The 59th Annual Meeting & Exposition of the American Society of Hematology (ASH) took place in Atlanta, GA, on December 9–12, 2017. On Monday December 11th, an oral abstract session was held on “Aggressive Lymphoma (Diffuse Large B-Cell and Other Aggressive B-Cell Non-Hodgkin Lymphomas)—Results from Prospective Clinical Trials: Immune-Based Therapeutic Approaches”. This session was moderated by Robert A Baiocchi, Ohio State University and Lode J Swinnen, Johns Hopkins University.
Abstract #577 was presented during this session titled “Primary Analysis of Juliet: A Global, Pivotal, Phase 2 Trial of CTL019 in Adult Patients with Relapsed or Refractory Diffuse Large B-Cell Lymphoma” by Stephen J. Schuster, Lymphoma Program, Abramson Cancer Center, University of Pennsylvania, and colleagues. In the summary below, data from the live session at ASH is used and therefore may supersede information in the pre-published Abstract.
The JULIET study demonstrated high durable responses in patients with R/R DLBCL treated with tisagenlecleucel. The authors concluded that this data should support global regulatory submissions for this treatment in 2018. CTL019 received breakthrough therapy designation for adults with R/R DLBCL on 18th April 2017 by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA).
