The ECOG-ACRIN E1910 study assessed the benefit of blinatumomab for BCR::ABL1 negative B-lineage acute lymphoblastic leukaemia (ALL) patients who become measurable residual disease negative (<0.01%) after induction chemotherapy. In this touchONCOLOGY interview, we speak with Dr Mark Litzow (Mayo Clinic, Rochester, MN, USA) to discuss the findings of the study and their impact on the treatment paradigm for BCR::ABL1 negative ALL.
The abstract entitled ‘Consolidation Therapy with Blinatumomab Improves Overall Survival in Newly Diagnosed Adult Patients with B-Lineage Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia in Measurable Residual Disease Negative Remission: Results from the ECOG-ACRIN E1910 Randomized Phase III National Cooperative Clinical Trials Network Trial’ (Abstract #LB-1) was presented at ASH Annual Meeting, 10–13, December, 2022.
