Ruxolitinib for the treatment of inadequately controlled polycythemia vera without splenomegaly: 80-week follow-up from the RESPONSE-2 trial
2018
Overview
RESPONSE-2 is a phase 3 study comparing the efficacy and safety of ruxolitinib with the best available therapy (BAT) in hydroxyurea-resistant/hydroxyurea-intolerant polycythemia vera (PV) patients without palpable splenomegaly. This analysis evaluated the durability of the efficacy and safety of ruxolitinib after patients completed the visit at week 80 or discontinued the study. Endpoints included proportion of patients achieving hematocrit control (< 45%), proportion of patients achieving complete hematologic remission (CHR) at week 28, and the durability of hematocrit control and CHR. At the time of analysis, 93% (69/74) of patients randomized to ruxolitinib were receiving ruxolitinib; while in the BAT arm, 77% (58/75) of patients crossed over to ruxolitinib after week 28. No patient remained on BAT by week 80. Among patients who achieved a hematocrit response at week 28, the probability of maintaining response up to week 80 was 78% in the ruxolitinib arm. At week 80, durable CHR was achieved in 18 patients (24%) in the ruxolitinib arm versus 2 patients (3%) in the BAT arm. The safety profile of ruxolitinib was consistent with previous reports. These data support that ruxolitinib treatment should be considered also as a standard of care for hydroxyurea-resistant/hydroxyurea-intolerant PV patients without palpable splenomegaly.
