Background: Patients (pts) with CLL are at elevated risk of developing non-hematologic malignancies. Radiation therapy (RT) is a critical component of management in localized solid organ malignancies. Novel agents (NA) are widely used in CLL treatment; however, safety data are lacking to guide treatment of pts requiring concurrent RT and NA. Methods: We identified pts treated concurrently with NA for CLL and RT for second primary malignancy (SPM) at Mayo Clinic from 2014-2022. Adverse events within 3 months of RT were evaluated using the International Workshop on Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia (iwCLL) criteria for hematological toxicity and the Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) version 5 for non-hematological toxicity. Patients without seamless, concurrent treatment with NA and RT were excluded. Results: Twenty-six pts were included. NA therapy consisted of ibrutinib (n = 23), acalabrutinib (n = 2), and venetoclax (n = 1). Median follow up time since RT completion was 1.5 years. The median age at NA initiation was 67 years (range:46-85) and at RT start was 68 years (range: 51-85); 92% of pts were male. NA was first treatment in 23% of pts; the median number of prior lines of therapy was 1 (range: 0-4). IGHV was unmutated in 82% and TP53 aberration was present in 24% of evaluable patients. SPM sites included prostate (n = 9), head/neck (n = 8), lung (n = 3), and brain, breast, bone, skin, kidney, and thymus (n = 1 each). The most common conventionally fractionated prescriptions (cGy/fx) were 6000/30 (n = 6) and > 6000-7020/20-33 (n = 7). SBRT ranged from 3300/5 to 5400/3 (n = 8). Five pts received other, varied RT prescriptions. Overall, 3 (12%) pts experienced at least one grade 3/4 toxicity. Grade 3/4 thrombocytopenia was observed in 2 (8%) pts and grade 3/4 neutropenia was observed in 2 pts per iwCLL criteria. Grade ≥3 non-hematological toxicities occurred in two pts that required hospitalization for critical illness, including 1 pt with grade 5 respiratory failure within 6 weeks after RT. Dose de-escalation of ibrutinib was reported in one case for pancytopenia attributed to use of a radiosensitizing agent. There were no cases of RT dose modification. Conclusions: Continuing NA CLL therapy during RT did not result in unexpected toxicities. This approach may maintain CLL disease control without compromising management of the SPM.
