Abstract

We present 5-year survival results in patients with R/R LBCL from TRANSCEND NHL 001 (TRANSCEND), including data from the separate long-term follow-up (LTFU) study. Overall, 345 patients were leukapheresed, 270 received liso-cel, and 257 were efficacy evaluable. Among efficacy-evaluable patients, median overall survival (OS) was 27.5 months (95% confidence interval [CI], 16.2‒47.3; leukapheresed set, 15.2 months [95% CI, 11.5‒23.4]) with estimated 5-year OS rate of 38% (95% CI, 32‒45; leukapheresed set, 33% [95% CI, 28‒39]). Median disease-specific survival (DSS; excludes deaths unrelated to disease progression) was 67.8 months (95% CI, 23.5‒not reached [NR]; leukapheresed set, 27.4 months [95% CI, 14.4‒69.7]) with estimated 5-year DSS rate of 52% (95% CI, 45‒59; leukapheresed set, 47% [95% CI, 41‒52]). Among efficacy-evaluable patients from TRANSCEND who were alive at end-of-study and enrolled in the LTFU (n=84), median OS and DSS were NR (95% CI, NR‒NR) and estimated 5-year OS and DSS rates were 78% (95% CI, 67‒86) and 92% (95% CI, 84‒97), respectively. Most deaths occurred ≤2 years after infusion; no new safety signals were observed with low rates of late severe infections and second primary malignancies. These data support the curative potential of liso-cel in patients with R/R LBCL. Clinicaltrials.gov: NCT02631044, NCT03435796.
