ZUMA-5

Axicabtagene ciloleucel in relapsed or refractory indolent non-Hodgkin lymphoma (ZUMA-5): a single-arm, multicentre, phase 2 trial

Phase 2N = 153NCT03105336

Population
Relapsed or refractory indolent non-Hodgkin lymphoma (follicular or marginal zone) after two or more lines of therapy. Primary analysis population: 104 eligible patients (84 follicular, 20 marginal zone). Three-year report: 127 follicular and 31 marginal zone lymphoma patients.
Design
Single-arm, multicentre phase 2 trial at 15 centres in the USA and 2 in France of axicabtagene ciloleucel (single infusion of 2 x 10^6 CAR T cells per kg after fludarabine and cyclophosphamide conditioning) in adults with relapsed or refractory follicular or marginal zone lymphoma after two or more lines of therapy including an anti-CD20 antibody and an alkylating agent. Primary endpoint: overall response rate by independent review per Lugano classification, in the per-protocol population. 153 patients were enrolled and 148 were infused (124 with follicular lymphoma and 24 with marginal zone lymphoma).

Median-only curves assume a constant hazard (exponential) and fit plateaus, as seen with some immunotherapies, poorly.
