7 2017 FDA Approvals The U.S. Food and Drug Administration today approved Mylotarg (gemtuzumab ozogamicin) for the treatment of adults with newly diagnosed acute myeloid leukemia whose tumors express the CD33 antigen (CD33-positive AML). On April 28, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved the addition of the targeted therapy midostaurin (Rydapt ) for adults receiving chemotherapy for newly diagnosed acute myeloid leukemia (AML) with certain mutations in the FLT3 gene.

8 Vyxeos (daunorubicin and cytarabine) ; Jazz Pharma; For the treatment of newlydiagnosed therapy-related AML or AML with myelodysplasia-related changes, Approved August 2017 IDHIFA (enasidenib); Celgene; For the treatment of relapsed or refractory acute myeloid leukemia with IDH2 mutation, Approved August 2017

9 CAR-T

10 On August 30, 2017, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved a type of immunotherapy called CAR T-cell therapy for certain children and young adults with a form of acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). The treatment, tisagenlecleucel (Kymriah ), is the first CAR T-cell therapy to receive FDA approval. ASH 2017 Special Session on CAR-T: Dec. 9, 4-5:30pm

15 Abstract Information MRD detection in AML by PCR is restricted to specific genetically-defined subsets of AML only NGS allow for the assessment of a broader range of disease-related gene mutations in a single assay It s unknown which pre-existing somatic mutations after induction therapy contribute to AML relapse NGS performed to look at 54 genes frequently mutated in myeloid malignancies at diagnosis and morphological CR Primary Endpoint: Relapse (Cumulative Incidence of Relapse (CIR) Secondary Endpoint: Overall Survival

16 Results 89.2% AML patients had somatic mutations at diagnosis 54% at CR DTA mutations (DNMT3A, TET2, ASXL1) alone not associated with increased relapse DTA mutations with any other persisting mutation corresponded to increased relapse 5 year CIR 39.4% vs 76.4% Multivariable Analysis of 430 AML patients, NGS MRD was independently prognostic for relapse and survival

19 Results 31 patients received Aza off protocol After relapse 9 went on to Allo After censoring out the Allo patients there was an OS of 83 vs 64% Both DFS and OS improved with maintenance Azacitidine

20 886 Role of Remission Status and Prior Transplant in Optimizing Survival Outcomes Following Allogeneic Hematopoietic Stem Transplantation (HSCT) in Patients Who Received Inotuzumab Ozogamicin (INO) for Relapsed / Refractory (R/R) Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia (ALL) Program: Oral and Poster Abstracts Type: Oral Session: 612.

21 Abstract Information Inotuzumab Ozogamicin (INO) is an anti CD22 antibody conjugated to calicheamicin 2016, Kantarjian, NEJM When should INO be used in R/R ALL Patients with respect to transplant? Analysis population consisted of R/R ALL patients enrolled and treated with INO and proceeded to Allo-SCT as part of 2 trials

22 Results Conclusion: Administration of INO in R/R ALL patients followed by Allo-sct provided Best long term survival benefit among Those who went directly to HSCT after attaining remission and had no prior HSCT
