480 mg under fasted conditions. QoL was assessed using questionnaires issued by the European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer (EORTC), namely EORTC QLQ-C30, EORTC QLQ-BN20, and EuroQol 5 dimensions 3-level (EQ-5D-3L) along with KPS.
Forty-four patients (mean age, 60 years [range 29-86]) were enrolled. The median follow-up period was 14.9 months (range, 1.4-27.7). The median KPS of the patients at baseline was 80.0 (range, 70-100), and this remained constant during the treatment. The global health status/QoL in the QLQ-C30 showed significant improvements from baseline through cycles 3-17 and remained relatively constant thereafter until cycle 23. Improvements were also seen in emotional functioning and constipation in the QLQ-C30 segments. Other items of QLQ-C30 and QLQ-BN20, EQ-5D visual analog scales, and EQ-5D index were maintained during the treatment.
Tirabrutinib generally maintains KPS and QoL scores with some improvements in specific QoL items in patients with r/r PCNSL.
替拉鲁替尼是一种第二代布鲁顿酪氨酸激酶抑制剂,基于在日本开展的I/II期研究,于2020年3月获批用于治疗复发或难治性原发性中枢神经系统淋巴瘤(r/r PCNSL)。我们之前报告了其总缓解率和安全性。基于超过1年的随访数据,我们描述了接受替拉鲁替尼治疗的r/r PCNSL患者的卡氏功能状态评分(KPS)和生活质量(QoL)。
年龄≥20岁且KPS≥70的r/r PCNSL患者,在禁食条件下接受替拉鲁替尼治疗,每日一次,剂量为320、480或480 mg。使用欧洲癌症研究与治疗组织(EORTC)发布的问卷评估生活质量,即EORTC QLQ-C30、EORTC QLQ-BN20和欧洲五维健康量表3级(EQ-5D-3L),同时评估KPS。
共纳入44例患者(平均年龄60岁[范围29 - 86岁])。中位随访期为14.9个月(范围1.4 - 27.7个月)。患者基线时的中位KPS为80.0(范围70 - 100),治疗期间保持稳定。QLQ-C30中的总体健康状况/生活质量从基线到第3 - 17周期有显著改善,此后直到第23周期保持相对稳定。QLQ-C30部分的情绪功能和便秘也有改善。治疗期间,QLQ-C30和QLQ-BN20的其他项目、EQ-5D视觉模拟量表和EQ-5D指数保持稳定。
替拉鲁替尼通常能维持r/r PCNSL患者的KPS和QoL评分,且特定QoL项目有一定改善。
