Our phase 1 graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) prevention trial of JAK2 inhibitor, pacritinib (PAC; recommended phase 2 dose: 100 mg orally twice a day on day 0 to +70) plus sirolimus and tacrolimus (SIR/TAC) demonstrated the regimen was safe and free of pan-JAK myelosuppression after allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (alloHCT). PAC inhibits interleukin 6 (IL-6) receptor activity and pathogenic T helper cell 1 (Th1)/Th17 differentiation in preclinical models and the phase 1 trial. Herein, we report on our completed phase 2 trial of PAC/SIR/TAC after 8/8 human leukocyte antigen matched alloHCT. This single-arm phase 2 trial (NCT02891603) was powered to determine if PAC/SIR/TAC suppressed percentage phosphorylated STAT3 (pSTAT3)+ CD4+ T cells at day +21 (primary end point: percentage pSTAT3+ CD4+ T cells ≤ 35%) and estimated grade II to IV acute GVHD by day +100. The impact of PAC/SIR/TAC on T-cell subsets, CD28 (pS6 and pH3ser10), and IL-2 receptor (pSTAT5) signal transduction was also evaluated. Eligible patients (n = 28) received alloHCT for hematologic malignancies or myeloproliferative neoplasms. Reduced or myeloablative intensity conditioning was permitted. PAC/SIR/TAC met the primary end point, reducing percentage pSTAT3+ CD4+ T cells to 9.62% at day +21. Th1/Th17 cells were decreased at day +21, increasing the ratio of regulatory T cells to Th1 and Th17 cells with PAC/SIR/TAC at recommended phase 2 dose PAC compared with dose level 1 PAC. The cumulative incidence of grade II to IV acute GVHD by day +100 with PAC/SIR/TAC was similar to historic SIR/TAC values (46% vs 43%). Although PAC/SIR/TAC suppressed pSTAT3 and Th1/Th17 cells, the regimen did not improve acute GVHD prevention.
我们开展了一项1期移植物抗宿主病(GVHD)预防试验,使用JAK2抑制剂帕西替尼(PAC;推荐的2期剂量:第0天至 +70天,每日口服100毫克,分两次服用)联合西罗莫司和他克莫司(SIR/TAC),结果表明该方案在异基因造血细胞移植(alloHCT)后是安全的,且未出现全JAK骨髓抑制现象。在临床前模型和1期试验中,PAC可抑制白细胞介素6(IL-6)受体活性以及致病性辅助性T细胞1(Th1)/辅助性T细胞17(Th17)的分化。在此,我们报告8/8人类白细胞抗原匹配的alloHCT后完成的PAC/SIR/TAC 2期试验情况。这项单臂2期试验(NCT02891603)旨在确定PAC/SIR/TAC在第 +21天是否能抑制磷酸化信号转导和转录激活因子3(pSTAT3)+ CD4+ T细胞的百分比(主要终点:pSTAT3+ CD4+ T细胞百分比≤35%),并在第 +100天评估II至IV级急性GVHD的发生率。还评估了PAC/SIR/TAC对T细胞亚群、CD28(pS6和pH3ser10)以及白细胞介素2受体(pSTAT5)信号转导的影响。符合条件的患者(n = 28)因血液系统恶性肿瘤或骨髓增殖性肿瘤接受alloHCT。允许采用降低强度或清髓性预处理。PAC/SIR/TAC达到了主要终点,在第 +21天将pSTAT3+ CD4+ T细胞百分比降至9.62%。在第 +21天,Th1/Th17细胞减少,与1期剂量的PAC相比,使用2期推荐剂量PAC的PAC/SIR/TAC增加了调节性T细胞与Th1和Th17细胞的比例。PAC/SIR/TAC在第 +100天的II至IV级急性GVHD累积发生率与SIR/TAC的历史值相似(46%对43%)。尽管PAC/SIR/TAC抑制了pSTAT3和Th1/Th17细胞,但该方案并未改善急性GVHD的预防效果。
