Background: Lisaftoclax is a novel, oral, highly selective, potent BCL-2 inhibitor in development. In an ibrutinib-resistant patient-derived WM xenograft/preclinical model, lisaftoclax + ibrutinib has a strong synergistic effect. This report provides updated efficacy and safety data of lisaftoclax-based therapies (including combinations with ibrutinib) in pts with WM. Methods: In this global, open-label, phase 1b/2 multicenter study, pts with WM were enrolled in 3 arms: Arm A (lisaftoclax) included BTKi-resistant/intolerant pts; Arm B (lisaftoclax + ibrutinib), treatment-naïve pts; and Arm C (lisaftoclax + rituximab), BTKi-naïve relapsed/refractory pts. Lisaftoclax was escalated from 400 to 1,200 mg using a modified toxicity probability interval design. A 3-day ramp-up was used for pts at high risk of tumor lysis syndrome (TLS). Objectives were efficacy, safety, and pharmacokinetics (PK) assessments (responses assessed per IWWM criteria). Results: As of January 25, 2024, 46 pts were enrolled and treated at doses of up to 1,000 (Arm A), 1,200 (Arm B), and 800 mg (Arm C; Table). The median (range) treatment duration was 11 (1-28; Arm A), 23.5 (1-34; B), and 11.5 (5-33; C) months. Objective response rates (PR, VGFR, CR) were: 41.7% (Arm A), 90.9% (B), and 37.5% (C). In Arm A, pts with wild-type CXCR4 (n = 7) had better overall response to lisaftoclax than the CXCR4^mut group (n = 3).No significant difference was observed between pts with/without CXCR4^mut in Arms B and C. In Arm B, 1 DLT (grade 3 clinical TLS due to preexisting renal impairment) was reported at 1,200 mg; 1 grade 3 laboratory TLS, primarily attributed to dehydration and concomitant symptomatic therapies, occurred at 1,000 mg; abnormal electrolytes resolved after 1 day of drug interruption, without recurrence. Grade ≥ 3 lisaftoclax-related AEs included neutropenia (15.2%), thrombocytopenia (4.3%), decreased leukocytes (4.3%), TLS (4.3%), anemia (2.2%), weight loss (2.2%), and septic shock (2.2%). Ventricular arrhythmia was not observed. One pt required dose reduction because of neutropenia. The MTD was not reached. Lisaftoclax + ibrutinib showed a PK exposure comparable to lisaftoclax or ibrutinib alone, indicating no potential drug-drug interactions. Conclusions: Lisaftoclax alone and combined with ibrutinib or rituximab was well tolerated and demonstrated measurable effects in pts with naïve or BTKi-treatment-failed WM.
